<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit; font-size: small;">There’s something deliciously perverse about staring through the clear glass. All of my senses engage as I wait in line—the fragrance that fills the air as the fire crackles beneath the foil wrapped treats wafts under my nose, the beauty in each and every small package as they line the shelves with tiny dots and colored sprinkles mesmerizes me, the sound made as the silver sheet is peeled back to reveal the magnificence it holds captivates me, and the anticipation of the taste makes my mouth water. Ummm... just thinking of the first bite into the moist brown exterior with its bittersweet Belgian chocolate complimenting the flavor of the Madagascar bourbon vanilla that oozes from its inside has me trembling. The black and white cupcake—it’s simply perfection.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit; font-size: small;">Amidst the skyscrapers in Los Angeles’ South Park neighborhood, Sprinkles is a gem tucked away for those of us who seek out a small piece of heaven. I don’t come here often, but when I do it’s for that one special treat. The menu describes it as, “Yin and Yang.” An ancient proverb that says, “Complementary opposites, such as light and dark, day and night, and masculine and feminine, seemingly may exist as contrary forces, but are actually interconnected.” Simply put, it says one gives rise to the other and it’s true— opposites attract. Without the vanilla inside, one could not possibly crave the chocolate outside—looking at the two parts united has me drooling.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit; font-size: small;">“You know what they say about staring through the glass,” a deep husky voice says from behind me.</span></div>
<div style="font: normal normal normal 12px/normal 'Times New Roman'; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit; font-size: small;">His words tingle my skin and my gaze snaps up. “Excuse me?” I stop short, in a daze, not even sure what he just said I was so lost in my thoughts.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit; font-size: small;">He chuckles. “You know what they say about staring through the glass,” he repeats.My eyes blink and come into focus on the upward tilt of his full lips. Then my eyes move to his smooth pale skin flecked with a light stubble, his nose seemingly sculpted even with a slight imperfection in its slope, large eyes with the most unusual gray color swirling from within, and chocolate brown colored hair framing his face in pieces—I’m not sure if he has just rolled out of bed or if product molds it just so. Either way, he is utterly beautiful.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit; font-size: small;">“Again, I’m sorry but I have no idea what you’re talking about.” I notice his eyes sweep over me and my heart starts pounding.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit; font-size: small;">“Through the Looking Glass,” he responds in a dangerously husky voice.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit; font-size: small;">This time when he speaks I catch an accent, ever so slight but extremely sexy. It reminds me of how Robert De Nero talks, just not as loud or fast. I continue to stare, unable to respond. I notice that his physique is long and lean. He’s dressed in worn jeans that fit him perfectly. His orange laced hiking boots scream I don’t conform. A pair of tortoiseshell sunglasses hang from the V of his gray sweater, which clings to his body perfectly. And an outdoor vest tops the outfit. It throws me off. It makes him look more like an Abercrombie model than a James Dean type. It’s a navy blue down and quilted one with a silver zipper. I don’t know why, but something about his outfit, about this man, captivates me.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit; font-size: small;">He steps closer. His warm breath whispers across my neck. “Through the Looking Glass is the sequel to Alice in Wonderland. When Alice gets too close to the glass, she falls in and starts on a crazy journey,” he tells me as his arm waves in the air with a green ticket on display. Stepping closer, his gaze cuts from mine to the glass case as he hands his number to the clerk whose wearing a cute brown apron with the word Sprinkles scripted across it.</span></div>

My irritation flares as I glance at my number—97.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;">I swear he’s goading me. But then he tips his chin and a sexy, smoldering grin passes over his lips and I’m not so sure anymore. He turns to look at me one more time before he exits, and excitement flushes over my face. I nod a slight cursory acknowledgement, then he disappears and disappointment washes over me—he’s gone. Crap. The cupcakes are also gone. Double crap. And now I’m left wondering if he saw me staring at that flavor? Did he distract me on purpose so he could purchase them first? Urrr...I’m so angry right now I consider walking out, but when the clerk asks me what I’d like I settle for the Vanilla Milk Chocolate cakes—they are the mirror reflection of the black and whites, with vanilla cake and chocolate frosting, but they are not nearly as good.</span></span></div>

Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03855455340687319050noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5910675299880152643.post-27988985521328074092013-12-31T12:17:00.001-06:002013-12-31T13:22:26.511-06:00Happy New Year<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">2013 was a great year for me. It was the year that I decided to start blogging, and it might seem silly but this blog has been a sort of saving grace to me. Over the last 5 years, my husband and I have struggled with infertility and after spending thousands and thousands of dollars on unsuccessful fertility treatments and unmeasurable heartache, we brought in 2013 with the knowledge that having a baby just isn't in the cards for us right now. We vowed to spend the year traveling and focusing on all of the things we DO have rather than worrying and hurting over the one thing we don't. Easier said than done, but I am proud to say that I am finally at peace with our situation and as I mentioned before, this blog has a LOT to do with it. You see, reading has always been my favorite past time, and throughout my struggle with infertility, losing myself in fiction helped me to escape the pain of my reality. Knowing that reading was such a source of comfort to me, my best friend encouraged me to start blogging about the books I was reading. At first I thought it was a silly idea, but I decided to give it a try and Bookworm Beauties was born. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br />
I cannot even begin to express how this blog has helped my heart heal. I honestly thought the only people that would ever even see my little blog would be my mom and I, so I have been absolutely BLOWN AWAY by the number of people who actually follow and visit the blog on a regular basis. Sharing my love for books with all of you has truly been therapeutic for me. Every single comment, email, like, share, message, and follow has brought a smile to my face and been a source of encouragement. Every time one of you messaged me asking for book recommendations or emailed to say you loved a book I reviewed, it brought such joy to my heart and gave me a sense of validation. I know this isn't the best or biggest book blog out there, and I can't dedicate as much time to blogging as I wish I could, but knowing that I am helping even one person ignite a love for reading encourages me to keep going and makes me so incredibly happy.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br />
All that being said, I want to give each of you a heartfelt THANK YOU for supporting me and this blog. May 2014 bring you health, happiness, love, and BOOKS... lots of books! ;-) </span><br />

Well versed at dodging caseworkers from Chicago’s foster care system, the past few years on her own have made Kricket an expert at the art of survival and blending in. With her 18th birthday fast approaching, she dreams of the day when she can stop running and find what her heart needs most: a home.</span></div>

What he’s learning of Kricket and her existence away from her true home only confirms his theory. But, when he and Kricket lie together under the stars of Ethar, counting them all may be easier than letting her go.</span></div>

I shiver, realizing I’m in Trey’s arms. He’s standing chest deep in crystal blue water with Wayra pacing on the bank only steps away. Clutching Trey closer to me, my cheek remains on his shoulder. Watching a bead of water slip down his powerful neck, I hear Jax say, “She’s waking up.”</span><br />

It drips down the sides of my face, cooling me. “Let’s get her out. I’ll get the visor and we can check her vitals.”</span><br />
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #e06666; font-family: inherit; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></div>

It makes me dizzy so I lay it back. It’s then I notice that I’m only in my bra and underwear. A blush creeps into my cheeks as I hug Trey tighter to me. Wayra meets us on the bank, draping a blanket over us. Trey sits down with me on his lap. He leans against a tree trunk holding me securely to his chest. Peeking at his face, he seems angry as he smoothes my hair back from my face.</span><br />

Everything is green as I gaze around at the water in front of us. Flashing green lights and readouts occupy the peripherals of the glasses, but the information is running faster than I can possibly read it.</span></div>

