Holy--snap I can't seem to even begin to put my emotions in the right places at the moment. beautiful Oblivion is the first book in the Maddox brothers books which are spin offs from a beautiful Disaster

Trenton Maddox were do I even begin he is the whole package funny, sexy, hot, charming did I say hot? He loud and obnoxious but in the best way. Where's cami is is very independent doesn't hold back and doesn't take crap from any one. She has a very feisty attitude (I just love her). Cami has a boyfriend who lives in another state that she doesn't see much at all so why not become good friends with Trent? They did go to school together no harm right? Wrong he's a Maddox brother no female in there right mind can be JUST friends so with a Maddox. But that is all they are (at first) friends they do everything together spend every spare min together. Cami even gets a secound job at the tattoo parlor where Trent works. Long story short a good friend ship turns into a GREAT love that they didn't exspect well at least not Cami, Trent on the other hand has loved cami for some time

Well like I said Trent has loved Cami for a long time and Cami has strong feelings for Trent the problem she has a secret a BIG take you by storm, blow you away and be like holy s*** did that really just happen secret. Trenton is persistent and says it doesn't matter hell love her no matter what the secret is so they succumb to there feelings and decide to be together and make it work. Problem is all secrets come out and this one can not only destroy them but there family's also...in the end is she worth it? Can Trent forgive Cami? Will there love and family's survive this? You want to know the answers......READ THE BOOK


This book has ANST, drama, love and of course a Maddox brother I think enough is said with that alone right there. I love Travis but he's definitely has some major competition with his brother Trent. I am torn like no other I want no NEED them both :) this book was fantastically written which of course I didn't expect anything less from Jamie McGuire. She knows how to het your attention from the very first page until the very last sentence and oh boy do I MEAN the VERY LAST SENTENCE. I give this book 5++++++++ stars it's got book hangover all over it. You MUST read. By far the best book I have read this year.

Fiercely independent Camille "Cami" Camlin gladly moved on from her childhood before it was over. She has held down a job since before she could drive, and moved into her own apartment after her freshman year of college. Now tending bar at The Red Door, Cami doesn't have time for much else besides work and classes, until a trip to see her boyfriend is cancelled, leaving her with a first weekend off in almost a year.

Trenton Maddox was the king of Eastern State University, dating co-eds before he even graduated high school. His friends wanted to be him, and women wanted to tame him, but after a tragic accident turned his world upside down, Trenton leaves campus to come to grips with the crushing guilt.

Eighteen months later, Trenton is living at home with his widower father, and works full-time at a local tattoo parlor to help with the bills. Just when he thinks his life is returning to normal, he notices Cami sitting alone at a table at The Red.

As the baby sister of four rowdy brothers, Cami believes she'll have no problem keeping her new friendship with Trenton Maddox strictly platonic. But when a Maddox boy falls in love, he loves forever - even if she is the only reason their already broken family could fall apart.

Review for All Pepped Up by Ali Dean

The first word that comes to mind after reading All Pepped Up is Fantastic!! I so love this series. All Pepped Up is the second book in the series the first one being Pepped up.

Pepper has a love for running and also a love for Jace. She gets a little lost durning her journey in this book. She's not sure what's worth it anymore. She doesn't have a feel for the competition of running or the feeling of being free the rush the adrenalin that once came with it it just isn't there anymore. In order for her to find her love for running again she needs to find her self as a person and not just who she is as Jace's girlfriend.

Jace is the popular guy, the football star the player (until pep that is) but his heart only has ever had room for one girl and that's Pepper Jones his child hood best friend. He's sweat and soo sexy. Some might not like is possessiveness when it comes to Pep but I loved it. We get a feel to how much Jace truly loves her.

We get to watch as they grow as a couple and individuals. We also learn more about there friend Wes. There's a secret that Jace and Wes are hiding once Pepper finds out can she forgive them? Or forever feel left out?

There are all kinds of drama and twits and turns for Pepper and Jace not only as a couple but as individuals. There are people determined to split them up no matter what the cost is. The question is can they over come these obstacles that are thrown there way? Is there love strong enough? Or will everyone get what they want and that's to see Pep and Jace to break up. I give this boom 5++ stars it's a must read.

* I was given an ACR for an honest review*

Review for Entice by Rachel Van Dyken

FAN-freaking-tastic the best morfia series I have ever ready by far. Rachel van dyken has done us proud once again but I wouldn't expect anything less. Entice is the third book to the series.

