Too much swearing for my taste but I liked the message of the book. Learning to drown is a difficult thing. The struggle that the main character went through is similar to my own struggles in many ways. I think that the story was well explained and the situations were clear on being safe, sane an...
This review has taken me a little while to write because I'm not sure how to put any of my thoughts into cohesive words for you guys. . . Let me first say, Sommer Marsden has never disappointed me with one of her books, so I jumped at the chance to review and host her without even reading the blu...
At first she had no clue where she was. Jill rolled to find him behind her, almost spooning her but not quite, and the thrill of feeling him there was too big to even contemplate. So she didn’t. Jill sat up and eyed the room. The TV had been clicked off and the lights were off too. He’d left the ...
And I was trying to escape. I needed to be near an accessible magic portal just in case. In case my magic got out of control from grief or just in case I wanted to turn Todd into a frog or something. I am totally joking. Okay, sort of joking. “And what do you think you can bring to Father Joseph,...
Wake up, El.” I sat up, reaching for a gun that wasn’t near me. It was over in the corner. It lay abandoned after our impromptu fight-fuck the night before. Evan was standing by the bus door, holding coffee. The wonderful smell of it hit me. I wanted it, but I heard a tone in his voice that set m...
SORRY. MAY NOT BE COMING. Casey picked her cuticle and then forced herself to stop before she bled. She held her breath as she waited for the phone’s patented chime. When it came she read: WELL IF UR WITH NICK, YOU’D BETTER COME ;) That made her laugh. Casey wondered how much of this was Annie an...
I waved to the guy backing up the moving truck. “Stop!” I yelled. He didn’t stop. He kept coming toward the fence that separated my brand new swamp of a front yard from the small country road. The truck gave off that incessant beep, beep, beep sound that simply makes you want to bang your head ag...
The thing about wooden porches is they made a lot of noise – like wooden floors and wooden staircases. Now that the boys were in their afterglow, I needed to beat feet. I backed down the steps and when my feet were firmly on concrete I turned to flee. Only I tripped on a crack and stumbled a bit ...
Mike next door?” Laura asked, spearing a single cucumber from her salad and chomping it with way more vigor than any ten-year-old should. Aubrey almost choked on her mouthful—large mouthful—of lasagna. “I…what?” she squeaked. “Well, I figured at some point you and Mr. Mike would go out.” She said...
He shouldn’t be shifting at all. Not after being shot. I’m afraid it will…” Kelly couldn’t bring herself to say it aloud. “Stop worrying. We won’t let anything happen to Garrett. He’s smart. He can’t be there for his mate if he’s dead. He’ll watch himself.” “Not with this girl. I don’t think he w...
I was tired. Too tired for this annoying shit. I had to admit, though, he looked devastatingly sexy in his cut-off sweatpants. They sat low on his hips and exposed some of my favorite sweet spots. Taut, rippled abs and those wonderful hollows right along his hipbones that lead straight to the goo...
I looked her up and down and she blushed slightly. I should say something, my nature was to rub it in, but this night had been what felt like one massive hallucination, so why mess even more with someone? “What is it now?” I sighed, tugging my top down. “Godzilla? Zombies? Vampires and werewolves...
Had they just done that? Had she really just come sort of unglued and a little anxiety riddled in his house and then fallen into his bed without preamble? Was she still dreaming? When Charlie smoothed her hair back and kissed her, she knew it was all as real as it felt. She kissed him back, sucki...
