The Naked Truth by Vi Keeland

One thing I can count on is falling for characters written by Vi Keeland. Doesn't matter what the story is about, who the characters are or want to be, if they deserve to be loved...I just do. This one had me wanting to know more right from the first chapter. And every new piece of information I was led to, just wanted me needing more. As all Ms. Keeland stories there is something "more" a twist and turn that leaves you breathless or wide eyed...but again wanting more. Gray and Layla's start wasn't conventional, it wasn't what "fairy-tales" are made of but it was their's. It was real and it meant more. The path they started on wasn't paved smoothly but every story has to have it's roadblocks and detours in order to find the happily ever after we are all searching for. Vi Keeland has a way of writing emotionally charged love stories that keep me entertained and wanting more from her.

The Peer And The Puppet by B.B. Reid

Wow. Gotta say it started with intrigue from the blurb and now I’m addicted to the story and where it’s all heading...this one had all the elements I love in a elite high school scene. The haves and the have nots combining to be all that and more. Addicting, suspenseful, well written and keeps you wanting MORE. The "it" boy with the "new" girl that has never had much...love, attention, a fighter...catches the eye of HIM. The Peer is completely captured by the The Puppet. Let the games begin. All the players add to the drama, the uncertainty of who is whom and where the danger will be found or can lead you. At every turn there is another turn...all while keeping you completely connected to the story unfolding and the relationships developing. The love/hate that jumps off of the pages, the push and pull, want but can't have back and forth. I LOVE IT!! My favorite kind of high school story. If you like books such as The Paper Princess, Tijan's Fallen Crest Series, I feel like you will completely be taken in with this series. I am SO ready for the next one. LIKE RIGHT NOW!! 

Love Machine by Kendall Ryan

It's a given...read a Kendall Ryan end up happy. This friends to more story left me with a smile on my face, sated and ready and waiting for the next one from this author. This story isn't anything new in the sense of friends to lovers but Ms Ryan always has an easy way of connecting me with the characters right away. And this one made me happy to see the guy kind of squirming with anticipation. Not just calling the shots but wanting and waiting for his chance. Cute, easy to read, and complete. As all of this author's stories go! 

Consume by Jessica Prince

I can't say enough about my love for all things JESSICA PRINCE! I have yet to read one of her stories that does not CONSUME me...completely, overwhelmingly, enraptured by each word on every page. I don't know how to explain the feeling that overtakes me while reading her stories. It's a knot, a pang of something...I never know if it's butterflies, the feeling of what's to come, or just a complete consumption of my reader heart. All I do know is every time I start one of her stories...I am completely connected and find myself devouring it in one quick sitting. By the time I reach the end...I am ready to read it again. 

Killian and Gina were everything. Strong, weak, better when together, but had a tension between them that bled off the pages. Once you take them in they become a part of you, as do all of Ms. Prince's characters. I wish everyone took the time to discover the effortless way this author writes and takes you on a journey that always guarantees a smile, a missed heartbeat, a gasp and even possibly a tear or two shed. Is this a fangirl review? UM yes..but completely deserved!! I LOVE this series and can't wait to read more. I want to forever read about these broken, screwed up boys that love hard and mess up harder. Addicted!
