Twisted Perfection (Perfection, #1) Twisted Perfection is the first instalment in the Perfection series by the oh so very talented Abbi Glines.

Book description:

Life outside of her house was a new experience for Della Sloane. The dark secrets of her past weren’t something she ever intended to share with anyone. They would never understand. No one would ever get close enough to find out. There was always a chance she’d go crazy sooner than they expected…

Woods Kerrington had never been one to be attracted to fragile females. They seemed like too much work. He wasn’t in it for the work just the pleasure. A night full of naughty fun had been exactly what was on his mind when he’d laid eyes on the hot little number that didn’t know how to pump gas and needed some help.

What he didn’t know was she was as fragile as they came.
The carefree girl who spoke her mind and didn’t care what the world thought of her was more breakable than he could ever imagine…

                  
              * WARNING MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS YOU        HAVE  BEEN WARNED*

*Fans my self* wow just wow this book is WAY HOT. I know her books are meant to be spicy and mouth watering but DAMN *drools*. I haven't fallen head over heels over one of her books since Fallen Too Far. Don't get me wrong I love all of her books but man this one just sucked me in big time...This book totally pulled me out of my book funk that I was in, I couldn't put it down for one second. *yawn* ended up staying up way too late to read because that's how enticing and delicious it was. 

I won't lie but most books I read I can't stand the main female lead because they usually drive me crazy with their need to whine but this book had a very pleasant surprise :). Della Sloane was a breath of fresh air when it comes to female characters. She had a tough up bringing but she never let that bring her down which is admirable, most people if they had gone through all that hardships they would have fallen apart and lost it. When we first encounter her she's shy and very unsure of what she wants to do or how to act around other people. As the story progresses though we discover more about her dark past and why she is the way she is. Her growth throughout the book is touching, she fights her demons but doesn't get deterred and I think the may reason for that is thanks to her man :). I believe she will be able to fight off her demons :) I have faith in her.

Now as for Woods well if you are a fan of Fallen Too Far then you will have already encountered him if not then be prepared to listen to me gush about him *faints*. Since I've already had the pleasure of getting to know him a little in the previously stated book I already liked him. I mean come on who wouldn't he's tall, chiseled features, gorgeous body, sexy voice, dark eyes and not to mention he's super sweet and protective of the people he cares about. He's a very driven person whom works very hard for what he believes is right for him in life. Little did he know though that his life would forever change the day a shy innocent girl asked him to help her to pump gas(so adorable).I loved his cave man side when it came to the possessiveness of what was his (Della). I also really loved the sensitive side to him it was so touching.

Lets just say their first encounter with each other is very memorable ;) for the both of them. If you aren't used to reading books that are very descriptive when it comes to sexual events then be warned because this one has a lot of it and I mean A LOT. But besides all the mind blowing sex these two have it was really nice to see the characters change and grow together it was very heartwarming.

I honestly think Abbi truly out did her self with this book. It was perfection even if it had very dark and twisted aspect to it ;) yes I know what I just did there :p. I give this book two thumbs up and 20 stars ;) not possible I know *sigh* but if it was I would be giving it 20 stars. I used to like Woods I thought he was a decent guy but now I love him he's so amazing. I think he grew the most throughout the book. He learnt to let things go, he learnt to love and he discovered what was really important in life. I truly hope those two can face everything that will come at them in the second book.

Never Too Far (Too Far, #2)

Never Too Far is the second instalment in the Too Far series by the brilliant author Abbi Glines

Book description:

He had held a secret that destroyed her world.

Everything she had known was no longer true.

Blaire couldn’t stop loving him but she knew she could never forgive him.
Now, she was back home and learning to live again. Moving on with life… until something happened to send her world spinning once again.
What do you do when the one person you can never trust again is the one that you need to trust so desperately?

You lie, hide, avoid, and pray that your sins never find you out.


*sigh* This book will definitely satisfy your Rush Crush. You really get to see the soft vulnerable side of him for once and it just amps up his hot factor 10x over. So many times throughout this book I wanted to jump in there and hug the crap out of him. I have no idea what more he could have done to show Blaire he really loved her. I mean come on he was half a man when she left him..Mopey Rush was just heartbreaking.

Now as for Blaire ugh *pulls out hair* I actually didn't mind her in the first book but MY DEAR GOD she annoyed the crap out of me in this one. I wanted to jump into the book and shake her and tell her to grab a dang brain. Her pity party was getting on my last nerve, I understood why she had trust issues I don't fault her on that one bit but I mean he was trying everything possible to show her that he was there for her but it was never good enough for her *shakes head*

I'm not saying I didn't enjoy this book, because in all honesty I really did, just aspects of it annoyed me. It was an emotional ride that's for sure, it was definitely nice to see the different views from each character. I really enjoyed Rush's POV throughout the book but I didn't really care for Blaire's. To be honest I liked Fallen Too Far more just for the simple fact that it didn't frustrate me as much. Although on that note there where many more parts I truly loved about this one.

