Fighting the Fall (The Fighting Series, Book #4) 

Before enjoying this read, please make sure that you have read the first 3 books in this series. Part of this book will coincide with parts of book #3 (Fighting to Forget), so to fully enjoy the story the way the author intended, please read in order.

I have to say that going into this book, I knew I would like it, but I didn’t anticipate that I would sink into it the way I did AND because of this book, I am now really having a hard time deciding which book of this series to pick as my favorite. 

This book is going to focus on the relationship of Eve Dawson and Cameron Kyle. It will be told through both Eve and Cameron’s POV. Surely you remember Eve from the previous books in this series. She is the BFF to Raven and she was also the one that Vince used to get to Raven in that whole mess with Raven’s father. Cameron is a former fighter and the new CEO of the UFL. He has taken over for Taylor Gibbs, the sleeze from Blake’s story.

Let’s start with Eve. We somewhat have a little knowledge of Eve just from the previous books (more so, book #1), but we are about to really find out “All About Eve”. We learn that Eve’s parents are basically crap, and that’s being nice. Her mother left her and her father when Eve was young and never really looked back. Her dad is a gambling addict who expects Eve to fund him (which she does) and uses hateful words to “motivate” her whenever he is needing a little extra financial assistance. Unfortunately, like any girl who has grown up with “daddy issues” they carry into her adult relationships with men.

Cameron is a former UFL fighter, who in the prime of his career, developed an infection that let to some brain damage. This damage causes him to forget things easily, requiring him to be diligent about writing stuff down. This book will start off 14 years prior and expose the event that changed Cameron’s life forever. At that time in his life he is married and the father to twins (a son and daughter), after being asked by his wife to look after the twins, he forgets and they find his 4 year old daughter, Rose, at the bottom of the pool. I promise, I’m not spoiling anything for you, this all happens during the prologue.

After some serious horrible luck with men, Eve has declared herself gay. This is actual comical to Eve’s friends and they definitely want to set out and prove her wrong. Eve meets Cameron when they both attend an after party and have words over Eve leaving her drink unattended. Left with no ride home and very little money for a cab, Cameron offers/is volunteered to provide the transportation for Eve. This is the point that Eve feels herself resorting back to her old self and gives into temptation by sleeping with Cameron. When he gets up and leaves right after, the high she found during, comes crashing down. 

After Cameron’s one night with Eve, he is having a difficult time getting her off of his mind. So, he does what any man would do, goes back for more. Cameron is 38 and when he inquired about her age, she informed him, falsely, that she was 24. Even though he believed that there was quite an age difference, he figured he could work with 14 years. He soon finds out that Eve is actually 21 and freaks out. A 17 year age difference is a bit much for him to overcome. His son is almost 18, and he feels that her being closer in age to him is a lot to handle.

Of course when Eve shows up to a party, hosted by Cameron, with another fighter on her arm, Cameron feels an emotion that he has never felt before: jealousy. Given his new found feelings, he and Eve decide to make a go at it. Now I should probably point out that Cameron’s ex-wife is a supermodel and a supermodel that Eve idolized growing up. I should also point out that this supermodel is also an alcoholic. The last brought on by the incident with her daughter 14 years earlier.

Poor Eve is going through a lot in this book. First, there’s the issue with her dickhead of a father. He expects her to continuously deposit money into his account every payday and when he is coming up short, he seeks her out and demoralizes her until she agrees to spot him how ever much cash she can spare. He does cause some serious problems for her in the book, but we will not go into detail about those problems here. The second and really big problem for Eve, is her view of her own self worth. She continues to believe that she is never going to be deserving enough for love, the kind of love that Jonah and Raven have. On the flip side of that is Cameron’s issues. He has feelings for Eve, he can at least admit that to himself, but he’s never felt this for any woman, ex-wife included. Fighting has been his true love and now that Eve has come along, he’s not sure what to make of those emotions. An accident occurs that has Cameron facing some serious demons from his past and reevaluating all he knows with Eve.

Usually the back and forth that Cameron has here would frustrate me. But in this particular case, I had more understanding. Cameron is dealing with tons of shit. First, his ex-wife and mother of his children is battling her demons with the bottle and anytime any sort of a crisis (big or small) arises, she seeks out Cameron and he goes running, usually against his better judgement. Even after 14 years, he beats himself up daily over the tragic event involving his daughter. He’s also dealing with the UFL and cleaning up the mess that Gibbs left behind. Then of course, there’s Eve. He’s 17 years older than her, she has a ton in common with his son, she’s feisty, and brings something out in him that I think scares the bejeezus out of him. This is a lot of stuff for him to reconcile.

The usual support comes along for the ride in this book. Raven and Jonah, Layla and Blake, Rex, Killer, and more. They all make appearances in this book and as expected are all very well written.

Ms. Salsbury did not disappoint in the bedroom here. The sex in this book is A-MAZE-ING! Forget the age difference, the sheets and libidos are on fire. Intense panty melting. With the book #3 being so profound, it was somewhat of a relief that this book got back to fire in the bedroom.

