Misconduct- Penelope Douglas

 
 
Loveee it! what more can I say, Penelope sure knows how to blow our minds away. Misconduct was definitely another amazing hit.
 
I'm so glad I had the opportunity to read this amazing story, the characters, the story, the setting everything about this book was just great, I couldn't put it down , it captivates you in such a way that your mind will definitely will blown away by all the funny, sexy, and hot scenes between Easton and Tyler.
 
as I mention I love the characters, Easton(heroine) was a strong young woman, but at the same time she was vulnerable, I identify a lot in that aspect. I also like that she didn't chase Tyler, she was just as dominate as him and didn't want to be handle with care, her character progressed a lot throughout  the story, she let go of some demons that held her back and I love that she did that.
Tyler was just as great as Easton, dominant, possessive and knew what he wanted in life and went for it, he might have made wrong choices in his life but that shape him into the man he wanted to become. one thing he wanted but knew he shouldn't have was Easton but all the reasoning in the world couldn't stop him from having the forbidden apple.
 
Misconduct was a sexy and fresh read with amazing characters and great story. overall I truly enjoy it and can't wait to what Penelope deliver us next.

Chasing Spring- R.S. Grey


 
 
 
 
 
Title: Chasing Spring
Author: R.S. Grey
Release Date: Feb 1, 2016
Find on Goodreads - http://bit.ly/1P9U57p
 
Synopsis:
 
I thought I’d left Blackwater, Texas behind for good. I didn’t belong in the small town, but my dad wouldn’t listen. He dragged me back home in his beat-up truck and dropped a bomb along the way: Chase Matthews was moving in with us. He was the golden boy of my high school, my former best friend, and the last person I wanted sleeping across the hall. His presence was too great a reminder of the ghosts I was trying to forget.
 
I didn’t ask for a hero. I don’t want to be saved.
 
To me, Lilah Calloway meant late nights sneakin’ out, moonlit hair, and sparklers in July. She was my best friend until the day she left and I’d assumed Blackwater had seen the last of her. Then, like a tempest, she rolled back into town for the final half of senior year. The chopped hair and dark devil-may-care attitude warned most people away, but I knew if I fought hard enough, I could find the lost girl.
 
I didn’t want to be her hero. Some girls don’t need to be saved.
 
 
Author Info:

Repear's Fall- Joanna Wylde

 
 
I love it!!! I didn't think Joanna could outdone herself with Painter's story but she did, an it was amazing, my favorite tie with Ruger and Picnic too.
 
If your a fan of Reapers MC series then you know painter very well and also Melanie(the heroine). This is their story. you'll find what happened after Painter got out of jail and how his and Melanie's relationship came to be.
 
If you follow the series you know that Painter was a bit of jerk, I was at odds if he could redeem himself but in my eyes he did, I won't say that throughout the story he didn't have his moments because he did, but I didn't hate his character, I actually enjoy it . I enjoy reading about Melanie too, she was a sweet girl a bit naïve but she became strong as the story progressed. it wasn't all peachy in Melanie and Painter's relationship as they had their issues, were constantly back and forth,  with "I want you but don't want to hurt you" excuse, which at first it was okay but then it became annoying but I let it pass, and try to put myself in their shoes, to understand their choices. a lot of readers may still found painter as a jerk or Melanie a whinny girl that can't make up her mind. but that is life sometimes is hard to understand the choices we make especially about love. Overall I Love the story and the characters, even if at times I wanted to slap some sense into them and shout make your mind but that was makes a great story when the reader and the story become one. Reaper's  Fall has now become a favorite and can't wait for more Reapers or Devil's Jack there was one that caught my eye ;)
 
 
 

Emeralds (All that Glitters #2.5)- K.A. Linde

 
 
 
Love it!! another outstanding read by K.A. Linde. In Emeralds we have the story of Trihn  (Bryna's friend in Gold). we get to see how she was before she moved to Las Vegas and Why.
 
