I read this book after tons of recommendations on how to get over my Christian (Fifty) crush. All I have to say is that it worked. I couldn't put it down until I finished it and then I read the entire book again the next day! Travis is amazing and gives you butterflies every time he shows up. I can't wait for the release of BD from Travis' POV...coming this year hopefully! One recommendation though, if you haven't read Thoughtless or Fifty Shades of Grey series, read these first. They are just as amazing, but BD tops the cake and you'll be yearning for something to fill the void. Nothing compares, so save this one for last.

How many times have you read a story, seen something in the news or even knew someone who was hiding a huge secret in their lives?  How often have the insecurities someone feels about their sexuality or the stigma that is often attached to certain lifestyles caused someone to live their life following the prescribed path they are expected to follow instead of following where their heart is truly leading them?

That is what has happened here with Dylan Reeves, a married man with three children.  He's the successful owner of a social network app that is setting the social media scene on fire.  He's put his company up for sale and in turn meets Tristan Wilder, a man who is a success in his own right, millionaire mogul of his own hi tech company Wilder-Nation.  When these two meet for the first time, the attraction is immediate and Dylan struggles with upholding his moral code and the promises he made, mostly to himself, of not disrupting his family.

Kindle did an excellent job of putting the reader straight into Dylan's head, feeling firsthand the struggles he was feeling, the insecurities he felt, but at the same time the intense desire he felt towards Tristan and the strong urge to finally follow the path that would lead him to ultimate happiness.

The connection between Dylan and Tristan is deep, their passion for each other intense.  Dylan has denied himself that which would have made him happy all these years because he steadfastly and consistently put his families needs ahead of his own.  He's buried his true feelings and desires so deeply for so long that he's not sure he will ever get to a point of comfort or acceptance of what he is seeking.  Luckily, Tristan feels as strongly for Dylan as he can tell Dylan feels for him, and he is a man that doesn't shy away from what he wants.

This is a story of discovering one's self and allowing people into your true heart and soul.  Beautifully written, Kindle touches on several topics that portray what real life people, families, struggle with every day.  It is a story of love and acceptance and finding one's balance in life.  Remarkable story, chock full of feels at every turn.  I found myself tearing up a few times, but they were happy tears so it's all good!!

I haven't read a Kindle Alexander book that I didn't love and this one is no exception.  Kudos to you, Kindle!!

Damn I loved this book!!! I read it in 2 days!!!! It was literally hard to put down. I know my bf loves me, but damn did Travis love Abby and I wish my bf said half the things Travis said to her, to me. This book will have u anxious and have ur heart racing so fast at times with all the twist and turns and heart stopping moments. It will even make u cry. Ur main focused would be to get to the happy ending (which there is btw). I would definitely read this again.  MUST READ PPL!!!!

I gave this book 5 stars because of the writing by Marie Force. She is able to describe the characters to you in such detail, it is astounding. Travis is romantic, yet a little broken. This story really makes you root for the couple! Marie Force has done it again!

3/4 awesome stars!!
Wow, just wow. As I'm sitting here thinking back on this book I have many different emotions, I went through sadness, elation, confusion, and heart break. That's an awful lot of emotions to go through in one book! Lucia Franco made feel all these emotions in one book and I need more!
Olivia had it all it seemed, a devoted boyfriend, friends that just graduated college with her, her future looking bright. Livey had a bigger dream, could she chase her dream and leave her current life behind, even the love of her life? That's the toughest choice she will ever make and she will question it every day.
Luke is the country boy that doesn't want to leave home, he loves the small town and his friends and family but most of all he adores his girlfriend Olivia. Luke has a voice for the stage and writes all his own songs for fun. Can a small town boy who's heart is stomped on recover in the limelight?
This story follows both of their lives through the past and the present and it's an awesome way to read their story. It's of oove and loss and finding what the heart wants after all.
I want more Luke and Livey, they are the cute couple you want to last. I want to read about their lives like they are my own. I want a window seat to all that will happen in the years to come.
One click this you will not regret it!!

WAIT sang to my soul with utter perfection.

Austin has become one of my new favourite leading men.

Whenever Amy puts pen to paper she writes from the heart and you can feel every ounce of emotion flowing of the page with every written word.

This book was no exception, I knew the fact it was about Austin, the broken young boy from Baz and Shea's story, would be heartfelt and I guessed right that it would be difficult in places, because of his broken past. What we received was beautiful, every emotion was touched, it was a roller coaster of a ride over and over again.

Austin, was full of angst and tortured himself over the death of his twin brother that he left the Sunder house 3 years before. He is still a broken man and feels that being close to the sea is is repentance and punishment whilst being close to his brother.  He is singing and playing as it is when he feels free.

