Misha

I can’t help but smile at the words in her letter. She misses me.

In fifth grade, my teacher set us up with pen pals from a different school. Thinking I was a girl, with a name like Misha, the other teacher paired me up with her student, Ryen. My teacher, believing Ryen was a boy like me, agreed.

It didn’t take long for us to figure out the mistake. And in no time at all, we were arguing about everything. The best take-out pizza. Android vs. iPhone. Whether or not Eminem is the greatest rapper ever…

And that was the start. For the next seven years, it was us.

Her letters are always on black paper with silver writing. Sometimes there’s one a week or three in a day, but I need them. She’s the only one who keeps me on track, talks me down, and accepts everything I am.

We only had three rules. No social media, no phone numbers, no pictures. We had a good thing going. Why ruin it?

Until I run across a photo of a girl online. Name’s Ryen, loves Gallo’s pizza, and worships her iPhone. What are the chances?

F*ck it. I need to meet her.

I just don’t expect to hate what I find.

Ryen

He hasn’t written in three months. Something’s wrong. Did he die? Get arrested? Knowing Misha, neither would be a stretch.

Without him around, I’m going crazy. I need to know someone is listening. It’s my own fault. I should've gotten his number or picture or something.

He could be gone forever.

Or right under my nose, and I wouldn’t even know it.]]>

<![CDATA[Fire in You (Wait for You, #6)]]> 20980797
Jillian Lima’s whole world was destroyed in a span of a few hours. The same night her childhood love, Brock ā€˜the Beast’ Mitchell, broke her heart, her life was irrevocably altered by the hand of a stranger with a gun. It takes six years to slowly glue together the shattered pieces of her life, but Jillian is finally ready to stop existing in a past full of pain and regret. She takes a job at her father’s martial arts Academy and she’s going out on her first date since a failed relationship that was more yuck than yum. Jillian is determined to start living.

She just never expected Brock to be a part of her life again. But he’s firmly back in her life before she knows it, and not only is he older, he’s impossibly more handsome, more teasing and more everything. And when he sees Jillian, he’s no longer capable of thinking of her as the little girl who was his shadow growing up or the daughter of the man who gave him a second chance at life. He sees the woman who’d always been there for him, the one person who believed in him no matter what.

Brock knows she’s the one he should’ve made his, and what begins as a tentative friendship quickly turns to red-hot chemistry that sparks a flame that burns brighter than lust. Falling for Brock again risks more than her heart, because when the past sorrow-filled and guilt-ridden past resurfaces, and a web of lies threatens to rip them apart, the fallout could lay waste to everything they’ve fought to build together, and destroy the dreams of those they care most about.]]>

A Love Letter to Whiskey 32503589 Kandi Steiner delivers her most achingly poignant work in this international bestseller about two lovers fighting the curse of bad timing. It’s crazy how fast the buzz comes back after you’ve been sober for so long.Whiskey stood there, on my doorstep, just like he had one year before.Except this time, there was no rain, no anger, no wedding invitation — it was just us.It was just him — the old friend, the easy smile, the twisted solace wrapped in a glittering bottle.It was just me — the alcoholic, pretending like I didn’t want to taste him, realizing too quickly that months of being clean didn’t make me crave him any less.But we can’t start here.No, to tell this story right, we need to go back.Back to the beginning.Back to the very first drop.This is my love letter to Whiskey.I only hope he reads it.]]> 380 Kandi Steiner Bella 5 4.29 2016 A Love Letter to Whiskey

<![CDATA[The Air He Breathes (Elements, #1)]]> 25564446
ā€œStay away from him,ā€ people said.
ā€œHe’s cruel.ā€
ā€œHe’s cold.ā€
ā€œHe’s damaged.ā€

It’s easy to judge a man because of his past. To look at Tristan and see a monster.

But I couldn’t do that. I had to accept the wreckage that lived inside of him because it also lived inside of me.

We were both empty.
We were both looking for something else. Something more.
We both wanted to put together the shattered pieces of our yesterdays.