As I said before the story was awesome, it has angst, steaminess and heartache everything we love in a book, right?. Trihn is an amazing character, I felt she was very serious at times but I connected with her in that level because I'm exactly like, very serous person.
 
I won't go into much detail on the plot but I will tell you, is a rollercoaster of emotions and twist and turns that will keep you at edge. I can't wait for the conclusion of Trinh's story in Platinum(book#3) the ending wasn't a cliffhanger but it was definitely shocking, something that I wasn't expecting and can't wait to find out how it plays out in platinum.

Corrupt-Penelope Douglas





Review
https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/1126349645

Erika I was told that dreams were our heart’s desires. My nightmares, however, became my obsession.

His name is Michael Crist.

My boyfriend’s older brother is like that scary movie that you peek through your hand to watch. He is handsome, strong, and completely terrifying. The star of his college’s basketball team and now gone pro, he’s more concerned with the dirt on his shoe than me.

But I noticed him.

I saw him. I heard him. The things that he did, and the deeds that he hid…For years, I bit my nails, unable to look away.

Now, I’ve graduated high school and moved on to college, but I haven’t stopped watching Michael. He’s bad, and the dirt I’ve seen isn’t content to stay in my head anymore.

Because he’s finally noticed me.

Michael

Her name is Erika Fane, but everyone calls her Rika.

My brother’s girlfriend grew up hanging around my house and is always at our dinner table. She looks down when I enter a room and stills when I am close. I can always feel the fear rolling off of her, and while I haven’t had her body, I know that I have her mind. That’s all I really want anyway.

Until my brother leaves for the military, and I find Rika alone at college.

In my city.

Unprotected.

The opportunity is too good to be true as well as the timing. Because you see, three years ago she put a few of my high school friends in prison, and now they’re out.

We’ve waited. We’ve been patient. And now every last one of her nightmares will come true.


***Corrupt is a stand-alone dark romance with no Cliffy

***TEASER***  
I turned and stalked off, taking a left down the hallway toward the elevator. The doors opened as soon as I pushed the button, and I stepped inside, trying to calm my racing heart.
They still intimidated me.
And excited me. And challenged me. And knotted me up.
I’d kind of wanted to go to a party but not with them.
The doors started closing, but just then a hand shot into the elevator, and I jumped, seeing the doors re-open. I sucked in a breath, staring wide-eyed as Michael reached in, grabbed my shirt by the collar with one hand, and pulled me out.
“Michael!” I shouted.
I stumbled into him, and before I knew what was happening, he grabbed my wrists and locked them behind my back, walking into me and forcing me backward, back down the hall toward the kitchen.
“Let me go!” I demanded, my lips brushing the tip of his chin.
“I don’t know, guys,” he teased over my head, “she still seems pretty fucking easy to push around. What do you think?”
Laughter greeted me as he forced me back into the living area.
Every muscle in my body was on fire, and the tips of my toes kept getting caught under his sneakers.
I twisted my body, trying to break his hold. “What the hell are you doing?”
I pushed against his chest and jerked my body to the left, tearing out of his hold with every muscle I could muster.
I stumbled, losing my balance, and fell backward, crashing to the floor. Pain shot through my ass, running down my legs as the fall knocked the wind out me. 
Shit!
Shooting my hands behind me, I pushed myself up and bent my knees, looking up at him as he advanced.
He stalked over and then stopped, towering over me.  I immediately moved my hands and feet, crawling backward, away from him.
But then I felt something at my back, and I halted. I twisted my head, seeing a dark pant leg, and I didn’t know if it was Damon, Will, or Kai, but it didn’t matter. I was closed in.
Oh, no. I slowly raised my eyes, seeing Michael’s lips tilt in a devious smile. I stopped breathing, seeing him lower his body to the floor, planting his knees between my bent legs, and his hands at my sides. 
My neck arched back as his face hovered over mine, but I tried to keep myself up as much as possible, no matter how close his body got.
“I thought you were one of us,” his whispered, his breath caressing my lips. “I thought you could play.”
I stilled, staring into his eyes.
You’re one of us now. Will had said that to me on that night so long ago.
Michael’s amber eyes searched mine and then dropped to my mouth, his breathing growing heavy as he stared at me like he was about to take a bite.
I wanted to cry. What the hell was going on?
Three years ago was nearly the happiest night of my life, and it quickly became the worst. And ever since then, Michael not only acted as if I didn’t exist, but also, at times, as if he wished I didn’t.
Now the guys were free, and they were all back together again. What did I have to do with any of this? What did he want with me?
“I don’t know this game,” I told him, barely audible.
He stared into my eyes, thinning his own as if studying me. “All you need to know,” he finally answered, “is that you can’t tap out.”

