Beck ~ Blog Tour

BECK ~ HARPER SLOAN
Beck is the third in the Corps Security Series ,,, this series started off great and it just keeps on getting better and better with each book :)
 
Review:


Man this is one HELL of a series ,,, If you loved Axel, loved Cage and then omg you’ll totally loved BECK :)
Do you want a good book? Do you want some amazing characters?? Do you wanna read about some red blooded alpha males willing to do anything to protect their family??? Do you like angst? Some drama? Hot sex scenes? Good times and bad times? And one hell of a roller coaster ride??? Then let me tell you this is without doubt a book for you
This book is Beck and Dees story ,,, we already know these two from the previous two books and we know about the ups and downs in their relationship ,,, well at least we think we do ,,, this book sheds some serious light over the pair of them from past present and we roll into future through the book
This book starts off pretty much around the time that Cage's story wraps up. But it goes back to the night in the pub where Lizzy see's Axel for the first time in years. Just as there life is changing so Is Dee's and Becks as that's that first time they meet. The attraction to each other is straight away. You could cut threw the sexual tension with a knife its that strong. But no matter how much Dee wants him it can only ever be sex to her. She's had to much hurt in her life to let a man into her heart. Dee has some serious issues. But cab you blame her? Her childhood was horrific, her parents are EVIL! Lets just put it this way they won't be winning any parent of the year awards any time soon.
So she wants sex not a relationship. But Beck isn't gonna take that. He wants her heart, body and soul. And he's willing to wait as long as he has to for her to realize that. And so there dance begins. One step forward and two steps back. Every time he knocks one of her walls down she builds to more back up. So she tries to much him away. But even bringing men around when she knows he'll see or find out doesn't do anything. Beck isn't going anywhere no matter what she does. Because he can see what everyone else has been so blind too. He sees her crumbling. And the constant sadness behind her eyes that never leaves her in all the time he has known her. No matter what mask of smiles she wears for everyone else she can't fool him.
Beck is the kind of guy that only exists in a dream ,,, he is hot, he is strong, he protects ,,, but most of all he has faith in his heart he follows what he knows is the truth he isn't easily pushed away and doesn't give up at the first hurdle ,,, he has the strength to get Dee through some pretty tough and dark times ,,,, he can see her for who she is even if she is trying desperately to hide it from everyone
Dee is a strong character ,,, well this is what we are led to believe ,,, when you get to know her you'll see that there are some serious demons that she is dealing with ,,, you heart will break for her ,,, always pushing never wanting to look weak ,,, there is only so much one person can take in life and to be fair Dee has more than her fair share ,,,,
Poor Dee is falling apart. Literally crumbling day by day. Ringing Beck in the dead of night crying. And more nights then she should finding solace in his body and running before he can wake. People would be better off without her.......Yeah but with Beck around he's not gonna let that happen.
SO in the middle of all of this dance or messed up relationship everyone thinks they have some stuff starts going down in Dee's job. Not wanting to get Beck involved she asks Maddox to help her out by looking into things. But this was so much bigger then she thought and ends up leaving her fighting for her life.
Poor Beck is heartbroken. Seen someone so strong crumble like that will have you crying. Seriously have tissues ready! He never once leaves her side. No matter how much he's told by his friends. When Dee finally comes around she really sees it. She has to try and open herself up. She needs to try harder to let Beck in. But in order to do that she has to tell him everything. From her childhood to where she is now. And my god is it some story :(
Dee needs to release her demons in order to move forward and this can only come by letting them free ,,, talking about them and opening up to those closest to her ,,, how is that going to work when nobody even notices anything is wrong??
Dee does it though. She opens up and finally lets love in. Things can only get better from here right? WRONG! Every relationship has speed bumps along the way. Only in Dee and Becks like its MOUNTAINS! Don't forget the thing going down in her job isn't over.......
Life sucks and this book will deal with a whole heap of different things that will confirm that statement but be assured this book isn't all bad there are some good things too
This book is so beautifully written certain scenes in particular ,,,, I love reading about Sway coz he is totally awesome and I think every girl needs a sway in their life ,,, and definitely some gold glitter ,,, he is able to brings smile to some of the saddest faces and I see him as being the human form of marmite ,,, you will either love him or hate him and man does everyone love this guy ;) ,,, although he isn't a main character I can assure you that he will always be something you'll remember ,,, even for something so small will always be the thing you'll take from these books ,,,, especially from this one :)
This book comes highly recommended ,,, this whole series does ,,, check them out if you haven't already ,,, Harper Sloan is awesome and so talented ,,,, we’re grateful for the little voices that talk to her and developed these characters ,,, they are a great addition to anyone's collection
But I can tell you something, what I can see in the future with this book is a while lot of 5 star reviews for Harper. You don't have to be Mystic Meg to see that. This books talks for itself :) <3
  


