Frigid Book Trailer Reveal!
Tuesday, July 16, 2013
Exciting news!!! JLA is celebrating the release of her new book, Frigid with a yummy book trailer! I can't wait to get my hands on her latest work! JLA never disappoints!!
For twenty-one-year-old Sydney, being in love with Kyler isn’t anything new. They’d been best friends ever since he pushed her down on the playground and she made him eat a mud pie. Somewhere over the years, she fell for him and fell hard. The
big problem with that? Kyler puts the ‘man’ in man-whore. He’s never stayed with a girl longer than a few nights, and with it being their last year in college, Syd doesn’t want to risk their friendship by declaring her love.
Kyler has always put Syd on a pedestal that was too high for him to reach. To him, she’s perfect and she’s everything. But the feelings he has for her, he’s always hidden away or focused on any other female. After all, Kyler will always be the poor boy from the wrong side of tracks, and Syd will always be the one girl he can never have.
But when they’re stranded together at a posh ski resort due to a massive Nor’easter, there’s nothing stopping their red-hot feelings for each other from coming to the surface. Can their friendship survive the attraction? Better yet, can they survive at all? Because as the snow falls, someone is stalking them, and this ski trip may be a life-changer in more ways than one.

Obsession by Jennifer L. Armentrout Cover Reveal
Wednesday, May 8, 2013
OBSESSION official Blurb:
He’s arrogant, domineering, and… To. Die. For.
Hunter is a ruthless killer. And the Department of Defense has him firmly in their grasp, which usually doesn’t chafe too badly because he gets to kill bad guys. Most of the time he enjoys his job. That is, until he’s saddled with something he’s never had to do before: protect a human from his mortal enemy.
Serena Cross didn’t believe her best friend when she claimed to have seen the son of a powerful senator turn into something…unnatural. Who would? But then she witnesses her friend’s murder at the hands of what can only be an alien, thrusting her into a world that will kill to protect their secret.
Hunter stirs Serena’s temper and her lust despite their differences. Soon he’s doing the unthinkable—breaking the rules he’s lived by, going against the government to keep Serena safe. But are the aliens and the government the biggest threats to Serena’s life…or is it Hunter?

Alpha Girl by Kate Bloomfield Review
Wednesday, May 1, 2013
So I took a chance on this novella, hoping to have that changed and I was pleasantly surprised! I found the whole student teacher thing to be slightly off putting but after I found out the reasons behind their attraction, it was ok.
Ah, but all this forbidden love...it's just satisfying! A guilty pleasure for sure!
Let's talk about characters...
Rose. She's not an annoying seventeen year old. She's pretty mature for her age and she has quite a mouth on her. I like it when teenage characters curse, because it's REALISTIC. I like intelligent teen characters also because it's also REALISTIC. We've got to stop underestimating our youth and see them for the budding adults they are. Rose is trying to tell everyone that she knows what she wants and as usual parents and the rest of the adults are trying to do what's best for her not realizing that she's now old enough to know exactly what that is. In this case, Mr.Stone.
Tom Stone. He's hot. I mean who doesn't love a sexy English teacher? If my English teachers were that smokin' in high school, I'd have trouble resisting also. He's intelligent and sees Rose as a person not a dog or weirdo like everyone else. He values her opinions and is challenged by her.
The one thing I'm going to say is that in terms of character maturity, Rose seems wise beyond her years and at times Tom seems like he's only seventeen. I mean, I know we're dealing with the paranormal here but if anyone has read vampire academy (and I can't believe I'm going to reference VA) Dimitri resisted Rose for quite a while and I appreciated that. I know it's COMPLETELY different but so much happens so FAST in this novella. I kept getting the Twilight Instalove vibe and that's a no-no for me. We want our characters to jump off the pages so we gotta make those characters go through leaps and bounds for love. It just feels more satisfying that way. Still, I loved his character and he was very caring towards Rose.
Anyway, it was a good read and I'd recommend it to anyone who was looking for something easy to fall into. This is one of those books that for me, was effortless to read! :)
Shadow Kiss Review
Thursday, April 4, 2013
As Rose questions her sanity, new complications arise. Lissa has begun experimenting with her magic once more, their enemy Victor Dashkov might be set free, and Rose's forbidden relationship with Dimitri is starting to heat up again. But when a deadly threat no one saw coming changes their entire world, Rose must put her own life on the line - and choose between the two people she loves most.
Oh what can I say about these books? This series isn't THE WORST thing I've read but there's something here that isn't clicking for me. The fact that it took me almost a month and a half to read this ONE book should say something about it's ability to pull me into the story and it's world.
The one thing that saves me is DIMITRI BELIKOV and all his hotness. Yet, even the forbidden love aspect of these books can't pull me in for longer than thirty mins. I'm often thinking about other things or other books I can be reading.
I gave Shadow Kiss three stars. It was MEH just as much as the first two books were. Will I finish the series? Yes. Is it at the top of my to-do list? Heck no.
