This was my first read from Logan Chance and since this was a novella I was very sad and am going to be purchasing more of his books. Date Me was funny, sexy, arousing, upsetting and all around awesome!

Erik needs to find a date for his ex's wedding and I love this way of telling this kind of story. I know some of us have seen this type of story come around but Logan adds a little bit of craziness that I did not expect to happen. I was absolutely certain that this story would end completely different than what happened but that made this book so much more because of the different ending.

Everyone has that friend or sibling that wants to help because they think they know what is right and I loved Logan's way of changing things around. I was quite confused for a little bit with Erik but once everything was explained, being a woman, I could not believe I did not see that coming! Way to go Logan on this hot read! I can't wait to go back a read more of this series and more from you!

His to Cherish (Fireside #3) by Stacey Lynn

Can two hearts entwined by hardship move on to form a healthy bond? From the author of His to Love and His to Protect, this tender, bittersweet romance brings together a man who loses everything—and a woman with everything to give.

Chelsea Dwyer arrives home from her job at the middle-school library in Latham Hills, Michigan, expecting another quiet evening—until she hears the screams for help through her living room window. As the first witness to a terrible accident involving two local students, Chelsea doesn’t anticipate how her own life will be irrevocably changed by the father of one of the boys. In the wake of tragedy, she’s the only one who seems to understand his grief. Chelsea’s a survivor, too—and she knows that there are brighter days ahead.

As a single father, Aidan Deveraux worked his entire life to provide a stable home for his son, Derrick. Without him, Aidan feels the deepest despair imaginable. The one thing that keeps him going is his connection with the woman who tried to save his son. Hard as he tries, Aidan just can’t stay away. Chelsea’s warm embrace is the comforting solace he desperately craves—and it doesn’t hurt that Aidan had noticed the beautiful librarian and wanted to ask her out for years. Now that she’s in his life, he doesn’t ever want to let go.

*Gifted to me by Stacey in her reader group, Stacey's Sultry Readers.

When you read a Stacey Lynn book you feel the emotion and the depth of pain/joy each character is feeling throughout the book. I have been attached to characters and loved them but no of them compared to what I experienced reading this book.

This book was so much more to me than a book, it was a book of hope to me personally. I love Chelsea and the person she was and even more the person she became through everything. My story is not like Chelsea's but I feel this connection with her through what she was thinking and my frame of mind. I felt like her words were exactly how I feel.

I hope to NEVER feel what Aidan goes through during this book, but I hope anyone that does or has can read this book and feel the growth in Aidan to help them overcoming their struggles. I will say that I felt like slapping Aidan a few times, which after you read this book you will agree with me. But I LOVED this story!!

My stomach is in knots after reading this emotional, heart warming and gut wrenching story. This has been hands down the best read I have had the chance to read from Ms. Lynn! Thank you for giving me such an overwhelming book that I connected with in such a soul deep level. I am patiently waiting for your next read.....for now.

I am so glad I had both books so I could go from one book to the other without waiting for a release! What a cliffhanger we were left with in Quake!

My heart was with Janny and going through all the craziness that she went through with Kyle. Parts of what she goes through made me angry and I understand why they went the way they did because without that the ending would not have had the impact it did with how she overcomes everything.

Kyle ripped my heart a few times and I wanted to slap the crap out of him many times, but there is an understanding to why he does what he does also.

I am a really big fan of the Chance Brothers now and these were two incredible books that I got to read and I can't wait for more!! Congrats Jacob on this crazy good read!!

From the first moment I saw Janny Moore's sparkling eyes and luminous smile, I've been obsessed with the idea of getting to know her...
watching.

She's everything I need in my life, now I just have to convince her.
She's never set eyes on me, she has no idea I exist...
but she will.

Librarian Note: This book is Part 1 of a series and ends with a cliffhanger. The next book is 'Quiver'.

Holy cow was I so blown away by this book! I really thought it was creepy at first but after the creepiness went away all that was left what desire! Kyle was a little pervy at first and that threw me off for a few chapters but this book was gifted to me in a giveaway and reading some of the teasers I could not pass up my chance to read this book! This was my very first Jacob Chance read and I will say I was very needy after this read and I cried because I needed to read the next book! OMG THE CLIFFHANGER!!

