<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Sebastian Stone, Sunder front man
and guitarist with a rap sheet about ten miles long, escaped to Savannah,
Georgia, to get away from the trouble he’d caused. <o:p></o:p></span></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Not find more of it. <o:p></o:p></span></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The moment he saw Shea Bentley, he
saw beneath all her sweet and innocence to something that went deeper. <o:p></o:p></span></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Darker. <o:p></o:p></span></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Their relationship was built on
secrets; their love built on lies. <o:p></o:p></span></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Sebastian never imagined how deep
her secrets went. <o:p></o:p></span></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When the past and present collide,
Sebastian and Shea find themselves fighting for a future neither believed they
deserved. Their passion is consuming and their need unending. <o:p></o:p></span></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Now, holding the truth in his
hands, Sebastian is faced with sacrificing everything he’s come to love to
protect Shea and his family. <o:p></o:p></span></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Two pasts intertwined. <o:p></o:p></span></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Two lives bound. <o:p></o:p></span></span></i></div>

<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>5 WOW STARS!</b><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This
book was very difficult to read and I suppose it was even more difficult to
write. After how the first book ended I honestly didn’t know what to expect. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In
this sequel the story dives deeper and a lot of the unanswered questions from
book one are answered, but I shall not spoil you!<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Not
going to lie, it was difficult to read, not that it’s badly written, maybe
because it is so well written. Author made me relate to these characters so
much, although I had no such struggles in life like they did. And that I
suppose says a lot about what a great writer A.L. Jackson is. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Also
this book brings out the family values, which is very important imho.
Especially the one that clearly shows that family doesn’t have to be blood
related.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So
to sum up, a beautiful love story that I recommend reading!<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">And
I’m off to the next book!<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>

<i><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Sunder
lead singer and guitarist Sebastian Stone has everything—fans, fame, and
fortune. He also has a heart full of bitterness and a reputation for a
short-fused temper. But an outward reputation rarely reveals the true man
inside. Facing assault charges after trying to protect his younger brother,
Sebastian is sent to Savannah, Georgia to lie low until the dust settles in
L.A. <o:p></o:p></span></span></i></div>

the mysterious, tattooed stranger begins hanging out at the bar where she
works, Shea is quick to recognize he is nothing but trouble, but she's helpless
to the way her body lights up every time his intense gray eyes tangle with
hers. <o:p></o:p></span></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">They
both soon find themselves drowning in a sea of desire and passion that won’t
let them up for air. <o:p></o:p></span></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Sebastian
knows firsthand secrets never die, and he’s not the only one who’s hiding them.

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So this story is the beginning
of the series, it’s about two people who found each other by accident but the
spark was lit. It’s the beginning of their love story and while some things
were a bit frustrating in this book I am willing to forgive them because even
with those irritants this is still a great book.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<i><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">There
are two kinds of people in the world. The ones who look first, and the ones who
leap. I’ve always been more of a looker. Cautious. A planner. That changed
after I met Drew Evans. He was so persistent. So sure of himself – and of me.<o:p></o:p></span></span></i></div>

<i><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">But
not all love stories end happily ever after. Did you think Drew and I were
going to ride off into the sunset? Join the club. Now I have to make a choice,
the most important of my life. Drew already made his –in fact, he tried to
decide for the both of us. But you know that’s just not my style. So I came
back to Greenville. Alone. Well, sort of alone....<o:p></o:p></span></span></i></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Welp, sadly the only think I can say is that I’m a
bit disappointed. As much as I loved the first book in the series, I just
cannot say the same about this one. I actually read this a year ago but was too
busy and too discouraged to write a full review. Also I’m not a fan of smashing
someone else’s work. However, I found my notes on this book and thought why the
hell not. I should at least explain why I gave 3 stars, right?<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">So I won’t be spoiling you and I won’t be telling
you what exactly happened that got me triggered but I’ll just say what was
bothering me the most in general. Assuming! The making of ass out of you and
me! And that is exactly what it is. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I’m actually so tired of this ‘plot twist’. It’s in
almost every book and it’s always the same and the reactions are always the
same and the emotions that it brings forth are always the same. It’s just
tiring and makes me eye-roll and face-palm so much, I have bruises now.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Now I shall stop my rant and just say that I didn’t
particularly enjoy the direction author took this book to. I felt great
potential in this story at first and it ended just like every other mediocre
story and that was really disappointing because I LOV-LOV-LOOOVED the first
one.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; text-align: justify;">About
this book: </span><i style="font-size: 12pt; text-align: justify;">Drew Evans is a winner.
Handsome and arrogant, he makes multimillion dollar business deals and seduces
New York’s most beautiful women with just a smile. He has loyal friends and an
indulgent family. So why has he been shuttered in his apartment for seven days,
miserable and depressed?</i></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">He’ll tell you he has the flu.<o:p></o:p></span></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">But we all know that’s not really
true.<o:p></o:p></span></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Katherine Brooks is brilliant,
beautiful and ambitious. She refuses to let anything - or anyone - derail her
path to success. When Kate is hired as the new associate at Drew’s father’s
investment banking firm, every aspect of the dashing playboy’s life is thrown
into a tailspin. The professional competition she brings is unnerving, his
attraction to her is distracting, his failure to entice her into his bed is
exasperating. <o:p></o:p></span></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Then, just when Drew is on the cusp
of having everything he wants, his overblown confidence threatens to ruin it
all. Will he be able untangle his feelings of lust and tenderness, frustration
and fulfillment? Will he rise to the most important challenge of his life? <o:p></o:p></span></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Can Drew Evans win at love? <o:p></o:p></span></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Tangled is not your mother’s
romance novel. It is an outrageous, passionate, witty narrative about a man who
knows a lot about women…just not as much as he thinks he knows. As he tells his
story, Drew learns the one thing he never wanted in life, is the only thing he
can’t live without.<o:p></o:p></span></span></i></div>

