Gabriel's Inferno/Gabriel's Rapture -Sylvain Reynard

A lot of people will disagree with me on this one, but Gabriel's Inferno was a tough read for me. There were parts I really loved, and parts that took effort for me to get through because I was bored. Those who know me know I usually read a book in one, two days max. These books took at least 3-4 days each. When I saw the reviews that they were better than Fifty Shades, I bought them immediately. I didn't hate these books I just wasn't captured.



Would I recommend this book? Eh, if you don't find anything you think would be better. I wouldn't rush to get to this book.
I gave this two chili peppers for steaminess.

On Dublin Street -Samantha Young

On Dublin street made me laugh and cry. I can't believe the author is only 26! The book was written from the point of view of the main character, Jocelyn. Jocelyn had traumatic events in her life causing her to uproot from America to Scotland. Samantha made you really feel for Jocelyn by giving bits of information about her past throughout the novel. There were steaming hot scenes, really funny scenes that had my husband looking at me funny as a I laughed to my Nook, and scenes where I found my eyes watering. I would highly recommend this book.

Hopeless -Colleen Hoover

Wow! I loved this book, I absolutely loved it! The characters in this book I felt were well developed and the turn in the story caught me completely off guard (which is a little hard to do now that I have read a ton of romance novels.) I couldn't put this book down and I was sad when it ended. There are not many "sexy scenes" but that was okay by me, the book was so engaging. I plan on looking for other novels by this author. I would HIGHLY recommend this book.

Release Me -J.Kenner

I just wrapped up reading Release Me, by J. Kenner. The book was hot. It reminded me a lot of Fifty Shades and Bared to You combined. I didn't feel the same attachment to Damien as I did to Christian or Gideon, but I still couldn't put the book down. The end left me hanging and I quickly "googled" to see if there would be more and there will be! July 2, 2013 the next book will come out called Claim Me. I will definitely be purchasing that one, and maybe in the second book I will fall for Damien. I would highly suggest this book to my friends.

First time blogger

I am new to blogging, but I love to read and figured I would start blogging about the books I have read. I should start by saying I love getting wrapped up in the fantasy, I know if Christian Grey really did exist most women would call him a stalker and be turned off eventually by his controlling nature. However, in a book it is hot! I am not going to over analyze why these things would never be okay in real life and why they would never happen, which I have seen on a few blogs. So if you don't get lost in the book and critique why things would never happen in real life, this blog is probably not for you.