It's Chase and Mil's story. Chase the cousin of one of the most power full mafias In America Nixon Abandonato. Also known as Nixons right hand man and in love with his cousins girlfriend Tracey Alfero. He is lost and heart is shattered in a million pieces which is why when Mil the new boss of the De lango family also the lowest mafia in America ask him for help and marry her he says yes.
Mil De Lange has secrets from her past and needs protection and who best to protect her then none other Chase winter the guy who took her innocence at fourteen and also secretly love of her life.

Mil and chase have decided on Vegas for there honeymoon. Of course once Chase realizes Mil has plans once they get there he calls for back up. Aka his family none other then Nixon, trace, Mo, Tex, Frank boss of the Alfero family and scarier then hell Luca. No one realizes just how bad Mil needed protection till people start coming to kill her right out of the gate. When they find out what or who there up against will this become war? Will they win? Or will this be the end of them of them all? Has Chase lost Tracey for ever? These are questions I won't answer you must and I say MUST read and find out for your self.


I LOVED this book. It's a must read. Of course loved that it was in mil, Nixon, Chase and Tex's POV (point of view). Entice has drama like no other, secrets, lies, love, hate, did I mention DRAMA with a capital D and of course blood. I give this book 5++++++ stars. You know what they say what happens I've Vegas stays in Vegas...

“As burns this saint, so burns my soul. I enter alive, and I will have to get out dead.”

Chase Winter let the love of his life slip through his fingers and into the hands of his best friend and mafia boss of the Abandanato family. Now that he's been given a second chance to right a wrong--he refuses to let his own selfishness stand in the way. The only problem? He's not fully in possession of his heart, so when Mil De Lange, the girl who's innocence he stole, and heir to the worst of the worst mafia families in the US, asks him for a favor. He actually says yes, not realizing that that one yes has the power to destroy them all.

Mil's been in love with Chase as long as she can remember, but as the years went by, the love turned to hate, and now that he's agreed to help her, she's wondering if she made a fatal error. Because Chase isn't a teenager anymore. He's a hot blooded male, bent on owning every part of her body and soul, and willing to kill anyone in his path who dares stand in the way.
It's time for secrets to finally be revealed...but make no mistake, it's going to take a lot of bloodshed for those truths to be discovered.

You've never read a New Adult Mafia story like this before...loyalties will be tested, lovers reunited, and friendships obliterated. Welcome to the Family. Blood in--No out.

Review for Beautiful Broken Promises by Kimberly Lauren

Best book that I've read thus far this year. I fell in love with it on the first page.
We met lane in Beautiful Broken Mess he's Aubrey's best-friend like her brother he's very protective of those he cares about. He's hot with a capital H, very loving and caring. Lanes body *whistles* is just damn he's one fine specimen of a man. He works with jace, Jaxson and Cole in Jace and Jaxsons family business they inherited when there father past. lane might be a big muscular intimidating guy but underneath he's all heart. As soon as I met lane I knew he had a deep secret he was hiding from everyone.

Now with Reagan I won't lie I didn't like her at first, for reasons you'll understand once you read the book. She's ends up being such a strong women and been through some ruff stuff which she never let break her spirit. She's a caring loving person someone you just can't help but love once you know her. When she loves it's with her whole heart and to me she's such a great person for it.

For four years Lane has been searching for something that is VERY important and dear to his heart (you have to read in order to find out what it is). Once Lane finds what he's been looking for its unexspected and changes his life like he never thought possible. Of course there's twist and turns in his life and all he wants is to be completely happy and he wonders at times if everything happened for a reason. Secrets are reveled and pasts come crashing back to haunt him will he get his happily ever after? Or will he be crushed in the end and for ever wondering what might have been?

Beautiful Broken Promises is the third book in the series but you can read it as a standalone. It has a great mix of love, hate, betrayal, mystery laughs, of course hot guys "sighs" and my favorite DRAMA. I could not put it down once I started it just sucks you in like no other. I also love that we get more of the whole gang Jace, Jax, Cole, Em, Quinn and Audrey. I give this book 5+++++++ stars I'd give it 100 stars if possible it was that GREAT. ITS A MUST READ. You will retreat passing this up.