I have one more book to add to my "Favorites" bookshelf!<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I
could say that Drew is something else. When really, he's not. Not only he's a
prick in the beginning like so many guys are, but he's also proud of himself
for that. Doesn't sound like a good read, does it? But you're wrong there. It
was fantastic because of that! He was himself and didn't even try to pretend to
be anyone else. And I like honest people, those are the best. I can hate them,
but I also respect them.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Also,
I'd like to add few words about the writing. I was not sure about this
'conversation with the reader' thing. Especially in the beginning.. But, it
grew on me. And when I started to appreciate it, I fell in love with this book
:)<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Drew's
honesty is limitless, especially about his sister LOL<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

this book:</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> In this heartfelt romance from the author of
the All About Love series, two people who thought they’d given up on passion
turn to each other for emotional support—and maybe something a little more
physical.<o:p></o:p></span></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Kennedy Walters has had a tough
year. Now she’s come to the lakeside town of Lyra Valley to finally say goodbye
to the memory of her first love. But while she’s staying at his sister’s
B&B, Kennedy is shocked to find herself undeniably drawn to a handsome
local heartthrob—especially since she isn’t
sure if she’s ready to move on.<o:p></o:p></span></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Aaron Sheppard returned to Lyra
Valley because he was fed up with the big city and everything it didn’t have to
offer—like the beautiful, down-to-earth girl staying at the B&B. Aaron’s
enjoying a little flirtation until he realizes that she’s Kennedy Walters, the
girl who was dating his best friend. But after a power outage strands them
together, Aaron and Kennedy wind up sharing some intimate conversation. And
over the course of a night that neither will ever forget, they learn just how
compatible they could be—if only they knew how to let go and fall into each
other’s arms.</span><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></i></div>

after you lose the person who was your life? How do you move on? Do you even?
Are you able to love another person? Should you?<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have no clue
where and how to start this review. This book came at me out of nowhere. I
haven’t even read the books that go before this one in the series! And I never
do that! I’m so anal about rules and this is usually my rule. To never start in
the middle of a series. But here we are.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So let’s start
from the beginning. When I started reading I didn’t know what to expect. I kind
of liked the idea of the summary and thought it would be an easy, fast-paced
love story. Basically I didn’t want anything too serious, some romance, some
steam, but that’s it. And of course it all started kinda cheesy. I was rolling
my eyes more than once, especially when the male hero kept spouting clichés
non-stop. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">But then the
miracle happened! The book picked up speed and I just couldn’t stop reading.
This girl, the heroine of this book… Oh my god, it hurts how genuinely sweet
she is and how much she feels! Somehow I could relate to her… And this boy...This
boy… *le sigh* He’s a walking breathing contradiction and you can’t help but
love him. But especially you can’t help but love them together!<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;">Anyway, I’m in
love with this book. It made me feel so much. I don’t want to spoil it for you,
however. I highly recommend this book and I think it can be read as a
stand-alone. Of course it probably is best to read them </span><span lang="LT" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;">in succession. But like I said

this book:</u> </span><i style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; text-align: justify;">Alexa Wolving has just one
rule: never give a guy a second chance. That works just fine in the safe life
she’s built. In the charming town of Willowdale, her day job as a librarian
balances perfectly with her evening job as a black belt instructor. But when
she attracts the attention of a stalker, Alexa’s carefully built world begins
to crumble.</i><br />