For me its a little difficult to try new authors out once I have found my favorites but I have seen the brothers names all of my news feed and wanted to read their books. Janny really upset me during this first book but by the freaking amazing cliffhanger I wanted to apologize to her for the awful things I said about her. I am so glad I took a chance on these brothers because just by reading Jacob's first book I am hooked! I went out and purchased the rest of the books they have for sale because I am so in love with the way Jacob has written this book! What a great way to introduce yourself Jacob because this was HOT!

After having to flee her family home in New Zealand at age eight, Alaina Vance knows very little about her parents. She now lives an uncomplicated life—in her final year of college—with her hardest decision being what drink to order.

Is it too late once he does? 
Has Vicky already moved on? 
Tired of all the secrets that almost broke her, she has every reason to be upset. But under it all, there’s no one quite like Blake fucking Rendon.

I didn't start reading any of Ms. Jones' books from the beginning so going back to see where you meet Alaina, Vicky and Blake put all the books into order for me. Seeing what these men and women went through at the beginning of their friendships and relationships blew me away! I knew Ms. Jones could write and express so much emotion through her stories but talk about HOT and PASSIONATE!

I am a very big Amo Jones fan and to say that I was thrown back into a wall, pushed and shoved with emotions for these amazing characters does not even come close to describing what they went through and how I was pulled along. I can not and will never get enough of Amo Jones' books and I can not wait to see where she takes us next time. Ms. Jones these characters are becoming apart of my soul and I nearly broke several times during this box set! I love you for all of the pain though and congratulate on an outstanding job of writing greatness!

This author is quickly becoming one of my favorites; it excites me because I don't know her books well enough to know what to expect and she delivers amazing work every time! I was blown away by Catching Butterflies and after reading Catching Fireflies I was left in awe because of the choices that were taken throughout the book. I love second chance books and this book was filled with second chances or missed chances and Chance the sexy football player who was burned at an early age. Chance was raised by his dad, who himself was burned by his wife and lives with it everyday. After reading that I was left devastated because I knew that Chance would believe all woman to be as is mother was, a runner. Luckily he met the love of his life in high school...or so he thought.

Brie was a young girl who was raised by doctors and she knew she had to deliver the best in everything she did, even boys. Brie meets an incredible guy but the butterflies she felt quickly fell away when she told him something about herself that made him change his mind about their relationship. After one phone call could all that change the past and rekindle what felt right?

Like I said, I am a major fan of second chances and this book had me swooning and holding my husband tight with the love flowing through me. I have read quite a lot of endings and I have to say that this was one of my favorites! I love how Ms. Laine intertwines fireflies with these characters and makes for one of the best endings I have read yet. I didn't just fall in love with Chance or Brie but I fell in love with each character from Lenny to Kelley and I even became a fan of Sawyer. I really really need Sawyer and Ashton's story though because I am dying to find out what is going on with those two! Great work Ms. Laine and congrats on this awesome new release!

F*CKER (Westbeach #2) by Amo Jones

Written as a standalone
Ryker Oakley only cared about three things during school —fighting, his band, and getting laid. When he took it upon himself to ‘babysit’ Bryleigh Munroe, he didn’t expect her to be so much trouble, and he sure as shit wasn’t prepared for how fast she would grow on him. Fast-forward to eight years later, his band—Twisted Transistor—is the most successful rock group known to mankind. When his brother’s wedding brings the only girl he ever came close to caring about, back into his life, he discovers something he thought they had left behind in the past, had been destroying her daily.
Bryleigh Munroe was a popular girl at school, but because her father was a politically powerful man in the San Diego region, the boys either swore away from her or were trying too hard to get with her. She wanted one night. Quick and dirty. No strings. Only she didn’t expect Ryker Oakley to flip the script on her without her even realizing. Eight years later, Bryleigh still battles with the mistakes she made when she was younger. She’s had to deal with things that she shouldn’t have had to, all on her own.
After all this time has their bond remained silent? Can she forgive the torment Ryker inflicted on her? Or will the choices they made all those years ago force them to re-unite.