THIS IS A total STAND-ALONE NOVEL. No need to read the first two books in the series to enjoy this book. This is not a dark romance.

Every day you stay gone
I die a thousand more deaths

Lane Parker has secrets he hasn’t even told his closest friends. He may have earned their respect but it’s undeserved. He may seem genuine but he’s a total fraud. He may look strong, but on the inside he’s weak and drowning with no chance of catching his breath any time soon.

After four years, Lane finally gets the call he’s been waiting for. Given back a piece of the life he’s been fighting so hard to reclaim, will he be able to handle everything that comes along with it? And if so, can all of his broken promises be redeemed?

So, I don’t give up and I won’t let them win
I will find you and I will make sure that you know
You’re my everything.

Review for Beautiful ink by Nicole Reed

O.M.G I'm not even sure were to begin with this one. AMAZING this book was just that great one of the best books I have read in awhile. Maybe even the best nook thus far this year. I am ashamed to say that I have never read a book Nicole Reed but I am defiently a big fan now.

You will meet Hellen Rudder aka (Keller) daughter of the MC clubs Vice President, tattoo artist and bestfriends with the MCs presidents son Holden. When tragedy strikes it leave Hels with nothing but her bestfriend and his parents ward and Sage. Hels has always loved Holden they grew up together he is her brother, lover and savior. Holden is a BIG part of her life. The one thing she has ever wanted was to not be part of the MC she wants out of that town and life. So when hold tells her he's quitting school to be a prospect for the MC that does not go over well with hels but because she know it's part of who he is in his blood she try to be ok with it. In the end she can't though so Hellen ends up skipping town, running actually and there are THREE rules for her to survive:
1) she has to give up tattooing
2)no staying in one place more then 6 months always keep moving
3) when the MC finds her she WILL be his and only his
The problem is tattooing is what Keller is it's part of her story and part of her soul. Just something she can't leave behind and she try's boy does she try.

" Tattooing is more then a job, more then a hobby. It's an intimate emotional and powerful thing to be marking someone for life. I am giving over a part of myself. In return I am fully in control of my world and everything around me,if only for that small gap of time."

Hels ends up working at screaming ink, where she will meet vin handsome virgin skin (before her) contractor and he soon becomes her everything problem is she gets sloppy gets feelings and wants to set up roots what happens when someone gets sloppy?..........she gets caught.

What will happen when it's time to pay the piper? Who will save her when she loves two guys that mean sooo much to her Vin? Which who exactly is he hmm? Or Holden her best friend her everything? Or no one at all?

"Blood in and blood out" he says kissing my neck between his words "your f*cking choice but know this: it is forever my blood that runs through your veins. And I will drown you in it before I let you escape me again."


I'm not going to lie I wasn't sure how I felt about reading Beautiful Ink. I have NEVER read a book about a biker MC. Now my HEART is bleeding but in the BEST possible way. This book is RAW, has PASSION, LOVE, LUST, SECRETS and of course DARKNESS lots of DARKNESS. My emotions were all over the place shoot they still are. I felt like I was having pregnancy hormones through this entire book for them being here there ams everywhere ever other minute. This is the type of book that will stay with you and remind us readers why we love to read in the first place. I give this book 5++++++++++ stars no ifs ands or buts about it it is an absolute MUST read. You WILL REGRET NOT reading it trust me. I have the book hangover from hell to prove it but I LOVE it. I will just say that I love Hels aka Keller and Vin but I LOVE LOVE Holden enjoy 😉

Family.

I have tattooed that single word on more skin than I care to count. It elicits powerful thoughts and emotions for most people.
Loving. Caring.
Supportive. Togetherness.
Forever.

But not for me. The word family means so much more.
Vicious. Harmful.
Dangerous. Corrupt.
Deadly.

You can’t run forever from the ones who love you.



NOTE: This novel is not a cliffhanger and can be read as a standalone.

WARNING: This book is real, beautifully raw, and not for the faint of heart. It is the story of a young girl’s loss of innocence while growing up around a motorcycle club. It is not suitable for children under the age of seventeen due to language, sexual content, and intense subject matter. Based on true events.

Review for Phenomenal X by Michelle A. Valentine

Wow just wow...I definitely just got a new book boyfriend :) and his name is Xavier cold aka phenomenal X. I was a little skeptical about reading this book since I have never read a book with the lead male being a wrestler but this book blow me away by a long shot.

