<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Fatigue lines circled James Walkers eyes and forehead; dry canals of wrinkled flesh ran down the sides of his face. A flood of light washed over him, flickering ever so often. He found himself hissing at that inconvenience before resuming his examination. James spent months inspecting every piece of hardware and taking voice notes—he was ready to proceed.
“James Walker, Ph.D.,” he said into the recorder. “After meticulous examination that produced minor wins and fails, everything seems to be in order. The mechanism is responsive. I’m proceeding to the next step—implementation. Cooling systems have taken to the previous modifications, refer to doc-234. Internal examinations will continue intermittently.”
James clicked off the recorder and sighed. He walked across the room and paused inches from his destination, letting his eyes scan the table and its contents. The thin, silicone-based polymer suit reflected the soft light in the room. The project was close to completion and when he thought of what was at stake, the usual litany of questions and doubts arose. He scratched his stubble and pushed aside thoughts of consequence. He knew all too well that one wrong move might bring down his research like a flimsy deck of cards.
“Positivity doesn’t exist in the realm of fringe science, but you have to try,” he muttered under his breath. Those words fueled James, who focused on the most favorable outcome.
The augmented bio-hybrid suit had muscles, tendons, and ligaments designed to replicate the human body—an exact replica. He rolled the table close to the gurney then proceeded to couple the parts together. It took thirty minutes of concentrated effort to get the body sheathed. James took a step back and admired his masterpiece. It reminded him of a Renaissance anatomical painting he once saw in a museum. A smile tugged at the corner of his lips, but he wiped it away with the back of his hand. He attached a transfusion tube to the small glass cylinder filled with dense liquid. He injected the mixture into the body’s cervical vertebrae. Spider-like microscopic nanocells hurried down the spine and spread into the hybrid suit. The muscle tissues expanded and solidified over the impenetrable frame underneath.
James watched the process unfold. His heart beat in double time, eager to move to the next phase. The pulsating vibe in his ears synced with his anxiety. He ambled to a wall lined with metal cabinets and retrieved the synthetic skin from its compartment. At the table, he arranged them over the entire body like a giant jigsaw puzzle. He watched the panels of skin adhere to one another. His hands imprisoned within his pockets to resist the urge to touch. Soon, skin covered the mechanical suit and a man lay in its place. The transformation was a success.
Exhausted, James glanced at his watch and wondered if he should call it a night or continue to the next phase. Logic advised against that course of action, but the restless inventor needed to proceed. A tremor ran through his hand, a reminder of the imminent situation he was in. Time was no longer a commodity he could afford.
He shook off the reverie and began the final phase. He flipped a switch and waited.
James didn’t expect movement, so when the eyes fluttered, he was startled. Rapid eye movement meant the system transmitted the packets of data through a private server James created, which allowed limited access to a vast global network.
“William? Can you hear me?” James whispered. He moved closer to the table and repeated the question. The eyes continued to flutter for a moment, then flew open. Gracefully, the body sat up and surveyed the room. It—he—was trying to assess its surroundings.
“How do you feel?” James asked tentatively.
“William? Is that my name?” His deep voice resonated throughout the room. His eyes stopped on the bespectacled man in a dark green, cable knit sweater, who stood next to the table. He looked to be in his fifties with tired blue eyes and short, graying, brown hair.
“Yes. Your name is William. And my name is James. I am your creator.”
The AI tilted his head to the side. His dark brown eyes rose to meet James’. “You’re ill. You ha—”
“I-I know,” James interrupted. “Do you know what you are?”
Will held up his hands and flexed the digits. “Am I awake, or am I programmed to feel awake?”
James smiled and sat in a chair near the wall. Excitement welled up inside him. “The fact you even ask that question gives me hope that you are exactly what you’re meant to be.”
“I’m not human,” Will stated.
“No, you’re far more advanced. I was able to correlate specific patterns of the central nervous system with emotions and thought processes to create something beyond a program—an organism. You are the first AI ever to have this organism installed.”
They held each other’s gaze for a moment before James broke contact and continued.
“This evolutionary system will gradually alter and determine your choices based on the human interaction you experience throughout your life, much like a regular person. Over time—I’m not sure how long—but over time, you will start to engage in a more human-like behavior. You will continue to write code as a sentient being.”
Will canted his head and blinked rapidly. “I’ll be able to freely write my own code?”
“To a degree. There are restrictions, uh, goal-oriented programs. More specifically, there is a source code which will prevent you from accessing data that can alter or corrupt your program. Once certain milestones are crossed, you will have the ability to act upon your own thoughts and emotions.” James looked at Will and let out a deep sigh. The expunged breath formed a visible cloud over his face before it dissipated. “For the time being, I need you to remain here in the lab until I’m certain your program is fully functional and is safe enough.”
