5/5 STARS PEOPLE!!!! THIS BOOK IS BAT SHIT CRAZY FUNNY!
I missed all the characters especially the now, Uncle Drew. A new character who is Tyler, Gavin's BFF is most definitely a wonderful addition to the crew. All funny with no filter just like the rest of them! :)
Seriously RECOMMEND this book if you are looking for the funnies and the feels
one of my favourite scenes from the book asides the the Tyler and Siri conversations.. (click spoiler link)
...can we please change the subject? I really don't like discussing my Bronie status with someone who doesn't live the lifestyle" Tyler complains"Did you just say Bronie? What the fuck is that? Is it some sort of club or something?""Not that you care, but yes. Bronies are a select group of men who appreciate the beauty and personalities of My Little Ponies" Tyler explains "And by appreciate you mean jerk off to" I say with a laugh"IT'S NOT LIKE THAT!" p.s: even funnier, BRONIES are real! hahahahaha!
I dont get this. Out of all the relevant characters that are still unpaired/mated she writes about these new characters.
:(
It just keeps getting better and better.
Shona and Owen's tale is sooo delightfully cute filled with beauty of flowers, hedgies and gnome friends
I totally enjoyed this one.
Oh yes, boys and girls! The third book in the Marked Men series is out! And I must say Jay Crownover as always, did NOT disappoint! I absolutely adored Cora and Rome's story! The ups and downs that Rome goes through to find a way back to fit into civilian life and his family life. Still trying to figure out what role he is to play in everyone's lives. All these years he's been in the war while the loved ones he left behind have moved on and no longer seem to rely on him anymore. Also trying to figure out how to get over things eating him up inside, his brother's death, his PTSD and nightmares haunting him. He stumbles upon a bar owned by ex soldier Brite who eventually takes Rome under his wing and tries to help him through all the troubles of trying to fit in to civilian life. Rome is then pulled into a romance with Cora, Marked's shop manager.
Cora has been hurt once by her ex-fiance who she thought was her one and only. Only to find out he was just a cheating slime ball. She is damaged and cautious to giving her heart out to someone who isn't her exact description of Mr. Perfect. But she ends up attacted and pulled towards Rome Archer, just something about him draws her to him. These two go through a wonderful journey at finding love, acceptance and peace in their lives. This book will absolutely not disappoint. If you've read the last two books Rule and Jet you will most definitely enjoy this one ;)

p.s:
The epilogue drops a total bomb on what we are going to find out next in the Marked Men series which will be tackling Nate's story.
I will end this with a few of the wonderful quotes I got out of this book:
“Relationships are not tailor-made and people are flawed. You have to work around that and love the other person anyway. Out flaws are what make us unique, and while Rule might not be perfect, he is absolutely perfect for me.” -Shaw “I was tired of trying to guess what others' expectations of me were and had to get my head around the idea that my expectations of myself were enough” -Rome “Some of us found it in the love of a good woman and making a family, others, like Brite, found what was next by helping the most lost of us onto a better path. Whatever your next is kid, it'll find you or you'll find it. Don't beat yourself up about it.” -Torch “He always tells me I color his entire world, but he did the same thing for me. If what I felt for Jimmy is beige, then what I feel for Rome is a damn box of Crayola crayons.” - Cora “Someone had to set you right. I knew I could do it. Love is never perfect, big brother. It's what you make of the imperfections in it that makes the ride worthwhile.” - Remy

