Book Review: The score Elle Kennedy

The Score (Off-Campus, #3)The Score by Elle Kennedy
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

January 14- 17

He knows how to score, on and off the ice

Allie Hayes is in crisis mode. With graduation looming, she still doesn’t have the first clue about what she’s going to do after college. To make matters worse, she’s nursing a broken heart thanks to the end of her longtime relationship. Wild rebound sex is definitely not the solution to her problems, but gorgeous hockey star Dean Di-Laurentis is impossible to resist. Just once, though, because even if her future is uncertain, it sure as heck won’t include the king of one-night stands.

It’ll take more than flashy moves to win her over

Dean always gets what he wants. Girls, grades, girls, recognition, girls…he’s a ladies man, all right, and he’s yet to meet a woman who’s immune to his charms. Until Allie. For one night, the feisty blonde rocked his entire world—and now she wants to be friends? Nope. It’s not over until he says it’s over. Dean is in full-on pursuit, but when life-rocking changes strike, he starts to wonder if maybe it’s time to stop focusing on scoring…and shoot for love
NEW ADULT 18+

Quotes-
Whatcha making?” I call out to Tucker. “Soup,” he calls back. “And baking some bread.” I sigh. “Sometimes I worry about him,” I tell Allie. “The more domestic he gets, the bigger the risk of his penis falling off.” She tsks in disapproval. “Sexist bastard.” “I think you mean sexy bastard,” I say helpfully. “No, I got it right the first time.”

Life hack: if you don’t want someone asking you questions, say the word tampon, and the conversation ends.”

“surprised his head doesn’t spin and his eyeballs don’t bug out. “Um.” His gaze bounces around the bathroom like a rubber ball. He looks at the towel rack, where his cargo pants are hanging. He looks at the bathtub, where I’m lounging like Cleo-fucking-patra. He looks at the bubbles surrounding my body like a fluffy white cloud. And then he looks at Winston. “Dude,” I blurt out. “It’s not what it looks like.” “Nope, nope, nope, I don’t want to know!”

I told you, my dad made sure I knew self-defense.” “Well, kudos to your dad for making sure you could protect yourself. Followed by a fuck you to your dad for turning you into a deadly weapon.”

Book Review: The deal elle Kennedy

The Deal (Off-Campus, #1)The Deal by Elle Kennedy
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

January 11-13

She’s about to make a deal with the college bad boy…

Hannah Wells has finally found someone who turns her on. But while she might be confident in every other area of her life, she’s carting around a full set of baggage when it comes to sex and seduction. If she wants to get her crush’s attention, she’ll have to step out of her comfort zone and make him take notice…even if it means tutoring the annoying, childish, cocky captain of the hockey team in exchange for a pretend date.

…and it’s going to be oh so good.

All Garrett Graham has ever wanted is to play professional hockey after graduation, but his plummeting GPA is threatening everything he’s worked so hard for. If helping a sarcastic brunette make another guy jealous will help him secure his position on the team, he’s all for it. But when one unexpected kiss leads to the wildest sex of both their lives, it doesn’t take long for Garrett to realize that pretend isn’t going to cut it. Now he just has to convince Hannah that the man she wants looks a lot like him.

Review- I loved loved this book it was cute and very funny . Hannah gets suckered into tutoring Garrett in trade he has to help her get the attention of Justin a guy in her class . Garrett annoys Hannah but she’s attracted to him she ends up kissing him and then they hook up and Garret starts to fall for Hannah . Garrett and Hannah have been through a lot Hannah was raped when she was 15 and it’s caused her some problems over the years like she doesn’t drink in public but she trusts Garrett and lets her guard down . Garrett’s father is just an abusive asshole who is a hockey legend he ends up threatening Hannah that if she doesn’t break up with him he’ll cut Garrett off and that’s what she does and it broke my heart to read because she so in love with him but that jackass worms his way but Garrett doesn’t take no for a answer and ends up telling any guy that there not allowed to touch Hannah and then she tells him the truth I loved this book it made me laugh out loud I loved the characters so funny and adorable .

Quotes-
“Sometimes people sneak up on you and suddenly you don’t know how you ever lived without them

“He shakes his head in amazement. “Your voice is…fuck, Wellsy, it’s beautiful.” My cheeks heat up. “You think so?” His impassioned expression tells me he’s dead serious. “Play something else,” he orders. “Um. What do you want to hear?” “Anything. I don’t care.” I’m startled by the intensity in his voice, the emotion now glittering in his gray eyes. “I just need to hear you sing again

“Say it,” he orders. “Say what?” I use the corner of his blanket to wipe the moisture staining my cheeks. “Say Garrett Graham, you are a sex god. You have achieved what no other man ever has. You—” I punch him in the shoulder. “Oh my God, you’re such a jerk. I will never, ever say those words.” “Sure you will.” He smirks at me. “Once I’m through with you, you’ll be shouting those words out from the rooftops.”

Book Review: playing for keeps J.C GRANT

Playing for Keeps (Playing For #1)Playing for Keeps by J.C. Grant
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

September 23-October 13

WARNING: THIS IS AN EROTIC NOVEL. If you do NOT like dominant, possessive, very Alpha-males, Playing For Keeps is not for you.

