Kiro's Emily by Abbi Glines *One More Chance spoilers*

Kiro's Emily is this one story that just sticks with you. I read read this yesterday and I just couldn't. Stop. Crying. As you know...... Or you may not know, Emily is Harlows mother. In One More Chance we are introduced to Kiro as a father and at the end we find out that Harlow's mother is not dead, but is paralyzed from an accident that had happened when Harlow was a baby. This story, however, is about more than that. Kiro's Emily tells the story of how Kiro and Emily first met to the accident, and all the events that happened in between. The whole story is such a heartbreaking story, because Abbi Glines has a talent of making us feel what the characters are feeling. So the ending completely distroyed me. I wont give any good moments away. I will say that if you read the Rosemary series, this story is one that you won't want to miss. This story makes you, in a way, understand just how much Kiro loved Emily. In One More Chance we get a pretty good idea of how much he does but reading from his POV and feeling what he felt the moment he got that phone call? I won't forget that moment. Kiro and Emily weren't just in love. They were soulmates. They were the perfect couple and for them to have such cruel fate? I just think its really unfair. 

I love books and I hope you do too!

TOP 10 BOOK FAVORITES OF 2014! CONGRATULATIONS!

This will be my top 10 of the series that made my 2014. This are series that I still remember and therefore made an impression on me. This are series that I recommend totally and without a doubt to anyone. What are yours? *Sneaky Smile*

Number 1....... The Addicted series by Krista and Becca Ritchie

We all saw this coming. In my lifetime I've yet to read a contemporary that is this magnificent. This series legit changed me. I've never read such amazing writing, and never cried harder than with Krista and Becca. I hope they write for a long time because I am always going to read whatever they write. You won a fan this year!

Number 2....... Kingdom Series by Marie Hall

This series made me so happy. It brought back in a way all the memories I had as a child. I loved the fairy tale twist and the way it's such a quick but amazing read. I gave each book in this series 5 stars and I finished all of it in a day. And even though there's a lot of books, it doesn't feel like a lot. It feels like you're going through a never ending story that you never want it to end. I would definitely recccomend this to anyone. Amazing job!

Number 3......... Just one day by Gale Forman

This book....... It certainly left an impresion on me. The story was going so so good and the plot was just amazing. I loved the dynamic between this characters. But I don't get the ending. That was my problem with this story. And even though I wouldn't necessarily recommend this to anyone, it's one of my favorites this year because it opened my eyes to good writing and to an amazing story. 

Number 4....... Temptation series by Ella Frank 

THIS SERIES WAS SO AMAZING I SWEAR. The series is not over yet but so far this series left a mark on me that will never go away. In the summer of 2014 I was in a book hump, and desperately needed a salvation. So when I found this book, I was hesitant, since M/M smut was never my thing...... Well I was wrong. Turns out M/M is so my thing. I loved it, and it was even better than a contemporary that you would normally read. The sex was so steamy I had to pause sometimes to catch my breath. The angst left you drowning in you're own tears. And Tate and Logan did everything in their power to make sure I wanted to be with them even tho it will never happen. I gave this books a 55555555555% because of delirious endings.

Number 5......... The Dark Elements by Jennifer L Armenstraut

As you may know, I'm a super duper JLA fan. I love all her writing and always welcome more. So when I found out White Hot Kiss was coming out this year, I completely freaked. I preordered it and started coping because this would be the main series now that Lux is over. And it reached my expectations. It was amazing and the romance was never a moment disappointing. JLA writting makes me happy, and this series and the characters certainly did. Loved it!

Number 6....... Opposition by Jennifer L Armenstraut 

I was so sad when this book came out because it's the last book in the lux series. I started this series back in 2013and when Origin came out I reread the first 3. Then thus one came out and I sobbed. Why? Because it meant my favorite series in the whole wide world would never get another book. I will never be able to go to the bookstore in search of that precious Lux book. And I cry because of that. But the book was perfection. It was beyond anything I imagined. I thought it would be good, but it hooked me until the very last page. I couldn't put it down. There were Avengers references, for Christ sake! Harry Potter references! How in the world do you want me to not put it down. But when I finished it I just........ I don't want to talk about it. A 100000 stars!!!!

