Yup, that's why I read it. I started it Saturday night and finished it Sunday. I hope you like it.

Found the next MUST-read for our thread here, guys and gals!! I finished Before He Was Famous (HotFlush, #1) by Becky Wicks , and it was breathtaking! Beautifully poetic writing blended with a heart-wrenching but all-encompassing contemporary romance story, with characters that are so easy to love. Outstanding!!

Very sorry to hear about your mom and your struggles, Laura. I hope things start to improve for you soon, and that there is something they can do for your mom to help.

I wasn't crazy about Wicked Nights either Mel. I much prefer her Lords of the Underworld series.

Belkis (bminaya) | 8313 comments Meh.. Finding It (Losing It, #3) by Cora Carmack is not thrilling me. Sigh... I guess I'm suffering from book hangover after finishing some really awesome reads :) I might shelf it and attempt something else. Maybe I'll start The Seelie King (The Kings #5) by Heather Killough-Walden Happenstance by Jamie McGuire

Still pushing through The Rules for Breaking (The Rules for Disappearing, #2) by Ashley Elston . It's not any better really than the first one. I think it's the writing that's bothering me. Oh and there are some plot holes or problems with the writer repeating things as well. I need to pick something else up!

Oh Sara I had completely forgotten about this series until now that you've mentioned it. Have to unearth it from my huge TBR pile and move it up so I can eventually get to it. Keep us posted on how you like it. I remember Erin reading it and enjoying it a lot :)

Oh Brooke sorry. That sucks. Right there with you in a sense because Finding It (Losing It, #3) by Cora Carmack is still dull as dirt. I think after this one I'm officially done with this series :(

Donna | 1350 comments Finished The Force of Wind (Elemental Mysteries, #3) by Elizabeth Hunter last night and started A Fall of Water (Elemental Mysteries #4) by Elizabeth Hunter . SO GOOD! After this series, think I may reread Building From Ashes (Elemental World, #1) by Elizabeth Hunter (sigh, Carwyn) and finish that series, too.

They're SO addicting and SO fantastic! Love all of EH's characters. She's just brilliant at hooking you into her worlds and characters. They just stay with you forever. I'm so glad you're loving them too Donna :) I've read them and LOVED them all. Bought them in audio as well and plan on listening to them at some point this year.

I can't recall if you said you've read her contemporary novel - The Genius And The Muse - yet, but oh my goodness, if you haven't yet, it's a MUST. Promise you. You'll freaking LOVE IT! It's that great.

UGH, that's another one on my list. I just read Losing It and it was just OK for me. Now I'm worried to read anything else in the series.

No I haven't read it yet, but its on my TBR list! :) I am definitely LOVING her writing style & world building. Her characters are so full and rich - can't seem to get enough. I completely understand why you love her so much!

I read the first two and haven't picked up Finding It (Losing It, #3) by Cora Carmack . I liked the last one, but I don't know . ..

Well, I have to say I really liked Losing It a lot. And the next ones were really good too. With this one, I feel like I just don't like the MC Kelsey. She comes off as spoiled and self-absorbed and whiny, at least to me. And whatever her "issue" or "secret" is hasn't come to light yet and I'm more than halfway done with the book. And the male MC seems to have some "secret" as well, that yet again, still hasn't come to light either. In the meantime, they're strolling through Europe, getting to know each even if unintentionally, and yeah, whatever LOL! I guess I'll see where it goes. It's not terrible. The author is a good writer. It's just not all that interesting. Plus the MC, eh... not all that likeable. Some readers seem to really like it though because it has a pretty high rating.

Same here Mandy, I really liked the first few but I'm struggling a little with this one though but I'm still getting through it so we'll see how it turns out.

I am reading Emerald Green (The Ruby Red Trilogy, #3) by Kerstin Gier , which I love then going to finish Lover Reborn (Black Dagger Brotherhood, #10) by J.R. Ward and after that I am going to read Seize the Night (Dark-Hunter, #6) by Sherrilyn Kenyon . This Dark Hunter series by Kenyon is awesome. If you guys like the BDB then you will absolutely love the Dark Hunters. Not that they are as good as the brothers but they are in the same ball park.

Yay! Can't wait for you to read this one, it's slower-paced as far as the romance goes but there's lots of torment as it goes. And the writing is just SO sweet!!
