<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In case you haven't noticed, I've been in a bit of a book lull and this book was the perfect one to pull me out of it! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">This book. This book brought out every emotion in me from the very beginning. I actually caught myself holding my breath and at times had to put it down for a few seconds to collect my thoughts before diving right back in. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I loved Lautner from his first appearance as the naked pool guy and even more as the book went on. I was completely destroyed when Sydney's job was up and their time together came to an end. Though I enjoyed the other characters, these two were it for me! With a few twists of fate and a lot of anguish my heart hurt for these two. I can honestly say that I loved the ending and am happy with how their story turned out. It was perfect and undeniably the best "what if" that was!</span>Teahoneyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16564743808134329898noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6565986040426573601.post-14160298789933999262016-07-07T15:37:00.000-04:002016-07-07T15:37:54.351-04:00Hush (Black Lotus #3) - review<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I read Hush about a month ago and I'm still disappointed in the final book of the Black Lotus Series.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">After reading Bang I was completely addicted! To say that I loved Bang is an understatement. It was awesome, intense, different and kept you on the edge of your seat, not to mention the cliffhanger, ugh! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">And then there was Echo. Good but nothing as good as Bang. I swear the series just went completely downhill slowly. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I hate to write a bad review especially since I love EK Blair but it just wasn't where I saw this series going at all. I can't wait to see what Ms. Blair delivers us next! </span>Teahoneyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16564743808134329898noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6565986040426573601.post-80925887866846373202016-07-07T15:03:00.002-04:002016-07-07T15:04:03.314-04:00The Big O - review<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">If you are looking for a fun and fabulous read, this is it! The Big O truly delivers in more ways than one!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This book is full of Os beginning with Olivia Olander and Officer Oren O'Brien. She is a 24 year old virgin and first grade teacher who has crossed paths with this sexy cop! They have an undeniable chemistry and their relationship is full of fun and a few Os!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I devoured The Big O in one sitting! I laughed and could appreciate the humor and heart of the story! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">HJ Bellus has definitely surprised me in a good way with this little gem! Can't wait for more of the Virgin Diaries!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Leap by M.R. Joseph was a great stand alone book featuring Mack and Rinny! You will fall in love with their story from the very beginning and get sucked into each and every bump, twist and turn along the way!</span><br />

<b>LEAP by M.R. Joseph</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>- SYNOPSIS -</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
What if you had no idea your “future” lived beside you your whole life?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
What if that person was also your best friend?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
What would you do when you finally realized it?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
MacIntyre “Mack” Cooper and Corrine “Rinny” Blanchard have known each other since birth. Growing up on the South Shore of Long Island, living next door to one another and their parents being best friends, meant growing up together was unavoidable. Their bond made them inseparable.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
What Corrine didn’t expect was the attraction she began to feel towards her best friend as the two grew older.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As Corrine’s feelings evolve over time and tragedies transpire, she must put her feelings for Mack aside and continue to be just his best friend- unconditionally- when he needs her the most.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
However, what happens when the person you love most in the world is taken away without warning just when you need them the most? Would you give up hope or would your love keep hope- and him alive?!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
No one knew Rinny like Mack did. No one ever would. Mack’s advice to her was when life takes a turn, and your faith is tested and your dreams seem out of reach, sometimes you just have to take the leap.</div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">I stop and spin around, the sudden movement almost causing me to fall. I grip the bottle tighter. Can’t spill the champagne. I’m going to need every ounce to drown my sorrows.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.56; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">The guy grabs my elbow, keeping me upright.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.56; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">I stare at his big hand, then follow his arm up to a broad shoulder and a face so handsome it makes my heart ache.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.56; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">“You saved the champagne,” I tell him. He grins, the smile changing his face from handsome to devastatingly hot. “You look sorta familiar. Have we met before?”</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.56; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">“Probably in your dreams.”</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.56; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">I touch his light brown hair, which is flipped up in the front. “You have cute hair.”</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.56; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">“I have a lot of other cute parts,” he flirts. “Wanna feel them all?”</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.56; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">I chuckle. “You’re funny. Did you really just call me Hotass?”</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.56; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">“I call ’em as I see ’em.”</span></div>

<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.56; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">He grabs me again, this time planting his hands firmly on my hips.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.56; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">“I bet you’re good in bed,” I blurt out, imagining those strong hands guiding me on top of him.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.56; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">“Only one way to find out,” he says with a smirk.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.56; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">What is with that smirk? Is he as fucking hot as I think he is?</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.56; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">“I’m gonna need to be drunker for that,” I say.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.56; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">“Way to kill my ego—and my hard on,” he says seriously.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.56; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">I lock eyes with him. “You’re teasing me.”</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.56; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">“Maybe a little.” He grins again. “So, back to my first question. Where are you sneaking off to?”</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.56; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">“Not sure. Over here somewhere—away from everyone.”</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.56; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">“Not in the mood to party?” He grabs the champagne bottle and takes a slug.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.56; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">“Let’s suffice it to say I’ve had a rough week. Do you know why I’ve had a bad week?” I ask. I mean, I’m pretty sure everyone in the world has seen the Ashlyn Roberts sex tape, despite Cade’s efforts to get it taken down.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.56; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">

<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.56; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">“Really? Do you not get on the Internet?”</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.56; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">

<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.56; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">“Why not this week?” I hold my hand up in front of his cute face. “Wait, don’t answer that. Just come with me.”</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.56; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">“Where are you going?”</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.56; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">“I don’t know. That’s the problem—with my whole life, really.” I give him a pout and look into his warm, brown eyes. He has the kind of eyes that make me want to curl up in his lap and let him pet me.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.56; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">He touches my nose. “If you’re leading, Hotass, then I’m following. If only for the view.”</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.56; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">“You can walk next to me.” I grab his hand, leading him down the path and away from the party.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.56; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Suddenly, I realize I’m holding his hand.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.56; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">And it feels—good, natural, warm. He’s a walking contradiction. I can’t decide if that smirk just makes me one-night stand horny or if I want to keep him.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.56; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">When we get to a grassy clearing under a large tree, I say, “This looks like a good spot. Here, you spread out the blanket. I’ll hold the champagne.”</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.56; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Once our spot is ready, he helps me sit down.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.56; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">“Wow, the view up here is gorgeous,” I say, looking out over the grounds of the country club that sits on a cliff in northern California.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.56; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">“It is,” he says. “You can see the ocean, the stars, and can still hear the music from the wedding.”</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.56; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">“Here’s to gorgeous views,” I say, raising the bottle in the air and looking more at him than the view. With his gorgeous smile, hot body, and pretty face, he’s quite the sexy package.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.56; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">I take a gulp of champagne then pass it to him. He takes a drink and hands it back.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.56; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">“Sure you haven’t had enough already?” he asks.</span></div>

