School Pride has wrapped up, nothing left for the cast to do but some promotional events and interviews, and of course, the premiere. So Emma Pierce, soon to be star, has been back home, trying her hardest to live that "normal" life that seems so appealing and yet elusive. At the urging of her bff Emily, she's even dating a regular boy, albeit somewhat unenthusiastically, and trying to put the emotional uproar of the past few months behind her.

So Emma Pierce, soon to be star, has been back home, trying her hardest to live that "normal" life that seems so appealing and yet elusive. At the urging of her bff Emily, she's even dating a regular boy, albeit somewhat unenthusiastically, and trying to put the emotional uproar of the past few months behind her. And then she meets Graham Douglas again ...

This sequel to Between the Lines picks up where that one ended, the morning after Emma and Graham's chance encounter at the coffee shop. As they come to recognize and acknowledge the depth and intensity of their feelings for each other, they have to deal with the obstacles of a long distance relationship, their own somewhat reticent natures and history, and, more dramatically, the attention and nefarious intentions of Brooke and Reid, who aren't finished with them yet. Brooke's plan to nab Graham for herself, with the assistance of Reid, who she enlists in her scheme with the promise that he can pick up the pieces of Emma when she prevails, is the main story line, and it is one that will keep you reading, biting your nails, and cursing that bitchy, brittle and broken Brooke, well beyond the time you promised you'd turn out the lights, stop reading and try to get some sleep before work in the am. Good luck with that, my friend, it won't be easy!

This one is told in four shifting POV's - Emma, Graham, Brooke and Reid. This is a relief, after the opacity of Graham's thought processes in BTL. It retains the closeness we feel to Emma and Graham, and continues to hold out the tantalizing possiblity that there's more to Reid than he lets on. Brooke's point of view, while revealing the world of hurt she's coming from, doesn't (for me at least) make her a whole lot more sympathetic or relatable. Maybe the subtitle of this should be "Hoping for Brooke's Comeuppance," because I spent a good part of the book wishing for that! But, back to POV's. While the first book felt to me like it was Emma's story, this one feels like it's Graham's turn. We come to understand the basis for his hands-off, non-possessive attitude (whether we like it or not, or feel like yelling "Use your powers, Superman!," as he hurtles ever closer to the ground). And learning his history and spending more time with Cara and his family is really enjoyable, too.

The story of this one is fun, despite the almost overwhelming tension created by the machinations of the two antagonists, but again for me, there's an elusive something beyond the plot, characters and setting that makes these books special. Tammara's writing is seductive and immersive - you're reading along in the regular way, and suddenly realize that you've been drawn into her world so deeply that hours have passed, you're hungry, and that bathroom break you've been postponing is long overdue, and still you don't want to stop! It's a kind of dreamy but vivid style that I wish I were astute enough to analyze, but prefer to just enjoy.

There are three teaser chapters for the next book, Good For You, included, and they promise a different direction, focusing on Reid this time, as he meets someone different than the actresses and society girls he usually hangs with. The suggestion of sparks between them makes me look forward to this one, as much as I anticipated Where You Are.

So, just to be perfectly clear, I loved this book, the characters, the story, the writing and look forward to enjoy Tammara's exploration of this lovingly and richly imagined foursome. Could there be someone who can heal Brooke's hurts? Or is she so bereft of the capacity for real love that she'll have to just make her own way in the world, without the tender touch of Tammara's obvious affection for her little cast? Time will tell, but I, for one, would love to read about it!

I love how she can go from something completely heartbreaking and angst filled with Easy, and then turn around and give us sweet and happy and fluff. The Between the Lines series is just that, pure fluff and I love it.

In the first book we are introduced to the main players: Reid, Emma, Graham, and Brooke. All four come together while filming a movie. Reid is Hollywoods It boy, Emma is the newcomer, Graham is the indie actor, and Brooke is the, well, the stuck-up Hollywood starlet who went from star to sidekick.

