<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I've made no secret of the fact that my Fifty Shades started my insane obsession with reading. Since him, I've had many fictional men and have loved blabbing about them with you all! I have to give major kudos to the bloggers to go at alone, because it's tough! When I decided to snag myself a co-blogger, there was only one choice for me-- my lovely Bianca. She is the sweetest ever and I heart her so hard! I truly could not have asked for a better partner in crime and a better BBF (best book friend, of course). It's going to be oh so hard to share her, but I will try my best not to be stingy! This is a bittersweet day for me, as I'm sure it is for Bianca. B&B is our baby and we're sad to say goodbye. But we're so very excited to be joining Adriana, Ava, Brianna, Derna, Kat, and Stacy! Even with so many women, we've somehow made it work and these ladies are some of the best out there. I feel very lucky to have made such incredible friends since I've started blogging and I can't wait to see what other fun things lie ahead for all of us!</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Words cannot express how bittersweet this moment is. When
Brittany approached me to join her on this blog adventure, I was ecstatic! I
had always wanted to blog, but was not sure how to go about doing so alone. Brittany
and I met through a Goodreads group and have been inseparable ever since!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Our love for Christian Grey and Mr.
Darcy (THE book boyfriend) is what truly connected us! We are truly book
soul mates abut I also consider Brittany a great friend!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Brittany you have been the best
co-blogger EVAH and I am SO excited we get to continue our journey of
blogging<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>with six other wonderful
girls! I will try my best to share you, but it's going to be hard. <3 Our joined venture of Brittany and Bianca Blab Books has been exciting
and worthwhile!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> Thank you for allowing me to blog with you these past few months. They have been THE best!

<span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial;">Through it all, there's been one constant:
wanting, needing, loving, and protecting Brooke Dumas. This is his story; from
the first moment he laid eyes on her and knew, without a doubt, she would be
the realest thing he's ever had to fight for.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I
was provided an ARC in exchange for an honest review.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 15.0pt; margin-bottom: 13.0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
As
with the previous books in this series, Real and Mine, Remy was raw,
passionate, sexy, and emotional. I really enjoyed that we get to see inside of
Remy’s head and his thought during pivotal moments between him and Brooke.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 15.0pt; margin-bottom: 13.0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">“You’re mine. My obsession. My
dreams. My hope. My heart.<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 15.0pt; margin-bottom: 13.0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
Remy
is definitely an alpha male and we certainly see this in his POV. From the
moment he puts his eyes on Brooke, he stakes his claim. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Remy’s possessiveness is taken to a
different level in this story. He is stubborn, loving, passionate, and all
male. Any fan of Remy is going to devour this as we get to see every side of
Remy-the good and the bad. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 15.0pt; margin-bottom: 13.0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
I
enjoyed that the author shared moments in Remy, where I wondered what Remy was
thinking. To his “black” moments, to fights, to his declaration of love to
Brooke.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>To admitting that he is
capable and worthy of love. Remy is raw and exposed. We are given the chance to
see every emotion-love, passion, hurt, and even betrayal. Your heart truly goes
out to Remy as you get to experience is inner thoughts.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 15.0pt; margin-bottom: 13.0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">“Protecting you is my privilege. I
will protect you and everything that you value as if it were mine”<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 15.0pt; margin-bottom: 13.0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
I
loved the ending of Remy. It was everything I wanted and more. To be able to
experience his happy ending was beyond words. It was amazing to see a dark,
broken man change over time. Remy was always a beautiful soul, but it took love
to discover this. <span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 14pt;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 14pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">For Cadence Miller, the fast track to adulthood proves intimidating and frustrating. She’s a little girl lost—abandoned by her parents and uncertain of her future. She doesn’t think she “fits” anywhere. She’s eighteen. She wants to be older. And the result is both comical and heartbreaking.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Mark Connelly will do anything to provide Cadence a stable, loving home—to be her protector. But he’s just as broken and lost, and his heart won’t let go of his past so easily. He knows he must share his secret with Cadence. And he hopes his revelation won't tear them apart. He hopes it will draw them closer, and make their love better.</span></div>

to deal with the aftermath. Mark and Cadence are in love more than ever, and
are determined for their relationship to work. However, when Mark’s secret
comes to light, things don’t go as planned. I cannot say I expected this
secret. When we learn about it, I appreciate Mark even more. Through the
darkness he was able to find light, in Cadence. In spite of pain, he opened up
his heart to someone when it may have even seemed possible before.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #181818; font-family: Georgia;">We truly get to see Mark and Cadence, grow as individuals as
well as a couple. They argue, they make up. They are like any other couple, but
with obstacles. These obstacles include Cadence’s family that will not accept
that Cadence has found love with her now former teacher. The realism aspect of
this book is what I found very interesting. The characters were so relatable
and real. S. Walden writes with such true emotion and conviction. She holds
nothing back. She allows us to see her characters are they are, flaws and all.
Her story pushes the envelope makes you uncomfortable, but isn’t that what
reading is about? To challenge the reader and make them go places they didn’t
they could go? Or think about things that they wouldn’t have before? You
question your beliefs and that is why I enjoy this author’s style of writing.
She challengers her readers.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #181818; font-family: Georgia;">I really enjoyed Good, but Better brought this series to a whole
different level. Mark has such a beautiful soul. For him to love Cadence with
such passion was amazing.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Every
word you felt. Every emotion was experienced as I read this story. I laughed,
cried, and swooned. I read this all in one sitting because putting it down was
not an option.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

rainbows and roses relationship, you’re wrong. If you are looking for a
heart-felt, emotional, gripping book about forbidden love and how it is conquered
then you NEED this book. If you believe that love is above all things, this is
a must-read. Love never fails. Love conquers.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

through the windshield. Any minute now, Cadence, dressed in graduation robe and
cap, would round the corner with her brother and Fanny. All he wanted was to
see her smile.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">He knew her parents didn’t show
up. They made their intentions clear three nights ago when Cadence called home
to speak to her mother. After she hung up, she told Mark she didn’t care that
they refused to attend, but he awoke later that night to the sounds of her soft
cries. She was curled up lying close to the edge of the bed, far away from him.
He reached out to touch her, then stopped. Something told him not to, that it’d
be disastrous if he tried to comfort her. So he left her alone. The next
morning she was bright and cheery and as fake as he’d ever seen her.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">He thought back to the first
time he saw her really smile. She grinned at him on the side of Highway 28, but
it wasn’t until she sat on a metal bench in the bus parking lot on the first
day of school that he saw a real smile. She giggled about the names she’d been
calling him, revealing pretty teeth with one imperfection. She had a calcium
deposit on her eye tooth. Yeah, he’d noticed. And he recalled feeling like a
total creep for liking it so much.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">S. Walden used to teach English before making the best decision of her life by becoming a full-time writer. She lives in Georgia with her very supportive husband who prefers physics textbooks over fiction and has a difficult time understanding why her characters must have personality flaws. She is wary of small children, so she has a Westie instead. Her dreams include raising chickens and owning and operating a beachside inn on the Gulf Coast (chickens included). When she's not writing, she's thinking about it.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Kricket
Hollowell is normally not one to wish upon stars; she believes they’re rarely
in her favor. Well versed at dodging caseworkers from Chicago’s foster care
system, the past few years on her own have made Kricket an expert at the art of
survival and blending in. With her 18th birthday fast approaching, she dreams
of the day when she can stop running and find what her heart needs most: a
home.</span></div>

Allairis hates Earth and doubts that anyone from his world can thrive here.
What he’s learning of Kricket and her existence away from her true home only
confirms his theory. But, when he and Kricket lie together under the stars of
Ethar, counting them all may be easier than letting her go.</span></div>

Ensin’s secrets number the stars; he knows more about Kricket's gifts than

valuable than any fire in the night sky. He’ll move the heavens and align them
all in order to make her his own.</span></div>

