Living Out Loud - Staci Hart

Living Out Loud  by Staci Hart Sam's review: There are books you want to recommend to your friends. You know, those books you read and loved. And then there are books that swallow you whole, that leave you wanting and hurting, that make you feel as if they abandoned you because they ended. You cannot get over how incredible those books are. In fact, you cannot stop thinking about them even as you start a new book. Those are the books other stories pale to in comparison. Those are the books you want to force down someone's throat, make them sit next to you while reading just so you can be sure they read it. Living Out Loud is such a book. I started this ARC knowing Staci had the ability to crush and break me, but there was a part where I was ready to give up, to give in, because I could not handle Greg's pain. I mean, when does an author ever manage to make you love two characters so much, you rather stop reading than seeing them hurt? That...

Review: Revelry by Kandi Steiner

Image
Review Post You know how sometimes you just get to an author over a lot of extra ways? For me it was L.A. Cotton, who wrote a #KUBedtimeStories. It landed me in a group, and after reading hers, I read Kandi Steiner's (HOLY SHIT, THAT WAS HOT!) and decided I needed to stalk her ALWAYS and FOREVER now. Good decision, too, because that got me the ARC I just finished. (Like literally, ten minutes ago...) First, look at that cover (and no, I'm so not jealous she has an amazing cover like that...) Blurb:  Wren Ballard is trying to find herself. She never expected to be divorced at twenty-seven, but now that the court date has passed, it’s official. The paperwork is final. Her feelings on it aren’t. Spending the summer in a small mountain town outside Seattle is exactly what she needs. The peaceful scenery is a given, the cat with the croaky meow is a surprise, but the real kicker? A broody neighbor with nice arms, a strange reputation, and absolutely no int...

Transcending Darkness by Airicka Phoenix

Synopsis: One: Sign the contract.   Juliette Romero had a debt to pay, a debt that wasn’t even hers. But it was the only way to keep her family safe and all she had to do was sell her body and soul to the devil. Killian McClary wasn’t called the Scarlet Wolf for nothing. He’d been the head of the McClary Organization since he was fifteen and had built a reputation for being a ruthless son of a bitch when it came to running the city’s underbelly, not to mention merciless when it came to punishing those who betray him. He didn’t believe in weaknesses. Only results. Juliette, with her shy smiles and hot little body was a weakness unlike any other and yet he was powerless to resist one more taste of her sweet flesh. Two: Become his for a year. When given the choice between her life or her body, what could Juliette possibly do, but submit to a man whose very name invoked fear in the hearts others? She just never anticipated falling for his dark, hungry eyes and clever h...