In Where You Are, Graham and Emma are working at keeping their relationship alive (and secret) from the public. The problem? Brooke has suddenly decided that Graham, her longtime bestfriend would be perfect for her. She enlists the help of Reid to break the two of them up, playing on Reid's inability to say no to rejection.

Graham and Emma's relationship is sweet, like toothache sweet. Towards the beginning, it was a little too much. I was like, no one is this perfect. But towards the end when all the drama was unleashed, I came to really love their relationship with each other.

Reid still remains my favorite character in the series. He's such an ass, but I love him. Reading his POV is hilarious. Also, I think he may be the character with the most depth. Weird, I know. But he's the only character who really goes through changes and grows as each book progresses. I feel so bad for him and just want him to have someone who can see what a great guy he is underneath the exterior.

Brooke needs to take a long walk off a short pier. I feel no sympathy for her. She's conniving liar who throws a fit when things don't go her way. I'm sorry Princess, but you can't just wake up and decide someone is perfect for you AFTER you see that person happy with someone else. She uses everyone around her. No wonder she has no real friends, she's completely fake with everyone. It's going to take something major happening for her to ever be in my good graces.

This series is the perfect read if you just want something fun. I cannot wait to read the third one!

Graham was beyond amazing! I loved him and Emma! <3 Their relationship had me hooked and whipped like a little girl since the ending from Between the Lines. Talk about true chemistry, not some School Pride invention. His love for Emma is swoon-worthy and his intense feelings are gut-wrenching. I absolutely adore this character.

Emma somehow evolved as a character and I couldn't help but feel sorry for what she had to go through, because she's basically a very good person. Her insecureness was expected and made a very good number of confusing her: Graham, the boy that seems too perfect for her, or Reid, the walking one night-stand from Hollywood? Don't panick now; this question will be answered nice and slowly, with the help of some long unsuccessful scheming (Hell yeah!!! Buuu, Brooke!)

Now Reid is definitely my problem. I'm conflicted and torn between giving him the silence treatment for agreeing to the whole plotting thing with Brooke or another chance after everything he's been through. I have to admit, at nineteen years old, he's just messed up. Very messed up. After his family relationship, after his break up with Brooke (btw, I blame Brooke for that conclusion and she's officially the Bitch Queen in town) and after everything else that add up. But I know there are better things in him. Hopefully, the third book from this series will wrap him in some pink joy aura too, 'cause he deserves it. Guess I'll have to wait and see...

Tammara did an excellent job with this sequel and she rocked my world with Graham. If you haven't checked out these books, go try them NOW! (less)

This book is WAY better then the first book Between The Lines, which was hard for me to read all the way through and was not into it. The only reason I decided to read the second book was because of how Graham and Emma ended and wanted to see where their relationship was now.

I loved how the book was written in 4 different characters POV and how you would be in a middle of a scene and start with one person's pov then end in another. I thought Emma...more

And alas, I was a little bit disappointed after reading it. Don’t get me wrong, I truly loved the first book…really really loved it. And I was really happy knowing that a second book would be out with Graham and Emma’s story (at last). So, here are the reasons why I didn’t find it phenomenal as the first one:

1. There were a lot of POVs going on, Graham/Emma/Reid/Brooke. But I guess the author has to do it since the story revolves around the four. But in my opinion 2 POVs would have to do (it’s just me).
2. The story was just so-so. It didn’t appeal to me. It was predictable. It just bored me a little.
3. The characters:

GRAHAM: Since book one I loved the guy. I was rooting for him to end up with Emma. And boy, I’m glad he did. Well, the bad boy always gets the girl in the stories right? So, I was happy that the underdog finally gets the girl. But in this book I kinda find Graham boring and a lil bit mushy. And another, he kinda acted a stupid in the story. Towards the end of the story I lost interest in him. I don’t know he wasn’t as exciting as I find him in the first book.
EMMA: Like Graham, she acted stupid in this one. A lot of times I want to smack her head and say: “Girl, use your brain damn it!” ‘Nuff said….
BROOKE: I love hating her in this one….she really is a good antagonist/villain/manipulator/bitch. I actually like how her character was written in this book.
REID: Well…I was shocked that I liked him more than Graham in this one. Yes, I know he’s the bad guy. But he redeemed himself towards the end. And hey, he was not into Brooke’s plan all the way.

