Promises Hurt (Promises #1) by Elle Brooks

By

I wasn't planning on falling for Ethan Jamison, hell I wasn't planning on our paths ever crossing. He’s the most popular guy at school and a complete player. Me; I’m the perpetual good girl, trying to carry out one last request. But when you make a promise, how far do you go to see it through? 

~ Blair

It’s a running joke that I’m a terrible liar, if only people knew the truth. My whole life has been spent making excuses and deflecting questions. I was pretty good at it until Blair Thomas entered my world. She saw through the mask that everyone is so willing to accept. She makes me want to tell her all my secrets, but can she promise to keep them?

~ Ethan





First let me start off by saying you’re going to need to go ahead and grab a box of tissues or two before you start this book. The story begins with a flashback of Blair dealing with one of the most difficult times of her life. Then flips to a few years later when she meets Ethan, the schools notorious, rock star/bad boy who has a scary secret. Ethan is just trying to hang on until graduation so that he can escape his person hell at home. Blair is trying to complete a bucket list left for her by her best friend. I don’t want to give to much away because this is definitely one you’re going to want to read for yourself. It pulls you in from the very first page, I couldn’t put it down. I lost myself in the characters, the book never lagged, and I was definitely never bored. Such a great blend of romance, difficult, yet relatable, situations, and adventure. Highly recommended, and I cannot wait for the next one!

They say I have the voice of an angel. I almost gave all that up, thanks to a traumatic experience at the start of my career. Instead of letting it define me, I chose to rise above. I showed everyone what a woman on a mission could accomplish, and now I’m living my dream. After one chance meeting, my entire world changes. Austin is every woman’s fantasy, and he wants me. While the attraction is there for me as well, I don’t need any distractions right now. Austin Jones Focused. Driven. I’m the man I am today because I never let the idea of settling down disrupt being the best I can during my hockey career. But then Reese floats into my life and everything changes, and no...

Death of the Spirit (Crossing Death #2) by Rick Chiantaretto Blog Tour

By
Death of the Spirit *Crossing Death #2* Genre~Dark Fantasy/Occult I have no idea who I am anymore. In Los Angeles, I would have given anything to go home to Orenda, my world where magic was alive and nature spoke to me. Now that I'm back I feel out of place, burdened with responsibility. The human part of me misses the simplicity of Earth, the mage part begs for connection with magic, and the demon part? I don't want to admit that exists. As the darkness inside me grows, I’ll learn to sacrifice for the greater good, as my people have always done. In order to save my family (both mage and human alike), I must face my nightmare, embrace the demon, and descend into the shadowy world of my enemy—the Hell of the Damned. Once there, I will have nothing left to fear but myself: Edmund Gavel, human, mage, demon... maybe monster.
