When 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.
They both soon find themselves drowning in a sea of desire and passion that won’t let them up for air.
Sebastian knows firsthand secrets never die, and he’s not the only one who’s hiding them.
Loving someone always comes with a price. But will it be Shea’s past that costs them everything?

For one rapturous second, time stood still as I got lost in a face that had to be the most beautiful I’d ever seen. It wasn’t perfect, and maybe that was the problem. His full, full lips were a little crooked on one side, his cheekbones high and defined, his jaw all severe, sharp angles and coated in what had to be three days of scruff. A scar split through his right eyebrow, making it appear lower on that side, and there was a trace of another at the bottom of his chin.
But it was the hardness burning from his strange grey eyes that knocked the breath from my lungs.
No, not perfect.
Just beautiful and dark and a little bit frightening.

WOW!! What an amazing, unique story!!
Never Never was fast-paced, thrilling, mysterious, exciting, romantic, and kept me guessing the whole way though. I literally could not put it down and I can’t wait for the next book in this fantastic new series!!!
Best friends since they could walk.
In love since the age of fourteen.
Complete strangers since this morning.He’ll do anything to remember.
She’ll do anything to forget.
— Spoiler-free review. —
This is the first book of a series co-written by Colleen Hoover and Tarryn Fisher. Colleen wrote the guy’s POV, Tarryn wrote the girl’s, and the two halves of the story were blended together seamlessly.
This is going to be a shorter review because my honest opinion is that it’s best to go into this book knowing as little as possible about the actual story so I won’t tell you anything that’ll ruin the experience here. But I can say that I was hooked from the very first page and completely drawn into these characters’ lives.
The only things I knew before starting it other than what the blurb said was that it was a real-world story (somewhere between YA and NA) with a very slight paranormal twist to it. Just to clarify that a little: there are no vampires or ghosts or any such beings, it’s more just in the background in a subtle, undefined, but enthralling way. But I don’t want to say more though because I want you to let it unfold as you read.
Dozens of theories about what could be happening to these characters were constantly playing in my head as I flew through the pages, and then just when I began to think I had an idea where the story was going, a surprising new layer to the mystery was revealed that sent full body chills running through me!!
The ending was a bit of a cliffhanger, but it was a very exciting one (not an oh-crap-why?! one). It was a very logical stopping point but it also spun the story in a crazy cool new direction that opened up such thrilling possibilities for the next book! Really, truly… don’t wait to start this series — just dive right in!
There’s a reason we’ve come to love Colleen and Tarryn’s writing. They’ve earned our trust and fully deserve it. With Never Never, they delivered a suspenseful, captivating, heart-pounding page turner with a love story at it’s core. I’m absolutely addicted to this series and can’t wait to see what happens next!
“I’m gonna make you fall in love with me again.”

I have a very special giveaway for you today!!!
I have one last signed original indie copy of Hopeless by Colleen Hoover left and you can enter to win it right here!! I’ve been waiting for a special occasion to give it away and I figured that the end of 2014 was the perfect time!! — This cover is no longer available for purchase so it’s definitely a copy to treasure.
If you haven’t read Hopeless yet, I can’t recommend it highly enough!! It’s certainly one of my top favorites!! It can be read as a standalone but, if you fall in love with it (as I’m sure you will), you can then read Losing Hope (Holder’s POV/ story), and Finding Cinderella (spin-off novella).

— ABOUT THE SERIES —
Note: the eBook and paperback covers are different, but the story is the same.
Their body art is hot.
Their chemistry is even hotter.
From her dark hair sweeping below her waist to her soft, sexy curves, Tenley Page intrigues tattoo artist Hayden Stryker in a way no one else ever has…especially when she asks him to ink a gorgeous, intricate design on her back. Yet for all her beauty, there is something darkly tragic and damaged about Tenley that Hayden is everything.
Covered in ink and steel, Hayden is everything Tenley has never dared to want, awakening a desire to explore more than the art adorning his stunning body. Trapped by a past that leaves her screaming from nightmares, Tenley sees Hayden as the perfect escape. Although he has secrets too, if they both keep themselves guarded perhaps their intense physical connection will remain only that.
But nothing, not even passion, can keep them safe from their pasts…