I think I am officially obsessed with this author because every time I read her books I get completely consumed by everything in the book I am reading. Everything in the world gets closed off for me and it feels like I am sitting near the people in the stories she tells. Especially this book had me right next to Bryleigh for the entire book, even if it switched to another person, and my stomach was aching around every different chapter wondering how things could have gone this way or that.

This read takes you back to what happened with Bryleigh and Ryker all those years ago during high school and what happened between them for Ryker to not have her family invited to a certain event. Let me tell you I was LIVID when I read about the past that she was put through and no wonder Ryker didn't want them invited. I understood how Ryker was from reading Losing Traction but the way he reacted with Phoebe made me hope he wasn't guy I had pictured in my head. But, Ryker is well, Ryker and he has a hot head when it comes to Bryleigh.

This book was my everything for the past two days, and two days because I wanted to expand this book out as much as I could because I am in love with these characters. All things that include this band and the people they are connected to pulled me into their world and has me aching for more. Some crazy stuff happens throughout this book and not only did those things shock me but they left me speechless with many different emotions. Ms. Jones kept me sad, excited, turned on, disgusted, hurt, and I even laughed quite a bit with Indie and Phoebe at times. If you haven't read an Amo Jones book yet, I suggest you start now because they are dark but they are AMAZING!!

The Reason for Me by Prescott Lane

10/18/2016

Picture
Holt

She likes it quick and dirty.

I like orders and rules.

She hates small talk.

I hate to share.

She’s an open book.

I’m a closed dresser drawer.

She rides a Harley.

And that drives me f’ing nuts.

Annalyse and I have both lived in our own personal hells for half a decade. She’s learned to love the warmth, and I’m still consumed. But my new neighbor is stoking more than my libido these days. We agreed on only pleasure. But she changed the rules.

And now I’m not even sure what they are.

Maybe there’s a reason she found me that night, maybe there’s a reason I can’t stop thinking about her, maybe there’s a reason for the pain. Maybe not.

We all look for reasons in life. Reasons for death, love, pain. Why one thing happens and not another? It’s human nature. We’ve been looking for the meaning of life since the beginning of time. But maybe the reason for all of it — life, love, loss, heartache — is the curvy brunette living next door.

I find when a book makes me cry I have really felt the book deep in my soul. The last couple of Prescott Lane books I have read have left me in tears and I LOVE that about this author. You feel exactly what she wants you to feel and you grow with these characters. Every chance I get I will grab a Prescott Lane book because I know she will deliver EPIC books! Her latest The Reason For Me is greater than her last EPIC book and I LOVED Annalyse so much!!

Annalyse is a young writer who is house sitting for her sister because she recently sold her place she had with her husband and her sister is going traveling. The way Ms. Lane shows Annalyse's growth, strength, courage, and choice to be happy was my all time favorite thing about this book! Annalyse's life has had some tragic things happen but she is overcoming them in her own way. She meets Holt is a crazy way and you can tell the level of friendship that could happen would be awesome. But, Holt is closed off and he has his own tragic past he is dealing with in that way all men do, they don't.

My mind was BLOWN when I read many parts of this book that I was not expecting Ms. Lane to take this book that way. I applaud they way you made me feel every emotion they were feeling, when they were happy, aroused, closed off and I was even taken to the dark places when I knew they closed themselves off. I would absolutely love to see this turned into a movie but the level of epic this book emanates I would hate for a director to cut any part of this book out! Thank you for another EPIC book Ms. Lane!

A Love Letter to Whiskey by Kandi Steiner

10/16/2016

It’s crazy how fast the buzz comes back after you’ve been sober for so long.

Whiskey stood there, on my doorstep, just like he had one year before. Except this time, there was no rain, no anger, no wedding invitation — it was just us.

It was just him — the old friend, the easy smile, the twisted solace wrapped in a glittering bottle.

It was just me — the alcoholic, pretending like I didn’t want to taste him, realizing too quickly that months of being clean didn’t make me crave him any less.

