Review: Awaken Me

Awaken Me by Alex Grayson My rating: 5 of 5 stars ***** April's 5 Star Review ***** 5 Dreams and Screams What do you do when you lose the single most important thing in your life? You grieve. You sink so deep in a hole, you can no longer see the top. All you see is dark. Your life becomes dull and dreary. You withdraw from your friends, lash out at the ones your closest to, and become so absorbed in your pain, you feel the only way out is to end it permanently. Your heart no longer pumps properly and you can never get enough air in your lungs. You drink, you neglect your health, and you rent dirty hotel rooms with the sole purpose of ending your pain in them. Guilt eats at you for not being at the one place you were needed the most. And you become angry because you were left behind. Or at least, that’s what I did. Until she came along… Chris, the bane of my existence. She’s always there in the background, watching me, trying to ‘be there’ for me. Bu

Summer Ever After by M.C. Cerny My rating: 5 of 5 stars ***** April's 5 Star Review ***** 5 Dreams and Screams I want to say a Big Thank you to MC for giving me an opportunity of reading this book for an honest review! It was just supposed to be one summer for Abigail Holliday. One summer to escape from under the thumb of her controlling father. One summer to escape from the fast pace LA life in a law firm. Just one summer of peace with her boyfriend Lucas to see where they were going... Instead, she’s left with more questions and disappointments as reality sets in. Heading north to Gold Beach, Abby finds Roman Winters with not only her suitcase, but baggage of his own. Now Abby has feelings she doesn’t know what to do with. Roman Winters is a man used to relying on himself. A tragic past leaves him trusting no one, laying down no roots--until a blonde bombshell with a snarky attitude wakes up parts of him he thought long dead. He’s drawn to her: tea

Review: Pretty Dancer

Pretty Dancer by Cora Graham My rating: 5 of 5 stars ***** April's 5 Star Review ***** 5 Dreams and Screams Thank you Dreams and Screams Bookaholics and Cora Graham for the opportunity of reading Pretty Dancer Meet Lilly - talented dancer, quick mouthed, take no shit tough girl who's also good at hiding the fact that she's scared. She doesn't believe in true love or happily ever afters. Unless you count the unbreakable love she has for her overprotective, bullheaded twin brother, who also happens to be her knight in shining armor - which she doesn't. Kind of hard to love when you can't trust, and trust was something that got shattered along with the rest of her years ago. A lot was taken from her at a young age. She's never gotten over it as much as she's just refused to deal with it. Her twin brother and quirky best friend are the only ones she lets see her true self. Her only dream is to get accepted into The Elite Acade

Neuhold for giving me the opportunity of reading this book. Asher: When most people first set eyes on me they assume I’m a delinquent, a thug, or at the very least that I’m in a band. But, looks can be deceiving. I never thought I’d get sick of random hook ups with more than willing college co-eds, but that scene is getting old. And, I really never expected to fall for an adorable, sexy, and shy. But, sometimes things don’t turn out how you expect. Eve: I’ve never kissed a boy, heck I’ve never even been on a date before. How I ended up catching the eye of a sexy, tattooed playboy at my very first college party I’ll never know. He’s way out of my league…but maybe it’s finally my chance to let loose a little and find out who I really am. That’s what college is for, right? OMG I
