I totally fell in love with him

Filthy Rich by Virna DePaul is the first book that I have read by this author. Personally I have never been a big fan of CEO/Billionaire type romances but, Filthy Rich was so much more than I expected. The blurb will pull you in and keep you turning page after page.

In the story we meet Cara. She is a workaholic to say the least. She is caring, loving and works her butt off for what she has and is a very likable character. Cara is also a loving caretaker to her family. She and Braden have that in common. Then we meet Braden. He is a self-made Billionaire and I expected him to be egotistical and brash. He was anything but those things. I totally fell in love with him! Braden was 100% swoon worthy!

I was honestly and happily surprised by how well written this book was. The story has everything you could want in it. There is lots of angst, suspense and just the right amount of steam. There are even some surprise twists that I didn't see coming. I love when I think I have guessed who did what and then BOOM, plot twist! LOL!

This story will suck you in and leave you begging for more. I look forward to reading more from Ms. DePaul.

Holy heartbreak! I am completely in love with this couple once again. Never have I had such an explosion of feelings for a Hero and heroine. Everything they've gone through has been incredibly intense, whether it's the sadness, the anger, the love or the fear they've experienced. I couldn't put this book down! It was so emotional and tough to read at times but I devoured it at a rapid pace because they both deserve redemption, badly. I heart them so much!

There is an unbelievable amount of progress made towards healing for both Callie and Kayden in this book. It's a bit more weighted in Kayden's favor, as in he seemed to have the heavier issues to deal with this time around or rather he seemed to have more difficulty dealing with said issues. (Callie's issues were a tad more central in the first book.) They both exhibited an extreme amount of courage and bravery by confronting their demons head on.

Callie and Kayden were made for each other. The way they support one another is amazing. They found strength together in dealing with their own personal issues but were also able to find strength in confronting them on their own.

"I love that he asks. I love it even more that I want to do it. I want to be with him. I can be with him. Only months ago, the idea seemed out of reach, nonexistent, impossible. But now, with him, everything inside me has changed and my heart and soul aren't so shadowed anymore. He is my light and I hope one day that I can be his."

Have no fear Callie. You are totally his light. Totally.

"There's this mind-blowing moment when I realize something. Someone understands me. Callie understands me. She gets it and she's not afraid of me or what's inside me. And while I don't understand it, I want it- I want her."

Oh, dear, sweet Kayden...

Along with Callie and Kayden, I am once again in love with Seth. He truly is the ultimate BFF. He continues to be there for Callie; pushing her out of her comfort zone and encouraging her to move on (by taking baby steps) from her past. Seth provides the comic relief, the love and the "foodgasms". I swear everyone ate their weight in pancakes in this book!

Luke was great too. There were further hints at what he dealt with in his past and we for sure know something big is coming in his future. His book is coming out next after all. It'll be hard to wait until then but I'm excited!

With all of my gushing, why did I not give it five stars you ask? An epilogue at 85% makes me very nervous. I immediately thought man, am I somehow getting lots of resolution and rainbows in this last part; by having this long epilogue? I mean, I knew it couldn't be a storybook ending because of all that had happened but I was hoping for a little more closure. It's not like the huge cliffhanger book one left you with but the recent information revealed at the end equated to a pretty big something for a couple of the characters. I know it's leading into book three but still... I guess I just didn't get enough Callie and Kayden closure. He may have confessed something to Callie (via phone was the only way we got it *pouts*) but they weren't even in the same state as one another at the end! Be forewarned: The last page is at 88%.

A must read for those who've read The Coincidence of Callie and Kayden!

Side note: The grammatical errors drove me nuts. I thought I was going crazy when I saw the name Callie Owens. Wait, what?

He is super adorable and I just love him. I bought him for Halloween but he might have to decorate my desk all year. I just love him so much.

I'm in love with HIM.
His need to dominate. His elaborate fantasies. His ability to bend me to his will and have me love every extreme moment. And I did promise to do anything to save the gallery.......

Alluringly beautiful, art come to life that will leave you HOT one moment, then raw the next. The emotional roller coaster is worth every word. I felt every emotion. And months later I'm still thinking about them. This is not your average erotic fantasy story, it's beyond that. It's fantasy come to life. And the ending was something I didn't see coming.....