I’m just getting started. Tell me why you weren’t on the Internet. You may have been the only one in the world who didn’t see me at my worst.”</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.56; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">He hands me his phone. “If you want me to see so bad, why don’t you show me?”</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.56; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">I shake my head. “No! I don’t want anyone to see! I was naked. Doing things. It’s really embarrassing.”</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.56; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">

Maybe you could reenact it for me.”</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.56; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">

There must be something brighter in your future.” I say it with confidence, as much for him as for myself. As thrilled as I am for Harper and Maddox, their wedding sort of depressed me because I’m jealous. That’s what I want. A sexy guy who will love me no matter what.</span></div>

He’s the oldest brother in the Summer Boys. I went on tour with him. We traveled all over the world together. He had a carnival set up on an estate in England for my birthday, just because I said I wanted a funnel cake. We escaped from his crazy fans in Paris on a motorcycle, and he took me to this little macaroon shop, where we drank wine and learned how to make them. I’ve never had a guy do such crazy, over-the-top romantic gestures. Then, exactly nine days ago, the ex-boyfriend, Luke, decided he wanted me back. I said no thanks. Last weekend, Zach and I were in Vegas when a sex tape of Luke and I found its way to the Internet. Tonight, Zach broke up with me because”—I start to cry—“I’m ruining his image.” I sigh dramatically and then spill my guts about my life. “And if that isn’t bad enough, I’m currently filming a project and I absolutely hate my costar. Actually, that’s not right. He hates me. He says stuff that sounds polite, but is really a backhanded slam. When I can’t take it, I tell everyone that I’m going to my dressing room, but I really sneak out back and get high just to calm the fuck down. And I’ll eat healthy at craft services and then sneak in my dressing room and eat crap snacks. And, sometimes, I say I’m going to workout, but I really drive around and look at houses. I’m a house whore. I want a house—no, I want a home. I keep leasing places, but none of them are right. I’m on the beach now, and I hate it. It’s where Luke and I lived, and I just need to be somewhere else. But I have a lease, and my manager says it’s expensive, and I can’t just leave. My publicist is a bitch and probably had a hand in the whole sex tape thing and was probably fucking my ex while we were still dating. My mom hates me unless she needs money. And, sometimes, I wish I could leave the house looking like crap. Sometimes I just want to drive through, get a burger, and not be photographed. And, sometimes, when I tell someone I work with that I respect their opinion, I’m yelling fuck off to them in my head. And, sometimes, I just need a hug.” </span></div>

BLURB
</div>
<br />
<div dir="ltr">
I met my true love when I was twenty-seven. He was handsome, charming, witty, and irresistible. Jayden Monroe came along when I was struggling with
indecision and made things simple, turned monochrome into vivid color, and forever altered my perspective on life.
</div>
<br />
<div dir="ltr">
I was not naive enough to believe in happily ever after, but with Jayden, it seemed possible . . . until I realized something wasn’t quite right.
</div>
<br />
<div dir="ltr">
You see, I met a man who would be anyone I needed him to be, and after I found out that fact, I knew it would be impossible to walk away. His disorder,
however, would change everything I ever thought about love and what it truly meant to accept someone for who they are.
</div>
<br />
<div dir="ltr">
This is not my sob story; this is his success story

EXCERPT
</div>
<br />
<div dir="ltr">
“Jayden,” I said in warning.
</div>
<br />
<div dir="ltr">
“Okay.” He let out a long breath. “It’s like a tidal wave that’s impossible to stop. I just get sad and a little scared. It’s not clinical, but it’s rough.
I feel like everything’s wrong. Nothing will get better. You know, hopeless.” I nodded as I felt the discomfort he was feeling from telling me. “It doesn’t
happen a lot, once or twice a year, and it doesn’t last long. It’s not even really a symptom of ADHD. I don’t know. I guess my racing brain just gets tired
and I shut down. It’s all about the chemicals in my brain. You know what ADHD is, right?”
</div>
<br />
<div dir="ltr">
“I’m beginning to think I don’t,” I said honestly. “I started to look it up the other night and then your mom called.”
</div>
<br />
<div dir="ltr">
“My mom called?”
</div>
<br />
<div dir="ltr">
“Yes, we are going to a barbeque Saturday.”
</div>
<br />
<div dir="ltr">
“No shit,” he said, smiling.
</div>
<br />
<div dir="ltr">
Jayden picked up a sponge from the side of the tub and poured some liquid soap on it to suds it up then began rubbing my leg with it. “She’s going to love
you, Hilary.”
</div>
<br />
<div dir="ltr">
“Oh yeah, how do you know that?”
</div>
<br />
<div dir="ltr">
“I know her.” He grinned.
</div>
<br />
<div dir="ltr">
Jayden’s sponge drifted over my stomach as he crept closer to me. Still working his sponge, he managed to lift me by my arms, pulling me into his seated
lap. I felt his growing hardness as I wrapped my legs around him. His muscled arms firmly around me, he used the sponge on my back as he stared into my
eyes. “I missed you.”
</div>
<br />
<div dir="ltr">
“You didn’t have to,” I protested, looking away. I didn’t want to cry again. I didn’t want him to think of me as weak. I wanted him to be able to trust
that I could handle it.
</div>
<br />
<div dir="ltr">
“Look at me,” he ordered gently, gripping me tighter as he continued to bathe me. “I wasn’t there.”
</div>
<br />
<div dir="ltr">
I nodded. “I’ll live. I . . . You didn’t tell me about that part.”
</div>
<br />
<div dir="ltr">
“Do you have any idea how hard it is to explain to the person you are falling for that they might not want to reciprocate your affection because you may on
occasion have an uncontrollable, explosive temper tantrum? Or that you may pop off with inappropriate comments at any point in time that could alienate
them? Oh, and don’t forget the controlling, OCD tendencies with a small, short-lived side of anxiety and depression. Or better yet, how to explain you
weren’t listening to something important they were trying to convey because you were too busy figuring out the difference between jelly and jam.”
</div>
<br />
<div dir="ltr">
“Just like that,” I answered, knowing it wasn’t that simple.
</div>
<br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">MY REVIEW: Let me start by saying that I am a huge Kate Stewart fan so I jumped on the opportunity to read this book and I'm so happy that I did. Loving the White Liar was not your typical love story. Yes, it's full of love, steamy scenes and great characters but it also deals with real life issues, conflict, angst and struggles.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Hillary and Jayden meet at the apartment complex that they live at and instantly have a connection. Though Jayden struggles with ADHD, he appears to have it under control at first. After a few months together, Hillary realizes that may just be a little white lie. The two of them go through ups and downs over the course of their relationship and even hit a breaking point where their love is truly tested.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">If you are looking for a new read, definitely pick this one up! </span><br />