Living in LA and dating celebrities wasn’t what it was cracked up to be. I found out the hard way many had a lifestyle I wanted no part of.

Then David Taylor forced his way into my life. A sledge hammer breaking down my well crafted walls.

He was gorgeous and sexy and intimidating. I was drawn to him in a way I had never been to anyone or anything. And I knew I couldn’t have him, I was too damaged, too flawed to really connect.

David saw what I was from the beginning. A broken scared girl locked away inside an aloof woman. And he was determined to free me. To make me his.

Review- I loved this book it is an erotic novel so be warned when you read it Austin meets David at the grocery store he becomes obsessed with her and ends up tracking her down they end up hooking up at the club. They both have been through allot of shit and I love them together then we find out David was a famous baseball player and Austin has a rule about them but then David takes her out on a date and I love them they are both so insecure but they find a way to be together . He asks Austin to move in together for two weeks and they do and they end up having crazy sex many times like wow 😉 but it was so romantic and intimate . David is a little crazy sometimes he ends up looking through her phone many times which was a little odd we find out Austin was raped as a kid and oh my god . But the ending was one of my favorite parts they officially move in together Austin loves David so much and he asks her to marry him and she at first thinks its crazy but then says yes I loved this book .
Quotes-I tried to take it slow, give you time to wrap your head around this. But I’m done playing nice… I’m taking what I want. I’m taking what’s mine,” he growled harshly behind my ear

You’re mine to take care of. To make sure you feel safe and secure. To make sure you’re happy, and I take it fucking seriously.”

Book Review: The last Olympian Rick Riordan

The Last Olympian (Percy Jackson and the Olympians, #5)

The Last Olympian by Rick Riordan
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

January 6- August 7

Summary- All year the half-bloods have been preparing for battle against the Titans, knowing the odds of victory are grim. Kronos’s army is stronger than ever, and with every god and half-blood he recruits, the evil Titan’s power only grows. While the Olympians struggle to contain the rampaging monster Typhon, Kronos begins his advance on New York City, where Mount Olympus stands virtually unguarded. Now it’s up to Percy Jackson and an army of young demigods to stop the Lord of Time.

In this momentous final book in the New York Times best-selling Percy Jackson and the Olympians series, the long-awaited prophecy surrounding Percy’s sixteenth birthday unfolds. And as the battle for Western civilization rages on the streets of Manhattan, Percy faces a terrifying suspicion that he may be fighting against his own fate.

Review – This was a great finale to the series I loved this book so we start off with Rachel and Percy and then we see Blackjack and Becondorf and they go on the princess amdromna and of course Becondorf sacrifices himself and dies . And then Percy sees Tyson and his father and who looks terrible and then Percy goes back to camp . And Percy has to tell everyone that Becondorf didn’t make it even the guys girlfriend and Selena . This book had allot of funny lines even with all the death and Percy gets to hear his prophecy finally what I wanted to yell at percy about is he didn’t get why Annabeth was always so mad at him cause she likes you idiot and your talking to another girl if I was her I’d probably punch percy into understanding . So Percy and Nico go and Nico tricks him and he goes to see his dad ugh Nico but he gets out. And the war is starting and everyone from camp but the aries cabin is there cause clarise was being stupid and doesn’t want to fight . And Percy is having all these dreams and rachel writes his name in greek and she goes to see percy and NYC is asleep . And Rachel tells that he isn’t the hero that someone else is so there fighting all these monsters and percy took a swim in the river styx and he thought about Annabeth and when they were on the bridge Annabeth got poisoned she was fine in all and I loved when Percy and Annabeth would just talk and she would just wanted to talk about them but Percy wouldn’t get it . And then Percy was trying to get his dad to help out and he did eventually and I loved his parents helped out his mom fired a shot gun and his step dad stabbed a monster . And we find out who the spy is it’s Selena I didn’t see it coming she died going against a drakon . And she was posing as Clarise and the aries campers do come and Clariese was crying cause they were friends and then comes the big fight with Kronos . and Annabeth gets Luke to come out of him and he is like did you love me and she’s I loved you like a brother . there was a ton of other stuff in this book with Lukes mom she lost her mind she tried to be the oracal but didn’t know that it was cursed by Hades . Luke ends up killing himself Poseidon shows up and helps out and then they go to olympus and Percy is offered to be a god but he turns it down he is like you are gods this shouldn’t of happened if you were more involved in your children’s lives so that’s what there going to do and build more cabins for more of the gods awesome and Rachel becomes the oracal . so percy and Annabeth talk and he’s trying to tell her his feeling for him and she kisses him awwww and then everyone is like finally and they have an underwater kiss this book was so great it was a great finale and I loved this series so much Percy and Annabeth eeek.

Favorite quotes
“She raised an eyebrow. “You got something to say to me, Seaweed Brain?”

You’d probably kick my butt.”

You know I’d kick your butt.”

I brushed the cake off my hands. “When I was at the River Styx, turning invulnerable . . . Nico said I had to concentrate on one thing that kept me anchored to the world, that made me want to stay mortal.”

Annabeth kept her eyes on the horizon. “Yeah?”