<i><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Drew Cosimo knows he broke Alexa’s
heart five years ago when he took his first Ranger assignment and disappeared
from her life. Now that he’s out of the army, he’s moving back home to
Willowdale. He’s not looking for a fight, but making peace would be easier if
Alexa hadn’t told the entire town he was a money-grubbing jerk. Despite the
tension between them, Drew is quick to offer his protection when a stalker
forces Alexa from her home.<o:p></o:p></span></span></i></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;">About this book: </span><i style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;">Confronted by a restraining order and the
threat of a lawsuit, failed journalist Leah Stevens needs to get out of Boston
when she runs into an old friend, Emmy Grey, who has just left a troubled
relationship. Emmy proposes they move to rural Pennsylvania, where Leah can get
a teaching position and both women can start again. But their new start is
threatened when a woman with an eerie resemblance to Leah is assaulted by the
lake, and Emmy disappears days later.</i></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">Determined to find Emmy, Leah cooperates with Kyle
Donovan, a handsome young police officer on the case. As they investigate her
friend’s life for clues, Leah begins to wonder: did she ever really know Emmy
at all? With no friends, family, or a digital footprint, the police begin to
suspect that there is no Emmy Grey. Soon Leah’s credibility is at stake, and
she is forced to revisit her past: the article that ruined her career. To save
herself, Leah must uncover the truth about Emmy Grey—and along the way, confront
her old demons, find out who she can really trust, and clear her own name.<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The thing with this
book – I did not know what to expect. I haven’t read <i>All The Missing Girls </i>yet, but I know many of my fellow <i>Goodreaders</i> have been raving about how
amazing it was. I got this for a review, and btw I would like to thank <b>NetGalley</b> and <b>Simon & Shuster</b> for this wonderful opportunity. But what I’m
trying to say is that I had no idea what I was going in to.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This book is said to be
a second one in the <i>All The Missing Girls
series</i>, however I might say it can be read as a stand-alone. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So let’s review what I
think about this book.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It is very difficult for
me to tell you all how I feel exactly. It’s funny because I enjoyed this book very
much and yet I find myself speechless. Maybe it is because it’s all still so fresh.
The mystery, the drama, and the unknown. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It’s about this girl –
woman, Leah, who I can really relate to. She’s journalist by heart and she is
willing to sacrifice all for the truth. I’m no journalist myself, but I know
the feeling, when you get into trouble for persisting, because you stick to
what you believe. And in this book the author is talking about the essence of
right and wrong actions… What are we willing to do for the truth to come out or
keep it hidden? <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Well and also on top of
it all there’s a great mystery that culminates at the end – and let me tell
you, I did not see that coming. So I highly recommend this book to all.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">My next stop is to read
the first book, because I’m hooked! <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;">About this book:
</span><i style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;">As NY Lt. Eve Dallas and her billionaire
husband Roarke are driving home, a young woman—dazed, naked, and
bloody—suddenly stumbles out in front of their car. Roarke slams on the brakes
and Eve springs into action.</i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">Daphne Strazza is rushed to the ER, but it’s too
late for her husband Dr. Anthony Strazza. A brilliant orthopedic surgeon, he
now lies dead amid the wreckage of his obsessively organized town house, his
three safes opened and emptied. Daphne would be a valuable witness, but in her
terror and shock the only description of the perp she can offer is repeatedly
calling him “the devil”...<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">While it emerges that Dr. Strazza was cold, controlling,
and widely disliked, this is one case where the evidence doesn’t point to the
spouse. So Eve and her team must get started on the legwork, interviewing
everyone from dinner-party guests to professional colleagues to caterers, in a
desperate race to answer some crucial questions:<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">What does the devil look like? And where will he
show up next?<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">This
is the 44<sup>th</sup> book in the series, not including the shorter stories. The
44<sup>th</sup>!! How about that! And this I cannot get enough of Eve and the
people she work with. This character is one of my favorites. She is like a
bad-ass female version of Bruce Willis in his movies lol. Seriously, I love her
and just can’t get enough of her. I am sad now that I haven’t reviewed all of
these books as I read them, but I was seriously binge reading and couldn’t be
bothered at that time to stop and write a review. As with all longer series,
some book are better than others and yet I feel like this series doesn’t have
bad books. I loved all and every one of them. Of course some were closer to my
heart than others, but every book is unique and just proves again and again
what a wonderful writer Nora Roberts is <3 <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">So
this book got me guessing from the start. I’m a huge fan of detectives and for
example in movies I pretty much can say from the start who did what and who’s
responsible. And since I read all the previous books in this series, I was sure
I could guess who the ‘bad guy’ here is. Lol... Yes I was sure I could tell. I
know, funny. But once again dear Nora surprised me and I’m glad. This power she
has keeps me coming back again and again, to read her books. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">Absolutely loved
this book and am very sad it ended and cannot wait for the next one to come!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">If
you haven’t started this series, maybe you’re intimidated by the number of
books in it (I was), don’t be! The fact that this series is still going only
shows that one, the story isn’t over, two the author still has something to add
to the characters and three – demand for these books is high! <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">I highly
recommend! <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<i><span style="background: white; color: #181818; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">Death comes in the guise of hope when a
genetically modified tomato created to feed the world combines with the
government's new tactical virus, giving it an unexpected host and a mode of
transport. Plague takes the world, giving the paranormal species an
uncomfortable choice to stay hidden and allow humanity to die, or to show
themselves in a bid to save them.</span></i><i><span style="color: #181818; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;"><o:p></o:p></span></i></div>

