Loved Shifting Dreams and hope you enjoy it as much as i did. Love all of Elizabeth Hunter's books. Can't wait for the next books to come out for both her series Cambia Falls & Elemental Mysteries World. I still need to read Seduced In The Dark and The Immortal Rules. Planning on reading both this month.

Belkis (bminaya) | 8313 comments Well drudged through Edenbrooke by Julianne Donaldson and goodness that was brutal. 1 star read for me. What a waste of time. There's 6 hours of my time that I'm never getting back. Now the real question is, did I read a different book?!?! Seriously asking myself this question because how else can this book have hundreds of glowing reviews and 5 star ratings?!? What a waste. Had some nice expectations too. Oh well. Now reading Falling Into You (Falling #1) by Jasinda Wilder and hoping for a good read to make up for the bad one.

I'll be sure to let you know. I like Elizabeth Hunter's writing style.

@Belkis I'm enjoying it so far. Caleb is so charming and I've already giggled a couple of times. You definitely need to read The Immortal Rules and Seduced in the Dark.

Oh Sylvia it never got better honey. Just continued downhill all the way to the crapper. That was brutal. Dull as dirt I tell you.

Have you read Elizabeth Hunter's The Genius and the Muse by Elizabeth Hunter. That book is absolutely fabulous. I think you would love it.

Wow, you were not joking when you sad it gets bad. Surprisingly Tony is not the object of my anger and hate. I have compartmentalized him under the label "cruel, ruthless, sick man, discuss with alcohol", yes sir! But Claire? Dear God woman is an ostrich! (I know belief about ostrich is incorrect, but it makes me feel better to call her names!) I want to spank her silly!

Huh, I just had an epiphany. Is this some sort of revenge? Something to do with Claire and Tony's grandparents?

I second that! It will break your heart, make you bleed from inside out and when you think you can't possibly take more, Caleb will lick your wounds so deliciously you will beg for more.

Oh Paula I'm planning on reading it as well. I bought it a while back when I discovered Elizabeth Hunter's books and fell in lust with her writing. Glad to hear it's another great read so really looking forward to reading it. Will move it up to see if I can get to it within the next few weeks.

It took a bit for me to be on board with everything after the first half, but I did really enjoy it as a whole. After the prologue, you know its not going to be a happy ending, but damn if it kept me from wanting one!!

Oh that's a very hard question when it comes to the Elemental mysteries series as i really love most of the characters. I love Giovanni & Beatrice almost equally. But Carwyn, Tenzin and Ben hold dear places in my heart as well. And love that she wrote a spin-off series where we'll probably get to continue following then all and I hope it goes on for a few books just like the original series :)

Blood & Sand, which is about Boajia comes out at the end of this month. Already preordered it. I loved loved loved his character. So I am so happy to learn more about him. I must admit I also loved Lorenzo's character. He really was a villain that I hated to love but couldn't help. Unfortunately, his story is finished. I already asked Elizabeth Hunter about that. Lol.

♥ Ashleigh ♥  Contrary to popular belief I'm not actually mad! (cheshire_red) read Wolf Blood by N.M. Browne which I thought was pretty good. also read As I Wake by Elizabeth Scott have to say im not really a fan, and the end was just depressing - and not in a good way, more of a confused what the fuck just happened kind of way....
now re-reading Shatter Me (Shatter Me, #1) by Tahereh Mafi as I have just gotten my hands on the next book (Unravel Me) and cant recall everything that happened, plus its an awesome book so I don't mind re-reading it.

We got a a 1.5 year old Shih-tzu, and named him Lucky. We had been thinking about getting one from the SPCA for a while but just never got around to it. My friend emailed me and asked me if I wanted to take her dog because she changed jobs etc. and can't devote the time to him but didn't want to give him to just anyone. He's amazing!!!