What killed this book for me was literally how the story was ended..
there were so many cliff hangers in my opinion so unless this actually has a sequel I wouldn't even bother to recommend it.
Been a while since I wasn't able to fully finish a book. This one takes the cake in that this year I guess.
Character personality in the book was on and off especially when it came to the MMC.
The dialogue itself didn't seem natural.. I swear, if I had to read another “queen” line again I'd just chuck my Kindle into the trash bin.
2.5 Stars
hmmm.. I was really looking forward to this book but I was a bit disappointed.
Seriously what happened to Woods and Della?? I found pretty needy, clingy and annoying at times. hmmph. :( Oh well, I still love the gang of Rosemary :) can't wait for the next stories hopefuly Harlow and Grant get a book! :D
Josie Dean has suffered enough. She has been abandoned by her husband Shane Dean. Even though their romance was a fast and life altering event, for her, he probably thought otherwise. Because after their most passionate night in their marriage she awoke to find that her husband was gone.
It's been two years since she's heard from Shane. Called on by Detective Malloy to verify the identity of patient in the hospital found beaten and battered Josie suddenly finds herself in front of the one person she thought she'd never see again. Shane. But now, he is a different person. He's got amnesia.
Although he can't remember anything that happened from the last two years Shane still knows in his heart that he most definitely loved Josie. Reason why he left? He still can't figure it out. He also can't figure out why he has heightened senses and abilities he can't explain like major ass kicking skills and computer wiz abilities. Still, he knows one thing. He is not letting go of Josie again.
People are after Shane and his brothers. The same people who created them. This is their first journey into redemption for what was done to them as children. He and his brothers are out for blood. Who's? The Commander's. He is the man who trained them since “birth” to be ultimate killing machines.
But his first priority is to keep Josie safe. She isn't making it easy but they will both have to see if this time their love is enough to keep them together.
Okay, this book is filled with action packed scenes. But, yeah, I felt really bad for Josie at one end of the story. I mean seriously? How many times can one person be abducted in a day? This girl has BALLS! and I mean it. She may be dainty and “soft” but she can sure protect herself. Shane and his brothers, are the cliche alpha male pack. They protect what is theirs. And now since Shane decides that there is NO way that he is letting Josie go a second time the three brothers are there to protect her. Although, in the end Josie I guess is the one who ends up protecting them. :)
I'm giving this 4 stars because of her experience with Landon.. so epic. I almost cried.
LOVED IT. 5/5 STARS!
“Most importantly - what I would stress the very most - is that love doesn't solve a goddamn thing. Love doesn't erase a broken heart, and it sure as fuck doesn't change people. But no matter how old, how flimsy, how frayed the rope of love is, it does keep you tethered to the people you love. And I was forever tied to Cage “
In this book we follow the unrequited love story of Tegan and Cage. Tegan is now all grown up and moved to San Francisco living her life as a tatted up,loud mouth, hot tempered and pierced hippie and still trying to forget about her long lost love that is Cage West, prince of Hells Horsemen. Cage is still stuck in Montana livin' the man whore biker life, hanging at the club, drinking and sexing it up with all the club whores around. But when Tegan comes back to Montana to deal with her mother being shot by one of the Hells Horsemen's crazy wives, the two end up clashing in a all out verbal, physical and emotional brawl. The book tells their story on how they find they bearings and deal with all the drama that comes with the Hells Horsemen's lives as well as coming to terms with their past mistakes cough Cage cough and moving on with their possible future.
Another wonderful story that you will encounter which I actually preferred is the story of Ellie and Horseman Dirty/Michael.
This book is just awesome!
Also, the way it's written? It's just asking for a movie adaptation. (haha)
It most definitely has to be listed in one the MUST READS lists.

I really wanted to like this book, and at times I did. But I found it to be very dragging.
It's a very quick read. I absolutely adored Jase and Chris, Jackson's two sons. As well as the Alexander family, they reminded me of the Chase series books.
The books follows Ridley, who is the shy good hearted girl next door type as compared to her traveling supermodel twin Raina. Ridley, is trying to escape something that is haunting her back in Florida she ends up at her sister's doorstep in Virginia but finds out that her sister is at a photo shoot in Singapore. She then falls into the arms of next door hunky music producer neighbor Jackson Alexander,who has just lost his wife to a terrible accident and is now a single father raising two boys. The story follows their instant chemistry and their journey to gaining both their trusts and surviving whatever is haunting Ridley.
I really really really wanted to enjoy this book. Sad to say it just wasn't for me. I'm moving on to the next book hopefully it'll be a better experience. :)
10/5 MAGNIFICENT STARS!
“It's not fair!” (Ryssa)Because life was ever about fairness.Oh, to be as naive as his sister.”
Ever since the Dark-Hunter series has started when we learn of Acheron readers learn to hate his twin brother, his supposed spoiled abusive and back stabbing brother, Styxx.
In this book we learn that all is not as it seems. Styxx is as much a victim as Acheron is, I would say even more. He is cast out by his family and the kingdom that he is set to rule one day. He is abused by the Atlantean gods and one greek god. He is the humble brother who has been mistaken for a prideful, and undeserving leader, heir and brother.
After you read this book, I assure you, you will no longer hate him. In fact I am most definitely sure you will end up loving him more than Acheron.
This book also tells a tale of a love that was can never be broken. A love so strong that, even after years, centuries and life times of being apart they truly were meant to be. At long last Aricles is reunited with his love Bet'anya Agriosa.
PS : I really hope Ms. Kenyon releases a story for Urian or for Remi. I can't wait for those :)
ARC copy given for an honest review.
Audra has been gone for 25 days. Vane has been pushed even more by his now Guardians, those who have taken Audra's place. Each day Vane waits for her return. At night, he is haunted by nightmares, visions, dreams of his loved ones suffering, everything that is important to him is taken. And only one person is responsible for such images. Raiden. There is a war brewing. A massive storm is coming. No can stop it. All they have to do is prepare, to fight to survive. Will the power of four winds be enough? Will Vane and Audra's bond be strong enough in this storm?
This book absolutely blew my mind. The action in it is wonderful, Audra and Vane's relationship and journey gets even more deeper than it was in the first book. We meet new characters like Gus who are absolutely loyal to their future King and straight minded. Then there is Os, the guardian leader, who I am still trying to figure whether he can be trusted or not. Same with the reappearance of Audra's mother, Arella. She says she regrets everything she's done, she blames her gift but seriously? Too much has happened for her to be given absolution. Ofcourse, there is Raiden, the crazed dark leader of the Stormers. He is hell bent on finding a new to take over the groundlings and other windwalkers..
The romance of the story wasn't that great but the action and suspense with the story was really entertaining. I loved the character of Rowdy! :) I hope he gets his own story. :D