fights the prejudices of two societies to prove that not only does humanity
have something to offer, but that long-accepted beliefs against women, dark
magic, and humanity itself can turn to understanding; that when people are at
their worst that the best show their true strength, and that love can hold the
world together as a new balance is found.</span><o:p></o:p></i></div>

<span style="background: white; color: #181818; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">Let me say that at first I wasn’t sure if I would enjoy
reading the beginning of it all. Of course when I saw it fist that dear
Harrison is releasing another book for her “The Hollows” series I was
thrilled!!! But then I saw it was a prequel… suddenly I wasn’t so sure at all.
Y’all probably are wondering why? It’s simple, really. I have read and re-read
this whole series more than once, 3 or maybe 4 times. I know and love and hate
the characters, some I’ve learned to love. I KNOW THEM. And it was over, although
I was really, really sad when the series ended. I’m still missing Rachel and
her crew. In my opinion this is one of the best series ever written, hands
down. The world building, plots, everything is perfect. It reflects the author’s
creativity and just leaves you in awe. And after missing these books for a long
time I almost came to terms with the idea that it’s over. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="background: white; color: #181818; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">But yes, I gave it a shot and I want to thank <b>NetGalley</b> and the publisher for
providing me an ARC to give my honest review. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="background: white; color: #181818; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">And I couldn’t be more honest than to say that I LOVE IT! It’s
perfect! This book gives us an insight of what was happening before the turn.
How ‘the turn’ even happened, and why. Another thing that I loved was recognizing
the key players that will appear in the series as it progresses. SPOILER ALERT!

<span style="background: white; color: #181818; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">Another thing I would recommend is that if you only now
joining us, the die hard “The Hollows” fans, this book should not be read as a
first in the series. Maybe the author won’t agree, but in my humble opinion,
this book explains a lot that you only learn while reading the series. And I
think you should not know some stuff before you know it, if that makes sense! </span><span style="background: white; color: #181818; font-family: Wingdings; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%; mso-ascii-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-char-type: symbol; mso-hansi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-symbol-font-family: Wingdings;">J</span><span style="background: white; color: #181818; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">Recently divorced, Laura Baughman is taking her life
back. After a decade away, she’s returning to Yachats, Oregon—the small town
she couldn’t wait to leave after graduation—to take over her late mother’s
beloved flower shop. Yet once she arrives, Laura discovers the store has been
neglected and her father has partnered in construction with Jake Lock. The
once-scrawny high school band geek is now successful—and irresistibly sexy—and
set to inherit her family’s business. That is, unless Laura can prove in the
next thirty days that she has what it takes to run the company.<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">Despite the heat between Jake and Laura, romance is
out of the question. After her last disastrous relationship, Laura has sworn
off men—especially one bent on crushing her dreams. That’s just fine with Jake,
who thinks the gorgeous blonde is a pain in the neck…though admittedly one he’d
like to put his lips all over.<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>

<i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">Jake has a proposal to mix business with pleasure.
But when a deal goes south, Laura is ready to pack up and skip town all over
again. Does he have what it takes to convince her to stay?<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>

want to thank <i><b>NetGalley</b></i> for providing me with and ARC of this book for
my honest review!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">Now
I will explain why I’m only giving 3 stars. Although I liked this book, I do have
very conflicting feelings about it too. For me personally it wasn’t ‘full’. I
wanted to know more about the MC and this book was so fast paced it was a bit
too much, if you know what I mean. In some parts I just felt like some trying
to tell me a long story but only having a limited time to do it. So I feel like
the full potential of this story wasn’t explored enough. But you know, maybe
that’s just me. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">Knowing
all that, I have still enjoyed this book very much. It’d hooked me from the
start and I just couldn’t put it down. Well since my schedule is very hectic at
the moment I was actually kept picking it up to be exact. Because I really, really,
really wanted to finish it!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">I
would recommend this book as a free-time-don’t-think-too-much-about-it read. It
probably won’t teach you much about life in general, but it is a fun and a
steamy read and just great for a relaxing evening with a book. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<i>#1 New York Times bestselling author Karen Marie Moning returns with the epic conclusion to her pulse-pounding Fever series, where a world thrown into chaos grows more treacherous at every turn. As Mac, Barrons, Ryodan, and Jada struggle to restore control, enemies become allies, right and wrong cease to exist, and the lines between life and death, lust and love, disappear completely.</i></div>

