THE COINCIDENCE OF CALLIE & KAYDEN

For Kayden, suffering in silence was the only way to survive. If he was lucky, he could keep his head down, do as he was told, and make it through the day. But one night it seemed like his luck -- and his life -- might finally end... until an angel named Callie appeared just in time to rescue him.

Callie has never believed in luck. Not since her twelfth birthday when everything was taken from her. After the worst was over, she locked up her feelings and vowed never to tell anyone what happened. Now, six years later, she continues to struggle with the painful secret that threatens to consume her.

When fate lands Kayden and Callie at the same college, Kayden is determined to get to know the beautiful girl who changed his destiny. Quiet and reserved, Callie still fears letting anyone else into her world. But Kayden is certain that Callie has come back into his life for a reason. And the more he tries to be a part of her life, the more he realizes that, this time, it's Callie who needs to be saved... 

My Review

I am sitting at my desk blinking at the ending of this book. I have very mixed emotions, this book was a roller coaster ride. I have not decided my feelings. It was depressing, like really depressing... I may have to reevaluate.. maybe give it some time before I decide how I really feel. The Coincidence of Callie & Kayden is definetly not a quick easy read and it does NOT leave you feeling good inside O_o [image error]

Stygian's Honor (Breeds #27) by Lora Leigh

Stygian's Honor (Breeds #27)

by Lora Leigh

4.07 of 5 stars

Window Rock, Arizona, is the last known location of Honor Roberts, who vanished when she was just thirteen. It was her only sanctuary from the Breed research that would surely have ended in her death—one such insidious experiment should, indeed, have killed her. That she lived is both a miracle—and a great mystery.

Stygian’s mission is to find Honor Roberts, no matter the cost. Now, with the help of Liza Johnson, assistant to the chief of the Navajo Nation, he is closer than ever to his goal. But will the discovery of Honor Roberts mean the destruction of the mating heat that has developed between Stygian and Liza? 

My Review

Jul 10, 2014

Our H/h are Sygian and Liza. Liza is a mentally and physically strong character. She doesn't allow people to push her around. Her interaction with Breeds is amusing. When they "Mate" she has a meltdown and the typical response of DENIAL! The steamy sex scenes are great as always. ** Something to mention, Lora Leigh adds random details to her stories and tries to slip them by the reader, and perhaps if I had not read 27 previous books maybe I wouldn't have noticed. BUT it is slightly infuriating when major parts of history are changed to suit the current book being written. EX: Weapons are illegal now? interesting

Nash (Marked Men #4) by Jay Crownover

Nash (Marked Men #4)

by Jay Crownover 

Will their past determine their future?

Saint Ford has worked hard to achieve her childhood dream of becoming of nurse. Focused on her work and devoted to her patients, there’s no room for love. She doesn’t need a guy making waves in her calm, serene life—especially when he’s the unforgettable hottie who nearly destroyed her in high school. Dark, brooding Nash Donovan might not remember her or the terrible pain he caused. But he turned her world upside down... and now he’s trying to do it again.

Saint has no idea that Nash isn’t the cocky player he once was. Uncovering a devastating family secret has rocked his world, and now he’s struggling to figure out his future. He can’t be distracted by the pretty nurse he seems to meet everywhere. Still, he can’t ignore the sparks that fly between them —or how she seems so desperate to get away from him. But the funny, sweet, and drop-dead gorgeous Saint is far too amazing to give up on—especially since she’s the only thing in his life that seems to make sense.

When Nash discovers the truth about their past, he realizes he may have lost her heart before he could even fight for it. Now, Saint has to decide: is Nash worth risking herself for all over again?

This book was Sad... ALOT..
Poor Nash was so beaten down what with finding out about his dad in the last book. *sigh
Saint was a godsend for him, even after their somewhat sordid past. She went to high school with all the guys but she remembered him as a handsome cruel boy. And that REALLY messed with her head. They had ALOT of sh*t to work out. Saint tried to resist the longstanding crush she had on Nash, but inevitably caves. 
It was great to see her walls come down and I enjoyed this one.

Cant wait for ASA's book!

Dangerously Happy by Varian Krylov

Dangerously Happy

by Varian Krylov

creating innovative music that makes his soul sing, he settled for a degree in software, a job in a cubicle, and a spot in a generic band with his buddies.

And he's always been straight. But when he's seduced by magnetic local literary luminary Dario, Aidan must decide whether to keep playing it safe, or succumb to a ravenous passion and a nourishing love unlike anything he's experienced before. Will he find the courage to go after real happiness if it means admitting he's in love with a man?

Their journey together isn't easy. Sometimes it isn't safe. Even if Aidan has the courage to admit he's in love with Dario, can he endure the repercussions of the traumatic event in Dario's past?

This novel has mature content and is intended for readers over the age of eighteen. Although this is a story about two men falling in love, there are extended, explicit sex scenes, including some BDSM, m/m/m and m/m/f scenes. There are references to sexual violence which may be a trigger for some readers, although there is no graphic depiction of rape in the book.

Great book. I enjoy M/M books that don't focus on how awful discovery and coming out can be. I know it can be terrible, but I don't necessarily want to read how awful people can be, I want to pretend that is not the case. This was a great read for me.

Rowdy (Marked Men #5) by Jay Crownover

Rowdy (Marked Men #5)

by Jay Crownover

After the only girl he ever loved told him that he would never be enough, Rowdy St. James knocked the Texas dust off his boots and set out to live up to his nickname. A good ol’ boy looking for good times and good friends, Rowdy refuses to take anything too seriously, especially when it comes to the opposite sex. Burned by love once, he isn’t going to let himself trust a woman again. But that’s before his new co-worker arrives, a ghost from the past who’s suddenly making him question every lesson he ever learned.