“Safe enough for what?” William asked.
James didn’t answer. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgswFWM_vsdJvDWYR2aAoaZDJJ6k27rin_Ay9I3geIGJyRXOpMUsEBed0EKND14_awhY8hn8N1b0nI3WIY-A8xIc-8rVLsQcqtKj7zMLGUa6eQ_Hr3hbuXZq65bYsk-A9iFXrXMW0bb4CP6/s1600/PSX_20191020_141251.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1600" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgswFWM_vsdJvDWYR2aAoaZDJJ6k27rin_Ay9I3geIGJyRXOpMUsEBed0EKND14_awhY8hn8N1b0nI3WIY-A8xIc-8rVLsQcqtKj7zMLGUa6eQ_Hr3hbuXZq65bYsk-A9iFXrXMW0bb4CP6/s640/PSX_20191020_141251.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">1) Furious Thing took three years to write. This is very slow! It took that long because I don’t plan – I get bored if I do. I use free-writing techniques instead. This is where you write continuously for a set period without worrying about the rules. So, I might open a book and put my finger on a word and write for twenty minutes. Then I might look out the window and write for another twenty minutes about the first thing I see. Do enough free writing in enough locations over enough weeks and months and a story begins to emerge. It’s a great way of writing with real energy and gathering lots of material. Themes, characters, location, all begin to clarify. With Furious Thing a golden family came first, then a 15-year-old girl who was ‘different’ from this family. She says, ‘I’m an ogre compared to the rest of them.’ Then came the notion of scapegoating – where one person is blamed for the things that go wrong. The drawback of freewriting is that you throw a lot of material away. It’s slow. And it requires a certain amount of faith. But the benefits outweigh the negatives in my opinion. I’m never bored. I’m often surprised by where characters take me. And the writing that doesn’t appear in the book is great at rooting motivation and giving the characters a strong past.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">2) I had more fun writing Lexi (the 15-year-old narrator) than any other character I’ve written. She’s not academic or popular. She’s wildly rude, badly behaved and always in trouble. Writing from the point of view of someone who doesn’t consider outcomes before they act is enormously freeing. If I ever got stuck in the story, I’d just turn to Lexi and ask, ‘So, what happens next?’ She’d always have something up her sleeve. Her actions speak for her. She might not be as academic as her siblings, but she’s emotionally eloquent. She was constantly getting into trouble for creating chaos and I had to get her out of it. I loved that about her. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">3) Furious Thing explores controlling and coercive behaviour – a range of abusive acts that attack the personality rather than the body. It’s a pattern and happens repeatedly over time – one partner is controlling and there's an ongoing sense of fear. It’s a hard area to police because it happens slowly, subtly and covers a range of possible behaviours. It’s also deeply personal because the perpetrator has intimate knowledge of the victim, so the patterns of abuse and control are specifically tailored. It’s illegal in the UK and has been since December 2015. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">4) I hope the book encourages more girls to find their voices. Studies have shown that being angry makes women feel powerless. We feel it will damage relationships and get us nowhere. Women and girls finding allies and feeling they have a right to share their stories is hugely important. Campaigns such as Everyday Sexism and #YesAllWomen and #MeToo allow us to know we’re not alone. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">5) My debut novel, ‘Before I Die’ was at the centre of the Daily Mail’s ‘Sick Lit’ outrage - should we be allowing our young people to read books about grim subjects? Surely, writing about the death of a young person is unnecessary? Isn’t there enough tragedy in the world already? My answer was (and still is) that the LIVES of young people are full of tough things. It’s illusory to think we can keep them safe by only allowing them access to certain books. We need to find the joy among the difficult stuff, rather than ignoring the difficult stuff. Lexi goes through a lot in Furious Thing. But the book contains love, many moments of joy and ends with a great sense of hope. </span><br />

<div>
<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><div style="text-align: center;">
“Welcome to Corpus. A Quaint Town with Country Charm. Speed Limit 45.”
A man and his wife had just driven seven hours from Orange, Virginia. They made their way through the Carolinas, North and South, and finally hit their destination state, the professed buckle of the Bible Belt— the great Peach State of Georgia. It would take another ninety minutes before they finally crossed that “Welcome to Corpus” sign.
“Never heard of a Corpus, Georgia,” the wife said.
“Nor have I,” her husband responded through yawns, his hands on the wheel.
“How much longer until we reach Savannah?”
