Wildest Dreams (Fantasyland #1) by Kristen Ashley, Narrated by Tillie Hooper 1st in a series of Fantasy Standalones I do a lot of Kristen Ashley re-reads via audible.

I read The Mighty Storm back in October {my review}, and I can easily say it is one of my favorite Rock Star books ever, and in fact, one of my favorite books of 2012. It ended well, and frankly, the story could have ended there (not that I wanted it to). Knowing there would be more Jake Wethers? I… Read More
Keep reading for a HUGE GIVEAWAY and Part 3 of 5 of the exclusive, secret scene. I met Brie close to a year ago, when I first started this blog. At that point, the blog ran a little steamier in nature, and I found a short, sexy novelette  about a young lady named Brie who enrolled in a submissive training… Read More
Because of You by T.E. Sivec is the second in her Playing With Fire Series, the first being A Beautiful Lie {review} where we first get to meet Brady.

How many of you re-read books? Until I read Twilight, (I know….Twilight? But those sparkly fucking vampires renewed my love for reading, big time) I don’t think I ever re-read anything before. But I noticed I enjoyed them just as much, if not more than the first time. You can be so caught up in the story the first time,… Read More
In preparation to read Reflected In You (Crossfire #2) I read Bared To You again. I read Bared To You the first time in April 2012. It was actually one of the reasons I started this blog.

First thing you need to know about Love Unscripted by Tina Reber, besides that I absolutely loved it even more the second time, is that it is L-O-N-G. This is not a bad thing! Not at all. This is a like reading a book trilogy all in one. And I would have been happy and satisfied if it ended after… Read More
