Colleen Hoover - Layla

Layla by Colleen Hoover
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Bizarre Love Triangle

I really love the premise, it was unique. And in it's own paranormal way, a true love story. Leeds and Layla are characters that connect in that unusual way that you just know it will be a forever love story. True soul mates. But that's all I'm going to give away.

I will say that the story moved a little to slow for me, I did have to fight my urge to walk away. But that's me. I need a more fast paced storyline. Do I think it was all worth it in the end, sorta. I think the ending could have had a little more spark than say the "riding off into the sunset" feel I had. But I don't regret reading the book, it was that unique of a story.

Darynda Jones - Bewitched (Betwixted & Between #2)

Bewitched by Darynda Jones
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

If you love the Charley Davidson series, you will adore this one.

Defiance and her bff Annette are so clumsily funny. Even in the middle of serious witchery problems, hauntings, kidnappings, and trying to launch a business, they seem to take everything in stride. Find time to remember the little things, including laughter.

I tried to explain the plot to a friend and just couldn't. There are so many wonderful characters with full backstories that it's impossible to relate it to someone without it being a really long conversation. I want everyone to read this series!!

And as usual, we have a cliff hanger moment that me yelling "Oh no you didn't!!!". Thankfully, the next book comes out February 15th so I won't have to wait long. ...... for Roane.

Callie Hart - Riot Rules (Crooked Sinners #2)

Riot Rules by Callie Hart
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Ok, to start, I was confused at first until I realized that this story starts before Elodie and Wren. Before Elodie even shows up at the school.

So once I got "situated", I still had trouble clicking with Dash. There was just something off about him, but never fear, I love him now. Maybe it was the confusing timeline in the beginning, don't know. I just wasn't "in" to the story. Skip ahead a few chapters and I'm in love with both of them. Knowing Carrie's backstory and Dash's secret love for the piano, you can't help but become attached to them.

And Sadly, we have to go thru some heartbreak, the reliving of the Fitz storyline, and you just kind of break emotionally before it comes together in the end. Not going to say who saves who, but it was an epic love story moment.

Now we have Wren and Dash, whatever will knock Pax off his pedestal?