<b id="docs-internal-guid-4447e1a9-1ad2-58d9-1094-7a61f1ac8b4c" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></b></div>
I could not put this book down. It is a fast paced, action packed read full of suspense, intrigue, and sci-fi awesomeness! Once the story really got going there was seriously never a dull moment. The writing was great, the plot was exciting, and the characters (both main and secondary) were extremely likeable. Kricket in particular is a brave, smart, and witty heroine that any young girl could look up to. Trey is a super sweet (and hunky) hero, who is protective and noble, and had me feeling like a giddy school girl throughout the entire story. The relationship that blossoms between Kricket and Trey is the perfect combination of attraction, angst, and romance. </span></span><div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666;">Overall I thoroughly enjoyed the concept behind this story. It was refreshingly unique and creative, and as I said before, very well written. I cannot wait to see what is in store for Kricket and Trey in the next book! I give this book a solid 4 stars and highly recommend it for those of you who love a good dystopian/sci-fi story! Well done, Amy! </span><br />

My family is very supportive of my writing. When I’m writing, they often bring me the take-out menu so that I can call and order them dinner. They listen patiently when I talk about my characters like they’re real. They rarely roll their eyes when I tell them I’ll only be a second while I finish writing a chapter…and then they take off their coats. They ask me how the story is going when I surface after living for hours in a world of my own making. They have learned to accept my “writing uniform” consisting of a slightly unflattering pink fleece jacket, t-shirt, and black yoga pants. And they smile at my nerdy bookishness whenever I try to explain urban fantasy to them. In short, they get me, so they are perfect and I am blessed.</span></div>

Ever,</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
These letters are often all that get me through week to week. Even if it’s just random stuff, nothing important, they’re important to me. Gramps is great, and I love working on the ranch. But…I’m lonely. I feel disconnected, like I’m no one, like I don’t belong anywhere. Like I’m just here until something else happens. I don’t even know what I want with my future. But your letters, they make me feel connected to something, to someone. I had a crush on you, when we first met. I thought you were beautiful. So beautiful. It was hard to think of anything else. Then camp ended and we never got together, and now all I have of you is these letters. S**t. I just told you I have a crush on you. HAD. Had a crush. Not sure what is anymore. A letter-crush? A literary love? That’s stupid. Sorry. I just have this rule with myself that I never throw away what I write and I always send it, so hopefully this doesn’t weird you out too much. I had a dream about you too. Same kind of thing. Us, in the darkness, together. Just us. And it was like you said, a memory turned into a dream, but a memory of something that’s never happened, but in the dream it felt so real, and it was more, I don’t even know, more RIGHT than anything I’ve ever felt, in life or in dreams. I wonder what it means that we both had the same dream about each other. Maybe nothing, maybe everything. You tell me.</div>

Cade,</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We’re pen pals. Maybe that’s all we’ll ever be. I don’t know. If we met IRL (in real life, in case you’re not familiar with the term) what would happen? And just FYI, the term you used, a literary love? It was beautiful. So beautiful. That term means something, between us now. We are literary loves. Lovers? I do love you, in some strange way. Knowing about you, in these letters, knowing your hurt and your joys, it means something so important to me, that I just can’t describe. I need your art, and your letters, and your literary love. If we never have anything else between us, I need this. I do. Maybe this letter will only complicate things, but like you I have a rule that I never erase or throw away what I’ve written and I always send it, no matter what I write in the letter. </div>