<i>Black holes loom menacingly over Dublin, threatening to destroy the Earth. Yet the greatest danger is the one MacKayla Lane has unleashed from within: the Sinsar Dubh—a sentient book of unthinkable evil—has possessed her body and will stop at nothing in its insatiable quest for power.</i></div>

<i>The fate of Man and Fae rests on destroying the book and recovering the long-lost Song of Making, the sole magic that can repair the fragile fabric of the Earth. But to achieve these aims, sidhe-seers, the Nine, Seelie, and Unseelie must form unlikely alliances and make heart-wrenching choices. For Barrons and Jada, this means finding the Seelie Queen who alone can wield the mysterious song, negotiating with a lethal Unseelie prince hell-bent on ruling the Fae courts, and figuring out how to destroy the Sinsar Dubh while keeping Mac alive.</i></div>

THIS BOOK!!!</div>
</span></span><div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #181818; font-size: 14px;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"> The feels I have right now cannot be named.. So many feels it is ridiculous if you ask me. </span></div>
</span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-size: 14px;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"> I remember the first time I've started this series. I remember how I was hooked from the start and how after I read all of the existing books I was mad and sad at the dear author for not producing them faster! </span></div>
<br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-size: 14px;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"></span></span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"> But now, I am not mad or sad because of that.. I'm mad and sad because the journey is over.. and what a journey it was! And although there will be at least one more, Dani's novel, maybe even more than just that one, and maybe with the same characters, I feel like this book wrapped it all up. Mainly I'm just sad now.. because it ended..</span></div>
<br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-size: 14px;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"></span></span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"> But don't get me wrong, I've enjoyed this book and all of the books before this one tremendously! So much so that that is why I am so sad at the moment. I feel like there's been a huge dot placed at the end of this book.</span></div>
<br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-size: 14px;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"> Now I know I wasn't always happy with the authors decisions, but I am happy I had the pleasure to read these books. They made me think and feel so much! </span></div>
<br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-size: 14px;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"> I am not gonna spoil you the opportunity to read this for yourself. Was there a HEA? Well you'll just have to read it to know. I might add that before reading this book one must have to be prepared to cry at times or at least feel sad. Because there can be no good if there's no bad... right?</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: justify;">
All in all I loved this book.. I am amazed once again with the authors ability to truly touch my heart. </div>
</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: justify;">
And I'm indescribably happy to have had the opportunity to know my beloved characters, to see them grow, to feel happy and sad and hurt with them, to cry with them and laugh with them. So again thank you <b>Karen Marie Moning</b>, you gave me so much I cannot describe. I've re-read this series so many times I can't count, and I know I will be re-reading it in the future as well.</div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-size: 14px;"><div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"> So if you want my opinion on whether or not to read this book, you should know the answer by now. It is always Yes! Yes, because you read all of the books before this one, and if you haven't, what the hell are you waiting for??? And YES, because it is great and we all need few hundred pages of great once in awhile in our lives!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This time I took my time re-reading this book, even before finishing it I had a chance to see Behind Tony's Eyes, it made everything much more 'real'. I loved it, love the series and the characters. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The only flaw I could find with this book is that it took too long to get to the ending, it was all so confusing, but it was so worth it!!! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Have I said that I loved it already? I did :) I'll say that again - <strong>LOVED IT!!!!</strong>

All of her recollections have one common denominator, the man she just met—Anthony Rawlings. Unbeknownst to Claire, Anthony has had her in his sights for a long time. Every action has consequences—and his actions resulted in their chance meeting. </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.31999969482422px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.31999969482422px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.31999969482422px;">Facing incomprehensible circumstances, Claire must learn to survive as she comes to terms with her new reality—every aspect of her livelihood is now dependent upon the tall, dark-haired, dark-eyed tycoon. Anthony may appear to the world as a prosperous, benevolent, kind businessman, but in reality Claire learns he is also a menacing, controlling captor with very strict rules: do as your told, public failure is not an option, and don’t divulge private information. Failure to follow these rules and more, are met with serious consequences.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.31999969482422px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.31999969482422px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.31999969482422px;">In an effort to earn her freedom, Claire learns her lessons well and before long, she unknowingly captivates her captor. Anthony/ Tony reluctantly becomes enthralled with Claire’s beauty, resilience and determination. Their interaction instigates strong emotions, including—fear, anger, love, and lust—as their journey flows into uncharted waters of intrigue and passion. </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.31999969482422px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.31999969482422px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.31999969482422px;">From the opening criminal abduction, through the twists and turns, to the unlikely romantic thrills, the suspense climaxes as Aleatha Romig utilizes vivid detail, allowing this novel to unfold like a movie. </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.31999969482422px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.31999969482422px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.31999969482422px;">Can you put the pieces of the puzzle together?