They lie.<br />

But on Day 22, she would have given anything for the sweet slumber of death.<br />
Because on Day 22, she realizes that her only way out means certain death for one of the two men she loves.<br /><br />A haunting tale of passion, loss, and redemption, The Paper Swan is a darkly intense yet heartwarming love story, textured with grit, intrigue, and suspense. Please note: This is NOT a love triangle.<br /><br />A full-length, standalone novel, intended for mature audiences due to violence, sex and language.

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><b>Excerpt </b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">I was still peering out of the stateroom window when Damian came in. He stopped in his tracks when he saw me. For one full, glorious second, he wasn’t in control. His gaze swept the length of my legs, over the hip-hugging shorts, and lingered on the swell of my breasts under the scandalous top. Ha! He wasn’t immune after all. He caught the smug look on my face before I could wipe it off, and his eyes narrowed.<br /><br />Shit.<br /><br />I took one step back for each one he took forward, until I was jammed up between him and the wall. God, he was intense. And deliberate. And he could say things with his eyes that made my knees tremble. One side of his face was bruised and distorted from where I’d hit him. He grasped both my wrists in one hand and pinned them above me. Every part of me felt flush with the heat emanating from his body, even though that was the only point of contact. He hooked a finger in the ‘V’ of my blouse, tracing the dangerously low cleavage. His touch was so soft, it was barely discernible.<br /><br />“Skye?” He seemed hypnotized by the rapid rise and fall of my chest.<br /><br />I swallowed.<br /><br />“Don’t play with scorpions unless you intend to get stung.” He yanked the neckline apart.<br /><br />Round, glass buttons popped onto the floor and rolled around like eyeballs, astounded by the sight of my bare flesh.<br /><br />“We’re harsh and predatory and full of venom.” He gnashed his teeth at me and ripped my blouse in two.<br /><br />He tore off a strip and bound my wrists. Then he used the hanging trail like a leash and led me to bed. “You’ve been trying to get a rise out of me for days. Now that you have my attention, what are you going to do?” He leaned forward, so close that I fell back onto the mattress, trying to get away from him. <br /><br />“Or is it that you want me to do all the work so your pampered pussy gets a taste of the other side, but you can tell yourself you didn’t have a choice?” He crawled up over me, slowly, until we were nose to nose.<br /><br />I felt like hell was about to consume me. I could hear the men outside, gearing up to fill the tanks. Would they hear the sound of my screams?<br /><br />“Would you like me to invite them in?” Damian secured my wrists to the bed post. “Do you really think you’d be safer with them instead of me?” He tore off another strip, giving me the chance to scream or yell or shout for help. When I didn’t, he tied it around my mouth.<br /><br />He sank back on his heels, kneeling between my legs, and ran a finger from my neck to the front clasp of my bra. I stopped breathing. He moved on, trailing over my stomach, until he got to the band of my shorts. He toyed with the tab, enjoying the start-stop effect it had on my heart.<br /><br />“Such a frightened little bird,” he said. Then he yanked my legs around his hips so I was flush with his rock hard arousal. “You should know better than to provoke me.”</span><br />

<b><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">MY REVIEW: </span></b><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">After being stuck in a reading slump for a little while, Leylah Attar comes back with another book that I just completely devour. I loved everything about 53 Letters to my Lover and couldn't wait for The Paper Swan and surely it did not disappoint.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">The Paper Swan was unique, it was dark, it was intense, it was heartbreaking and it was beautifully perfect. The story will draw you in and take you on a ride from the very first page. This book is full of secrets, lies, revenge and redemption.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Leylah Attar is by far one of my new favorite authors and she just solidified that with her second book. You do not want to miss her books!</span><br />

<b>Author Bio and Links</b><br /><br />Leylah Attar writes stories about love - shaken, stirred and served with a twist. When she's not writing, she can be found pursuing her other passions: photography, food, family and travel. Sometimes she disappears into the black hole of the internet, but can usually be enticed out with chocolate.<br /><img alt="Displaying leylah attar button.jpg" class="aLF-aPX-J1-J3 aLF-aPX-aLK-ayr-auR" height="320" src="https://mail.google.com/mail/u/1/?ui=2&ik=4cff6ba0f4&view=fimg&th=14eda45173b88daf&attid=0.3&disp=inline&safe=1&attbid=ANGjdJ_XChESo_IgIwtQb5IsgmOoNDy92a56PLUFwiRs75ZOtOrgNqfzaudfyjvq6TP9UshILRxhY7-Dwb0w8bljnCHrMP7DSiVfO0oR7niTmgu3vO8VSLv5X1Pc9KQ&ats=1438686188872&rm=14eda45173b88daf&zw&sz=w1566-h620" width="320" /><br /><br /><b>The Paper Swan Book Links</b><br /><br />Amazon ➜ <a href="http://amzn.to/1erRcxW">http://amzn.to/1erRcxW</a><br /><br />Barnes & Noble ➜ <a href="http://bit.ly/1LErAem">http://bit.ly/1LErAem</a><br /><br />Kobo ➜ <a href="http://bit.ly/1MJrnFg">http://bit.ly/1MJrnFg</a><br /><br />iBooks ➜ <a href="http://apple.co/1gPjxjn">http://apple.co/1gPjxjn</a><br />