Synopsis:
**Warning** This book is intended for a mature reading**
~DEE~
I’ve always been good at wearing masks. Not letting anyone see the real me. I’m content
being the happy-go-lucky best friend. The strong willed boss. The independent woman who
doesn’t need a man.
But the truth is I’m just as broken as the rest of you. I’m terrified that all it will take is one
person to make all my carefully constructed walls crumble into fine dust. So I guard my
heart with everything I have. Determined to never let anyone get close enough to hurt me
again.
All is perfect until HE walks into my life. No… he doesn’t just walk. He struts his good-
looking, sex-oozing self-right into my space and demands that I see HIM. Making me want
what I know I can’t have.
So I did the only thing I know how to do.
I run.
But he just won’t let me go.
~BECK~
The second I see her, I know she will be mine. I see past the gorgeous smiles and heart-
stopping laughter. I see HER. She doesn’t want me to know her secrets or the past that
haunts her, but I make it my mission to find out.
To make her mine.
She can run all she wants, but it will never be far enough to stop me from coming after
her.
She’s it for me and she knows it.
She’s just too scared to admit it.
**NO cliffhanger, HEA, inter-connected standalones**
 
 
About The Author:
Harper lives in small town Georgia just a short drive from her hometown
of Peachtree City. She (and her 3 daughters) enjoy ruling the house they
dubbed 'Estrogen Ocean', much to her husband’s chagrin. Harper has a borderline
unhealthy obsession with books; you can almost ALWAYS find her with her ereader
attached. As an ex-reviewer and blogger, Harper's passion for reading runs deep. It
wasn't until 'Axel' decided to take up residence that she realized her true calling.
She started using writing as a way to unwind when the house went to sleep at
night; and with a house full of crazy it was the perfect way to just relax. It didn't
take long before a head full of very demanding alphas would stop at nothing to
have their story told.

Learning To Heal Blog Tour

 
Learning To Heal by R.D. Cole
 
 
 

Review:
R.D. Cole is a truly amazing individual ,,, her work is AWESOME ,,, you’ll love her first book in this series so obviously youll love this one too ,,, OH ,,,, MY ,,,,, GOD ,,,, it’s awesome!!!!!! There's no disappointment and you will find the right amount of angst and heart-warming story lines to keep you going and wanting to turn the pages ,,, you'll be in conflict with wanting to get through this book and find out what's happening but at the same time you'll not want it to end
This book is Jazz and Masons story and man is it a good one !!!!!
The first book in the series LTL ends on the mother of all cliff hangers. Where Jazz stands up at thanksgiving dinner and tells the world(okay just her family) that she pregnant! Yeah,everyone is shocked to their core to say the least. Then the dreaded question is asked "Who's the father?" Eeeehhhhhhhhh...... Yeah not wanting to say "Oh its just Oliver,you know my college professor" she stall's. And in the moment of panic Mason stands up and says he's the father. WHAT THE HELL????? Shocked right? Because unless its the reincarnation of Jesus,its not Mason's. But he jumps up to protect Jazz,willing to be in this with her till the end. She is floored. Why would he do this,just for her? She's oblivious to the fake that he's madly in love with her. And would do anything for her. If that means standing by her now and becoming a father then so be it. He loves her and that baby is a part of the women he loves. There's no way he could not love it. Mason has always had feelings for Jazz since the moment he saw her photograph ,,, seeing the family ,,, well Jax ,,, react so badly he steps up and claims that he is the father of her child ,,, could this be his opportunity to finally get the girl of his dreams??? ,,,, will she finally see him??
We are given some insight to the happenings before the announcement during the prologue and gives you an idea of what a scumbag Oliver is ,,, and will make you love Mason all the more knowing that even though he isn’t the biological father he is willing to take the child on.
Jazz has never seen Mason as the sexy guy that makes her tummy flutter with just a look ,,, Mason has never thought that Jazz could ever want someone like him ,,, they are both fighting to be together but at the same time neither wants to cave and tell their feelings in fear that the other won't reciprocate them
Mason steps up to the plate and does everything he can even though Jazz is a little bemused by it all ,,, He goes to her doctor appointments,hears the baby's heart beat with her and they even find out the sex of the baby together. Jazz can't get over this Mason. He's always been her best friend but this Mason is.....Sexy. Yeah she thinks he's SEXY! And with her been a walking bag of hormones,it takes all her will not to jump his bones. So thinking of a way to have her cake and eat it to,without opening her heart again,she suggests no strings attached sex. Of course Mason jumps at that. He wants more from Jazz,he wants it all. But this is a step in the right direction.
These two are opposites, they are from two different worlds ,,, yet there is something there ,,,, between them that they cannot deny
When they finally give in to what they want and things look like they are going well ,,, in walks a piece of drama ,,, set to cause problems ,,, but will they pull through??
Neither wants to be without the other but once again they fear the others response ,,, both have done things, said things they regret but how can the bridges be rebuilt?? ,,,, this is when fate walks in to lend a helping hand !!!!
There first night together shows Jazz what its really like to be seen as beautiful. He worships her,scars and all. To him she is the Sun,Stars and Moon all rolled into one. But things never stay that perfect to they? Hell no. Between Chanda(yeah I said Chanda!) Mason's overly jealous friend who wants him for herself and Ollie creeping back into Jazz's life thing's get out of control. It will keep you gripped and you will have "OH NO SHE DIDN'T" moments. Well I did. And more then once I may have slapped Chanda in my head. Hey I'm only human! We meet some new characters in this one and rekindle with some of the old ones too ,,,, and the ending ,,,,, well let's just say ,,,, I can't cope having to wait for book three :( ,,,, I NEED IT NOW!!!!!
This book comes highly recommend this book to all and you'll not be disappointed it's awesome!!!
PLUS after the way this books end's you will be dying all over again for the next book is the series. I'm pretty sure RD Cole is trying to kill me. That or make it that I'be no nails left by the time book 3 comes from making me wait :)


