Unchained - Jennifer L. Armentrout

"He kissed her so deeply that she thought her soul would burst into flames. He laid claim to her soul, just as he had already done to her heart." (J.L.A.)

That quote gets me every single time that I read this book. I mean, COME ON. Who wouldn't want a guy or girl that does this to you every single time? 

Julian... You're moving onto my book boyfriends list. Stalk me anytime, fallen angel. I mean, at the end when that plot twist... Well it wasn't even just one plot twist. Although, Julian was and always will be the sweetest fallen angel that I have ever read about. 

"Those words touches a part of her, one that was tender and vulnerable." (J.L.A.)

Published Date (e-book only): September 17, 2013
Genre: Young Adult/Romance/Fantasy

Synopsis: Between the pissed off creatures that want demon-hunter Lily Marks dead and the fallen angel who just...wants her, Lily is about ready to trade in forever for a comfy job in a cubicle farm.

The fact that she and Julian are civil to one another is enough to have her thrown out of the Sanctuary, but she can't shake her not-so-angelic stalker or how he brings her dangerously close to ecstasy.

Her forbidden relationship with Julian provides the perfect fuel for suspicion when a traitor is discovered to be working within the Sanctuary. Lily quickly finds herself hunted by well, everyone.

Her only hope is to discover the real traitor before she loses everything--and she'll need Julian's help. That is, if Julian is really there to help her...and not destroy her.

Yeah, being a Nephilim isn't everything it's cracked up to be.

I rate this book a 3.7 out of 5 stars. I am a huge sucker for romance and this is one of the very few books that I consider true romance. The fallen angel who was portrayed as the antagonist truly never was one because I mean, the plot twist. But you will just have to read this in order to know what I am talking about. 

I will be back with Rebels: City of Indra - Kendall/Kylie Jenner and Maya Sloan and one more announcement: 

In just a couple more days and a month, Forever with You - Jennifer L. Armentrout will be released on September 29, 2015. Do keep an eye out for it! 

To-Be Published Date: September 29, 2015 (Subjected to change)

Genre: Romance/Young Adult

Synopsis: In the irresistibly sexy series from #1 New York Times bestselling author Jennifer L. Armentrout, two free spirits find their lives changed by a one-night stand…

Some things you just believe in, even if you've never experienced them. For Stephanie, that list includes love. It's out there. Somewhere. Eventually. Meanwhile she's got her job at the mixed martial arts training center and hot flings with gorgeous, temporary guys like Nick. Then a secret brings them closer, opening Steph's eyes to a future she never knew she wanted—until tragedy rips it away.

Nick's self-assured surface shields a past no one needs to know about. His mind-blowing connection with Steph changes all that. As fast as he's knocking down the walls that have kept him commitment-free, she's building them up again, determined to keep the hurt—and Nick—out. But he can't walk away. Not when she's the only one who's ever made him wish for forever . . . 

I do hope that I will get a chance to review this in paperback more than the Kindle Edition to be close to finishing up my paperback collection of the Wait for You series. 

Alrighty, my awesome book nerds, I will blog you later as soon as I can! 

Dream of You - Jennifer L. Armentrout

You know the best feeling in the world is when you figure out why the author titled the book the way it is? Yeah, I definitely felt that in this one.

I rate this book a solid 4.7 stars out of 5 because not only was it sweet as hell but it made me fall out of my seat (figuratively) several times because every page was a turner and it made you want to keep going and going and going. 

I am not sure how many times that I could use the word 'going' in a sentence before it would make you all hate me. 

There were several clippings in the book that I wanted to share with you all but I decided it would give away too much of the novel so I guess you guys will have to just read it and find the parts that made you laugh or your heart squeeze out of your chest and share them with me.

Genre: Romance/New Adult

Synopsis: Love thy sexy jerk of a neighbor…

CEO Michael Anderson might be something of a “control freak.” Still, he’s not quite sure why his therapist thinks dogsitting will fix anything—especially since he and the canine share a kind of mutual loathing. And to make matters worse, a house sitter moves in next door disrupting his peace—and his dates—with the worst possible music at the worst possible time... every time. 

Free-spirited artist Mia Argaropolis has settled into the perfect gig—housesitting in NYC’s Upper West Side while working as an art therapist. Too bad she’s stuck living next door to a bossy control freak with a penchant for calling building security when she blasts music to drown out the noises coming through his bedroom wall. 

Post-apocalyptic dinner rolls that nearly take her kitchen with them, a douchebag ex, and a Shih Tzu with the personality of Godzilla attack Mia in one day, and her unlikely neighbor comes to the rescue. Like it was her fault. And now, somehow, they find themselves engaged? Both agree, this neighborly feud just got taken to a whole new level.

Published Date: May 12, 2015

Genre: Horror/Thriller

Synopsis: The first things to shift were the doll's eyes, the beautiful grey-green glass eyes. Slowly they swivelled, until their gaze was resting on Triss's face. Then the tiny mouth moved, opened to speak. 

'What are you doing here?' It was uttered in tones of outrage and surprise, and in a voice as cold and musical as the clinking of cups. 'Who do you think you are? This is my family.'

When Triss wakes up after an accident, she knows that something is very wrong. She is insatiably hungry; her sister seems scared of her and her parents whisper behind closed doors. She looks through her diary to try to remember, but the pages have been ripped out. 

