Brutally Beautiful
Pure entertainment from start to finish. So good, cleverly written and it mostly had it all. Great story flow, intense tension between two adults (strangers) that can’t stand each other at first (with good reason!), but have that undeniable pull, despite their resistance. Big time secrets and tragic pasts (but wait, you’ll see! <— the craziness!) that ruled their current lives. Adrenaline-inducing parts with a twist-reveal (or two), a small entourage of loving family and friends and… a strip club. 😛 Fun times!

Wow I wasn’t expecting Saving Grace (book#2 in the Mad World series) to be released so soon after book #1, but I am thrilled it’s here!
Remember my review for that bad-boy, rock star/paranormal’ish book —-> “Fall From Grace“? The girl looking for the one man… the only man… she thought once captured her heart. Her soul mate. Until she meets “Shane”, the local bad-boy rock star, and her goal hits a bump in the road when she develops feelings for him, too? I said it had a sort of… “Thoughtless/Beautiful Disaster” feel to it, but the paranormal spin really took me by surprise.
Book Review – Fall From Grace by Christine Zolendz
Fall From Grace
Okay well. *hrmph* Hrmmm… Finished it. Loved it… and yet I was left feeling a bit… hesitant. I’ll try to explain why, without spoilers.
After my *pre-squee* in my recent “currently reading” post, I can say that that 90% of this one lived up to my “Beautiful Disaster feel” needs. It just kept getting better and better, and more intense as it went, and I was thrilled. Delighted! My heart clenched, I was exasperated and yet not overwhelmingly so, just enough to feel the tension and emotion, and to enjoy the drama. The heartfelt/slightly anguished/dreamy hits kept coming, and that’s the way I like it. A “falling for him, but…” fight to the finish.
