The Flyaways by A.R. Hadley **REVIEW**

The Flyaways by A.R. Hadley
My rating: 5 of 5 stars


A.R. Hadley once again puts poetry to paper and her flawless writing and storytelling ability has yet again held me captive. The journey of two souls who loved fast, deeply and furiously their instantaneous connection felt with every line read....holding my breath wanting more and more. As they couldn't get enough of each other I couldn't get enough of them. I fell in love ..between the lines and I fell in love when lines were crossed even more. Love ..... is .... love. It knows no rules, no boundaries no faults. It isn't privy to justification. Kelley (Professor Nicolo) and Holly have the kind of love that knew no time frame nor boundaries. What a beautiful love story.

Let me say this....Kelley is not the romantic kinda guy, he is the blunt in your face this is what I want and I know you want it just as much kinda guy. So if you have issues with guys who are dominate a bit crude and 100% honest, you might not like Kelley. I did. Took me a minute to understand and not judge but I got it.

Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to read this book for you and for giving us Kelley and Holly's story.

Go get lost in this book tonight.

Review of Surviving Eden by Virginia Wine

Surviving Eden by Virginia Wine
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Theo (Dr. Grant) has worked very hard to accomplish all he has, his relationship with his current “girlfriend” is purely physical. She doesn’t fulllfill anything for him although he really wasn’t in it to be full filled emotionally he wanted the physical contact nothing more nothing less. Oh how I adore our Dr. Grant……..I know losing a loved one is the hardest thing you ever face, and doing so at a young age was very traumatic for our dear sweet Dr. How can he heal those wounds when he keeps trying to ignore them? Then he gets some bad news.

Eden Barnett, she has just experienced a tragic loss. Feeling alone in the loss of the ones she loved she seems to shut down her emotions. Although she has a very close friend it feels as though she never really deals with her loss. Her Uncle Vince wants to get her some therapy, all though his motives seemed well intended I still questioned his sincerity.

Eden and Dr. Grant, from day one of their meeting you knew there was that spark, you could feel it. It may have only been from across a room at a glance but you felt that! Uncle Vince sets up some therapy sessions with Dr. Grant, it’s the best thing this guy does! Lol

There are no lulls in this story from page one to the last I was captivated. The perfectly timed twists and some majorly hot... HOT sex scenes and a blooming romance it was easy to get sweeped away. I loved the storyline of these two and I loved that we get to meet some interesting characters. I am looking forward to reading more of Eden and Dr. Grant and I hope we learn more of Alex and hopefully Steel!! I highly recommend!! Go get lost in this read!

Gina Whitney Luca Book Review

Publication Date: April 5, 2015

Pyromania is an impulse control disorder in which individuals repeatedly fail to resist impulses to deliberately start fires, in order to relieve tension or for instant gratification.Damon DeLuca, or Luca as they called him. I thought of him more as Damien, the fucking devil within these walls that now is my life. Dark, broody, and deadly to any woman. Mind-blowing, soul-shaking, raw sex appeal. He was a tall statured boy with broad shoulders and a pair of green eyes that set my soul on fire. His inky black hair framed his hard, chiseled features. He had the type of body that had no business being on a seventeen-year-old. I knew that once he fully developed, he'd be nothing short of drop-dead gorgeous. As I said...deadly on the eyes...and dangerous for your heart.
My name is Allison. I met Luca through an unfortunate event when we were younger. I’m now twenty-four, and this is my story. My fucked up life. It's not a pretty one. Then again, the most interesting ones aren't...are they? This isn't your usual love story. Anything but. There are no blue skies, rainbows, or unicorns. Only him...my own personal arsonist. He had the ability to set my panties on fire, leave my body smoldering, and turn my heart into burning embers. He scared the hell out of me, made me feel. He opened my eyes to the world of twisted love. But love no less. This
scary, beautiful man stole my heart from a young, tender age and refused to give it back. Here’s our story…
This story is deep, dark, and deals with real scars and growth because of them.
*****Cliffhanger*****

Book Review by WW Blogger/Reviewer Ann Marie

I must start off with this is going to take you on a roller coaster! You have been warned! I absolutely LOVE Gina Whitney’s characters, and Luca does not disappoint. If you love a good heart wrenching story of young love, finding it, falling in it, having your heart broken and then having it pieced back together to be shattered again…..this right here is for you. My heart raced at times, I felt so sad for Allison she really goes through it. Luca, I know in my heart he is a good man, sometimes good men make really bad decisions. You will also meet Ollie, I think he comes from a good place not sure yet.

