Stacking The Shelves 2017 (1): January

Stacking The Shelves is all about sharing the books you are adding to your shelves, may it be physical or virtual. This means you can include books you buy in physical store or online, books you borrow from friends or the library, review books, gifts and of course ebooks! If you want to find out more about Stacking The Shelves, please visit the official launch page!


Good morning my loves, welcome to my first post of 2017 for the stacking the shelves meme.  I have been hauling books for so many weeks and I really need to get back on track of sharing what is coming in, not just for y'all but so I can remember when I got things as well.  Here's my video if you want to watch first & then everything is listed with links to the goodreads pages for each book.

First Haul is my Savers haul. Fund a new store to buy books for cheap and I'm all excited about it.  Included in this haul are the following: 

Private Lessons by Donna Hill  No idea what it's about but it's Donna I just pick it up.  Auto buy author. 

Married for their Miracle Baby by Soraya Lane Never heard of her and I loved the synopsis, so why not. 

A Midsummer Night's Romp by Katie Macalister  one of my favorite Romantic Comedy writers so yeah I snagged it.  

Nightseer by Laurell K Hamilton. I wanted to see what she has done outside of the two major series i have on my shelves.  

Love In The Time of Cholera by Gabriel Garcia Marquez a very well known book it's been on the horizon for me for a while so I wanted to try it.  

A Taste of Reality by Kimberla Lawson Roby  a book by Kimberla?? Snag it.  

I hauled a few books that have to do with my Lora Leigh challenge:

1. Soul Deep 
2. Aiden's Charity
3. The Breed Next Door (ebook)
4. Jacob;s Faith
5. Styx;s Storm
6. Megan's Mark

And last but not least I hauled the final book written by L.A.Banks before she passed away.  I'm both excited and saddened to have this book in my hands because once I read it, that will be it, there will be no more from her catalog on my shelves.  I purchased Shadow Walker

And that's it folks that's all I've hauled for now, there should be another one of these next month. I'm hoping my hauling will match or be less than my read pile.  What did you get this week?? Share int he comments down below and I'll swing on by.

Thanks for stopping by and have a fabulous reading week.

Synopsis:

The Montgomery Ink series continues with the most unlikely of romances between the one that got away and the man who can show her the world. Holly Rose fell in love with a Montgomery, but left him when he couldn’t love her back. She might have been the one to break the ties and ensure her ex’s happy ending, but now Holly’s afraid she’s missed out on more than a chance at forever. Though she’s always been the dependable good girl, she’s ready to take a leap of faith and embark on the journey of a lifetime. Brody Deacon loves ink, women, fast cars, and living life like there’s no tomorrow. The thing is, he doesn’t know if he has a tomorrow at all. When he sees Holly, he’s not only intrigued, he also hears the warnings of danger in his head. She’s too sweet, too innocent, and way too special for him. But when Holly asks him to help her grab the bull by the horns, he can’t help but go all in. As they explore Holly’s bucket list and their own desires, Brody will have to make sure he doesn’t fall too hard and too fast. Sometimes, people think happily ever afters don’t happen for everyone, and Brody will have to face his demons and tell Holly the truth of what it means to truly live life to the fullest…even when they’re both running out of time

I really enjoyed this novella. I went right ahead and purchased all the other books, I had the first book but the others I purchased. I can't wait to dive into them.  I can't believe I hadn't heard about this series before what was I doing with my life.

I really loved how realistic this seemed.  It was a simple, sweet romance, that was a really quick read that engaged you from the beginning.  I absolutely fell in love with Holly, she was such an amazing woman.  Reminded me so much of me; she was willing to try some great adventures even if to others they didn't seem that wild.  I loved how much she was confident with her life and love but also like most women would have her moments of doubt.  When I was in college I really into trying everything I could, and I used so many books to help me with ideas, I really loved finding new things and places to go, even if no one else wanted to go.    I really loved that for Holly she was doing this not because she was completely unhappy with her life but because she didn't want to be bored. She wanted to have a little bit of excitement, sometimes just trying a new restaurant was enough and sometimes she went all out.  I loved that Brody understood and complimented that instead of being the reason, he was there to back her.

Reading her and Brody's budding friendship that bloomed into something more.  They really laid the foundation for a good friendship first and that is what made them so awesome together. I really enjoyed their conversations while at the same time Carrie gave us the space to imagine how they really interacted.

I really enjoyed the glimpses of old friends and saw how much they have bloomed as well.  My favorite parts where the conversations in between the friends, the way they all seemed to care so much about each other and had each other's backs. I can't wait to completely catch up and get the books coming out this year as well.