I loved every moment.

First off, I absolutely adore that cover! I've never been to Napa Valley but the stunning imagery in this book transported me there. I could see it so clearly in my mind and I could envision the gorgeous Jamie, too. I think I fell in love with him before Kate did! He was such a romantic, so sweet and genuine, caring and lovable, and so was Kate and Jamie's story. Highly recommend this one!

I went into reading Summer Fling totally blind and not knowing quite what to expect. I love nothing more that a crazy good young adult/first time love story, and I could not have asked for a better story. Who doesn't love that spine tingling feeling a first love creates. Summer Fling provided all those feelings and more. This is the first book I have read by Jerica MacMillan, and my goodness, what a thrill it was.

Lance was the most charismatic character I have read for ages. He just oozed that special something that just stood out for me. He liked to share himself around with the ladies, and they were not too upset about that fact. His future seems mapped out for him, and with plans to return to run the family business,  he was not expecting everything that was Abby. Abby is unlke anyone he has met before, and he finds that he wants to spend more and more time with her. A totally new feeling for him.

Abby has her guard up and does not trust Lance. At all. She cannot deny the attraction between them , but she has too much going on in her life to take Lance and his advances very seriously. They have many times of tension and anxiety, but this young love was not to be stopped.

Jerica MacMillan is an incredibly talented author that really knows how to spin a beautiful love story. I experienced many feelings and battled the highs ad lows along with the characters. Lance, Abby and their group of friends were a real treat to read about. I am slightly addicted to The Players of Marycliff University series, and cannot wait to sink my teeth into book two. 5 stars

Wow!

This book just makes you fall totally in love from the first page all the way until the end.

Not only is Colleen Hoover a very talented writer she is also a really awesome person from what I see of her on social media. Which doesn't shock me because if you've read her writing you know it has to come from the heart of someone pretty freaking incredible!

I don't think I can even put this read into words to make a great review. Maybe I will have to come back and do so.

I don't think I ever read a character of the males species that I just loved so much until I met Miles. I'm sort of jealous, because not only am I a reader I am also an author and this creation of man is what I think every other author dreams of doing in their own books!!

It's crazy because Miles drove me crazy in some ways but it still didn't stop how swoon-worthy he was. He had a bunch of inner demons he was fighting with and I love the way you slowly learn about it.

The chemistry between Tate and Miles was just so on point. Tate was everything I want to read in a female character and just every inch and ounce and letter was just so superb.

The entire book left me with a big heart full of all kinds of feelings.

Sometimes I wish Colleen was one of my best friends so I could just pick her brain and see where she comes up with this s*** because it's really ridiculous just how amazing she is at writing.

Okay, that's all for now. *waves*

P.s.

This review is coming from someone who has a hard time sticking with a story. If a book can keep me interested it's a really freaking good book!

I can't tell you how happy I am to finally have the conclusion to Giovanni and Clara's story.  When I started this series with Tough Love, I INSTANTLY fell in love with these two.  They were young and their love was so innocent, yet true.  With Clara being a mafia princess and Gio being a foot soldier, they were in two different leagues, but they managed to spark a love that was just so adorably sweet.  They were so devoted to each other and Gio didn't give it a second thought when it came sacrificing himself to help Clara escape that life.

Years later, Clara is in college with a budding art career that's already getting the attention that most artists hope for.  So when she realizes that she's being dragged back into the life she escaped from and never wanted to be a part of, she's fearful and confused to find out the man she longed for was behind it all.

I was still in awe of how much they loved each other.  The longing they each felt was palpable to me.  Clara grew into such a strong young woman and that was largely due to the way she was raised.  It ended up working to her advantage.  Giovanni was a tortured soul, but he couldn't continue his life without Clara.  Even as a hot and brooding sexy mafioso, he was the same Gio I fell in love with in their novella.  Even with the time and distance between them, he only had eyes for Clara and she owned his heart.  Awww, I just wanted to melt into a puddle when his soft side showed. Gah! I love him.  And the fact that their devotion spanned years, it's just so heart warming that they managed to keep their love so true...even in a world like theirs.

