Synopsis

Will their past determine their future?

Saint Ford has worked hard to achieve her childhood dream of becoming of nurse. Focused on her work and devoted to her patients, there’s no room for love. She doesn’t need a guy making waves in her calm, serene life—especially when he’s the unforgettable hottie who nearly destroyed her in high school. Dark, brooding Nash Donovan might not remember her or the terrible pain he caused. But he turned her world upside down . . . and now he’s trying to do it again.

Saint has no idea that Nash isn’t the cocky player he once was. Uncovering a devastating family secret has rocked his world, and now he’s struggling to figure out his future. He can’t be distracted by the pretty nurse he seems to meet everywhere. Still, he can’t ignore the sparks that fly between them —or how she seems so desperate to get away from him. But the funny, sweet, and drop-dead gorgeous Saint is far too amazing to give up on—especially since she’s the only thing in his life that seems to make sense.

When Nash discovers the truth about their past, he realizes he may have lost her heart before he could even fight for it. Now, Saint has to decide: is Nash worth risking herself for all over again?

My Views:

Book boyfriends need to take a step back because  a guy worthy of being a BOOK HUBBY is coming through! That's right people, be prepared to fall swooning at his feet and become a member of what is sure to be an army of Nash junkies.

I had SUPER high expectations of Nash, being as Marked Men are my favorite series EVER, and not only did Jay Crownover deliver, she smashed them out of the freaking park too.

Nash had me falling completely and utterly in love with him and his story. He has a heart-breaking past that made me want to reach in and give him the biggest cuddle. Jay Crownover writes with such a real rawness that you cant help be drawn into the emotions of these characters... Cue snot bubble inducing ugly crying.

It's possible that Nash has the biggest heart of the guys and  he had me swooning all over the place with his total sweetness, he also gave me plenty of panty-melting raunchyness, that got me all hot and bothered in the right places. One things for sure, this guy is HOT AS HELL!

I absolutely adored Saint. She is the girl that I relate to most out of all of them and I totally found my kindred spirit in her. She is so broken by her insecurity's but at the same time she is feisty too. I love the dynamic of Saint and Nash's relationship, it kept me hooked from beginning to end.

I am declaring Jay Crownover a complete genius for creating so many characters you cant help but fall in love with. There is not one that is not fantastically awesome and I soo want to be Jay when I grow up.

Overall I LOVED Nash HARD and no amount of stars could be enough. Basically I could go on and on about this book and the series all day but I wont, just do yourselves a favor and buy this little beauty. You wont be disappointed.

Escaping Heartbreak by Regina Bartley Cover Reveal

Releasing June 2014

It’s time for Sawyer to start living her life. Since she was fifteen she has taken care of everyone but herself, including her older brother Dane. She has been lying to herself to keep from feeling the pain of her parent’s death. Now she is twenty and she’s ready to start a life of her own. Moving into her parent’s lake house would be the perfect escape. Wouldn’t it? That’s what she thought. Only, it led her right into the emotional place she’s been hiding from all this time. All of those years of running from her feelings, she now has to face them. It’s too much. She can’t deal with it alone. Someone has to help. She’ll do anything to escape the heartbreak, but you can only run so far.

Travis can’t believe his eyes; his half-opened, blood shot eyes. Sawyer Evans was in the flesh and standing over him. He hadn’t seen this girl since he was ten years old. Travis only saw the Evan’s during the summer when they moved into the lake house. He and Dane were best friends. When Dane invited him and the old gang to a welcome back party at the Lake House, he couldn’t wait to go. It turns out getting wasted was only half the fun. Seeing Sawyer was the other half. She was the sexiest girl he’d ever seen and he was going to make sure that she knew it. Only she shot him down time and time again. He’s determined to break down those walls and get inside her head, but he’ll have to be sober to do it, and no matter how hard he tries, she’ll always run. He can’t keep chasing her. He has to figure out a way to make her stay.

It’s time to stop running, stop hiding, and start learning where the true escape lies. Everyone will face heartbreak, but not everyone will find love.

Stand Alone Novel for ages 18+ due to graphic language, and sexual content.

Facing Me (Shaft on Tour #2) by Cat Mason BOOK TOURE + MY 5* REVIEW + GIVEAWAY

Title: Facing Me (Shaft on Tour #2)

Author: Cat Mason

Genre: Adult Romance

Publication Date: March 25

Tour Host: Dreams Come True Promotions

“Everyone has a story my pages are just a lot darker than most.” 

Aiden Chesterfield needs control like he needs to breathe. It pushes back the dark past he tries to pretend doesn’t exist. Just as badly as he needs the structure that domination provides, he needs Camaron to be the one to submit to him. Though, when Aiden realizes how unworthy she feels of his love; he sends her away. Her insecurities anger him, but break him at the same time. Forcing him to come to the realization that her emotions are one thing he cannot control. 

Camaron Allen left everything to start her life over in Vegas with hopes of finding family. After losing the man she loves because of her insecurities she’s determined to become stronger. When a phone call from her best friend has her taking on a new career, she is forced to face more than herself. Shaft is hitting the big time and everyone wants a piece of the rockers’ pie; and some are willing to do anything to get it. Will Cam and Aiden be able to move beyond their fears and face the possibility of a future, together? Or will they forever fight their demons alone?

This series is fast becoming one of my favorites. I absolutely adored Gray and Daisy's story in book one and Aidan and Camaron made me fall in love with them just as hard.

There is something about the way all of the characters interact with each that make you want to be part of their gang. They are all unbelievably cool and seriously funny, I spent a good part of this book absolutely cracked up with laughter at their harsh and inappropriate banter.

