To say I loved this book would be an understatement!  What a fantastic end to a series I adore!  Reid's story has been one I have wanted since he was introduced as Harper's brother in book 1.  Scarlett Cole does not disappoint with this one.  I absolutely loved getting to know what kind of man Reid was and although I was prepared to hate him for what he did to his sister I ended up in love with him! He was sexy, sweet and a stand up guy who had legit reasons behind his decisions.  Lia is sassy, sexy and confident and I loved her sense of style.  It was a breath of fresh air to read a heroine like her who was comfortable in her own skin.  Together Lia and Reid have major chemistry and this book is HOT, probably her hottest, sexiest yet, I couldn't get enough!  As with all Ms. Coles books you get suspense, drama, romance and plenty of sexy times!  The way Scarlett Cole writes makes you fall in love with the characters, want to enter their world and never want the book to end!
5 Amazingly Fantastic Stars!!!

You've got to be kidding me.. How could I NOT leave a review!! Brilliant! Incredible! Takes your breath away!! I was in a ball of emotions, through this Blow-Your-Mind Journey. Tarryn Fisher's writing is perfection. One minute, I'm screaming, crying, smiling, and cheering. Every page is a surprise.. and before you know it, it has ended. Even after reading this story it will not ever leave you, your heart, mind and soul. Every individual that crosses the pages will have such an impact on you.
Why on earth are you contemplating whether or not to read this???
This "Opportunity" cannot pass you by!!! You will Regret it!!

Oh my god What just happened!!! I mean What just happened.
 Ill tell you what happened.
 I just got blown away by this book!!! This book had me at the very first paragraph! Once I started. I just couldn't stop!!!

This book was beyond amazing!  I have seen people on Goodreads give it DNF's and 1 star reviews and I am wondering if they have read the same book?  The only two issues I had were 1. no one goes pee in this book! 2. Alex doesn't have a period lol but all the other girls do.  Now one of these #2 can be explained away as when a girl does a lot of high activity there is a chance that she won't get one.  So that said the only issue was the peeing lol.

Ok so this book was just wonderful.  I wasn't sure if I was going to like it because of the breeding houses but it really ended up being a great book!  I wish The Prophecy by Ellen Oh would have been this great.  That one I didn't connect with the characters at all and in Defy that just wasn't the case.  From the first page I felt for Alexa and her brother.  For what they had lost and the years that she had to pretend to be a boy.  I think fans of Once, Eon, and the like will love this book.  Now for those who hate love triangles I am normally one of them to.  Don't let this book slip through your fingers!  Because the love triangle was done wonderfully!

Now also this book is set up as a duology (next book due out 2015 ugh!!) But, it also sits fine as a stand alone.  It is all wrapped up at the end so I can't wait for the next one to see what the author does.  This was an uplift book that will make you want to fight for injustice!

WOW WOW and WOW!!!! I don't even know where to begin. This was for sure one of the best books I have read, and I read alot! The author did and AMAZING job with Living Again. From the first page you are pulled right in. Kayley's heartache and pain is unimaginable, and then walks in Ben. Sweet, wonderful, amazing Ben. Lord where are the Ben's in this world???? He will always be in the top five BBF list now! I hate when a book is spoiled for me so I won't go into details, but PLEASE read this book. You will be sorry if you don't!

5+ STARS!!!!

This is a type of book that I would usually stray from as I have not been a PNR fan in the past, BUT I will not be saying that anymore.

I absolutely LOVED this book!!!  This is the kind of book that you randomly find that totally surprised you (read it in one sitting!).  From the first page, the story captured my heart until the last page where I could not wipe the tears away fast enough.  What an amazing and emotional ride.  It gave me all the feels and I still wanted more.  This book will always have a place close to my heart.
HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT!!!!

Seriously, after reading this book I was absolutely stunned. It was amazing from start, to middle, to finish (can't wait for the second book,) I'm Completely in love with it. I purchased the kindle version here on amazon, but am planning on ordering the paperback version, the second I have money. Books like this, that at the memory of a sentence, or scene causes you to break out into a grin, are my absolute favorites. AMAZING READ, so what are you waiting for? GET IT!!!

So in other words, READ this book! You will not be disappointed. This book is one of my all time favorites and I'm sure it will be for you as well. Happy reading!

I do not want to give anything away, but I will say DAMN THAT BOOK WAS AWESOME!!! Now to try and sit patiently for the next book to come out! I highly recommend this series to everyone!!!!!!

This book is freaking AMAZING!!! I seriously NEED book #2 STAT! You can practically feel the chemistry jump off the pages between the two main characters as the feelings are so intense!! I love me some forbidden love, and this book certainly did not disappoint!!

Seriously, if any of you happen to read about any negative comments regarding this book, do yourself a HUGE favor and do not allow those opinions to sway you from reading this book. Be sure to form your own opinion, & determine how you feel for yourself because I guarantee you will only miss out on an incredible story If choose not to read. I literally could not put it down. Happy reading!! Enjoy!

My Review:

Holy cow! I could not put this book down! I kept hearing great things about this book so I decided that I would read it between the other books that I was reading this weekend. And Im glad I did! This book was flipping amazing!!!
The book starts out with Naomi in the Fairfax Mental Health Institute and she has been committed involuntarily.

She refuses to share her story, but she wants to get better for Lachlan. He is frustrated with her because he wants her to work harder that shes working. Eventually she decides to open up with a new therapist about why she was hospitalized and it was a riveting story about how she learned to survive!

So at about 10% into the book I realized for the most part what was going on. However, there was some if it that I was having problems guessing! And I love it when I cannot guess where a book is going.. LOVE IT!!

SPOILERS!!!! DO NOT READ FURTHER IF YOU HAVE NOT READ THIS BOOK!!!!!