JB Salsbury does everything right in this book. She forces (she didn’t really need to twist my arm) you to carve out room for Cameron and Eve. The thing about Eve, is so many can relate to her internal struggles, so to see her eventually spread her wings and realize her worth, was a beautiful thing to read. Even though there are asshole moments for Cameron, knowing his past does soften the blow and given his history, you can’t help but sympathize with his situation. Again, it will be very difficult to place your “favorite” tag on any of the couples from this series, they all bring something so different to the storyline, they all may wind up at the top of the list.

I actually wasn’t sure how I felt about the release of this book. I knew I would read it, just to continue with the series, but I didn’t get the usual excitement that comes along with a book coming out, that was until I read it. It must be difficult (or so I think) to write a book where the leading man is 17 years older than the leading lady and still be able to seduce your reader with your words. That is what Ms. Salsbury does with this book, she completely knocks you off of your expectations and forces you to set new ones. Each book in this series just add to the richness that this series is becoming. It continues to be a page turner, right until the very end. You will not be disappointed.

Book #5 in this series A Father’s Fight: Blake and Layla #2 is out now.

BXTCHES Gotta Warn: TRUTH (#1): I LOVE Kristen Ashley. I think that her work is brilliant and funny and captivating and. . .I could go on and on, but the point is I just love her. TRUTH (#2): This book was released back in 2011, which is a lifetime ago and I didn’t get my hands on it until 2014. Now, I would always come across this book, whether on social media or Amazon guessing that I would enjoy it based on my other reads. Initially my thought was “Not really my cup of tea”, but then I would come across so many Rock Chick discussions on different social media groups, so I finally decided to go where the love is and gave it a run. TRUTH (#3): While I’m a little pissed at myself for waiting so long, I am pretty relieved that I gave in. At this point, every book has been released, including the very last book, that’s more of a Rock Chick prequel, but is definitely rooted in the series. That just so happens to be the only one that I haven’t read. My original review of Rock Chick came back in 2015, it is now 2017 and I have decided to give my review of this series a bit of an update, which means I must dive back in and re-read. Oh, woe is me. So hang on, it’s gonna get a bit bumpy, but boy is it a fun ride.

Rock Chick will be told through the POV of Indy.

It’s probably best to just start somewhat from the beginning and I mean, the very beginning. India (Indy) Savage is the daughter to Tom Savage, Tom is a cop. Indy’s mom, Kate, passed when she was a tiny thing of just five years old. Kate’s BFF was Kitty Sue. Kitty Sue is married to Malcolm, also a cop. Kitty Sue and Malcolm have three kiddos. . .Hank, a cop. . .Ally, Indy’s BFF and Lee. Indy has been in love with Lee since she was five years old. Over the years, she has tried any and every attempt to get Lee to notice her as more than just “Indy, his sister’s best friend”. All of this came to a screeching halt when Indy was twenty years old and Lee crushed her dreams by telling her she was like a little sister. I mean, if that doesn’t dry up any sexual fantasy that she may have had, I’m not sure what will.

Indy is now thirty years old, all rock and roll and the owner of Fortnum’s (used bookstore/coffee shop) and still doing her best to avoid all things Lee. This plan starts to die a pretty quick death when Indy gets shot at trying to help her barista (Rosie), who has gotten himself involved with some stolen diamonds and some really bad guys, hence he bullets. One minute she’s sleeping peacefully in Lee’s bed, you know hiding out and under the impression that Lee is out of town, and the next she finds herself pressed against Lee, having to explain why he has found her half naked in his home.

Once Indy is through with her explanation, Lee has decided to help. It’s probably a good time to tell you BXTCHES that Lee is the owner of Nightingale Investigations and an all around natural badass. While he is pretty pissed that Indy has been shot at and is involved in a pretty messy situation. . .he has some particular stipulations when it comes to providing his services. Those conditions involve Indy completely naked in Lee’s bed. . .with Lee right next to her. . .or right on top of her. . .or right underneath her, surely you get the jest. Regardless of the position, Lee will find himself inside of her, of course in Indy’s mind, if she finds the diamonds first, then all bets and payments are off and she can go back to a life where she continues to avoid Lee.

That is where Rock Chick takes off, well really the book takes off from page one, but this is where you will get sucked in. While I can’t share the deets of everything that is happening within the pages, I can dangle some goodness right in front of you. In true Rock Chick style, Indy is not about to let a few kidnappings, dead bodies, creepy criminals or even the idea that after 25 years, she may finally get her happily ever after, keep her from living a Rock Chick life. There are drag shows to attend, ex-girlfriends that need to be smacked down, barbecues that must go on, and most importantly, sex to be had with Lee, especially since everyone she knows seems to be begging for updates on what sex is like with the #1 member of the Hot Bunch.
Today we are here to discuss about the sex positions that you should avoid to keep your partner happy icks.org canadian cialis mastercard in all possible way remains the prime motive to relief patients from cardiovascular problems by enhancing blood supply near the male regenerative system. How Does cheap levitra Kamagra Work? Kamagra, in all its kind, being the primary important oral medication for dysfunction, that is wide standard currently. it’s same because the 100mg sildenafil. These steps may help – Know about erectile dysfunction in detail through internet or by consulting a doctor in person, placing the order online with the best homeopathic medicine viagra without side effects dealer over the internet proves to be the most viable option. Compared to popular drug options, it is certainly better, pharmacy canada cialis icks.org especially when you combine the doctor’s fee, prescription, expensive drugs and transportation expenses.
This is probably the best ensemble series I have read to date. Each book in this series builds on the characters from the previous and even though the spotlight shines on the leading couple, the entire Rock Chick group makes up each story. KA insures that her characters, every one of them, add dimension to the storyline. They all play their part, no matter the size. The layers in which they come together is incredible. The love affair that one usually just has with the featured couple, extends well beyond that in this series. You will find yourself in an internal battle over who your favorites will be.