insider.</strong></span></span></span></div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span

ready to rock... </em></strong></span></span></span></div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">Toni Nichols set aside her dreams to
raise her little sister, but now she's reaching for the stars as the creator of a
revolutionary interactive biography about Exodus End. She’s on tour with
the rock band to immerse herself in their world, but how will she ever gain the trust
of four veteran superstars who've been burned by the media before? Nobody
said this was going to be easy. Then again, good things can come in hard
packages.</span></span></span></div>

lives for the rush of playing his bass guitar before thousands of screaming fans.

his next thrill in extreme sports. So why does a sweet, innocent journalist get his
heart pumping and capture his full attention? Is Toni the real deal or just digging up
dirt on his band? Logan’s eager to rock Toni’s world and roll her in
the sack, but when she starts to get too close to his heart, she takes her insider look

<div>
<div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">“Have a seat, Toni,”
Dare offered. He stood and took a gym bag from her hand. He set it on the floor next
to the spot he’d vacated, making it clear that Toni should sit next to Logan on
the sofa. Logan loved the guy. Such a thoughtful son of a bitch. Toni’s dark
eyes, hidden behind a pair of thick-rimmed glasses, scanned the interior of the bus
as if searching for refuge. Apparently the seat next to Logan was not it. Dare plopped
himself down in the only available recliner and extended the leg rest, as if he had no
intention of moving for the night.</span></span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">“Th-thanks,” Toni
said, pushing her glasses up her nose with one trembling
hand.</span></span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">Logan wasn’t sure what she
was so nervous about all of a sudden. She’d seemed perfectly at ease when
they’d been interacting with their fans. Perhaps she’d taken his
comment about a lamb in a den of wolves to heart. He’d only been teasing,
but he found her skittishness endearing in a world where most women threw all
inhibitions to the wind when in the presence of any member of his band, much less
all four of them.</span></span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">The bus rumbled as it rolled
forward. They were on the road again. Toni’s hands flew out as the
unexpected movement threw her off balance.</span></span></span></div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">She plopped down beside Logan,
perching on the edge of a cushion as if the sofa’s back was made of shards of
glass. Logan was pretty sure she was looking for the emergency exit. Her gaze
settled on Butch, who was standing next to their driver and running over a strict
schedule detailing how to get them to their next show in time while making a
promotional stop between venues. Their schedule never had an inch of give. Their
manager, Sam, was a genius when it came to getting the band the most exposure, but
he had the tendency to believe that because they were a metal band, they were
made of iron. They didn’t require useless things like down time and
rest.</span></span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">“So tell us more about this
book,” Dare said, which was apparently the exact right thing to say to Toni,
because her unease evaporated instantly.</span></span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">“Have you seen the new
interactive electronic textbooks?” she asked, her eager gaze moving from
Dare to Max to Steve.</span></span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">Logan was very conscious of the fact
that she didn’t look at him once. He’d thought their attraction was
mutual, but maybe not. He scooted several inches closer to her because he saw
something he wanted and wasn’t one to sacrifice his personal needs for the
greater good.</span></span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">“Textbooks?” Steve
asked. “Like for school and shit?”</span></span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">“Yeah, that’s usually
where textbooks are used,” she said, a teasing grin on her lush lips. When no
one laughed, her face fell. Logan forced a guffaw about five seconds too late. That got
his bandmates laughing. Not at Toni’s understated joke. They were laughing
at his blatant stupidity. Nothing new there.</span></span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">“I can’t say
I’ve even seen a textbook since high school,” Steve
said.</span></span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">“These new interactive ones
are amazing. Each topic has videos and pictures and links. It presents the
information in a way that gets students who are used to constant entertainment
excited about learning.”</span></span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">“So you’re writing a
textbook about us?” Dare asked, brows drawn together in a confused
scowl.</span></span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">“What kind of textbook
would that be? A manual on mayhem and debauchery?” Toni cringed when
no one laughed at that joke either.</span></span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">Logan guffawed five seconds too late
again. He was going to have to pay really close attention to what she said to figure
out when she was joking. He didn’t think she lacked a sense of humor, she
just looked serious. She’d definitely fit in better at a library than at standup-
comedy night.</span></span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">“The publishing company I
work for designs and distributes these interactive textbooks,” she said.
“Samuel Baily approached us to make an interactive book about the band, the
first of its kind. He’s very forward
thinking.”</span></span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">That got the band laughing.
“You might say that,” Max said. “Sometimes he’s a bit
too forward thinking. He’s got every minute of our schedules booked for the
next eighteen years. He thinks we’re robots or
something.”</span></span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">Toni’s eyes bulged.
“Eighteen years?” she muttered under her
breath.</span></span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">Surely she knew Max was joking, so
why did she look so unsettled? Wondering if he could make her blush again, Logan
scooted a few more inches closer to her. His knee brushed her thigh, and she yanked
on her skirt. Other than her hands and face, not an inch of bare flesh was showing.
He wasn’t sure exactly what she was trying to conceal. Maybe she
wasn’t open to his attempts to seduce her. Which made her a challenge.
Which, like her tits, he couldn’t resist. Or maybe she had a nice boyfriend at
home. His loss.</span></span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">“Speaking of robots,”
Steve said. “How are the prototypes of our androids
coming?”</span></span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">“Good until they tried to
replicate my dick and ran out of materials,” Logan
said.</span></span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">Toni’s sudden intake of
breath made him grin. <em>That</em> shocked her? Seriously? Too
easy.</span></span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">“If they ran out of materials,
it had to be due to Max’s giant forehead,” Steve
said.</span></span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">“Or your enormous
feet,” Max countered.</span></span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">Toni grabbed a pad of paper out of
her bag and started writing furiously. Logan leaned against her shoulder to read
what had her so excited. She was writing down their conversation. In the margin,
she wrote: <em>Keep video camera close at hand when all band members are
together. They’re hilarious.</em></span></span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">He was close enough to feel her
body heat and inhale the sweet fragrance of her fruity shampoo. He wondered if she
tasted as sweet as she smelled.</span></span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">“For the record,”
Logan said in her ear as he pointed toward her notes, “I was the one with the
big dick.”</span></span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">Toni leaped from the sofa as if it
were on fire. Her gaze darted from one guy to the next, and she pushed her glasses
up her nose with the back of her wrist. God, he wanted to take those glasses off, take
those clothes off, and do things to her. Naughty, devious, delicious
things.</span></span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-
serif;">“Um . . .”</span></span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">The twin bumps poking against her
shapeless turtleneck drew Logan’s
attention.</span></span></span></div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">Hard nipples? Did his crassness turn
her on? That was all the encouragement he needed to behave inappropriately.
Visible nipples also meant that her bra was not padded. There was so much win in
that, he should have her name engraved on a
trophy.</span></span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">“What’s
wrong?” Logan asked. “I won’t bite. But I will nibble. And suck.
And lick.”</span></span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">She stared at him with her mouth
agape and her eyes wide. Her nipples strained against her sweater, begging him to
do all those things and more to the tips of those luscious
melons.</span></span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">She glanced down at her tits and
immediately crossed her arms over her chest. “Is, um, there a bathroom I can
use?”</span></span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">“At the back of the
bus,” Dare said, nodding his head toward the end of the
corridor.</span></span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">“Don’t take a dump in
there,” Steve said. “We stop at rest areas to do that
business.”</span></span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">Face flaming, she sucked in a deep
breath, turned, and sprinted to the back of the bus. She fumbled with the closet door
and when it popped open, a stack of towels that had shifted during transit tumbled
out and pummeled her in the face.</span></span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">Logan climbed to his feet to rescue
her. He decided to take it easy on her for the moment. He wouldn’t want to
traumatize her so much she decided to leave. They both bent to pick up the same
towel at the same time and bumped heads. They jerked apart and rubbed their
heads in unison. Toni looked up at him, her brown, doe-like eyes watery with tears.
He wasn’t sure if they were tears of pain or humiliation, but seeing them in
her eyes did strange things to his chest. He wasn’t sure why it was suddenly
tight.</span></span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">“It’s okay,” he
said, deciding that though it was fun to tease her, he’d better tone it down a
bit. She obviously wasn’t used to it, and he didn’t want to harass a
woman who wasn’t receptive to provocative flirting. He hadn’t
intended to upset her, just wanted to have a little fun and get under that
conservative skirt of hers. “I’ll get the towels, Toni. You go ahead and
do your business.” He opened the bathroom door for
her.</span></span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">She lowered her hand from her
forehead to reveal a large reddened bump.</span></span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">Logan winced and leaned forward to
press his lips to the lump. She sucked a startled breath into her chest. Shit. There he
went crossing the line again.</span></span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">“Sorry,” he
murmured. “I always kiss boo-boos.”</span></span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">“I have a pimple on my ass
that needs kissing,” Steve called.</span></span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">Logan closed his eyes and shook his
head. “One of the things you should consider stressing in your book is how
little <em>fucking privacy</em> a man has while on tour with his
band.”</span></span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:12px;"><span
style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">“I can include that,”
she said, “but I think fans are more interested in the size of your dick.”
She backed into the bathroom. “I know I am.” She bit her lip before
closing the door in his face.</span></span></span></div>