Then up on Olympus,” I said, “when they wanted to make me a god and stuff, I kept thinking-”

Oh, you so wanted to.”

Well, maybe a little. But I didn’t, because I thought-I didn’t want things to stay the same for eternity, because things could always get better. And I was thinking . . .” My throat felt really dry.

Anyone in particular?” Annabeth asked, her voice soft.

I looked over and saw that she was trying not to smile.

You’re laughing at me,” I complained.

I am not!”

You are so not making this easy.”

Then she laughed for real, and she put her hands
around my neck. “I am never, ever going to make things easy for you, Seaweed Brain. Get used to it.”

The throne rumbled. A wave of gale-force anger slammed into me.
WHO DARES-
The voice stopped abruptly, The anger retreated, which was a good thing, because just those two words had almost blasted my mind to shreds.
Percy. My fathers voice was still angry but more controlled. What-exactly-are you doing on my throne?
“I’m sorry, Father,” I said. “I needed to get your attention.”
This was a very dangerous thing to do. Even for you. If I hadn’t looked before I blasted, you would now be a puddle of seawater.”

The Council agrees,” Zeus said. “Percy Jackson, you will have one gift from the gods.”
I hesitated. “Any gift?”
Zeus nodded grimly. “I know what you will ask. The greatest gift of all. Yes, if you want it, it shall be yours. The gods have not bestowed this gift on a mortal hero in many centuries, but, Perseus Jackson-if you wish it-you shall be made a god. Immortal. Undying. You shall serve as your father’s lieutenant for all time.”
I stared at him, stunned. “Um…a god?”
Zeus rolled his eyes. “A dimwitted god, apparently. But yes. With the consensus of the entire Council, I can make you immortal. Then I will have to put up with you forever.”
“Hmm,” Ares mused. “That means I can smash him to a pulp as often as I want, and he’ll just keep coming back for more. I like this idea.”

Book Review : until the end Abbi Glines

Until the End (Sea Breeze, #9)Until the End by Abbi Glines
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

June 30-July 1

he backstory that fans have been clamoring for—how Rock and Trisha fell in love—is the final installment in the Sea Breeze series from New York Times bestselling author Abbi Glines. And don’t miss the sizzling Epilogue, where Abbi wraps up all the Sea Breeze couples’ stories!

Trisha Corbin always knew how to hide a bruise. With her momma’s boyfriends unable to keep their hands off of her, she had no choice. And as long as it meant the guys wouldn’t go near her little brother, Krit, it was worth it. But her days of dreaming that Prince Charming would ever come rescue her are far, far in the past.

Rock Taylor always had a plan. Through football, he would rise above the life he was born into. A full ride to play for a major college team was within his reach—assuming he didn’t let anything get in his way. But scoring a date with the hottest girl in Sea Breeze was proving harder than expected. Trisha Corbin was every man’s walking fantasy, and she wouldn’t even glance his way.

When Rock finally does get Trisha in his truck, it isn’t for a date. It’s because he picks her up on the side of the road, beaten and bruised and walking to the local hospital. Before Rock knows it, football is no longer his life. Trisha Corbin is. And he’ll do anything to save her. And keep her.

In addition to Rock and Trisha’s love story, this special novel contains the wrap-up stories of all your favorite Sea Breeze couples: Sadie and Jax, Marcus and Low, Cage and Eva, Preston and Amanda, Jess and Jason, Krit and Blythe, and Dewayne and Sienna.

Review – This was such a great wrap-up to the series so it starts out with Rock and Trisha and it goes back to when they were in high school it was interesting to see all the guys in high school like preston oh god love him and Marcus and Dewayne they are like a family and I love that so it talks about Rock and trisha is the present and the past the present with there kids and the past when they met and Rock had to mostly beg trisha to go out with him she didn’t want to deal with him cause she’s had a terrible home life . I loved how Rock took care of her he had football on the line but he loved Trisha so much and cared for her and that’s the kind of love you really want . But Trisha didn’t know how to react he was always with a girl but when they hooked up for the first time it was out of love and he wanted her to be safe she was getting beaten for so long which was terrible and Rock protected her and in the end everything worked out . And then we got to see everyone’s story end also it started with Sadie and Jax . They break up for a stupid reason Sadie was going to tell Jax she was pregnant but Jax dumped her cause he thought she kissed his drummer who was high at the time but she didn’t and oh my god I loved Jessica in this she was standing up for her daughter and helping her through this Jax came back and she forgave him cause they were in love and then they had rough sex 😉 . Marcus and willow’s story was interesting so Low is pregnant again with a girl so sweet Eli is three now oh and Tawney her evil sister left and Marcus’s parents are back together I loved the ending to there story . When Amanda finds a texts on Prestons phone from a girl she is freaking out and Marcus tries to murder Preston but it turns out it was a set up they get married but before they have wedding sex I wouldn’t be surprised . Jess and Jason jess is having some problems she pregnant and she doesn’t feel like she belongs she is always Jumping Jason to try to prove her love for him but they love each other and there engaged and happy there ending was so cute . Blythe and Krit’s story was funny and cute so Blythe published her book and she’s making allot of money now and Krit’s nervous that if he proposes she will think it’s cause of the money oh and Green hooked up with Matty’s cousin yeah not good . And Green really likes this girl’s hair LOL but when Blythe finds the ring she isn’t positive it wasn’t for her so she tells him and then she says yes aww so cute . Dewayne and Sienna’s story had me in tears when we find out she’s pregnant I was sobbing out of joy especially when Micah asked Dewayne if he could call him Dad and he cried and then I was crying loved it . Cage and Eva’s ending was cute with Bliss’s third birthday she is so like Cage it’s funny . I like the ending to everyone’s story when it ends 10 years later I was crying cause it couldn’t of had a better ending I loved this series it was allot of fun and I loved all these characters .