More Than Enough- Jay Mclean Cover and Blurb Reveal

**** MORE THAN ENOUGH ****
Release: Nov 16
Blurb Reveal:
 
 
 
There’s no emotion greater than fear....
No ache greater than grief.
No sound greater than silence.
***
I’m grateful he showed up on my doorstep,
pissed off and angry at the world.
If he hadn’t, I wouldn’t be here.
And I don’t just mean here on this journey with him.
I mean here, in this world.
*
I wonder what events in all our lives—hers included—are The Turning Points? The points where we all determine that the fear of our pasts and the uncertainty of our futures are greater than our need for happiness.
Here.
Now.
While time and everything around us stands unmoving… who’s to say we can’t have it all?
***
We wanted it all.
We wanted it with each other.
We thrived on the chaos we created.
And ignored the Mayhem that ensued.
Because falling in love was easy.
But sometimes, love isn’t enough.

Alasdair (Masters Among Monsters #1) - Ella Frank


Wow!!!!!! a new delicious and alluring new series by the great Ella, and if that is not enough she adds Vampires to the mix.

I loved this story, it had been a while since I read about vampires but the fabulous Ella decided to write another M/M genre story and couldn't miss it, and let me tell you this is the vampire story that I was waiting for, is not just sexy and mysterious. The story capture me in way that no other has in a long time, in other words is just plain awesome.


I can't get into much detail about the plot because is one of those stories that is hard to put into words and should enjoy on its own. But the build up of the story, the characters, and just overall it leaves a thirst for more. The Ending is definitely not your typical cliffhanger but a way to build up the climax. Alasdair was such Hot story with many sexy vampires and few other things ;) and if you love Ella and are a fan of M/M style or want to try definitely check this story out is much more than what you expect.


*** Thank you to Ella and the publisher for providing an Advance readers copy for an honest review.

All Fall Down- (Embassy Row#1) - Ally Carter

 
I've been a fan of Ally since I was probably 13 or so with Gallagher Girls been my very first Series ever read, therefore when she released All Fall Down I was instantly excited to read about Ally's amazing characters and let me tell you she did not disappoint, in true Ally Carter fashion she leaves you gasping for more..
 
The story itself is great it has great premise to what could be an amazing climax, in All Fall Down our main narrator name is Grace Blakely that knows three thing 1. she is not crazy, 2. her mother was murderer and 3. She will find the killer.
 
I love love this new series the characters are simply amazing and the story just flows as you read it. Grace is an Amazing heroine in many situations I found myself relating to her and I think that is what made the story for me and I simply cannot wait for the next two installments in the series, hopefully the author keeps it as a trilogy as she previously said.
 
All can say is that if you are an Ally fan or want to read a good YA story with interesting plots and uber -awesome characters, this story is for you and if you want more check out Ally Carter other works that are just as awesome.

Crave(Bayonet Scars #5.5)- J.C. Emery Cover Reveal

Burn - J.C. Emery




The wait was worth it Burn (Bayonet Scars#5) was just plain awesome, I'm in love with this book.

Ian and Mindy's story was just perfect, in my own opinion the best couple and story in the series so far.

