Oh do you mean in Dreamless or something else? Cause the love triangle in Dreamless is going to KILL ME!!! There is only ONE for Helen....ONE!!!!!!
And for the Premonition series(not sure if you read it yet) but there is only ONE for Evie!!!!! NOT Russell or Brennus!!! Only Reed!!! The passionate, radiant Reed I love so much!! OMG these love triangles will be the death of me!! :(

The one in Thoughtless (Thoughtless, #1) by S.C. Stephens It'll have your head spinning and biting your nails at the same time!!!

Aaaaaaaniiiieee!!!

LMAO, okay, so I popped in here and it looks like between Shelly and Heather we now have you completely paranoid about love triangles!!! Oh, I'm laughing so hard I have tears in my eyes right now...okay, so to clear things up:

Shelly was talking about Thoughtless, and the flip-flopping that Kiera does to Kellan, which makes you want to strangle her...but it's an AMAZINGLY beautiful, sexy story that you MUST read!!

Heather and I have been chatting about the Premonition series, and yes I 1000% must have Reed get the girl and you know I'd never push this series if he turned into a Ren, but Annie when you meet Brennus you will understand...he's like a paranormal Christian Grey! LMAO Not that I want him with her, but he's a sexy treat to dream about anyway! ;-)

I completely agree that Radiant Reed is THE one!! I just think that it would be a snooze fest without the other boys to spice it up : )


message 8211: by Rebecca (last edited Jun 02, 2012 02:10PM) (new)

Rebecca | 453 comments @Annie: I think books like Timeless (Timeless, #1) by Alexandra Monir are mostly enjoyed by people who really like historical fiction, and the descriptive writing it implies. Some people don't like long details about the surroundings, which is understandable, I guess.


message 8212: by Elle (Ligia) (new)

Elle (Ligia) | 205 comments Okay, a question over here... did anyone else notice how What I Didn't Say by Keary Taylor and Waiting for You by Abigail Strom have the same picture cover? Plus the male character in both books is named Jake... Are they somewhat related?

No I never noticed that! LOL Well I know a lot of books have similar covers especially self published. I think it's because the authors buy the same pictures to use.

Hmm.. well that makes sense! LOL I was picturing a very bad story in my head. What can I say I have a very active imagination xD lol

Weird that they both have a Jake character but I'm sure it's just a coincidence. I read something where a self published author was talking about designing covers and there is a website they go to where they purchase the pictures. Then they design the cover and if they don't change it too much then a lot of covers end up looking similar. Just how the couple on the cover of Obsidian is on the cover of over 35 other books.

LMAO!!!!! It's okay Erin. I was just confused by who Shelly was talking about. It seems we all are talking about the same or similar books and I think we are all annoyed with certain love triangles when we know who THE ONE should be. Hahahaha, glad we had that cleared up. Trust me Erin, I plan on reading Thoughtless ASAP. I love your recommendations, they always turn out to be my favorite books or series!! :)

I agree Heather, I guess it would be quite boring if there wasn't drama mixed into the series. I just can't help but love Reed. Ah, I dream about him!! LOL

Probably no link at all, I think the names are just coincidence. There are a lot of books with the same model pix on the front. GR actually has a page dedicated to books that have 'that girl and hot guy from the Obsidian cover', and there are several with the same pix!! LOL

LMAO, I know, I'm always paranoid about love triangles, especially after the Bloodrose and Pandemonium debacles!!

Aw, and hearing that you love the books I recommend just makes my day since you know you took my 'book recommendation' virginity with your great reviews. ;-) Mwah!

Aww, thanks love! I was happy to take your 'book recommendation' virginity!! LOL and OMG Bloodrose....oh man, that ruined so much for me. I always freak out when there's a love triangle involved worried that it would be another 'Bloodrose' catastrophe. I hope to never come across something like that ever again....my heart couldn't take it!!!

God, I know, and there are so many series out now where I know my heart would just be ripped out of my chest if 'my guy' was left behind (or *ahem* dead), so I'm kind of cheating and waiting for reviews on some of them! LOL

And yeah, we'll always have that special moment...*sigh* I'll never forget it, Annie, it was really a beautiful thing... ;-D

xD You're making me so jealous. I totally need to check this out once it's out.

Oh, and I'm also reading
Witch Hunt (The Witch-Game, #2) by K.C. Blake since it was for free on Amazon, and the blurb seemed pretty cool. Now that I'm almost done--holy unicorns, it's WAY better than what I was expecting!

Yep ^_^ It might not be suited for people who're prefer serious, dark reads, since this one is pretty light. If you don't mind the latter, it's awesome.

Well, it's not perfect or the best book I've read, but it's still pretty decent if you're looking for a fast, exciting enough read. It's not bad, but not supremely awesome in short. Guess it depends on what you like reading.