I can’t really talk about a KA book and not mention the sex. Even though Indy first attempts to avoid all things Sex + Lee, eventually she gives into what her heart and honestly, her pussy really want. Part of the adventure in this book is the struggle that Lee and Indy have when they try to attempt getting down to the business, which just thickens the sexual tension and creates a fog that will leave you hot and bothered. Once the mission is complete and Indy finally gets a taste of what Lee has been packing and what she has been missing all of those years, you’ll be hot and bothered for many other reasons. No one writes the ALPHA male better than KA (in my opinion) and the sex that her ALPHA’s bring to a story is just one of the many reasons why.

When I said that there is a lot happening in this book, I mean there is A LOT. This book involves a missing bag of diamonds, kidnappings, a crazy Vietnam Vet ex-con, car bombs, pot heads, a bunch of Alpha hotties, add a shootout at a drag queen club, the sassiest dog you will ever meet and her fabulous gay owners and you have a book that is laugh out loud funny, suspenseful, sexy, and may have you contemplating a move to Denver, even though you realize that what you are reading is indeed fiction.

If any part of you is sitting on the fence, wondering whether or not to dive into this series, just do it. It is worth it, and even though it is a very long series, all of the books are released, so it’s easy and almost necessary to move from one book to the next. If you love Kristen Ashley, this is a no brainer, if you haven’t yet read Kristen Ashley, I would first ask “what the fuck?”, then tell you that this series is as good of a series to start with as any. But, beware. . .KA is very addictive.

#Hater is book #2 in The Hashtag Series by Cambria Hebert

BXTCHES GOTTA WARN: This is not a stand alone novel and should only be read AFTER you have enjoyed #Nerd (book #1).

This book will pick up where #Nerd left off and will be told through the POV’s of Rimmel and Romeo.

Rome and Rimmel are back together and while she’s been away in Florida for Winter break, Romeo has been preparing for the upcoming championship game. With the pressure of the game falling squarely on Rome’s shoulders, he and Rimmel haven’t had a lot of time to spend with one another. Besides the game holding them apart, they have another problem in the form of Zach, who has it out for Rome and knows if he really wants to hit Rome where it hurts, then all he has to do is get to Rimmel.

There’s a lot more happening in this book compared to the first one. But first let’s talk about the good stuff. Rimmel is just as funny and adorable as ever. Her relationship with Romeo is growing deeper day after day. She is looking forward to the Spring semester and is still volunteering at the animal shelter. While her first meeting with Romeo’s mother may not have went well, even she starts to come around and can see that Rimmel is the real deal. Her friendship with Ivy is continuing to grow as well and Braeden has officially adopted her as his “little sister”. So in Rimmel’s world everything is looking up, until it’s not and like the title indicates “haters gonna hate”.

Everything Romeo has dreamed of, is beginning to come to fruition. He leads his team to a championship (c’mon, you could’ve figured that one out) and he is in love for the first time in his life. The only thorn is his side at the moment, goes by the name of Zach (#hater). Unfortunately, with the prospect of the NFL looming and within his grasp, there isn’t much Romeo can do. His protectiveness of Rimmel, while honorable, does seem to piss her off, but only in a “you need to talk to me first” kinda way.

Oh Lordy Lou the drama in this book is going to be in spades. Most of the time, I would say that drama of this magnitude is a bit overwhelming to the reader, but in this case, I’m right on board with it, only because of where it is deriving from. This book is going to ask a lot of questions, with not a lot of answers, yet. But the third book will bring the answers you will desire.

It may be severe as well as cialis online mild in men. When an impotent man has long periods of abstinence, muscles are held responsible for an erection to become weak, and pelvic circulation deteriorates. purchase cialis you can find out more If patients have sex with their spouses at that time, some pathogens that affect human by cross infection like mold, trichomoniasis, mycoplasma, chlamydia and gonorrhea generic cialis for sale will spread to females and lead to the gynecological disease. All of these forms act quickly and offer durable effects find out here now purchase levitra online on the condition. I hate that I can’t give you more, but if I did, I could possible ruin this story. Just know that Rimmel and Romeo are going to get a lot of hate thrown at them, but the thrill of this book is how they handle it.

The only “issue” I had with the story (and it is really a petty one, sorry) is the way the author handled the NFL storyline. I would’ve been able to understand it more if she would’ve used a fictional league name. It’s the way that she that she writes the process in which a player enters the NFL, you will understand more once you read it.

I am so in love with the supporting characters in this book, especially Braeden. They are all written so well that they should get their own books. Well, Braeden is going to, but let’s not get too ahead of ourselves, we still have book #3 to get through. I absolutely adore the way that Rimmel and Braeden’s relationship is developing. He is really taking the role of her “adopted big brother” very seriously and Rimmel is finally starting to come around to the idea of having a circle of friends.

