Not Hiding (Parker Siblings #3) by Leigh Ann Lunsford Review


Not Hiding (Parker Siblings #3)


There hasn't been a series in a long time that has me gunning for more... Leigh Ann I need more!! 

I absolutely loved Cambree & Max's story. Max was so sexy & forceful but in a very hot way. Cambree is his life that is clear to see. He would do anything for her and her family. My stomach knotted yet again, girly you truly know how to get a book to affect me. 
Again with the amazing banter between the whole Parker/James crew ;-) I had tears streaming down my face at the yard pranks to bring Mitch into the family. 

I loved that the truth finally came out and Mitch was made more than welcome, which I knew they would. 
Now Miss Leigh Ann, I need more Dustin, I wanted to hug the boy so much, I had a tear in my eye from his last words. Bless him. 

What an epic story/series.

DESTRUCTION- THE DECEMBER PEOPLE SERIES BY SHARON BAYLISS REVIEW

DESTRUCTION- THE DECEMBER PEOPLE SERIES
BY SHARON BAYLISS

I have got to say when I started reading this book I was a little nervous since it was a completely different genre then what I normally read. Sharon did a fantastic job with this story and got me out of my comfort zone and ready for more books like it.

While reading this book I had a hard time getting myself to put it down. David is a father to three children and has a great marriage to Amanda. He has a secret that he has been keeping from his family for more then ten years. one day he gets the call he thought he never would. Now he has to explain to Amanda not only did he have an affair but has two more children that he now has custody of.Amanda has a secret of her own and once it comes out nothing will ever be the same. Will magic help or pull this family apart even more?

Through out this book I wanted to cast many spells on David for cheating and breaking up his perfect family. At the end I realized he was not as bad as I thought. I was completely on edge through out the whole story. Everytime I thought I knew what was goibg to happen I was wrong. I will definitely be getting more books from Sharon and can't wait to see what is next.

A Deadly Bet (Summers #1) by Jen Cousineau Review

A Deadly Bet (Summers #1)


Veronica has never had a easy life and it's only getting worse. After escaping from a violent husband and faced with losing her family, Veronica turns to the only people she has left, the Summer Brothers. Can Veronica overcome her fears and her past? Or will her past come back to haunt her?

***WARNING: MULTIPLE SCENES OF SEXUAL VIOLENCE AND ABUSE. 18+ ONLY***

This book was one that was very different than any other book I have read. It is very dark but at the same time hopeful. I had a hard time at parts in the book because at times there seemed to be a lack of emotion. This can be expected of Veronica due to her history but I felt the lack of emotion was present in all the characters to a degree. With this being said, I will be anxiously waiting for the second installment of this series! I can't wait to hear Trey's story!! 

If you like books with a little danger then you will love this book!

I was given an ARC in return for an honest review.

WAKING UP BY RENEE DYER REVIEW

WAKING UP BY RENEE DYER REVIEW

Reading a story about a woman who has lost her husband is heart wrenching. Adriana struggles to let her late husband Alex go and her family and friends are worried for her. One day a sexy hot movie star turns up in her driveway, unable to turn the sexy Tucker Stavros away she offers to cook a meal for him. There is a underlining connection there but Adri refuses to see it or allow herself to feel it. 
Tucker has been hurt and cheated on so he travels to clear his head. When he meets the very beautiful Adriana, he also senses the connection but feels she won't let him in. I had high hopes for them. Slowly they connect but not 100%, Adri is still clinging to Alex for dear life even though Tucker wants more from her. I really wanted to shake Adri and tell her to just let Tucker in. But on the other side I wanted to shake Tucker and tell him she isn't worth it. Talk about push and pull feelings. Her friends accept him and I loved the banter between them and how they accepted Tucker into their little crew. She hurts him more than she knows but Tucker sticks it out, until he has to go back to work. Adri takes their newly started relationship and crushes it by leaving him at the airport after a goodbye kiss. 

I really hope that Adri lets him in, in the #2 book, they both deserve to be happy and fingers crossed it's with each other.

INVINCIBLE BY ALANA ALBERTSON REVIEW

INVINCIBLE BY ALANA ALBERTSON REVIEW

When I read the synopsis for this book my first thoughts were “Oh wow”. This book was going to be raw, intriguing, and quite possibly very emotional. And it did not disappoint. From the first pages you are drawn into a world of NAVY SEALS. When you think about a SEAL you think hero, be honest. But the hero in this story doesn’t start out as one. Patrick is out looking for a little pleasure and he’s willing to go to a brothel to get it. When he gets there he gets the surprise of a lifetime after he chooses “Star” out of a lineup. 

“My name is Annie Hamilton. I'm an American citizen. I was kidnapped from a cruise ship five years ago. You're my last hope. Please save me.”

Sex trafficking wasn’t unheard of and now he just landed smack dab in the middle of it. But can he believe a whore, a heroin junkie? Can he risk his career? Patrick can’t forget her eyes and the way she pleaded with him to save her. So he does what any SEAL does....he and his two friends try to save the day. But it’s just the beginning. There is much more to the story than they know.

I have read a lot of reviews about this book. And there are some people that really don’t like it...and I just don’t get it. I can’t understand why they didn’t enjoy it. This book was wonderful!! I was sucked in from the beginning. As I read I needed to know what happened. I was curious as to how Annie ended up where she was. Why she hadn’t been found sooner. I loved the relationship between Patrick and his friends Kyle & Vic (and can’t wait to read their stories in the next books). I thought the author was brilliant in the way she described the situations the characters were faced with. There isn’t much I would change about the book, other than make it longer!