 
Synopsis:
"If Fools rush in, than most people in love are idiots. And I'm the biggest one of all."
-Jazz
Meet Jasmine Coleman. She's the girl that's outgoing, beautiful, and full of self assurance.
A confidence that’s forced to cover the scars she hides. When rushing into love becomes a
heartbreaking mistake the last piece of it disappears. Now she is left uncertain, weak, and
full of self-disgust. But her strength is needed now more than before.
Mason Reed is the quiet computer geek that's always the friend and never the boyfriend.
Putting his social life on hold to help his single mother has left him shy when it comes to
the opposite sex. And Meeting Jazz is no different. However being in love makes you do
crazy things and his crazy has major consequences. Especially when the truth is revealed
to others who are determined to rip them apart.
Rash decisions have major consequences. Some good. Some bad. All are life changing.
"The Truth doesn't always set you free. Sometimes it breaks you apart and leaves you in
pieces."
 
About the Author:

My name is Robin and I live in Alabama. I grew up an army brat and traveled a lot until we
finally settled down along the Gulf Coast when I was 4. My husband is 9 years younger so I
guess that makes me a COUGAR. I have a little girl who is 9 and is blind as well as autistic.
My life is not boring with them two in it. Believe me.
I have always loved creating and I would constantly draw on my walls. I love painting and
reading. Writing is something I wanted to do but didn't think I could, until I woke up at three
a.m. a few months back and started writing. Life has a way of throwing rocks at you and putting cracks in your soul. Either you can duck and cover or you can make something
beautiful from the cracks.
After that, the story took over. Even though some pieces of my life experience are within it,
it is Tru and Jax’s story now. I have truly fell in love with this story and hope you all do too.
 
 



Here is a little extra for you all to with a bonus scene ;) ,,, Enjoy :)

