My favorite quotes

“Are you telling me that you weren’t in love with me?” “Collin, I do love you, I always will, but the way I feel about Nolan is like nothing I’ve ever felt before. It’s just different…I’m sorry.”Read more at location 1376
Standing here, watching Alexa with Nolan, I can see it; I can see the pure and honest love that they share.Read more at location 1389 •
Amanda started dating Nolan’s friend, Trevor. I know, right? Amanda have a boyfriend? I didn’t believe it at first, myself. I don’t even think she did, either. Seeing them together, though, you would think they’ve know each other forever. They are both equally crazy, and perfect for one another. Life is much easier with our best friends dating. Instead of having to divide our time between us and friends, we all hang out together. We’re the quad squad!Read more at location 1588
Now I think we need a book about Amanda and Trevor

Thanking God for every answered prayer he has given me since the day I met Alexa and thanking God for giving me this beautiful angel, for making her love me the way I love her, for not taking her away from me too soon; I thank God for all of it.Read more at location 1755

This was book #2 in the Forever Series. They say it is a stand alone or spin off I say NOPE you have to read book1. When you do you will see the growth of the characters and the author. This book was smarter and sexier if that is possible. I so enjoyed when Collin and Summer came to visit Matt. It brought the first book and the characters right back to you. So see don’t skimp, buy book one. Parties, sororities and getting drunk are the opposite of Leah Bennett. Leah is cute and comes equipped with a smart mouth. She is not the typical football player’s girlfriend. The day she meets Matthew Jacobs, is the day her future is sealed. She doesn’t know it and she is so secretive that her coy attitude doesn’t give the “real” Leah away. Her room-mate Kayla is the polar opposite. She lives College life for her self and puts studying second. Leah explains Kayla “Although Kayla is completely harmless and would never hurt a fly, she is dumber than a box of rocks, and I would rather listen to her nails dragging on a chalkboard then have her chatting my ear off about nothing at all.”

She realizes that Matt is not at all what she thought him to be. Just because he is in a frat house and the star wide receiver, doesn’t mean he has no standards. Apparently  Matt shows he is a little bit of an alpha male. Leah thinks she has him pegged and is confused by his actions then it becomes clear. “Now hearing him say that, this picture I’ve drawn of him is false”

Another hilarious quote, that doesn’t give plot away is “Holy fin Mother Theresa! He did not just say that me bowling a perfect game is a turn on!” 

Last night it happened! “Finally feeling like a true college student, I didn’t go home last night” How cute is that? I think really cute.

Location 1413 “What the hell? Am I a dick-a-holic now?” Another laugh and spit on the kindle!

So they are cute and the entire story has it’s ups and downs. There was a reveal that sort of blew me away because it explained Matthew’s family. Just the right amount of everything boiled in a pot and served up like a 5 star meal! Read it and enjoy the story, it continues with Promising Forever in May and then in July Giving You Forever. Get in line now this author rocks and I want more already!

Through my addiction for reading, I’ve discovered my passion for writing. I’ve written two books, Planning on Forever and Summer Rush. I’m a hopeless romantic, and love reading and writing about it.

I once again feel like I hit the jackpot! This book was such a fluffy piece of feel good I could squeal out loud! It is a series and the second book is labeled as a spin-off. I hate to say that is wrong, because I think it is. It is just another piece of the puzzle that runs almost concurrent with this one. So the story is very YA and I like that most of the time. Although there was angst and drama it was not too much to handle. I dont like when I am yelling at the Kindle telling a character “stop” or “Oh my gosh how dumb are you”? This was perfect in that respect.

The main characters Alex’s and Collin were the perfect couple with so much ahead of them. Without giving the plot away they were perfect until Collin was a bad boy. Even at a young age, men and beer = douche! When all is said and done Alexa and Nicole, her work pal become pretty tight. That is a part that I thought was SO out of the box. Alexa was again perfect! She moves on and finds Nolan. He is perfect and I’d like to add Collin and Nolan were pretty mature in their dealing with each other. There was a very adult aspect to it.