Fate has a funny way of showing a path we need to take to heal and for Austin it brings Edie back into his life, 4 years since they broke each other's hearts.

Edie has been running from a broken past and a broken heart, one which was shattered by the man that is now in front of her, but is he the only one that can fix her and vice a versa.

2nd chances don't come along that often, and this isn't a straight forward light and airy one, this is full of dark and angst that could crack at the lightest of touches, but is what the other needs.

The supporting cast is amazing, and we even get to see the Sunder family, who I love and this book can proudly sit amongst them.

This is what Amy is so very brilliant at and why I will never tire of reading her words or her books and am in awe as to how they just keep getting better and better.

Thank you Amy for Austin and Edies Story

Now I'm ready for Stay and Ash !!

Wonderful book! Man, I loved Travis. Ginger bears are my favorite! anyway, the sweetness of the romance really pulled me in. I think I cried harder with this book than I have in a while. The scene that slew me? Wesley visiting Shannon's grave. It was beautiful. Brandon Witt must be the sweetest, fuzziest teddy ever. I always believe that when I fall in love with a character in a book it's really an aspect of the author I'm seeing. Anyway. His boyfriend is a luck S.O.B. Oh, wait, I'm supposed to be talking about this book. Just buy it and read it, you'll love it

I cannot get enough of Sloane's books! Her stories have so much heart and her characters are so real that I end up in tears with every book. Nolan and Dallas' story is no exception. My heart ached for these two men and soared when they found their way at last. I already cannot wait to read how Maddox tames Isaac!

The Catch is the conclusion to Easton and Scout's book, and it is a very raw and emotional ride at times. Things I expected to happen, didn't, but things that did happen I never saw coming. I laughed, I cried, I swooned and got mad several times. Their love is tested, but sometimes someone comes along that loves the parts of you no one else knows how to love, and that person makes you strong when you are weak, makes you happy when you are sad, and helps you face things you never thought you would have to face.
This is a passionate story of relationships, friends, family, and unconditional love. A kind of love that allows you to grow, change and mature as is the case with Scout and Easton. The relationship between Easton and his mom is so special and at the same time so bittersweet. And I absolutely loved Daisy, the how and why of her, you will have to read the book to find out what I am talking about.
I highly recommend this duet to any romance lover, and if you have never read a book by K. Bromberg, you are in for a real treat. Five magical stars for this one!!

Sad, poor baby Travis. Some funny moments in the midst of nice and sweet. Like Travis, he was so protective of Abby. I like that America was a good friend to Abby, but most of the time she came across as obnoxious, plus did not like how she treated Shepley sometimes. My least likable character, she was so city and controlling. A very emotional book, kept me teary frequently. Travis was so torn when thinking of his mom, it broke my heart, I love him, and love how Abby and Travis loved each other. Heart broken, moving story. My heart was constantly in pins and needles. Great, great ending l love Travis!

First I have to say that I read this book without really knowing anything about it! Travis is this tattooed bad boy with a corporate job and college degree. Viola is top of her class in college and has so much on her plate. She has known Travis for so long but one mistake when they were young and every time they are around each other the words are loose at the mouth! Break time has Viola staying at Travis's who is roommates with her brother and we have a recipe for disaster! The chemistry is through the roof! Travis will melt your panties and have you so excited to turn the page! Things start to heat up between them and it seems love is around the corner but that would be too easy! Cliffhanger alert!!! I know I usually am a no go with these kind of stories but it is well worth it! Love all the characters in this story! I give it 4 stars!

I am on a complete book high after I finished this book. The word beautiful doesn't even begin to describe it. I loved every single moment.

Blindness is easily one of my favorites of 2014.

Charlie Hudson was born to a junkie mother, and was dropped of at her father's (Mac) house at the age of 7. Her mother never looked back. Charlie's dad became her best friend as she got older, when suddenly she lost in. In losing him, she also lost herself. Cody Carmichael is a former motocross star. He now works in an autoshop while also attending school. Charlie and Cody collide in the most unexpected way possible. It was fate.

Without giving it away, Cody and Charlie have been living parallel lives. When their lives cross paths, neither is the same. When Charlie meets Cody she is drawn to him immediately. Not just his looks. His demeanor, everything. But he can't have her. She isn't his to have.

"Your touch Charlie, is it for me. You're the end of me-and the beginning"

Charlie thought she knew what love felt like, until Cody showed up in her life. Blindness is one of the most beautifully written stories that I have ever read. THE FEELS. They're real. Raw. Genuine. All Consuming. Their first kiss is THE first kiss of ALL kisses. It was so heartfelt. The chemistry between Charlie and Cody is undeniable. Inevitable. It's natural.