<div class="normal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I
glance at Trey; he looks like an advertisement for Calvin Klein. Wearing only
dark, athletic boxers, he’s something out of a catalog or a warrior movie.
Blushing deeply, I want to crawl under the rock I’m on. “Wade into the water
together. We should tie you two so that you’re face-to-face with both your
heads above the water,” Jax says. Trey nods, extending his hand for me to take.</span></div>
<div class="normal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Avoiding
looking at him, I stand up, walking to the water’s edge on my own. Dipping my
toes in the water, I pull them back sharply. “It’s freezing!” I glower at them,
hearing my voice echo off the walls again.</span></div>
<div class="normal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">“It
is,” Trey agrees, scooping me up in his arms and wading out quickly into the
water before I can object further. When he is chest deep, he says softly in my
ear, “Breathe.”</span></div>
<div class="normal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Clinging
to him tightly with my arms around his neck, I inhale deeply before muttering,
“Shh...you’re interrupting my revenge plotting.”</span></div>
<div class="normal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">“If
you survive this, I’ll insist that you learn to swim,” he says, sounding
annoyed as Jax wades to us with a line, circling us.</span></div>
<div class="normal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">“If I
survive this, I’m killing you,” I reply dryly, feeling the rope tense, drawing
me tighter against Trey’s warm body.</span></div>
<div class="normal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">A
small smile touches his lips at my comment. “How do you propose to do that?” He
gazes into my eyes as Jax knots us together.</span></div>
<div class="normal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">“I’ll
let you spend some sleepless nights worrying about that,” I reply, my teeth
beginning to chatter as the cold water is chilling me to the bone.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I live in
Michigan with my husband and our two sons. My family is very supportive of my
writing. When I’m writing, they often bring me the take-out menu so that I can
call and order them dinner. They listen patiently when I talk about my
characters like they’re<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>real. They
rarely roll their eyes when I tell them I’ll only be a second while I finish
writing a chapter…and then they take off their coats. They ask me how the story
is going when I surface after living for hours in a world of my own making.
They have learned to accept my “writing uniform” consisting of a slightly
unflattering pink fleece jacket, t-shirt, and black yoga pants. And they smile
at my nerdy bookishness whenever I try to explain urban fantasy to them. In
short, they get me, so they are perfect and I am blessed.</span></span></div>

<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Synopsis</span></b><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Aubrey Price is in the final months of her undergraduate degree at the University of Toronto. Bright, witty and fiercely independent, Aubrey works part-time for the college Dean and has her sights set on graduating with distinction. When she meets Dean Grant’s son, Daniel, the TA in her senior Shakespearean studies course, a shared love of the Bard’s works and an instant mutual attraction draw Aubrey and Daniel together. Unfortunately, a strict anti-fraternizing policy, made more perilous by a black mark on Daniel’s record, keeps them apart.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Against this academic backdrop, Aubrey and Daniel navigate their way through a steamy courtship, their forbidden romance aided, abetted and sometimes thwarted by a colorful cast of friends, family and classmates.</span><br />

Weight of Words was like a breath of fresh air. My heart went pitter patter in
this one.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This story was so well-written,
heart-wrenching and gave me all the FEELS. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Aubrey
Price is in her last year of college where she finds herself falling for the TA
(teachers assistant) in her senior Shakespeare English class. Daniel Grant is
intelligent, hot, and off limits to students.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This may be a serious problem as Daniel’s past plays a huge
role in why he cannot pursue Aubrey. However, the heart wants whom the heart
wants and that is an even bigger problem for Daniel and Aubrey. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 15.0pt; margin-bottom: 13.0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Talk
about romance! This story brought me back to my high school days where I read a
lot of Shakespeare. Daniel and Aubrey connect through their love of literature
and it is a common thread throughout their relationship. I fell in love with
all the sonnets and the references to Shakespeare throughout this book. It
added such depth and character to the story. It gave it such an elegant and
romantic feeling throughout. I absolutely love Daniel and Aubrey. Their
characters are real and relatable. Your heart goes out to them as you watch
them fall for each other. While their relationship is forbidden, their hearts
believe differently. You truly feel how they yearn for each other, as they are
unable to be together. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 15.0pt; margin-bottom: 13.0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">This
is not your typical student-teacher ish romance. It is so much more than that.
It’s about love not knowing boundaries. The writing? Flawless! Although a bit
slower, than my usual reads, I thoroughly enjoyed this story. Daniel and
Aubrey’s story was beautiful and magical.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Love definitely conquers all. I cannot wait to see what is in store for
them in the future. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Georgina Guthrie has been a self-professed book hugger for as long as she can remember. An avid reader and compulsive diarist, she is thrilled to be taking the leap into the world of publishing. GG resides in Toronto, Canada, but she still considers herself a Brit through and through and can often be found roaming the aisles of her favourite British import shop.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">A graduate of the University of Toronto where she studied English literature, GG is happy to fill her hours reading and writing, but she’s just as likely to be found enjoying a good film with her husband, dancing around the kitchen with her daughter, or hanging out with friends and family, almost certainly with a glass of red wine in one hand a bag of cheese and onion crisps in the other.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">One look from Savannah Rae was all it took for Tate Connors to fall.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">From the first moment he laid eyes on her, his world was irrevocably shaken. He’s willing to accept that his life will never be the same again, but when she has to leave for New York the distance becomes more than either of them expected.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Tate is left alone with not only an empty bed but also a thousand thoughts running through his head. Insecurities soar as he wonders if he could ever really be the kind of man Savannah deserves.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">When the demons of his past continue to threaten the future he so desperately craves, Tate knows he has to make the ultimate choice. Risk destroying his relationship and his family with one life changing decision, or gamble on fate and hope the past stays exactly that…the past.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Rachel Brookes is from a coastal town on the east coast of Australia where beaches, kangaroos and surfers roam free. She writes angsty love stories with a pinch of craziness, a dash of drama, a cup of romance and a spoonful of sexiness… oh and the main ingredient hot guys.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Rachel sometimes forgets to eat, sometimes forgets to sleep and sometimes can’t remember the last time she cleaned her apartment but that’s because she is in a long term relationship with her laptop and is constantly writing.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">When she does step away from her laptop she can be found taking too many photos, making scrumptious cocktails, laughing at Adam Sandler movies and spending her time with her amazing family and friends.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">With her first novel, Just Breathe, was released in July 2013, her dream of releasing a book became reality. With another three books already taking up her mind, she cannot wait to start this crazy ride.</span><br />