Quotes-
Just like magic, each one of us had had that someone special walk into our lives and love us enough to fight for us. Life is funny that way. Fate happens, and it’s better than what you had imagined in the first place.”

I feel sorry for this town when the York and Drake boys all had cars.

The the day she gets married . …. wait, no . That shit ain’t happening . No getting married . until she was , like maybe forty , or I was dead .

In a few months our lives would all change . We didn’t know what the future held , but we had each other . this was my family . The one I leaned on since I was a kid . I could have taken a much different road in life , growing up the way I did , but having these three guys who gave a shit out me changed that . Somehow we had stayed out of real trouble . Marcus had always been there to remind us to keep it clean and stay out of Jail . I was going to miss times like this . But had Trisha and my future would always have her in it . That made the future exciting instead of terrifying . Since the moment she sat at the lunch table , laughing with the three people in the world who I considered family , I had known she was it . She was my future

We need to figure it out before your brother kills your groom ,

Preston , back the hell up ! Marcus , stop and ask him first before you commit a murder .

Book Review: Hold on tight Abbi Glines

Hold on Tight (Sea Breeze, #8)Hold on Tight by Abbi Glines
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

June 28-30

Six years ago, Dewayne Falco’s life changed. He lost someone he never expected to lose. Resigned to punish himself for something he felt he could have prevented, he goes through life without getting too close to anyone.

What he didn’t expect was for the girl across the street to move back home and remind him of what they both lost: Dewayne’s younger brother Dustin. However, when a miniature version of Dustin opens the door to greet him, Dewayne realizes he might not have lost everything after all.

Sienna Roy loved Dustin Falco most of her life. He was the boy next door, the high school basketball star and her best friend. But when his life was cut short, she realized he left a part of himself behind.

Now, she’s back in Sea Breeze, thankful to have a home for her and Dustin’s son, but not sure if she can ever forgive the people across the street who abandoned her when she needed them the most — The Falcos.

Betrayal, lies, and forbidden attraction might end Dewayne and Sienna’s story before it’s even begun.

Review – Now these books keep getting better I was really excited to get into Dewayne’s story this involves Sienna who got pregnant with his younger brother’s baby and he’s also dead and her parents shipped her off I didn’t like her parents for that reason alone but now Sienna is back and she isn’t excited to see Dewayne one she sent letters a long time ago with pictures from her son’s life Micah is adorable he’s very protective of his mother and he’s only five when Dewayne see’s sienna again he’s shocked and startled and she isn’t very happy to see him cause she thought he knew but when she blurts it out he is more shocked and doesn’t know what to say but he wants to get to know Micah he introduces him to his parents / grandparents but only the dad knows so far cause Dewayne told him I loved the flashbacks from high school one thing Dustin was a dick totally different from Dewayne . Dustin got very drunk one night after having sex with a girl he had pregnant and Dewayne was knocking some sense into him and he drove drunk and that’s what got him killed . Sienna has liked Dewayne since she was fourteen and he helped her in high school Dewayne liked Sienna also but she thinks he can’t be the guy for him but when they kiss it kind of changes things and then they have phone sex wow *fans self * I was so happy that the grandparents got to be apart of Micah’s life they didn’t get those letters the stupid mother took them ugh I hate her when Dewayne and Sienna finally get together I was so happy and eek they get engaged aww I loved this story .

Quotes-
You’re one of the best men I know. You wear your tats and piercings and those damn leather bracelets that only you could get away with. But inside you are one big teddy bear. When someone you love needs you, there is nothing you won’t do for them. When I needed you, you were always there. I’ve never questioned your heart. It’s made of fucking gold, and we all know it. We laugh at your crude jokes and snide comments because we know they mean nothing. It’s part of your shield. Underneath, I don’t know many men that compare. You’re one of the best, Dewayne. One of the best.”

I couldn’t have written a more perfect ending to the story of my life . Because even with all those bad time and moments when I thought things couldn’t get worse , the good time and the moments of joy and the love was all so much more . they made it worth it . The journey may not be easy , but when you find the one to take it with , then you can do anything .

MisbehavingMisbehaving by Abbi Glines
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

June 22-27

Remember rock-star Jax Stone’s brother Jason from Breathe? Well now he’s got his own story to tell…
Jason’s had enough of living in his rock star brother’s shadow. So when he sets off to Sea Breeze, Alabama, he’s looking for a much deserved escape and a chance to blow of some envious steam. But falling for the local bad girl was definitely not the plan. And as the two enjoy some naughty fun in the Alabama sun, Jason learns that though Jax is the musician in the family, he too can just as easily rock someone’s world.