Giovanni and Clara are my favorite characters and their story is my favorite of this series.  I can't put into words how happy I am to finally see them get their moment. *happy dance*

THANK YOU LAURELIN PAIGE for creating HUDSON PIERCE!!!! I'm totally in love with this man, despite his many screw ups and hurtful deceit and his dark side. I have been on this man's side from the very beginning, there was just something about him, the way the author wrote him that tugged at my heart. The most simpliest sentences revealed how vulnerable he truly is deep down.

*sigh*

Then there was Laynie, her obsession goes over the top in this book, with good reason. I thought these two had overcome the shit storm, then BOOM! here comes a blizzard of "holy shittines". I cannot believe what these two had thorught over and over again in so little time.

I can understand both sides, when it came down to who wronged whom, and who needed to work for the forgiveness and fight for the relationship if they wanted it to work out.

Of course it does not help, when the Witch from hell keeps popping into their lives and mess everything up! God if I could write myself into the story the first thing I would is whack Celia, in the most painful and cruel way I could possibly come up with. That woman seriously needs to die, like yesterday.

Gods, there were moments where I literally feared Laynie and Hudson would never work it out and be together. This series is the perfect emotional investment you need in a series, it had all of the good stuff and then some. Kudos to you Laurelin, this is a series you can be proud of to have written.

Oh my gosh! I freaking fell in freaking love with each and every character in this book! I freaking fell in love with this book! Honestly it was so good!

Great writing, perfect chemistry and banter, wonder plot and character development, and a wonderful blossoming love story! I simply couldn't get enough.

Anyta Sunday has always been one of my favourite authors and she just raised the bar! I know I'm gushing and not really reviewing, but dang, let a girl gush! Lol

5 amazing stars!

Ps. Can we get more of the zodiac love stuff? Where Penny gives readings to singles looking for love? And maybe cameos with Jamie and Theo???? AND dying to see a Pisces one as well!

The Forever Series is one of my all time favorites and Collin has made me fall in love with them even more.

Collin was hurt by his first love and he vowed to not get close or let himself fall in love with another woman again. He drank too much and had sex with a different girl each night to help him forget what Hailey did to him. Connor and Ellery are worried about him and recognize that he is acting just like Connor did before meeting Ellery.

As messed up as Collin is, he has a huge heart. He befriended a sick boy on an airplane and helped him and his mother out by giving them a place to stay while Jacob receives treatment for CF. He also got Jacobs mother a job at Black Enterprises. Collin becomes very close and emotionally attached to them both.

Collin goes to the beach house to get away and ends up passed out drunk on the beach. Like his father years earlier, Collin was helped home by a beautiful woman, Amelia, who literally tripped over him on the beach. There was something about Amelia that drew Collin to her. He could sense a deep pain and sadness in her. Neither one of them were looking for love or a relationship, but end up drawn to the other.

This is a story about healing and finding love and family. I loved Collin and Amelia's story and I loved having more of Connor and Ellery and their unending love and sexual antics.

I loved this book so freaking much. I saw where another favorite author of mine had recommended it and I jumped at the chance to read it. Now I know why! I just loved the story. Poor Alex hiding his pain from everyone who cares for him and poor Rafe with his adorable stutter. How anyone could treat these guys the way they did is beyond me. I fell in love with Rafe after just a moment of reading about him and my feelings only got stronger the more I read. Alex, well jeez what can you say about that sexy boy lol. I will just say he is a very complex character and when we get an inside look at why it will make you a bit teary. I have enjoyed laughing and crying with these guys and I cannot wait to read more by this author. I don't know what I have been waiting for lol.

(NO SPOILERS, I PROMISE) Firstly let's get this out there before I begin- I thought I would never find another book that would break my dark, soulless heart again  after I read THE SEA OF TRANQUILLITY, well I was wrong. (okay, maybe that was an exaggeration- I do have a soul and it's not that dark)
This man is pure genius. I was caught up in the pages of this story right away.
What Dylan went through broke my heart. How he described his feelings and experiences disintegrated what was left of it.
How Alex loved the new man he had become as much and if not more so than the boy she loved before his tour.

This book had me cry, laugh and think about all the soldiers who place their life on the line for our freedom. I thought of all their families, their loved ones who worry for them during tour and after.
Charles Sheehan-Miles brought all those feelings to the surface for me in a beautiful love story.

I love you Charles, Thank you.

Honestly, check this book out. You won't regret it!
