ABBI GLINES UPDATE!! Tripp (from Twisted Perfection) is getting his own book! I loved him and it makes me so happy to see secondary characters get a chance in the spotlight. Also, Grant will be getting a book!! Maybe even two! With the first one expected out in December of this year ♥

Last night I suddenly became brave and started a book I’ve been wanting to start forever now but have been too scared too –> The Fault In Our Stars by John Green. I won’t lie, the subject matter scares the hell out of me but I read some absolutely beautiful quotes that made me just HAVE to try it out. Here is a quote from my reading last night that I just LOVED –> “Sometimes, you read a book and it fills you with this weird evangelical zeal, and you become convinced that the shattered world will never be put back together unless and until all living humans read the book.” ♥

NEW REVIEW!! We’ve all read the stories of first love and second-chance love… but few stories are actually about a marriage. I loved Arouse by Nina Lane! Check out my spoiler-free review.

“His hands tighten on mine. “You’re so damn strong, Liv, and you don’t even realize it… And you… You’re the first person whose ever… Christ, Liv, sometimes the way you look at me makes me feel like I can hang the fucking moon.” ♥

EMANCIPATING ANDIE is LIVE!! This is a standalone romance set against the backdrop of a road trip. It’s a very relaxing read. Great for after a dark/angsty book!!

BLURB –> Lanie Heron isn’t looking for love—no surprise, considering her last serious relationship nearly got her killed. So when Lanie propositions Hop Kincaid, all she wants is one wild night with the hot-as-hell biker who patrols with the Chaos Motorcycle Club…
.
For Hop, Lanie has always been untouchable. She’s too polished and too classy for his tastes. But when she gives Hop the once-over with her bedroom eyes and offers him a night in paradise, he can’t say no. And he doesn’t regret it when he finds that Lanie is the best thing that’s ever happened to him—in or out of bed. Now the trick will be to convince her of that.
