Inked by an Angel by Shauna Allen‏ @ShaunaAllen101 @SPNHeather


When I saw the description “Envision Touched by an Angel meets L.A. Ink” I knew I would enjoy this book. A tattoo shop, a guy who is hotter than coals on a barbecue with the nick name Angel, sounds like heaven. Well a little bit o earth! Enter a timid, shy, and very uptight accountant named Kyle, and Jed the owner. Poor Jed, he is another hunky guy that had been treated bad by the goddess of love. Now an accountant, who is his polar opposite is the one the Michael, my Angel, thinks Jed should be with. Jed has business arrangements with the ex it is just a disaster that needs a little divine intervention.  There are so many adorable things like Michael aka Angel going to AA meetings! So freaking cute, oh wait not that AA it is Angels Anonymous!
Aside from the fear of love Jed has to deal with the fact that Kyle is not single, in fact she is engaged. She is a silver spoon in her mouth type lady and is sort of expected to marry a into a well bred family. So, that means that Angel has to go all out to pull of an amazing love story. Sounds easy right? Nah it wasn’t. I definitely enjoyed this mostly because it had that certain “cute” factor. I really enjoyed Angel and his dilemma,  the real reason why he tried so hard. Please read it and enjoy it! I want to say more, but I can’t give away the plot, you have to read it and feel the love.

Slow NO Wake by Dakota Madison @ShortonTimeBook @Tale_of_Reviews ***Review*****


slow no wake

After finding her sister in bed with her fiancé, 25-year old Lexie Wilkins decides to relocate to southwest Florida to start a new life. She is smart, pretty and has a master’s degree. Therapy is her profession. Meet her office mates and see how I think they all needed therapy! The twins, Trinity and Serenity Brad, Daniel and Ricky. I wish I could spend a few days just as a fly on the wall.

So much for Lexie’s vow for her fresh start in Florida. She came to Florida and put up her invisible sign “Slow No Wake” she wanted no drama and no waves. When she has all her enthusiasm going for her things slowly start turning towards the rocky waters of drama sea and heartbreak ocean. 

 Eddie is the bad boy, who lives next door. He helps her move in and sort of comes over every night not taking NO for an answer. Daniel is Lexie’s sweet and ruggedly handsome co-worker. These guys are opposites. Who will she choose? What happens when her sister comes to Florida? 

 A very good read. Although some topics were serious, there was a lot of humor in it too!

dateme-bn

I’m not scripting my life anymore.

I’m living it.

I’m done with the God of all Hotties.

I’m going to give my heart to the boy who I think deserves it.

The boy whose kisses are hotter than molten lava.

The boy who offered me the key to his heart.

The boy who asked me to Homecoming in a big, sexy way.

 

There are so many things to look forward to.

Parties at the Cave. Homecoming festivities. Drama Tryouts. Shopping trips to NY.

But things aren’t always as perfect as they seem.

I find out that my best friend has been keeping a secret from me.

Not that I can blame him.

I have secrets too.

But, for now, I’m going to pretend I’m just a normal girl.

I’m going to pretend he’s not still out there.

I’m going to pretend he’s not getting desperate.

I’m going to pretend I’ll never see him again.

But, I will.

And this time, I might not get away.

I’ve always written scripts for my perfect life.

But no way could I have ever scripted this.

My life is so far from perfect, it’s not even funny.

All because of a stalker.

 

I’m at a boarding school, where I have to lie about who I am.

I can’t see my family.

I’m tutoring a hottie god that tortures me with his smile.

The most popular girl already hates me.

But there’s this boy.

This hot, sweet, sexy boy.

So I’m going to stop trying to script my life and just live it.

Because who knows how long I have left.

But, I will.
And this time, I might not get away.

The saga of Keatyn continues. I admit this book made me feel a little old. Get on with what didn’t grab me is that I really wanted Abby to see her daughter. I know it is important to safety, but maybe a secret weekend or sleepover in NYC. I longed for that relationship a little. Sometimes you want to fall, and I did but three were a few too many boys in this one. I sometimes had to think to remember who was the prince and who was Dawson so I hope I am alone in that confusion.