Bonus Scene
Mason
             Walking around the busy campus with Symone is great. Her happy enthusiasm as I point out every building catches the attention of everyone we pass. I’ve noticed more than one guy watching her and I feel protectiveness toward her even though we’ve only known each other for a short period time. Her excited voice heightens when I point out my fraternity house. Taking her inside I introduce her to a few of the guys, but since I’m really not the most popular guy at the moment we don’t stay too long. After grabbing some lunch we make our way towards the gym.
“So… Who is the lucky girl you’ve been looking for all day?”
I look at Symone who’s walking beside me. “What?”
           She shoves my shoulder with hers. “The girl that has you spacing out. Duh! I’m not stupid. Every time we pass a blond you do a double take.”
“I do not.”  I’m not ready to talk about Jazz to her yet. Even though she’s totally right. I do keep spacing out when I get to a place that holds memories of the two of us together. Or when I see a blond who’s back is turned my way, even though I heard she dropped out I’m still hoping to see her.
“Whatev’. You totally do. I’ll get it out of you.”
      “And how do you plan on doing that?” Playfully I grab her purse off her shoulder and toss it on the ground behind her before I turn and jog away avoiding her attack. When I see wide, sky blue eyes watching me from a distance everything stops; me,  noise, movement, my breathing, and my heart. We watch each other like we’re scared animals. She’s more beautiful now than ever with her long hair blowing in the wind and flushed cheeks. For the passed few days I thought about going to her and begging for forgiveness. But I’ve stalled and decided to wait until after Symone flies out in a few days. But it’s been hell not going to her to let her know what happened that night. Why I did what I did. But hell… I’m scared she’ll throw my apology in my face like I deserve. Then my dream of a future with her and the baby will be gone forever. Maybe I should just do it now? What the hell do I have to lose?
                Taking a breath I gingerly let my lips form a smile. When she returns it my world feels right again, but before I can get my legs to move in her direction I feel a weight land on my back.
“Gotta ya you turd.”  Symone laughs as she straddles my back.
                When Jazz looks from Symone to me I know I’ve lost her. Her eyes widen as I place my sister back on her feet and watch Jazz turns to walk away.
“Jazz? Please. Wait. It’s not what you think.” I yell as I close the distance between us. I notice how she’s walking in circles. Like she doesn’t know where to go. “Please Jazz. Wait.” Then my worst fear takes place when her whole body goes limp and she falls to the ground. Shoving people out of my way I run to her side and roll her over feeling relief when I see her chest rise and fall. “Jazz? Please baby.” Her eyes are open but she’s not focusing or responding to anything I say. I look up and see Tru running out of the building on the phone. Everyone else is watching with mouths wide open. Like this is a fucking circus. “Can anyone fucking help? Call 911.”
             Tru sits on the ground and places Jazz’s head in her lap before she pats her cheek gently. “Jazz can you hear me?” She looks up at me. “What happened?”
       Before I can answer I’m lifted from the ground and shoved into a tree. Jax is stares at me with nothing but hatred before he bends down to check on Jazz. I straighten before I make my way back to the girl I love and hear the sirens in the background. Jax however stops me before I can reach them. I’m feeling scared for Jazz and angry that this dick is keeping me from her. “Back the fuck off Jax.” I ground out.
“No Mason. You back the fuck off. You’ve done enough and she doesn’t need your shit.”
The ambulance arrives and the medics come with a gurney to load Jazz. I follow behind and hurry to pass up Jax, but he once again grabs me. Raising my fist I swing for the first time at one person I’ve always considered a friend. He will not keep me from her. After it connects he spits out blood then attacks. After I’m on the ground he punches me in the face before he’s pulled off. “Stay the fuck away from my sister. You lying piece of shit.” He fights off the arms that hold him away. 
“No Jax. I will not stay away. Neither you nor anyone on this whole fucking campus is going to keep me away from her. I’m not leaving her again.” I point to the ambulance that is closing the doors. “I’m riding with them. Got it.” Symone is standing besides Tru crying. “Tru can my sister ride with you?” Before I can get an answer I turn toward the ambulance doors. When they ask me if I’m family I tell them yes and she’s carrying my child. Fuck anyone who thinks differently.

Margaret McHeyzer Cover Reveal

 
Yes, Master ~ Margaret McHeyzer
 
BLURB:
My uncle raped me.
I was 10 years old when it started.
At 13 he told me I was no longer wanted because I had started to develop.
At 16 I was ready to kill him.
Today, I’m broken.
Today, I only breathe to survive.
My name’s Sergeant Major Ryan Jenkins and today, I’m ready to tell you my story.

“Master?”

Oh, Master.
 