<strong><span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: small;">Excerpt</span></strong></h5>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="color: black;">**Disclaimer: This content is unedited and subject to change**</span>
<span style="color: black;">Copyright © Jessica Ingro</span>
<span style="color: black;">“Fine. Bring me the damn suit,” I grumble begrudgingly.</span>
<span style="color: black;">“You’re the best! You know that?” Kara kisses me chastely. Her father is still there after all.</span>
<span style="color: black;">Bill laughs once Kara bolts up the stairs.</span>
<span style="color: black;">“Laugh now. Next thing you know she’ll make you be my elf!” I threaten good naturedly.</span>
<span style="color: black;">“I’d love to see that,” he says in between chuckles.</span>
<span style="color: black;">“Ah crap!” I pull my hands through my hair, seriously wanting to throw a child-sized temper tantrum at this turn of events.</span>
<span style="color: black;">“Think of it this way, son. It will be good practice for when you have kids. And you’re making those girls’ night.”</span>
<span style="color: black;">“Yeah… alright. I guess I can try to look on the bright side of things,” I concede. The last thing I need is for my soon to be father-in-law to think I’m a big baby.</span>
<span style="color: black;">Kara returns twenty minutes later with a giant red bag. I drag it into the bathroom and take my time changing. Part of me hopes that if I take too long the girls will fall asleep or something. Stranger things have happened.</span>
<span style="color: black;">“It’s Christmas Eve, Jacob. The girls won’t want to fall asleep regardless, so don’t think you can get out of this,” Kara calls through door.</span>
<span style="color: black;">How the hell does she do that? It’s worse than the eyes in the back of her head.</span>
<span style="color: black;">“I’ll be out in a minute,” I yell through the door.</span>
<span style="color: black;">After I velcro the giant pillow onto my belly, I turn to the side and stick my stomach out further, poking at my now enlarged gut. I roll my abdominal muscles making the pillow bounce and ripple. Chuckling at my nonsense, I step into the red, velvet pants. I pull the black suspenders over my shoulder and do a little jig watching as my stomach bounces around.</span>
<span style="color: black;">Apparently this suit sucks the seriousness out of you. <i>Maybe it’s a magic suit…</i></span>
<span style="color: black;">I stop my musings and proceed to put the jacket on and button it up.</span>
<span style="color: black;">I look damn good in red. Even with a giant stomach.</span>
<span style="color: black;">Next comes the wig and beard, followed by the hat. Now I have absolutely no reason to walk out of this bathroom. Damn.</span>
<span style="color: black;">Opening the door, Kara is the first thing I see. Her face lights up and she graces me with a wide smile. She lifts her arm, and then she does the unthinkable when she snaps a picture with her cell phone.</span>
<span style="color: black;">“Lump of coal for you!” I shout and make like I’m going to attack her. When I lunge for her, she screeches and runs across the room.</span>
<span style="color: black;">Once I catch up with her, she reaches out and rubs red shit on my cheeks. “Really?” I ask not wanting to deal with this shit.</span>
<span style="color: black;">“You are so going to get lucky later,” she mumbles so only I can hear her.</span>
<span style="color: black;">“Damn straight. You owe me one creative session, Sunshine.”</span>
<span style="color: black;">“There is this new position I heard about that I’ve been curious to try.”</span>
<span style="color: black;">“It’s a good thing this suit is big, otherwise my sister would think Santa was a giant perv. What do you think you’re doing telling me that now?” I gripe, knowing my nieces can’t sit on my lap while I’m turned on.</span>
<span style="color: black;">“Sorry. I forget,” she says like that explains it all.</span>
<span style="color: black;">“You’re lucky I love you.” I kiss her forehead and start towards the stairs. “Let’s get this over with.”</span></span></blockquote>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><strong>Author: </strong>Rebecca Berto</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><strong>Publication date:</strong> November 25th 2013</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><strong>Genre:</strong> Contemporary</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><strong>Age Group: </strong>New Adult</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span><br />
<strong><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Synopsis:</span></strong><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Sarah Langham’s life was the epitome of normal until her dad slept with another woman when she was sixteen. It ripped her family apart.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Twenty-two-year-old Sarah has it together, though.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Waiting at the train station to go home from her first day of her first proper job out of university, she spots a man.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">He is an enigma to her. She’s drawn to him, with his square jaw; buzz of hair; and his tall, solid frame, seen under the contours of his business suit. And he’s been looking at her, too. Fate pulls them together that night on a whirlwind date, exceeding anything Sarah’s experienced before. He’s even more into her than she’s into him. Finally, she wants to trust a guy for the first time since she was sixteen.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">But then they discover something.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Something that meant they were never two strangers at a train station.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">And it threatens to tear their future apart before it, really, ever begins.</span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
</div>
<strong><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">What inspired you to write Entwine?</span></strong><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I was in a bit of a rut and my friend suggested to free write to help. So I downloaded a program that blocked out my screen and had a serene and freeing vibe to it. And I wrote.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I wrote one scene and then during my second free writing exercise, I ended up continuing that same character and story. Fearing I’d get in a rut again if I turned it into a novel, I continued to write random scenes until about 10,000 words along.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Then I knew I had something special and I had to create a novel. The two main characters excited and ignited a passion in me I hadn’t felt for a while.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I have to thank my friend for the reason Entwine exists. It turned out beautifully, thanks to the way I approached it differently than I have to my writing in the past.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br />
<strong><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Tell us about your main character.</span></strong><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Sarah is an every-girl. She isn’t a virgin but she hasn’t slept with the whole town, she isn’t stuck up, or overly reserved, and she isn’t whiny.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Sarah is fresh out of college, starting her dream job but in her personal life, she’s stuck from moving forwards by hurt in her past. When she meets an amazing guy one night, she fears he’s too good since Sarah’s nothing special. It’s the simple, yet realistic quality about her I really connected to.<br /> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Sarah is understatedly unforgettable.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br />
<strong><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Who does your book appeal to?</span></strong><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Entwine is a unique one to classify.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">It evokes a dream-like style at times; in other scenes it’s emotionally devastating with the hurt Sarah feels; and sometimes it’s so damn hot your screen will be in danger of igniting into flames.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">If you love your sexy reads and your emotional stories, Entwine is a great balance between that.</span><br />

<div class="Firstpara" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">When Sarah first
came home her ears had a faint ring in them, and now, in the aching silence,
they buzzed at her fiercely. Her first thought was <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Ah! Relative quiet for once. I’ll just sneak in and get my mobile phone</i>.
Now she wished her dad had been doing an</span><a href="http://www.blogger.com/null" name="_GoBack"></a><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">ything else, even
playing that stupid rock ‘n’ roll music. She had a solution for that: plug in
her Favourites playlist and turn the volume up.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">
</span><br />
<div class="subsequentparas" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">She
heard the first moan, whispering through the walls. She was drawn toward the
sound in her parents’ bedroom; it was like the undeniable dread of watching
someone being bullied from afar. It was being unsure how to make it stop. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">
</span><br />
<div class="subsequentparas" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">But
Sarah’s mum was out, and there was definitely two people making <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">those </i>sounds in there. For the first few
moments, Sarah wondered if her mum had suddenly materialised here. Why else
would her dad be moaning in sync with that female voice, and the bed legs be
screeching in that way? <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">
</span><br />
<div class="subsequentparas" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">She
remembered arriving into the silence that had encased her, replacing the
throbbing sounds from the party she’d just been at, thinking it all seemed <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">too </i>quiet in here. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">
</span><br />
<div class="subsequentparas" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">She
was right.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">
</span><br />
<div class="subsequentparas" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Sarah
felt the blood drain from her face. A sense of nothingness washed over her as
she braced her palm to the wall outside her parents’ bedroom, narrowly
preventing her wobbly legs from taking her down. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">
</span><br />
<div class="subsequentparas" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">What
should she do?<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">
</span><br />
<div class="subsequentparas" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">She
willed her ears to block out what she heard, but she knew sticking her fingers
in the holes wouldn’t help a bit. And her dad didn’t deserve to be the reason
she harmed herself if she poked inside too hard. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">
</span><br />
<div class="subsequentparas" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Sarah
wished she could run, but instead her feet stayed rooted against the wall, and
she shivered at the choice she had to make. What would she do, tell her mum
that she could hear the bed creaking against the frame, that her dad’s friend
wasn’t trying to be quiet at all? <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">
</span><br />
<div class="subsequentparas" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">The
sounds triggered a memory. She’d caught a weird text message when sitting at
the kitchen bench, her playing with her dad’s phone, her mum still at work. Her
dad had snapped his mobile phone from her fingers and told her to go to her
room. Her shock back then debilitated her choice to tell her mum. Her voice
didn’t work when she tried to speak, and her throat was tight even when she
swallowed. Now, hearing what was happening behind the wall, she had no idea
where to even begin. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">
</span><br />
<div class="subsequentparas" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Sarah
clamped a hand over her mouth in case she sobbed loudly, forced her other hand
to push her from the lure of the wall where she had been frozen, and to walk
herself out the front door. </span></span><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Back to that party. Back through the shadows of darkness and odd orbs of light, along the sidewalk, back to the noise and the alcohol, and the people trying to forget their responsibilities.</span></div>

<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Regret is a formidable foe.<br /><br />Eden Kelley is the primary caregiver for her mother who’s in the advanced stages of Alzheimer’s disease, and she’s only twenty-four. Not what she planned to do when she left her husband for a new start with her four-year-old daughter in tow. She’d hoped for free babysitting, but instead she found a mystery. The discovery of an erroneous marriage document leads to more questions, and unfortunately Eden can’t ask her mother for answers because she doesn’t remember.<br /><br />Her mother’s antics drive her crazy, but Eden’s determined to make the best of it. That includes finding the exciting romantic adventure she’d dreamed about. But when trouble knocks, it’s her husband Cade who arrives to help. It’s awkward and tense. And Eden comes to one sure conclusion: leaving her handsome, caring husband was a huge mistake.<br /><br />Her parents had a second chance at love? Would she and Cade get one, too?</span></div>