Aidan and Camaron's story is so touching, they have both been through so much and have their own inner demons that they need to face. I love the dynamic of their relationship too. I enjoyed the fact that Aiden was her Dom but it wasn't done in a way so it overtook the whole story. 

These kinky characters have most definitely worked their way into my head and my heart. I cannot wait for Hunters story next and will be eagerly awaiting to get that baby in my hands.

Overall I give Facing Me was freaking awesome and I give it 5 BIG BOOK LOVE STARS!

Breathe Again by Rachel Brookes BOOK TOUR + MY 5* REVIEW + GIVEAWAY

   

Title: Breathe Again (Breathe #2)

Author: Rachel Brookes

Genre: Contemporary Romance

Release: March 11, 2014

Synopsis

For Savannah Rae, the thought of living in her picture-perfect world was almost too much to comprehend. With her dream job, a family she could finally call her own, and the beginnings of the best chapter of her life, she still couldn't shake the unnerving feeling that it was all too good to be true.

The thought of a life without Savannah was incomprehensible to Tate Connors. Never in his wildest dreams did he think he would find his girl in the form of a sassy, stubborn, beautiful Australian. Finally he had the girl and life he so desperately wanted, but he still couldn't ignore the fear that it would crash around him. When Tate’s past becomes his present and Savannah’s present becomes her past, the possibility of a future together collides head-on with reality. In her darkest days, the words Just Breathe provided a peaceful comfort to Savannah from the heavens above. Now as she and Tate go down the path of new beginnings, brutal endings, and the constant craving of a happily ever after, they are anxious to learn how to Breathe Again.  

 My Views:

First I would just like to say a MASSIVE thank you to Rachel Brookes. Tate and Sav are two of my most favorite characters and she has given them the most beautifully perfect ending to their story.

Breathe Again made me laugh, frustrated me beyond words,  had me heart wrechingly upset and managed to still have me reading with the biggest smile I could muster. This was without doubt a cracking finale to what has been a fabulous series. It gave me everything I wanted and more, there were no cliff hangers and I feeel like I have truly seen their story through to the end.

If you enjoy a sweet love story with pages full of sass, some tummy squirming hotness and equal amounts of drama and laughs then this is the book for you. I honsestly cant reccommend this whole series enough and I give Breathe Again a very well deserved, 5 BIG BOOK LOVE STARS!

I can't wait to see what Ms Brookes hits us with next, I for one will be waiting eagerly for her next book of perfection.

Teaser

As a standoff of epic proportions began between Chelsea and me. My hackles rose, and I knew I would never back down from her. I wasn’t a revengeful person, but as soon as someone starts hurting the people I care about and throwing around half-arsed accusations, they will see the wrath of Savannah. This could be the very reason I chose to have limited female friends. It was easier than having to deal with the bullshit games girls were notorious for starting, and clearly this was why I never hid my intentions when it came to men in the past. Be clear as day and no feelings came to the surface. I felt Mr. Davenport sigh beside me and I swallowed hard. Professional, Savannah. For him. I still didn’t back down as I spoke. “So I am assuming the—” “Um, excuse me? I was told that I needed to be here.” Our heads snapped to the door opening slowly, and I couldn’t believe who I was looking at, could this day get any weirder? Blake freaking Ryan had just walked through the door looking all rock star-ish. This was the first time we had seen each other since he had left New York for London. His eyes widened to the size of saucers as he took everything in. Dressed head to toe in black, he was wearing a shirt that sat snug against his body, and his tattoos were glistening under the boardroom lights. He was born to be a rock star. His eyes bounced between Tate and me and dropped to my hand gripped tightly in Tate’s and a smile tugged at his lips. Tate’s body stiffened against mine and his hand squeezed mine to the point of hurt like he was making his claim on me. “Stop it,” I hissed and shot him a pleading look. “Sorry, just habit,” he whispered then peppered my jaw with a kiss. “Thanks for coming in, Blake.” Mr. Davenport shuffled papers on the large conference table and looked towards Blake, holding out a pen and what looked to be a contract. “So you have been booked for the shoot next week and we are now just finalizing details. Savannah will be running the shoot on behalf of Beautify and Chelsea will be the female model for the campaign. If you can just sign here, we are good to go.” Blake shook his head and shot a disgusted look at Chelsea. “Are you serious? I can’t work with her.” “See? I told you, Savannah. Even Blake doesn’t want to work with you in your pathetic little fairytale world you are supposedly living in,” Chelsea spat before she threw her straw-looking hair over her shoulder and strutted towards Blake. I watched Blake closely; the look sweeping over his face was priceless. “I wasn’t talking about Savannah, you idiot. I cannot work with you, Chelsea. I tend to not want to associate with fucked-up, conniving bitches.” I couldn’t hide the smile of victory tugging on my lips. Blake Ryan, you genius. The look of utter devastation Chelsea was wearing made me feel like a million bucks. I still had no clue of the history that Chelsea and Blake shared. “Well isn’t this going to be a fun shoot,” Mr. Davenport mumbled under his breath.

Uncovering You by Scarlett Edwards Release Day + Giveaway

When I wake up in a dark, unfamiliar room, I have no idea what's waiting for me in the shadows. My imagination conjures up demons of the worst kind.

Reality is much worse:

A collar with no leash. A prison with no walls. And a life stripped of meaning.

I am presented with a vile contract and asked to sign. It outlines the terms of my servitude. The only information I have about my captor are the two small letters inked at the bottom: J.S.

Armed with only my memories, I must do everything I can to avoid becoming ensnared in his twisted mind games. But in the end, it all comes down to one choice:

Resist and die.

Or submit, and sign my life away.
