What do you look forward to with this series? Humor? situation comedy, love, family, and food. Well this won’t disappoint you. As usual the neighbor is involved but our very devious author devised the WORST feud since the Hatfield’s and McCoy’s. Between Rory and Connor they have been banned from every restaurant, store and bar in a 30 mile radius. They start out in preschool and when I say these two got into big, I mean it. They pulled the biggest and worst pranks and sincerely tortured each other. Well then, fate brings them together, sparks fly.

I say this is another laugh so hard neighbor from hell book. I could read them all day. Now I gotta go get a hot cocoa I have a craving!

She really didn’t. Although, it would be nice to be able to go a day without someone pointing at her or being asked to leave a store or restaurant because Connor was already there and the damn establishment was one of fifty-seven that had the damn rule about not allowing both of them inside at the same time.

“You should probably make sure that it’s worth throwing out your back,” he explained with a chuckle as he walked over to the tub and started the water. It wouldn’t throw her back out since she planned on participating in the bath tub theft strictly in a supervisory capacity, but he didn’t need to know that.

“I want you, Connor,” she said, leaning in to press a kiss against his stunned lips. “I want you to take me home and give me a reason to stay in bed all day. Can you do that, Connor?” she asked in a husky voice that she barely recognized as she teasingly kissed her way down his chin and neck. When he tilted his head to the side and groaned softly, she knew that she had him. Even better, she knew that she’d be spending the day in his bed. “You’re just doing this to get out of fishing,” he said roughly as his hands landed on her ass and he moved in, using his face to move hers so that he could take her mouth in a quick, hard kiss that left her breathing hard and desperate for him in a way that actually scared her. “Does it matter?” she asked softly as she pressed down against that large bulge in his pants that her trembling body screamed for. “Not one fucking bit.”

OK where do I start to sing the praises of Tracie Banister? I am amazed this was her first book. The writing and imagination to have five YES 5 simultaneous stories all going on surrounding the Oscar race is fab! For the stores we have the b*tch of all B’s Danielle. I wanted to smack her so many times. She was the epitome of selfish and she said things that shocked me so badly I wanted to throw the Kindle. She was married to a former tv star who was struggling to get back into the business. My clippings were filled with her smart remarks. There were so many that I read and sat there thinking ÖMG she said THAT?” 

Then there was Anaya who was discovered in NY stealing a candy bar. She shot to fame, hit the bumps, fell pretty bad but dusted herself off. Her manager and the man that discovered her Robert was a dream boat. He did everything for her.

 Then Laurel! her story was so earth shattering! Her husband grrr I wanted to get him in a choke hold and pluck his chest hair off one by one. That rotten SOB. Her kids were fab, her life, and career were equally as fab. Then the poor thing was hit with panic attacks and took a break to be in the quiet suburb of Avon. Her story was gripping and really pulled at the old heart strings.

 Next is Phillipa and her love/hate Miles Nothing to say but I loved them. He was a swoon on Monday and Stab in the eyeball on Tuesday guy. Yeah I loved him big time! Everything about them was total torture. I will add that they were loaded with naughty scenes too, I may have loved him cause of that. blushing

 Last was Jordan. She was the product of a hot Hollywood couple who was known for actually acting well. She was extremely immersed in her roles and choosing them careful, not to make money.She didnt hand onto the family name for her fame. Her Mother had so many smart and funny lines I could have pissed my pants. When she comes out as being gay and ion love with her assistant Zoe her mom glosses over it and recommends a Japanese straightener for Zoe. How freakin Hollywood is that?

 Together there was a ton of drama, heat, sacrifice and lust. Everything that makes the author a “gotta read” type of author. Just gushing right now. Ooops I highly recommend this one.

Chortling, Anaya pointed to the other woman’s rear end, which was tightly packed into a pair of jeans. “Sure, sweetie. Those lumps of fat congealing underneath your butt cheeks are completely natural. Next time you get plastic surgery, don’t go to some quack in Jersey.”

“Do I need to throw you an intervention?” Lisa wondered. “I went to a really nice one at the Levines’ last week. Bitsy confronted Harold about his Twitter addiction, and he promised to get help. It was all very civilized, and the food was amazing; I couldn’t stop eating the Curry Crab Puffs. I’m sure Bitsy would give me the name of her caterer if I told her it was a family emergency.” “There is no emergency. I do not have an eating disorder and I do not need you to throw a party to tell the world that I do.”