But we can’t start here.

No, to tell this story right, we need to go back.

Back to the beginning.

Back to the very first drop.

This is my love letter to Whiskey. I only hope he reads it.

This was only my second read by Ms. Steiner and she had my full attention throughout the entire book! I started on a Saturday morning, taking breaks throughout the day, and finished Sunday morning because once you start this book you HAVE to keep going to find out what happens next! My poor stomach was in knots, my nails are completely gone because I was so anxious about this story and at one point I had to stop and talk to my husband about it because I was just broken by what I read. In this book you meet Brecks/ B and her best friend Jenna who are in high school and they meet a boy named Jamie and they become a friendship of three. You watch the pull and push, the heart break and heart mend of young love evolving into more but never finding the right time. Ms. Steiner takes you through their high school, college and after college years trying to understand how to love.

Ms. Steiner broke me many times and put me back together only to be broken a few chapters later. My heart was wrapped up into B and all she goes through, and at a young age what she has to face with her family was just overwhelming. I really had a love-hate relationship with B though and I wanted to scream, cry and punch her in the face many times while reading this book but I kept up hope that she would overcome herself and really understand what she felt. When I was reading about Jamie all I had for him was love, that was again until I got about half way through the book and wanted to throw my phone at the wall in disappointment. I had a strong case of whip lash with this book and I LOVED it! I will say that I was VERY disgusted during some parts of this book where there is cheating but I truly believe this book was written so well that I didn't bother me ask much as it could have.

You will not be able to put this book down until you finish because you will be so wrapped up in the story that your sanity depends on finding out how the story ends. I had to know and my head was so torn from what happened before the end I started to cry because I just knew it wasn't ending how I wanted it to end, Ms. Steiner you wrote one heck of a book!!

Tonic by Staci Hart

Joel Anderson doesn’t take anything seriously.

Not his relationships, which have been few and far between since his brutal divorce. Not the drama of working in a tattoo parlor, which seems to be around every corner. When things get him down, he smiles and cracks a joke. But he’s not the kind of man you cross, or you’ll find yourself at the wrong end of his fists.

Annika Belousov takes everything seriously.

Like her job as a reality television producer, given that she typically has something to prove. Or her love life, which is defined by a series of requirements — affluent, ambitious, accomplished, to name a few. Definitely her family, who worked their whole lives to afford her every opportunity, a sacrifice she doesn’t take lightly. When she’s tapped to produce a reality show at Joel’s shop, she doesn’t think twice, just goes in for the kill, as if there were any other way.

The second Annika walks into Joel’s shop, he makes it his mission to crack her open, but she’s not having it. He’s all wrong — too crass, too hairy, too un-serious. But it doesn’t take her long to find out there’s more to him than smirks and tattoos. And what she finds could put her career and his heart on the line.

Not that Joel cares. Because for the first time in a long time, he’s found his tonic.

Every time I read one of Ms. Hart’s amazing books I get pulled into the world she has created and I feel every emotion that these characters are experiencing. We are brought into the world of tattoos and reality TV coupled with the drama of the behind the scenes of reality TV. Annika is a TV producer who has iced her heart over because of the harsh things she has had to do in her daily job. Annika and her boss Laney are in charge of a new reality show based on a tattoo shop’s owner Joel, his brother Shep, and their crew at the shop. Annika has some life changing decisions to make throughout most of the book and had my heart attached to her and the decisions she made.

My emotions ran from angry to deeply depressed and then bawling my eyes out in a sad way to bawling my eyes out in a happy way. My love for these characters was so deep I think I cried for majority of this book just out of pure love for them and the hope I was struggling to hang onto. I really thought I was not going to like Annika by the first couple of chapters because I immediately fell for Joel and his charm, but by the end of the book I understood where she was coming from and why she did the things she did throughout the book. I felt many different things about each character in Tonic from the new characters and even a familiar face had my stomach in knots by the end. Whether you meant to make me cry or not Ms. Hart this was one amazing cry for me and I will be feeling this one for a while. Congrats on this heartwarming 5 star read!