<b>Synopsis</b><br />
<br />
Every life has a different path full of sharp turns, smooth curves, and steep drop offs.Hollis Murphy has a plan—college, career, boyfriend, love, marriage, family. A predictable, normal life. She’s on track until an outside force causes her to crash and burn. They call it an accident, because that’s the only word they know to explain what happens to her. It helps everyone move on with their lives, except for Hollis. She holds on to the belief that she’s been targeted for a reason. <br />
<br />
Risher Stevenson is intelligent, caring, sweet, and the hottest boy Hollis has ever laid eyes on. He fits perfectly into her original plan for a normal life. Everyone loves him. Benton Daniels is intelligent, caring, sweet, and the bravest boy Hollis has ever met. He doesn’t fit into her life but gives it purpose and makes it extraordinary. Everyone hates him.<br />
<br />
One is bullied. One is tormented. All are judged. How will it STOP? <br />

<b><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">MY REVIEW: </span></span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Once I saw that Alison Bailey had a new book coming out, I jumped on the chance to read it! After reading and loving her Perfect Series, I knew this author was one that I would continue to add to my Must Read List.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Stop! was a book like no other. It had twists and turns and kept me wanting more the entire time. What I loved about it was the raw, real life issues of dealing with college, coming of age and figuring out who you are while trying to keep true to yourself. With all of the current controversies today, this book really puts things into perspective. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">If you read one book this year, make sure it's Stop! The characters are great, easy to connect with, and makes you feel like you are living their lives with them. Alison Bailey has outdone herself this time and I'm thankful to have been a part of this blog tour!</span></span><br />