<div class="Style3" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">She was a
despicable woman! Eden had tolerated her mildly before, but now she <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">despised</i> her That smug expression of
superiority, that flashy wool suit: you’d think she was a <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">high and mighty</i> lawyer instead of an ordinary secretary. Eden
filled her glass, emptying the bottle of cheap red wine and clumsily set it
back onto the coffee table.</span></div>
<div class="Style3" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">She’d snatched
Sophie away, en route to the airport, without even the slightest display of <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">remorse</i> or apology. Cade would be
meeting them in Prince George. Eden pouted. That <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">miserable hag</i> would probably be with him. </span></div>
<div class="Style3" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">“Oh, my sweet,
little girl,” Eden moaned aloud. “I can’t believe I have to share you with her!
This is going to be the most wretched Christmas of my entire life!” She lifted
her glass to her mouth, slightly off target, and a dribble of red ran down her
chin. She wiped it with the back of her hand. </span></div>
<div class="Style3" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">“It’s just you
and me, Mom,” she slurred, patting Lorraine on the arm. “Yup, just you and me.
Me, the sorriest sample of humanity on the face of the earth, and you… forgive
me, Mom, but I have to say it. You live on another planet entirely.” <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Hiccup.</i></span></div>
<div class="Style3" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Lorraine was
dressed in her nightclothes with the bra strapped on over top. She grinned
blissfully, her face dusted with the orange powder from the <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Cheezies</i> she ate as they watched <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">It’s a Wonderful Life</i>. Eden, on the other
hand, found nothing wonderful about it. Like a zombie, she sat on the couch
with her glass of wine, a half-empty box of Kleenex, and a pile of dirty
tissues. She’d shed no tears for Jimmy Stewart; at least things work out for
him in the end. No, the tears were solely for her.</span></div>
<div class="Style3" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">“Oh, Mom,” she
moaned, and rested her head on her mother’s spindly shoulder. “What are we
going to <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">do</i>? What’s to <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">become</i> of us?”</span></div>
<div class="Style3" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Her mother’s
shoulder was too thin and bony to provide comfort. What she needed was a man’s
shoulder: a firm, strong, muscular shoulder. Like Cade’s. She needed Cade’s
shoulder! Her breath shuddered as she swallowed a sob and blew her nose again. </span></div>
<div class="Style3" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Oh, what had she
done?</span></div>
<div class="Style3" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;">

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><strong>Author: </strong>Denise Grover Swank</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><strong>Publication Date</strong>: Nov 19th 2013</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span><br />
<strong><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Synopsis:</span></strong><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">The wall between our world and that of vengeful spirits has protected humanity for more than 400 years. It’s about to come crashing down.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Ellie Lancaster has lived her whole life by the site of the mysterious Lost Colony of Roanoke, the Virginia settlement that vanished without a trace around 1590. Only the descendants of the two men who banished the spirits of an enemy tribe from the material realm know what really happened to the colony. Ellie is one of those descendants—a Curse Keeper. Her father took pains to teach her what he knew of the curse and the responsibilities of its guardians. He taught her that if the two Curse Keepers ever meet, the curse will be lifted, the gate will open, and the raging Native American spirits will be unleashed to seek their revenge.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Despite her father’s seriousness, Ellie has always taken the legend for a harmless fairy tale. Until she meets the darkly handsome, but downright infuriating, Collin Dailey and realizes everything she was told is true. For when they meet, it’s like the air is sucked from the room. Collin’s presence is electrifying… and it’s not just attraction Ellie feels, but the inexorable pull toward her destiny. The prophecy is real, and now Ellie and Collin must battle supernatural forces and their loathing—and passion—for each other to set things right.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">The Curse Keepers are all that stand between the world and its destruction.</span><br />

<strong><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Read an excerpt from <em>The Curse Keepers</em>...</span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span></strong><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Collin gritted his teeth and turned to Marino, the veins on his neck bulging. “I’m waiting for her outside this door, and if I get the slightest inclination she doesn’t want to be here, I’m coming in to get her.”<br />Marino laughed and waved his hand to the door. “The time starts as soon as you leave.”<br /><br />Collin stood with his hand on the doorknob, searching my face.<br /><em>Go</em> I mouthed, my back still to Marino. <br />Collin stormed out and slammed the door shut behind him, and the force caused a faded picture with dogs playing poker to shake against the wall.<br /><br /> I spun around, my heart hammering a staccato of fear. “My two minutes starts now.”<br />“No need to worry, Ellie. I only want to talk. I’m curious.”<br /><br />Talking was good. I could do talking. “About what?”<br />“What is Collin Dailey’s interest in you?”<br /> “It’s a family thing.”<br /> “You’re related then? You’re not together?”<br /> “Not exactly.”<br />“Not exactly to which question?”<br /> “Both.”<br /><br /> He grinned and moved closer. “You’re telling me that you’re not fucking Dailey?”<br />I flinched. “That’s a rude way to put it.”<br /> “Ellie, Collin only fucks women. He never gets into a relationship with them, and he sure as hell never loves them. So why is he so protective of you?”<br /><br />None of what Marino said surprised me, but his bluntness caught me off guard.<br />“I told you. It’s a family thing. He feels obligated.”<br />Marino shook his head. “The only person Collin Dailey feels obligated to is Collin Dailey. If he’s not fucking you, and he’s keeping you with him, then you must have something he considers valuable.”<br /><br /> While that was true, I was sure Marino would never guess what Collin really wanted, and I wasn’t going to be the one to tell him.<br /><br /> “One minute,” Collin shouted through the door. <br />Marino turned his head to the side, narrowing his eyes. “Fascinating.” Excitement filled his eyes.<br />My breath hung in my throat. “What?”<br /> “The man outside that door is not behaving like the man I know. Why?”<br /> “I have no idea. He’s only helping me sell my candlesticks.”<br />He laughed. “You’re liar. A good one, but Collin gives you away. If he wants you so badly, that makes you incredibly desirable.” He reached his hand to my cheek and slid it down to my throat.<br />I took a step backward. “You think he loves me?”<br />He laughed again. “Hell no. I told you Collin doesn’t love women. He’s only capable of loving himself, but you have something that he’ll risk his own life for and that, my darling, is intriguing. I want to know what it is.”<br />“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”<br />Dropping his hand, he studied me again. “I think you do. This is about the Ricardo deal, isn’t it?” <br />My eyes widened in surprise. What was he talking about?<br /> Marino’s grin spread across his face. “I knew it.”<br />The door burst open and Collin filled the doorway. “Time’s up. Let’s go, Ellie.”</span><br />

<strong><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">About the Author:</span></strong><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Denise Grover Swank was born in Kansas City, Missouri and lived in the area until she was nineteen. Then she became a nomadic gypsy, living in five cities, four states and ten houses over the course of ten years before she moved back to her roots. She speaks English and smattering of Spanish and Chinese which she learned through an intensive Nick Jr. immersion period. Her hobbies include witty Facebook comments (in own her mind) and dancing in her kitchen with her children. (Quite badly if you believe her offspring.) Hidden talents include the gift of justification and the ability to drink massive amounts of caffeine and still fall asleep within two minutes. Her lack of the sense of smell allows her to perform many unspeakable tasks. She has six children and hasn’t lost her sanity. Or so she leads you to believe.</span><br />

<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">A sweet, mysterious teen romance with a refreshing fantasy twist. California teen Sadie James thinks her life couldn't get any better. She has great friends, an energetic mother she adores, and the beach practically in her own backyard. But her carefree life is turned upside down when she's rescued by a mysterious and strangely familiar boy who won't even tell her his name. Each time the boy appears, Sadie's unexplainable attraction to him deepens along with her need to unravel his secrets. The boy is there to protect her, but as wonderful and exciting as it might be to have an irresistible boy with crystal green eyes protecting her every move, every minute of the day...why does Sadie need one? As Sadie finds answers, she realizes her life isn't as perfect as she thought. Not only is she caught in a world of dangerous secret agents she never knew existed, but it turns out her true identity may be the greatest secret of all.</span></blockquote>

