Belkis (bminaya) | 8313 comments Okay ladies I'm three quarters done with Jane's Melody by Ryan Winfield and totally in LOVE with it. My goodness it's so wonderful to read a contemporary romance with 2 likeable main characters. They're both honest and strong. I'm so over al of the whiny, weak, bitchy, overly dramatic, main characters flooding so many of the books lately that I'm jumping for joy over this one. The storyline is interesting and the writing is really great.

Glad I could help Donna;) I read the raven boys and liked it too. Let me know how book 2 is.

I am halfway through Lover Revealed (Black Dagger Brotherhood, #4) by J.R. Ward and although it isn't as riveting as the others it is still quite good.

♥ Ashleigh ♥  Contrary to popular belief I'm not actually mad! (cheshire_red) read Mortal Engines (The Hungry City Chronicles, #1) by Philip Reeve In the Flesh by Portia Da Costa in the last couple of days, now reading The Iron Wyrm Affair (Bannon & Clare, #1) by Lilith Saintcrow , so far not as good as I was hoping, but not bad.

Yes Kasey, I finished it and absolutely LOVED it. A moving story that hit all the right emotional notes with a worthy couple, beautiful story, and wonderful writing. Guys, you honestly can't go wrong with this one.

Finished Mutual Release (Stewart Realty #7) by Liz Crowe and it was great, another for the TBR if you love a great erotic romance story. Finishing up Dead Sky Morning (Experiment in Terror, #3) by Karina Halle , which is by far the creepiest of the series yet!!

Have To the Fifth Power (Powers, #1) by Shirin Dubbin and Love, Technically by Lynne Silver lined up next, hoping they're better than the reviews make them out to be!

Just finished Redemption and I can say neither ended in a cliffhanger. Each series has another book so there are definitely some unresolved issues but nothing where you are slapping your head going why? why? why?

Yeah, the low ratings aren't giving me too much hope, but I agreed to do them both for blog review because they are nice QUICK reads!! I've been doing too many long-ass stories lately and I need some that don't have me attached to the iPad all day and night just to finish them. =)

I know, I've had the same 8 books sitting in my "currently reading" shelf for about a month now because I keep getting distracted with the shiny new toys. LOL I've read 3 heavy erotica books very close together, so I'm not getting to this one right away either, but it's a good one for the TBR for sure!

yes, I truly enjoyed it last month when I read it too Kitlina. I was anxiously awaiting its release and jumped on it as soon as it came out. Such a wonderful but heartbreaking story.

It does have a HEA Rebecca, but the journey there is not without its trials and sorrows. But it's such a wonderful story and a fresh retelling of the classic fairytale.

Ok, I dont usually consider a story heartbreaking if it has an HEA. I was scared for a second I would have to remove it from my tbr. :P
