Synopsis

What happens when one split second changes your life … forever? Blackmailed into silence over her boss conning a sweet old lady, Phoebe Lancaster “borrows” a priceless coin with the intention of getting it valued by a genuine expert. On the run and fearing her boss will catch her, she jumps into Cole Trask’s car.

Former cop turned private eye Cole is intrigued when Phoebe crashes into his life, and offers to help her in any way he can.Driving across Wyoming in an effort to get the coin valued by her former mentor, Phoebe discovers she’s falling in love with Cole. Burnt by her ex-boyfriend, she finds it hard at first to trust Cole with the coin, and her feelings for him.But what is the real reason Cole is helping her? Even if his motives are genuine, could Cole ever really love a curvy girl like her?

Excerpt

“Phoebe draped her wet lingerie over the furthest towel rail, hoping Cole wouldn’t notice. She definitely didn’t want him to see what size she wore.Walking out of the bathroom with her purse, she pasted a smile on her face. “Finished.”“Thanks.” Cole rose from the wooden chair and grabbed his duffel bag, pausing as she walked further into the room. His eyes narrowed in on her chest for a second, before he seemed to recover himself and headed into the bathroom. Only when she looked down at her chest did she remember she wasn’t wearing a bra.Phoebe bit back a smile. Maybe Cole wasn’t so impervious to her after all. Feeling encouraged, she hopped into the bed, wishing she’d had the foresight to borrow a bra from Maddie as well. But at the time, she thought they’d arrive in Jackson late tonight, get everything straightened out tomorrow, and get back to Cheyenne tomorrow night. Now, that timeline just seemed a hopeful dream.”

Endangered Hearts

Synopsis

Emilia Ward is being watched.

And it isn’t just by her mother’s creep of a boyfriend or one of her many employers. Instead, she is certain it something else—someone else. However, in a life with college classes and alcoholic mother to look after, Emilia doesn’t have time to explore her suspicions. She would much rather think about her new job at Iram Manor, and more importantly—its mysterious and alluring owner.

After a lifetime of isolation and trapped in a disfigured body Kasper Zafar thought he knew pain. Confining himself to his work as an architect and the love of his music, he never expects the beautiful Emilia Ward to enter his life. Young and naive, his new housekeeper does not flinch at the sight of him, and is even so bold as to call him her friend.

Determined to teach her in all worldly things, the opposites grow closer and the role of student and teacher interchange. Yet Emilia’s life outside the manor is not a happy one, and when Kasper’s attempt to watch over her fails, both will discover than love may be the most painful thing of all.

What I Think

I really like this book it was a refreshing change from what i have been reading of late. I was lucky to have the chance to get to read this ARC for a honest review. i think i would of given this book a higher rating if i hadnt just read so many of the same genre, im not saying it is the same as the rest as im not but after reading the same genre for a while they all run in to each other.

I would love to read more of Amanda's work loved it and thank you for writing a awesome book that i know alot of people would love to read.

The Conspiracy Kid

Synopsis

A sonnet is penned and, lo, the Conspiracy Kid Fan Club is born. Beware. To read this sonnet is to join the Club. Membership is automatic and irreversible.

This is the story of the earliest unwitting Conspiracy Kid Fan Club members: Edwin Mars (poet), Joe Claude (billionaire), Walter Cornelius (werewolf), Muriel Cohen (chef),

to name but a few.

Or, as Edwin Mars, being a poet, puts it: 

This is the story of Joe Claude and me,

And of my son and the sisters he loved,

And of their father, how he came to be 

In a graveyard - naked and uni-gloved; 

Hamburgers, hurricanes, murder and string, 

Werewolves and waiters and barmen and cooks, 

From Maine to Biloxi, Mayfair to Pring, 

Furniture, ketamine, golfing and books; 

Marriages made and broken and mended 

Under the shadow of loved ones who died. 

See how the grieving billionaire ended 

Up in that prison where laughter’s proscribed. 

Will he be rescued then? Read and find out 

What The Conspiracy Kid’s all about. 

What I Think

Well this isnt a Genre i normally read but saying that i really liked the story i was hooked. if i wasnt unwell and i got to just sit and read it in a couple of sittings instead of over couple of weeks i think i would of given it my highest rating. 

I really liked the characters and the storyline, i would love to read more from E.P. Rose he is an amazing author and knows how to use the words to get you hooked on the story. 

I am totally recommending this book to read even if it isnt the normal genre you read give it a chance it might surprise you as it did with me.

Four

Synopsis

Two years before Beatrice Prior made her choice, the sixteen-year-old son of Abnegation’s faction leader did the same. Tobias’s transfer to Dauntless is a chance to begin again. Here, he will not be called the name his parents gave him. Here, he will not let fear turn him into a cowering child.