<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; line-height: 19px;">I moved near him and his hand guided me in front of the bench, but I turned to face him instead of sitting down. He immediately shifted back, pulling slightly away. I wasn’t sure if it was the bump on my head suddenly clouding my thoughts, or the romance of being swept away and rescued by a gorgeous, mysterious boy, or this little ache in my heart of forgotten memories and dreams, but something deep inside me drew me towards him.</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; line-height: 19px;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; line-height: 19px;">I wanted to reach out and hold him, but I held the feelings back, unsure if I should act on them. Instead, I stood there unmoving, still gazing up at him. He was tall compared to most high school boys I knew. I searched his face for any sign of reciprocation and moved closer. This time he didn’t move away.</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; line-height: 19px;">“Thank you again,” I said softly, looking up at him through my lashes.</span><span style="line-height: 19px;"><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">
</span></span><span style="line-height: 19px;"></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; line-height: 19px;">There was a long, heavy pause as I waited breathlessly for his response. His glowing eyes met mine, and their radiance hypnotized me. I could see nothing else.</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; line-height: 19px;"><br />
</span><span style="line-height: 19px;"></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; line-height: 19px;">Then I felt it again, the unexplainable connection between us. Time slowed around us like a force field pulling us together. I had no desire to resist it; I let the feelings draw me in, and I inched forward, wishing for his lips on mine. His hand lifted gently to my waist, sending a thrill through me in every direction. Never before had I felt the desire to kiss someone so fervently, the divine first kiss I had always dreamed of.</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; line-height: 19px;"><br />
</span><span style="line-height: 19px;"></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; line-height: 19px;">There was no trace of resistance left on his face. He leaned into me and my heart raced. Our faces grew slowly together as I looked from his dazzling eyes to his inviting lips.</span></div>

isn’t a rock star. He’s not the leader of a MC. He isn’t a billionaire. Lily’s
not the daughter of a mob boss, or a stripper, or a virgin with a BDSM

the middle of all the crap and chaos of growing up.<o:p></o:p></span></span></i></div>

and Lily have navigated his past, her desire to move on from her family’s
demands of her, his depression, and her loneliness. Now, on New Year’s Eve,
they have an entire year laid out ahead of them. First, though, Jack needs to
meet Lily’s family, to be welcomed into her life. It’s intimidating, but with a

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-indent: .25in;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">“All the fucking time,” he says. “I
know you’re scared. I know <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">I’m </i>scared.
But I seem to remember you telling me that I should remember what matters. I
made you a promise, princess. Yes, your house intimidates me. Your <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">life </i>intimidates me. Hell, loving you
intimidates me. But I’m in this. I’m here. Present. Entirely. I’m looking only
forward. And all I see is you.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-indent: .25in;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">“Take the damn book,” I tell him. “I
just wanted to show you that I have faith in us. It was a conscious decision to
give you something that was a very special gift to me, to tell you that I trust
you with it, because I trust you to be there. Long term.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-indent: .25in;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">He takes me in his arms and kisses me.
I decide I won’t stop him if he goes further, but he doesn’t. Our bodies
crackle with the energy between us, but as much as the sex thrills me, Jack
does so much more for my mind than his body could even do. I can’t believe how
alive I feel when he’s near me. Perhaps it’s selfish. Perhaps it’s desperate.
But I want him here in my life; I want him with me, because I love being this
aware. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-indent: .25in;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I speak against his cheek, while his
hands slowly explore my body. It’s sensual but not sexual. He’s studying me like
a work of art. “I don’t want to fall out of love with you. I thought Derek was
all I ever wanted. I don’t want to be in the same place with you a year from
now.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-indent: .25in;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">“You won’t be,” he tells me. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-indent: .25in;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">“How do you know?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-indent: .25in;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">He kisses along my face, brushing his
lips against my cheek, my forehead, my nose, but never reaching my mouth. “I
don’t know how. But I do.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-indent: .25in;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I love that he can put aside his doubts
to ease my own. I know Jack’s had so much trouble in his life, and the fact
that he can comfort me, when my problems are so petty and stupid in the scheme
of things, is one more thing I love so much. “I know I’m shallow. But I don’t
want to be, Jack.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-indent: .25in;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">“You’re not shallow. You’re not empty.
Anything you think of yourself – it’s crazy. If you want to talk about surreal,
it’s the fact that you think you’re less than something. Maybe you didn’t get
shit on the same way I did in high school, but clearly, people have
underestimated you. They missed out on you. And you have every right to be
hurt. But, Lily? No one will ever hurt you again.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-indent: .25in;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I smile. “Thanks. I’m sorry I’m being
so moody. It’s probably hormones or something. I think I’m just frustrated.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-indent: .25in;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">“Yeah?” He laughs. “Well… I mean… I can
help you relieve some of that.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-indent: .25in;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">He’s on top of me and I don’t care that
it wasn’t exactly what I meant. I don’t care that someone could walk in.
Someone probably <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">will </i>walk in, since
eventually they’ll come looking, but I don’t care at all. I want to belong to Jack,
and I don’t know any other way to do so.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

sweet to steamy. She moves around a lot and has trouble committing to
things. <i>Bitter Fruits </i>is her first full length novel. Her
other two novels have already been released. <i>Forget Me Not</i> and <i>Lily of the
Valley </i>are simultaneous perspectives in the New Adult contemporary romance
series, <i>Flowering</i>. Sarah also has
three novellas (including <i>Star of Bethlehem</i>,
part of the <i>Flowering </i>series) and
several short stories available. She is currently working on <i>Immortal Star </i>and <i>Daughter of Heaven </i>in this series, and <i>Orange Blossom</i>, another novel in <i>Flowering </i>. When Sarah isn’t writing, she tends to waste a lot
of time checking Facebook for pictures of cats, shooting virtual zombies, and
simply staring out the window.<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #222222;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>

Synopsis</span></h2>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Mia Murphy may be married to the man of her dreams. But the man <i>in </i>her dreams is the one that got away—her high school crush.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Mia’s stuck in a rut, just like every other stay-at-home mom, and the only thing saving her from her monotonous routine is her perfect husband, Declan. He’s gorgeous, he adores her, and the man stole her heart with his sexy singing voice. Mia feels like the luckiest girl in the world, until she discovers that Mr. Perfect is not Mr. Faithful. Mia is devastated. Everything she once believed about Declan and their marriage is now covered in a big cloud of doubt and regret. On impulse, she kicks the cheating bastard out, pushing them into a separation that could mean the end of the picture-perfect couple.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">But when Mia receives an invitation to her high school reunion, she finds herself abandoning the present for the oh-so-alluring pull of the past. Although her heart still belongs to her husband, inescapable thoughts of her crush, Noah, resurface. And ten years later, Noah isn’t afraid to make his move. When the build-up of fantasies and ‘what ifs' comes to a head, sparks fly and it’s Mia’s turn to question if her marriage is everything she wants out of life. Searching for answers, Mia dives head first into dating Noah, falling further away from her husband and closer to her old flame.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">But Declan’s not giving up so easily. Mia is his one and only and he’s not about to let another man win her heart.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">I think I'll get right to the point with this review and say that <em>Man of My Dreams</em> was fan-freakin'-tastic and I loved every single bit of this book! As much as this book deserves a mile long review, this one is probably going to be short and sweet. The synopsis sums up the story very nicely, but there are definitely some unexpected events that I won't get into because you'll have to experience it for yourself. I will say that, for those of you who are turned off by unfaithful characters and infidelity, don't let that deter you from reading this book. That issue often takes a back seat in this novel, and there are issues of miscommunication on both sides; lots of grey areas that will leave you feeling sympathetic to everyone involved.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">I've found that I absolutely love to read novels that take place AFTER the happily-ever-after. I love a good falling-in-love story as much as the next girl, but I always find myself wondering <em>what next?</em> and this is one novel that definitely gives you a gritty, authentic representation of the struggles that could occur the characters say "I do." I really need to start reading more books like this because I adore them. Something else I love while reading, and <em>Man of My Dreams</em> definitely had this, is a good and flawed character! Real life is messy. Real people make mistakes and are impulsive and misguided. Not everyone is perfect. Faith Andrews understands this and wrote these characters, flaws and all, beautifully.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">I was connected to the characters in this book from the very beginning, and the writing was so seamless that I read this one in one sitting. Something that was completely frustrating, yet totally fascinating to me was that this author could make me love <em>everyone</em>. With a book dealing with infidelity and troubled marriages, this definitely doesn't happen often!Although I was absolutely irritated with Mia at times and cursed her judgment, I rooted for her the entire way. As for Declan and Noah, well, there were times when I was on the fence about one or the other, but the right guy for Mia won out in the end and I was very pleased with the outcome. This book definitely takes you on a rollercoaster ride of emotions-- I laughed, I cried, I wanted to shake my fist at some of these characters-- and you will fall head-over-heels for all of them along the way. And, along with Mia, you'll see that the grass isn't always greener on the other side and sometimes things really aren't as they seem...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia;"><em>Man of My Dreams</em> is this author's debut novel-- DEBUT! And it was incredible! Faith Andrews is definitely on my authors-to-watch list and I cannot wait for her next book to be released. I have a feeling she's going to be huge! This one is a must read.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-language: EN-US;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Declan’s voice comes booming
over the sound system, breaking me of my silent wonderings. “I’m sure most of
you are wondering why the music’s stopped and what I’m doing up here.” He
fiddles with whatever is in his pocket, concentrating on me and me alone. <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><o:p></o:p></i></span></span></div>