Number 7........ Iron Fey series by Julie Kagawa

I read this back when I was in Europe, cause I bought them a little before my trip so I wouldn't be bored. I had never heard of this books, but I had heard of Julie Kagawa so that gave me a little hope....... I devoured the books in 3 weeks. I couldn't put it down. I think it drove my mother crazy because I was reading half the time we were there and wasn't paying attention to anything. How could I tho? If I had this amazing book in my hands! I loved Ash and Puck and Meghan was so badass and the whole bromance between Ash and Puck will never die in my memory. It's a journey to remember.

Number 8....... Monsters in the Dark series by Pepper Winters

This was probably the darkest contemporary books I have ever read. I cried a little in some parts, but it was amazing. It blew me away how amazing this girl who was kidnapped and dragged away from everything she has ever known become such an amazing badass woman. Then again after everything she lived, who wouldn't? But her? She was beyond amazing. I have so much respect for her because people may say that she's weak because of what he enjoys and how she lets him do that to her, but I think she's the strongest character I have ever read in a contemporary romance. 

Number 9...... More Series by Jay McLean

I cried since th first book. I'm not even kidding. This series was just tears and fluffiness and tears and angst. The first and last book blew me away. I stayed up all night finishing each book because of how amazing they were. I don't get why I didn't read it earlier. The way the characters tell the stories and the last book oh man the last book was tears tears tears and happiness. I couldn't stop crying and laughing. This is definitely my best experience in a romance series. Almost as good as the Addicted series 

Number 10....... Amour Amour by Krista and Becca Ritchie

This book.... Oh man this book blew me away. I feel like I'm saying that to all this 10 books but it's the truth! Krista and Becca will never disappoint me! Ever! The story and the romance and the sex and the couples just the whole thing is amazing! I did a review on Amour Amour last month and an interview and I was so excited for this book it made me want to cry when I finished it! Krista and Becca are my faves and will always be xxo

Well there you have it! My top 10 series/ books of 2014! I hope next year I get as many good books as this year! 

Also I completed my Goodreads Challange of 120 books to 122! Princess or what?

I love books and I hope you do too!

Amour Amour

I'm sorry for posting this so late! I'm already one book behind *cries*. I just wanted to plan this to the maximum because this book, even though it was a stand alone, was absolutely beautiful! I loved Nikolai and Thora and their dynamic and how much they loved each other! I loved the characters and the friends and I even gained a new ship! and OMG my babies were in this book. Remember how in the Interview Krista and Becca told us that the Calloway sisters were going to be in this book? Well they were! OMG I was so excited and to see Thora fangirl over Lily and Rose and Daisy! It was like a dream come true *heart eyes* I have so many things to say about this book so just sit back and enjoy. This is going to be a long one.

Captivated by You Review


Annoyance. That is my first emotion when I finished this book. Total and Utter annoyance towards Eva Grey and Gideon Cross. The things they did on this book were absolutely UGHHHH. Honestly, Gideon needs to learn to not stick his nose in things that he shouldn't be involved in and Eva needs to learn to be more compasive (how do you even spell that?). Literally, the man almost lost you ones. You cant blame him to want to protect you. I get that he's doing things in quite a bad manner, but  you shouldn't judge him so harshly. Most of this characters were good but kind of annoying, but in some ways I loved this book. I love reading Eva and Gideon's love story, no matter what. They remind me a lot of Christian and Ana, except for the fact that Gideon definitely has more baggage than Christian. The last book was definitely intense, especially the plane scene, but this book was just Eva facing her fears straight ahead. I loved seeing Gideon face his issues and Eva helping him and I loved seeing their relationship grow and I loved seeing Eva become independent. I will always love this series. Lets start.