AUTHOR BIO:
I don't do 'normal'.
I've found that the more I write, the more I like being different to other authors. I write in first
person, and I love to challenge a reader.
I take the normal and switch it around.
For me, I really enjoy getting a reaction from a reader. So if I can evoke an emotion (regardless of if
it's the emotion the reader wants) then I figure that I've done my job as an author I want to be.
I really quite revel in taking people out of their comfort zones and pushing them to read something
different.
My genre of writing is, well quite frankly, where ever my mind goes. I won't label myself because I
don't like sticking to one genre.
My goal with writing is just to take people away from whatever is going on in their lives, even if it's
only for a split second.
I'm a go with the flow sort of person and don't really take a course of action to get where I am going.
I live in the moment and don't usually worry about tomorrow because whatever life is due to bring
me, I'll be happy to accept.
I love my family and friends and will help anyway I can if someone needs it. I really don't like people
that are nasty just because they can be, I don't believe that's necessary, I mean life's hard enough as
it is!
I hope you enjoy my books, I've had a hoot writing them. There's more to come.....
Til next time.
M xx

********Sex In The Title by Zack Love*********

http://youtu.be/0UN03E9gp2g







Omg,can I just start off saying that you guys have got to read this book! It is LOL hilarious. Some of the stuff the happen's in it is UNREAL. I found myself looking at my kindle going 'no frigging way dud that just happen' while tears where rolling down my face with laughter.

This book surrounds five mid to late twenty's men.  Showing how they met,and the story of how they got to that point. It is back in the year 2000-01. With some time before hand from each blokes perspective. This book shows them coming together and forming one unit. There pose as they like to call it. Five blokes taking on the big city known as New York. On the prowl enjoying the single life before they settle down. But who they get to this point is the funny bit. And there are bits you won't be able to contain your laughter!

This book is not my normal read. I went outside the box with this. And I am so glad I did. The book been from five men's eyes was SO different. It was actually quiet refreshing. It was that good that there better be a book two or I may have to stalk the author. Just a little bit.... Soooooo on to the book at hand......

The five men we have are Evan,Narc,Trevor,Carlos and Sammy.

The book starts off with Evan though. Now Evan goes through something no man should. He not only gets fired,but then the following day gets dumped by his girlfriend......Via email. YES that's right I said email. Talk about crashing and burning. Things can't get worse though right? WRONG. He taught that before he was held up at blow point. I'm not even gonna get into what that is because I'm still trying to get my head around that one! LOL He seems like the main Character of the book even though the others are in it just as much. Maybe that's just my thinking? You'll see when reading it I suppose.

Poor Evan though has problems. He's kinda in love with Delia Nakova. Who's she I hear you asking? Well a famous actress no less! He is obsessed with her after he has more then a few run in's with her. And these run in's where not life changing. Birds didn't sing and rainbows didn't magicly appear. Well not for her anyways. The run ins are actually quiet embarrassing. BUT for Evan none of that matters. He just can't get her out of his head. Love at first meeting is what it's like. And with his been a writer,wanting to be one anyway he gets this plan is his head to win her.....Can You see where I'm going with this......?? 

BUT that's just Evan. ONE down four to go. I'll give you the run down....

Narc is Asian/American who becomes a lawyer. Who's addicted to porn. God honest truth. He will watch it anywhere and everywhere. And has an awful habit of leaving it on.....as Evan finds out more then once. He's been a lawyer to please his parents. He doesn't want this but he does it for them not wanting to let them down. But life is catching up with his until it has him in its grasp. So he's left with some choices to make.

Trevour is very swave. He is British and VERY bloody tall. He has rules for his dating. He need's a girl over 6 foot. Just like him,so as you can imagine he's limited in that department. Then he gets himself a girl. Tall,beautiful and has everything he's been looking for. Or that's what he thinks. She may actually have more then he has asked for.....

Carlos is the latin lover of the group. He is fabulous looking. Picture movie star good looking. BUT he's the virgin of the group. And he also has BAD OCD when it comes to germs. Seriously he need's help. So living in the big germy New York city should be a hoot and a half for him :D 

And finally we get to Sammy. The jew of the group. God How I loved him! He is my next favorite after Evan :) He's small,pudgy and going bauld since he can remember. So no wonder is SQ is so low(You'll soon learn what that is) He has a life plan. Play the field(when he can find girls)and start looking for wife material at the age of 28 and up. But you know life NEVER goes how you want it to. His bits in the book are outrageous! Throw in a few knock backs,a mail box conversation,a meowing vagina and hitting the jackpot and you get Sammy in all his glory!

I would urge everyone to read 'Sex In The Title'. Hell even give it to a friend or family member for christmas. This book will cheer you right up. No matter what. But maybe read it alone. After the looks I got at the LOL bit's it's probably best ;)

Back to Reality Tour


Danielle Allen ~ Back To Reality


~ Synopsis ~
Her past: Emanuel Mills was her first love. The guitar playing, adventure seeking, IT whiz was everything she ever wanted.

Her present: Tyree Barker was her last love. The cultured, educated, successful entrepreneur was everything she needed.