<b><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Excerpt</span></b><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">“Name?” she said, impatiently. I was so flustered that for a second I’d forgotten who I was. “Hollis Murphy.”<br /><br />She scribbled something on a spreadsheet and handed me a packet with my name and the number two hundred ten typed out on the front sticker, which I assumed was my room number.<br /><br />In a flat bored voice, she said, “Everything you need to know is in the packet. Should you have any additional questions or needs after reading the information, please ask your RA. Have a productive semester. Next!” <br /><br />Clutching the envelope to my chest, my gaze shifted back down, and I walked quickly out of the office.<br /><br />As I turned the corner, a loud deep woot! jerked my attention down the hall. I took one step before crashing full force into something solid and warm. Stumbling back, I dropped the envelope. Once my balance returned, my eyes focused on a gray T-shirt with cut off sleeves, stretched across broad shoulders. When I glanced down in search of my envelope, I couldn’t help but spot the narrow hips and round ass covered in black basketball shorts. As I squatted to pick up the envelope, a tanned forearm came into view. My gaze roamed up to find the arm was covered in bulging muscles.<br /><br />“Oh god, I’m so . . . sor…ry,” I stammered, my cheeks heating with embarrassment.<br /><br /> “Here ya go,” a deep voice said.<br /><br />Reaching for the envelope, my gaze inadvertently shot up to the warmest green eyes ever created. His dark brown hair was cut short on the sides, longer on top, and tousled. The perfect amount of scuff peppered his strong jawline, with deep dimples framing a sexy lopsided smile. The air was immediately sucked from my lungs. He wasn’t just hot, he was boy band hot. A deep chuckle drifted down before I realized he had stood up and was extending his hand to me.<br /><br />Oh boy! I get to touch him. <br /><br />I slipped my hand into his and felt an immediate jolt of electricity. The muscles in his arm twitched. He felt it too. “Thank you,” I said, as he helped me up. <br /><br />“I’m Risher Stevenson.” <br /><br />He was actually introducing himself to me. It had become a habit not to look directly at anyone, especially a stranger. I automatically angled my head down and to the left, to hide the messed-up side of my face. But those green eyes locked me in place. <br /><br />“Hollis Murphy.” <br /><br />“Nice to meet you Hollis Murphy.” <br /><br />“Sorry again about running into you. I need to do a better job at watching where I’m going.”<br /><br />The tip of his tongue slipped between his lips before they formed into a slight smirk. Just as he was about to speak, his name came barreling down the hallway. <br /><br />“Rish! Get your ass down here. We’ve got a ton of boxes to haul in.” A blond-haired guy was standing at the end of the hall. <br /><br />“I gotta go finish helping my friends move in.” I nodded. <br /><br />Risher took three steps before turning back toward me. “Don’t do too good of a job.” My eyebrows squished together in confusion. <br /><br />“At watching where you’re going. I hate to think I won’t get rump bumped again.” He winked before jogging away. <br /><br />I Sasquatched those shoulders, those hips, and that ass all the way down the hall.</span><br />

understated their beauty, and Toni took understatement to a whole new level. And her rack? God, he

under that turtleneck sweater. He planned to find out really soon.</span></span></span></div>

Today Best-Selling Author Olivia Cunning writes erotic romance centered around rock musicians.<br />
<br />
Raised on hard rock music from the cradle, she attended her first Styx concert at age six and fell
instantly in love with live music. She's been known to travel over a thousand miles just to see a
favorite band in concert. As a teen, she discovered her second love, romantic fiction -- first, voraciously
reading steamy romance novels and then penning her own. </span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><b><i>SYNOPSIS:</i></b></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Everyone in Sandy Cove knows that
Willow Taylor and Max Vincent are like oil and</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">water. They live to torment one another
and if they survive being in the same room together, it’s </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">nothing short of a miracle. Sure, Willow is rich, blonde and
beautiful and Max is an achingly hot and </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">talented up and coming rock star—but that just makes it easier for them to hate one
another!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Until one night. One drunken night. It was
just supposed to be a night of celebration after each of their best friends’, Harlow and Cruz, were
reunited. But a few hours of civility leads to one night of </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">unbridled, earth-shattering, cataclysmic sex. It doesn’t help that
the details are sketchy in their minds </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">because the off-the-charts after effects still linger. One thing is clear…that night changed
everything. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">From that moment on, sabotaging each
other’s hook-ups was their primary goal until a truce is made. </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">A pact. No strings attached, no feelings, just more of what their
bodies crave whenever they see one </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">another. They both get what they want and no one gets hurt. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Until someone does. Until love and
tragedy gets in the way. The heat between Willow and Max is </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">undeniable but will that spark of desire be enough to sustain them
through the pain and heartache </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">that threatens them?</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">MY REVIEW:</span></b></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Stumbling In is Book 3 in the Shore Series by MR Joseph and it features Max and Willow's story with a bit of Harlow and Cruz for good measure! I honestly look forward to this series each summer! It's the perfect beach read!</span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">As we know, Willow is Harlow's best friend. She's edgy, blunt, rich and beautiful and after a drunken night with Max, the hot, talented, musician, the two of them vow never to speak of it again. Though their chemistry is undeniable, the pair want nothing to do with each other. After sabotaging each others dates, Max and Willow make a pact to just have no strings attached sex and to keep it a secret from the rest of the gang. When tragedy strikes, feelings come out and nothing will ever be the same.</span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Without giving anything away, this book reminded me of my own tragedy and took me back ten years. Tears were flowing and I truly felt Willow's pain. Once again MR Joseph has delivered an awesome read! Can't wait to see what she comes up with next! </span></span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<div style="margin: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">I go to
her and place my hand on her shoulder, and she turns around and I’m faced with the most unexpected
thing that I think has ever happened. Willow turns around and grabs handfuls of my shirt and pulls me
to her soft, wanting lips. She kisses me, and it’s just not a kiss that breathes lust but it breathes the fire
of passion, of meaning. It makes my hair stand on end and leaves the skin beneath electrified. The soft
motion of her mouth with mine, the scent of her hair and the taste of her tongue dancing inside my
mouth, spins me into oblivion. There’s more to this kiss. I feel it in my bones. I feel it in my soul. She
kisses me like we are music. We are the rhythm joining together with the notes and the melody. I grasp
the back of her head and thread my fingers in her hair softly. I deepen the kiss and I reach the point
where I swim in this moment so deep that I don’t want to come to the surface…</span><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"> </span><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">and that’s when she pulls
away and I know I’m fucked. </span></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; min-height: 14px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"></span><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I’m so
fucking fucked.</span></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; min-height: 14px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"></span><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">She
holds her lips with her long, slender fingers. Her eyes find mine and I’m still lost in whatever that was. I
can’t even ask her because I can’t even speak. It wasn’t the normal wanton kiss that happens between
us when we just use each other. No, oh no, this was something else. </span></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; min-height: 14px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"></span><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">“Willow…”</span><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"> </span><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">She holds up her hand to stop me.</span></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; min-height: 14px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"></span><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">“Let’s
just leave it at that, Max.”</span></span></div>
<div style="min-height: 14px;">
</div>
<div style="margin: 0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I walk
past her slowly as I hear the relentlessness of the bus’s horn and slide open the door to her room. I turn
around and she’s already back to leaning on the rail. Her body turned to the calm waters. The sun shines
down on her bare, bronzed shoulders and the wind picks up and blows her hair around again. It’s the
last time I’ll see her in person for a while and after that kiss, my head and something else right at this
very moment doesn’t want it to be the last time. It’s not the right time to analyze what that kiss was.
Maybe it was a goodbye kiss. A proper send off. The end of whatever we were to each other. Was it a
blessing for me to go and see where it goes with Cora? What was that? I’ll tell you what it was. The
unexpected.</span></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; min-height: 14px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"></span><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">“I’ll
miss you, Willow.”</span><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"> </span><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">Not being so sure she can hear me, I say it as I walk out the door. I leave her with my brain
consisting of mush and my lips already feeling some sort of loss. </span></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; min-height: 14px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"></span><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Most of
all… a lot to think about.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I'm a book nerd turned writer who loves
the 'Happily Ever After' mixed with a bit of suspense, drama, </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">and the occasional cliffhanger! My love of books started me on my
writing journey. I began writing my </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">first book in July 2012 and since that time I have created 2 series. The first series 'The
Reunion Series' </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">debuted in
November 2012 and two books followed. My new series 'The Shore Series" debuted
in </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">March 2014 and
claimed Best Selling status shortly after the release of the first book. There will be 6 </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Shore Series books in all. I’m also the author of
the Romantic Comedy, 39 & Holding. I live in </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Philadelphia with my adoringly handsome husband, and pretty cute kids if I
may say so myself. You </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">can
always find me with the Kindle glued to my hands or in my car with the music turned up
while</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">embarrassing my children with my mad
car dancing skills.</span><br />