“Bout thirty-forty miles, I reckon. The drive through this tiny little dump shouldn’t take long.”
“I swear I don’t recall seeing it on the GPS,” his wife said spuriously.
“Nor have I,” he repeated.
It was dark out now. Very dark. After five minutes riding through Corpus, Georgia, the paved road itself seemed to have vanished in favor of a dirt stretch. But it wasn’t the dirt road that bothered them, it was the blanket of fog that covered everything around them. Their sights were limited only to the view allowed by the headlights.
“Dammit, I can’t see a thing. Never been in a town so foggy,” the man said as he clutched the steering wheel and leaned in.
“Nor have I,” his wife shot back ironically.
Another wheel clutching mile or so went by until the husband told his wife to turn the damned GPS back on.
“Are you lost?” she asked as she turned her phone on.
“Just wonna confirm we’re going in the right direction. To hell with these detours.”
There it was, the luck of the draw. The moment her GPS turned on, the engine of their beat-up old Volvo sputtered to a climatic end.
“Oh, not now. What did you do!?” she asked.
“Me? It was your idea to make the drive when we could have flown,” he mumbled.
“Don’t you roll your eyes at me. Get out and do something!”
The wife quickly snapped her head to side. She went wide-eyed upon hearing a loud horrific screech from outside their vehicle. Her husband could see her trembling.
“It’s nothing,” he said as he opened his driver door, slammed it shut, and lumbered toward the front of the car. Up went the hood and down went his head.
“So what is it?” the wife signed as she rolled down her passenger window.
“Might not be the engine. Might be the carburetor,” he said as he closed the hood after a quick inspection. “Either way, call Triple A. I don’t wonna be out here all ni–”
Before he could finish his sentence, a dark winged figure swooped upon him. His wife screamed as the black shadowy demonic figure slammed him onto the hood of the car. The wife’s deafening screams matched the screech of the demon as it pulled her now bloodied husband into the dark of night. His screaming stopped as he faded out of sight and into the fog.
Panicked. Sweating. Fearful. The wife rolled her up window at once, fumbled for her phone, dropped it under her feet, and fumbled for it again. With a panic attack on the rise, she dialed three numbers on her phone.
“911, what is your emergency?”
“SOMETHING JUST GOT MY HUSBAND! SOMETHING IN THE FOG! WHERE’S HE AT? WHERE’S HE AT?” she screamed.
“Ma’am, calm down. Tell us your location and we’ll have assistance respond to your emergency as soon as possible.” “Corpus, Georgia. Our car stopped. Something got him! Oh God! Something got him!” she screamed through tears. Nerves frayed. She couldn’t quite understand what else the operator was asking her.
A giant thud was accompanied by an immediately dent made upon the roof of her car. “It’s back!” she screamed into the phone.
“Don’t end the call, ma’am. Help is on the way,” the operator responded.
But there would be no help for the couple that drove seven hours from Orange, Virginia and intended to make a pilgrimage to Savannah, Georgia. The unintended stop they made in the tiny town of Corpus would be their last.
The operator asked the wife if she was still on the line. Before she could answer, her window was shattered into a million pieces. A hooked arm as black as the night itself, that could only be described as belonging to no human on earth, swooped into the car and impaled the wife. And everything went black. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I love reading protagonists (particularly girls) who fight back against villains, but maybe not in the action-packed, swashbuckling kind of way we usually think of bravery. I have a special spot for young adult characters who are waging war against more internal or social enemies. Give me a YA hero who takes on the world by standing up for her convictions, by speaking up when it would be so much easier to be silent, and by being true to who she is no matter what the world tells her she should be.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">That’s brave in my book. And that quieter, internal strength is what keeps me turning pages and endears me to the characters. Here are five brave protagonists who captured my heart from the first page:</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"> • Melinda Sordino, SPEAK, by Laurie Halse Anderson. While Melinda spends a good chunk of the book hiding what’s happened to her, her bravest moments come when she finally tells what happened. This is not small feat. In a world where people often don’t believe victims and girls are shamed for the actions of others, speaking up is perhaps one of the greatest acts of bravery. This book also embodies bravery to me because Laurie Halse Anderson wrote a book at a time when readers didn’t necessarily want to hear about “such things” and were uncomfortable by seeing something so shocking on the pages. But just like Melinda, Anderson knew that speaking up is usually the only way to fight back. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"> • Katniss Everdeen, THE HUNGER GAMES, by Suzanne Collins. Arrow-wielding Katniss is brave and tough on The Hunger Games battlefield, but that’s not why she makes my list. Katniss is brave because in chapter 1, she puts herself in danger to save someone she loves. She doesn’t even think about it. She does steps forward, raises her hand and takes her sister’s place in a battle that will most likely end in her death. Because of that one moment right at the beginning of the book, I am in Katniss’ corner until the very last page. And as Katniss fights for her life, she uses her smarts, her strength, and most of all, her humanity to survive. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"> • Jo March, LITTLE WOMEN, by Louisa May Alcott. No list of brave girls would be complete for me without Jo March in Little Women. Growing up, this was my favorite book (and really, let’s be honest, still is). Jo embodied everything I wanted to be: smart, funny, rebellious and creative. In an era of embroidery and early marriage, Jo bravely did her own thing. She wrote books in a world of male writers who told her she’d never make it. She tromped through woods when other girls were in the kitchen. Most of all, she was 100 percent Jo, no matter what anyone said. She knew a simple truth that all brave girls know: her strength and her power was in her differences.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"> • Auggie, WONDER, by R.J. Palacio. Auggie is brave every single day in very small ways. He treats others with kindness when it would be so much easier to be mean. He goes to school (without his helmet!) when he’d rather stay safely at home. Auggie is actually one of the inspirations for my own book because his story made me think about how a girl and a teenager would react in a similar situation. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"> • Which brings me to my final brave protagonist—my own! Ava is the main character in SCARS LIKE WINGS, my recent debut young adult novel about a burn survivor who is heading back to school a year after a fire left her with severe scars. Ava fears no one will ever see her as more than the Burned Girl, but as she makes friends and lets people into her life again, she realizes she has a choice: stay isolated and angry, or let the people by her side help her fly. A lot of people in her life could look at Ava and think she’s brave because she survived the fire. She endured horrible surgeries and pain. But I think what makes Ava the bravest is her choice to let people back into her life and into her heart. She chooses to not let her scars define her, and instead defines her life by the amount of love she lets in and gives out. To me, that’s the ultimate bravery—choosing to be vulnerable, choosing to love, and choosing to live. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"> 16-year-old Ava Gardener is heading back to school one year after a house fire left her severely disfigured. She’s used to the names, the stares, the discomfort, but there’s one name she hates most of all: Survivor. What do you call someone who didn’t mean to survive? Who sometimes wishes she hadn’t? </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"> When she meets a fellow survivor named Piper at therapy, Ava begins to feel like she’s not facing the nightmare alone. Piper helps Ava reclaim the pieces of Ava Before the Fire, a normal girl who kissed boys and sang on stage. But Piper is fighting her own battle for survival, and when Ava almost loses her best friend, she must decide if the new normal she’s chasing has more to do with the girl in the glass—or the people by her side. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">New York Times bestselling author Meghan March continues the story of ruthless, calculating billionaire Jericho Forge in Luck of the Devil. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">My poker face has always been one of my greatest assets, along with my grit and determination. I was beholden to no one. Asked permission for nothing.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Then Jericho Forge took my life by storm.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I traded my freedom for something infinitely more precious, but I didn’t realize he was holding an unbeatable hand.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Now, all I have to do is survive the high-stakes game that is my life—with my heart intact.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">But not falling in love with Forge? That will take the luck of the devil. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Luck of the Devil is the second book of the Forge Trilogy, and should be read following Deal with the Devil. The Forge Trilogy concludes in Heart of the Devil.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I really enjoyed <b>Luck of the Devil.</b> We really see Jerchio and India's relationship grow. It doesn't come without its obstacles but I just love these two together. Jerchio Forge is definitely one of my favourite Meghan March men.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">As always the story was fast paced and addictive as all Meghan's book are. You get both India and Jerchio's POV and I love seeing how their both feeling about their relationship and All the happenings in the book. The ending! Why with the cliffhanger! Meghan March books always end in cliffhangers and I am dying for the next book. I can guarantee you the next book is going to be even more action packed and will continue to take me on a whirlwind and leave me breathless like Luck of the Devil did. <b>4 Stars! </b></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">She’s his best friend’s widow. Molly Boyd’s entire world unraveled when tragedy turned the man she loved into her greatest threat. Her ex-husband’s death has left her pregnant and alone, struggling to put her shattered life back together—and her confusing feelings for his best friend aren’t helping matters. For years Jase has been a solid, steady source of comfort and friendship. Now she can’t stop seeing him as something more. And just as she’s wrestling with her shifting feelings, a new danger from her ex’s past threatens everything—including her and her unborn child’s lives. But she’s always been the one.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"> Jase Weaver is an expert at unrequited love. Years ago he stood by and watched his best friend marry the woman of his dreams, and he’s endured his suffering in silence ever since. But when Carter’s self-destructive tailspin threatened Molly, Jase stepped in to make her safe. And when Carter died, Jase stepped up to be her rock. Now he can’t stay silent any longer. He’s wanted Molly forever and it’s time she knows it. So when a new threat against her emerges, Jase will put his own life on the line to protect her, no matter the cost.