Bared to You (Crossfire #1) by Sylvia Day

Bared to You by Sylvia Day
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

"Gideon Cross came into my life like lightning in the darkness… He was beautiful and brilliant, jagged and white-hot. I was drawn to him as I’d never been to anything or anyone in my life. I craved his touch like a drug, even knowing it would weaken me. I was flawed and damaged, and he opened those cracks in me so easily…

Gideon knew. He had demons of his own. And we would become the mirrors that reflected each other’s most private wounds…and desires.The bonds of his love transformed me, even as i prayed that the torment of our pasts didn't tear us apart..."

This book was recommended to me a while back, I was reluctant to read it because after all the hype of 50 shades I was worried this would turn out as disappointing in its bad writing even though its storyline was great. Well was I wrong?
I am so glad I finally purchased this book, it totally hooked me in, once I got started I couldn't put it down. At first I thought I Gideon was an egotistical prick. Mr Cross I am so sorry about that, I was wrong... So so wrong.. I totally fell in loved with that guy and his fucked-up-ness. Eva is perfect for him.
I got a bonus sneak at the next book in the back and I am going to have to suffer two hole ads before I can get to the store and guy it. God help them if they don't have it in stock

Dream Boy for Christmas by S. Q. Williams

Dream Boy for Christmas by S. Q. Williams
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

"After spending her entire childhood dealing with a cruel guardian while also living in an orphanage, Genesis Hales' only fantasy will finally be apart of her reality when the boy of her dreams, Adrian Parker, comes into her life.
Adrian will not only fulfill Genesis' Christmas wishes, but he will also surprise her with one thing that will change her life forever."

A sweet little short story. I would love to see more about these characters in a full length novel in the future. I want to see what life outside of Love For Days has in store for Josh, Darcy and Genesis.

Undeniable (Undeniable #1) by Madeline Sheehan

Undeniable by Madeline Sheehan

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

"Warning: This is not a "typical love story". This is an all-consuming, soul-crushing, tear-your-heart-into-pieces story. It’s intense, gritty and raw, dark and disturbing, and it doesn’t happen overnight. This is an epic love story that knows no boundaries and has no time limits. It grows and develops—with hurt, sacrifice, and heartache—over the span of a lifetime.

Eva Fox is the princess of the Silver Demons Motorcycle Club. Growing up with bikers in the club lifestyle is all that she knows. When she’s a young girl, Eva meets the reason for her existence. Deuce West is the sexy, biker bad-ass of the Hell’s Horsemen Motorcycle Club. Like Eva, he was born and raised in the club—but that’s where the similarities end. Their first meeting is innocent, but as Eva matures into a woman, their chance reunions evolve into a fit of lust and love. Fate continues to bring them together time and time again, but their twisted journey is filled with pain, betrayal, and bloodshed that could tear them apart. Eva sees in Deuce what he cannot see in himself—a man worthy of love—and Eva spends her lifetime proving to him that her undeniable love is the one thing he can’t live without. 

This is Eva and Deuce’s story. 

It wasn’t easy. 

Nothing worth doing ever is.

And love is worth everything."

What beautiful yet twisted book. It isn't a pretty romance novel... It's nasty, dirty, heartbreaking but beautiful, so fucking beautiful. Before reading this book i had read numerous reviews complaining about cheating and rape etc. it almost put me off. I am so glad I ignored them because it needed those things murder, rape, hits, cheating its all part of the MC lifestyle and this story is set in that world. It felt so authentic and believable that it felt like a biography rather than fiction. I loved it. I loved every tear I cried for the characters. I loved everytime I laughed out loud. Such a brilliant book. Now I have gushed and made myself sound like a sap I will finish up by saying..... THIS IS A MUST READ!

Hex Hall (Hex Hall #1) by Rachel Hawkins

Hex Hall by Rachel Hawkins
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

"Three years ago, Sophie Mercer discovered that she was a witch. It's gotten her into a few scrapes. Her non-gifted mother has been as supportive as possible, consulting Sophie's estranged father--an elusive European warlock--only when necessary. But when Sophie attracts too much human attention for a prom-night spell gone horribly wrong, it's her dad who decides her punishment: exile to Hex Hall, an isolated reform school for wayward Prodigium, a.k.a. witches, faeries, and shapeshifters.