everyone can get on with their night.” He looks down at his feet, rocking back
and forth on the heels of his shoes. <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Why
is he so nervous? He’s been up there before.<o:p></o:p></i></span></span></div>

stood up here and sang to that stunning girl over there.” He points to me as
the crowd draws out an <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">awwww</i> in
unison and miraculously, or deliberately, the spotlight is pointed on me. Thank
God it’s only for a second. I think I just died a little of embarrassment.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-language: EN-US;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Declan becomes the center of
attention again and continues, “That night I told her how much I wanted her.
But now that she’s fulfilled every want I’ve ever had, it’s time for me to tell
her just how much I need her.”<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

loudly I can barely make out what Declan is saying, but when I see him get down
on one knee, removing his hand from his pocket to produce something very shiny,
I don’t need to hear any words.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

me toward the stage. “Snap out of it, Mia. If you don’t go up there and say
yes, I will!”<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-language: EN-US;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I peer over my shoulder for
one more jolt of encouragement and my legs finally break free of the
imprisonment my brain imposed on them. I clasp my hands to my heart, taking
long strides towards the man who has just proposed to me in front of this room
of strangers and friends alike. This seems incredibly surreal. An out-of-body
experience. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-language: EN-US;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">When I get to the foot of
the stage, where Declan is still waiting on bended knee, I look into his
gorgeous blue eyes and see my future. Without even realizing it, the tears
start to dampen my face. I nod up and down, unable to say the word that is
supposed to seal our destiny. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

me in this epic moment of my existence. “Yes,” I manage to </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">squeak out before
being pulled up on stage by strong loving arms. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Love is patient.
It can happen when you least expect it,
where you least expect it,
with whom you least expect it.
</span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Love is kind.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">But love may not grow out of kindness.
It can happen with the person who hates you most
because love knows no bounds.And it keeps no record of wrongs.
Love doesn’t hold a grudge.
Love forgives.
Love forgets.
But when the healing of your heart
breaks the hearts of the ones you love ….
it may seem impossible to
Find Joy.

While vodka and exercise have provided some relief from the daily grind, it is reading … and now writing … that are her true escapes.</span></div>

Some are into more than just straight sex, which is why they call me. Bondage, power play, submission…nothing is off the table. I will do anything for the right price. <br /><br />The stories I could tell you about a certain high profile congresswoman, or that innocent blonde actress. Trust me, she’s not so innocent.<br /><br />Guys would kill for my job. I’m living the fucking dream. Meaningless sex, no relationship hang-ups and I’m rolling in the dough. Life is perfect, just the way it is.<br /><br />Until I meet her.<br /><br />She changes everything.<br /><br />She makes me want more than I’ve ever wanted for myself and she believes in me. But she also thinks I sell insurance. I can’t stop what I do, but I can’t give her up. <br /><br />Eventually, my two worlds are going to collide and when they do, shit will hit the fan.</span></span></span></div>

was provided an ARC in exchange for an honest review.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Where
do I begin with this book? The fact that this book is HOT is an
understatement.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Yes, male escort
definitely grabbed my attention. But there is so much more to this story!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Liam
Cooper. Where have you been all my life? You bring steam and a whole lot more!
Liam is a very popular male escort. After heart ache from years ago, he wants
nothing to do with love, relationships or commitment. Meaningless sex is
perfect for him. It allows him to live a life style that suits him perfectly.
Liam makes<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>a lot of money. It also
allows him to pay for the facility where his ill mom lives. That grabbed my
heart. All this macho man loving sex stuff, yet he still loves and cares about
his mom. Liam never really thinks about his current profession until Mia, his
former teenage crush comes back in his life.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