I wanted it to be longer. I can vision a television series of mini series out of this. It has the potential to be an EPIC series. I’m so excited to get to book 2. I am glad that the ups and down were there and not too much angst. Great summer beach read. Grab it up. I am sure giving a few copies away.

Book Description:

“There is a vulnerability there, hovering just below the surface. And I want to pick at it until I expose it. Then I want to kiss it.”

Two years ago, Emily Burnham, had an epiphany about the shallowness of her life.  And she made it her mission to become a different person…a better woman.  Out from under the controlling thumb of her mother, Emily is tasting the real world for the first time.  And she likes it.

Nixon Caldwell has served his time in the Marine Corps, surviving two brutal tours in Afghanistan. He is back home, surrounded by what he likes best…isolation.  It’s certainly the easiest way to avoid confrontation of the consuming guilt that is weighing him down.

When an accident brings Emily and Nix together, he soon learns he is not the master of his own fate. Struggling with his own pain, Nix tries to guard himself against Emily’s charms.  He wants her in his bed, but he doesn’t want her in his heart.

Having grabbed life by the horns, Emily wants it all.  But is she willing to accept just the small part of himself that Nix is offering?  Can she reach the part of his soul that he has deemed to be Off Limits?

About the Author-

M. A. George is part proud mother of two adorable children, part super top secret agent…Oops, probably just lost that job.

Writing is what keeps her up into the wee hours of the night.  Fortunately, she has a lot of energy (Read: caffeine is her friend).  She has a bit of an obsession with music (It does a fantastic job of tuning out rambunctious children while she attempts to focus).

She sincerely hopes people out there enjoy reading her work as much as she enjoys writing it.  And if anyone hears of work for a super top secret agent, she’s now available (Discretion guaranteed…).

Book Description:

 A love triangle just wouldn’t suffice; Jillian Stone had the ‘misfortune’ of getting herself into a love square– with twins, nonetheless.

 Alexander, Oliver, and Jillian were raised on a deserted island. For 12 years, all they knew were those that were marooned with them. A strong bond would link them forever. At 12 years old, they are all rescued and clairvoyant Jillian is immediately shipped off to boarding school. Ten years later, she is reunited with her twins at the funeral of Helen, the woman who “mothered” them while on the island. The innocent and childhood feelings they shared on the island…well, they aren’t so innocent anymore.  Her scrawny gangly twins are now grown men.  Oliver, the ever-loyal friend and Alexander the ultimate bad-boy, have her heart in a tug-a-war.

Enter, mysteriously sexy Professor Paul Black. He’s Jillian’s law school professor and she has caught his attention, albeit inappropriate.  All the while, Jillian’s clairvoyance is wreaking havoc on her life as visions of a redheaded man are becoming all consuming. The dangerous man in her visions is searching for her and has a big secret to share with her about her time on the island as well as about her psychic abilities. Scared for her life, all three men try to protect her, but she must chose one in order to focus on the problem at hand—the redheaded man’s secret.

 Seeing Red is a romance with some paranormal elements and some suspense and a lot of sexual tension.

About the Author

Sidney Halston lives her life with one simple rule: “The secret of getting ahead is getting started.”–Mark Twain. Or even simpler, “Just Do It”—Nike.

And that’s exactly what she did. After working hard as an attorney, Sidney picked up a pen for the first time at thirty years old to begin her dream of writing. Having never written anything other than very exciting legal briefs, she found an outlet for her imaginative romantic side and wrote Seeing Red.That first pen stroke sealed the deal, and she fell in love with writing.

Sidney lives in South Florida with her husband and children. She loves her family above all else, and reading follows a close second. When she’s not writing you can find her reading and reading and reading. She’s a reader first and a writer second.

When she’s not writing or reading, her life is complete and utter chaos, trying to balance family life with work and writing (and reading). But she wouldn’t have it any other way.