Salem Cruz grew up in house with too many rules and too little fun—a world of unhappiness she couldn't wait to forget. But one nice thing from childhood has stayed with her; the memory of the sweet, blue-eyed boy next door who’d been head over heels in love with her little sister.

Now, fate and an old friend have brought her and Rowdy together, and Salem is determined to show him that once upon a time he picked the wrong sister. A mission that is working perfectly—until the one person that ties them together appears, threatening to tear them apart for good.

Really enjoyed Rowdy! I loved Salem, they were a great match and I just loved her personality and style. She just popped right out of the book for me! I especially loved the parts of the book about their childhood together and drawing he made for her that she put made into a tattoo years later *Sigh Can't wait for Asa's book!

Abduction by Varian Krylov

Abduction

by Varian Krylov 

For years, college student Devan Astor has penned erotic stories based on her dark fantasies, but when she's abducted, she is faced with the real terror of being at the mercy of a cruel stranger. She flees, but in the remote cabin where she takes refuge, will she encounter a danger even more frightening than the kidnapper who is still hunting her? At the end of her ordeal, will she be left scarred by the experiences that so closely match her own fantasies, or will she discover fulfillment she never imagined?

I have a lot of feelings about this book. Mostly disturbed would be the primary emotion I feel. At times the book was good, but for the most part,I just felt extremely uncomfortable. There is a line that crosses from sexually erotic into morbidly creepy and that is where this book led me into. I wish I would have never started to read this book.

Obsidian (Lux #1) by Jennifer L. Armentrout

Obsidian (Lux #1)

by Jennifer L. Armentrout 

Starting over sucks.

When we moved to West Virginia right before my senior year, I'd pretty much resigned myself to thick accents, dodgy internet access, and a whole lot of boring... until I spotted my hot neighbor, with his looming height and eerie green eyes. Things were looking up.

And then he opened his mouth.

Daemon is infuriating. Arrogant. Stab-worthy. We do not get along. At all. But when a stranger attacks me and Daemon literally freezes time with a wave of his hand, well, something... unexpected happens.

The hot alien living next door marks me.

You heard me. Alien. Turns out Daemon and his sister have a galaxy of enemies wanting to steal their abilities, and Daemon's touch has me lit up like the Vegas Strip. The only way I'm getting out of this alive is by sticking close to Daemon until my alien mojo fades.

If I don't kill him first, that is.

ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS BOOK! The Lux & Shadow aspect leaves it open for WAY more excitement! I like that the main character is a Blogger (My Blog is better than your VLOG) Hello, Hilarious! The Characters are all so unique and I absolutely Love Mr. Tall Dark and Moody ;)

A Hunger Like No Other (Immortals After Dark #2) by Kresley Cole

A Hunger Like No Other (Immortals After Dark #2)

by Kresley Cole

Acclaimed author Kresley Cole introduces a sizzling new series with this tale of a fierce werewolf and a bewitching vampire—unlikely soul mates whose passion will test the boundaries of life and death.

A mythic warrior who'll stop at nothing to possess her...

After enduring years of torture from the vampire horde, Lachlain MacRieve, leader of the Lykae Clan, is enraged to find the predestined mate he's waited millennia for is a vampire. Or partly one. This Emmaline is a small, ethereal half Valkyrie/half vampire, who somehow begins to soothe the fury burning within him.

A vampire captured by her wildest fantasy...

Sheltered Emmaline Troy finally sets out to uncover the truth about her deceased parents—until a powerful Lykae claims her as his mate and forces her back to his ancestral Scottish castle. There, her fear of the Lykae—and their notorious dark desires—ebbs as he begins a slow, wicked seduction to sate her own dark cravings.

An all-consuming desire...

Yet when an ancient evil from her past resurfaces, will their desire deepen into a love that can bring a proud warrior to his knees and turn a gentle beauty into the fighter she was born to be?

In the beginning of this book I was questioning whether or not I would like the heroine because she seemed very weak and timid. Thankfully I learned not too far into the book that she was part vampire part Valkyrie and through hard trials throughout the book she became stronger and more self reliant and you have to like a girl for that. I really enjoyed this book the h & H we're a great match and I absolutely loved the world that kresley Cole has created and I cannot wait to read more in this series ! I have already begun the next book and I've already got the next 4 audiobooks waiting patiently in my queue!

Gabriel's Mate (Scanguards Vampires #3) by Tina Folsom

Gabriel's Mate (Scanguards Vampires #3)

by Tina Folsom 

After Maya is turned into a vampire against her will, vampire and Scanguards bodyguard Gabriel is charged with protecting her and finding her attacker.

Gabriel has never guarded a body as perfect as Maya’s. But while the sexual tension between them rises and the rogue vampire closes in on them, Gabriel can’t allow himself to give into the desire he feels for Maya. He fears to fully show himself to her despite the intimacies they share - afraid she will react like all other women when she discovers the horror he hides.

Will she run from him when she discovers his secret, calling him a monster, a freak, a creature not worthy of her love?

Caution: graphic and explicit sex scenes - not for the faint of heart.

I really enjoyed this one,just like I did with the previous two of the series. I was somewhat intrigued by the double package *wink wink This story revolves around Gabriel and Maya. Instead of going back to NY City he stays in the city, and she is attacked. Eddie rescued her and brings her to Samson's place. Gabriel and crew are asked to help Maya finish turning (intriguing to say the least) and catch the rogue Vamp that left her to die/turn alone. Of course Gabriel is immediately drawn to her. This book was pretty good. I felt at time it was somewhat obvious what was happening, but these sexy warriors couldn't take off their rose colored glasses. Altogether though, It was an enjoyable read.
