Finished!
Caressa’s Knees (Comfort Series, #2) by Annabel Joseph Caressa's Knees by Annabel Joseph
Item: Bed
390 pages
3.5 stars

People: Celebrity - Hero worked for A-List Hollywood actor, and is now assistant to a world renowned cellist.
Place: Forest - "...knew their trip into the forest was for a very specific reason..." (loc 2459)
Thing: Bed - "...threw his suitcase on the bed, trying to master his temper." (loc 520)
Color: Red - "Nell, with the fiery red hair..." (loc 78)

Review:
We really get to know the Hero, Kyle, in the first book (Mr. I'll-take-a-bullet-for-the-one-I-love), and I was really excited to see who he ended up with. What I didn't expect was that he'd be matched up with a spoiled brat. Kyle was his usual big-hearted, loving self, and to see him with a bat-crazy psychopath who treated him like crap was a disappointment. Even the heroine (Caressa), in her rare moments of lucidity, kept wondering why he loved her. I have to be honest, even by the end of the journey, I was left wondering the same thing.

Book: At Last (Lucky Harbor, #5) by Jill Shalvis
Completed: 9.2.12
Rating: ♥♥♥♥
Review:
Amy Michaels was a wild teenager, she had made a lot of mistakes and could've endanger her life. She is now 28 years old, who has trust issues. She is settling down in Lucky Harbor, working as a waitress at the Eat Me Diner. Then in walks Matt..

Matt Bowers is the supervisory forest ranger of Lucky Harbor, with a military & SWAT background. He's noticed Amy since the first day she's moved to town. Based on his past experiences, he believes that he is better off alone.

There is a lot of chemistry between them. They both agreed on a fling, but it became more when they start to develop feelings for each other. Will they overcome their fears, and end happily ever after together?

I loved this book and every book in this series so far, I will definitely recommend this series to my friends.

Items
People - Single Male: "My brother's newly single." pg 223
Places - Mountain: "She hiked for what felt like forever on the steep mountain trail." pg 13
Things - Bed: "She'd been lying in her bed awake." pg 205
Colors - Green: "She wore eye-popping lime green sweats today." pg 228

Rating: *****
Review: I really enjoyed this series! It's in the same world as the Mercy Thompson books, but it's the exact opposite. Where Mercy wants to distance herself from the werewolves of montana, Ana wants to belong. I look forward to reading more about Alpha's and Omega's!

Dawn.....I always get confused about that part.

The Doctor's Family (Rocky Mountain Heirs #3) by Lenora Worth.

The Doctor's Family (Rocky Mountain Heirs #3) (Love Inspired) by Lenora Worth

Rate: 4 Stars
People: Child - Book Cover and Location 102.
Places: Bar - Location 587.
Things: Wheel - Location 2203.
Color: Green - Book Cover and Location 410.

This is the third book of the Rocky Mountain Heirs which is a Harlequin Love Inspired. Usually, I don't read many christian romance, where they have a good mix of religion and romance and the story. But this series has been surprisingly good, I think these are one of the few books that I give more than 2-3 stars. The series has been surprisingly good since every book is done by a different author, but the story is continuous and maintains the same standards so it doesn't even feel like different authors had a hand in it. I definitely liked reading this and can't wait to read the next one.

Book: My Blood Approves (My Blood Approves, #1) by Amanda Hocking
Completed: 9.9.12
Rating: ♥♥♥
Review: Alice is a typical high school student, who tries to go clubbing with her friend with a fake ID. The ID's didn't work, so they decided to walk home when four big burly guys chased them down. They were in trouble, and Jack saves the day. Alice starts hanging out with Jack and starts to develop feelings for him. She meets his family, and instantly she felt bound to his brother Peter. This book was full of drama, with vampires and a love triangle thrown into the mix. It was a good read. I would read the next book in the series.

Items
People - Non-human: "Alice, we're vampires." pg 332
Places - Road: "He pulled out of the driveway and sped down the road." pg 195
Things - Glitter: "Mae exclaimed, her eyes glittering." pg 404
Colors - Green: "They were an intoxicating shade of green and completely captivated me." pg 151

Page #'s are off, I was reading the ebook on my Ipod touch.

I loved this book. Angus and Emma were made for each other. I think my favorite line in this books was what Emma said Oh, Angus where's the beef? on page 190. I am so glad I finally read this book. So this is the 5th book I read in a row in this series. If that can tell you that I love this series. I love the plot of the series with the good and bad vampires.

Wicked Ties (Wicked Lovers, #1) by Shayla Black
Wicked Ties by Shayla Black
364 pages
3.5 stars

People: warrior - Hero is former military special ops turned bodyguard
Places: open space - a field (loc 851)
Things: wheel - steering wheel (loc 4549)
Color: green (loc 417)

My thoughts:
The writing was good (as was the story), but I’m a dialogue person, and there wasn’t much dialogue. Okay, so the fact that about 50% of the book is sex scenes might have something to do with it… LOL But even, the non-sex parts had very little. It was all internal thoughts, circular logic, and maneuvering the characters’ mindset. Don’t get me wrong – it was all done well. It just got to be a little tiresome.
