Sand Jewles - G.J. Walker-Smith : MUST-READ

By -

Synopsis:
 Gabrielle Décarie was over arrogant men – but that didn’t mean she couldn’t have a little fun with one. 
When she took a chance on Alex Blake, it was supposed to be a one-night deal. 
He was too cocky, too flirty and too complicated. 
Sand Jewels is the story of why she fell madly in love with him anyway.

So, I don't even know where to start that review. Not because the novella (hell, other people call that two books) wasn't good, but because it was one of the most amazing things I've ever read. I have to say that for me it's hard by now to find words that I hadn't used yet to describe all the amazing things Gemma fabricates. I love her characters, love her places and most of all, I love her writing-style. 
People that know me and my reviews know that I'm an Alex-girl front and center. I was smitten by him right from the beginning and it's so great to see the other side of it. 
I am not a fan of Gabi's though. Never was, probably never will be. Yeah, I'm obsessed with books and in this one Gabi makes me jealous. She has Alex. I don't. Easy math, I have to hate her. This book though changed my view on her. I still don't like her that much - but I love how well she is for Alex. 
And that's all I wanna say about her. (I am sorry, I don't like her. *goes into her corner and pouts*)
The novella (I still call it book)kept me occupied right from the beginning and it was just right. I know Gemma said she wrote it as a thank you for us, her readers, but to be honest, I feel like thanking her! 
Sand Jewels is a must-read for everyone who knows that true beauty can only lie in the right words.
So... Thank you, Gemma, for Alex, for Piper's Cove and for making us want to be saving wishes. 

Enchanted truly,
Julie

Unspoken Vow (Steele Brothers #2) by Eden Finley

Synopsis He’s everything I want but run away from. There’s a long list of things I don’t handle well: Change. Relationships. Breakups. But there’s one person above everything else I can’t seem to get a handle on. Brody Wallace. In short, he’s perfect. The reality, he scares me. When I need to find a new place to live, Brody offers me his spare room, but I have no plans on taking him up on the offer. He doesn’t know what happened to me five years ago, and I want to keep it that way. But with limited options, I find myself outside his apartment holding a full moving box and wondering: How can I do this without exposing the darkest part of my past? He’s the opposite of what I usually go for. He’s bigger. Intimidating. He reminds me of someone I’d rather forget. My review: This book… I know a lot people will speak about Anders and what he’s been through (OMG, can I hug that boy, please?!), but I want to talk about Brody. Many people forget that while the victim