Newly christened “Four,” he discovers during initiation that he will succeed in Dauntless. Initiation is only the beginning, though; Four must claim his place in the Dauntless hierarchy. His decisions will affect future initiates as well as uncover secrets that could threaten his own future—and the future of the entire faction system.
Two years later, Four is poised to take action, but the course is still unclear. The first new initiate who jumps into the net might change all that. With her, the way to righting their world might become clear. With her, it might become possible to be Tobias once again.
From #1 New York Times bestselling author Veronica Roth comes a companion volume to the worldwide bestselling divergent series, told from the per-spective of the immensely popular character Tobias. The four pieces included here—The Transfer, The Initiate, The Son, and The Traitor—plus three additional exclusive scenes, give readers an electrifying glimpse into the history and heart of Tobias, and set the stage for the epic saga of the Divergent trilogy.

What I Think

I can not get enough of these series the story between Four and Tris has been amazingly written to the piont you cant put the books down until you have read them, this book is made up by 4 novellas well the one i have is.

The collection tells you Four's side of things that you dont see in the first book like how he choose the faction that he is in, how he got where he did in Dauntless. i dont want to give to much away specially if you have not read any of the other books yet.

 this series is on my must reads for 2014 for sure and i am giving it a 5 reader rating because it is amazing story.

What I Think

Wow is one word to say about this story, amazing,funny, family,friends,soul-mates could be some more. i fell in love with the book as soon as i started reading it.

The book follows Ashley "Ash" MacLeod finding out she died after getting zapped by her blow dryer, meeting the grim reaper wasn't what Ash was thinking when she answered the door thinking that her blind date was early, when she opened the door to find a sexy man in jeans wanting to take er somewhere but little did she know she would have to wait to find her soulmate until after she died, Aedan "Grim" O'Conner was old fashion in more then one way, he showed her how the levels worked in Purgatory. 

i dont want to say to much about it or give anything away but once you start reading in you will not want to put in down. this is the first book of the series so once you are done reading this there will be more to come and you will be wanting more i promise. I am a big fan of Tara West work and have read all her work and they are all equally as good as this one.  

Im giving this book a 5 reader rating as i just couldnt get enough of it.

Excerpt

I can’t get her to look at me, I think she’s ashamed that she has no experience to go with. When I’m finally begging, she looks up and I can’t help it. She looks so lost, so sad. I know that she just needs the courage, but how will she ever find it if she doesn’t know what the reward is like? So I lean over, I place my hand on her cheek, and my lips on hers.

 She doesn’t freak out, so I use my tongue to entice her. I run it along her lower lip. I feel her breathing pick up and I’m nervous she’ll push me away, but when she doesn’t I try to coax her lips apart so I can really kiss her. When she opens them, her tongue meets mine and I have to keep repeating to myself, “Slow, slow, slow,” or my body might take over and try to push her past her limits. She’s not ready for more than this.

I don’t let myself linger too long. I would love to kiss her all night, but she needs baby steps. I need to give her that or this won’t work. “I’m sorry. I couldn’t help myself, but I should’ve made sure it was okay first.” I say it knowing that she needed the surprise of it or it would’ve never happened.

Her response takes me by surprise, “Don’t. Be. Sorry.” She is breathing hard and can’t form a sentence. I love it. That means she loved it.

 When she brings her hand up to touch her lips, I know I can make this better for her. I stop her hand with mine and leaving the other on her cheek, I lean back in for a deeper kiss. She responds immediately. I make this one longer, but not much. This time when I pull back, we are both panting for air.

“Wow.” A simple statement from her confirming that she liked it.

More info: Goodreads

Synopsis

He’s twenty-four. She’s eighteen.

His life is exactly the way he’s always wanted it to be...stable. 

She’s quite possibly the very definition of unstable.

Noah saved her.

Georgina never wanted to be saved. 

Growing up, Noah Clark was passed from one relative to the next until he finally ended up living with his abusive, alcoholic uncle in Kill Devil Hills, North Carolina. Thanks in part to the unwavering love and support of his best friend, Ellie Turner, Noah survived those years, escaped his uncle, and grew into the man he is today. Now he runs his own business and lives a pretty normal, no-nonsense life—one where he maintains a high level of control. 

Georgina is Ellie’s younger sister. Four months ago, Noah saved Georgie’s life, but he thought that was where his involvement with his friend’s sister would end. Now Georgie has returned home from the recovery facility her parents sent her away to and Noah, still haunted by the night that connects them, can’t stop himself from continuously trying to protect this girl he barely knows. But is he willing to give up all of the control he’s worked so hard to build in his life and risk everything for her? Even more importantly, would she do the same for him?