You meet sweet innocent Anna who has her whole like mapped out for her by her overbearing father down to the man she'll marry. Well Anna has different plans and they don't include her hometown in Portland so she hops on the first flight to Detroit to live with her carefree aunt dee and cousin Quinn to start fresh to be someone SHE wants to be. Once on the plan she meets Xavier with is sexy body and blue eyes that just draw her in. It's instinct attraction on the spot for them both and of course X can't help watching her innocent face blush and make her swarm by his potty mouth and propositions her, which she turns down of course and is refreshing to him since he always has girls throw themselves at him, X is a little ruff around the edges but when. It comes to Anna he's sweet and becomes very protective of her and even though he warns Anna he's no good and to stay away because he has a past that haunts him Daily that he wouldn't even wish on his worst enemy, Anna thinks he's a great guy and just doesn't see it so she sticks around and they soon become fast friends. X helps her transition in a new city much more easier since she only knows her aunt and cousin. There is this sexually attraction between them from the start so they set rules so they don't cross the "friend zone" her only issue is that he could have any girl why her? And they do have there ups and down with there friendship because of it.
There rules:
1) no getting naked in his bed
2) no open mouth kissing
3). If either one starts developing feelings for the other person, they have to tell them

Seems innocent enough right....wrong they spend every free time they have together and there's something growing between them the question is will they give in to temptation and see where it leads??

I give this 5+++++ stars. This book was an unexpected read for me but I'm SO glad I read it. Once I started it I could NOT put it down I have a book hangover to prove it. Phenomenal X is a book about pasts, anger, insecurities, lust, friendship, hope and love everything one could want in a book. I HIGHLY recommend this book it won't disappoint.

Good Girl. Notorious Bad-Boy. One Phenomenal Love.

From the mean streets of Detroit rises the newest superstar of professional wrestling, Xavier Cold, better known as Phenomenal X. His muscular physique makes men cower before him and women lose their minds with desire.

Anna Cortez is fresh out of college and naive to the harsh realities of the real world. Tired of living under the thumb of her conservative family, she defies them when she accepts a job as the assistant to wrestling’s most notorious bad-boy. Phenomenal X has an animalistic nature that even good girl Anna finds hard to resist.

One night forced to share a bed in a sold-out hotel, lines blur between them and they quickly learn that one lustful night changes everything and neither one of them will ever be the same.

Review for Finding Us by Megan Smith

Megan Smith has done it once again in her new book Finding Us. I read this book in about 3 hours tops once I started it I just could not put it down. I have read every book she has published and loved them all so I am not surprised that I loved this one also.

Jasmine aka Jas grew up with the best of everything that money could buy. Except she wasn't happy by all means her parents were controlling in ever aspect of her life from social event to college even her classes it was all maped out for her. Once she graduated college she was gone moved away and never looked back she was done playing by her family's game she wanted to be who she wanted not her parents. She wanted to find herself and who wouldn't respect that? I know I did that's one of the reasons I love her because she was no longer going to put up with it. So she moved to the big apple with her best friend summer. Which is were she meets Rex who introduces her to his brother Knox.

Now I fell In love with Knox right away he was dark, handsome and and hiding something that could change everyone's life.. He owns all kinds of businesses and night clubs. Once he meets jas he's instantly attracted to her which becomes a problem for him because of his secret he also comes a BIG time grudge. The problem is will this this grudge could definitely brake them. The question is will Knox let it define him more then it already has?? Hmmm well your not getting the answer from me lol that's for you to find out. :)

All I'll say is I LOVE all of the characters in this book (I can't wait to read more of them)..there is romance, love, loss, drama, betrayal, and definitely a bunch of twists but most of all finding your self in the process. I give this book 5 stars across the board. It is an absolute must read you won't regret it.

Jasmine Jennings is running from her past, something she never wants to deal with again. Starting out fresh in a new city, life is finally looking up.

That is until she meets him — Knox Mitchell. She tries to elude him, but he’s everywhere. When she finally gives in, he begins to avoid her.

One tragic night, Knox’s future was ripped away. His body and soul crave revenge from the man who took everything away from him, but when Jasmine crashes into Knox’s muddled life, he’s torn. What is he supposed to do about falling for the girl who was to be part of his plan for retaliation?

When all secrets are revealed can they move forward without the past destroying any hopes of having a future?