<p style="text-align: center;">Blue Williams shines no matter the circumstance.
-Prettiest in her hometown
-Most talented cheerleader on her high school squad
-Valedictorian of the senior class
-Prom queen and runner up for Miss Teen Colorado
And the list goes on…</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">That’s until college, when she finds out nobody recognizes her, and if they do they couldn’t care less. Blending in is something Blue has longed for her entire life. Living in a dorm with a set of new friends is just what she needed to escape her stale life back home. For the first time, she’s seen for her talent and not her name or looks.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Cheer is her number one priority, considering a full-ride scholarship landed her at a prestigious university, and she intends to take advantage of it. A true beauty inside and out, Blue’s heart has always pumped competitive blood.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Until one night changes her forever…the beauty is gone, and all she has left are nasty, ugly memories. The man who saved her has a story of his own, with ninety percent of his body scarred.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">What happens when the Beauty falls for the Beast?</p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><span id="freeText13521841559448827489">Merek Slatter is the wild card on the Silver Star Ranch in Texas and always has been. He’s blessed with his granddaddy’s love of the ranch yet haunted with chasing that gold buckle eight seconds at a time.
Tensions are high on the ranch when circumstances threaten to take it under. His dad and brothers pressure him to stay home and become an active cowboy on the ranch. However, Merek is addicted to the road and rodeo. He’s home anytime he can be and provides plenty of money to keep the family ranch afloat, but sometimes it takes more than what’s in the bank to protect tradition.
Now home on a three-month break, Merek finds himself all tied up with the new girl in town. She’s quiet and reserved but there’s something about Challis’ green eyes and feisty attitude that makes her irresistible. When he runs into her at a rodeo and catches a glimpse of her on horseback all hopes of leaving her alone flies out the window.
There are several rumors floating around town about her, however that doesn’t stop Merek from going after what he wants. He knows she’s off limits and only full of trouble, but Merek thrives on trouble and adrenaline.
Then the road calls again and it’s time to leave.
Eight Seconds
Gold Buckles
And the high…
What will he choose?</span></p>

<b>~ SYNOPSIS ~ </b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Everyone in Sandy Cove knows that Willow Taylor and Max Vincent are like oil and water. They live to torment one another and if they survive being in the same room together, it’s nothing short of a miracle. Sure, Willow is rich, blonde and beautiful and Max is an achingly hot and talented up and coming rock star—but that just makes it easier for them to hate one another!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Until one night. One drunken night. It was just supposed to be a night of celebration after each of their best friends’, Harlow and Cruz, were reunited. But a few hours of civility leads to one night of unbridled, earth-shattering, cataclysmic sex. It doesn’t help that the details are sketchy in their minds because the off-the-charts after effects still linger. One thing is clear…that night changed everything. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
From that moment on, sabotaging each other’s hook-ups was their primary goal until a truce is made. A pact. No strings attached, no feelings, just more of what their bodies crave whenever they see one another. They both get what they want and no one gets hurt. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Until someone does. Until love and tragedy gets in the way. The heat between Willow and Max is undeniable but will that spark of desire be enough to sustain them through the pain and heartache that threatens them?</div>

My love of books started me on my writing journey. I began writing my first book in July 2012 and since that time I have created 2 series. The first series 'The Reunion Series' debuted in November 2012 and two books followed. My new series 'The Shore Series' debuted in March 2014 and claimed Best Selling status shortly after the release of the first book. There will be 6 Shore Series books in all. I’m also the author of the Romantic Comedy, 39 & Holding. I live in Philadelphia with my adoringly handsome husband, and pretty cute kids if I may say so myself. You can always find me with the Kindle glued to my hands or in my car with the music turned up while embarrassing my children with my mad car dancing skills.</div>

