Genre: New Adult Romance
(Book 1 of 2)
-Book 2 is expected out October 1st 2013

Review: 

Don’t get me started on how I WANT the next book. I saw a promo for this and when I went to Amazon to buy it I saw people has the absolute sheer stupidity to take stars off a rating because it was a book 1 in the series. It is clear and explicit that it is a series and not a standalone read. Why be negative? I don’t understand that. The author didn’t say it is a series and book one is tied up with a little bow and perfect ending. No matter how many times I saw “cliffhanger” in the reviews I still wanted to scream. For me I totally defend the book, series and the cliffhanger. Maybe I should go through some like The Siren, how long did we wait for book 2. Oh wait Kristen Ashley cranks them out so fast and I waited for Dream Man. I didn’t see people bitch that she produced with no sequel ready either. Oh let me please mention Gabriel and his Inferno how long was that??? Give me a break and read on….

It reminded me a lot of a Kristen Ashley book. I don’t ever say that easily or lightly. The characters for example were really good. Start with Cassandra. A really young, raw, naive, jilted, smart, 22 year old and recent college grad. She has been wronged and is not the usual example of being wronged. She deals with it in her own way. I liked her style!

 Then her best friend Hillary is great. They are similar in many ways and the relationship works for me. You learn about her Grandparents, her Mother Felicia and her beginnings 

Now for the Caleb and Hillary thing; she crushed on him since, well forever  This is another reason why the supporting cast in a book is so vital. It is needed. This book has great bones, strong foundation and a structure that is now solid. 

Mark is the loser who was caught with the tramp Mackenzie in page 4. She shows up again a few times and well he does too. 

So forge ahead and let me say Logan is juicy! He is a great character who, like the others, is well rounded. He is who he is, does what he does and has no regrets. He is truthful and bold and that is why I liked the character. He has a history that is discussed and you will get the reason why he is so delicious to me. 

 

 

Last in the support arena is Oliver, Logan’s son who is 4 and Julia, his sister. Julia is a bit of a spitfire with major opinions on Logan;s lifestyle. She never hides or shy’s away from what she thinks is right or wrong. There will be a point where she really shows her loyalty to Logan and Oliver.  

  Pull yourself together Cassandra! So many times she says this and I get a laugh out of it.

I love the way the book had drama, bad dates, scary dates, good morning jog scenes, and friendship. That being said I loved it and I am giving a bunch away!

 

 

 

Author Bio


I am happily married to my husband of five years, have three wonderful children and a beautiful feline companion that keeps me company during late night writing binges.

 

My love of reading has been life long but it was in early 2012 when I was inspired to finally put pen to paper and write my first story. Since then I haven’t been able to stop, fueled purely by my passion to write a story and create characters that readers will enjoy.

 

New Adult romances are my go to books to read as well as to write. They are young, fresh and full of hope. What’s not to love!

A Fine Line by Tracee Ford @FordTracee


My Review:
Tracee Ford is so hitting a part of paranormal that I LOVE! I am the biggest scaredy cat and would never read a vampire or werewolf book. I loved this book because it was the exact amount of fright for me. It made me think and be filled with angst, all without making me sleep with a night-light! This type of book I could devour everyday. The storyline and characters were excellent! The buildup with Robin Hillard, our main character, and Dr. Matthew Gregory was again perfect. They were very similar in many ways, but Robin believed in spiritual things, her “Creator” and Matthew didn’t.

Robin is a child welfare investigator who is level-headed, smart, educated, loving and also believes in what is “beyond tangible” She has feelings and beliefs. She came through a very frightening ordeal and I won’t give any of it away, but that is why I just adored her. Her faith is tested when her and Matt move into Pikeview Manor, a very old and grand house. The house has major history and aside from knowing it was built in the 1800’s Robin didn’t research it. A few times she was told to research it and when things get really serious for her and Matt, she does. The entire restoration was dragging them down.

 

NOT going to say anything else except READ it NOW!! I can’t wait to read Undone which will be out soon!

Reality TV Trilogy by Heather Thurmeier @hthuremier


Reality TV Trilogy

Thanks to my new publisher — Crimson Romance — I’m finally able to bring you a new series! Each book is a love story that happens during filming of a different reality TV show! If you love romance, reality TV, a bit of steaminess then you’ll loves this new series!