“I forbid it.” Logan stuck to his guns. “I don’t care if this pregnancy is inconvenient or unpleasant for you, you can’t just terminate it like you would one of your personal assistants. Our baby didn’t ask to be conceived, he didn’t ask to have two selfish, screwed-up parents who can’t communicate without screaming at each other, but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t deserve the chance to live.” “What are you, a Republican now?” she queried disparagingly. “This is my body and I can do what I want with it, so give me the goddamn phone.”

“I wanna donut!” Sierra shrieked so loudly that she scared her little sister who started to cry. “If you keep eating donuts, you’re going to get fat. Is that what you want? To have cellulite by the time you’re five? To end up at Kiddie Weight Watchers?” Danielle queried irritably as she pulled her wailing toddler out of the highchair.

“You don’t have to sell her to us, darling. We already think Zoe is wonderful, although I would like to see her do something with that hair of hers. It’s a bit on the frizzy side, which is a problem for a lot of natural redheads. I think she’d benefit from a good Japanese hair straightener. They use the Yuko System at my salon; it only takes 8 hours for the process, and it’s an absolute bargain at five hun—”

Yeah, right. I like flying almost as much as I like having dental work. Or having my fingernails pulled out one by one. Or having paper cuts sliced onto my legs and then lemon juice poured onto them. Just about that much.

Color of Loneliness by Madeleine Beckett. Seriously read the quotes LMAO

This book cracked me up. I have so many clippings from it and when I say read it, I mean read it. The story is really about poor Myra and her crappy life. Just when you think this poor girl is going to bury herself in the sand, something else happens. It was her friend Susie that was too funny for words. Like how she refers to her undies as “rotten cottons” I almost did pee myself.

After the bad luck streak was at an all-time high she decides to leave Philadelphia and move into her recently deceased Grandfathers house. Everything goes wrong here too. Her Ex Trent (douche from the word go) is still trying to stalk her. Her bff Susie deflects a lot of it and is there every step of the way for Myra. I loved that part of the book. Susie is married and has boys who are little demons and a husband Jeff who is adorable. Susie is on a never ending diet and gushes day after day about a new fad diet or her need to pizza and a snicker bar. There was an endless supply of Susie diet humor too. She was priceless!

Enter Dylan, the contractor, who Susie just spouts filth about day after day. she asks Myra “did you ride the drill yet?” So freakin funny. Anyways bad things happen, strange things happen, and then Dylan happens. I say no more! Book two is introduced at the end and now I am going to research and find out when it is out.

I think this is a 5* chick lit girlie girl funny book go get it & lets support out authors who need some word of mouth press!

“Tucker was sick last week with the flu. I think he caught it at school or something. So I disinfected the shit out of everything and bragged about how I never get sick, and now…” Susie stops again to hack some more. “It just hit me all of a sudden, out of nowhere. And I’ve had vomiting and diarrhea to top it off. It’s been coming out both ends, at the same time. I’ve had to sit on the crapper with the trash can in my lap barfing and shitting simultaneously. And I’ve had to change my drawers like five times because I shit myself. No, I meant to say I’ve had to throw away five pairs of rotten cottons because no way in hell am I touching those putrid, shitty things. Instead of Jeff running to buy me drugs, he’s going to have to make a panty run,” Susie

“Hey, guess what? I weighed this morning and lost eight pounds. Oh yeah, yes sir,” she shouts gleefully. “Of course the only reason I lost that much is because I shit myself to death.

Go grab me a strainer and a trash bag.” “What the hell?” Myra shouts. “You are not using my strainer to scoop your shit.” “Dylan, the scruffy Greek god asshole, cannot see my shit,” Susie yells back. “Now hurry up.”

I guarantee you that Dylan is packing a footlong all-beef wiener with bun, relish, chili, sauerkraut and all the fixin’s included under those baggy jeans of his.

TORN by Amber Lehman.

Going out there and saying that this was one of my all time fave books. I was completely blown away! For the first time I actually wrote notes besides my kindle clippings. It was filled with so much emotion and angst. I HAVE A FEW AUTOGRAPHED COPIES LEFT

Where can I start without writing too lengthily? Well The book opens with a girl Krista who moves from Ohio to Orange County California. She is starting High School and is 14. On the first day she meets Carrie who is the first girl she sees when she shows up at 0 period. I think this is a Cali thing cause my kids did it. She is in a dance class and sort of hits it off with Carrie right away. Within a few hours she meets Brandon who appears to be Carries bf and they are making out to Krista’s embarrassment. Well it was all for show they are just really good friends. She meets Brandon, surfer, Mr rich, hot, smart and popular 16 year old. Along with Brandon she meets Ryan, Nick and Aeleise who is his girlfriend.

