rating 4 stars
I really like this one! I was lost at times because I have not read the first one but will definitely read it now. I recommend reading the first one before reading this one. This book is about simply about a group of teenagers that must save the world. Fast pace and so very easy to read I could not put this one down!

This book was a bit hard to get into as I didn't really like the main character Lizzie until a fair way into the book. As she grew in confidence and self worth I eventually grew to like her and the second half of the book had me thoroughly engrossed with laughter at Lizzie's escapades. I will be reading the next in the series.

This book was amazing it had it all action,funny moments, moments,you wanted to be part of the expanding family and friends,and moments where you wanted to join Riely on her emonital journey,and last but not least moments where you wanted to hurt certain characters.
This book had me tied up in nots I laughed, cried,and I went through so many other emonitions till the end of the book. Not only is this one of my favorite series but,this was my favorite book in the series. I love Eli and Riley.

Review:
A strong piece about the cages you place yourself in with guilt or fear. Owen is a shy stutter with a congenital amputation of his arm who live his life in his apartment because he fears peoples reaction and how his stuttering makes him feel. Nick is a vet who also is HIV+ and he is afraid to have intimate relation because he use his guilt to imprison him to a celibate life no matter how much he is attracted to some one. they both have to make great revelation and leaps of courage to keep the relationship that start going. this is a great shared series by some of the best writers of M/M Romance.

The setting is very strong, but the characters and their relationship is underwritten. The dialogue is choppy and I just never got into this.

This is the second installment to Pamela Clare's I-Team Series & this one does not disappoint! Author Pamela Clare does a great job at throwing suspense & romance into one! This story is about investigative reporter Tessa Novak & undercover FBI agent Julian Darcangelo working together to solve the murder case of a teenage girl and tracking down a killer. Their relationship was well developed and believable & together, they burn the pages with hot, scorching flames! The story moved at a fast pace with lots of suspense, romance, and twist & turns. I really enjoyed this book & highly recommend it for those who like their romantic suspense with great & unforgettable characters! I can't wait to read the rest of the series & I have no doubt that the rest of the series will be phenomenal as well!

What I really liked about this book was the ( plot,characters,and action scenes ).
Not only did the story keep my interest it fascinated me right from the beginning to the end not only that but,it kept me guessing up till the end as well.
The chemestry between Saloman and Elizabeth is mesmerizing and most of the time their scenes together would leave me breathless.
The writing flows smoothly and it is easy to become lost in the world Treanor created

I received this from the publisher for a honest review. I was so happy to receive this one loving the first book so much. This one did not disappoint. I truly love the characters and the atmosphere of this book. I also love how these books are put together with the creepy feelings that it portrays. A great follow up and I cant not wait to read the next one. I would recommend this one for lovers of YA and for fans of the first one.

Review: This bring alot of the storyline to a conclusion, but their is still alot to tie up. good thing this is going to continue but I think I have to wait for the next book to be published. Prophet and tom and the gang captured and Killed Sadiq but still need to capture former teammate and main villian John Morse. Prophet and Tom are Two Alpha Males who both liek to Be Dominated occassionally even though they Also Like to be The Dominator. Learned a bit more about the teammates and how certain things had happenned to them.

"There can be nothing between us. There is no hope for me. I must die, and you must live." I must admit Adrian "The Betrayer" is my new favorite in this series. The comedic banter between Nell and Adrian was great and made the characters real and identifiable. Having Christian and Allie as supporting characters was just icing on the cake. The plot was refreshing and different than previous books. Plenty of action, mystery and intrigue and did I forget STEAM?

I liked this one but I did not love this one. It took a little bit for the action to get going on this one but once it was going the action was great. I also really like the writing style of this author. I also like reading about the Fae and their society. I also have to mention the cover is beautiful.
Hi team, I haven't forgotten this, just had to juggle challenges, I'll have this done by tonight in time for the roll

The Magic of You is the 4th book in J.L,s Mallory series.
It was a fun,sweet,and romtanic story all in one package.I was blown away by it and I found that it tugs at your heart strings and leaves a lasting impression. The other characters als provide some entertaining deversions from the main story.

3.5 stars. A solid story. Reed comes off much better here even with the Shindo issue. The mystery was a bit mixed but I was intrigued. I think at this point I just want a nice short where Reed and Trent aren't in danger!

This one was good. I like the characters but was not in love with them. I like the concept of them falling in love with one being Amish and one not. I do really like the ending. Also I liked that it was believable drama and not over the top with it that some young adult romances can do. I would definitely read some more from this author.

Once again Sherrilyn Kenyon has forced me to read all night long. I couldn't put this book down. My heart went out to Valerius so strong so upright, till Tabitha enters his domain, and shakes it up a bit. You can feel the sparks immediately from these too. This book as well as all other Dark Hunter books just grabs you and keeps you reading till the very last page, which is hard to come too cause you want it to go on and on.

I absolutely loved this book onces I started reading the book it was very hard for me to put it down.
This book had a lot of unforgettable scenes and un forgettable dialogs .here is one of my favorite
"If you would take one step forward darling,
You could cry in my arms. And while you do
I'll tell you how sorry I am for everything I've
done and when i'am finished you can help me find
a way to forgive myself"
Hey just to let y'all know, Danielle found this and I just thought I'd warn everyone in case they can't roll until tomorrow.Advisory: RANDOM.ORG will be intermittently unavailable on Sunday 2014-09-28 due to maintenance work.
Oh no! What are we to do if we can't roll? Is there another site we can use for just this roll?

Rating: 4 stars
This book is intense. And I really appreciate the work that goes into writing this series. Each story is completely different. Each one has elements of BDSM and kink and humiliation. They explore the strengths and weaknesses of each character and the characters always feel real. I am so glad the "family" was all here and Sam, Randy, Mitch and Ethan play big roles here without getting in the way. Gordy however, does get in the way and I think there was just always this layer of distance because of him and the situation so I never loved this book. But a less than perfect Heidi is still an amazing book. And I'm so glad to have met the awesome Caramela!

David is an uptight well respected conductor who comes from a wealthy background. Alex Bishop is the former foster kid who is now a brilliant, versatile violinist. While the story is rich with detail about the lives of these two I never understood the connection and the story dragged a bit. I think Alex was a bit too perfect and David just a bit too hung up on his rich grandfather's scorn of his chosen profession.

I thought this book was great. Love Vane! I love the fact that in all the Dark Hunter books there's a different type of woman. Some lean and muscular, some curvy, some nerdy, some heavier set (like Bride in this book). I think it makes you connect more to the stories when it seems more realistic. We're not all 5'9 super models so for there to be female leads who are described as people you could know in reality was inspirational and had me sucked right in!

I LOVED this one. It was so good! I could not put this one down. This one was about a women who witness a murder one night and no one seems to believe her. No one but Lucan Thorne. That thrust her into a world of vampires and a war. I love the couple. Also the writer really could write a wonderful steamy love scene. Really good one if you enjoy paranormal romance.