Keatyn has no problem with being away from home, blends in, makes friends and boyfriends. She is all over the place! I wanted more stalker though. Made me wish for her to be in California again. I enjoy Hollywood stars and cant wit to see what the next book is like. I am always wanting more boy crazy girls with Prada heels!

A Girl, a Guy, a Tournament and a Challenge

The Girl: At a time when most girls obsess about homecoming and high school prom, Rainy Dey spent her senior year caring for her dying mother. So when her father drops her off at college to start her freshman year, his words of advice to his bookish daughter are to start acting like a young person and finally have some fun.

The Guy: College senior, Aaron Donavan, aka Mr. Hot-and-Knows-It, is President of the Clubhouse, a social club for the college’s most wealthy and popular guys. Aaron can have any girl on campus except the one who challenges and excites him the most—Rainy Dey.

The Tournament: Every year, the senior members of The Clubhouse engage in a golf-inspired tournament to see who can sleep with the most freshman girls. When Rainy finds out about the tournament, she believes Aaron’s only interest in her is to score points by taking her V-Card.

The Challenge: Can Aaron convince Rainy that his feelings for her are true and that she won’t be just another notch on his tournament scorecard?

You know sometimes you start “chapter 1” and BAM it hits you. You get it, feel it, want more of it! This is going to be a phenomenal book! I set up my average reading time and my Kindle says I can finish it in 4 hours Here goes! 

I can only say it was one of the most epic reads. WOW The entire premise was great, unique and enough to make me read on until I was done. I don’t like doing that when an author works so hard for so long, but sometimes you need it now.

The Katy saga is such a deep and emotional story. I know it had to be told, and it was told with such exquisiteness. *If that is not a word I made it one! 

 I loved her, her BFF Rolland “Rollo” and new friend Piper. Katy has had a rich and privileged upbringing. She is not at all spoiled. She has a few traumatic events. She finds her way through therapy back to a decent place. Rollo says “I miss the old Katy”

Katy replies “I know I promise she is still inside me somewhere, and I’m going to try really hard to find her”

Katy says powerful things and is not able to show the strong and powerful new improved Katy. When she meets Jared he is probably equally broken. One of my fave quotes “One day, I just want you to look at me with love in your eyes, despite my past, I want you to know every dirty little secret about me, and love me anyway”

Jared, his parents Dan and Patsy raise his sister Karlie who is a ballet dancer. He has a best friend Holden who is so hilarious when he fights with Karlie.

 The bond they share is amazing. The healing they share is even better. I hope that you read it and enjoy the journey that I did. When you read something that leaves you touched you must share it. This was so touching and so real in more ways than the plot. I enjoyed the tough parts as well as the tender parts. The author in my opinion is brilliant and I must share her with everyone. So get ready I will brag about her and shove the book at you until you read it, that is enough to fall in love with Micalea Smeltzer!

and I want YOU to love it TOO!

Blurb:
Orphaned at 7, with no memory of her past or the family she lost, 17 year old Skye Martin is tired of being alone and afraid. After a hard night of partying, Skye wakes up alone in an unfamiliar hotel. All she can remember is the deep voice of her rescuer and his promise: “I am safe.”
Xander has been tasked with watching Skye from afar for the past two years, in order to keep her safe from the demons that hunt her. An easy job – until a pair of red glowing eyes reveal themselves to Skye, and Xander, in a moment of weakness, is forced to break his cover to protect her.

Never good at trusting people, Skye is inexplicably drawn to Xander and the immediate bond she feels for him. However, Xander is filled with secrets and ties to her past that threaten to thrust Skye into a world she could never imagine existed…

As she begins to unravel the truth about who Xander is and the details surrounding her family, she discovers that she might just be the key to saving everything…

And, most importantly, she finds that there has always been someone by her side who would never let her fall…

Her family, a doting hubby and three little minnions, have planted their roots in the middle of Michele’s two childhood homes in Charlotte, North Carolina.
Never Let You Fall is Michele’s first novel and she is beyond thrilled to have finally followed up on a dream she has held for over 20 years! God willing there will be many many more books to follow.
