Not sure if they are doing anymore or not. I don't see anything listed on the author page. I should ask my pubilciaty contact.

Started and finished
and good Lord! It was really good, but that ending! Seriously? What is it with authors now? They all want to torture us with crazy cliffhangers. I just wish I had known going into it. Oh well, at least it isn't very long until the next one releases.

Yay Rachel I'm so happy you loved it and I so want to read Beat too :)
Okay I finished

both were good. Not sure what I'm in the mood for right now so will have to go and check out my tbr LOL!
Reading
. The story has so much potential but the tense is all over the place and it's affecting my ability to get into the story more. It's making me sad.

Finished
last night and it was ok. Not my fave KA book, but ok. I have a hard time not giving it at least 4 stars, although I kinda want to give it 3.5 stars. Buuuuut, I won't. ;) Starting
tonight.

Bu..."That's a shame, usually KA's books are pretty good and I've read great comments about her Fantasyland series in general but I've also read that some of the books in the series are great and others are less appealing so maybe this was one of the not so great ones in the series. This is actually one of of her series that I'm very much looking forward to. I just wish she'd release it on audio already, ugh, LOL! Yeah because KA's books are wicked long for the most part so I've lucked out so far by grabbing them on audio just in time so I've been holding out on this and checking. I also really really want her PNR/Vampire trilogy to come out on audio too so I can jump all over it as well hahaha! I hope your next KA book is back on track.

SO GOOD Donna! You should really read this one soon.
Okay I'm halfway through
and it's very good so far. I've also started listening to
but I'm not that far in yet so not sure about it at this point. Keeping my fingers crossed that it's not a disappointment.
Belkis wrote: "Donna wrote: "Finished

Her books are always awesome, but sometimes I feel like they drag. There were moments in this where I felt that way, but of course she's built up the characters and I love them so I can't NOT read them! LOL. Of course, it could just be in the mood I'm in, too. I'm hoping the next book gains my attention.
Belkis wrote: "Donna wrote: "Belkis wrote: "Bridget wrote: "Started and finished

Just finished
and it was so good. I really liked it. Funny thing was when I got to the part where AJ and Amelia were talking about the Lion the Witch and the wardrobe and the Turkish Delight I was like - that was so me when I read that book as a kid. I was so curious about Turkish Delight and so sure it was amazing but then when I tried it I didn't like it at all. I wonder how many other people had that same moment?
Lol me too Teresa! There were so many great book moments in this! What did you think of the author signing event? LOL!!

I have had zero reading time lately, but I was feeling exactly the same up until about 2 weeks ago. The contemp romances were all blending together for me. =\

Jenny wrote: "Lol me too Teresa! There were so many great book moments in this! What did you think of the author signing event? LOL!!"The author signing event was so funny. That's what I loved about this book - it was a mix of funny, sad, happy, just everything. It's a great book for everyone but I think a really special book for book lovers
Sorry I've been MIA, between family visiting, trying to figure out a career path, getting back on the dating wagon, and race training, my spare hours are very few these days. I haven't had much time to read lately, but I did finish
which was really sexy but a bit over the top for my tastes. I loved it, but the idea of him being a priest with the fantasies he was having was hard to believe.
Finished
today, it surprised me and ended up being very good, a little different than the typical contemp romance so it was a nice change!
Next up is
, which I'm reading for review and don't have a lot of high hopes for but we'll see!

Checking out the TBR is never a good idea, it's just depressing because there are SO many there. lol

Thanks y'all! So far, I'm loving it. The prologue just drew me right in and I couldn't stop.

Exactly, Erin. After reading a bunch of contemporary romances (which I love) in a row, they all start sounding the same. I had to take a step back to regroup.

DNF'd Forever. I just could not do it. I got 1/2 way. The writing was terrible. The characters were flat. I just could not connect to it. I am still trying to get through Pitching to Win though I'm close to another DNF. Poor tense management, crazy descriptors (if someone's skin looks like tan leather, I think old, not 20 year old guy who should be glowing).
