Deep Blue Secret



I actually just finished reading this book yesterday... I was soo intrigued by it and the characters...

Sadie is such a likeable girl... Everyone loves and adores her... But something seems off with her and she doesn't know what it is... She meets this mysterious handsome HOT guy and she immediately falls for him.. She can't stop thinking about him... He's always there for her when she's in trouble...

Rayne (the HOT guy) is so caring... He is gentle with Sadie and is always there for her... There is such an intensity between them, but they both know that they can't act on it... He has too many secrets that he can't share with her... Sadie is ok with it, as long as she can hang out with him...

I like the fact that it didn't have anything to do with Vampires or Warewolves... Don't get me wrong, I like both of them, but it's nice to read something different. And this is what this book is. Different... It's very clean... There is such a mystery to it... I was oh so excited to learn more about Sadie and what is so special about her... I do have the admit, the ending is such a "WHAT???? Are you seriously ending it like this???" It leaves you intrigued and wanting more. I am definitely looking forward to reading the second book in this series... Now that I know that Rayne LOVES Sadie, I can't wait to see what will happen next...

Prince of Wolves

So, Prince of Wolves... Yeah... I absolutely LOVED it!!!
Jacque meets the mysterious Fane from Romania... She freaks out because she can hear HIS voice in her head! Ouch... She thinks she's loosing her mind, until he explains that she is like his soul mate and that is why they can communicate with each other... How cool is that, to be able to just look into your mate's mind and talk to them privately... No using text messages, emails or phones calls...
Anyways, I enjoyed the book very much... I definitely enjoyed Jacques best friends Sally & Jen... Those girls are insane...Those girls are hillarious... They are so nosy and very perky... Always on top of things, especially when it pertains to Fane and Jacque... Jen is awesome with her personality... I think she is what every girl wants in a best friend... She has a spunk to her... The setting is what makes it more interesting... I LOVE that Southern drawl that the girls have...
I enjoyed reading/watching as Fane & Jacque's relationship grows... She realizes that she can't be without him and that she really really wants him... I mean, who wouldn' fall for the Romanian Hunk that drives a motorcycle?... Right??? I know I would in a heart beat ;) ... I really enjoyed this book... I can't wait for the release of Blood Rites!!! It will be interesting to see the turn of events in the next book... You know it's bound to be interesting...

So, last month Cheri Schmidt had a giveaway on her blog page.... Of course I entered it because I absolutely LOVE her books... and, I WON!!! I got my book in the mail yesterday... I was soo excited when I got home and opened my mailbox. There was a package from Cheri Schmidt... After I got the kids settled in and the dogs fed, I hurried and opened my package... Oh so cool... And it came with a hand made book mark (?)!!!
Another book to add to my collection... I'll cherish this one because I absolutely adore the story and the characters... Ethan is such a handsome gentlemen... Such a Mr. Darcy! Now, what girl doesn't love a Mr. Darcy... My husband swears that he is going to hide my Pride and Prejudice movie because I watch it so much... hahaha...
Anyways, just wanted to say that I was excited that I won it and that I received it... I'll definitely be sharing with my nieces... and anyone else that is interested in giving this great author a chance!!!

Switched




So, back in May I decided to start reading again. I knew that I couldn't afford a published book (I'm addicted to reading) so I started looking around. I realized that there are Independant Self Published authors out there that are good. I gave it a try, and the first book that I read was Switched by Amanda Hocking. I read a little bit about her and thought, wow, how amazing... To self publish your own book and become successful. Now that is something else.

With that being said, I started her book. Let me tell you that I couldn't put the book down. It was that good. Amanda Hocking creates a world that is so believable. I was completely blown away by it. I was drawn into the world that she creates. I wasn't so fond of her spelling (but hey, I can overlook that). I mean, she did self publish the book. Not everyone is perfect. I enjoyed it because she "tells" the story of Wendy and how she learns of her life and who she really is. She learns of the trials that are set for her and how to overcome them. Now, it can't be a book (at least for me) unless there is some kind of romance to it. Add Finn Holmes to the book and it's perfect. (At least in my eyes). They have feelings for each other but because of her "Blood line" and who she is they can't have a relationship... Snaps... What's a good romance book with out that kind of trouble???

Well, needless to say, I finished the book. And because I enjoyed it Oh So Much, I moved on to the next book in the series. Oh, did I mention that I finished reading the book in a day and a half... YES... This is what I mean when I say that I have a book addiction... Not cool when you have to pay $10-$15 per book... Which is why it was awesome that I only had to pay LITERALLY a couple of dollars at the most... AWESOME!!!

So thanks to Amanda Hockings, I learned to LOVE Indie Authors!!! Some have become my favorite authors... ;) And since I first picked up this book, I have read at least 100 books... I'm not kidding either... Look at my kindle Library... Almost ALL of them are from Indie Authors!!!

Team Ash!!!

The following post is for: Iron Knight ARC Contest: A day with Ash (or Puck)!!!

Wow... So tempting...

My day would have to be with Ash!!!

I wouldn't want to take him away from Meghan so I would set up a picnic and have him tell me ALL about his life. I would love to know how and when he realized he fell in love with Meghan. Their LOVE story... I would love to know of the experiences that he has had throughout his life and a little bit more of what it was like when he and Puck use to be "friends".
I know that it doesn't sound so exciting but given that I love the romance between Meghan and Ash, why would I want him for me??? I mean, it's their story!!!!
