Kian by Tijan  captivated my interest  from the start and did not let go.  In this story you meet Jordan, a girl who has living under a new identity for the past two years. She doesn't  let too many people into her life and even those she does, they don't  know the real her.  That was someone she had to let go of after being rescued and aftermath of the high profile case.
Jordan was rescued by Kian, and in the process he killed her foster  father.  Now he is out of jail and looking for her.  She knew it would  be inevitable, but can she let herself trust a known killer?

There were many twists and turns  in this plot, which  kept  me  burning through  the pages.  I am a fan of Tijan  and cannot  wait to read more from her.

I am a huge fan of Tijan, even though I'm not generally a fan of books set in high school. Something about these characters is so compelling that I'm sucked into their world. The last 30 pages had my heart beating fast and my palms sweating. That never happens to this Jaded reviewer.

I have been a fan of Tijans since I first picked up Fallen Crest and that hasn't changed at all.  I was really excited when I got word of her surprise release.  I immediately had to go one-click that.  And it was another hit.  Its a spectacular story about going home, finding yourself and healing.

Jonah is downright sexy, strong and everything a girl could want in a man. Dani is beautifully broken.  Shes at times vulnerable and strong.  I did find her difficult to connect with at times.  She avoids conflict like its the plague and runs away from problems before you can blink.  Shes not as strong and independent as Tijans previous heroines but I think that makes her unique. The secondary characters are just as great adding depth and color to the story whether you loved them or hated them.  But Jonah was definitely the star of the show.  Tijan definitely knows how to write guys that steal your heart.

But its more than just a romance.  Theres family drama, ex-boyfriend drama and town dramaa lot of little subplots that circle around the romance that kept me enthralled.  I just wanted to know what was going to happen next.  Yeah, this is not a low drama book.  And definitely not an angst-free one.  There are a lot of emotions in these pages.  I definitely laughed, cried, smiled.  If you like something thats angsty, I highly recommend you one-click this today.

Fallen Crest Forever by Tijan

I'm not giving anything away, I think, but since it's in the first paragraph...OMG, she said yes!!!!!! I was on pins and needles and had to wait a whole 8 hours for her answer!!! (Going from the end of Home to Forever).
I've been trying to figure out why I am so in love with this series, with this book. The loyalty has always been a reason. The way Mason, Logan, and Samantha have bonded and stayed together is beautiful. But in this book, I think what stands out to me is that they are, what every person who has ever been bullied, who has ever been truly alone, wishes they had. Not many have experienced the type of aloneness that Sam had. A parent left, boyfriend cheating with her best friend, friends desert her, and then she moves in with the enemy.  For those of us that have experienced it, we know Sam's responses are spot on. We wished there was a Logan to make us laugh and watch our back as a brother. We wish that our soul mate was there too, to end the utter loneliness. Sam is rescued and in return rescues her new step brother and fianc&eacute;. I love this series! I love these characters! I'm going to miss them, but I think that will only make me do a re read sooner! The end of this book and this series is utterly satisfying. I finished 4 hours ago and am still tearing up, in a good way. Thank you, Tijan for this beautiful world you created for us!

Tijan is AMAZING!!!! I'm not surprised by her AMAZINGNESS, what I am amazed about is that this book was really, really good!!!  I loved Brielle and Luke.  I think my favorite stories are ones that start when they are young friends and grow up together.  There were lots of twists in this story but if you have read any of her other books this does not come as a surprise!!!  I was worried after reading and loving Fallen Crest that her other books would let me down ~ THIS ONE DID NOT!!!!!!

The 5th instalment of this series, and boy did it pack a punch. Great little twist, certainly not disappointed by Tijan's latest offering. Have grown to love the characters, and their dramas they face. Enjoyed this book and will continue to buy this series.

Tijan knows how to keep me coming back for more and this book did not disappoint.  Reality that's what it is.  Not every story is a fairy-tale, but this girl gets lucky, she gets a soul mate and his brother is an extension of that. Logan is also her brother and best friend.  Both of the brothers are exceptional and will do anything to protect her.  Sam has learned she has power of her own, that she can be the person they both need to lean on as well. Growing up hasn't been easy but with her new found strength it's going to be better.  Can't wait for #5.  Will try to be patient, NOT!

Hate to Love You is a classic Tijan story. It is everything I expected from her and more. I know this book will not be for everyone. It deals with some difficult, hard hitting issues, but a lot of Tijan's books do deal with them. It has a dark feel to it because of these issues. But that will not keep you from falling in love with Kennedy and Shay.

These two were a match made in heaven if their relationship started off chalk full of animosity and hatred. Preconceived notions and past skeletons really shook them from the beginning and things just spiraled from there.

