Naked Edge - Charli Webb

Naked EdgeNaked Edge by Charli Webb
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

*Receive a copy from the author for an honest review*

This was a very unique story about a reunited love. I love how the author didn't make us wait in angst the whole book to see if they were going to get together. The story unfolded beautifully. There were some terminology issues on my part because I'm not familiar with climbing, but the glossary in the back helped.
Skylar and Rocky were best friends and just became an item when suddenly Sky's family had to move. With no further contact with Rocky per her mothers orders, he didn't know what to think. Then he had a ton of drama and heartache of his own to deal with because of his scum step father.
Anyway 4 years down the road, Sky finally comes back. Their story unfolds, but Rocky's step sister Anna doesn't want Rocky to have anything to do with Sky. The story got real intense once we found out the great lengths Anna will go to try to keep them apart.
Pick this up today and push it up on your TBR!

Avoiding Decisions (Avoiding, 1.5) - K.A. Linde

Avoiding Decisions (Avoiding, #1.5)Avoiding Decisions by K.A. Linde
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Getting Jacks and Ramsey's pov was enlightening. I knew I was on team jack for a reason! Ramsey is def too smooth and now I know why. He was attracted to Lexi because she looked like his ex.
At least Jack waited to do anything with Lexi until him and Danielle broke up.

Hold us Close (Keep Me Still, #1.5) - Caisey Quinn

Hold Us Close (Keep Me Still, #1.5)Hold Us Close by Caisey Quinn
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Landen and Layla are thrown some def tough obstacles and we get some answers and some resolve. I don't want to give the story away, but if I'm going to review I have to so beware!

Layla's aunt was able to put Layla on the waiting list to get her brain surgery, but Layla is unable to get the surgery because she is pregnant. Yay! How fun! Well not according to Landen! I totally did not see that reaction coming from him!! I figured since he had a crappy home life he'd like a chance at doing things right. Well...he flew off the handle. He doesn't want to be a dad...he doesn't want a family..and Layla is heartbroken...and honestly so was I! Landen's anger issues just kept escalating. Finally, he checked himself into a facility to help his anger. Unfortunately, he's not cured, but is managing it. Once he went to the facility, things progressed and he was getting excited about being a dad. He also was able to make up with the Colonel.

Remy - Katy Evans

Remy (Real, #3)Remy by Katy Evans
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

3.5-3.75 stars
I usually love books in the H's pov but this one didn't do it for me. I think because I just re read Real. I absolutely LOVED Real! I thought there would be more getting know Remy away from Brooke, but I don't know...will still read the next one.

Four Seconds to Lose (Ten Tiny Breaths, #3) - K.A. Tucker

Four Seconds to Lose (Ten Tiny Breaths, #3)Four Seconds to Lose by K.A. Tucker
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Best mother loving book I've read in a long time!!

What to say about Cain and Charlie?? Man!! I absolutely LOVED Cain!!! He is my new book boyfriend at the moment! KA Tucker is an excellent story teller and I'm loving this series!! Cain is a stressed strip club owner who is like no other. Most club owners are scum bags and run drugs through their clubs, but not Cain. He keeps his girls clean and helps them get their lives together. Cain has a dark past and is trying to constantly make up for his parents mistakes and how he thinks he let his sister down.
Charlie was also dealt a shitty hand. Her mother married a drug lord and died during child birth only to be raised by her step father. At a young age he started making her do drug drops and she knew she shouldn't have to do this, but felt an obligation to her step dad, plus was afraid for her life. She moved to Florida with a new identity courtesy of the 'loving' father. She was only supposed to drop drugs, but she ended up getting a job at Penny's strip club because she wanted to save money to get out from her stepdads thumb. Insert Cain and his need to save his girls, but Charlie is a mystery he can't solve. She's not opening up to him because she's afraid of what her step dad will do.
Cain and Charlie's story is a unique one and I can't wait for Ben and Nates story!!

The Edge of Always (The Edge of Never, #2) - J.A. Redmerski

The Edge of Always (The Edge of Never, #2)The Edge of Always by J.A. Redmerski
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

So I didn't need to put this down at 73% bc the book ended at 85%. Weird. Anyway...as you can tell from below and my rating and love for the first book I wanted to LOVE this story. So so bad... I just couldn't get into it :( the story seemed forced. Like she was originally done with the book and then got so much hype from the readers that we wanted more so she made it happen, but the book seemed forced to me. There was no impending event building up. There was an event and then it was over and again and again other than that there was nothing for me. I will always love Cam and Andrews story, but this one didn't do it for me!


NEED THIS NOW!! This is like torture!! I read the first so long ago and canNOT wait to read it again - I just want book number 2 now now now!!!!

Ignite (Explosive #1) - Tessa Teevan

Ignite (Explosive, #1)Ignite by Tessa Teevan
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

4.25 stars! Review to come!!
This story is about a second chance at love. Alexa Sullivan and Jace McCallister were best friends in high school. They were always attracted to each other but no one ever led on to it, then on Jace's high school graduation he told her. Then dropped the bomb he was leaving for boot camp. Ouch! (view spoiler) Jace was unlike any hero I've read. He was always sensitive and conscious of Alexa's feelings. He wanted her happy. Well, a few life changes and misunderstandings and 10 years later they reunite. Alexa has just lost her husband and is grief stricken when her meddling sister makes her go to their 10 year reunion.
Jace and Alexa's journey was hard and beautiful and emotional. Having a husband in the military (thankful he doesn't deploy much) but I put myself in her shoes. I could feel her pain.
Anyway--a must read this year! Great debut novel!!

Only for You (Forever and Always, #1) - E.L. Todd

Only For You (Forever and Always, #1)Only For You by E.L. Todd
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I was given this ARC by the author for an honest review.

To say I devoured this would be an understatement! I didn't want to sleep last night so I could finish it! Review to come!

I devoured this book. I didn't want to put it down. It was a story about falling in love with your best friend. Something I haven't read much about and I loved all the twists and turns.
Scarlet was a strong heroine and I loved her. I immediately connected with her. She had a few weak moments, but who doesn't.
Now Sean, we had a love/hate relationship. I instantly loved him and how sensitive he was. I was just waiting and waiting for him to realize how in love he actually was with Scarlet, but he kept talking about his cheating ex, Penelope. Then, I started to dislike him because of his choices, but again he's a man and didn't realize the full situation at hand. Of course, he redeems himself to the nth degree!
I definitely would recommend this book! This author is one to watch!!

This book ends in a HEA, but definitely know there is more to the story. What happened with her parents? What ended up happening to her old sleezy boss? Why became of her best friend Janice? Can't wait to read the next installment!!

Three Broken Promises (Drew + Fable, #3) - Monica Murphy


Three Broken Promises (Drew + Fable, #3)Three Broken Promises by Monica Murphy
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

ARC provided by NetGalley for an honest review.
4 stars
I was super excited for this to come out. I wanted to know the history between Colin and Jen. It was set up so vaguely in the prior books. For the most part I enjoyed their story, but it seemed really redundant and a lot of hot sex scenes (which is great don't get me wrong, but the book was based around it IMO). I thought we'd have Colin and Jen conversing more about their history together when Danny was alive, but we didn't get that. There was a lot internal monologue that was repeated too much and that's why I took off 1 star. Over all, a great story and will read the next book!!