*****

Review – Now Jess wasn’t a character I didn’t think I would like but I did like her once I was in her head and Jason I love him he was stupid at times but I still loved him . So Jess and Jason meet in a very interesting way Jess was just done bashing her ex’s car and she was running with a bat and she sees a car and that’s how Jason and Jess meet and ever since then he couldn’t stop thinking about her he also didn’t know Jess was Rock’s cousin until they all met up at Live Bay . Jess takes Jason swimming ileagly of course and then Jason takes Jess to go skinny dipping and then they hook up very nice . Jason and Jess are from two different worlds Jason is rich and Jess her mom is a stripper . But they end up breaking up after a trip to NYC and then they get back together after awhile Jess gets a job as a seamstress she likes sewing . Jason ends up seeing her at live Bay with Krit the lead singer of Jackdown and they are together I knew they wouldn’t last they just liked hooking up with each other and Krit was obsessed with sex . But after awhile Jess realizes she can’t be with Krit and then she goes back to Jason and she is happy again she finds out her mom is sick and she has to get a job as a stripper and oh god I felt so bad for her Jason and her break up and Krit and Jason end up in a fist fight and then Jason saves her and helps out they love each other when they finally say it I was crying so hard . I loved this one and I love all the gilmore girls comparisons from Jess’s mom oh and I hated Jason’s mom what a bitch she tried to pay Jess to stay away from her son I would punch her in the face still a great story .

Quotes-

Either you two go to your room , or i’m going to throw ice water on you both , I told them.

“If guys don’t open doors for you, then they aren’t worth your time.

Krit’s gonna go apeshit,
Dewayne said in a singsong voice
Shut him up , I whispered to Rock.

Wanna dance ? I asked
No , Rock answered for him .
Hell yes , Dewayne replied
Stand up and I’ll make you sit down ,
Rock warned him.
Dewayne just laughed and took a drink.
What are you doing , Jess ? Rock asked
Drinking , then dancing , I replied with a smile I didn’t feel.
It’s not like you , he replied .
No. It’s exactly like me . This is me , Rock. I’m done pretending to be someone else . Now , Why can’t Dewayne dance with me ? I asked , turning to pout at Dewayne who looked amused. Stop flirting with Dewayne , Rock said , annoyed.
I’m enjoying it . Please , let her continue , Dewayne said.

He could teach a Seduction 101 class . Or on the fastest way to get a woman naked .
Hmm , maybe , but it’s cute , I teased .
Cute , huh ? Do I need to remind you of my sexiness ?
This time I laughed . Definitely not . I’m very aware .
Thought so . I’m hard to forget , he replied .

You’re going to kill me or drive me insane . I can’t seem to care . I’m looking forward to it , he said .

“I smashed all the windows in my ex-boyfriend’s truck.” “You did what?” I couldn’t have heard her correctly. That did not happen in real life. Country songs, yes. Real life, no way.

I had never expected to fall in love , but then , I never imagined anyone like Jess . She was one beautiful contradiction . The idea of letting someone else own my heart wasn’t appealing . It sounded weak and foolish . Something meant for the words of a song . I was wrong . When I thought about my future now , Jess was all that I could see , and that was all I needed . I couldn’t ask for more .

Book review:sometimes it lasts abbi glines

Sometimes It Lasts (Sea Breeze)Sometimes It Lasts by Abbi Glines
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

June 21-23

Cage York has to choose between a love of the game and a love of the girl in this sultry Sea Breeze novel from New York Times bestselling author Abbi Glines.
After waiting for his big break, bad boy Cage York is finally called up to prove his worth in the college baseball arena. But when Cage’s girlfriend, Eva, mourns the sudden loss of her father, it’s not Cage’s comforting arms she runs to, but those of her former fiancé’s twin brother, Jeremy.

Torn between his baseball dream and the girl of his dreams, Cage must prove he’s worthy of Eva’s love, or risk losing her to Jeremy forever.

Review- This book frustrated me more than any of the ones in the series I still loved it but it made my head hurt at times or I was yelling at the book . So we are back with Eva and Cage and as happy as I was about that WHY THE HELL DID THEY HAVE TO BREAK UP ? I mean really and the stupid baseball guys were douchbags who sets someone up for that it was stupid cause they were so happy .

Quotes –
Maybe he hadn’t seen me studying his ass like I wanted a bite . Because we both knew I was a fan of his backside

I’d hug you , But i gotta go work with your man today , and he’s watching me right now like he might need to come up here and beat my ass at any second .

Listen , bitch the only white trash in this room is the one who slept with a married man . An old married man at that . You call my man one more name and I will knock those ridiculously high heels out from under you. So back the hell off before you end up on you ass .

You need to run. Your ass may be bigger than me, but I can use a gun real damn good. So you’ve been warned. I’m coming after your motherfucking ass and I intend to put a bullet between your eyes.”

“Because I love you more than any goddamn thing on this fucking planet, I’m gonna let you have one more day. You just lost your daddy, and I’ll never forgive my- self for not being here with you. I’ll live my life regretting it. But I’ll be back. You’re mine, Eva Brooks. Always. You told me that yourself and, sweetheart, I’m holding you to it.

