Summary:

Bullied, beaten, hospitalised. And it’s only his first day.

After the school bully puts Charlie in hospital, he doesn’t think things can get worse, until he starts seeing clouds of light surround strangers. 

Charlie worries he’s hallucinating until the mysterious Colours Institute offers him an apprenticeship and a chance at the truth. He soon wishes he was hallucinating as the truth might mean he can manipulate the fabric of humanity. 

Fighting against an enemy as ruthless as he his smart can Charlie and his new friends uncover the power he needs? And at what cost? 

Charlie might be the most interesting person you meet this year. Why don’t you find out? 

My Thoughts:

The synopsis of the book sounded amazing, I have read books that have dealt with synesthesia and have been blown away by those books. So when I read that the main character was able to see colors around people after an accident I knew I had to read the book. but…

While I was reading this I was having a hard time connecting to it. I was really hoping that I was going to love it because it sounded so unique. I got to about 50% and decided to stop because I just couldn’t get into it. I know that I got to half way but I just couldn’t read the last half.

The story in the beginning did seem a little slow. I didn’t think that it was going to go anywhere. I felt like it was lacking something more.

Welcome to SMUT UNIVERSITY! 

Jaxon Michaels is a New York Times bestseller many times over. Going against his father’s inclinations and seizing his own dreams, he is compelled to share his inspiration with other aspiring authors, and so teaches several writing classes at an Ivy League University. The most notable and popular of these is The Art of Sex… in Writing; how to write realistic and super hot love scenes! Jax is confident, gorgeous, rich, famous, oozing sexuality, and leaves his readers and students swooning.

Addison Tomms is a beautiful senior English and Creative Writing major at Columbia with high hopes of becoming published one day. She’s already written a novel in secret and is anxious for her new professor’s opinion. Addy knows most people take his class to get off, and despite feeling the effects of his charming and charismatic demeanor, and intimidated by his talent, she’s there to get an education.

From day one, Jax and Addy are drawn to each other and their written words light the other on fire. Desire explodes and gets out of control when the sexy professor yearns to help his brilliantly gifted student reach the height of publishing success, yet can’t seem to keep his hands to himself. It could mean trouble—on many levels—for them both.

Smut University is a super-steamy roller coaster of emotion and sensual overload that goes off the rails when the line between love and lust become indistinguishable. And, what happens when deception and jealousy threaten to destroy Jax and Addy’s very fragile and very hot relationship? Can Addy trust Jax… and her heart?

This novella serial is true Kahlen Aymes from cover to cover: full of humor, heart, heat… and angst! She’ll leave you gasping, panting, and crying for more. You won’t want to miss a single page of this scorching, yet very romantic story!

[Arc Book Review] Facing the Torment by Alice J. Black

Amazon / Goodreads

Title: Facing the Torment

Author: Alice J. Black

Page count: less then 100

Published: August 6^th, 2019

Publisher: The Parliament House

Genre: Horror, Gothic Romance

Received: from the publisher in exchange for an honest review

Rating:   4/5

Summary:

It all boils down to this: Peyton has been hounded by Vic Reeves to return to the funeral parlour that used to be her home, years ago. It houses so many memories, nightmares, and spirits…but as Peyton comes to the understanding that she needs to face her fears—and her past—she is thrust into a darkness so impenetrable she fears she might never escape…

My Thoughts:

This is the final book in the Soul Seekers series and I have to say that it’s been one neck of a ride that I’ve been on with Payton. I loved every minute of it. I don’t want to say to much because I don’t want to spoil the book/series so I’ll just give a brief synopsis.

This was the one book that I was most anticipating because I wanted to know what was going to happen when she finally went back home. What did happen was not what I was expecting, I didn’t think that the ghost that was there was going to be who it actually was. I was happy that she was able to see her parents again one last time and how they were able to help her out.

I will definitely be re reading this series in the future because I loved it so much. I definitely think it’s one you should all check out as well. It’s currently on KU.

[ARC Book Review] Defiance Falls by Ali Dean

Title: Defiance Falls

Author: Ali Dean

Page count: 187

Published: September 19th, 2019

Publisher: Ali Dean

Genre: New Adult

Received: from the publisher in exchange for an honest review

Rating:   4/5

Summary:

All I wanted was a little trouble. Okay, so maybe choosing Cruz Donovan’s 18th birthday party wasn’t the way to go about it. Three years ago, I fell for him. I thought he fell for me too. But when he broke it off, he took my heart and, as if that wasn’t enough, he took my best friends too.

They aren’t the same boys I knew before high school started. They’ve got all kinds of secrets they’re keeping from me. If I want back in, I’ve got to be ready to play their game. I might be a killer soccer player, but I’m not real eager to join a team when they won’t tell me who the opponent is, how to score a goal, or what rules I’m supposed to be following.

I’m in the wrong place at the wrong time, a pawn in games I don’t understand. Maybe I never should have gone looking for trouble in the first place. Is it too late to change my mind?

My Thoughts:

I really enjoyed this book. Cruz and Hazel were a great match for one another. The more they got closer the crazier it got. Hazel is a soccer player she’s strong willed, confident and very likeable. Then there’s Cruz he is swoon worthy the way that he protects Hazel and treats her. He’s also very handsome if I do say so my self.