As they all settle into high school and get to know each other Brandon emerges as a very strong character. He is sort of intuitive and reads people well. It turns out Brandon a few really big reveals. His secrets and identity as a gay teen in the public eye as a sponsored surfer. He keeps that private. Once they hang out things happen between Carrie and Krista that leave them both questioning life, love and sex. They are now not afraid to talk and experiment which leads them on a pretty dangerous path. Several times I held my breath! In comes Aeleise who is Daemon’s sister and happens to be a hot 28 year old who teaches a small group bible study.

Many twists and turns take them from bff to hating each other, then back to friends. It is filled with so much emotion and at times it is hard to read. That is what I loved about it! Also what Krista deals with when she questions Daemon’s feelings towards her. Is he attracted to her or not? Then her and Carrie question their bond. Then the BIG OMG moment is when Brandon questions his entire life.

I cant express how glad I was that I read it. I saw some reviews that made me curse like a truck driver. I applaud Amber Lehman and as a Cali girl, she was so accurate it hurt! This is REAL life people and I will say it is by far one of the best books I have EVER read. PLEASE PLEASE support the author and go read it now!! hurry

I really wasn’t concerned. What happened had happened for a purpose. I wasn’t expecting a boyfriend out of the arrangement. Had I, then maybe it would’ve mattered to me to know the names and faces of all those before me. As it stood now, I was fine with it. I didn’t need to hear that Brandon had a list of priors that read like a roll sheet.

For act two, five boys my age went onstage — because there wasn’t an altar — and set up their drum sets, electric guitars, basses and microphones. The atmosphere resembled a rock concert as they played songs that reminded me of the grunge music popularized in Seattle. Granted, the words were different — lyrics in praise of the Lord presented in an offbeat manner — but there was nothing solemn or reverent about this service. We were sitting in folding chairs. There were no pews, nothing to kneel on. In fact, we never knelt once. Was that permissible? Where were the altar boys? Did they disappear along with the altar? Where was the holy water? Where was the incense? Where were the Stations of the Cross? Come to think of it, where was the cross? Not to be irreverent, but Jesus wasn’t hanging around anywhere. No tabernacle in sight, no Virgin Mary, no Joseph. Not even a confessional — I wasn’t all too upset about that. There seemed to be nothing even remotely holy or divine about this place. All my memorized prayers fell useless. Not one was ever uttered.

He looked at me with dry seriousness. His final words of warning were delicately wrapped in disapproval. “A friendly, gentle reminder: statutory rape is never in vogue.”

I’m bisexual, then I’m bisexual. I would never lie to you and deny I’m attracted to guys — whether it’s Nick or someone else. But it takes a lot more than good looks to hold my interest, and that’s where my attraction to him pales, next to my feelings for you — by a landslide.”

Jailbird by Heather Huffman.

I will gift a few more copies to those who have a kindle. I can email u a gift through Amazon Just cause I loved it that much!! Well this was an ARC and I read through the darn thing so fast! I admit I loved it! That being said the main reason was the fluff. Why would you not fall in love with the main character Emma? She was young had a great career, a few awesome friends, and a sad past. So Emma has her dream of meeting Mr. Wonderful. it doesn’t happen she feels her HEA is gone and she will never replace him. I think Trevor’s death took her so long to get over because that was her everything. I think that between losing her Dad at such a young age and then two years ago her Mom lost a battle with cancer, this made Emma feel the need to have a family of her own on her own. She figures why wait for “him” when she feels like nothing can match her true love, so she asks her gay best friend to “donate”. As you can imagine it has some witty and sarcastic banter. I love Emma’s best friend Casey who is engaged! She has some of the best lines. She holds nothing back and encourages Emma to give her nasty details all the time. Hilarious!

Wait I did say hilarious too soon. You know why? … here comes Aiden Fitzgerald! He works a few floors up from Emma and is a recent VP promotion recipient. He is drool, swoon, and get your panties off hot. All the girls love him, he is a man whore, a love them and leave them, and sex on a stick! So when he overhears her talking about a child, one thing leads to another and Aiden offers himself. He figures she knows the deal and won’t expect anything.

Well Aiden has a story and it is equally as sad. He has four lovely sisters and is the only boy. His Mom is deceased too and his Dad (who I love) is lonely. So you get a taste of the nephews, the sisters and the Father.

I loved the story and when I got to the end I was left there hanging. I am putting a threat in to the author asap. I need a sequel pronto. I know that the ARC was just missing the page where is says continued in …. the Proposition 2 right? I am really pretty invested in these characters. I want Casey to get her wedding and I want Jenny to date the cook at her restaurant and maybe I want a big gay wedding. So I feel like I know them and that is because is was one great freakin book!!
