Life is about choices. Some right, some wrong. Every choice sets us down dividing paths. With past and purpose all but forgotten, Bree Nolan and Finn Hadley must cling to the one thing they know, friendship. When remnants of their past come back to haunt them, they realize that they are not as powerless as they once believed. The fight for their future has just begun and only their past can save them. Sometimes we’ll do anything to make up for our wrong choices. Sometimes we can only sit back and watch as fate unfolds.

Under The Bleachers By: K.K. Allen Review
Release Date:
February 28, 2017
Synopsis:
One kiss can change everything.
Fun and flirty Monica Stevens lives for chocolate, fashion, and boys … in that order. And she doesn’t take life too seriously, especially when it comes to dating. When a night of innocent banter with Seattle’s hottest NFL quarterback turns passionate, she fears that everything she once managed to protect will soon be destroyed.
Seattle’s most eligible bachelor, Zachary Ryan, is a workaholic by nature, an undercover entrepreneur, and passionate about the organizations he supports. He’s also addicted to Monica, the curvy brunette with a sassy mouth—and not just because she tastes like strawberries and chocolate. She’s as challenging as she is decadent, as witty as she is charming, and she’s the perfect distraction from the daily grind.
While Monica comes to a crossroads in her life, Zachary becomes an unavoidable obstacle, forcing her to stop hiding under the bleachers and confront the demons of her past. But as their connection grows stronger, she knows it only brings them closer to their end.
It’s time to let go.
To have a future, we must first deal with our pasts. But what if the two are connected?

Under the Bleachers: A Novel
My Rating:
My Review:
K.K. Allen has blown me away with this book. I did not think she could top Up In The Treehouse, but Under The Bleachers is equally as enjoyable! I am not a fan of sports in any way, shape, or form and this book absolutely held my attention, thanks to its character driven plot and the extremely likable personalities of the two MCs. Bleachers deals with scars. Scars can be caused by so many things; absent fathers, childhood bullies, self-doubt, and guilt. Healing takes time, and sometimes it takes a very special person to make you realize that those scars make you beautiful. They are reminders that you have lived, after all. That you survived to tell the tale. The tale of Under the Bleachers is a magnificent journey inward to find one’s true self and to let it flourish. Zachary Ryan brings out the best in Monica, he sets her passions in motion and gives her the courage and the confidence to go after a dream she didn’t even realize she had. There is also some great background content with our favorite couple from Up In The Treehouse! This book deserves so much more than 5 stars. I would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a well-written love story that deals with real life fears and obstacles.

I was interviewed yesterday! Check it out!
Let me guess. You are all looking at this going, dear god, another one. Yes. Yes another one. I am quite enjoying subjecting you to new authors, books, and people of the like. You know why? Because it tortures you and makes me smile knowing that no matter what, you will still read. Because you love me. And my quirkiness. And My interviews are interesting.
And even if you don’t think they are that interesting, you still come back. And why? Because I have book reviews, or random rants. You never know what is coming when you open my blog. And today is C.L. Cannon. Triple threat extraordinaire. She writes, she edits, she creates amazing covers for books. Whats that you say? “I’ve never seen one of her cover designs!” Well, if you have been reading my blog at all, you have. Janae’s covers have all been done by C.L., the cover to Chub Rub, Souls to the Polls and Holiday Heartwarmers all have been created by C.L. Cannon. Starting to ring a bell now? Yes. She created them all. Because she is awesome like that. So I had to interview her, and let you all get to know the author behind the short story Chasing Time in Holiday Heartwarmers, and if you haven’t read that yet, her story is next to last. Go read it. It’s worth the time. Now to kick off our interview with this gorgeous picture of C.L. and her biography to follow!
Bio:
My name is Courtney Cannon, writing under the name C.L. Cannon. I’m thirty years old going on five. I love to read and believe that nothing in this world is stronger than the imagination. Movies will never be books, and beauty is only skin deep. I love music, and I frequently sing in my car, much to the dismay of the cars surrounding me, I’m sure!

My Rating:
My Review:
A wonderfully refreshing book! I thoroughly enjoyed the mythology and unique storyline. The characters are likable and complex in construction. The story is unpredictable and keeps you on the edge of your seat for what comes next. I especially loved some of the pop culture references!
Blurb:On her eighteenth birthday, Amanda has a dream that feels strangely lifelike. When Amanda recounts the experience to Melinda, the faithful housekeeper who has looked after her since her mother’s death, she assures her it’s meaningless, with no significance at all. But Melinda isn’t telling Amanda the truth.
Craig, the older brother of Amanda’s friend Hanna, has loved Amanda from afar for years. But a deep secret, going back centuries in time, keeps him from ever making a move.
When Melinda, who has a secret of her own, tells Craig about Amanda’s dream, it changes everything between them. Two vampires posing as men are pursuing Amanda, and Craig is devoted to keeping her safe. Luckily Craig and his sister are Hunters, the only supernatural creatures able to defeat the evil beings.
Craig and Hanna will do anything to protect Amanda, because they know that their friend has a special mission … even though she doesn’t have any idea of what’s happening around her or who she truly is.