Hazel, Cruz, Moody, Emmett, Spike and Bodhi all have a past they used to be the best of friends and one day that all changed. Hazel thinks that the guys have forgotten about her and in senior year of high school she is finding out that she really does need them yet there are some secrets that they have been hiding from her to keep her safe.

Hazel has been left out the loop long enough and she wants to get the answers to all the questions that she has. With her knowing she is more endanger then she was before.

This book kept me turning the pages because I was anticipating what all the secrets were about. The cliff hanger was a bit of a bummer but that just makes me want to read book 2 even more now because I’m dying to know what happens.

Blurb

What’s a girl to do after burning all of her no-good, cheating boyfriend’s belongings? Throw a dart at a map and start over in a new town.

I may be new to the small town of Everton, but I’m well aware that I now share a zip code with a celebrity. You’d have to be living under a rock to not know, Knox Bentley, one of country music’s biggest stars. 

When Knox wanders into my bar— careful brown eyes and broody attitude—I can’t tear my gaze away. A cheating scandal fresh on his heels is just one reason I should stay far, far away, but the closer we get, the more I realize he’s not at all what I imagined.

But being a famous musician comes with unwanted attention…the kind that tears people apart, and now it’s becoming too painful to stay by his side.

They say love is a choice, but so is leaving… 

Write You a Love Song Excerpt

“You’re killing me,” I say, then shake my head. “Actually, scratch that, you’re giving me life again.”

Her chest swells as she sucks in a breath and slowly lets it go. She cups my face and rubs her thumb across my cheek. Part of me wants to look away from her probing eyes, but I know with her I can show who I really am without judgment.

Her gentle caress continues as her fingers lightly brush my lips, and I shiver. She moves to my eyebrows, tracing their shape before circling my face and coming back to my lips.

“I could kiss you for hours.” She pecks my lips. “I want to do a lot more than kissing,” she confesses with another kiss. “But what I like most is talking to you, being in your presence.” I close my eyes to still my racing heart and feel her lips touch my forehead.

Only one other woman has ever treated me like this, and the guilt for thinking about her in this moment swallows me. I shake my head and expel a breath. If I want to move forward with Ainsley, I need to be honest with her.

“I think I should tell you why I got divorced.”

[ARC Book Review] Cowboy in Colorado by Jasinda Wilder

Amazon / Goodreads

Title: Cowboy in Colorado

Author: Jasinda Wilder

Page count: 246

Published: July 31^st 2019

Publisher: Jasinda Wilder

Genre: Contemporary Romance

Received: from the publisher in exchange for an honest review

Rating:   4/5

Summary:

It should have been simple and straightforward—business, and nothing but business. A quick trip to Colorado to scout out a location for my newest real estate development acquisition. Fly in, drive to the location, talk the owners into selling, sign some papers, and go home.

A business trip like any other, something I’ve done hundreds of times without issue. 

This time, however, I was waylaid. First by a runaway horse—and then by an angry, stormy pair of vivid blue eyes, a massive, mountainous set of brawny shoulders, a strong, powerful pair of hands, and a voice like thunder over the horizon. 

Will is a man out of another era, a man of stillness and action in equal measure—a man in complete possession of himself and his world in a way I’ve never experienced. And suddenly, somehow, he comes to possess me, my mind, my heart, and my body, in a way neither of us are ready for, and neither of us know how to resist.

What should have been a simple business deal quickly spirals out of control, becoming a struggle of life and death, a battle of hearts and passion…

My Thoughts:

This is the second book in the series and wow. I’ve said this before an I’ll say it again. I don’t know how Jasinda comes up with all these ideas for books.
–
I was able to read this book in one sitting because I was antsy to know how it was going to end.
–
This book is about two people that come from completely different walks of life. Brooklyn is born into a privileged life she’s an only child and heir to her fathers company. Her father tells her that she can have her own team and budget she heads off to Colorado. While there she meets Will, Will has always been a country boy and stubborn as they come. He runs his family ranch and Brooklyn comes along he tries to push her away because he doesn’t want to have to hear what she has to say. In doing so he can’t help but feel this connection with her. I loved the push and pull they had because there both very strong leads.
–
This book was amazing as always in the classic Jasinda way. I absolutely love her work so I definitely recommend you all to check out her books. 

Book Review: Hell at Halfingdon Asylum by Alice J. Black

Genre: YA / Teen / Horror

Received: From Kindle Unlimited

Rating:   4/5

Summary:

Peyton is asked to work on her hardest case for Soul Seekers yet as she’s called to Halfingdon Asylum to clear it of spirit energy before it’s converted into an office building. She has her reservations from the start but keeps them from Jake, her partner, as the investigation is underway. 

However, the asylum isn’t going to give up easily, and Peyton will not only need to save herself from the darkness that seems hell bent on keeping her locked inside but figure a way out of the building before it’s too late…

My Thoughts:

While reading this I got goosebumps. Payton is a recovering alcoholic, She continues to go to AA meetings this meeting how ever is the most important because she is now a year sober. While at the church she is visited by a vicar that recently passed away and didn’t want to leave. It was a quick an easy job unlike the one that she has at the asylum. While there she gets into some pretty tough situations. I’m happy that Jake came an rescued her.
I can’t wait for the last book in the series.
