Undecided
I absolutely LOVED this fun book! It’s freaking fantastic and for all of the reasons that we once fell head-over-heels in love with “New Adult” books. It’s got the “new adult” college insecurities, but with the engaging, smart and witty, yet VERY human characters. The mistakes made in search of having a good time, the consequences dictating their current outlook, their pasts that they are trying to overcome (but in this case… nothing TOO dark – just… “stuff” ya know? Stuff that we have ALL contended with). But best of all, it’s the awesome connection between all of the characters (old friends and new…). Lots of merging going on, but in a very organic, realistic way.

Reader Question… Solved! The book about the hero that dates her roommate, first…
Reader question day, and I’ve got a few for us that we can play with!! Regina just sent this one over. Since she’s actually read it, and wants to RE-READ it (but ca’t remember the title or author) she provides a lot of detail, so beware… I tried to spread it out with spoiler alerts between. Maybe the first paragraph will spark your memory from the start! 😀
She says:
“Hi,
I’m hoping you might have read this book and remember the title better than me (my Nook had a tragic accident involving 2 bengals, a dog and a catwheel, nook’s under warranty, but it didn’t back up my lists.) I think I read it between 2012-2014, could go either way by a year, and I’ve wanted to reread it. It was a New adult, college, romance…Very obviously there will be spoilers below, in hopes that you recognize the book. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
What To Read After Thoughtless
Thoughtless by S.C. Stephens (wow… the ultimate in angst, heartache, crazy, blood-boiling moments and swoonworthy heroes!)
<—- This book runs the gamut on what I love to read!
- Gorgeous coveted rock star? Check!
- Rock star secretly starts falling for sweet “normal” girl.Check!
- Lots of drama and angst (and I mean ANGST!!!) Check!
- Infuriating situations involving all of the main characters (yes, Denny, I’m looking at you!! You started it! Grrrr!).*woops* sorry ’bout that.
*ahem* Check! - Making foolish decisions (or serious indecision) for fear of hurting/angering/losing … someone (Yes. That’s right. I’m talkin’ ’bout love triangles.)
- Uncomfortable & surprising subject matter that had me emotionally reacting to the point that I felt it, physically? DOUBLE CHECK!
Oh yes… be forewarned. If you haven’t read this yet, this book goes there. This isn’t your usual “safe” love triangle that we so often find in our romance books. This is the whole shebang that will have you seeing red while simultaneously feeling guilty for enjoying it so much. So who wants more?
J.P. Barnaby – The Forbidden Room Series
Shelley just sent me this recommendation and I am intrigued!!!
The Forbidden Room – JP Barnaby and the follow on book A House Of Cards have had me in a funk for two weeks now!
I just cant get these characters out of my head. The character dynamic is incredible. The writing is addictive and the sex is full body blush worthy.
Now I know that this genre is not for every one, but I do know that you read and reviewed Kele Moon’s Eden series and these books are reminiscent but OMG I just loved them. Yes it’s BDSM but more B&D than S&M (thank god).
Book Review – Finding Home by Bonnie Dee and Lauren Baker
Finding Home
I’m an emotional book-zombie mess again!! I stayed up all night, reading this un-put-downable book. I ended up caring too much for a couple of characters that have both elated me, and disturbed me (well, especially one in particular). They made me sad, made me happy, made me sigh with the sweetness, made me worry, made me say to myself over and over again… “Oh no. This is not good. This can’t be good in the long run. This is trouble.” And yet, I loved it.