I worship the ground Eva walks on. I love her smile. I love the way she gets in a snit and her lips get all pinched up. I love the way she thinks she has to cook for me. I love the fact that she lets me butter her biscuit. I love the way she curls into me at night and lets me hold her. I also love how perfect it is when I’m making love to her. How I feel complete.”

Jeremy brought you halfway, but the rest is mine. I’ve had you the rest of the way.” He said as Jeremy handed me over and pressed a kiss to my cheek.
I looked up at Cage as he tucked my arm into his and bestowed me with one of his soul-stealing grins. “It’s time we start our always, Eva.”
I turned to face him. I stood on my tiptoes and pressed a kiss to his lips. Then I whispered, “We already have. We’ve been working on our always since you walked into my world with a cocky swagger and a smile.”

Book review: just for now Abbi glines

Just for Now (Sea Breeze, #4)Just for Now by Abbi Glines
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

June 20-21

An insatiable attraction heats to the boiling point in this steamy book set in the shore town of Sea Breeze from the author of the white-hot The Vincent Boys.

Preston is one bad boy. And Amanda has harbored a crush on him for forever. When she finally makes her move on him, it does not end well. But still, she can’t resist him. Especially now that he seems to be pursuing her, too.

No one wants wants them to be together. Not Amanda’s brother Marcus, who is on the verge of his marriage to Low, and definitely not any of Preston’s buddies. They know way too much about Preston’s dark side. Even Preston realizes he’s not good enough for someone like her.

But Amanda believes there is more to Preston than his bad boy persona, and she is determined to unearth what he’s hiding behind his seductive blue eyes—secrets that could explain his actions. Secrets Amanda might not be able to forgive.

Yet the dangerous attraction persists…and neither Preston nor Amanda is going to deny it

Review – Okay this is the one that had me on the edge of my seat the most okay So Amanda and Preston Hook up HOLY SHIT okay so Preston was drunk and they hooked up in the back of the club oh my god I was freaking out . And then Preston started having dreams of Amanda cause he’s been attracted to her for awhile . Amanda has been in love with Preston since she was sixteen and he didn’t even kiss her during sex oh my god I was freaking out . And Marcus and Low are engaged oh my god so happy for them . So Preston is a gigolo so he can pay for his siblings cause his mother is useless and if wanted to take them he couldn’t anyway . Amanda and him flirt allot and at allot of points I was like just be together damn it and when daisy his sister gets really sick and has to be taken to the hospitable Amanda steps in to help . And oh god I was so worried so when they have sex again this time it was way differnt and when Marcus found out I was so sure he was going to kill him all he did was punch him allot Amanda of course has been off limits best friends sister yeah probably shouldn’t go there but he did and all of his friends are like body guards for Amanda . When Amanda finds out he’s a gigolo she is so mad so upset there done when she gets a call from one of his brothers and the mother is dead and Preston didn’t get the call cause he was sleeping during the day cause he got a job as a bouncer Rock helped him get the job . Rock and Trisha help Preston with the kids and when Trisha and rock come to them about adopting the kids I was like yes oh my god yes so great when the wedding is happening She tells him she’s in love with him and he’s in love with her oh my god and it was such a great book.

Quotes-
He ain’t planning on talking to you. He’s planning on whooping your ass and then locking his sister up in her bedroom for the rest of her life . I just hope he ain’t got a gun on him.

“Hearts don’t realize they’ve been lied to. They still love anyway.

Book review : while it lasts abbi glines

While it Lasts (Sea Breeze)While it Lasts by Abbi Glines
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

June 18-20

Cage brings his playboy prowess to the countryside as the Sea Breeze hookups continue, from self-published phenomenon Abbi Glines.
Low broke Cage’s heart by getting with Marcus in Because of Low. Cage went into a tailspin that ended in a DUI. In order to salvage his baseball scholarship—the one thing he truly valued besides Low—Cage must take a summer job. At a farm. Away from Sea Breeze. With lots of cows, but no hot girls. Maybe that’s what Cage needs to get back on track.

But wait—there’s that hostile daughter of the farm boss. She’s pretty and occasionally sweet, and there seems to be a lot of sadness and mystery behind her anger. Cage is dying to strip her down—physically and mentally—in the back of the barn. But is he prepared for what will happen afterward?

Review- I loved this one I have a thing for bad boys yes Cage york is a big bad boy when he get’s a DUI and is sent with the country and meets Eva who hates him . Eva has been through allot her fiance / best friend was killed in the war and oh my god that letter he sent her made me sob so hard. Her and Cage have a love hate relationship they end up doing allot more than flirting in the lake oh my shit who knew a nipple ring was a thing I would find attractive 😉 when Eva gets freaking drunk one night she sleeps in Cage’s bed . Eva knows she has to go on with her life she took off her ring Jeremy her fiance twin is moving away she starts using her jeep she starts playing her guitar and everyone keeps telling her that Cage isn’t the type she should be with she ends up sleeping with him and her father threatens him and he has to leave everyone is wondering why Cage is so upset Low tells him to fight for her he goes back to her house Eva thought he just left but he says he loves her but she just stood there OH MY GOD EVA and then when Cage is about to leave the bar there is Eva singing him a song and I loved this book so much Eva and Cage are so cute . And in the End when she wrote that letter to Josh I was balling my eyes such a good ending .