Archer, he is another one you will meet and well, honestly I have questions about him. But this story is all about Alli and Luca, *sighs Luca…….What Luca does to Allison is unforgivable, it truly is. I know that she is heart broken I felt her pain. But I also know that she will live, she will get stronger and Luca will regret every single thing he did wrong, hell he may not even survive his own hell. Will Allie survive her heart break? Will Luca survive his own hell? Will Ollie finally win over the love of his life? Gotta read it!!!

*On a side note I noticed some reviews complaining about editing yes there are some typos, but I swear I didn’t think they were a big deal and hell there is probably ten in my review (lol) I don't know, kuddos to you for having the courage to put yourself out there Ms. Whitney! I love your stories!! Keep them coming!!

Synopsis

Zach Love Anissa's Redemption Release Blitz

Anissa Toma fled war-torn Syria after narrowly escaping the massacre of her Christian family by Islamists. Fortunate enough to rebuild her shattered life in New York City, the young refugee gained admission to an elite college, where she excelled. Her beauty, brains, and purity soon captured the interest of two powerful men: Michael, an activist working to establish Antioch, the first Mideast Christian state, and Julien, her professor and one of the city’s wealthiest bachelors.

As Anissa's saga continues, the refugee-turned-rising-star must navigate between Michael and Julien, while trying to help her surviving relatives and other vulnerable Christians in Syria. As she gets closer to both men in a complex and evolving love triangle, can she unlock Julien's traumatic childhood to open up his heart? Or will Julien find greater solace from his nightmares and other demons in the sessions with his intriguing therapist? What will Michael do for Antioch and for Anissa, and what will Julien's role be? How far will each person go to help Anissa's remaining family and other persecuted Christians at risk in Syria? Find out in this stunning sequel to "The Syrian Virgin".

Excerpt

“It’s OK, Anissa. We don’t need to rehash that incident now. I’m just reminding us both that – even though you are the most angelic woman I’ve ever met – you’re still human,” he added with a gentle smile, as he lightly put his hand on mine. “So I’m still taking a risk by sharing this with you.”

“I understand that,” I conceded.

“Good. So before I take that risk, I need your most solemn oath that – whatever happens between us – you will never repeat what I’m about to uncover for the first time ever... ” His stare seemed to penetrate my eyes, probing deep into my interior. With so much solemnity surrounding his revelation, whatever it was, I almost didn’t want him to tell me anymore. “Because once I tell you this, there’s no going back.”

I took a hard swallow and braced myself to receive something that I could never share with anyone. “I swear to you, Julien, on the memory of my blessed parents, and on the future of my people, that I will never tell a soul.”

He nodded slightly, as if to acknowledge my vow, and took his hand back. He let out a deep breath, and his hands began to fidget a little, as if he was trying to decide where and how to begin. I put my glass down on the coffee table, wanting to concentrate as much as possible on whatever he was about to say. After a few moments of silence, he finally spoke.

About The Author

Zack Love graduated from Harvard College, where he studied mostly literature, psychology, philosophy, and film. After college, he moved to New York City and took a corporate consulting job that had absolutely nothing to do with his studies. The attacks of September 11, 2001 inspired him to write a novelette titled “The Doorman” and heightened his interest in the Middle East. A decade later, that interest extended to the Syrian Civil War, which provided the backdrop for his latest work. In late 2013, Zack began releasing his unpublished works of fiction and became a full-time author. He has published comedy, psychological and philosophical fiction, and romance. Zack enjoys confining himself to one genre about as much as he likes trying to sum up his existence in one paragraph.

Brooke

I’ve come from a privileged life and an even more privileged upbringing. My parents taught me right from wrong and everything in between… except I wanted the gray area. I wanted to live life on the edge with the possibility of falling over. I didn’t care about the consequences because I had no heart…

I left that on the floor of my parents’ bedroom door, shattered.

And never went back to pick up the pieces.

Devon

Family first.

I learned the meaning of the word hate.

I learned that life is a battlefield and I stood frontline.

I learned that praying doesn’t work and God doesn’t listen.