So the conclusion, should you still read it or not? In fairness, I think you still have to. We’ve got different opinions on book anyway. I might hate it but others might like it or vice versa. But I was still hoping for a more climactic events happening here and I just didn’t find it. But will I still read the third book? Hell yeah! After all I liked Reid in this one and the third book is all about Reid….actually I thought he and Brooke would end up in this one. But I guess it didn’t happen as we see in the third book that he finds a new girl.

I fell in love with Graham in Between the Lines. He was hard not to love. I even liked the "bad boy" image of Reid even though he was so not right for Emma. She wasn't "the one" to make the "bad boy" come to heel. Where You Are wraps up the story between the Emma, Graham, Reid and Brooke. From the sneak peek you get of the next one in this series it looks like Reid is going to meet his match.

“We are not,” his voice is a gentle tremor, “breaking up.”

Where You Are picks up right where Between the Lines ended. I found this sequel to be much more edgier and focused than the last book. However, it still doesn't lose the feeling that not much ever happens. This time, we get Graham’s perspective. I really liked seeing his family. They’re quite a funny bunch. In a very short amount of time, we learn that Graham is devoted to Emma and he’s quite a simple guy. That kind of bugged me because I...more

I was definitely not happy to see Reid make a reappearance or Brooke for that matter. Lord help me those two are made for each other and need to leave Emma and Graham alone. Every single time one of them would showcase their POV I was ready to hurl. By the end of the book I was ready to b-slap them both because I was so over them.

Ok back to the beginning. Emma and Graham had just realized they both had feelings for each other when BETWEEN THE LINES ended. And boy I couldn't be happier. Together they will be happy...together they will make cute babies. Yeah, I know. These are fictional character we are talking about but I can dream right? And I know that all relationships are going to be put through the wringer before they can get their happily ever after. And these two are no different. In fact, I think they have it rougher than some other characters I have read about. They have a lot of obstacles in their way of that happily ever after. And the forces that are coming at them to break them up are a pair I hope I never cross paths with. Such evil intent.; such malicious ways.

Emotional drama plagues this book to the fullest. Oh.My.Gosh does it ever. The trouble and drama that Graham and Emma go through just proves that they are not meant for the limelight. They need to stick to the Indie flicks and stage shows if they are going to fall prey to every little rumor they hear or see. You'd think they would have gotten a clue from the very start of Brooke and Reid's devious plans. I mean, the plans are grade school at best. Very immature and hard to overlook. But I guess some people are more trusting and are easier to fool than others.

Not sure I will continue on with GOOD FOR YOU, only because it is Reid's story. I have never liked him and don't care to start anytime soon. Yeah I am sure he will redeem himself but I might have to wait for another day before I let it happen. But I do recommend this one only for the mere fact there is so much Graham and the story is so good. So please pick it up today. Enjoy!

Now, I think I'm starting to understand why the writer made that decision. Because, now, I absolutely love Reid.

True, he and this Brooke character were the villains in this story. And I hated them, truly. But I also sympathized with them. They're both selfish, but this selfishness comes from a desperation to genuinely be loved especially in an industry where only appearances matter. With the flashbacks, I saw how both of them got corrupted as they grew up in the business and it made me understand their motivations a bit more. So even if I was always on the edge wondering if their ploys would finally break Emma and Graham apart, it was a pleasant tension in the story. And Reid, oh my god, I've started to love him. He's on his way to being the romantic hero. He was a total ass in the first book and his vulnerability was there but insufficient to make me like him, but in this... he total does the ultimate sacrifice. And I think, I think that was the moment where I understood that this whole series is actually his story, his journey from (as the existentialists would say) the inauthenticity of celebrity-dom to authenticity of human-hood where he genuinely cares and will finally be able to truly love someone.