<p style="text-align: center;">Let the sin continue… Cole Sterling racks up plenty of frequent flyer miles in his sinful style behind closed doors with the women and men of LA. Night after night, he dulls the stress of being the lead Sterling by getting lost in his own desires. His favorite number is three, and he doesn’t discriminate when it comes to partners. Pleasure is pleasure, and his drug of choice to distract him from Made To Sin being behind schedule and his brothers’ debauchery.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Cole called it the West Coast curse as an inside joke, but when he realizes he’s made the biggest mistake of his life and may lose his best friend, not to mention the woman who stole his heart, he becomes a firm believer in the curse.</p>

<p style="text-align: center;">Every life has a different path full of sharp turns, smooth curves, and steep
drop offs.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Hollis Murphy has a plan—college, career, boyfriend, love, marriage,
family. A predictable, normal life. She’s on track until an outside force causes her to crash and burn.
They call it an accident, because that’s the only word they know to explain what happens to her. It helps
everyone move on with their lives, except for Hollis. She holds on to the belief that she’s been targeted
for a reason.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Risher Stevenson is intelligent, caring, sweet, and the hottest boy Hollis
has ever laid eyes on. He fits perfectly into her original plan for a normal life. Everyone loves him.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Benton Daniels is intelligent, caring, sweet, and the bravest boy Hollis has
ever met. He doesn’t fit into her life but gives it purpose and makes it extraordinary. Everyone hates
him.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">One is bullied. One is tormented. All are judged. How will it STOP?</p>

The air was filled with the energy of the new school year. Hellos, goodbyes, laughter, and questions
swirled around me. New friendships were already being formed and old ones reunited. The pair of flip
flops in front of me moved forward, so I followed. After fifteen minutes of the shuffle ‘n stop, I reached
the check in desk. An older lady with short salt and pepper hair sat slightly hunched over, partially
blocked by a large stack of thick manila envelopes. Never looking up, she recited a generic Welcome to
Chambers spiel. All the noisy activity made it hard to hear every little thing the woman said. Her gaze
and eyebrows lifted as she stared up at me.
<em>Terrific, its starting already</em>.
Not sure what to do, I gave her a weak smile and waited for instructions.
“Name?” she said, impatiently.
I was so flustered that for a second I’d forgotten who I was. “Hollis Murphy.”
She scribbled something on a spreadsheet and handed me a packet with my name and the number two
hundred ten typed out on sticker, which I assumed was my room.
In a flat bored voice, she said, “Everything you need to know is in the packet. Should you have any
additional questions or needs after reading the information, please ask your RA. Have a productive
semester. Next!”
Clutching the envelope to my chest, my gaze shifted back down, and I walked quickly out into the hall.
As I turned the corner, a loud deep “woot!” jerked my attention down the hall. I took one step before
crashing full force into something solid and warm. I stumbled back, dropping the envelope. When my
balance returned, my gaze shot up to see a gray T-shirt with cut off sleeves, stretched across broad
shoulders. Glancing down in search of my envelope, I couldn’t help but spot the narrow hips and round
ass covered in black basketball shorts. As I squatted to pick up the envelope, a tanned forearm came
into view. My gaze roamed up to find the arm was covered in bulging muscles.
“Oh god, I’m so…sor..ry,” I stammered, my cheeks heating with embarrassment.
“Here ya go,” a deep voice said.
As I reached for the envelope, my gaze inadvertently shot up to the warmest green eyes ever created.
His dark brown hair was cut short on the sides, longer on top, and tousled. The perfect amount of scuff
peppered his strong jawline with deep dimples framing a sexy lopsided smile. The air was immediately
sucked from my lungs. He wasn’t just hot, he was boy band hot.
A deep chuckle drifted down before I realized he had stood up and was extending his hand to me.
<em>Oh boy! I get to touch him!</em>
I slipped my hand into his and felt an immediate jolt of electricity. The muscles in his arm twitched.
<em>He felt it too.</em>
“Thank you,” I said, as he helped me up.
“I’m Risher Stevenson.”
<em>He was actually introducing himself to me.</em>
It had become automatic for me not to look directly at anyone, especially a stranger. Usually, I’d angle
my head down and to the right in order to hide the messed up side of my face. But, those green eyes
locked me in place.
“Hollis Murphy.”
“Nice to meet you Hollis Murphy.”
“Sorry again about running into you. I need to do a better job at watching where I’m going.”
The tip of his tongue slipped between his lips before they formed into a slight smirk. Just as he was
about to speak his name came barreling down the hallway.
“Rish! Get your ass down here. We’ve got a ton of boxes to haul in.” A blonde haired guy stood at the
end of the hall.
“I gotta go finish helping my friends move in.”
I nodded.
Risher took three steps before turning back toward me. “Don’t do too good of a job.”
My eyebrows squished together in confusion.
“At watching where you’re going. I hate to think I won’t get rump bumped again.”
He tossed me a wink before jogging away.
I Sasquatched those shoulders, those hips, and that ass all the way down the hall.

<p style="text-align: center;">Outcast, deviant, loser.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Cliff Benjamin never trusted anyone enough to share in his pain. For years, he’s hidden from what he’s done, the regrets that cause him sleepless nights, and those that he’s hurt the most. Years later, life couldn’t be better. He’s found security in his crew, building an empire with his best friends, and creating works of art on the flesh of his clients. Nothing could change the way he feels about the men and women in his life.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Kris Anne never thought she’d lose the love of her life. Trying to move on, she decides to visit her sister, Jenn, in Alabama. No matter how hard she yearns for her lost soul mate, the curse of another man plagues her thoughts day in and day out. Confused and unsure of her path in life, she wills herself to finally let go.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">That is until the night of Cursed Magic’s grand reopening.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Cliff never thought his past would come back and destroy him once and for all, he thought he’d stayed hidden long enough for the memories to seep away. Now the weight of his mistakes has put those closest to him in danger…including her.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Can Cliff finally come clean and admit to the errors of his ways? Will he be able to break free of his past to keep her safe?</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">The only way to set yourself free is to allow others in…be honest, be loyal and always be real.</p>

She has drank from a keg in a cornfield, attended the University of Nebraska, got to pass her candle, and did have a boy ask her to marry him in a bar.