Falling for You — Available now in digital and paperback!!           AMAZON                        NOOK                  iTUNES

Waves of Fiction says:  ”Falling for You was such a fun book.  It captured my attention from the first page and I was on the edge of my seat gripped with panic that everything I hoped for would come crumbling down for one my favorite characters!  Thrown in with my panic were laugh out loud moments and some very yummy eyebrow raises that I wish were coming my way.”  http://ow.ly/hijiq

5 STARS! “Heather Thurmeier’s voice is distinctively witty, lough-out-loud funny, and sexy. Falling for You is the perfect romance novel for anyone who’s ever found herself addicted to reality TV shows like The Bachelor… 5 stars and highly recommended — Heather Thurmeier’s contemporary romances are an auto-buy for me.”

4 STARS! “Two words describe Heather Thurmeier’s latest book: Fun and Sexy. Cute, fallible and totally relatable, I want to invite Cassidy over for drinks at my house. She is thoroughly entertaining. This book is a quick read and I can’t wait for the remaining books in Heather’s trilogy – she will make a Chick Lit reader out of me yet!”

5 STARS! “Our book club selected this book to read together and I could not put the book down the moment I started reading it. This was a very quick read and you won’t put it down until the end to find out what happens to these characters. Such a great book, I quickly bought and read Love On Landing, and Love And Lattes by the same author. They were all great. Looking forward to her new book release in February!”

Newly single Cassidy Quinn is thrilled to be a contestant on the new reality dating show The One. But her excitement turns to horror when the gorgeous bachelor turns out to be her ex-boyfriend. Seeing Brad again makes Cassidy realize she might not be as “over him” as she thought—and then she meets hunky cameraman Evan Burke.

After watching his brother lose his wife in a tragic accident, Evan vows never to fall in love. But following Cassidy around as her personal cameraman makes him question his decision, and resisting her gets harder with every sunbathing, bikini-wearing day.

Cassidy and Evan begin a forbidden affair while her ex-boyfriend tries to win her heart back one groping, awkward moment at a time. If Cassidy can manage to stop falling off horses (literally), stop falling onto her ex-boyfriend, the bachelor (yes, literally), and stop falling in love with backstage playboy Evan, she might still make it through the show without becoming a tabloid sensation.

But soon Cassidy must choose between the ex who broke her heart and the cameraman who might never love her back. For Cassidy, this reality show just got real.

 

Stuck on You — Coming February 11, 2013! 

Waves of Fiction says:  ”Heather Thurmier definitely knows how to write amazing characters. Stuck on You is another hit in my opinion and it is one of the funniest books I have ever read… Filled with awesome humor, sizzling romance, and lots of adventure Stuck on You delivers a fun story. I am quickly becoming addicted to these stories. I have to admit that I do watch a little bit of reality TV and reading about them is even more fun.” http://ow.ly/hiiC0

“If you like reality TV and funny romances, then you will *love* STUCK ON YOU!” – Shoshanna Evers, author of The Enslaved Trilogy, Pocket Books

Paige Anderson agrees to be on a new reality show called Treasure Trekkers,a show where contestants use handheld GPS units to find hidden caches filled with prizes, with her good friend Cassidy. But when Cassidy is unable to compete, Chip Cormack, the show’s producer, steps in with a last-minute replacement to be Paige’s partner—Zoe Oliver, reality TV’s favorite bad girl.

Jack Miles (aka Miles) is a mountain climber with the body to prove it. Miles convinced his climbing partner Ben to come on the show with him for one reason—to prove to Ben that they can still hike together, regardless of the fact that Ben lost his foot in a tragic accident. Miles isn’t about to let anything get in his way of winning—not even beautiful Paige.

But when Miles and Paige are thrown into an alliance with their teammates, working closely together leads to more than just good strategy. Can Paige steal Miles’ heart while surviving Zoe long enough to win the game?

 

 

 

Lost without You — Coming July 1, 2013!

Zoe Oliver never wanted to be on another reality TV show… until Chip Cormack made an offer too good to refuse. He’s guaranteed her a payday this time and a chance to redeem herself in America’s eyes. Zoe worries she won’t be able to focus as her desire for Chip grows and her strength to resist him weakens. When she learns she’ll be roughing it in the woods with Chip and without luxuries like indoor plumbing and electricity, she’s instantly on edge, feeling naked and terrified that her scars will be exposed and her secrets revealed. When Zoe’s past turns up on the show, she fears she’ll lose not only the life she’s sacrificed everything else to have, but also the affections of the only man she’s ever trusted with her heart.