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Oh wow!<br />Though my first thought when I saw words 'The End' was NOOOOOOOOOO!!!<br />I need more!!! Tony's POV? There can never be enough of that!!!<br /><br />I <strong>Hate</strong> to <strong>Love</strong> him and I <strong>Love</strong> to <strong>Hate</strong> him! <- that describes my emotions towards him the best at the moment..<br /><br />Wow, I can't seem to stop repeating that! I didn't know what to expect.. cause seriously, how can you expect something from him? Actually you can expect everything and nothing at the same time! That's Anthony Rawlings, polished on the outside - totally unpredictable inside!<br /><br />And since the inside of my head feel suspiciously like scrambled eggs at the moment I don't think I can write a worthy review for this wonderful book!<br /><br />I'd just start babbling ( like right now ) and fangirling, I may even start crying and that's never a good idea.<br /><br />So let's all pray for the next reading companion to come along fast ( pretty please Aleatha!!!), so I'd be able to compose myself a little and live my life again. Or not. Actually keep them coming, more books, more POV's! I'd even like to read it from Catherine's POV.. I'm just kidding, I'd stab the bitch!<br /><br />Anyway, me done.<br />Peace,<br />A.<br /><br />P.S. In case I forgot to mention, this Book is AWESOME! If you haven't yet, you should check The Consequences series by <a href="http://www.aleatharomig.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Aleatha Romig</a> . This is the 4th book. LOVE YOU ALEATHA!<br /><br />P.P.S. yup, like I said.. I started fangirling.. here goes the waterworks!</span></div>

Forced into a dangerous triangle of alliance with V’lane, an insatiable Fae prince of lethally erotic tastes, and Jericho Barrons, a man of primal desires and untold secrets, Mac is soon locked in a battle for her body, mind, and soul. </em><br /><br /><em>As All Hallows’ Eve approaches and the city descends into chaos, as a shocking truth about the Dark Book is uncovered, not even Mac can prevent a deadly race of immortals from shattering the walls between worlds—with devastating consequences.…</em></div>

It was my 4th now.<br />Still - same hollow, sinking feeling.<br />Those who read this book will understand why.<br /><br />From the start I hated Mac. Maybe hate is to strong a word for it, but I disliked her greatly.<br />She was spoiled and lazy.. But now I see her in a totally different light.<br /><br />When you read paranormal, fantasy or any similar kind of book,you want a heroine to be strong. You want her to kick ass and take no shit from other. You want her independent. You don't want her to be weak.<br />However, I find myself liking Mac more and more every time I read this series. Actually if you think about it, this way, Mac's way is better.<br />She was just a small town southern belle. Spoiled to no end, loved by her family and her life was great. Until suddenly it wasn't anymore.<br /><br />What would you expect from her? To become strong overnight because she has to? To just know martial arts without training, because there are bad guys and she has to be a kick-ass? Sounds great, but very unreal-world like.<br />This time re-reading KMM Fever series I was looking for those subtle changes in her, and I found it.<br />She went from <em>'meh'</em> to <em>'oh wow'</em> in few months. Few very hard months for her. Oh, and how have she changed!<br /><br />Well the how's and why's I'll leave for you to figure out yourself. :)<br /><br />And this 3rd book. Ha, she became a player herself. She used to be a victim.<br /><br />Nope! Not anymore!<br /><br />Yeah, yeah.. I know what you think.. "but what about the ending of this book?"<br /><br />What about it?<br /><br />It was a great ending, a beautiful cliffhanger. I'd be suicidal if not for knowing I have the next book of this series safely in my Kindle :)<br /><br />Anyway.. The Mac says it, and the author repeats it. That this is a story about light. And I actually starting to see it.<br /><br />Rereading a book is great, every time it's different. A lot depends on your mood while reading, so you're able to see it from different perspective every time!<br /><br />Yup, that's it for now<br /><br />Peace,<br />Queen A.</div>