Quotes-
Only problem with talking about licking with you is that it gives me ideas . I start thinking about things I shouldn’t be thinking about . Things that will only torment me ’cause I’ll never know just how sweet you taste . I ma be a lot of things , Eva may even be a few of them names you called me , but i’m not going touch what belongs to another man.

If you really want to talk about licking , I’ll happily oblige

Really ? well , thank you. I was under the impression you wouldn’t spit on me if I was on fire .

An Engaged lady shouldn’t be looking at another man like she wants to take a lick

“You see somethin’ ya want, baby?”
“Maybe. I’m checking things out. Seeing if I’m interested,” I shot back with my own evil grin.
“I see something I want,” he drawled as he came toward me.
“You do?”
“Hell yeah, I do,” he murmured. “I love chocolate.” What? My excitement turned to confusion. His arm reached out beside me and took the piece of chocolate cake I’d brought him.”

“You are such a bad boy.” She tugged on the hair that brushed my collar.
“I can be real bad. You haven’t seen anything yet,” I murmured, bending my head so I could take a nip at the soft skin at the back of her neck.
“I’m not sure I could keep up with you. I’m extremely inexperienced. We are in completely different planets when it comes to sexual experience,” her breathing was labored as I licked and kissed different sweet spots on her shoulders and collarbone.
“I didn’t say anything about sex, Eva,” I grinned before kissing her jawline. “You’re the naughty one who brought up sex.”

I understood that pain was real and sometimes things didn’t last. Sometimes you just had to enjoy it while it lasts and cherish it when it’s gone.”

Book Review: Because of Low abbi glines

Because of Low (Sea Breeze, #2)Because of Low by Abbi Glines
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

June 17-19
It’s steamy in the Gulf town of Sea Breeze. Physical attraction is the only way to beat the heat in this start to a series from bestselling, previously self-published author Abbi Glines.

Playboy Cage owns the apartment, and he hosts a revolving door of people, in and out, at all times. Most of them are long-legged hot girls who are never there more than a night or two. When Cage’s new roommate, Marcus, enters the picture, he’s just looking to nurse a broken heart. But there’s one particular semi-frequent regular who catches his eye.

Willow—“Low”—is the one Cage wants to marry. But the two of them are night and day, and Marcus can’t see how Low puts up with all of Cage’s womanizing. What she really needs is a real man….like good-looking and sensible Marcus. But that’s going to get real complicated and real messy—real fast.

Book review- This one is my favorite so far I loved hearing more about Marcus Hardy *Swoon* Marcus has come home because of family problems his dad cheated on his mom with a younger woman he works with . He’s living with a guy who sleeps with allot of woman Cage is an interesting Character Then we meet Low cage’s best friend who he tells people he’s going to marry her she comes to the apartment crying and she always sleeps in cage’s bed but she’s not attracted to him . Marcus likes low and one day when Low is watching Larrissa who is adorable Marcus kisses her awww and then they go out on a date and this girl jess is always causing problems but Low does tell her off finally . Marcus brings Low to meet his mom and his dad didn’t show of course cause he’s a dick and Low was very good with them all I hated Low’s sister she was a bitch and the baby daddy was twice her age . There was this scene where Low and marcus were getting very hot and heavy very nice *fan self* and he was doing something in the shower and low saw oh my freaking god . I really thought Cage was going to kill marcus when he found out but he didn’t I love Marcus and Low together they are good for each other but holy shit I did not see this coming Low’s sister is with Marcus’s dad which Makes Larrisa Amanda and Marcus’s sister ,holy shit and she goes to the house and comforts them and Marcus comes over and he thought she knew the entire time and broke up . Oh god so bad Low gets really sad but Marcus father tells him she didn’t know and Marcus goes to low and she forgives him but she can’t put her heart through that again I can see where she’s coming from . But Cage tells low to give him another chance and Marcus leaves Low a vintage concert t-shirt awww so sweet and then they get back together and make love and I loved this book so much .

Quotes-

I love you.” My heart almost stopped beating in my chest.
She hadn’t spoken those words since the last time I held her in my arms.
“And you did leave me. But… but you came back. No one’s ever come back. They leave me and that’s it. They want to leave me. You didn’t. And you came back.” I wanted to stand up and reach across the table and jerk her into my arms but I wasn’t sure I could stand up just yet. I needed to hear everything she had to say.
“Yes, I came back. My heart never left you.”
“I miss you.”
This time I stood up and walked around the table.
“I miss you. Every second of every day,” I whispered. Her eyes followed me until I was inches from her.
“I trust you.”
I needed more than that.
“You trust me,” I repeated.
She nodded and her hand came up and caressed the side of my arm.
“I want to try again.”
Those were the words I needed to hear.”

Marcus , Please . The hand froze . I opened my eyes and started directly up into Cage’s face . Did you just call me Marcus ?

Marcus Hardy was straight out of those gushy romance novels .

I’m not done here . I’m just beginning , Low . But I couldn’t walk away again without that kiss.