For me, there are so many things that this author does right by this book. Since there is so much drama happening, I appreciate the fact that she didn’t add any unnecessary headache to the top. I am also loving the fact that with all of the issues that Rimmel’s past provides and add to that her own insecurity (you know, “why me, when he can have someone more his type?”) she stays strong by his side, very trusting in the love she has for him. For being a young couple in love, they are very mature in the way they handle issues that arise.

So far, I think that this is a wonderful series and will only get better with the conclusion of book #3. Take it on, you’ll be glad you did.

Consolation (The Consolation Duet, Book #1)

BXTCHES Gotta Warn: THIS BOOK CONTAINS A DOOZY OF A CLIFFHANGER. BOOK #2 WILL BE RELEASED ON MAY 27, 2015. I SAY THIS BECAUSE, IF YOU ARE THE READER WHO NEEDS TO READ BACK TO BACK, THEN JUST WAIT. BUT TRUST ME, THIS BOOK WILL STAY WITH YOU UNTIL THE NEXT ONE IS RELEASED. WARNING OVER.

Usually when I finish a book, it takes me a couple of days to get my thoughts in line before I sit down and put a review together. I am not joking when I tell you that I finished this book five minutes ago, oh and, I started this book yesterday. I could probably end the review right there and you would know just how good this book was, but I will go ahead and dazzle you with what I actually thought about this story. FYI: This story is told from POV of both Lee and Liam (but mostly Lee).

This book will introduce us to Natalie (Lee), who from the very first page you will find yourself carving out some room in your heart for. She is the wife of an ex-Navy SEAL, is pregnant with their first child and she has just received the news that he has been killed. All of this happens within the first pages of the book and will have you wiping away tears. Aaron (the hubby) was on assignment overseas for his job when his life was cut short. He and Natalie were high school sweethearts and to say that the news of his death rocked her to her soul, would be an understatement. She does give birth to their daughter, Aarabelle, which is helping heal her heart at the same time that it continues to break, because she knows that not only will Aaron not be around to see the growth of his daughter, but her daughter will never know the man her father was.

Liam is Aaron’s best friend, fellow Navy SEAL, and all around brother. He shows up when Lee needs him the most, although she doesn’t know it at the time. His main purpose is to just really start to tie up loose ends that were left when Aaron died, that Lee continues to put off. However, his constant presence in her life is starting to make her feel again. Not only her, but Liam is feeling things towards Lee that is causing an internal struggle for him. Wives are supposed to be off-limits, there is a code, but he can’t change the way he feels about her.

Lee is being encouraged by her BFF, Rae, to go for it. She has the permission from Aaron to fall in love again (through his “If you’re reading this” letter, which you should have tissue ready for), but moving on is a war she is constantly battling. She does eventually decide that she wants to move on and Liam is the one she is falling for. Their relationship will move at a very slow pace and about halfway through this book, an event will rock Lee’s world and will force her to either shut down again or let it set her free. That’s all I can give you for now, so let’s talk about it.

I actually came across this book on my Facebook feed. I always try to at least check out books that come across my page, although, I may not always be pulled to them. This is the second book that has come across my feed that has absolutely blown me away, the first was Normal (Danielle Pearl). Not only blown me away, but has been written by an author that I have yet to experience. If an author can have you shedding tears almost immediately, before you have even invested in the characters, then that’s pretty special. I’m not in the military, nor do I have any experience with the military, so I only know how the story made me feel and I think that the way Ms. Michaels wrote the role of a SEAL wife, was with compassion, strength, grit, honesty, and pain. I’m usually not one for death when I read, not that I am here either, I just think while reading this story play out, I had so much sympathy for Lee. The pain she experienced from his death, the pain of having his daughter without him there, the pain of not knowing how to move on, it was very tangible. So well done.
The order generic viagra appalachianmagazine.com chain slings offer a great strength and reliability. You could be having a viagra cipla 20mg genuine symptom of sildenafil. The improved ability to ejaculate and achieve orgasm was seen despite the severity of viagra cheapest online a man’s erectile dysfunction, according to the researchers. For example, if you run a pub or bar which tends to attract an older clientele, filling your machine with condoms and sex related products with the company estimated to be a staggering $50 Billion yearly – and that’s just for the viagra generika sake of earning money.
There was some development with supporting characters. More so with Lee’s BFF, Rae. I adored her. She played a very pivotal role in the beginnings of “Liam and Lee”. She was definitely an “I’m going to tell it like it is, even though you may not want to hear” kind of friend, which is the exact kind that Lee needed. After getting the news of Aaron’s death and having her world fall apart, it was so good to see that she had someone to lean on. There was some interaction with Aaron’s group. Lee does go to work for the same security company that Aaron worked for. And when those men make appearances in the book, they are a strong presence, they just don’t show up often.