"That's how I love you, you know? With everything"

The moment you realize just how real they are? When Charlie tells Cody something that is so close to her heart. Charlie's dad, Mac is a special person to her, and she misses him everyday. In the prologue it is all explained. You feel her pain. The numbness. There's parts of her that she doesn't share with anyone, and that is Mac. She shares it with Cody. Stars. That is all I can say. This part made me ugly cry. This allowed them to connect on such a deep level. She bared her soul to him and he accepted it by giving her the most beautiful moment. Words cannot describe how much this touched me. And it will touch you. She never allowed herself to live. With Cody she is not only living, but she is breathing.

Cody sees Charlie for who she truly is. He looks into her rather than at her, he loves her whole heart and soul. And it kills him that she isn't his. And it hurts her just the same. Giving it away would be a disservice to anyone who hasn't read the book, but life got in the way. It was always supposed to be Charlie and Cody. Always.

"And I know I've never been in love before, because I would have remembered what this felt like."

Blindness captured my heart and has not let it go. I have read work by this author and have loved it. But this book? This story? Flawless.  My heart was beating through the entire story. For Cody. For Charlie. For true love. Love that knows no boundaries. Love that goes where it's unexpected. I was absolutely blown away by how much I connected to this story. If you want to experience once of the most heart felt stories ever, read Blindness.

Wow this book was heart wrenching!  I wish there was another way for Charlie to accept and understand how much Travis loves, needs, and appreciates him but with his personality there probably wasnt.  I loved how deeply we were able to connect with Charlie in this book, I felt every peak and valley of his emotional roller coaster as the book progressed.

Ms. Walker has done an amazing job developing the world and supporting characters in this novel.  So much so that based on behavior in the second novel I was able to predict one of the major crises affecting Charlie in this book.  It was very interesting to watch Charlie juggle all of his responsibilities and emotional baggage.  I think all of us go through a time in our lives when personally, our life feels like it is falling apart but professionally, we are succeeding or vice versa.

I was very satisfied with the ending and while things seem hunky dory at Sutton Station now, I would be perfectly happy reading three more books with these wonderful characters.

Such a sweet story.  I loved the way the author took the time to build the relationship between Summer and Travis, taking them from a mild rivalry to friendly banter, an unlikely partnership, and eventually love.  I loved how Travis could tease Summer one moment, but the next be the only person who truly listened when she began to talk weather.  His grand gesture was incredibly sweet, too!  Both characters had some things to figure out on their own, and it took some time for them to realize what they wanted out of life.  I identified with Travis' struggles with deciding "what he wanted to be when he grew up" and trying to balance the expectations of others with ones own desires.  Mostly, I appreciated a story that was full of heart, that acknowledged the importance of family, and that made me swoon and sigh as the characters fell in love.

Travis and Noel are true love personified.  Each learn to trust the other and the strong protection that Travis has for Noel knows no bounds!

You are my dream now, December Howard. You are everything to me. My heart beats for you , my soul is only whole when you're near. Youre my home, my shelter, my wildest fantasy, and I can not imagine a future where you're not mine, because Im yours in every sense of the word.

You and me? he whispered against my lips. Against the world, I promised. And what a beautiful world it was. Our world.

I have been a fan of the Flight & Glory series ever since I picked up Full Measures. And with each book, I have fallen more in love with the characters and their stories. So, when I heard about Hallowed Ground and that we were getting more Josh and Ember, I just knew I had to read it. What I didn't know was how much this book was going to effect me. I haven't been able to stop thinking about Hallowed Ground since I finished it. Hallowed Ground took me on such an incredible journey; one that I wasn't expecting. It was beautiful and heartbreaking. There were moments where I felt like my heart was being ripped out of my chest and I hurt so much for what the characters were going through. But, I have to tell you, their story; it was worth it. It was worth every moment that I had to walk away. It was worth every moment when I felt like I was going to throw my kindle. It was worth every moment where I had tears in my eyes. It was worth every moment that I fell in love and had my heart broken.

Hallowed Ground is well-written and utterly captivating. Just when I thought I couldn't love these characters anymore, Rebecca Yarros has proved me wrong. She has found a way to make me connect so deeply to these characters that I feel as though they are a part of me. She made the characters so real and their emotions so palpable. I felt like I was experiencing everything right along with them. And along the way, these characters found a way to burrow themselves deep into my heart. Yes, this is supposed to be Josh and Embers story, but it so, so much more.

I will not go into any of the details of this story, but I will say this: Have tissues handy. Be prepared for a wild, emotional ride. Be prepared to have your mind consumed with this story. This book is everything and has easily made it to my list of top reads for 2016. If there is one book/one series that you should read this year, I highly recommend that you check out this Flight & Glory series by Rebecca Yarros. You will not be disappointed.