And now it's suddenly so clear why it was he and Emma were the leads of the first book. Because it's his journey, and she was the one who got away. That last scene in this book? That, I think, was the most tragically beautiful scene throughout the book. That's the tragedy of Reid's character, and that's why I want to read the last book even if Emma and Graham won't be there anymore (they were my primary reason for reading book two).

PS. Emma and Graham are good together, but I think it's really Brooke and Reid's ploy that seals this in 4-star-shelf. (less)

To be honest, the plot didn't really appeal to me. I'm not a girl that goes for the twisted, manipulating revenge kind of story. In the end, this book was about what I thought it would be. I loved the parts that dealt with Graham and Emma and loathed the parts that were about Brooke and Reid.

This is written from four different points of view. Brooke, Emma, Graham, and Reid all get to tell their own story. It did feel a little bogged down at times, but it wasn't too bad. I think all sides were necessary to know everything going on, even if Reid and Brooke's views got a little repetitive and overworked at times.

Graham and Emma are perfectly sweet. They're a wonderfully written couple in the early stages of a relationship. There's a little bit of confusion rolled around with a lot of happiness. If the story has simply been about them, I think I would have enjoyed it more. A book about trying to find their footing in a new romance while one starts college and one finishes and enters the next stage of life, not to mention Graham's daughter, would have been a syrupy sweet read.

The problem comes in with Reid and Brooke and their "plan" to win back the relationships they never had. Brooke starts everything, coming to Reid with a plan to help him get Emma back. From there it just spirals. It felt too childish for me to actually enjoy. It took away from what could have been a good story.

There's not a lot of secondary character action. Emily shows up occasionally, but there wasn't enough to make up for Reid and Brooke. They were extremely secondary and I wished there could have been more.

Overall, Where You Are was a bit of a let-down from Between the Lines, even if I was kind of expecting it, based on the novel description. I'm glad I got to read a little bit more of Graham and Emma, but I could have done without the backstabbing pettiness of Reid and Brooke. Unfortunately, I think this is where I'll bow out from the series. Emma and Graham were the people keeping me reading, and even with Reid's slight redemption at the end, it's not enough to keep me reading this series. I'm not ready to give up on Webber, though, so I will give her other book, Easy a try.(less)

Me pasa algo extraño con Brooke, no hay forma de que logre identificarme con ella o de tenerle algún cariño, simplemente no la soporto. A pesar de saber que tuvo un pasado difícil con su familia siendo un desastre y todo, su actitud de perra me sobrepasa.
A Graham lo adoré. Desde el principio, hasta el final. Es el hombre más dulce. Me encanta su relación con su hijita y cómo está dispuesto a lo que sea por Emma.
Con Reid creó que logré conectar, más en este libro que en el anterior. Porque parece por fin haber madurado un poco. Y sus sentimientos por Emma son puros.
Lo único que me impidió darle las 5 estrellas fue que sentí que todo era demasiado obvio y que los personajes fueron muy ingenuos hasta el final. Muchas veces me gusta tener más información que los personajes, pero con este libro sentí que sabía demasiado.
Fuera de eso, el libro es excelente y se lo recomendaría a cualquiera que estuviera buscando una buena novela de amor que se lee rápido y que te atrapa desde el primer momento.

