Hey everyone, the last book I have to tell you about is a sequel. (The first book,Tomorrow's Lies, was reviewed on July 28, 2016.) This sequel does give slight glimpses to refresh your memory. However, this book is NOT a standalone and picks up where Tomorrow's Lies leaves off. If you have not read Tomorrow's Lies, please do not read any further, to avoid spoilers.
Today's Promises by S.R. Grey
You would think after being reunited and out of the Lowry's evil clutches, that Flynn and Jaynie could move forward with their lives.
BUT
Unfortunately, the facility Allison is at, is over crowded.
AND
Allison may be released.
The couple is afraid that if Allison is released, she will come back with a vengeance.
The feeling of desperation can cause people to make rash decisions.
Will Flynn and Jaynie get the happily ever after they deserve?
OR
Will fate remain cruel?
I REALLY enjoyed revisiting all the characters, I felt that the author stepped up her game with this conclusion, and while I did not want to see the main characters go through anymore pain, I REALLY enjoyed the mystery aspect of this book.
(said to be released September 08, 2016)
HAPPY READING!!!

Stepbrother Dearest By Penelope Ward (Adults Only)
Hey everyone, the second book I will be telling you about is a stepbrother romance with a twist!
Stepbrother Dearest by Penelope Ward
Elec, found himself moving in with his father, his stepmother and stepsister for his Senior year of high school. Despite, his difficult relationship with his father.
From the moment Elec stepped foot in the door, his stepsister Greta's body had betrayed her. Elec was a sizzling hot, tattooed bad boy. Too bad his attitude ruined any hope of everyone getting along.
When Greta takes his cigarettes Elec decides to teach her a lesson of his own.
The two drive each other crazy.
YET
Greta shows him acts of kindness from time to time.
UNTIL
Greta reaches her limit and Elec starts to show remorse.
Will Elec drop his bad attitude and let his guard down?
OR
Is Elec just playing games with Greta?
I REALLY LOVED THIS BOOK!! I LOVED EVERYTHING ABOUT IT! I loved Greta and Elec, the story line, and the ending! There is a MAJOR twist near the end that I did NOT see coming! I had a MASSIVE book hangover after reading this book! I look forward to reading more from this author in the future!

Out of Bounds By R.S. Grey (Adults Only)
Hey everyone, I am back with another three books to tell you about! The first one is a sports romance!
Out of Bounds by R.S. Grey
Brie is one of one of the five gymnasts selected to represent Team U.S.A. at the Olympics in Rio.
BUT
As luck would have it. Her coach is unable to continue coaching the girls and his son, Erik Winter, takes over the reins. Brie and the other girls come together to train in Seattle, where Eric lives and owns his own gymnastics facility.
Brie is both nervous and excited to meet her new coach.
UNTIL
They come face to face with each other.
Erik gets caught off guard, causing him to act like an jerk.
AND
A love/hate relationship develops.
I REALLY ENJOYED this book! I LOVED all the characters. Except, June. The book was steamy with the right amount of humor. My only complaint, I wish there was more gymnastics. I felt cheated out of the gymnastics experience when it came to them competing in Rio. With that said, R.S Grey is still one of my favorite and must authors. Even though, I found this book to be a bit lacking, I will continue to read anything R.S. Grey writes.

Eternal Sacrifice By Stacey O'Neale
Hey everyone, this will be my last review of the evening! The book I have to tell you about is an epic conclusion to an awesome series! The first book in the series is The Shadow Prince. (reviewed on July 10, 2014.) This series does not recap from book to book. So, to avoid spoilers, if you have not read this series yet please do not read any further.
Eternal Sacrifice by Stacey O'Neale
Valac is on the rampage to rule all four elemental courts. He has enlisted various followers to help him achieve his goal. He has threatened to use a sacred sword, to destroy Avalon's protective barrier.
Kalin has the power to stop him but saving thousands will cost her, her life.
Rowan, the fire king, loves Kalin and cannot except that Kalin's death is their only option.
He sets out to find another way.
BUT
As he sets out to find answers, he also learns more about his family and himself.
Will the balance of power be restored?
OR
Will destruction be the fate of the world?
I LOVED this book! I LOVED this series! However, this final book was my favorite of the series! It was action packed from start to finish, there were a couple of twists that I did not see coming, everything was explained, and wrapped up nicely! It was everything I could want in a final installment!

Swear on This Life By Renee Carlino
Hey everyone, I am back to share with you the second book of the evening.
Swear on This Life by Renee Carlino
As a fellow book lover, you have probably read a book and then passed it on to a friend to read. Sometimes, the friend may be reluctant but give in at some point.
Emiline's roommate begins to gush about a book she just finished by J. Colby. Her roommate is not the only one raving about this book. The book world has also seemed to embrace the mysterious new author.
Emiline is reluctant to pick up the novel but when once she does she is totally hooked.
BUT
She is hooked for a total different reason.
As she connects to the book's main character's Emerson and Jackson, she starts to see the startling similarities between the book and her own childhood.
A childhood she never wanted to bring attention to.
Now, that a version of her past is out in the world, how will she handle it?
I LOVED this book! I loved the plot, the characters and how it was written. It is a book within a book! I am so glad I won an ARC copy of this book via a Goodreads giveaway!

It Ends with Us By Colleen Hoover (Adults Only)
Hey everyone, I hope you all are well. I apologize for not posting more often, but the summer time is always a hectic time of the year for my family and I. However, I still manage to get some reading in for time to time. I am back with three amazing reads to tell you about. The first one is a powerful and emotional read.
It Ends with Us by Colleen Hoover
If this were a perfect world two people would meet, fall madly in love who want to share that love by having children of their own. Sounds simple enough right? Well for some it is not so simple.
Lily's father was a man who was embraced by his community but behind closed doors was feared by his family. He was abusive towards her mother. Growing up, Lily vowed when she became an adult to never allow a man to abuse her and if they ever did, all it would take is one time and she would leave.
Now, all grown up Lily is living in Boston, has a brand new business and her father is recently deceased.
While out getting some fresh air she unexpected meets Ryle Kincaid.
Ryle, is an attractive and brilliant neurosurgeon, who brazenly admits he is attracted to Lily.
BUT
He is not the relationship type. Lily cannot help but wonder why that is.
After a lengthy and brutal conversation Ryle gets a phone call and he leaves.
They never expected to cross paths again. Despite not being able to stop thinking about each other.
As luck would have it, their paths did cross again.
I LOVED THIS BOOK! It certainly has the emotional roller coaster Colleen Hoover fans have come to expect from her. However, this book is a raw eye opener and unlike any book she has ever written. A lot of people are used to a villain and a good guy. This book is not laid out as simple. I LOVED the characters, I felt for the characters in different ways, and Colleen Hoover is opening people's eyes one reader at a time. She is and continues to be a MUST read author for me!