Between art classes and the requisite camp activities—which were stupid bullshit—the first week of camp passed in a blur. <br />
<br />
It was Monday afternoon, all-camp free time, so most everyone was gone somewhere—into downtown Traverse City, to Sleeping Bear Dunes, canoeing on one of the two lakes, swimming at Peterson Beach. There were a few students on campus, most of them doing the same as I was, finding a solitary place to play an instrument, paint, draw, or dance. I had found the perfect spot overlooking Green Lake, sitting with my back to a pine tree, sketchbook on my knees, trying to capture the way a duck’s wings curved for landing as they floated over the rippling surface of the water. <br />
<br />
I’d been there for over an hour already, the bark scratching my back through my T-shirt, earbuds in and playing my current favorite album, Surfing With the Alien by Joe Satriani. I’d drawn the same picture six times, each one a quick, rough sketch, capturing the outlines, the curves, the angle of the bird’s body and the delicate arch of its neck. None of them were right, though. Like with my work on human hands, one particular detail was eluding me. This time, it was the pattern of the pinfeathers as the duck fluttered its wings, the way each feather rounded into the next, layered, yet separate, while its green head and yellow beak thrust forward, the wings creating a bonnet around its body. I’d stuffed each failed sketch under my foot, using the last as reference for the next. My pencil went still as another duck approached the water. Its wings curved to slow its descent, orange feet outstretched, and then at the very last moment it reared back and flared its wings, braking to a stop and settling on the water with barely a sound or splash. I watched intently, my eyes and mind capturing the moment of wing-flare, watching the tips of its wings, then I glanced down and erased frantically, redrawing, pencil moving furiously now, line overlaying line, adjusting the curve and angles. <br />
<br />
“You’re really good,” a voice said behind me. <br />
<br />
I knew without turning who it was. “Thanks, Ever.” Had I really remembered her voice after that one conversation?<br />
<br />
I wished I didn’t feel so self-conscious all of a sudden. Would she think I was stupid for drawing ducks? Watching them land had been fascinating when I was alone, and drawing them had captivated my focus for the last couple of hours, but now that a pretty girl was standing behind me…I was pretty sure it was the nerdiest thing ever. <br />
<br />
I closed the sketchbook and set it on top of the pile of discarded sketches, standing up and brushing off the seat of my shorts. When I finally turned my gaze to Ever, I had to blink several times. I hadn’t seen her since the day we arrived, despite looking for her in the visual arts classes and at meals. She’d been pretty then, dressed casually in jeans and a T-shirt. But now…she was so beautiful it made my stomach flip and tighten. <br />
<br />
She was wearing a pair of khaki shorts that barely made it to mid-thigh, and a rib-hugging green tank top that matched the emerald of her eyes perfectly. Her hair hung in loose spirals around her shoulders, and she had a bulky easel under one arm, a canvas under the other arm and a wooden carrying case for paints in her hand. A smudge of red paint stood out on her forehead, matching a similar smudge on her left wrist, and green paint was smeared near her right cheek and earlobe. <br />
<br />
I felt an absurd compulsion to wipe away the paint with my thumb. Instead, I reached for the easel and took it from her. “Were you just setting up? Or heading back?” I asked.<br />
<br />
She shrugged, and the strap of her tank top slipped over the round of her shoulder, revealing the white strap of her bra. “Neither. I was kinda just…walking around. Looking for something to paint.”<br />
<br />
“Oh. I was just…sketching. Ducks. Obviously.” I felt myself blushing as I mumbled, forcing my gaze away from the overlapping green and white straps and the hint of pale skin as she brushed the strap back in place. “I don’t really like ducks, I just…I thought the way they looked when they landed was kinda cool, and I—do you want me to carry your easel?” I felt like a spaz, shifting tracks so suddenly and blurting like an idiot.<br />
<br />
Ever shrugged again, and the damn strap of her shirt slipped again. I wished she would stop shrugging so much, because it was wreaking hell on my ability to not stare at her. It wasn’t just the strap, though, it was her chest, the way it lifted and settled along with her shoulders. I felt my cheeks burn and wondered if my thoughts were visible, somehow, like I had a digital marquee on my forehead, announcing the fact that I was staring at her boobs.<br />
<br />
“Sure,” Ever said, and I had to refocus to remember what we were talking about. “It is kinda heavy.”<br />