Another book you can't put down. I loved that in this sequel we can see through Graham's and Brooke's eyes too. Especially Graham's.
I have this strange feeling about Brooke, there's no way that I can relate with her or feel any endearment for her, I just can't stand her. Even if she had a rough past with her family being a disaster and everything, her bitchy attitude is too much.
I loved Graham. From the beginning to the end. He's the sweetest man. I love his relationship with his little daughter and how he's willing to do whatever it takes for Emma.
With Reid, I think I could connect more in this book than in the first one. Because it seems that he's finally growing up. And his feelings for Emma are pure.
The only thing that kept me from giving it the 5 stars, it's that I felt like everything was really obvious and the character were too naive until the very end. Most of the time I like have more information than the characters have, but with this book I felt like I knew too much.
Other than that, the book is excellent and I would recommend it to anyone who's looking for a good love story that you can read really fast and which can trap you from the first moment.(less)

The whole draw to this book for me was finally reading Grahams POV and from the first page we get it. I fell in love with him from the first book and was ready to dive into his view of things. He is an intense character who is the alpha male but holds that side of him in check less he be chastised by the women; sisters/mother in his life. He is old school romantic and the type of guy I absolutely love to read.

Emma is interesting in this book and I still like her even though there were many time...more

WHERE YOU ARE is #2 in the Between the Lines trilogy, picking up the story where it left off after School Pride finished filming and following the main characters - Emma, Reid, Graham, and Brooke - through to the Premiere.

I definitely had more problems with #2 than with #1. I didn't think that the addition of Graham and Brooke's viewpoints added a whole lot - Brooke, especially, since I suspect that her POV was meant to humanize her, and it completely failed at that for me.

I definitely had more problems with #2 than with #1. I didn't think that the addition of Graham and Brooke's viewpoints added a whole lot - Brooke, especially, since I suspect that her POV was meant to humanize her, and it completely failed at that for me. The story here is also a lot less focused. In #1, all the characters were together on set, filming a movie. Now they're scattered across the country, joining up for brief stints at photo shoots and interviews. Setting aside, the plot is pretty strictly defined: Brooke contacts Reid and convinces him to help her break up Emma and Graham. She convinces Reid that if he plays along, he'll be perfectly positioned to snag Emma after Brooke seduces Graham.

There are a lot of things about the way Webber writes this that are really great. The way that Reid slowly warms toward Emma, developing a real friendship with her by the end, is really well done. Emma and Graham's long-distance relationship is wonderfully romantic, but damaged by problems that wouldn't cause a ripple if they were together in one place. Emma and Graham are both really good, trustworthy people and watching Reid and Brooke chip away at the sweet, solid connection they've got is heartbreaking.

Graham is really the weak spot in the book. I mean, Brooke as a conniving bitch - okay, whatever. But Graham is a solid character who behaves in odd ways that according to the needs of the plot, rather than his own nature. For example: he sees Brooke really clearly. He knows what kind of person she is, he can tell when she's being fake and manipulative, but he befriends her anyhow. And I liked him for that; it's one of his sterling qualities. Yet, for some reason, even though he's perceptive about everything else, he's never suspicious about any of the dumb tricks that Brooke pulls to separate him from Emma. There are a few other things with Graham; I didn't get why he was so adamant about not having sex, for example; it only made sense as a plot device, keeping the reader panting along to see when/if it would happen.

Other than that, though, I'm still pretty clueless about where this series is going to end up. I'm tempted to look at a few reviews of #3, just so I can get a hint - I mean, I have NO IDEA. That's kind of exciting.

Graham Douglas doesn't do romantic relationships, but he was knocked for a loop when he met Emma Pierce on the set of his last film. As they grew closer, he did everything in his power to keep from falling for a girl being pursued by superstar Reid Alexander. Now home in New York, his life is once again under control, until Emma appears and shows him how not over her he is.

Emma Pierce is forsaking an up-and-coming Hollywood career to embark on a life she's only dreamed of--the life of a regular...more

The Setting: Another unique setting. I know just as much about the promoting of a blockbuster movie as I do about the making of it, so the setting was fun and different. I like a unique setting for my novels now and again.

The Characters: It was nice to have Graham's and Brooke's perspectives on this go around. I love Graham just as much, if not more, having seen inside his mind a little. Brooke was just turning into a nice character at the end of Between the Lines, but I didn't have that much in...more

Where You Are starts off right where Between the Lines ends and let me tell you it's an emotional ride from there. In the end I was left wanting more Emma and Graham moments, yes i'm a little greedy sometimes.