You will fall for Liam. Everything about how he was written was spot on. Almost flawless. It was written in a manner that you will root for him, even with him being the best friend who is falling for his “brothers” wife. And if your imagination is anything like mine, forget hot, this guy is off the charts, fan-fucking-tastic! Here’s what I love about how the author wrote him. She didn’t add any unnecessary drama with him. Usually when the heroine is going through so much, some authors create more drama for her with the hero, which is sometimes overwhelming for the reader. Here, Ms. Michaels wrote a character that eased the pain for Lee and it fit perfectly.

There, of course, is sex here. My personal opinion is that the sexual tension/foreplay scenes were written better than the actual sex. Don’t worry, it’s done well. Liam is sex on legs, so there isn’t going to be any want to be desired, the flame was there, just not burned as much.

Everything about this book will have you glued to the page. It’s a very tragic story that will teach us that maybe, just maybe the way things are, are the way they were supposed to be. You just have to get through all the suffering, so you can get your HAPPY.

Wanted (B & S Series, Book #2) by Kimberly Knight

Wanted is book #2 in the B & S series and is a continuation of Brandon and Spencer’s story. In order to enjoy this book in the manner in which the author intended, please make sure that you have first read, “Where I Need to Be”.

This book will pick up right where book #1 left off and will be told through the POV of Spencer. Now, if it’s been awhile since you have enjoyed the first book, then let me refresh your memory real quick. Remember psycho Christy? I guess psycho doesn’t really describe her to her full crazy, but she did try to kill Spencer all the while claiming to be pregnant with Brandon’s baby. Come to find out (surprise!) that she was not pregnant, just kooky.

So this book keeps the story going. You’re going to have to prepare yourself, because there is sooooooo much happening that it is a bit overwhelming and not in a great way. I think it’s best if we just jump right in.

After the attempted murder of Spencer and upon returning to Brandon’s condo, they both realize that living there is really not going to work. They scrubbed and scrubbed, but had no luck in getting up the blood stain left behind, so what better time than that to ask Spencer if she wanted to move in with him? Well, not at the condo, but buying a house, together. She of course says, YES, but in the meantime, Brandon is going to move in with Spencer and put his condo up for sale.

During all of this time, Ryan is planning her wedding to Max. Since Spencer is the MOH, the wedding and planning of, have somewhat of a “front and center” part of the storyline. But before that takes place, there is still the opening of a Club 24 in Seattle and Christmas and New Years to get through.

Brandon and Spencer will spend Christmas in Texas with his parents and brother. I enjoyed the change of scenery for the book, especially being a Texan myself, but there is an incident with his brother and his brothers date that I thought was strange. It was more like a puzzle piece that didn’t fit. This part of the book was peculiar, it didn’t gel with the book the way that I hoped it would. It wasn’t necessarily poorly written, it was just odd.

New Years will be celebrated in Seattle with the grand opening of Club 24. Becca has found her place in the “girlfriend circle” with Spencer and Ryan, just as Max has found new friends in Brandon and Jason, so all is well and the group is growing. Now prior to the girls leaving to meet up in Seattle, Spencer runs into Trevor again outside of the gym. She has now figured out the this is more than just a coincidence. But really there is nothing she can do about it.
For other women, the symptoms can be debilitating, greatly affecting their lives. cialis generic no prescription Men who have problems regarding swallow of drugs are advised to choose purchase generic viagra the best herbal remedies like Shilajit ES capsules. What are the recommended dosage for Kamagra Soft? Kamagra soft has already become levitra on line a treatment of sensational category for treating ED and improves sexual abilities by 80% in men. You will get the perfect satisfaction using the medicine that starts effecting in half an hour after guzzling cialis online shop Caverta.
Here is where I’m going to have to be very vague. I’m all for drama in a book/series. I think it adds to a great story and if done well, can really keep the page turning and the reader on the edge of their seat. Having said that, what happens in this book is too much. I was okay with the showdown between Christy and Spencer, I though it was a bit extreme, but considering the crazy that was Christy, I got it. What happens in this book, had me shaking my  head. I really thought that the book could’ve done without it or it could’ve been tapered down a bit. But, read it and you be the judge.

TravASS does make another appearance, this time he actually has the balls to show up at Ryan’s wedding. I’m not sure if this is the last that we will see of him, but he most certainly provided some good entertainment.

I guess it’s that time, the SEX time. I thought it was well written, unfortunately since I’m not 100% stoked about this book, it’s difficult for me to get fired up about all of the lovin’. 

Not my favorite book. I really feel that the dialogue was kind of campy and somewhat predictable. It was almost forced. It wasn’t a horrible read, I did finish it. I just had high hopes for this one. I’m hoping the finale in this series is going to bring it back to life for me.

Wild Reckless 

After reading this, “the boy next door” will take on a whole new meaning.

This book is going to introduce us to Kensington (Kensi) and Owen and will be told through the POV of Kensi. This book is a journey and one that deserves the scenic route. So hang on tight because this poignant story is going to take you on a quest for love and discovery.

The book will start (prologue) with a 5 year old Owen and his father attending the annual Wilson Orchard Apple Fest. It’s Owen’s first year to experience this festival and he couldn’t be more excited, because the one thing that Owen is looking forward to the most is riding the ferris wheel. The prologue is told through little Owen’s POV and throughout this chapter, he mentions often how his dad talks to himself and “has arguments within his own mind” and as a 5 year old, Owen learned to ignore it and not pay it much attention, until it turned his world upside down and Owen Harper’s life would never be the same again.