This book had many sweet and tender moments that will make your heart melt and might even make you cry a little.

Stay tuned for Book 3 of the Too Far series :) also you can follow Abbi , Rush and Blaire on twitter

I know this may sound really stupid and crazy to some people but I really don't care. Ever since I started reading books I've had a deeper appreciation for the authors and all the hard work that's put into making such great novels. Only recently have I truly discovered what authors really go through and there is no way I could ever do it :/ they are brave I swear. Being attacked because someone doesn't like your book and having to rewrite and do things that you know people will cry because its heart wrenching. There is no way I could kill off or say goodbye to a character that I spent so much time on. I get to attached to books and characters as it is so no way could I handle that lol. But enough about this , my whole purpose for this post is to thank some of the most amazing authors friends I have made :)

Dear Elise,

You are by far one of the funniest/perverted person I know lol but I love ever second of it. On top of that you are strong willed, open minded, determined and a bad ass with a caring heart! You are always there for the people you care about even if they are only tweeter peeps like Jazzy and I. I'm very lucky to know you and have you as a friend. I am also very luck to have had the opportunity to read your books( I will read two soon promise) they are fantastic. You have a bucket load of talent :). You are amazing and everyone is a little bit better just for having the privilege to know you!

Dear Helen,

You are so sweet and modest it's crazy( so going to have to change that one soon). You have so much talent its scary. You were the first author that I really ever got to talk to and right away I felt like I could tell you anything because of the person you are. You are bright, caring, spunky at times lol. You care deeply about people and that's a wonderful gift to have because not many people care about others anymore. I completely fell in love with your book and I'm dying to read number two but you already know that lol. You are a wonderful person inside and out no matter what anyone says. You have this inner strength about you that you may not even notice.

You ladies are the most epic people I know and I'm very lucky to know both of you. My life has been made better because of it that's for sure :). I think any book nerd would be happy to have friends who are authors, it's a dream come true for us :) Keep on rocking you two love you both xoxo <3

P.S
 Your characters are awesome and crazy, in the book and on twitter haha

 Die for Her (Revenants #2.5) by Amy Plum
 
Book description:
 
Set in the romantic and death-defying world of the international bestselling Die for Me trilogy, this digital original novella follows Jules, a brooding, immortal French artist who has fallen in love with his best friend’s girlfriend.

Jules Marchenoir is a revenant-an undead being whose fate forces him to sacrifice himself over and over again to save human lives. He’s spent the better part of the last century flirting his way through Paris, but when he met Kate Mercier, the heroine from Amy Plum’s Die for Me trilogy, he knew his afterlife had changed forever and he had found the love of his life. Until Kate fell for his best friend, Vincent. Now Jules is faced with an impossible decision: choosing between his loyal friend and a love truly worth dying for.
 
If you have not read her other books in this series you really need to get off you but and go to the book store and buy it!! RIGHT NOW!! * chases you to the book store :p*
These books are one of the most AMAZING books that I have read in a while, my god it just sucks you in so deep that even after you stop reading you still feel like you are trapped in the book.
 
I have been in love her lovely French boys since the first page, but I think I have fallen for them even harder now *Fans my self*. Vincent has always been my favourite, I mean he captured my heart right off the hop but I think my second favourite has jumped on the band waggon and stolen it from him.
 
Oh my Jules *sigh* I didn't think that he could make me swoon anymore but he has proven me wrong. Not a complete shocker that's for damn sure, I mean its JULES that in its self is an explanation hahah .What isn't there that's good about him *counts on fingers* 1 he's witty and a little bit pervy, 2 he's an artist, 3 he's gorgeous, 4 he's French, 5 he's secretly sensitive and last but not least he has a heart of gold. He would do anything thing for the ones he cares for even sacrifice himself and his feelings. Who in this world wouldn't want a man or a friend that had that much devotion, I know I sure would love that.
 
Amy has indeed out done her self with this novella, it gives us great insight into another character that people love, another point of view to the hole series which is just brilliant. Die For Her is the perfect treat for the anticipation for the next and final book in the series If I Should Die coming out May 7th. I must give this book 5 out of 5 for it's delectable perfection into the world of the brooding French revenant Jules. This store made me laugh and cry all at the same time, I can not recall how many times I wished to go into the book and hug Jules. I felt bad for him on numerous occasions. Not only did I feel terrible for him but every time I read Vincent's name, tears would spring to my eyes!!WHY OH WHY AMY MUST YOU TORTURE US SO!!  I swear I had a book hangover after I was finished with it haha.
 
She has yet again left us wondering what will happen to Kate, Vincent and Jules!!
Is Vincent truly lost forever or is there a way to save him?
Will Kate ever find out how Jules really feels about her?
What will happen to Jules now once all hell breaks lose?
 
I can not wait to read the next book and find out what shall happen to my favourite book characters.
This was truly a compelling story of forbidden love and true test to friendship and loyalty.