Reid, well let's just say that bad boy sure has a long road ahead of him. I tried so hard to hate him, he's a manipulative, stuck up rich kid that's been catered to his whole life and does not think twice about making trouble for his 'friends.' In the end I felt sorry for Reid. His father a...more

The book centers around four characters, Emma, Graham, Reid, and Brooke. Graham and Emma finally got together at the end of the last book, but now they have to do it long distance. Emma in California while Graham in New York. This is where insecurities set in and the need for trusting each other should kick in. Reid is still sour over the rejection from Emma while Brooke will do anything (this is where the scheming part of the book starts) to get Graham to herself.

Graham and Emma finally got together at the end of the last book, but now they have to do it long distance. Emma in California while Graham in New York. This is where insecurities set in and the need for trusting each other should kick in. Reid is still sour over the rejection from Emma while Brooke will do anything (this is where the scheming part of the book starts) to get Graham to herself.

I loved the moments of Graham and Emma, they had to skype a lot and their insecurities and jealousy over the cutest things were adorable. I especially loved Graham’s internal struggle with himself regarding his increased jealousy and over protectiveness of Emma. Since he was a kid, his sisters and mom would constantly remind him that a real man should not get jealous or proclaim ownership over his woman; that just makes him a man not worthy of her (they’re total feminists).

Now on to Reid and Brooke, they both want people they can’t have and that results in them teaming up (surprise!) and forming a plan to break up Graham and Emma. Nicole has no heart. There I said it. She is selfish and disregards anyone who wouldn’t be a help to her. I hoped that at some point I would see a glimpse of her heart but that never came. However Reid redeemed himself towards the end for me so I was left out with only one character to hate. She tried too hard and was too clingy, Graham was too oblivious to her.

So many misunderstandings occurred because of Nicole but every time Graham dealt with it head on and without any of the whole “it wasn’t meant to be, it shouldn’t be this difficult” crap some books come up with. Sometimes I would be yelling “Tell her! Explain now, don’t let her leave!” but I'm glad there were no screaming outbursts during my reading of this book.

The book was full of scheming, jealousy, insecurity, and holding on to the love that you have already found. If you haven’t read the first book then I advise you to read it immediately!(less)

Loved, loved, loved the second book! It was even better than the first! I won't lie, I was more of a fan of Graham than Reid. Although after reading this one, I started to warm up to Reid and I'm hoping he gets his own book with his own happy ending because light was shone on his character that started to really show why Reid is the way he is. And I really liked getting to know him that way.

As much as Reid grew on me in this one, I have to say the opposite was true of Brooke. Oh man! I liked her...more

To put it simply I loved 'Where You Are'. I completely enjoyed Ms. Webber's first book 'Between the Lines' and I was very happy when I found out she was writing a sequel to it because I really wanted to see where she was going to take her characters. Sometimes with sequels they don't hit the same high as the first book, but that is not the case with 'Where You Are', if anything it is better than the first book was. The story is told through 4 points of view- castmates Emma and Reid (the 2 POVs t...more

Wow!This sequel is better than the first book and I am not saying the first wasn't good. It was. This one is just REALLY good!!

As always in my reviews, I will NOT give a lot of information because then there is no reason for you to read the book yourself! (I HATE THAT!) With that said: In this sequel you get to see the 4 way love triangle between Graham, Emma, Reid and Brooke. And O.M.G.! There were parts in this that I wanted to S-T-R-A-N-G-L-E a certain person! Or maybe 2/3. :) You will defini...more

Quotes from Where You Are

“When you find yourself in a hole, the first thing to do is stop digging.” — 166 people liked it

“Something about first love defies duplication. Before it, your heart is blank. Unwritten. After, the walls are left inscribed and graffitied. When it ends, no amount of scrubbing will purge the scrawled oaths and sketched images, but sooner or later, you find that there’s space for someone else, between the words and in the margins.” — 133 people liked it
