This book was nothing like I thought it would be. Valerie is trying to come to terms with the school shooting propagated by her boyfriend. This book is good because I feel it realistically portrays the aftermath of emotions and feelings when a tragedy occurs. I don’t like this book because I’m a sucker for a happy ending and for things to be wrapped up nice and neat and tried with a pretty bow.

Eeehh! The author can and has done better.

Hunter is just one of the five men in the Billionaire Boys secret society. He has lived most of his life hiding in solitude after being horribly disfigured. He needs someone who can look past his scars and he thinks Gretchen is a perfect fit. He schemes to get her to live in his house for one month, but things go both better and worse than he could have ever hoped. I love this series and this title is reminiscent of all beauty and the beast fairy tales. And that’s just the way I like it.

Forty years ago there was a criminal compound reminiscent of Waco, Texas. Two of these domestic terrorists are still at large. Left behind at the crime scene was DNA from a newborn child. In current times a DNA hit has come up at a Southern murder trial. Dawson Scott is searching for his next assignment. As an Afghanistan war reporter he should have his pick of assignments, but is pushed by his friend and FBI informant to check out this story. He makes his way down South and gets embroiled in a whole new type of adventure. Amelia Wesson is the ex-wife of the missing and presumed dead marine vet Jeremy Wesson. Sparks fly and so do bullets in this romantic thriller from Brown. I love that I didn’t have everything figured out in the first hundred pages, because you want/need to keep going to find out if there will be a happy ending.

Dale Porter has followed his heart and ignored her head more times than she should. Now after finding her man, and best friend nocking knees, she’s off on a new job with an overly controlling man who makes her mouth water. Kyran Reese is stone. He runs his company, tries to keep his brother out of trouble, and secretly fights to release stress. Fights as in bare knuckle boxing in a club downtown. His attraction to Dale is immediate but she works for his company and is off limits. The “off limits” sign may be flashing neon but when Dale learns Kyran’s two biggest secrets- fighting and two sleeves of tattoos, the light on that sign burns out. I loved this story. I loved the modern, less then idolized characters and the steamy action throughout.

This book perfectly conveys how your favorite book affects you. It is perfectly feasible to hate a book you love and take way to literal or not literal enough.

Not bad, but nothing new or exciting that can’t be found in other knitting books.

If you want a coffee table book on the modern quilt movement then this book is for you. If you are a devoted quilter looking for new patterns leave this book on the shelf. This being said, there are two ideas I plan on stealing.

Its not bad, but when labeled as erotica I thought the stories should have been more (just more). They were quite tame compared to other similar offerings.

My nephew and I loved this book. A simple line can be cute or it can be scary. It can be anything your imagination makes it.
