More Than This by Jay McLean

Genre: Young/New Adult Contemporary Romance
Advisory: This is for mature readers - Language and Sexual Content.

Description:
*Mikayla*
In one night my fairytale ended. Or it may have begun. This is my story of friendship and love, heartbreak and desire, and the strength to show weakness.

*Jake*
One night I met a girl. A sad and broken girl, but one more beautiful then any other. She laughed through her sadness, while I loved through her heartbreak.

*This is our story of a maybe ever after.*

"He was right. It made no difference whether it was 6 months or 6 years.
I couldn’t undo what had been done. I couldn’t change the future. I couldn’t even predict it.
It was one night.
One night when everything changed.
It was so much more than just the betrayal.
It was the tragedy. The deaths. The Murders.
But it was also that feeling.
That feeling of falling."

Exerts from the book:
"I slowly move my hands higher up her thighs while I gently push up against her just once. She’s staring into my eyes and I stare back. Her eyes are hooded and filled with lust, and if this happens, when this happens, planets are going to collide, and the world around us will explode."

"In my mind, this is what I look like: A giant St. Bernard, huffing and panting with sloppy drool falling out my mouth. Whimpering, like I need to lick and taste a giant bone inches from my face.
He can be my giant bone. Oh. my. god. Bone.
I should lick him.
Just his chest.
NO! I’m not that wasted.
Is he? Maybe he won’t remember if I just have one lick.
I start to turn to my side and face him, my eyes on his chest.
Do it..
“Kayla?”
“mmm?” I’m literally eye licking him.
“If you keep staring at me like that I’m gonna have to ask you to take your shirt off so we’re even.”

"She’s looking at me with so much emotion that I hope to hell that I’m reading her right. That the look she’s giving me is telling me everything I want to hear. That she believes in Fate. In Love. In us. Forever."

"He’s looking at me now, like, he sees me for the first time and tears begin to pool in his eyes. I have no idea what he’s thinking or feeling so I spin his cap backwards and take his face in my hands.
“Whats going on, Jake?”
He clears his throat and looks away from me.
“Jake?” I ask again.
He speaks so softly I almost don’t hear him."

Hi Crystal,

Sorry about that, I sent out a few copies that had a few more mistakes than I wanted. I'm in the editing stages at the moment, should hopefully be done soon. I'm happy to send you a copy of it as it is now. I just don't want any mistakes to take away from the story itself.

Jay


Crystal Taylor (ctaylor517) | 65 comments No rush, I didn't know that the time frame started when
you get the book. I just didn't want to get into trouble
for not getting my reviews in on time and not be able
to do any more R2Rs. I know I've been driving you
crazy over email, but know that I know I won't miss
the timeline/deadline I won't bother you any more until
you are ready to send it, lol :-) thanks.

Jay McLean (jaymclean) | 12 comments All good. I have two kiddies under 3 at home so I'm frantically trying to find someone to watch them for the day so it will be ready for the weekend.


Kristal Fischer Here is my review

Jenn Sternshein (bookdorkjenn) | 93 comments I'd like to review this if possible jjsternshein@gmail.com for kindle


message 26: by Jenn (new) - rated it 4 stars

Jenn (jennblen) Jenn- Hopefully with two Jenn's there won't be a mix up and we will both get it. lol. I think we are waiting for an updated version as it's being edited. I'm excited to read this. I've been hearing good things from a few others reviewing it right now.

Jay McLean (jaymclean) | 12 comments I won't get you co fused. Promise. I've got all the arc readers details in excel. I'm sitting watching my 3 yo in karate and all I want to do is be home editing so I can send it out to everyone. Sorry guys. Not much longer. Pulling an all nighter.

Jenn Sternshein (bookdorkjenn) | 93 comments I was thinking the same thing lol... When i saw jenn on the list i thought i had already signed up..

Jay McLean (jaymclean) | 12 comments It's funny because the two people before you were kristal and crystal.


message 30: by Jenn (new) - rated it 4 stars

Jenn (jennblen) Jenn-That's pretty funny. I would have thought the same thing had it been vice versa. :) I think I should add my last name initial for future things.

Jay- I didn't even notice that Kristal and Crystal part. That's funny...good thing there is a different spelling on those two. I can be patient while it's being edited. I was a tad afraid of being lost in the shuffle and hearing how much I needed to read this book from two other friends, I was getting antsy. lol. I think I would be going nuts too if I couldn't be home editing :( Even crummier that you have to pull in all nighter. I'm sure we would all understand if it were a few more days out. I would hate for you to lose sleep just to get it to us.
