Never Never - review

When I found out that two of my favorite authors were going to team up to create a book, I couldn't wait to read it! Never Never did not disappoint!

Collen Hoover and Tarryn Fisher nailed it! This book was different and unlike anything I've read before. The only downfall is the huge cliffhanger! I need more now!!!!

Best friends since they could walk.
In love since the age of fourteen.
Complete strangers since this morning.

He'll do anything to remember.
She'll do anything to forget.

When Silas and Charlie both wake up with no memory of who they are, they team up to figure things out. I must say, I have no clue as to where this story is going and was on the edge of my seat the entire time. I can't wait to find out what happens next! 

Mud Vein - review

Let me just start by saying that I read this book a few weeks ago and had to completely digest it before I went right into a review that I may regret later.

As I sit here writing this review, I'm still completely torn. I hated this book because it completely sucked me in and then just let me down. Every morning I read this on the elliptical and there were times that I just kept going and other times where I just wanted it over! As much as I'm talking about the workout, I mean the book too! The story line was just okay for me. It took a long time to build up to the dramatic ending that left me in complete shock and not sure how to react.

I didn't care for Senna at all. Yes, I felt bad for her because she had so many terrible things happen to her in her life yet she had Isaac and she kept pushing him away. As for Isaac, everyone deserves to have someone that makes them look forward to tomorrow and someone who will love you regardless of all the bad.

“What’s the difference?” I asked him. “Between the love of your life, and your soulmate?”
“One is a choice, and one is not.” - Tarryn Fisher

I love that Tarryn pushes the envelope with Mud Vein! Not many authors can do that yet Tarryn Fisher can without a paper cut! I am a forever fan and can't wait for what she thinks up next!

Thief - review

Thief. The third and final installment of the Love Me With Lies series comes full circle to a fantastic ending right where it began so long ago. After the last bomb was dropped in Dirty Red, I have been dying to get my hands on Thief.

Tarryn Fisher did an amazing job on this series. Each book is told from a different character's point of view and this time we finally get to hear from Caleb. From the very beginning Caleb and Olivia have had a roller coaster romance. Caleb is determined to get Olivia back after all this time while dealing with the aftermath of Leah and her destruction as well. 

Caleb and Olivia's relationship is completely dysfunctional. They have both had their fair share of ups and downs, trouble, heartache, loss and have had every obstacle possible thrown in their way yet they are so drawn to each other and they make each other stronger.

Their story is imperfectly perfect! Highly recommend this series for anyone looking for and angst filled, highly dramatic, emotional read.


Love is patient; love is kind.
Love doesn't boast or brag.
There's no arrogance in love;
it's never rude, crude, or indecent-it's not self absorbed.
Love isn't easily upset.
Love doesn't tally wrongs.
Love trusts, hopes, and endures no matter what.
Love will never become obsolete.
I'll fight for her.
-Thief

Dirty Red - review

In the words of Tarryn Fisher, "Never trust a redhead"!

Dirty Red, Book 2, in the Love Me With Lies series....OMFG! And to think, I hated Leah in the Opportunist! Why would I even bother to read a book completely about her?! Because she's a red head! That's why!

All I have to say is that this book is a great addition to the series. We really get to see Leah in a whole new light and I'm not saying that's a good thing. She is an evil, manipulating, heartless bitch! Leah finally has everything she has ever wanted, including Caleb, yet she really doesn't have him and never fully did. Olivia will always be there, in the back of Caleb's mind as everything he wants and can't have. I love that Leah is reminded of that fact too!

  “Go be with your husband ... before he realizes that he's still in love with me” - Olivia

Leah is determined to do whatever she can to keep him, and I mean anything! The ending of the book was a complete shock to my system and of course we are left waiting for book 3, Thief, which is from Caleb's point of view.

The Opportunist - review

Oh my, where do I start?! First off, I can't believe I haven't reviewed this one yet. Having read it almost a year ago, I'm still able to recall every emotion I felt reading it. Love, angst, hurt, lies and deceit all wrapped up in a big red bow! 

I can't even begin to describe the emotional roller coaster ride that this book took me on. After all this time I'm still sick over it! It was raw and real and absolutely didn't end the way I wanted it to. Yet, somehow I still loved it! The characters are excellent and the storyline is so unique and twisted! Thanks a lot Tarryn Fisher for leaving me in complete turmoil! 

I honestly don't want to give anything away but all I have to say is go read it NOW (if you haven't already)! When I finished this book I had no idea that it was going to be a trilogy. I couldn't be happier about it. I am currently reading Dirty Red, book 2 in the Love Me With Lies series.....review to come shortly!

Sexy Sunday 2/24

We got to meet the sexy Caleb Drake in the Opportunist by Tarryn Fisher.  Almost forgot how hot he is but thankfully I can read Dirty Red and be reminded.....