By the end of her first day among fellow freak-teens, Sophie has quite a scorecard: three powerful enemies who look like supermodels, a futile crush on a gorgeous warlock, a creepy tagalong ghost, and a new roommate who happens to be the most hated person and only vampire student on campus. Worse, Sophie soon learns that a mysterious predator has been attacking students, and her only friend is the number-one suspect.

As a series of blood-curdling mysteries starts to converge, Sophie prepares for the biggest threat of all: an ancient secret society determined to destroy all Prodigium, especially her."

I did really enjoy this book but it was very much like EVERNIGHT by Claudia Gray. Boarding school for supernatural beings who have a group of supernatural hunters after them have been for centuries. I'm not going to spoil it but even the who-dun-it was the same and the romance connection between the MC. Archer is Lucas, Sophie is Bianca and even Cal reminded me of Balthazar, to be honest even the head teachers reminded me of each other too, bloody hell there was even the Lesbian roommate for crying outloud. EVERNIGHT was published first so it kinda made this story a little less original for me.
I still enjoyed it and will be reading the rest of the series in hope it goes into another direction and not where I am expecting due to EVERNIGHT series.
It had lots of laugh out load moments, so many that I had plenty of embarrassing out in public laughing hysterically and getting looked at like I'm a lunatic by stranger moments. So I struggled with how many stars to give it. Does the copyright infringement win or the laugh out loud moments win. :-/

Forever (The Wolves of Mercy Falls #3) By Maggie Stiefvater

Forever by Maggie Stiefvater
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

then.
When Sam met Grace, he was a wolf and she was a girl. Eventually he found a way to become a boy, and their loved moved from curious distance to the intense closeness of shared lives.

now.
That should have been the end of their story. But Grace was not meant to stay human. Now she is the wolf. And the wolves of Mercy Falls are about to be kill in one final, spectacular hunt.

forever.
Sam would do anything for Grace. But can one boy and one love really change a hostile, predatory world? The past, the present, and the future are about to collide in one pure moment - a moment of death or life, farewell or forever

I took me a long time to finally pick up this last book of the series... I must admit I did start it numerous times and put it down before getting past the first couple if chapters. This time was the last time and I read it in pretty much one sitting. It was a brilliant closure to the series. I wanted more of a happy ever after but I think that would of ruined its integrity at the end of the day.

American Vampire (Vampire for Hire #3) by J.R. Rain

American Vampire by J.R. Rain
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Mother, wife, private investigator...vampire. Six years ago federal agent Samantha Moon was the perfect wife and mother, your typical soccer mom with the minivan and suburban home. Then the unthinkable happens, an attack that changes her life forever. And forever is a very long time for a vampire.

Now in AMERICAN VAMPIRE, sequel to VAMPIRE MOON, private investigator Samantha Moon receives a heartbreaking phone call from a very unlikely source: a five-year-old girl who's been missing for three months. Now on the hunt, Samantha will use her considerable resources - including her growing supernatural abilities - to locate the missing girl before it's too late. And as she gets closer and closer to the horrible truth, she receives devastating news on the home front. Now with her world turned upside down, Samantha Moon is forced to make the ultimate choice of life and death.

And through it all, she discovers the identity of one mysterious man...a man she has grown to love.

This instalment wasn't as gripping as the last one. The ending was meant to be a cliff hanger but you could tell what she was going to do.... What any mother would do and the name of the next book kinda gives it a away. You can tell the author is a man even though the Narrater is a woman. She at times isn't quite believable, she is attracted to every man she meets and says a lot of things that you could imagine a man saying or thinking but nota woman. But the author is a man so I don't blame him for that. It is still enjoyable, just not always believable unless you can shut that part of your brain off. I hope she finally makes a decision over the men in her life, because I can't handle another book of umming and ahhing. I still want to read the next, so it's not that bad. :)