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="text-align: start;">Shattered Vows by Kayla Cross is the third book in the Crimson Point series but can be read as a standalone. It's a romantic suspense that I enjoyed. </span><br style="overflow-wrap: break-word; text-align: start;" /><br style="overflow-wrap: break-word; text-align: start;" /><span style="text-align: start;">We follow Jase who has always loved Molly but Molly was married to his best friend. When the two come together under tragedy and threat. They must decide to move forward together or apart.</span><br style="overflow-wrap: break-word; text-align: start;" /><br style="overflow-wrap: break-word; text-align: start;" /><span style="text-align: start;">The story had me hooked from page one, we start with a bang straight away. It slows in the middle but picks up for a fast paced ending. </span><br style="overflow-wrap: break-word; text-align: start;" /><br style="overflow-wrap: break-word; text-align: start;" /><span style="text-align: start;">We are told the story from both Jase and Molly. I liked both voices but preferred Jases a little more. What I found was theres a lot of internal thoughts from both characters so we get an insight to how there feeling. I did struggle with so much internal thought to start with but when I got used to it I enjoyed it. </span><br style="overflow-wrap: break-word; text-align: start;" /><br style="overflow-wrap: break-word; text-align: start;" /><span style="text-align: start;">Overall I enjoyed the characters and the storyline and am looking forward to reading more from Kaylea Cross.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>Synopsis</b>: </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">No one tells you what happens when you fall in love with your best friend. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">They don’t tell you it’s like waiting for the answer to a question no one can hear you ask. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Meet Brynn Darling. Successful event coordinator. Celebrity friends. At the top of her game. But after many failed attempts at finding love, and a realization that her best friend is clueless, she’s ready to move on. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Easton Cole has been in the friend zone since . . . well, forever. He fills the void with unimportant people and never gets attached. That is until Brynn begins seeing a guy who threatens everything he’s ever wanted. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">All bets are off.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Maybe it’ll never happen.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Maybe she’ll fall in love.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Maybe they’ll get their ever after . . . after all. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Real moments were scarce.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"> Wait, let me rephrase. Important moments were scarce. You know the ones. The ones that defined your life and shaped you into who you were always meant to be. Or who you always wanted to be.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"> That was the beauty of rarity. It forces you to look at your life from new angles – makes you appreciate the struggle you’ve endured before.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"> As I caught my breath, the delicious heaviness of Easton on me, I knew I was having one of those rare moments that would forever influence my life.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"> Easton pushed my hair back, his touch featherlight. I couldn’t understand how he could be so forceful – so strong – one minute, taking everything he could, and then so soft the next. Easton Cole was an enigma and I desperately wanted to know more.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">“My sweet Brynn,” he whispered in my ear, again and it sent shivers through my body. I was his.When he looked at me like that . . . I couldn’t breathe. He settled between my legs and I hummed with contentment, happy to have him close, comfortable enough to never let him leave.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"> The alarm on his phone began to ring and our reality smacked me in the face. “What happens next?” I asked in a small voice, feeling even smaller. I didn’t want to leave this room. I didn’t want to pop our bubble. I liked it.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Easton reached for his phone and silenced it. “We go home.”</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I blinked, unable to say anything. He didn’t answer my question. Not really. His response was far too literal for my taste, but what was I to do?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">So, instead, I kept quiet, watching the sun pour into our room, Easton’s skin turning a beautiful bronze color.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">After a while, we broke apart, each of us getting dressed in silence. He stole sweet glances as I piled my hair onto my head and I snuck a few peaks as he brushed and styled his hair in front of the mirror.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Euphoric and sad, I teetered on the brink of begging him to stay here forever. I had no idea what kind of future we faced on the other side of the hotel door.But my mother’s words rang in my ears, reminding me to take it slow.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Live in the moment, darlin’ girl. Don’t forget to exist in the present while you’re waiting for the future.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Once our things were packed and ready to go, I took a moment to look around the room – our safe haven where so many truths were shared.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I’d forever remember this hotel and the way the room smelled. The way the sheets felt against my skin and the sounds Easton made in my ear as we made love. I'd remember all of it.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">But what I’ll remember most is the way Easton looked at me and the way he made me feel without using any words at all.</span><br />

Her sass knows no bounds and almost always has something kind to say, no matter the situation. She runs a platform of love and strives to bring those attributes out in every book she writes.