giving me my first hummer.</span></span></i></b></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 15.0pt; margin-bottom: 13.0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Tease
was real and raw. Nothing was held back. I don’t think I have ever read a book
like this! <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If you are looking for well-written
erotica, Missy Johnson is where you should definitely look. I really enjoyed
her style of writing. The chemistry between Liam and Mia was off the charts.
The sparks were there the moment they reconnected.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Liam falls for Mia hard. He questions his job as a male escort.
Can someone like him love again? What will Mia think when she finds out? As
everything unfolds, it gets worse before it gets better. Read to find out
because it’s definitely worth it. As events unfold, you don’t know what is
going to happen next.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 15.0pt; margin-bottom: 13.0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Overall,
this was a <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>sexy four star read.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I would have liked it to be
longer.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I want more Liam and Mia
and really hope we get to see what happens to them in the future. I look
forward to the rest of the books in this series. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Dylan “Dee” Cosgrove is one fourth of Australian band, The Devil’s Tattoo. Loveable, cocky as hell, but one thing is missing. He’s never been in love. He doesn’t want meaningless, he wants meaningful and all he keeps hearing is I’m sorry… Forever the good guy finishing last.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">A year after their first tour, The Devil’s Tattoo are making it big in LA recording their next album. For Dee, all he wants is to stand on stage and play. After all, music is his first love. He could care less about the money and the fakery that comes with the LA scene and the big executive types with dollar signs in their eyes. But in walks the woman who is about to obliterate him and she’s one of them. So, what’s a guy to do when one look is all it takes?</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Jessie Ware is an intern at Galaxy Records, New York. When she’s asked to go to LA to help her boss schmooze with the latest big thing to come out of Australia, The Devil’s Tattoo, it’s her chance to get her foot firmly wedged into the door. If she can pull this off, then there could be a permanent job in it. But she didn’t count on one thing. Dee Cosgrove and his cocky Australian attitude. He makes her question everything without even trying and it might just push her over the edge… if she doesn’t give her heart to him first.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">The more Dee gets to know Jessie, the harder he falls and he’d walk over fire and back to win her over. That’s if she doesn’t deliver him straight into the ranks of the scarred and broken first.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">—</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">The Fire Walker is a companion novel to The Devil’s Tattoo. It has a dose of drama, some colourful language, a HEA and some sex scenes.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">It’s recommended for readers 18 and up.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">A HOLIDAY SURPRISE</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Stubbornly small-town Jenny Lindstrom has misgivings when she promises to stand proxy in her best friend’s wedding—misgivings that are fulfilled when tall, handsome Sam Kelley walks into the courthouse an hour late. In order to keep her promise, an afternoon favor turns into a weekend of startling but undeniable attraction, threatening the well-ordered world that keeps her heart at arm’s length from any more pain.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Sam’s plan is to fly to Livingston, Montana, take vows for his favorite cousin, and return to Chicago as quickly as possible. But his plan is turned upside-down when he must spend a weekend with Jenny in Gardiner in order to keep his word. He doesn’t want to fall for the prim, proper schoolteacher whose small-town life seems to him like selling out, but the more time he spends with her, the harder it is to say good-bye.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">When city and country come together for Christmas, the unexpected gift is true love.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;"></span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia;"></span> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">First, I would like to say how much I <em>love</em> this cover! Maybe I'm just a sucker for blue (and Christmas!), but I think it fits the book perfectly-- festive and oh so cute! When I was first approached by the author to review <em>By Proxy</em>, I knew I had to give it a shot. First of all, the concept was something completely different-- and, honestly, centered around something I had never even heard of before: a double proxy wedding.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia;"></span> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">For those of you saying <em>"huh?" </em>like I did, here is the definition according to Wikipedia: "<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">A <b>proxy wedding</b> or (<b>proxy marriage</b>) is a </span><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wedding" title="Wedding"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">wedding</span></a><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"> in which the </span><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bride" title="Bride"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">bride</span></a><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"> or </span><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bridegroom" title="Bridegroom"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">groom</span></a></span><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"> (or both) is not physically present, usually being represented instead by another person. If both partners are absent a double proxy wedding occurs." </span><span style="font-family: Georgia;">This actually very interesting to me, and I can see how, in some instances, this practice can be extremely helpful-- with military couples (which is true for this novel), for example. But, despite that, it just screams impersonal to me. Oh well, to each their own! Obviously they don't do this by choice.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia;"></span> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">Now that I've sufficiently veered off course, I'll get back to what I thought about <em>By Proxy</em>! I will admit that this story was a bit difficult for me to get into in the beginning. I was having a very hard time connecting to the characters and had my fingers crossed tightly for something exciting to happen. After pushing through the first parts of the book, though, I had a much easier time and ended up really enjoying the story.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia;"></span> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">Jenny, a teacher, is exactly as the blurb depicts her: stubbornly small-town. But she's also very sweet, and has a heart of gold. But those things definitely don't mean that she isn't tough. Being the baby of the family with three older brothers, she definitely knows how to stand up for herself. When she meets Sam, who makes them late for their appointment and doesn't make a good first impression at all, she writes him off as an arrogant man who has no respect for her down-home lifestyle. And while Sam does seem to look down on life in a small down, it turns out that he truly appreciates it at heart. Originally, </span><span style="font-family: Georgia;">I found the two main characters to be pretty judgmental of each other, feeding into stereotypes. But once the story really got moving, I was hooked and found I really enjoyed their interactions with each other. There were laugh-out-loud moments for me, and this story turned out to be extremely heartwarming.</span></div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">In the end, I found this novel to be completely charming and so sweet. I became quite attached to the characters and found myself really invested in how their story would play out. I loved that the basis of this story was something new and different. And by pairing all of the sigh-worthy, romantic moments with Christmas and the holidays, Katy really gives us something magical. If you're a sucker for Christmas stories and books about finding love in the most unexpected of places, this one needs to go on your list!</span><br />

A lifelong devotee of all romance writing from Edwardian to present-day, it was just a matter of time before Katy tried her hand at writing a love story of her own. </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">As it turned out, one love story turned into a series of five Heart of Montana romances, following the love lives of the Yellowstone-based Lindstrom siblings. In addition to small-town contemporary romance, Katy is presently writing a paranormal romance that takes place in northern New England and the forests north of Quebec.</span></div>

I call New Jersey my home where I share my life with my husband, and our three amazing sons. Writing was my way of expressing my words that sometimes I couldn't say. My journals were filled with the rants of a teenager finding her way, and eventually they turned into poems, and short stories. Joining the Indie community of so many talented writers has been a wonderful experience. I am so thankful for all of the love and support I have received. Life can take you down many different roads, but I truly believe this is where I am suppose to be now. I want to inspire my boys to never give up on your dreams. I never did, and here I am. I am officially an Author. Write what you love. Love what you write. Believe in your story. You have many chapters to write on your journey... XOXO...Mary</span>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">As their rehearsals begin, Destiny realizes the unimaginable: Isaac has developed deep feelings for her despite their religious differences and the fact that he has a girlfriend.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Weaving around Destiny and Isaac's alternating viewpoints, Destiny is the first book in a series inspired by the characters of Les MisÈrables and explores heartbreak, self-discovery, intolerance, and love.

