The Consequence of Loving Colton by Rachel Van Dyken
4.0
4 The Consequences of Loving Colton Stars
This is one of those books you don’t take seriously you just enjoy the ride. It is fun and silly and just an all-around good time.
I loved the friends to lovers aspect, I love that the brother was totally awesome. And her best friend is funny and nutty.
I can’t wait to see how those stories are going to go. I can tell you that it will be a heck of a ride.
Milo and Colton together are like peas and carrots they get each other’s humor and pranks, kinda loved that.
Overall a fantastic read, glad I picked it up.
Also, the narration is fanfreakintastic it was like a performance! I lovvvvveeeeedd it!!

Scorched by Jennifer L. Armentrout

4 Scorched Stars
After reading Frigid, I had to read Scorched. I am glad I did reread these books because I remember enjoying them.
I will say this time I had more empathy for Andrea then I did the first time I read this book.
She really is going through a lot but you wouldn’t really know it because she portrays this hard outers shell.
Sometimes I thought she was a little selfish, and sometimes I felt like Tanner was being a bully.
Overall, I liked the connection between Tanner and Andrea and I really grew to like their relationship near the end.
Andrea has a lot of growing up but I think so does Tanner and I believe he was learning this near the end and that was what I liked best.
I liked the narration for both books, it was perfect for the characters.

The best of the series!!! I am so so so glad Cher got her HEA, I mean really if any of them deserve it that would be Feb and Cher. Ok well maybe all of them deserved there HEA.. lol

Merry is one HOT as F*** Alpha male, love that he pushed Cher into trusting him and her trusting him to be what he needed.

Two Minutes by Dannika Dark

5 Two Minutes Stars
I wasn’t sure of this pairing but I knew Denny needed a mate that would challenge him and get his quarks and not want to make him change.
I loved this BOOK!!!
I loved that Denny is Denny throughout he doesn’t change but for his feelings.
I love that Maze is growing up to know what she wanted and she fights for it.
I love that she is a strong woman and is someone Denny can lean on if he needs to. Because his past demons have shaped him and his wolf and he needs someone strong, someone, who isn’t afraid of his wolf or his love.
I loved the connection Denny and Maizey still have but it’s a grown connection and it's pretty great.
I loved that we get all the whole pack and I have to say this book made me realize that April really is human … I think she needs to run into a Mage ;) just saying :p
And again Nicole is fanfreakingtastic!! This lady kills it. Denny wouldn’t be Denny without the way she brings him to life. Ok that’s not true Dannika wrote him like that but Nicole brings his personality to life. Loved it.

Kade's Dark Embrace by Kym Grosso
3.0
Again this book took me a long time to finish. I am not sure why.
Could be I didn't really like Kade.... I know shock right. I liked Tristan more, I can only assume this is why it has taken me months to finish.
I just found Kade to be domineering and its my way or no way kind of thing and I don't really like that.
Sydney is a strong kick ass character she can't be cowed to this vamp.
Freaking Vamps claim and don't tell the victim any of this I hate that. I thought it was a partnership. You belong to me. Bonded. Blindly give up her life to be with him. Frustration.
I did like that a vamp is best friends with a wolf. That was cool. And Witch's are in this book along with mageri's too very cool.
Even though I wasn't a fan of this book, its not going to stop me from getting book 2.

A Taste for a Mate by Carrie Ann Ryan
3.0
I wasn't sure of this book in the beginning. I like the first book alright. So I started this one but was iffy. Then I made a deal with my self finish all books I have already started before starting a new book. So I finished this one and wow I am very glad I did.
I thought it was going to be a short one but it was longer then I expected with a lot of meat to it.
I am a fan of Jasper and Willow. I was mad at the goof for not trusting in his mate. He should know what a strong capable gal she was from the beginner.
I knew she would pull through and be an awesome mate to him in the end. Also glad he pulled his head out of his rear to see it. Men/Wolves silly creatures!

Nine Minutes by Beth Flynn

5 Nine Minutes Stars
Wow, this was a powerful book. I couldn't stop listening to it.
It's powerful and heartbreaking and shocking. I think I felt all the emotions one can with a book.
I felt her fall in love not once but twice. Even though I knew it was wrong I was rooting for the bad guy what does that say about me!! Well, I will tell you it means Beth Flynn has magic.
Because for the first half of the book I was like “what NO” For all the right reasons then for the end I was like “Oh No” for all the wrong ones. If you read the book that will make more sense I think.
In the end, I felt lost like I needed to re-listen because “WOW” I know that's not a big word or even profound but it says how I felt about this book.
I recommend this book to everyone.