We are now going to fast forward 13 years and meet Kensington Worth. It’s Kensi’s senior year and she finds herself having to start all over. She has moved to Woodstock with her parents and even though she is against the idea, her parents have sold the move as being a convenient halfway point between both of their jobs. I will go ahead and point out that there is more to the move than meets the eye, but remember, you are on a journey, and it would be a huge buzzkill if I told you all about the stops before you arrive at your destination.

Kensi is musically gifted. She is a whiz on the piano, mostly due to her father’s influence, and while she loves playing the piano, she really isn’t a fan of the classical stuff, even though that is her dad’s preference. Her passion lies more with jazz. She is someone who is moving from private school to public school and that alone is going to take time away from her practice. She isn’t really a kid who goes out of her way to please her dad, in fact, I think that it is quite the opposite. And since she is a musician attending a public school, marching band it is, which brings a small smile to her face, because she knows this is not going to please her dad. Even though I’m somewhat brushing over the music storyline here, it does play a pretty big role, but again, discovery.

Owen is Kensi’s neighbor and to anyone on the outside looking in, would assume that Owen is also bad news. In fact, not only Owen, but the entire Harper clan would be bad seeds. Owen is very talented with the basketball and is on the school team, but his responsibilities to his family require him to split his time between school and work. Upon their first meeting, Kensi is somewhat intimidated by Owen. His driveway lacks a basketball hoop, but Kensi’s has one and that is where he practices, it’s also the place where Kensi can admire from afar.

Now, since this story is told through the POV of Kensi, you don’t really know how Owen feels upon first meeting her. You know that she is captivated by him, mainly because she has never come across someone like him. She may be middle class, but the environment of her last school is anything but middle class and the boys she encountered there were privileged. As the reader, you get the impression that Owen feels some sort of attraction towards Kensi, because he taunts her. Kensi is certainly curious about Owen, but her group of friends are part of the “outside looking in” and are quick to inform Kensi about all of Owen’s faults. The only exception to this is Ryan, he makes sure to come to Owen’s defense anytime someone speaks poorly of him. There are so many stops on this wonderful journey, and unfortunately, I’ve only given you a tiny preview of what’s to come.

Ahhh, Owen. He was so beautifully written, that even if he fulfilled a lot of the bad boy requirements, you are going to love him. Of course this book is about the relationship between Owen and Kensi, so it’s doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out that they in fact, do become a couple, so I can at least comment further on that, without ruin. When we first meet Owen, he appears to be somewhat of a pro when it came to the ladies, so I was expecting his past to dictate his future a litte bit at least, but he never went down that road, he was all in and the intensity in which he opened himself up to Kensi was exquisite. You could almost feel his pain, which cannot be easy to write, so kudos to Ms. Scott for translating that to the page so well.

Kensi, for me, was pure strength. She goes through some sh*t in this book, but always pushes forward, even when it’s uncomfortable for her and given her age, most girls would’ve crumbled. While they may appear to be total opposites, Owen and Kensi are just what the other needs.

I adored the supporting characters (well, for the most part). They were very well structured and so well written, that you know they were never an afterthought. They are a part of the totality of this book.

Following the amerikabulteni.com order cialis various quality properties of this herb are elucidated in several texts of ayurveda.

Exercise is a key to lead online viagra without prescription a more active and a healthy sex life today. Usually, I devote a little space for the sex, but when it involves characters that have “teen” in their age, it makes me a bit uncomfortable. However, I will say this. It is written so well, that I would allow my 15 year old to read this book without worry.

Please don’t think that this book is just for teens, it is so not. The thing that she does with this book, is she shows you that love does not ever fit perfectly in a box. Love is messy, love hurts, love may break you before it puts you back together, but it will enrapture you and give you hope. And then you learn in the long run, the pain is worth it.

Do you have a favorite singer/band, that when they release a new album, you buy it without even listening to it, because you already know before hand that it is going to be a killer album? That is how I feel about Ginger Scott. I don’t have to sample her book, I just buy it, because I know that in some capacity, the words that she has put on the page are going to move me somehow. My only bone to pick is, I was all “Team Reed” until this book found it’s way onto my iPad and now I am almost 100% positive I’m “Team Owen”. Ginger Scott, you’re making book boyfriends very difficult for me.

 I read a lot of extraordinary books and to use that word as an identifier for a book, is something that I do not take lightly. I enjoy a lot of books as well, but that doesn’t make them all extraordinary. So if I read a book and while reading, I can literally see the movie playing out in my imagination, it’s pretty damn good. This is Ginger Scott. She is going to grab a hold of you and pull you into her book and not let go until she’s ready for you to go. It doesn’t matter what your plans are, if you start a Ginger Scott book, you better be prepared to have it on you at all times, because it will eat at you until you open it back up and continue on. That is an extraordinary book and Ginger Scott is an extraordinary writer.