She loves binge-watching Supernatural, drooling over Dean, Sam and Cas, and going to conventions. She also enjoys spreading love any chance she can. So, if you run into her, give her a hug or a high-five. She guarantees they're magic.

Mine has been great apart from I still can't get my sleep pattern back to normal since Christmas it's doing my head in. Hopefully this week is better. I read two books this week one being Shattered Vows by Kaylea Cross, which I will have a review up next week as part of a blog tour. Have a great week.</span></span></div>

</div>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br clear="none" style="overflow-wrap: break-word;" />Although I have a creative day job sometimes I don't get to be as creative as I want to be. My mind is always churning. When I started my Etsy shop I was stuck in a rut of work, TV, sleep... I needed a hobby. Etsy provided me with the perfect outlet to channel my energy, combine my love for design and love of books and be excited about creating again! It also helped me to get back into reading.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">I get my inspiration from favorite books or movies, current reads, author quotes or something I hear someone say. As cliche as it sounds inspiration is all around us and every idea comes to me through different channels. Once I get an idea that I am excited about it gets stuck in me, spinning around itching to get out! My recent Hobbit meals mug release was floating around in my head for about 4 months before I acted on it. Putting out new ideas is always thrilling and a little scary because you never know if people will like it as much as I do!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">My favorites are always changing, usually the answer is what ever I have designed most recently. I will say that my favorite pin is the As Travars pin inspired by ADSOM series. I really wanted the pin to look like a coin that I could use to travel between worlds and I think I captured that.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Well, I'm always coming out with new bookmarks. I like to draw to relax. I would love to add more woodmarks and campfire mugs in the future. When I released the Hobbit mug I had 5 other ideas drawn up. I recently shared one more of those and hopefully will get to share the others!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="text-align: start;"><b>Devil With the Devil </b>is the first book in Megahn March's new Adult Contempoary romance Trilogy which was one of my highly anticipated 2019 reads and I am glad to say I really enjoyed it. From page one I was hooked. Meghan March has a way of hooking you in and just taking you on a ride whether you are ready for it or not. This book was a very fast paced, addictive book and will leave you with so many feels.</span><br style="overflow-wrap: break-word; text-align: start;" /><br style="overflow-wrap: break-word; text-align: start;" /><span style="text-align: start;">We get duel POV from both our protagonists. I liked both India and Jerchio Forge but Forge was such a dick... I loved him. He was arrogant, ballsy, said what he wanted however crude and shocking it was, did want the hell he wanted, was an absolute pig but I absolutely loved him! Under all that hot man was a little bit of light and I cant wait to undercover more in the next books. I also really enjoyed the additional players in the story and can't wait to see what they bring to the table. </span><br style="overflow-wrap: break-word; text-align: start;" /><br style="overflow-wrap: break-word; text-align: start;" /><span style="text-align: start;">The storyline as always in Megahn's books was a whirlwind of twists and shocks and I of course loved them. We start of with a main storyline that I enjoyed however a characters reaction to the situation when it comes to a head really didn't sit right with me but it's never all it seems so am open to discover more. Theres always smoke tendrils waiting around the cornor to take you in a different direction and I love it. I do I have to say I do have my suspicions of where part of the story might be heading but am excited to find out. </span><br style="overflow-wrap: break-word; text-align: start;" /><br style="overflow-wrap: break-word; text-align: start;" /><span style="text-align: start;">Overall I really enjoyed this first book in the series its a good soild start to the trilogy and I can't wait for more<b>. 4 Stars</b></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Hi! How has your week been? I survived my first week back at work after the holidays. I was so glad to get to the weekend. This week I only finished one book and I feel like am in a little reading slump but I'm trying to get myself out of it. Instead of reading on the way to work I have been listening to the Hamilton soundtrack and I am addicted. I know am late to the bandwagon but it's just so good. I love L</span></span><span style="background-color: transparent;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">in-Manuel Miranda! I think my favourite songs are Right Hand Man, Satisfied and Who lives , who dies, who tells your story but I do love the whole thing.</span></span></span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">So on the blog this week I only had two posts. I promised myself at the start of 2019 if I didn't feel like blogging I wouldn't and would when I did. This week was kinda of a bust but as I said I did get two posts up which you can check out!</span></span></div>