Book Review: Breathe abbi glines

Breathe (Sea Breeze #1)Breathe by Abbi Glines
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

June 15-17
Sadie White’s summer job is at the beach, but she won’t be working as a lifeguard. Since her mom is pregnant and refuses to work, Sadie will be taking over as a domestic servant for a wealthy family on a nearby island.

When the family arrives at their summer getaway, Sadie is surprised to learn that the owner of the house is Jax Stone, one of the hottest teen rockers in the world. If Sadie were normal—if she hadn’t spent her life raising her mother and taking care of the house—maybe she’d be excited about working for a rock star. But she’s not.

Even though Sadie isn’t impressed by Jax’s fame, he is drawn to her. Everything about Sadie fascinates Jax, but he fights his attraction: Relationships never work in his world, and as badly as he wants Sadie, he believes she deserves more. Yet as the summer stretches on, Jax’s passion leaves him breathless—and Sadie feels like the only source of oxygen.

Can their love overcome the disparity in their lifestyles? One breath at a time, they’re going to find out.

Review – I loved this book this story was so cute this book is about Sadie and because her pregnant mother can’t work she takes a job to work in a famous teen stars home . Jax can’t wait to get away from the spotlight for a few months and then he meets sadie and he can’t stay away no matter how he tries . There were allot of characters I loved Marcus *swoon alert* those Alabama boys 😉 and right when Marcus is about to ask Saddie out Jax comes out and offers her a ride and she goes with him she knows it won’t last but it doesn’t stop her heart and how she feels about Jax . Saddie meets a new friend Amanda who turns out to be Marcus’s younger sister . when Jax takes Sadie out to there own private movie things get allot hot and heavy wow 😉 when Marcus tells her about Jax’s “girlfriend” she gets upset and then Marcus kisses her HOLY CRAP ! I thought Sadie and Marcus would be good together if jax didn’t exist but you can’t help who you fall for other characters I loved were Marcus’s friend Preston who was obviously hitting on Sadie allot and Marcus would usually punch him LOL . And Mrs . Marry who was mostly a mother figure to Sadie . When Sadie and Jax go to a party and then go back to his room and it gets hot and heavy again wow *blushes * oh and when they shower together wow that was wow and when they finally have sex it was so beautiful but sexy . When people find out about Sadie and Jax they break up and Sadie goes into a depression her mom has the baby Sam and her mom oh my god she wouldn’t even hold him Sadie ends up falling on her bike and cracking her head cause she was over exerting herself Jax sings her out of her coma mostly and he shows up at homecoming I loved it so cute .

Quotes-

“You’re with me, Sadie. When you’re off the clock, you’re not my employee. You’re my.. Air.”
I frowned at him. “Your air?”
He grinned. “Well, girlfriend seems to be a shallow word for what I feel for you..”

“If hearts could shatter, mine just did.”

I was going to cheat and pull down the fender stratocaster original over there and play you one of my number ones . See if I could get you to become putty in my hands, or at least throw your panties at me .

You’re everything I write about in my songs but can never have .

Any girl in a ten-mile radius is going to stare you down if you wear if. It’s impossible not to. A huge grin broke across his face. So does this mean you like me in this shirt ? I sighed and sat up a little straighter . I’m mature for my age , Jax not blind .

Book Review: the last time we say goodbye Cynthia Hand

The Last Time We Say GoodbyeThe Last Time We Say Goodbye by Cynthia Hand
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

May 1- June 4

There’s death all around us.
We just don’t pay attention.
Until we do.

The last time Lex was happy, it was before. When she had a family that was whole. A boyfriend she loved. Friends who didn’t look at her like she might break down at any moment.

Now she’s just the girl whose brother killed himself. And it feels like that’s all she’ll ever be.

As Lex starts to put her life back together, she tries to block out what happened the night Tyler died. But there’s a secret she hasn’t told anyone-a text Tyler sent, that could have changed everything.

Lex’s brother is gone. But Lex is about to discover that a ghost doesn’t have to be real to keep you from moving on.

Review- This book was a beautiful take on a girl who has to deal with the aftermath of her brothers suicide Lex use to be happy she use to have a great boyfriend but after Ty died she had a hole in her chest she felt guilty her mom can’t take Ty being dead she keeps telling Lex her life is over and then Ty appears to Lex in her dreams and kind of like a ghost .

Quotes –
“There’s death all around us. Everywhere we look. 1.8 people kill themselves every second. We just don’t pay attention. Until we do.”

This is going to sound trite, I suppose, but you never know when it’s going to be the last time. That you hug someone. That you kiss. That you say goodbye

People kept saying, ‘It’s going to be all right.’ That’s what they told me, over and over and over, like Don’t you worry, little girl, it will all be okay, because there’s got to be some bullshit overall rule of the universe that no matter what happens, no matter how bad it gets, everything will be all right in the end.”

“Yeah,” I murmur.

“And you know what I kept thinking? I kept thinking, That is a fucking lie. It is not going to be all right. It will never be all right, ever, ever again. So stop fucking lying to me.”

“Forgiveness is tricky, Alexis, because in the end it’s more about you than it is about the person who’s being forgiven.”