This is such a lovely book and I kept imagining that the boys here knew the Marked Men from Jay Crownover's series and it made me love the series even more ( I know they don't crossover, but hey that's what fan fiction is for).

I enjoyed this and finished in just one day and have already started in on the others and would highly recommend this one.

 ★★★★1/2☆

Happy Reading

2017 Weekly Wrap Up 8-15th

Welcome back to the blog my loves. I hope you've had a rally good reading week.  I really had another good reading week this week.  It's not in quantity it's definitely in the quality of the books I read.  This week I completed three books and got three more on the hooks, so hopefully next week I'll have those on the read list.

Now let's talk about what I read.  I read A Christmas Prayer by Kimberla Lawson Roby.  I ended up giving this one four stars. I really got engaged to the story and wanted to read more so this went quickly.  I enjoyed the length of the story but wished we had gotten some more from it.  I will have a full review later.  *although I might save it for next yule*

I also read another my ARCs that I have on the list, I'm looking forward to sharing my full review later in the month on the blog on January 26th. Any Time Any Place is the second book in the family saga and I loved it.  I have once again added have added the first book on my tbr.

Then I decided to try out the erotica series I was recommended by one of my favorite Booktubers. The Reading Outlaw This series s called the The Beyond Series by Kit Rocha and it is fantastically erotic and sensual.  I can't wait to read the rest of the series.  This is so steamy, definitely highly recommend.

I'm going into next week with my reading lists still wide open and I'm just going to roll with it.  Let me know what you are doing on your challenges.

Book Title: Dark Slayer ( Dark Carpathian )
Author: Christine Feehan

Publisher: Berkeley Hardcover
Format: Hardcover

Synopsis:

A rumor has persisted in the vampire world of a dark slayer—a woman—who travels with a wolf pack and any among the vampires who meets her is slain. Mysterious, elusive and seemingly impossible to kill, she is the one hunter who strikes terror into the hearts of the vampires. Ivory Malinov is that woman, betrayed by her own people, by her family, by everyone she held dear and she hunts during the night with only her pack to sustain her sanity. She has not spoken to or been with any other person for a hundred years other than to feed from or slay. She stumbles across a body on her way back to her lair and discovers—her lifemate. He is Razvan, branded a hated criminal, detested, feared and loathed by all Carpathians—he is also a dragonseeker of one of the greatest lineages of all Carpathians Held captive nearly his entire life by his grandfather, the Carpathians bitterest enemy, he is seeking the dawn to end his terrible existence. This is a story of two people, horribly betrayed, wounded in spirit, fighters to the death, who must struggle to unite against a common enemy.

For the first time ever, the woman is the hunter (at least in the ones I have read so far) this book comes after Dark Curse; where they discuss the issues associated with female hunters. hilarity ensues when Gregori opens his mouth, but it's well worth reading.

Ivory survived something that would have killed the average Carpathian & she did it in the most unique way.  She then creates wolves for herself to run with a pack, she is KICKASS with a capitol K.    Ivory endured when others would have died and she made something of herself that encompassed & changed her world.  Raz arguable the most hated Carptathian trapped by his own family & left for dead he finally makes his way to freedom to the cleansing sun & his lifemate finds him (always at the nick of time that these men are found).

I love the role reversal the two have, that she is the one he must learn from. That she has the experience he lacks as a warrior & yet he despite his experiences has the emotional balance she needs.  I love that they balance each other out.  I love that they needed each other & that they fit together without a great struggle & he didn't try to control her from the get go.  they worked well & I loved their dynamic.

I particularly loved that it wasn't physical strength. Razvan possessed in abundance that drew her to him it was sheer strength of his character, the absolute well of determined spirit deep inside him.  He was so steady, a rock for her. Check out page 235, the scene there was emotional.

I love this book it has become my all time favorite Carpathian novel.  Razvan is an amazing man; his zen like approach to life just drew me in. I love that Ivory was the physically stronger one but still needed him emotionally.

It's a definite must read. Either purchase or check your local library to see if they have a copy. However you do, make sure get this one it's well worth the time to read.

