CARRIE'S REVIEW


I was happy to get to read Touched by You because I really enjoyed Touch Me. This is Chloe and Derricks story. 

Let me just start out by saying I had a love/hate relationship with Chloe! She seriously had me yelling at my kindle a time or two. I couldn't get past how self centered she was! Her selfishness really bothered me. She did redeem herself toward the end but be warned she will tick you off throughout the book. 

Derrick- oh my! What a wonderful man! HOT! Caring! Patient! He is everything you could want in a BB and more. Derrick really loved Chloe to put up with some of her selfish ways. 

I loved we also get a look at what is going on with Riley and Char from Touch Me book one. I always love seeing how past characters are doing in a series. 

Derrick and Chloe have a few road blocks along the way! Moving, job opportunities come about and other issues that need to be worked through. 

I give Touched By You 5 stars! It was a wonderful story! It had angst, heat,and leaves you wondering is love really enough? Will they be able to get through this time in their lives and be together? Read it and find out! I loved it from start to finish. 


SYNOPSIS 

Chloe and Derrick have spent most of their lives together as friends and as lovers; they have formed a connection that few couples can make last. This duo is bound by one thing that no one can destroy. They have been touched by one another and no one can take that away.  That is until one of them is forced to make a decision and their lives take on a different path.  Can these two withstand the reality of what lies ahead? Are they able to hold a relationship together with just the mere fact that they may love each other? Is it possible to maintain a bond that no one else has been able to touch? Chloe and Derrick may have the relationship others dream about, but sometimes things do get in the way and it can be impossible to forgive and forget.

EXCERPT 

Waiting to board a plane back to Boston, I sit here wondering if I made the right choices in life. Did I follow the path that would take me in the right direction? Could I have done something different that would change the outcomes I’m faced with right now? I haven’t seen or spoken to him in four months. Four long, torturous months dealing with what I did to us and our happily ever after. I know I’ll run into him soon, but when I do I’m not sure how he’ll react. He could accept me in an embrace or turn the corner and run the other way. What did I do? The choices I’ve made changed my life in only a short period of time and I fear I may have lost him forever. At one time he was all I ever knew. The two of us were so in sync with the other no force field could tear us apart. I can hear him whisper in my ear. “Chloe you and I will stand the test of time because I was touched by you and only you.” I, Chloe Taylor, am faced with a decision I may not like myself for in the next few hours. Only time will tell what is meant to be and for now I have a much bigger weight on my plate than that of my love life.

MJ Fields Blue Love Review



Title: Blue Love 
Author: MJ Fields 
Hosted By: Romance Addict Book Blog 

Kellie's Review: Tessa and Lucas' beginning story was nothing but turmoil and drama. I felt exhausted by the end with the constant back and forth with I love you, I hate you, I want you, I don't. And for a virgin Tessa sure moved fast with all three guys she was with in this book. It was frustrating to read but I was still drawn into the story and now have to read the rest to know where Lucas and Tessa end up. If Sadi really is pregnant I'll eat my shirt. I want everyone to get their HEA- except maybe Sadi......lol! Oh, and MJ? It's Blue October, not Blue December that sings Hate Me. They're my favorite band from my hometown so I noticed that typo right off. ;) Kellie

Synopsis In this New Adult / College, Coming of Age story Tessa Ross tries to fight her attraction to bad boy Lucas Links. He is hot, arrogant, and has a sexual past that most boys his age could only dream of, (If they even knew they could dream of such things). Lucas, the star quarterback seems to have it all, super star athletic abilities, expensive clothes, cars, and women who literally stop just to watch him walk by. On the outside he appears to have it all. Tessa is a young woman who lives her life always doing what is right to make everyone else happy. She tries desperately to hold herself accountable to the demanding expectations of her family and everyone around her. Is Tessa as innocent as she appears? Is Lucas just a spoiled young man who seems to have what every male, and female wants? If you Love an emotional story that is full of spicy hot goodness. If you Love to follow a story from beginning until the bitter sweet end. If you are often left wondering what happened next... get your tissues and lip balm ready you are in for the read of your life. As we all know, you should never judge a book by it's cover.

I am a very new self published writer. I will tell you I have always had a very vivid imagination. Starting at age 3 (as it states in my Baby Book). Sigma was my very first love (imaginary boyfriend). He lived about fifteen miles from my childhood home, (a farm). I took him chicken noodle soup every night on one of our families snowmobiles, (Summer, Fall, Winter, and Spring). Apparently he was very ill and "Thank God" I was able to take care of him. Next was my very first self publishing gig. At eight my cousins and I (and yes I was the president) wrote a newsletter and sold it to our family members. Years later I decided to put it back into print to entertain my cousin as she was on an aircraft carrier on 9/11 (Kick ass cousin BTW) and very far away from home during a very scary time for our country, (protecting our butts). Fast forward to 2012. I read 50 shades and thought, I can do that, (meaning writing). I have two complete series The Love Series, and Wrapped. I have two new series Burning Souls and Men of Steel. Ten books in 13 months. CrAzY and wonderful. I love love! ( I would love to reference Pinks new song here, however I am not sure if that would cause copyright issues.)I also tend to enjoy watching people grow and change with self realization and moments of clarity that just sneak up behind you and smack you in the head. I love people and have always been able to see both sides of a story. Each person that comes into our life leaves us with something it is what we choose to do with it that helps us grow. I live in central New York in the middle of nowhere and am surrounded by family and friend most the time. I run a small business out of my home and spend time reading and doing the typical Mommy things. Our house is full of pets and friends and noise ninety percent of the time, and I would have it no other way. I love people,music, laughter, hugs, and books.
