12 Days of Reviews & Giveaways: Speak Easy by Melanie Harlow

One of my favorite books of this year was Speak Easy by Melanie Harlow. It takes place in Detroit during the height of prohibition, the 1920s. Seeing as I’m from Michigan, I like it when I read a book that is based in a place I’m familiar with. I know what it’s like in Michigan during the middle of a July heat wave. I also know where Woodward Avenue is. Though I’m sure the Woodward Ave of Today is a tad bit different looking now.. This book was like reading through an episode of Boardwalk Empire, DETROIT STYLE. I recently finished the sequel to the book, Speak Low, and I will be reviewing that book in the near future(so keep an eye out for it!). In the meantime, check out my review for Speak Easy located here and scroll down and enter to win a digital copy of Speak Easy(kindle OR ePub)! a Rafflecopter giveaway

Review & Giveaway: Bitter Sweet Love by Jennifer L. Armentrout

Bitter Sweet Love by Jennifer L. Armentrout Release Date: December 1st, 2013 Publisher: Harlequin Teen Goodreads: Add to your bookshelf Buy Now: Amazon | B&N Click here to read my review for Bitter Sweet Love and to enter to win a copy of Bitter Sweet Love! In a sizzling prequel novella to her new series THE DARK ELEMENTS, #1 New York Times bestselling author Jennifer L. Armentrout draws readers into the extraordinary, irresistible world of Wardens and demons. Dez wasn’t just Jasmine’s crush. A gargoyle Warden like Jas, he helped her come to terms with her destiny—fending off demons and maintaining balance between good and evil. He was her everything…right until the moment he disappeared without a trace. It didn’t help that Jas’s father had just announced that she and Dez would one day be mated. Hard not to take that personally. And now he’s back, three years older, ten times hotter, ready to pick up exactly where they left off. But Jas isn’t taking that risk again. Dez has seven days to meet all her conditions and earn back her trust. Seven days filled with terrifying danger and sweet temptation. Seven days to win her heart—or shatter it all over again… Erin’s Review To be honest, when this book series was first announced I was like, ‘Gargoyles?!! Why would anyone write about gargoyles?’ Then I remembered that this is Jennifer L. Armentrout that is writing these books! I shouldn’t question her for writing about gargoyles, I should just trust the knowledge that we all know: Jennifer […]

For Real by Chelsea M. Cameron Series: Rules of Love #1 Release Date: November 14th, 2013 Pre-Order: Amazon | B&N Goodreads: Add to your bookshelf Two people. One fake relationship. What could go wrong? When virgin Shannon Travers gets fed up with her friends demanding that she find a boyfriend, she enlists the help of tattooed, mohawk-rocking graphic design student Jett. He’ s more than happy to play along with their Fake Relationship, including the Ten Rules of Fake Dating that control-freak Shannon comes up with. Even if he likes to violate them. Repeatedly. But what happens when Fake Dating starts to feel… not fake anymore? Will Shannon be willing to let go and embrace the first thing in her life that’ s ever felt REAL? Excerpt: “Wake up, princess,” a male voice I only sort-of recognize says in my ear. My eyes are slow to open and I’ m staring right at a chest I don’ t remember falling asleep on. I lift my chin and meet a set of gorgeous brown-gold eyes. “Hey,” he says, his voice soft as I realize I’ m lying on top of him. At some point during the movie, he’ d shifted under me and brought both our sets of legs up on the couch and laid back, pulling me so we’ re front to front. My boobs are completely squished into his chest, which is the first thing that makes me try to shift off him. “Um, hey,” I say as I struggle to get off him, but there’ […]

First Excerpt from Fire & Flood by Victoria Scott + Giveaway!

FIRE & FLOOD by Victoria Scott Scholastic, February 2014 First Excerpt Reveal I drove across the US of A, left my family without an explanation, and now I’ m either too late or there was never anything here to begin with. F my life. Rearing back, I kick the door as hard as I can. Then I wrap both hands around the door handles and release a noise like a wild banshee as I pull back. The doors swing open. I’ m not sure whether to celebrate or freak out. I decide to do neither and slip inside. As I walk around the inside of the museum, listening to the sound of my footsteps echo off the walls, I imagine I am moments from death. It’ s sad, I think, that this is all it takes to break my sanity. Two curling flights of stairs bow out from the first-floor lobby, and red and white tiles cover the floors. There are gilded picture frames everywhere. So many that I think the placement of the frames — and not their contents — is the real art. Everything, absolutely everything, smells like wax. I mosey up to an abandoned reception desk and leaf through the glossy pamphlets littering the surface. I hold one of the pamphlets up to my nose. Yep, wax. I glance around, having no idea what to look for. Will there be a sign like at school registration? Students with last names A–K this way? On my left, I […]

Three years ago she frickin’ covered hers in glitter and laminated the thing, proudly telling me that she’s waiting for the perfect guy. So when I see her half naked, tangled together, rolling around on the floor with another stripper, I’m kind of shocked. Okay, that’s an understatement. I’m enthralled. I have to know what cracked her picture perfect world and landed her here, and I hope it’s something horrible-an event that broke her the way she broke me. Because, that’s who Cassie Hale is–the woman who stole my heart and crushed it in her hand.