One of the things I love about Tijan's writing is the strong bonds that she creates between the friends and the family of the lead characters, and this was no exceptions. I loved Kennedy and her brother's relationship and her mother was so quirky you couldn't help but adore her. Linde, Kristina, and Casey were also amazing side characters and I honestly hope we get more stories from their points of views.

This story will keep you on the edge of your seat right up until the ending not knowing what will happen but you know in your gut that something will happen.

This was a book of pain. Of grief. Of questions without answers. Broken and Screwed was just that. And it was awesome. Alex broke my heart with loss, after loss, after loss. How much pain can you endure before you break? I am writing this stunned, shell shocked from the ending, and anxious as to what the next installment will bring. Tijan is a master! 5 stars isn't enough for the emotional roller coaster this book sent me on. This is a must read!

This cd is a brilliant follow up album to "Little Earthquakes."  Every single song on here is a masterpiece.  All the songs are genius, lyrically and musically!
"Pretty Good Year" is just gorgeous and bitter sweet.
"God" questions the idea of why do bad things happen to good people.  It also has a really nice rock edge to it.
"Bells for Her" is about the abuse that a friend of hers suffered, and the piano is absolutely haunting.  The piano was deconstructed and then reconstructed and various metal cans and ball bearings were put in it to give it that sound.
"Past the Mission" has a jazzy sort of sound to it, kinda like carnival music and would be the type of song that would be radio friendly.  Very beautiful.  Trent Reznor from NIN also sings backup to Tori on this one.
"Baker Baker" is absolutely heart wrenching.  Anyone who has ever had a tough breakup with someone will fall to pieces when hearing this.
"The Wrong Band" is another great song.  A really great sound to this song.
"The Waitress" has such a hilarious song lyric in it.  You'll have to hear for yourself, but once you hear it and laugh a bit, it's message is quite strong and has a lot of meaning behind it.
"Cornflake Girl" of course is the single of the album, a really radio friendly song and it is great to rock out to.  Tori really goes to town on the piano in this one.  Great music and really catchy lyrics!  Great song to drive to!
"Icicle" has got to be one of my favorites from this album if not the favorite.  The lyrics in this are just priceless.  It's about realizing one's sexuality and growing up.  A really beautiful song with nice piano work and Tori's voice is amazing.
"Cloud on my Tonge" is another gorgeous song.  This one is sung with so much emotion.
"Space Dog" can only be described as funky and quirky.  The lyrics are a bit off the wall, but that is what makes the song loveable.
"Yes, Anastasia" is a wonderful end to the cd.  The lyrics and music are very dramatic.
Overall, this is such an incredible album!  Rolling Stone magazine listed this as one of the essential albums to have in your cd collection, and I would also agree!

i love sam, mason and the crew.  I adore Tijan. She is one of my favorite authors, but the fallen crest series is my favorite thus far.  I did think this was the was the last book for sam and mason, and i cannot wait for the next installment.  The only negative thing I have to say is i am a bit sad I have to wait..but on the brightside.  I am looking forward to Substain.  Thank you Tijan.

Susan Egan is brilliantly talented and utterly amazing to behold. Her creamy vocals will melt you one moment and break your heart the next. Her sass will make you laugh and cheer! This CD, though some tracks are not my favorite songs, definitely shows her great diversity and range. Bravo.

I can't even begin to say how much I loved this book! It has been a wild ride with this series, some books in this series I almost hate to reread because Tijan is so amazing at portraying the emotions and it hurts me to for her characters to be hurt. I have to say I am really happy I had a box of tissues nearby because I cried a lot during this book! Happy and sad tears but Tijan seriously wrings all the emotion she can out of you! This book really showed the evolution of the characters and how much they have changed over the years. It solidified relationships and really examined how each character related to the others. How important Mason and Sam are to everyone they know. To me these are real people because that's how Tijan makes them. These people with flaws and emotions that are so amazingly real for what they go through. I have never known an author that makes me so invested in a book and I read a ton. 300 books or more a year. Sometimes 3 of the series in a day if I start early enough and food is already made, lol. Nothing compares to Tijan in all the years I have been reading and I know nothing ever will. I can't wait for a new book and reread them all so many times. This series is actually the hardest for me to reread and I now realize it's because I love these characters so much and they go through so much that it's hard to emotionally go there. I've never had that happen. To be so emotionally torn apart by amazing characters that it's hard for me to read. That's why I will read anything she ever writes and love every minute of it. Thank you for always keeping us invested and don't ever stop. Please never, ever stop writing. I need you in my life! New characters are always welcome!!! Thank you for giving these characters the ending the deserve!