And I learned how to be a man…

All at the receiving end of my father’s fists, my mother’s tears, and my sisters screams.

You can’t run away from your past…

It will always find you, especially when you’re asleep.

Hidden behind the walls of
Unit, Vermont is what many believe to be a religious cult. However, inside
these walls lie the secrets to why Unit may be one of the most beautiful
towns around. Residing inside the gates are the descendants of Mother
Nature, who help keep the balance of Earth. 

Among these descendants, Xaviera Anderson reigns as the Princess to Unit.
Her life was much the same, until today, her eighteenth birthday. Today is
different because she's to be Matched with one of the Unit males who her
parents have chosen for her. Once Matched, Xaviera has to go through a
decision period. She must decide if she wants this life or

leave Unit powerless to be a normal human. 

It is not until she's tested by the ones she trusts that Xaviera questions
her faith in people and that of Mother Nature.





***This is for an audience over the age of 18 due to its sexual nature***

Today is my birthday.

Today is my twentieth birthday.

Today is the day I meet my Matched.

Those were my first thoughts as I opened my eyes. Then, I needed
to throw up.

I raced to my bathroom and became sick. I kept my head in the
toilet until I felt a cold wash cloth on the back of my neck and hear my mother
laughing at me.

“Well, it seems strange, but twenty three years ago I was in the
same position when I was about to meet my Matched,” Mom joked.

“I think I’m dying.” I breathe out lifting my head.

“I doubt it, my dear.” Mom rolled her eyes at me, helped me get
to my feet and led me to the sink.

I brush my teeth and wash my face trying to regain my
senses.

B N Toler Author Where One Goes New Release Plus Review

I
was never one to believe in spirits—until
six
years ago, when a bone-chilling accident changed my life…forever.

My
name is Charlotte, but most people call me Char…and I have a
special gift. 

I
talk to the dead. 

Make
no mistake, I can’t summon them. I’m only able to see and speak
to the spirits that linger when they’re unable to crossover.
They’re somehow weighted to the world with unfinished affairs. And
for the last six years, I’ve relentlessly used my gift to help
their lost souls.

But
it’s come at a price. My life is dark. Feeling despondent, I’ve
begun to give up. And in helping the dead, I’ve realized I haven’t
allowed myself to live. With no money, no place to go, and most
importantly… no hope, I’ve decided there is only one option—to
end it all.

But
fate is a funny thing. One minute, I’m about to leap to my death,
and the next, I’m saved by Ike McDermott. The strong, striking
soldier stopped me from putting an end to my despair. He’s the kind
of man that smiles and brightens an entire room. Sweet and gentle.

He
is my savior. 

And
he’s dead.

We’ve
made an agreement. He’ll help me find a place to stay and a new job
if I’ll help him with his unfinished business so that he may
crossover.

Ike’s
unfinished matter involves his twin brother, George. George has been
falling apart since Ike’s death and Ike has not been able to compel
himself to crossover in peace until he knows George will be okay.

When
I agreed to help, little did I know that I’d fall in love with the
charming folks of Bath County, and…Ike and George McDermott.

Now,
as both brothers own equal parts of my heart, I am faced with a cruel
and unfair predicament. In saving George, I must let go of Ike. 

But
how does one let go of half of their heart?

First let me say that if I could give a book more than 5 stars then Where One Goes would get a 10 from me!

Touching and hauntingly beautiful story!

I am not really sure where to start with this review. I think this is one of the most emotional and compelling books that I have ever read. The feelings that the author pulls from you will hit close to home for just about everyone.

This is an expertly woven story of life, loss and most importantly the courage it takes to move on. I will tell you right now this book is now in my top 5 of all-time favorite stories. “Where One Goes” touched my soul in the most moving and beautiful ways that it will echo in my heart forever.

A quote that I loved:

“Moments come and go, quick flickers in time. Yet those moments can have the profoundest impact on our lives. Either we seize them, and wield them to our needs, or we let them go.”

Char, Ike and George ripped me apart in the best of ways. I fell in love with both Ike and George just as Char did. If you had the chance to say a final good bye, would you? Would you believe in the possibility? With Char you will learn to believe in the impossible and wish for it with all of your heart.

Author B N Toler is amazing and has the most profound way of reaching our hearts and souls that just leaves you breathless. I will cherish this story and think of it often.