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 15pt; margin-bottom: 13pt; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I
was provided an ARC in exchange for an honest review.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 15pt; margin-bottom: 13pt; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">It
has been a long time where I found a YA that left me speechless. As I finished
Destiny, I was in complete awe. The story and the characters are not like
anything I’ve ever read. I didn’t just read this story. I lived it. Every
emotion, every word, I felt it.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 15pt; margin-bottom: 13pt; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Destiny
Clark is a young Mormon girl that really likes the headmaster’s son, Isaac
Robinson at her Baptist high school. Not only is the religion a problem, but
Isaac is also happily taken, by Aspen Adams.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Soon, Destiny finds herself casted in a school play where
she will be forced, ironically to sing about unrequited love. It is through
music that Destiny and Isaac connect. But as two young adults who deeply
believe in their own beliefs, how are they to act on this connection they feel
towards each other?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 15pt; margin-bottom: 13pt; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">There
is so much YA out there that deals with teenage angst and love. What I loved
the most about this story was the realness factor. Religion is such a big part
of our lives and it is rarely discussed in fiction. This book shows a side to young
adults, that we don’t see often. I truly connected to these characters on a
personal level as I have friends who are of different religions and have been
judged by their parents, much like Destiny and Isaac. Teenage love is hard, and
these two strong minded individuals had every obstacle in their way.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>However, they loved fiercely and
without shame.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 15pt; margin-bottom: 13pt; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Destiny
and Isaac receive a lot of backlash from others and within themselves. I
admired their characters as their beliefs played such a heavy role in getting
to know each other. As a Mormon and a Baptist, Destiny and Isaac had similar
and different beliefs. Isaac grew up hearing a lot of negativity about the
Mormons. However, he became more open to understanding Destiny’s religion and
her beliefs. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 15pt; margin-bottom: 13pt; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">As
with any love story, there is heartbreak and self-discovery.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>As two young people fall in love, they
question everything, but their beliefs. They question if this could actually
work. How can they be together when the world is against them? The book did not
end on a cliffhanger, but Destiny and Isaac’s story is far from over, and I am
highly anticipating the sequel!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 15pt; margin-bottom: 13pt; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">The
writing was flawless. I truly enjoyed reading this story. It was a bit slower
paced than what I usually read, however that is what made the story. You
connected with every single character. I understood the pain, the hurt, the
confusion among everyone. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Overall,
if you are looking for a YA that is outside of the norm in the most beautiful way
possible, you must read this book. I commend the author for exploring and
bringing to light a topic that should be discussed out in the open, more often.
To the young adults that have strong beliefs, this is truly your story. Love
knows no boundaries.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><b>Summary</b>:</span></div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">There’s no way Lydia--oldest and most responsible of the tight-knit Rodriguez clan--is going to let her nosy family find out about the uncharacteristic work screw-up that landed her a paid suspension. To keep busy and avoid panic, she enrolls in a life enrichment class. The first guest speaker is a handsome artist with a wicked smile and eyes that melt right through her.<br /><br />Even the “ice princess” can’t help but feel an immediate spark that lights her blood on fire.<br /><br />Isaac Ortiz is unquestionably the sexiest man Lydia has ever met. The talented son of a famous Spanish artist, he’s constantly moving from one new glamorous city to another, working if and when the muse visits him.<br /><br />He also has a stare that makes Lydia’s heart race and hands that look more than capable of making her scream with pleasure. She shouldn’t be attracted to this free-spirit who makes all his own rules--but she is.<br /><br />There’s just one hiccup....Isaac is nineteen.<br /><br />Lydia has lived her entire life firmly inside the box, and being with a younger man is definitely outside the safe confines she enjoys.<br /><br />So why can’t she stay away from him? And why is she seriously considering his proposition to take off to a place she’s never been...just because?<br /><br />When Lydia is invited back to work with a cleared name, she should be overjoyed.<br /><br />But the reality is, Lydia doesn’t know what anchors her life anymore...or if she wants to be anchored at all. Should she travel the world with Isaac? Or continue down the road that she’s worked long and hard to pave for herself? Choosing one means losing the other, and Lydia isn’t sure if she’s ready to drift with the current that’s pulling her by the heart.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Deo takes the board out of my hands and eyes it up and
down. “You need a flatter board. How long you been surfing?”</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">“Three weeks,” I tell him.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Deo whistles between his teeth. “And you’re looking to
crash those waves? Alright, man. Alright. I’m gonna hook you up, because you
look like good people. Come with me. You eat lunch yet?”</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">“Uh, no, I haven’t,” I say as I follow him. He has my board
under his arm and is talking a mile a minute over his should<a href="" name="_GoBack"></a>er.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">“Well, let’s eat, right? I think Whit put some chili in the
slow cooker. I hope you like shit hot, because that girl goes wild with the
jalapenos. And her cornbread? Dude, you’re gonna wanna steal her away once you
taste her cornbread.” He whips around after he says that, so fast I almost
crash into him. “That was a joke.” His voice is totally still and serious.
“I’ll have to hunt you down and beat the crap out of you if you ever actually
tried anything with her. Clear?” </span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">He grins, I guess at the look on my face. I’m not a small
guy, and I’ve been in my fair share of fights and come out looking a hell of a
lot better than the other guy, but this surfer has that maniacal gleam in his
eyes that only the unhinged and lovestruck share. My father calls it the <i>la
mirada del mante desesperado</i>--the gaze of a desperate lover. </span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">It’s a look you do <i>not--</i>under any
circumstances--fuck with.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I hold my hands up like a prisoner surrendering. “Crystal
clear. I would never dream of getting between you and your lovely wife,” I vow.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">He shakes a finger at me. “I like you. You worry me a
little, cause you’re such a handsome asshole, and you’re shredding water that
would make some ballsy dudes do a serious double take. But I can tell you’re a
good guy. You got a job? You need one?”</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">“No. I mean, yes. I do. Have a job. I work for the
university. I guest lecture and am part of their artist exchange hosting.” </span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">There are times when I pop out of the world my father has
me drowning in and realize there are many men who don’t give a damn about art.
Many men who do things with their hands that don’t wind up hanging on museum
walls, but that are used. Useful.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I tense, ready for judgement, but Deo seems interested in
what I do. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Liz Reinhardt was born and raised in the idyllic beauty of northwest NJ. A move to the subtropics of coastal Georgia with her daughter and husband left her with a newly realized taste for the beach and a bloated sunscreen budget. Right alongside these new loves is her old, steadfast affection and longing for bagels and the fast-talking foul mouths of her youth.<br /><br />She loves Raisinettes, even if they aren't really candy, the Oxford comma, movies that are hilarious or feature zombies, any and all books, but especially romance (the smarter and hotter, the better), the sound of her daughter's incessantly wise and entertaining chatter, and watching her husband work on cars in the driveway.<br /><br />She is the author of the Brenna Blixen series (Double Clutch, Junk Miles, Slow Twitch), the Youngblood series (Fall Guy, Perfectly Unmatched), and co-writes with the awesome Steph Campbell in the Lengths series (Lengths, Depths, Limits, Ties, Riptides).<br /><br />Blog: <a href="http://elizabethreinhardt.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">http://<wbr></wbr>elizabethreinhardt.blogspot.<wbr></wbr>com/</a><br />Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/lizreinhardtauthor" target="_blank">https://www.<wbr></wbr>facebook.com/<wbr></wbr>lizreinhardtauthor</a><br />Twitter: <a href="https://twitter.com/lizreinhardt" target="_blank">https://twitter.com/<wbr></wbr>lizreinhardt</a> </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">For Cadence Miller, the fast track to adulthood proves intimidating and frustrating. She’s a little girl lost—abandoned by her parents and uncertain of her future. She doesn’t think she “fits” anywhere. She’s eighteen. She wants to be older. And the result is both comical and heartbreaking.</span></div>
<div style="border-collapse: collapse;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="border-collapse: collapse;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Mark Connelly will do anything to provide Cadence a stable, loving home—to be her protector. But he’s just as broken and lost, and his heart won’t let go of his past so easily. He knows he must share his secret with Cadence. And he hopes his revelation won't tear them apart. He hopes it will draw them closer, and make their love better.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">(Flashback)</span></div>
<div style="background-color: transparent;">
</div>
<div style="background-color: transparent;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">His heart dropped when he watched her walk into the room. He ignored the snickers and whispers and followed her with his eyes as she walked to one of two remaining seats in his class. Both up front. She had no choice. She’d have to be close to him.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: transparent;">
</div>
<div style="background-color: transparent;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">When realization dawned that he was the guy from Highway 28, the fear on her face was unmistakable. He felt no such fear. He felt extreme disappointment. And hopelessness.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: transparent;">
</div>
<div style="background-color: transparent;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">And then, there was the matter of her orange jumpsuit. He didn’t know how to address it or if he even should address it. A large part of him said to leave it alone. She was clearly being bullied, and she thought she would try to turn the tables.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: transparent;">
</div>
<div style="background-color: transparent;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">But she looked ridiculous. She had to know it. He wasn’t sure if she’d actually won or just thought she did. He tried for a gentle, non-confrontational approach.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: transparent;">
</div>
<div style="background-color: transparent;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">“Cadence, you might wanna go change,” he said softly.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: transparent;">
</div>
<div style="background-color: transparent;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Her eyes went wide. He wasn’t sure why. And then it hit him. He said her name! Yes, he remembered her name. How could he ever forget that name? Cadence. Rhythmic. His song. His life. He decided that afternoon on the side of the road. She was his cadence. It was an alarming moment of clarity now muddled by the realization that she was his student. He thought God was playing another cruel joke on him.</span><br />

<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">S. Walden used to teach English before making the best decision of her life by becoming a full-time writer. She lives in Georgia with her very supportive husband who prefers physics textbooks over fiction and has a difficult time understanding why her characters must have personality flaws. She is wary of small children, so she has a Westie instead. Her dreams include raising chickens and owning and operating a beachside inn on the Gulf Coast (chickens included). When she's not writing, she's thinking about it.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Just a text.
Seventeen-year-old Rebecca Hales tries not to worry. Probably a wrong number.
Not really meant for her, and definitely not related to the crime she witnessed
six years ago. Right?<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Then two states
away, a bomb goes off in her best friend's locker. Soon Ryan is labeled a
terrorist and runs to the safest place he knows—Rebecca’s house in small-town
Wyoming. It doesn’t take long for the FBI to show up asking questions. Rebecca
lies, of course, and says she hasn’t seen him. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><i>Foreign, or rather unfamiliar, would be the word I would use
to describe how I felt.<br />
<br />
Faintly, I could hear the glimmer of voices surrounding me in this dark haze,
caressing my ears like skin against silk. I felt like I was in a cocoon of
sorts, protectively enveloped, quietly drifting in some far-off place. I wanted
to stay that way forever.<br />
<br />
But we all know that what you want never really seems to happen in the real
world.</i><br />
<br />
Something’s not right in Mia’s head.<br />
<br />
The first thing is that her name isn’t Mia. In fact, she has no clue what her
name is—who she is. All that she knows is that she’s not like the ones who
found her: Dante with his kind blue eyes, Amy with her child-like demeanor,
James with his questioning gaze.<br />
<br />
And Briggs.<br />
<br />
The one she cannot decipher no matter how hard she tries.<br />
<br />
As Mia tries to fit in with these people, a strange occurrence is amidst
outside. And as she finally remembers who she is …<br />
<br />
Well, let’s just say that things get a little more complicated.<br />
