Week Eight - Wing○Book:
by Jayde Scott○Completed: 10.26.12
○Rating: ♥♥♥
○Review: This book started off with Amber starting her new summer job as a housekeeper in the McAlister mansion in Scotland. She doesn't have the necessary skills for job, but she was hired thanks to her brother who filled out the application for her. Before she left school, in London, her boyfriend decides that they need to go on a break. She then meets her boss, Aidan, who is young and good looking.
Aidan isn't who Amber thinks he is, but she is starting to fall for him. She unknowingly entered a race and won the valuable gift, and now all the creatures are after her for it. She soon finds out what Aidan really is, a vampire, and isn't sure who to trust. Is Aidan telling the truth about her being his mate or is he just trying to use her to bring her ex back to life (she's not human though so it's not exactly back to life lol).
This ebook was ok, I'll definitely try the next book in the series though.

Review:
First in the series Hot Shots. I had read this a year ago, but it was during the time, my fiancee and I were house looking down in Houston and I really didn't pay much attention. I know (Shame on me!!). I never the rest of the series, and I had completely forgotten about me ever reading it, except goodreads told me that I had. The book is great, it has really HOT firefighters, they are not just firefighters, they are hotshots!! Fighting some of the biggest fires out in Tahoe. Maya Jackson has come to investigate the string of fires and her only suspect is Logan Cain, a hotshot and someone Maya almost slept with 6 months ago. A lot of action packed, with mystery and romance.
Item:
People: - Single Male - Cover
Places: - Forest - "Desolation Wilderness was rugged terrain, but this forest was the backyard playground for the Tahoe Pines Hotshot Crew." - Location 250. Also Cover.
Things: - Wing - "...had been waiting in the wings to see if they'd made it out of his house alive." - Location 3789.
Colors: - Orange - "A bright orange, red and yellow ball of fire slowly disappeared into bright blue water as she thanked David and hung up." - Location 3183.

Road: Lizz, and Kim
Blood: Hina
Wing: Kim (Pending)
Bag: Hina & Kim
Stairs: Cindy, Lizz, Suzanne and Kim
Orange: Lizz

Kim,I didn't know what you are planning on claiming from the Wing book, so I left your name on the list, let me know what you plan to claim from that and we can go from there, its not like we have a lot of choices!!! :)
How does it work for a category like people, all of us are done claiming everything on the list under people, kim is finishing her book for that. So for this week forward, we don't have to look to read something from those category...? right?
After Kim finishes, we are all done with People. All of us have at least one item left to claim in Places, except Suzanne.
Kim and me have two claim two items in things, while the rest have only one item left.
All of us have only 1 color leftover.
Plan away!!
I'm off to find a Mountains/Cliff book.

○Book:
○Completed: 10.18.12
○Rating: ♥♥♥♥
○Review: This book was about a woman who doesn't feel noticed or valued, by her father to coworkers to her crush. Melissa has always been a little kid in their eyes, mainly because she grew up helping her dad's business as his assistant. Her dad owns a sports agency and her crush, Dominic is one of their clients. She's a lot younger then he is, him playing pro football when she was only in her teens. Melissa finally stood up for herself in front her father in the end, and realized that Dominic has always noticed her. This was a good second book, I'm planning to read the last book in the series.