<em>Being connected to Daemon Black sucks </em><br /><em>Thanks to his alien mojo, Daemon’s determined to prove what he feels for me is more than a product of our bizarro connection. So I’ve sworn him off, even though he’s running more hot than cold these days. But we’ve got bigger problems.</em><br /><em>Something worse than the Arum has come to town .</em><br /><em>The Department of Defense are here. If they ever find out what Daemon can do and that we're linked, I’m a goner. So is he. And there's this new boy in school who’s got a secret of his own. He knows what’s happened to me and he can help, but to do so, I have to lie to Daemon and stay away from him. Like that's possible. Against all common sense, I'm falling for Daemon. Hard.</em><br /><em>But then everything changes </em><br /><em>I’ve seen someone who shouldn’t be alive. And I have to tell Daemon, even though I know he’s never going to stop searching until he gets the truth. What happened to his brother? Who betrayed him? And what does the DOD want from them—from me?</em><br /><em>No one is who they seem. And not everyone will survive the lies .</em></div>

But I heard that book 3 is even worse.</span><br /><br /><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Now people who read my reviews probably noticed that I try, really try to say something good about the book, even if I haven't loved it.</span><br /><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">I wish I could say more nice things about this one too, the problem is, everything paled in a bright light of Katy</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Peace, A.</span></div>

Who would? But then she witnesses her friend’s murder at the hands of what can only be an alien, thrusting her into a world that will kill to protect their secret.</em><br /><br /><em>Hunter stirs Serena’s temper and her lust despite their differences. Soon he’s doing the unthinkable—breaking the rules he’s lived by, going against the government to keep Serena safe. But are the aliens and the government the biggest threats to Serena’s life… or is it Hunter?</em></div>

And not just because in my opinion it was better in a way, then Lux series.</div>
</span><div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>

Although it's not fair to compare these books, mainly because it's incomparable.</div>
</span><span style="color: #272727; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Tahoma, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 16px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"><div style="text-align: left;">
Yes the tone and the style is there. Author writes it with light humor and I love that.</div>

So although it wasn't world shattering and completely mind blowing and powerful like some books on my favorites list, this is definitely A MUST READ material.</div>
</span><span style="color: #272727; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Tahoma, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 16px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"><div style="text-align: left;">
After all the frustration I went through during my introduction into this word full of aliens, thanks to Lux series.Not.</div>
</span><span style="color: #272727; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Tahoma, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 16px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"><div style="text-align: left;">
I found this to be refreshing and very pleasing.</div>
</span><span style="color: #272727; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Tahoma, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 16px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"><div style="text-align: left;">
Of course there are flaws ... That insta-love is getting old and I wish authors would just stop with it.</div>
</span><span style="color: #272727; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Tahoma, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 16px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"><div style="text-align: left;">
But the chemistry between those two... HOLY HOTNESS!!!!! WOW! It was worth every bitchy feeling and comment I had and thought of when reading "Onyx"...</div>
</span><div style="text-align: left;">

I'm getting tired of the event pattern.. For most of the book there's nothing happening, then nearing the end there's this big great event that explains everything and usually there are some big revelations and of course somebody gets hurt. Usually Mercy. Then there's a lull again, and by the ending of the book there's one more big event. </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 18px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 18px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 18px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 18px;">What I hate, is how cold Mercy looks.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 18px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 18px;">Sure she has feelings and blah blah. But I don't feel it. If she gets hurts, it's like nothing. Physically or emotionally, I just don't believe her. </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 18px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 18px;">It's like someone retelling her story to me, without emotions and the like. I'd like to be able to feel what she's feeling, to truly believe that she's 'real'. </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 18px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 18px;">It's almost like reading a history book. Cold facts.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 18px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 18px;">'She went there because we needed to find that thing.

But it's possible, Kate Daniels is the best example. </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 18px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 18px;">There are too many things I must assume, which I rather read about.

She isn’t prepared for the lifestyle change and she knows she’ll never fit into this world. Then there is her sexy stepbrother who her father leaves her with for the summer while he runs off to Paris with his wife. Rush is as spoiled as he is gorgeous. He is also getting under her skin. She knows he is anything but good for her and that he’ll never be faithful to anyone. He is jaded and has secrets Blaire knows she may never uncover but even knowing all of that…</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19px;">Blaire just may have fallen too far.</span></i></span></div>