<b><i><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">"Hating to love you was a book I had a great time reading. Erin Rylie is a great new voice in the adult contempoary romance world!"</span></i></b><br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Hating to love you is Erin Rylie's debut novel and it's one I really enjoyed. I had a great time with the characters in Hating to love you. When I was reading I didn't want to put the book down. The only way to describe the writing is addictive. You want to eat it all up. It's witty and fun with a side of serious thrown in. However I did find that the leading ladies thoughts where a little repetitive at the start but Erin Rylie changed my mind on that as by the end I kinda understood the characters doubts and her repeated thoughts on it. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The characters felt three dimensional which I like. I liked both Rafe and Sophies voice and Rafe was quite Swoonworthy. I loved the relationship between Rafe and his best friend and Sophie and her friends. All the little mentions of books and movies where so fantastic.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The story is of over coming insecurities, grabbing on to chances and taking a leap of faith when you find yourself in a situation you didn't expect and having your friends by your side the whole way.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Overall I really enjoyed the story and am looking forward to Carlos and Kesleys story in April. That ending! </span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Christmas Camp was a good, light Christmas read that I enjoyed. It is written by Karen Schaler who is a screenwriter and the book comes across like a movie. It is in fact being adapted for the big screen. For the first half of the book I was engaged but toward the middle it slowed down and I lost a little interest, it did pick itself back up for a great ending.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">What I really enjoyed was the story and characters. Haley lives and breaths her job in advertising and really wants to make partner. A new job comes up working with a Christmas toy company and Haley wants the job but her boss doesn't think she has the Christmas spirit to pull it off and gives it to someone else. She needs this contract to make partner. Her boss makes her a deal, she go to Christmas Camp and if she survives she can pitch for the contract and our story begins. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">There is a romance in Christmas Camp which I did like however I didn't feel a lot of chemistry between the two characters to start with. I felt it was very one sided. We do get perspective from both characters although it's more toward Haley than Jeff which could be why I didn't feel the chemistry to start with but I did feel it by the end of the book. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The writing really made the visual of the cosy cabin setting and of things Christmas come alive however I did struggle a little with the story jumping between first and third person but once I got used to it I was able to emerge myself in the story. Overall I enjoyed reading Christmas Camp. It made a perfect Christmas fireside read.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Conor is the sixth book in A Zaverlli 's Boston Underworld series and this is a series I really enjoy and Conor was no exception. The series is a dark contempoary romance mafia series that is not for the faint hearted. These men are bad, they are loyal to only their brothers and their woman. They are violent, dominating and unrelenting but they have such soft hearts under neath and I love them. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Conor I think has the softest heart, he's such a sweetheart. I really enjoyed switching perspectives between Conor and his love interest Ivy. A Zaverlli writing is addictive it pulls you in for the ride. Even though I love the fast paced writing, in parts it was a little too fast for me. Conor was shorter than the other books in the series at 186 pages and I would have liked it to be a little more stretched out but overall I really enjoyed this book as well as the series as a whole. If you like mafia books and dark romances I highly recommend this series. </span><br />

I of course knew every word to every song and hadn't saw the movie. Yes I am that person. My sister got me the DVD yes a DVD they still exist for Christmas and I really enjoyed it. What's your favourite songs from the movie? I of course love them all but I love This is Me and Rewrite the stars. But my favourite has to be From Now On.

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">The story behind these two books is, this author has a new release out in February and I have it on my TBR but haven't read anything from her previously. I was out shopping and just happened to come across some of her books by chance for £1 each, yes a £1 and there brand new. I don't read a ton of YA now but these are fun, funny YA books with teen drama and sometimes that's what am looking for so they came home with me.</span></div>

This one happened late at night when I was scrolling through Netgalley. So some info is it releases next week on the 9th January, it seems to be a book set in a spin off series to a series this author has been writing for years and it's a sports romance. Firstly I don't like sports romances and I hate reading books out of order even if you technically can BUT I am so intrigued by the synopsis it's going to be my next read after a trilogy I'm currently reading!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">I loved Buffy the vampire slayer when I was younger and I am really excited for the first book in the Slayer series which starts after the events of Buffy. It's really exciting it's set in the same universe as the previous TV show and from reviews I have seen if you don't know anything about the Tv show you can still enjoy it but there's a nod if you loved the TV Show. (Slayer doesn't realise in the UK till February the above date is the US date)</span></div>

I was so excited for it and it didn't disappoint. It is a Book set in the All Souls Trilogy by Deborah Harkness and it just felt like coming home.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">I read the <b>Vicious Cycle Trilogy by Katie Ashley</b> early in 2018 and spoiler it made my top ten list of the year. I decided to then pick up her newest release <b>Running Mate </b>and was so disappointed. It's my lowest rated Book of the year. It just felt so unedited and the writing was just all over the place. Now I do think it's been 're released so I do want to give it another try but I don't have high hopes.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Deal with the Devil is the first in the Forge Trilogy and I have actually read this already as I kindly received an arc for review and it didn't disappoint. It is an adult contemporary romance that has a hot but infuriating alpha which make's an intense romance and a high paced action packed story.