Synopsis:

Cath Talarico knows a mistake when she makes it, and God knows she’s made her share. So many, in fact, that this Chicago girl knows London is her last, best shot at starting over. But bad habits are hard to break, and soon Cath finds herself back where she has vowed never to go . . . in the bed of a man who is all kinds of wrong: too rich, too classy, too uptight for a free-spirited troublemaker like her. Nev Chamberlain feels trapped and miserable in his family’s banking empire. But beneath his pinstripes is an artist and bohemian struggling to break free and lose control. Mary Catherine—even her name turns him on—with her tattoos, her secrets, and her gamine, sex-starved body, unleashes all kinds of fantasies. When blue blood mixes with bad blood, can a couple that is definitely wrong for each other ever be perfectly right? And with a little luck and a lot of love, can they make last night last a lifetime?

Repost From my old blog. Updated and edited.

I'll be honest, I didn't get much work done yesterday because of this book. It was slow at work so I read while I should have been doing 'busy' work, you know the crap that normally doesn't get done during a regular week, you do when there is nothing left. Yeah I said screw that & stuck my nose to the phone screen so I could read this book.

I was totally engaged and engrossed I almost didn't get any sleep trying to finish this book.  I knew I loved this book within the first chapter when Cath had me laughing out loud on a crowded bus.  Cath is witty, sarcastic, funny and the kind of woman I could totally be friends with, so I loved her as a character.   Plus she works with the arts, like knitting and the awesomeness of history and knitting, yeah I was all over that.

City, good gawd City, can I have one of him served up please??!!! What a guy, what a man. I just wow, He was everything awesome that scene with them after he blind date?? Especially when she said 'don't murder me" I was laughing and snorting so much on the bus, the guy next to me moved.  You could feel the chemistry from them, they were great from the first. Especially when you realized City liked her as much as she liked him

I really wanted them to get together, I just knew that the crap was going to hit the fan when he took her home.  I couldn't wait to read the fireworks between Cath & his mother, they were also awesome, especially when they went head to head, then Cath did what she does so well.  If I was Nev I would have kicked my siblings' a**, you not pulling this crap round here. Nope not going to happen sir..

It's a good engaging read. I had quite a few laughs at Cath's expense, I totally get that she doesn't want anymore mistakes, and Nev's answer to that just floored me.  I love them together, I really loved the ending, I personally loved that Cath had extensive tattoos and was such a buttoned up woman at work; & that Nev's job was so boring but he was such a passionate artist. Just goes to show you never know.

A definite must read, it was extremely fast and funny, & wasn't too outlandish like so many other romance scenarios now a days, which made it even more fun to read, because you could totally see this happening.

Have a fun time reading my loves.

2017 Week 1 Wrap Up Jan 1-7

Hi My loves,
I wanted to start linking my videos here:


I'm so excited I did so well this week for reading. I'm so excited about all the books I managed to get read.  I literally flew threw my books and I'm loving the motivation it's creating.  Here is my Lora Leigh Challenge video showcasing the books on my shelves that I wanted to read.

So this week I managed to knock 5 books from the Lora Leigh challenge off the list. I read two of the books I actually had on my bookshelf and three books I purchased to read for the challenge.  These include :

I really enjoyed reading these and blew through them really quickly.  I absolutely loved this series I'm loving the transition from the Ellorascave series then the other books from Berkley.  I can't wait to follow the rest of the series which I have on my shelves.

Then because I really wanted to continue reading some of the books I had laid out in my tbr, I pulled Adoring Ink by Carrie Ann Ryan which comes out this month. I really enjoyed Holly's story and can't wait to share with you my full review.

And then because I wanted to know the story that was the background to the Adoring Ink book so I snagged Ink Endured and really enjoyed that one and needed to just read the rest of the series as well. (I now own all of them, and this is why my TBR is never going down. )

So there you have it I enjoyed my reading week with almost all my books being four star reads for me this weeks.  Enjoy the video where I share a little more about each and I will see you next week.

Oh Yeah I'm now down to 358 books to complete my yearly challenge.  I'm also now down from 28 books to be read in the  Lora Leigh Challenge to having only 23 left. Yeah I'm loving my progress this year so far!!!

Another down home cowboy contemporary story. Yeah I'm here for it.

My next challenge is to read the catalogue of Brenda Jackson.  I have most of the Westmoreland Series on my shelves and I want to get them read this yer and work my way through all the other books by her that I own and haven't read yet.  

I know I personally own close to 75 books by her, but she's written like 200, so I want to get started on reading them, I know she will be on this perpetual list for a few years and I'm okay with that. Because there are so many books I'm going to link instead to her webpage with her Bibliography.  

These are just some of the challenges I'm taking part in this year. And You?? Oh there are going to be even more challenges I will be signing up for.  Let's share in the comments so we can continue to motivate each other.  Happy Reading and good luck with your goals this year my loves.