Mind boggling! I recently posted on Facebook that I want an author to do research when it comes to mental disorders since Im well versed in them! Ha. a few days later I read this book! This is prime example of what Im talking about! Never have I read about Dissociative Identify Disorder (DID) (which is the new term for Multiple Personality Disorder)!!!!

At about 10% I figured out what was going on. I knew it was DID or schizophrenia. As the book got a little further I knew for sure it was DID! I was blown away! This author did PHENOMINAL research! This is exactly what you would expect to see. I was a little confused about Max/Lachlan. But I started questioning whether the two were the same or not and yup! They are! The phrases were very similar!

And the Dad who tried to fake that nothing happened! Ugh!!!!! Sleezeball!!!

No wonder she created Lana! Lana was the split that protected Naomi from the trauma she was going through. She was the one who protected Naomi. She was the one who didn't want to see Dad. She was the one who held all the pain inside. She was the one who was crumbling. She was the one who suffered not Naomi! The mind is a phenomenal thing. The way it protects itself!

This was an extremely well written book that will stay with me!!!! The only thing I did not like was how fast the book wrapped up! I would have wanted to see it play out longer. I would have also had like to have seen Max/Lachlan get his business back. I would have liked a better conclusion. But the rest of the book was perfect!

Calia Read is an amazing writer who was able to take two unthinkable topics and write a riveting story out of it. It had me hooked from the very beginning and refused to let me go!

Rating: 5 stars for 90% of the book. 4.5 for the ending.

This book came highly recommended to me by a fellow book friend, whom I trust, so I dove right in with little to no idea what it was really about!  Even the book blurb would not prepare me for what I was about to read.  Let me just tell you that this books topic, while a sensitive issue for most, was written in such a way that it gives light to a whole new perspective and made me appreciate things I might not have prior to reading it.

That being said it was also an amazing love story and I fell completely in love with both our Hero and Heroine!!!!

Keller Bishop, the poor guy, I mean really! Talk about guilt for a stupid teenage mistake completely consuming your world!!!  No one in their wildest dreams would have ever dreamt that something so d*** unthinkable could have ever happened because of a stupid teenage mistake!  The very concept broke my heart and made me love him immediately!  To have that much love in your heart to feel that loss the way he did, you just knew there was an honorable man beneath his faade!

Britton Reeves should be an inspiration to us all!  To have survived everyones worst fear and have any semblance of life afterwards, she was just amazing! I loved the way she remained strong even though she lost so much of herself.  I loved how she didn't crave the sympathy and instead demanded her independence even though it was so difficult for her!  The way she takes what she needs from Keller and doesnt give him a choice, EPIC!!!!  I fan-girled over her so hard!

When these two finally come together, pray for your reading device because it might very well catch fire!!!!  The hotness, the rage, the love, the pure human emotions to have found someone that really sees you but doesnt judge, it was just incredible!

This is my first Heather Leigh book, but talk about breaking in a new fan lol I just know that from here on out I will gobble up anything else she writes!!!!

5 STARS!!!

Remembering Joy was SUCH a pleasant surprise!!! Id had this book on my kindle forever and I finally had time to read it. IF YOUVE DONE THIS TOO  SERIOUSLY, READ THIS BOOK!!! I kicked myself for waiting so long and I HATE when I do this!

I absolutely love smart angst. Did you hear me? SMART angst. This book gave me a stomach ache in the best way. I couldn't stop flipping to the next page to see what would happen next. I know that sounds weird, but I seriously could not put it down because there was just so much going on. Jenni did such a great job at keeping the story interesting and fast paced.

Highly, highly recommend this book. I cannot wait to start the next book!

TWO THINGS.

Firstly

THIS IS DEFINITELY WORTH MORE THAN 5 STARS! No amount of stars or ratings can do HIS Choice justice!

The plot and characters are very well-developed, the pace is steady and those few twists at the end makes this one of the best read I ever had!

SecondlyI. AM. IN. LOVE. WITH. THE. HAMILTON. BROTHERS.

See, I haven't read HIS Desire, the first H.I.S. novel, yet I am already in love with Jesse and Kate! Not to mention the rest of the Hamilton brothers!

Exactly how did this happen my fellow bookies?

SHEILA KELL HAPPENED.

Although AJ and Megan are the main characters, Sheila Kell managed to bring the other characters to life even if they just appeared nearing to the end of the novel!

ONE WORD. AMAZING.

Now, let me introduce AJ and Megan.

AJ Hamilton is this smoking hot man and practically oozing-with-sexiness everywhere on his body (or maybe god sounds better?) and Megan Rogers is this feisty woman who knows no bounds of danger when she has her head zeroed in on something and give it all her best to accomplish it!

Their first encounter is actually pretty unique and WAY. TOO. HOT.

Lets not forget how interesting it was!

The interaction between Megan and AJ is simply too humorous! Megan is not just your typical feisty heroine, but quite a hot-headed and determined one! She definitely puts AJ in lineor probably gives him loads of trouble when he is trying to keep her safe!

Despite all these, they are attracted to each other and can I just say how much my heart cried for them?! Especially nearing the last quarter of this novel?

(I think the words I am looking for are painful and heart-wrenching?!)

Another interesting thing is thatONE OF THE MOST UNEXPECTED PERSON ACTUALLY IS THE MAGICIAN THAT IS TRYING TO KILL MEGAN AND AJ?

(Honestly, I thought it was another person because it was so suspicious!)

Highly recommended for all readers to read this and if possible, read HIS Desire first otherwise youll be just like me, totally regretting not reading the first BECAUSE THE H.I.S. SERIES IS JUST TOO GOOD!

*Thank you to the author for providing me with an eARC in exchange for a honest review.