When You're Back ******COVER & SUMMARY REVEAL******

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Abbi Glines comes the next new adult novel in her beloved Rosemary Beach series, which continues the story of Mase and Reese from When I’m Gone.
The future is bright for Reese Ellis. She has Mase Colt-Manning, the man of her dreams, and a family she didn’t know existed until her long-lost father arrived on her doorstep in Rosemary Beach. After growing up with a cruel mother and abusive stepfather, Reese is eager to get to know the caring and charming man who wants to be a part of her life. Everything is finally falling into place.
While Reese is visiting her new family in Chicago, Mase spends time with his “cousin,” Aida, who has worshipped him since childhood. Though they’re unrelated by blood, Mase and Aida have been raised to think of each other as family. But when Reese returns, she can tell something isn’t quite right with Aida, who clearly resents Reese and excels at manipulative little games. And though Mase is unsuspecting, Reese knows Aida doesn’t love him like a cousin should... 
 I literally just posted the cover reveal for "When I'm Gone" and I go to the goodreads page and guess what? There is another cover for the second book.... and I love both of them. I love the country touch, like I mentioned in the last one, and I love how its kind of 70ish. The cartoonish touch, like old televition. I love it. It's a gorgeous cover and personally I'm so excited for this one. 

By what I'm reading from the summary, there is a lot of angst involved and I can deduce that Mase is probably gonna be oblivious towards Aida and Reese is probably going to suffer..... alot. 

*sigh*

I love Abbi but why so much angst. I can see myself loving Reese and feeling so so sorry for her in this book. And hating Mase a little bit. 


*ME READING THE BOOK (PROBABLY)*

I love Books and I hope you do too

When I'm Gone ****COVER & SUMMARY REVEAL****

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Abbi Glines comes the next new adult novel in the Rosemary Beach series, in which we meet Mase, a Texas heartthrob first introduced in Take a Chance who comes to Rosemary Beach to stir things up.
I had an urge to fix all her problems. Which was stupid. She was doing fine without me. But something about those big eyes…
Mase Colt-Manning has always preferred his humble life as a Texas rancher to his birthright as the son of a legendary rock star. In fact, he rarely visits his father’s rarefied world in Rosemary Beach, especially if it means bunking at his vile half-sister Nan’s house—until one visit leads to a chance encounter with a young, gorgeous house maid who awakens him with her off-key but spirited imitation of a country music star…
Reese Ellis finally has her freedom. After escaping a lifetime of abuse from her parents and classmates for an undiagnosed learning disorder, she seizes the opportunity to be a house maid to some of the richest families in Rosemary Beach. But her job is in jeopardy when she causes an accident at the home of her most important client, Nan Dillon. When a hot, half-naked stranger with a cowboy’s swagger comes to her rescue, she’s intrigued—then afraid once he shows his own interest. Reese has never met a trustworthy man in her life. Will Mase be any different?

Its not what I expected- the summary that is. I love the cover and the country touch it has! Mase is drool worthy, but I honestly thought Mase would end up with Nan.....I dont know why..... But I'm positive it will be an amazing story with an amazing beggining middle and an ending that will leave me a mess

I love Abbi Glines and her stories are so beautiful, it never fails to make me cry. I was a mess in Take a Chance, and I was crying since page one, so I'm really really excited for "When i'm gone"!

Toxic by Rachel Van Dyke


Before I start ranting about how interesting this book was, let me just say that this, like all the other Van Dyke's work, is not you're typical love story. This book has some factors that I absolutely loved, some I didn't loved so much. Don't get me wrong, this book was amazing, it just wasn't as easy going as I thought. Then again, when is Rachel's work easygoing. There is Ruin, which as I said in my Ruin Posy, it completely shattered me. Now, Unlike Ruin, toxic deals with themes stronger and much more heartbreaking. It deals with a guy trying to be a hero, and selfishly choosing the wrong options when life is giving him so much more. Its about a girl who loves a guy so much she's willing to take whatever she can as long as she can be with the guy
 she loves. Lets start......