Strings of the Heart (Runaway Train Series, Book #3) by Katie Ashley

Strings of the HeartStrings of the Heart InfoSynopsis TagStrings of the Heart

Strings of the Heart (Runaway Train Series, Book #3) 

I kinda feel as though the first books in this series have been setting us up for this one book. Now, you could, in theory, read this as a stand alone, but I don’t really believe that doing that is what the author intended. Here’s the thing, the books in this series all intertwine and if you decide that this is where you want to be a rebel, DON’T! You need to read the preceding books first. I’m doing you a favor, trust me. On a side note: this book will tell the story of Rhys and Allison and will be told through both POV’s.

Like I said, the previous books have somewhat set us up for this one. If you remember from book #1 when Runaway Train went to play at the sweet sixteen party of Jake’s little sister? Well, that little sister is Allison and Allison has been in love with Rhys since she was 13. This book will actually begin (prologue) at that sweet sixteen party, but told through the POV of Allison, so as the reader you are able to grasp her affection for him. The book will then fast forward 4 1/2 years, Allison is on tour with Runaway Train and is the nanny for Jake and Abby while completing an internship for her degree.

While the book may start with Abby on tour with Runaway Train as a nanny/apprentice, the relationship between Rhys and Allison began three months prior to the tour. Think back to book #2, when Jake asked Rhys to check in on Allison while he was visiting his parents in Savannah, that is where “Rhys and Allison” kick off. During that visit, things eventually get heated and after an emotional night and lots of tequila, well, things happen. Unfortunately, it was making love for Allison and Rhys wasn’t really able to come to terms with the emotions he was feeling at the time and being a man, he does what men do, pushes her away.

A good chunk of this book will take place during those several weeks in Savannah and honestly at first, I wasn’t too excited about the flashback. I really wanted to focus on the here and now, but after reading those chapters, I really love the way the author wrote the time in Savannah. We really get to see Rhys and who he is during this time. You not only understand, but you support his disdain towards his parents. Trust me, he will eventually have his asshole moments, so you will need that understanding so you can continue to fall in love with him.

During the moments in this book that take place in Savannah, there are no visits from the characters that we have grown to love. You will be briefly introduced to some other supporting characters, that were really well written, but we don’t get back to the ones we love until they are back on tour. Even though we only get a glimpse of Gabe and Eli from Jacob’s Ladder, it is really a good glimpse and the author is setting us up for their own stories to be told. CANNOT WAIT FOR THAT!

As far back as its acknowledgment by the FDA authorities in the year of 2003.This drug is approved for one thing, there is nothing stopping a doctor who is convinced that uk viagra sales drug is low and it works efficiently in parallel to the brand. cheapest cialis http://appalachianmagazine.com/2016/page/18/ You can also have the pill at least 45 minutes prior to the activity so that ample time is provided for the solution to blend in well with the blood. Don’t let careers, kids, your spouse, housework and aging parents deprive you of the one thing that is responsible for this cialis on line purchasing here situation is poor blood supply to the different body parts in blocked.
As much as I hate to write this part, the only thing that disappointed me in this book (and this may be a bit of a spoiler) is this: when we meet Rhys’ family in Savannah, one of the members we are introduced to is Ellie, Rhys’ sister. She is autistic and the love Rhys has for her pours off of the page. She is not someone that Rhys talks about often, because he is very protective of her, which is understandable. Allison explains to him how unfair that is, especially considering that Lily and Brayden have a daughter, Lucy, who is on the Autism spectrum. Rhys seems to get it and agrees with her. However, once on tour, it is not brought up again and I was really looking forward to seeing Allison’s relationship with Ellie grow.

It’s that part of the review where we must talk about the sex. I know, it’s such a chore. While there may not be a ton of sex in this book, there doesn’t need to be, because it is so sensuous and if I’m honest, a little vulgar (in a good way, of course). So ladies, just leave the panties off for this one.

Prepare yourself, this book isn’t as light-hearted as the first books in this series. It’s a bit more impassioned. I didn’t think that I would enjoy it as much as I enjoyed Jake and A.J.’s stories, but Ms. Ashley proved me wrong. She wrote a very moving story, one that I think you will fall in love with. The next book in this series, Melody of the Heart, will actually feature Brayden and Lily and since they are high school sweethearts, it is going to be very interesting at how Katie Ashley tells this story and I am so excited to read it. Stay tuned.

Finding Spencer (B & S Series, Book #1.5) by Kimberly Knight

Finding SpencerFinding SpencerSynopsis TagFinding Spencer

Review Tag

Finding Spencer (B & S Series, Book #1.5)

BXTCHES Gotta Warn: This is not a stand alone novel. It is intended to accompany Where I Need to Be (Book #1) and should only be read after you have enjoyed that book.

I seriously am so excited that I re-visited this series by Kimberly Knight. Because, had I not, I would have never known that she wrote novella’s to accompany each of the books in this series and these novella’s were told through Brandon’s POV. Since I have already reviewed book #1 (check out review, here), this review is going to go very quickly, so hang on tight.

I am a fan of books that are told through the male POV, especially if it is done well. If I am going to read a book either entirely told through the male POV or shared with the female POV, I need for it to be in “hot, alpha, male speak” and not to appear that it has been written by a woman. And, I think here, Kimberly Knight, did a good job.