<br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />First of all let me just gush about the cover first!!! I really haven't know that it would show them off so perfectly! It's just like I imagine them to be!!<br />Great work on this!!! Whoever did it, I salute them with this victory!<br /><br />So lets get to this book.<br /><br />I don't think I've read anything by dear <em>Abbi Glines</em> until now, not that I didn't want to. But lets be real, do you see how many books I have in my TBR list? And I want to read <em>All</em> of them. And then there's those that I haven't found yet, but will be in the same pile soon.<br />So I ask my forgiveness, I hope the author will grant me one. Cause I freakin' <strong>LOVED THIS BOOK!!!!! </strong><br /><br /><img class="escapedImg" src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/009228c48116617652e297f08482555a/tumblr_mmg7byBIYE1qf8btso1_400.gif" style="border: 0px; max-width: 430px;" /><br /><br />From the first pages I couldn't stop laughing! I think the innocence of the heroine and the stubbornness stole me away! Maybe she's quiet but she's not weak!<br />And that is why I was so drawn to this book.<br />The hero is another douchebag. At least author let us believe that for awhile. And he is.<br />'Cause I was soo mad at him for how he treated Blaire from the start!! I thought I'd pull my own gun on him! ( I don't have one, but that's not the case lol)<br />Anyway, as the story continued I became really protective of our heroine. Some people may call her spineless or stupid.<br />But she's not. Yes she's naive and very sweet, but in her, it's a huge plus! I really never thought someone could pull that off ( talking about the author). Usually, when I read about someone like that I feel mad. I hate how weak woman can be when a man is in the picture.<br />But this time it was different. That girl went through so much, and life haven't decided yet to leave her be. But she kept it together, she kept standing and she kept living!<br />I have so much respect for this character I'm really in awe!<br /><br />I don't wanna spoil you with revealing too much, cause you need to experience this for yourself.<br />This is a sweet and breathtakingly beautiful story about a young man an a woman who want so many things.. and only time show what will happen next.<br /><br />I recommend this book to all NA and romance lovers. This book is amazing and I wanna share it with everyone!<br /><br />I'm off to reading a second book!<br /><br />Peace<br />A.</span></div>

This, Nora realizes, is her life: nothing so simple, so vanilla, as a mere love triangle for her. It's a knot in a silken cord, a tangled mass of longings of the body and the heart and the mind. And it may unravel at any moment.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19px;">But in Nora's world, no one is ever truly powerless-a cadre of her friends, protectors and lovers stands ready to do anything to save her, even when the only certainty seems to be sacrifice and heartbreak....</span></i></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><i><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19px;">Sarai was only fourteen when her mother uprooted her to live in Mexico with a notorious drug lord. Over time she forgot what it was like to live a normal life, but she never let go of her hope to escape the compound where she has been held for the past nine years.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19px;">Victor is a cold-blooded assassin who, like Sarai, has known only death and violence since he was a young boy. When Victor arrives at the compound to collect details and payment for a hit, Sarai sees him as her only opportunity for escape. But things don’t go as planned and instead of finding transport back to Tucson, she finds herself free from one dangerous man and caught in the clutches of another.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19px;">While on the run, Victor strays from his primal nature as he succumbs to his conscience and resolves to help Sarai. As they grow closer, he finds himself willing to risk everything to keep her alive; even his relationship with his devoted brother and liaison, Niklas, who now like everyone else wants Sarai dead.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19px;">As Victor and Sarai slowly build a trust, the differences between them seem to lessen, and an unlikely attraction intensifies. But Victor’s brutal skills and experience may not be enough in the end to save her, as the power she unknowingly holds over him may ultimately be what gets her killed.</span></i></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><i><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19px;">My name is Tate. He doesn't call me that, though. He would never refer to me so informally, if he referred to me at all.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19px;">We're neighbors,and once, we were best friends. But then, one summer, he turned on me and has made it his mission to screw up my life at every opportunity. I've been humiliated, shut out, and gossiped about all through high school. His pranks and rumors got more sadistic as time wore on, and I made myself sick trying to hide from him. I worried about what was around every corner and behind every door. </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19px;">So I left.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19px;">I spent a year studying abroad and bathed in the freedom of life without Jared. Now I'm back to finish up high school and get the hell out of here forever. I'm hoping that after a year of breathing room, he's moved on and forgotten all about me. </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19px;">But even if he hasn't changed, I have. I'm not interested in avoiding him or turning the other cheek anymore. We're going to go head to head, because neither of us wants to back down.</span></i></span></div>

I need to read this!</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 18px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 18px;">But then I've read some reviews and wasn't so sure anymore.. There was a lot of people who questioned the reasons behind hero's bullying and my excitement sank! Oh, hell - I thought, what a shame :/ And I left it at that.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 18px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 18px;">Read few more books, but my thoughts kept side stepping me and coming </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 18px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 18px;">right back here..

It was perfect timing!!!</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 18px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 18px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 18px;">This book is true teen anxiety and emotional rollercoaster, but I loved it! I loved the thrill and the unknown!</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 18px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 18px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 18px;">So if you have doubts about this book - DON'T. It was almost perfect to me.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 18px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 18px;">I still had a hard time getting over his reasoning for ... well, let's say a lot of thing, but then I remembered that they're just teens and obviously not everyone can be as smart and I was, when I was a teenager! :D LMAO</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 18px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 18px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 18px;">So anyway, don't over-think it and just enjoy the ride!</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 18px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 18px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 18px;">Peace, </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 18px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 18px;">A.</span></span></div>