But when Sahara Lee’s past and present collided, a series of events occurred that changed her life forever, leaving her future up in the air.

As a college freshman, a tragic accident changed the course of Sahara’s life. Ten years later, just when she started putting her life back together, Sahara’s world was rocked again due to a similar accident.

Heartbroken and guilt ridden, Sahara fell into old, familiar habits before quickly realizing that she wasn’t the same Sahara Lee anymore. Unable to live a lonely, loveless, isolated life anymore, Sahara decided that the way she coped before wasn’t going to work this time around.

Time didn’t heal her wounds, but forgiveness might.




Review:

Danielle Allen's writing is very detailed and leaves no stone unturned ,,, this book is the second from this series and is a continuation of the first so please read the first book prior to this!!! You’ll be all over the place reading this book,,, you’ll be nervous, sad, excited, shocked, happy JESUS at one point you may even be crying! The book had so many twists and turns it really kept you on your toes. Just when you think the book is going one way.....BOOM it went the other.
So we have Sahara, and then there is Ty and Manny ,,, this story is from Sahara’s POV ,,, she loves two guys each in their own unique way ,,, As you know from book one, after something horrific happened her in college she up and ran away. She couldn't face what happened that night, the night that not only changer her life for good but also her best friend Emily and Emily’s brother Emmanuel. she feels like she hurts and ruins the lives of anyone she goes near, cares about and loves ,,, thinking it's best for them she removes herself from their lives ,,, that's the best thing for them right?
This book picks up right where book one ends. She is now in the hospital waiting on word on how Ty is after his car crash on the way to her apartment. Bennett, Ty's cousin doesn't want her there though. Well after all she is standing there with Emmanuel. Yep that's right, after all he was there when she received the news. She is so upset waiting for news, but Ty sends her away. He's so upset that she's there with the bloke she kissed on Ty. You can't really blame him. Even if he's a jerk about it. So she goes home, only to realize she has a choice in front of her. Emmanuel didn't turn up for nothing. He wants Sahara. But she's with Ty. So either way someone's heart is gonna be broken. She just can't make the choice yet...she needs...time ,,, BUT ,,, being messed up, confused and indecisive she decided to do what she does best ,,, run!! Yep just like after the accident she up's and leaves. Thinking that Ty and Emmanuel would be better off without her.
She moves to another place, gets another new job and apartment and starts over. Again.... But this time she is gonna try to start healing herself. She promised Emily she would see a therapist. Which she follows through on. And bit by bit she starts to get her head together. Don’t get me wrong she is still heart-broken over both men. But she's healing old scars that where well over due.
Emily wanted her friend to be apart of an important event in her life and it meant the Sahara couldn't hide any longer ,,, after seeking therapy she realised she needed to make amends for all of her wrongs ,,,, but will they listen??
So with everything she is learning about healing herself she decides to confront her past. She fly's back to see Ty..... She turn's up at his job wanting to talk. And his welcome is anything but warm. But she does it. Well try's to. His "You have five minutes,starting now." Isn't very helpful. So knowing her things need to be said to him,she does it another way. She has to get everything off her chest. And boy does she.
SO with him taking care of there's only one more person to confront...Emmanuel. She has to go back to her home town anyways for Emily's dance studio opening. So it's now or never. But things need to be said before she can be free of them. And lets just say that confrontation goes.....swell. But she has to say what's on her mind and then he can ignore her. Well you can blame him been mad,she did disappear again. With no phone number,or address. Just like after the accident. He told her not to run,and she did. To say he's annoyed would be an understatement. But just as Sahara thinks she's finally in the best place she's been in years....BOOM. It's all took off her. Her life is yet again turned upside down. And literally swung around. Will this girl every be giving a break????

Her relationship with Emanuel is tainted and as soon as things look good it all goes sour again ,,, maybe it wasn't meant to be!!

Her relationship with Ty is good but there is a distance and that can only make a couple stronger or tear them apart ,,, but will their love be strong enough??

Sahara FINALLY makes the decision of who she does and doesn't want to be with ,,, she loves them both so it takes time to get there ,,, you will not be able to work out which choices she will be making as this story has been written in such a way you will be continuously guessing right the way till the end
It's emotionally charged throughout the entire book and you'll be unsure of what's next to happen ,,, it's one of them where you think you know where it's going then BAM! It's off in another direction completely throwing off the scent !!
This book is recommended to EVERYONE!!!!!! And here's to more amazing read's from Danielle! :) <3