Soon Triss discovers that what happened to her is more strange and terrible than she could ever have imagined, and that she is quite literally not herself. In a quest find the truth she must travel into the terrifying Underbelly of the city to meet a twisted architect who has dark designs on her family - before it's too late...

Release Date - Scorched - Jennifer L. Armentrout

Happy Release Date everyone! Today, or I should say yesterday, exactly at 10:38pm, I received notification that Scorched by Jennifer L. Armentrout was released. 

Even the cover is amazing and so far, the story as well. This book tells the story of Andrea and Tanner's on and off love story with a little twist to the story. 

Published Date: June 16, 2015

Genre: Romance, Tragedy, Fantasy

I will update this post as soon as I finish this book by the end of the day and hopefully encourage you guys to purchase this book. 

There also has been an update on the e-book purchase, mainly on the Nook, that the file uploaded is the wrong file and contains author notes on it. Email scorchedebook@gmail.com regarding it!

Here is what they have posted: 

IMPORTANT UPDATE REGARDING THE SCORCHED EBOOK: 

It has been brought to our attention that the ebook copy of SCORCHED by Jennifer L. Armentrout is not the correct file. We sincerely and wholeheartedly apologize for this error and are working very hard to fix this issue.

Again, we apologize for this inconvenience and thank you so very much for supporting the wonderful Jennifer L. Armentrout and Spencer Hill.

Update:

SPOILER ALERT!

I just finished the book and wow... That is all that I can say about it. This book definitely hit somewhere close to home for me personally because it dealt with depression and anxiety with a whole lot of drinking. Andrea and Tanner have an epic love story that is well developed throughout the book because every person has that one person in their life that they wish that they worked up the courage to talked to but never did... On top of that, there are plenty of people that battle depression, anxiety, and alcoholism, and sometimes we just don't even know it because as explained in the book, the happiest people are often the ones most struggling. 

One of the strongest quotes through the book was, "Make yourself proud." Especially something that I can now tell myself when I am having a hard day or if I know someone else that is. 

Something that I would also like to point out is that even the smallest and kindest gesture can make someone's day.

I rate this book a 5 out of 5 stars and highly recommend this to those that love New Adult and Young Adult books that deal with some of the worst tragedies that some people do actually face. I absolutely fell in love with this book because not only do the characters have a realistic romance blooming but it shows the readers how serious these problems can be. 

Andrea and Tanner are one of my favorite couple, mainly because Andrea has some lady balls that I would like to grow as well while Tanner is just hot and funny so onto the book boyfriends list he goes. 

Thanks for reading awesome book nerds.

Release Date: June 16, 2015

Synopsis: 

Sometimes life leaves a mark…

Most days, Andrea doesn’t know whether she wants to kiss Tanner or punch him in the gut. He is seriously hot, with legit bedroom eyes and that firefighter body of his, but he’s a major player, and they can’t get along for more than a handful of minutes. Until now.

Tanner knows he and Andrea have had an epic love/hate relationship for as long as he can remember, but he wants more love than hate from her. He wants her. Now. Tomorrow. But the more he gets to know her, the more it becomes obvious that Andrea has a problem. She’s teetering on the edge and every time he tries to catch her, she slips through his fingers.

Andrea’s life is spiraling out of control, and it doesn’t matter that Tanner wants to save her, because when everything falls apart and she’s speeding toward rock bottom, only she can save herself.

Sometimes life makes you work for that happily ever after… 

I am just excited to read this book because Armentrout is just as excited and also says that it is something that hits very close to home for herself. 

Thanks readers!

Frigid - Jennifer L. Armentrout

I felt like spoiling you so I binge read Frigid by Jennifer L. Armentrout... 

Now I was a bit reluctant to read this because I did not understand the whole cover art/ title. But it was a slightly funny book that got me in an awkward position of being turned on by a couple of words of what a man could do. 

Synopsis:

For twenty-one-year-old Sydney, being in love with Kyler isn't anything new. They'd been best friends ever since he pushed her down on the playground and she made him eat a mud pie. Somewhere over the years, she fell for him and fell hard. The big problem with that? Kyler puts the 'man' in man-whore. He's never stayed with a girl longer than a few nights, and with it being their last year in college, Syd doesn't want to risk their friendship by declaring her love.

Kyler has always put Syd on a pedestal that was too high for him to reach. To him, she's perfect and she's everything. But the feelings he has for her, he's always hidden away or focused on any other female. After all, Kyler will always be the poor boy from the wrong side of tracks, and Syd will always be the one girl he can never have.

But when they're stranded together at a posh ski resort due to a massive Nor'easter, there's nothing stopping their red-hot feelings for each other from coming to the surface. Can their friendship survive the attraction? Better yet, can they survive at all? Because as the snow falls, someone is stalking them, and this ski trip may be a life-changer in more ways than one. 

Like hello abs ;)

Ugh, this book is an absolute thriller and sexy as hell novel and I cannot wait to read the second book to this book: Scorched by Jennifer L. Armentrout. 

You guys are fantastic readers and my writing is so little so I want to spoil you guys for gracing me with your eyes. 

Do I recommend reading this book? Hell to the freaking yes! Next book to be read and reviewed is The Strange Maid by Tessa Gratton.
