“Herpes isn’t airborne”

“Yeah, you say that now, but then it mixes with chlamydia and genital warts then you have a super-strain of herpes”

As I have said before, I am a huge fan of Jennifer's books and her series'. She is an imaginative novelist and I look forward to her books.

She has just the correct amount of torment to make it an intense story. Her humor and smart ass comments keep me laughing through the book.


Most of us have fallen in love with our best friend at one point in our lives. Syd is not different; she is in love with and has always been in love with Kyler.
Sydney is meek and small; she does her best to stay under the radar. She never seeks out the spotlight. Kyler is her exact opposite; he is always looking for attention usually in a woman.



This book is set in a winter wonderland, where even the most closed off person has no choice but to open up.

They get stuck in a cabin together in the middle of nowhere during a snowmageddon.

Now let’s add way too many shots of Ta-Kill-Ya and Syd gets 10 feet tall and bulletproof! Syd makes a move on Kyler in her drunken state and trying to be a gentleman he puts a stop to it. Causing Syd to question herself in all the way a girl never should. Her ex has basically made her think she is unwanted and un-sexy, now with Kyler’s refusal she now believes she is that and worse.

Eventually Kyler accepts Syd’s advances, although he is not happy about what she wants.
He believes she deserves more that a quick fuck and turned loose.

See... Kyler has always been in love with Syd and he wants to be with her desperately. But he knows she should have better than him.

Can their friendship survive their love?

Found (The Crescent Chronicles #3) By :Alyssa Rose Ivy

Oh Levi, Levi what will we do without you!

So many spirals in this story you don’t know what is going on. What a way to finish a series! You think you know who is bad and who is not… good luck with that!

Boy did Toby throw me for a loop!

This book picks up right where we left off. All the stress from the pending wedding, Levi’s Dad, Toby kidnapping Jess is taking a toll on Allie. 

Allie goes to visit Georgiana, Levi's grandmother for help with the Pteron issues. Now Grandma is a character, she is a force to reckon with!  That woman is in charge of everything and everyone, and she is Allie’s best partner in crime! Georgiana is able to help Allie in a way that no one else knows how too. She helps with understanding her love for Levi, her father in law and the crazy Pteron attraction.

(Spoiler Alert) The cave scene is romantic and HOTT!  

Now what I didn't see coming was Toby. By far that was the largest shocker in this series. Who knew he was a true good guy!

Also, look at little Allie making friends with other Pteron Families to rescue Jess and Elliott. 

The drama, the suspense and the love that is in these books make this a must read paranormal/supernatural romance series.

Empire Chronicles

I’m not ready to say goodbye to the Pterons. In fact, I have a whole new Pteron story to share with you guys. These books will pick up after Found ends, and they'll be lots of familiar faces, but they will not be Crescent books.
I’m excited to announce the Empire Chronicles!

SQUEEEEE!!!!

Axel (Corps Security #1) By: Harper Sloan

“Fate might hate me, but that doesn't stop me from hoping one day she forgets about her favorite chew toy. When that day comes I hope karma has some fun with that bitch fate” 

I love a good book about a Military man. This was a GREAT one!
Brilliant debut novel by Harper Sloan.

You fall in love with the idea of Izzy and Axel in the first few pages. Then your heart shatters in a billion pieces for Izzy. Her life was on a great path; she had true love, great parents and a wonderful future. Then in a flash it came crashing down around her.

After her world stops spinning, she marries a complete ass-hat, Brandon that uses Izzy for whatever he feels like. You hate Brandon in about .0002 seconds. 

Her best friend, Denise comes to the rescue and yanks Izzy out of the HELL she now survives in. 

“Cut off from those I loved and so terrified of his wrath; I wasn’t going anywhere. Those were the years I prayed and prayed for Axel to find his way back to me… but I
eventually had to face the facts… my hero was gone.”

Denise is a smart girl and doesn’t come by herself, she brings some serious muscle. Enter the HUGE and gorgeous Greg Cage, Marine and Security Advisor. G takes a protective attitude towards Denise and Izzy. 

They try to put Izzy back together and happy. This is a full time occupation for all of them. But ass-hat Brandon will just not go away. He is like a bad rash that just flairs back up at the worst time! G is determined to find the cure for Brandon at any cost.

G calls his Marine brothers and Security Advisors, Cooper, Maddox, Beck and Reid. They will solve this mess and save his Izzy.

But who does Izzy belong too? 

So many things happen after they come to help out that you're sucked into the book even more.

There are no cliff hangers for Axel and Izzy, the next book in this series is Cage's book and I fell for him too!

This Man Confessed (This Man #3) By: Jodi Ellen Malpas

3...2...1...

ZERO BABY!

Book: Series: This Man Trilogy
Stars:  5

I have a love/hate relationship with trilogy books.

1. I have no patients whatsoever...None!
So waiting on the series to finish is truthfully excruciating for me.

2. I love following the story and learning more of what makes my favorite characters who they are.

3. I read at a speed that I can’t even use our local libraries.(Again see #1)

4. It seems like an eternity before the series is complete (Again see #1)

5. Then sometimes… you get disappointed at how the story ends.
Maddening as all hell… CRAZY MAD!

“This Man Confessed” is not one of those books.

THANK THE LORD of the manor for that!

I love Jesse even though he makes me crazy mad sometimes! The final book is a great finish to an incredible trilogy. But now I am suffering from Jesse withdrawal.

The book embraces all the necessary characteristics to make a great story and a solid finish.
I loved finding out more about Jesse and his past and seeing how Ava would deal with all of that.

Now I am going to caution you... My Kindle was in danger of being tossed out the window at one point! I was as pissed off as a wet cat! But I stuck through it and made it out the other side!

This series is full of extreme hot headedness, hotter sex and a lot of mysteries.

I would put this series on your “must absolutely read list”

“You keep my heart beating, baby, but you can also make it fucking stop.”

Multi POV

“Two souls with but a single thought, 

  Two hearts that beat as one!"

― John Keats

4 Souls

4 Lives

1 Goal

This is the first book I have read from Kristie Cook. If her other books are half as good as this one, she has a new fan.

This book has different characters and the POV switches between the past and the present times.

Jacquelena 'Leni' Drago is a dancer that is sent to Italy by her favorite Uncle to follow her dreams. On her last night in Italy she sees Jeremicah 'Jeric' Winters a gorgeous man that catches her attention in a bar, they never really meet. But fate has other plans in store for them. They seem to be in the same place at the same time at the airport and have a chat over coffee. Leni is headed back to the Atlanta and Jeric is headed to London then to Miami. Jeric’s flight gets canceled to Miami and he is diverted to Atlanta, right to Leni. 

Then things start to get weird! People come up missing, people forget them and Leni and Jeric can't seem to stay away from each other, no matter how hard they try!!

Then we meet Jacey and Micah who seem to be experiencing the same issues as Leni and Jeric. 

They are driven together by a force much stronger than both of them.

How does this all tie together? 

Will anyone be able to complete the journey?

This book has good guys and bad guys; it takes a while before you can guess who might be noble and who is not. This book leaves you guessing on every page.

Once I started this book I could not stop. I can't wait to see what happens next.

The cliffhanger is a remarkable one… so many questions.