Outsider by Olivia Cunning

Omg, if you are a fan of Sinner, you’re going to WANT to read this book like ASAP.
Its feels like a second Trey, Ethan and Reagan book BECAUSE IT IS!!! Ok I will tamper down my excitement. I just loved there book so hard the first time.
If you read Exodus’s End’s first book we got some of Sinners but not a lot because well we are dealing with the opening band right. But this one is both its freaking fantastic.
Annnnd we get more Dare too, you know it.. I love me some Dare, I can’t wait till he gets his .. Sigh he is just so dreamy.
Ok back to the characters in this book. Trey and Ethan and Reagan go through some pretty hard ups and downs, and growing pains. Trey is openly Bi and proud of it but he has an amazing family the other two struggle with everything.
It’s a fantastic book of compromising and understanding and to love with your heart wide open. I am a HUGE fan of Olivia Cunnings work she kills it with every book I have read. So I highly recommend if you like hot guys and even hotter Rock Stars!

Play It Safe by Kristen Ashley
5.0
What can I say about this book that hasn’t already been said?
It’s emotional and passionate and incredible. The loyalty leaps off the page.
Playing is Safe is Ivey’s motto so she doesn’t get attached to anything or anyone in case her and her older brother Casey have to take off at a moment’s notice. She is a pool hustler; he is on the lookout for marks.
Only it’s Casey who gets a wild hare to stick around Mustang for a little bit.
Ivey see Gray and the connection the tether starts to pull these two together. Oh Ivey knows she needs to stay far far away from this handsome man but she can’t. He knows she is in town for nothing good but he can’t stay away any longer either.
Saying Ivey hasn’t had the best childhood is putting it mildly. Grey had the ideal childhood with adults who cared and loved him. Granted it wasn’t all peaches either.
Gray’s nickname for Ivey is swoon worthy “Dollface.” She gets all melty when he calls her this.
For me I loved how Gray stood up to her brother, up until then I didn’t think Casey was a bad guy but you kind of get so see who he really is.
Best fist date ever! One Ivey didn’t let anyone walk all over her; she stood up for herself. And the first kiss OMG the first KISS!!
Throughout the story things come to pass and they are separated through circumstance not by choice.
Ivey’s life gets thrown in to term oil but without that she never would have met Lash or Freddy. So even though I was heartbroken with the way the story was going. I love that she wasn’t alone.
“Say you love me, Ivey.”
“I love you, Gray.”
Best lines ever omg these are the best moments for me.
It really never gets easy for these two the heartbreak and the tears but oh you just have to keep on keeping on the story takes you on a wild and crazy ride. Oh the last few chapters and the epilogue omg its EPIC!!!

Kia is trying to move on with her life but her ex has royal messed with her life and is still doing it from the grave. She has to travel back to her home town, Sam comes with, and lordy be the scene with Sam and her girl posse had me laughing till I had tears!
There is some pretty emotion stuff going on in this book and the two scenes that have me tearing up just think about them is with Kia and her dad breaks my heart, also the one with Kia and Luci. Powerful stuff right there.
I think I love Kristen’s work so much because she brings them full circle, she also connects her other books. We get to see Lee and Joe and Tanner I mean how cool that is!
Half this book I am talking to my self and it goes a little something like this… Oh Sam how you can want her to open herself up like that when you won’t do the same. I get you have your own issues but look at her and see what your silence is doing. NOT fair Sam NOT fair. lol yes I talk to my self even when listening to an audiobook.
Ok I totally FREAKING LOVE Hap!! Hap is Sam’s other bestie.
Here are my 2 favorite quotes of the book and that is will be all for this review
“Heaven is you to baby.” OMG right!!!
Sam’s mom to Kia
“We share more than Sammy honey. I know all about walking right through hell and suddenly finding yourself on the other side. Glad it gets to be me that greet you there but more I am glad I can say I raised a man who would take your hand and lead the way.”
You need this book in your life... I swear it. <3
