Hold My Heart - Esther M. Soto

Hold My Heart by Esther M. Soto

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Wow this book did something most books rarely do... left me begging for more. I want the next book and I want it now!!! This was incredibly well written. What a story! I absolutely loved the different elements in this story as well as how unique and real each character was. My favorite part was how everything tied together in such an unexpected way... As if Esther sewed the storylines and pieces you may have found insignificant into such an intricate way that everything made sense. Just perfect... now where's my copy of book two???

Kyland - Mia Sheridan

Kyland by Mia Sheridan

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Another amazing Mia Sheridan but what else can you expect at this point?  Really great story!  Kyland is hard not to fall for.  I really loved the relationship with him and Tenleigh.

The town they live in is unfortunate and poor to say the least.  These two main characters are in competition for a scholarship to leave town.  Tenleigh's mother is very sick (mentally).  Kyland is Tenleigh's escape until she can leave town.  They have a strong bond and the story is touching. 

The thing that had me, was the description.  Reading the blurb on this story and I instantly wanted more.  I was not let down.  This is another amazing piece by an amazing author!

Archer's Voice - Mia Sheridan

Archer's Voice by Mia Sheridan

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Can I just say OMG I think this is my new favorite book.  My book hangover is huge and I just want to read it again and again.  Amazing story absolutely beautiful, I don't know what to read next.  Will review more thoroughly when my mind has time to process.

This book is brilliant.  I fell in love with Archer Hale from the very beginning as a small boy.  I felt a deep connection to Bree, she's easy to relate to.  The storyline is fast-paced and easy to follow.  I really loved being inside Mia Sheridan's world and have no idea how she will ever compete with this beautiful book.

Bright Side - Kim Holden

Bright Side by Kim Holden

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


This book may not be the most realistic but here's my opinion, I wish everyone was more like Kate.  Her personality was something we should all strive for.  I know I would love to be more like Kate.  I think the book was incredible, I was prepared to be sad but I wasn't prepared for how many surprising twists and turns there would be along the way.  Kate was an amazing character, all the other characters were great, I felt strongly for each one as Kim Holden's storytelling is in a league of it's own.  I cannot wait to read Gus's story next.

Amber Smoke - Kristin Cast

Amber Smoke by Kristin Cast

My rating: 3 of 5 stars


I was really excited to read this, I have not read Kristin Cast before but love NA as well as paranormal and mythology.  I have a thing for furies!  So the beginning of the book was excellent and held a lot of promise.  I would have been really interested in the relationship between the fury and the prisoner.  However, once Alek was of age and looking for Eva the story started to drag out.  The characters were underdeveloped.  I did not feel any sort of connection to them in the same way I felt towards the furies who were more developed.  I saw this book as too juvenile to be New Adult.  I would consider it more Young Adult.  I will say that the book is fairly short and I finished it really quickly.

I give it 2 1/2 stars and will round up because the beginning was really good and I enjoyed the first half the book.

Amour Amour - Krista Ritchie & Becca Ritchie

Amour Amour by Krista Ritchie

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


I really enjoyed the story of Thora and Nik!  I enjoyed her inner voice even though her mind was pretty chaotic with thoughts!  I thought that the secondary characters were really well developed for instance Timo and Greg were fantastic! Their banter was so easy to picture.  I thought all the characters were well developed to be honest.  There was enough *hot* moments for me as well, the chemistry between Nik and Thora was really enjoyable to read.  I loved the rawness of what she decided to do and the beauty in the training sessions.  I really enjoyed this story and read it in a little over a day!  It was mesmerizing, graceful, and fun.  Really fantastic story and I look forward to reading other books by Krista & Becca Ritchie!

Winter - Frankie Rose (Four Seasons)

Winter by Frankie Rose

My rating: 3 of 5 stars


This is a good book but there's a lot of unnecessary storyline, added plots, etc.  I thought the twists were good, I found myself going AHA several times.  Luke was a good character to fall for.  Just a lot going on in the story that wasn't needed.  The story wrapped up beautifully and most questions were answered in the end....