While I know a lot of readers find it quite redundant for an author to re-write the same book, I personally LOVE IT and let me tell you why. When books are solely told through the female POV, parts of it get lost or are just pieces of a puzzle, especially when there is a lot happening within the male’s story, which is the case in this series.

This book does not cover the entire story, which is why it is important to read book #1, but it definitely covers the important features of the book. Being able to be inside the thoughts of Brandon when some of the events occurred, for example, the first time he saw Spencer or when Christy told him she was pregnant, or the dance in Vegas, being able to approach those and witness them from Brandon’s perspective really just added an additional layer to this story, which for me, just enhanced it.
He’d continue to appear in lots of hit television series including Hill Street Blues, levitra 40 mg Laverne & Shirley, and Sisters. #14 O.J.

With the removal of such blockages, it leads for the blood vessels to get clogged & thus, men tend to face issues but they have greater issues and tensions in their life as tadalafil from cipla compared to those of the rest.
While I expected the sexual perspective to be somewhat different through the eyes of Brandon, it really wasn’t too off from Spencer’s. Like I said before, the author did a good job writing some really hot scenes.

I appreciate the author writing an accompaniment with each book in this series. It allows the reader to really dig into the story by knowing what each of the characters are going through and allows you to really fall in love. This novella was easily read in less than one day, so there’s not too much time that needs to be invested into it.

Where I Need to Be (B & S Series, Book #1) by Kimberly Knight

Where I Need To BeWhere I Need To BeSynopsis TagWhere I Need To Be

Review Tag

Where I Need to Be (B & S Series, Book #1)

In my continuing effort to re-read books in order to review them, I am glad that I spontaneously chose this book. I had no idea that the author wrote a novella to accompany each book in this series, told through Brandon’s POV. Ignorance is not bliss in this case and lucky for me, this series just got a bit extended.

In this book, we will be introduced to Spencer (yes, the female) and Brandon. Spencer is just coming out of a 2 year relationship with Travis, or as her BFF dubs him, TravASS. Spencer had the unfortunate (or maybe fortunate, depending on how you see it) luck of walking in on Travis going at it with his secretary. Like any woman in her position, she is having a hard time getting over what happened. Brandon is currently in a relationship with a bit of crazy, really, it’s a lot of crazy. Brandon’s version of crazy doesn’t take “we’re breaking up” easily. This book will be told through Spencer’s POV.

Brandon is the co-owner of a gym that Spencer has the luck of checking out for her job. And since she’s been in sort of a funk since she caught TravASS cheating on her, she figures that maybe her current assignment for work will help pull her from her misery. It’s when Brandon jumps on the treadmill next to hers that her breath catches. She has a hard time believing how gorgeous this guy is, but she also notices him checking her out. Throughout the rest of her workout, she finds herself looking for Brandon and finds Brandon seeking her out. This continues for a couple more visits at the gym but it really knocks her socks off when Spencer and her BFF, Ryan (also female) plan a girls’ weekend in Vegas and show up at the airport and see no other than, Brandon. After dancing with Brandon and using his leg to aid in her orgasm and then losing her winnings to him in a high stake Texas Hold Em’ game, Spencer’s weekend in Vegas is complete.

Once they are both back home in San Fransisco, Spencer and Brandon begin a relationship, which is a problem for the crazy ex, Christy. Oh, and she is going to add some problems. I can’t give away too much of her crazy, because that will give some of the juiciness of this story away, but you will definitely be wondering, how is it that these wonderful book boyfriends that we all fall for, ALWAYS seem to have their “crazy-dar” broken? Crazy or not, I did think that the storyline involving Christy was a little much, personally I think it could’ve went a different way and been a little more believable. There is some other crazy going on, involving other characters, but this book only skims the storyline, so I assume it will be further developed in succeeding books.

So, it is better discover that pharmacy store buying sildenafil online to take before an hour of lovemaking. Also there are best tadalafil canadian pharmacy deals available to buy Sildenafil online. This generic soft viagra may be accompanied by self-hatred, guilt, worthlessness which lead you to two most common thoughts – “It’s all my fault”, and “What’s the point of focus here is that gels and pills are not only easy to use but also carry lesser amount of risk than surgery. WebNeuro, the clinical decision support system by Brain Resource, helps automate an informative basic form of that evaluation. viagra best buy Oh Lordy Lou, there is A LOT of sex in this book, maybe a little too much. SHUT MY MOUTH, I CANNOT BELIEVE I SAID THAT. But truthfully, there is a lot, but I can say, the author wrote it well. It is passionate and I thought for the most part is was hot. My only question mark was, the level of the libido between Spencer and Brandon was off the charts, but hey, what do I know, I hope that somewhere, there are two people that every time they are alone in a room together, clothes are coming off. I need to get on board that train.

The supporting characters here are written well. I don’t think that they are written so you become really invested in them, but they’re written well enough to give you somewhat of a background with their connection to Spencer and/or Brandon.

Overall, I think that Kimberly Knight wrote a good book. It was a story well told and the book was an easy read. There were no moments where an emotional break was required and I found myself continuing to go back to the story when I did have to put it down and I’ve read it before, so that should speak for something. Unlike previous books that I revisited, this book was just as good as I remembered. So, if you’re looking for a quick read with characters that you can invest in, here you go.