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">The art of losing has really caught my eye. It is a YA Contemporary that deals with grief, pain and explores honesty and forgiveness.

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">This is a book I'm really looking forward to. It's a YA Contemporary that follows two teens 14 years after "The Troubles" ended in Northern Ireland and I suppose the repercussions that still are left behind. I am from Northern Ireland and was 10 years old when the troubles ended. I lived outside the main conflict areas but I still remember things happening in my own town as a repercussion of "The Troubles" and am really looking forward to picking this one up.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="background-color: white;">Meghan March in 2018 became an auto buy author for me. I am so glad I found her books. Not did one of her books make my top ten list but two. The first being a 2017 Release of which I read the whole trilogy but Ruthless King is my fave. This book took me on a ride and didn't let go.</span><span style="text-align: left;"> It went from a good 3.5 stars to 4.5 stars in the last 10 pages. So many feels, shocks, cliff hangers, mortally grey men, dark romance, New Orleans! It was just fantastic and the rest of the trilogy didn't disappoint.</span></span></div>

This whole trilogy released in 2018 and Meghan March cemented herself in my auto buy list with this trilogy. I just love the romance, the darkness, the story and I swear the most twists and turns and cliff hangers I have ever read!</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">I read the first book in this series last year and really enjoyed it. I also read both The Good luck Sister and the subsequent third book this year however The Good Luck Sister was my favourite of the two. This is a feel good contempoary romance story and I really enjoyed the protagonist in The Good Luck Sister giving it 4 Stars.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">This was by far one of my fave 2018 releases and I am highly anticipating its sequel in 2019. It's a YA Contemporary Romance that follows Daisy as she enters the world of Royalty when her sister becomes engaged to the Crown Prince of Scotland. It was funny, and serious at times and just a joy to read.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">How you like me now was Holly's adult debut and after reading one of her YA books in 2017 and really enjoying it I was excited to pick up her adult book. However I didn't and I actually own a signed copy so I will get to it in 2019.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Again I read one of Jenn's books in 2017 and really enjoyed it. Starry Eyes is one I also hope to get to in 2019 before her next release in April.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I have only read some of JR Wards Black Dagger Brotherhood books and really enjoyed them however I really want to read some of her adult Contemporaries and this is high on my TBR.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">This one I hope to get to in a few weeks I actually recently got it for review and I can't wait to pick it up.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">I have done many of these posts over the last few years. I get excited about blogging and I do loads of posts then I lose interest again! And I think the main reason was my content felt very static and was just the same book hauls, wrap ups (when I did them) and blog tour posts and I just wasn't feeling it. Another reason I think is since I started my blog in 2013 my reading tastes have changed and I didn't feel my blog moved along with that. I was mainly a YA focused blog and I have went from reading YA to mostly adult romances/erotica with a few contempoary YA books thrown in that I really enjoy. Because of this I felt that I couldnt share content I wanted as I didn't want to offend the people that followed my content for YA when all of a sudden am talking sex and romance. I also didn't feel comfortable sharing that content which I know is all on me. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br style="overflow-wrap: break-word;" />In 2019 I want to get back into blogging what I want. I want the fun to come back and that's means posting what I want when I want and also coming up with some fresh new content. There will still be hauls and wrap ups but there will be lots of new content that I would love to read which I think you will all like reading as well. </span><span style="font-family: georgia, "times new roman", serif;">From talking about all things romance and book boyfriends to discussions on various book topics within the romance genre. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br style="overflow-wrap: break-word;" />That being said its not like there will be no YA content I still do pick a YA book every so often that am interested in but for the most it will be adult romance books and am really excited to share them with you. <br style="overflow-wrap: break-word;" /><br style="overflow-wrap: break-word;" />Over the next few days starting December 25th I will have some favourites of the year which I love doing and then in January I will be hitting you with more posts. Let me know in the comments below what you like seeing on book blogs!</span>Reading Away The Dayshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09897729866956397050noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7565595843398547457.post-51171453183847241052018-12-01T09:57:00.001-08:002018-12-01T09:57:58.706-08:00Him With Beard Book Blitz #giveaway<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