Then perhaps we could finally remember how to breathe.]]>

<![CDATA[Mr. President (White House, #1)]]> 32468167
He's won the hearts of millions. But is he willing to lose his?

I met the president’s son when we were both young. Matthew Hamilton was handsome, polished, and intelligent. I’d never met a guy like him.

He promised me that he’d never run for president. I promised that if he did, I’d be by his side.

Three terms later, an invitation to join Matthew Hamilton’s campaign is the most exhilarating opportunity I’ve ever experienced. I'm determined to make a difference; he is determined to win.

Focused on his goal, Matt is steadfast, ruthless, and disarming. All eyes are on him and his popularity is surging. But soon, the next possible president of the United States is possessing me in more ways than one—and despite the risks, I'm helpless to resist.

We're stealing touches, stealing moments, and stealing away at night. But our chemical connection is quickly becoming dangerously combustive, putting not only my heart, but Matt's chance at the presidency on the line.

Winning will take everything. Walking away will be the hardest thing of all.]]>

This one was super Sexy and Crazy GOOD! I love Katy Evans she always seems to deliver just want you need in a book and she did not disappoint in this one. Matthew Hamilton is strong, sexy man and HEEL I would so vote for him. But when the past comes back and she is all grown up will it get in the way of the one thing he has worked so hard to achieved...OH this book gets intense and very on the edge, and I just could stop reading it.
Looking fro something sexy and intense this one is for you because once you meet Matt you wont needs anything else!

<![CDATA[Preppy: The Life & Death of Samuel Clearwater, Part One (King, #5)]]> 30739547
Samuel Clearwater, A.K.A Preppy, likes bowties, pancakes, suspenders, good friends, good times, good drugs, and a good f*ck.
He s worked his way out from beneath a hellish childhood and is living the life he s always imagined for himself. When he meets a girl, a junkie on the verge of ending it all, he s torn between his feelings for her and the crippling fear that she could be the one to end the life he loves.
Andrea Dre Capulet is strung out and tired.
Tired of living for her next fix. Tired of doing things that make her stomach turn. Tired of looking in the mirror at the reflection of the person she s become. Just when she decides to end it all, she meets a man who will change the course of both their lives forever.
And their deaths.
For most people, death is the end of their story.
For Preppy and Dre, death was only the beginning."]]>

This review cant get into to much, I think if you do say too much it gives the whole book away and that would suck. Preppy, Samuel Clearwater the dude we all loved in each book in the KING series...now has his own book and HOLY CRAP was his book... raw,dirty,sexy,hot, intense, sad and just plan old Preppy with his banter ( so freaking love his mouth I just love all he says) big *cough-caugh* it was just filled with everything you hoped for. TM delivered in this one and I am excited to see what she brings to the table in part 2!

Listen EVERYONE I have always said this series is amazing each and every book in it is just EPIC but this one kind of topped it off and now I am going to sit in the corner and CRY a little till part 2 is out!

I love that we got ALL of Preppy, his story why he is the way he is and what his heart really wants. His little Dr.Dre and how they seemed to have saved each other even if it was not in the usual way but who in this series is normal that's the best f-ing part! You have to be ready to read some F-ed up crap when you start this one because there is no puppies and kitties here but if you know Prep you knew this already. Oh and a little cameo from one of our fave bikers too.... and maybe 2 or 3 others but you have to read NO TELLING!!

OK NOW GO READ if you have not and if you have not read the series it starts with KING ( that MFer is WOW) ok that's all I have for now!!!!!!!

SIN & SUFFER

She came from a past Arthur "Kill" Killian never forgot. She made him sin and made him suffer. She tugged him from the shadows and showed him he wasn't as dead as he thought. And with her resurrection came betrayal, deceit, and war.

But then they took her. Stole her. Imprisoned her.

Now Kill's carefully laid plans for vengeance are complete. He craves action, retribution-the blood of his enemies. War has begun. War is all they'll know until they've paid their penance. He will get her back-and rewrite their destiny . . .]]>