If you follow the series (which you should) you know that Mindy suffered a terrible violent attack that left her broken, but even with all the pain she suffered the only light within her was Ian "the biker in shining armor" willing to do anything for her . The connection they both had was just incredibly beautiful you could feel every word that it was written, their story is just magnificent and my favorite of them all, in fact it was very hard to get through the last page but I was content with the end because Ian and Mindy overcome many things through out the story and for that I was glad, she was a sweet and strong women that overcome a terrible thing and Ian was this though and sweet man that finally let a little bit of darkness go and allow himself to feel love and happiness with Mindy.

I love it so much that I wish it was longer and had larger epilogue or something I hope J.C. writes a novella about them like she did with Ryan and Alex ;). I love how J.C. is building Mancuso's Fall is very intense to read and I can't wait for more.

Gold (All That Glitters #2)- K.A. Linde

 

 
 
 
 
Gold continues and concludes Bryna's story our heroine in Diamonds.
 
Bryna blew me away in Diamonds, she wasn't that typical heroine that you expected her to be ; she was so much more and she embrace who she was and that I loved. I wasn't sure what to expect for her in Gold it was exciting yet terrifying you never know which route to take with K. A. Linde, but she once again deliver a story that I loved.  
 
Now, I can't really go into deep on what happens on Gold because it will be too much of a spoiler, but I can tell you, that yes it angsty and it would probably make you want to rip Bryna's head off or slap her once or twice ,but at the same time it will captivate you and draw you in like a moth to a flame. Bryna has a lot of inner struggles she has to face, a lot of growing up to do but in Gold she sowed a lot of growth in all aspects of her life, while in Diamonds we have a misunderstood girl, Gold shapes her into an Amazing women for that I was content with the conclusion of the story.
 
All That Glitters series is a must read, I can't wait for Thihn and Stacia stories, as of yet I'm not too convince of stacia choice of hero but maybe K.A. Linde will change my mind. ;)

Capture(Elements of Chemestry #3)- Penny Reid

 
 
 
What an Amazing!!! serial, Elements of Chemistry was the perfect blend of genius and awesome. as I said before when I first introduce to Katlyn and Martin, I couldn't stop reading and hoping for more and when Penny deliver more it flat out awesomeness.
 
In this last installment we finally get the conclusion that we all waited for after that Cliffhanger that left us in a WTF state of shock. I will not get into too many details because as much as I love spoilers I think we all have an idea how it will end, the journey to the HEA is not too hard but that doesn't mean is easy.
 
I love how much Katlyn mature in this book, after all she experience with Martin it changed her, while she is a wonderful and intellectual women she still did have her naïve moments but to me it felt real because she never really experience the type of relationship she had with Martin before. and what can I say about Martin he did changed too, he had his moments but nerveless I still love him.
 
Capture starts several months after the  (spoiler) break-up, how both Katlyn and Martin are coping with not being in each others lives, both still feeling that attraction and love but with difficulties still laying between them, can both find a way to overcome them and be together.
 
In conclusion Capture wasn't my favorite of the three, but I still love it and enjoy it. Maybe because it was the final installment I expected a little bit more, it still give me the conclusion that I was hoping  for but not to its fullest potential. Nerveless I can't wait to next story in the Hypothesis series, hoping for a "certain" couple Penny Reid ;).

Heat(Elements of Chemestry#2)- Penny Reid

 
 
 
 
 
I Love the sequel sooooo much, it was a perfect continuation of Martin and Katlyn story.
 
Falling in love that is what is happening to Katlyn, is foreign, strange, scary feeling but yet is such an  exciting feeling. In Heat little by little Katlyn is falling for Martin and maybe just maybe give into the attraction that she feels for him, but is risking her heart in the process.
 
 I love Martin what  more can I say, for him Katlyn is not just a game she is the end game. he is not so much of a" jerk face" in Heat and we get to know a little bit more about him and who he really is. I really love this serial and how is progressing and how the characters are developing is such Amazing story that I cannot stop gushing about.
 
The ending does end in a somewhat of a cliffhanger that will leave you in WTF, Why this happen? state, but I am sure the Penny will  end this serial with a Bang!