<br />
Oh. The easel. Right. I leaned down and scooped up my sketchbook and papers, then adjusted the easel under my armpit more securely. “Where to?” <br />
<br />
I was sensing a pattern now, and managed to avert my gaze before she did the shrug. <br />
<br />
“I dunno. I was thinking somewhere on that side over there.” She pointed to a not-too-distant portion of the Green Lake shoreline.<br />
<br />
We traipsed through the woods along the shoreline, chatting about our art classes, comparing notes and complaints. Every once in a while, Ever would move ahead of me, and the way her shorts clung to her backside was so distracting I almost dropped the easel a few times. <br />
<br />
This was new territory for me. Girls were just girls. There’d never been one that had grabbed my attention like this before, and I didn’t know how to handle it. Of course, there were hot girls at school, and I looked at them, ’cause duh, I’m a guy. But this was different. Ever was someone I could see becoming a friend, and it was tricky having a friend who you couldn’t stop staring at like some wonderstruck moron. I felt like she had this power of reducing me to a mouth-breathing caveman.<br />
<br />
Ook. Me Caden. You woman. <br />
<br />
I trotted up to walk next to her, which was only nominally better. The problem was that anywhere I looked, there was something I shouldn’t be staring at. <br />
<br />
Eventually, she came a stop on a little knoll surrounded by trees with a stunning view of the lake. “This is good,” she said. “I could paint this.” I set the easel down and unfolded it, then moved away and watched her arrange her canvas on the easel, open her paint case and select a pencil. “You can’t watch over my shoulder. That’s weird and creepy and I won’t be able to think.” She gestured off to one side. “Find your own spot and we’ll critique each other’s work when we’re done.”<br />
<br />
“So we’re both drawing the same basic landscape scene?” I asked.<br />
<br />
She nodded. “Well, I’ll paint it. You draw it.”<br />
<br />
I found a place off to Ever’s left, framing the lake between two huge Jack Pines. I set my pad on my crossed legs and started sketching, and pretty soon disappeared into capturing the scene before me. I didn’t entirely forget about Ever, because she was hot even while painting—especially while painting, really. She was messy. She had a tendency to use her fingers as much as the brushes. She would swipe her bangs out of her face and get paint on her forehead and cheeks and nose. Even as I tried to force my attention back to the sketch in my book, she scratched her wrist with one hand, smearing orange paint on her wrist, and then rubbed her jaw with the same wrist.<br />
<br />
I must have laughed out loud, because she glanced over at me. “What?” she asked.<br />
<br />
“It’s just…you have paint all over your face.” <br />
<br />
“I do?” She wiped at her cheek with one hand, which of course only smeared it worse. <br />
<br />
I set my pad and pencils down and moved to stand next to her. “Yeah, it’s…everywhere.” I hesitated, then dragged my thumb lightly across her forehead and showed her the paint on my thumb. <br />
<br />
She frowned, and then lifted the bottom edge of her shirt to wipe her face. At the sight of her stomach and the hint of white bra, I turned away. “Is that better?” she asked.<br />
<br />
I turned back around. She had paint all over her shirt, but her face was clean. “Yeah, you got it off your face. Except…” I took a strand of her hair between my finger and thumb, and it came away green. “You have it in your hair too.”<br />
<br />
“I’m a messy painter, I guess. I like to use my hands. At home, I don’t even use brushes. But the teachers here want me to try and expand my ‘vocabulary as an artist’ or some bullshit like that.” She put air quotes around the phrase, mocking it. “Mom was the same way.” <br />
<br />
Something in her eyes and voice when she mentioned her mother, along with the fact that she’d used past tense, had me on alert. “She’s a messy painter?” I didn’t want to ask, or assume anything. <br />
<br />
“Was.” Ever turned away from me and focused on her canvas, dabbing her brush into a glop of green on her palette, darkening the shade closer to the green of the pine needles.<br />
<br />
“Why was?”<br />
<br />
“Because she’s dead.” She said it calmly, matter-of-factly, but too much so. “Car accident. Not quite a year and a half ago.”<br />
<br />
“I’m sorry,” I said. “I mean…yeah. I’m sorry for your loss.” That was a phrase I’d heard before, but it sounded awkward when I said it. Fake and empty.<br />
<br />
Ever glanced at me. “Thanks.” She wrinkled her nose. “We don’t have to talk about it. It happened, and that’s it. No point in getting all weepy about it.”<br />
<br />
I felt like she was putting on a brave face, but I didn’t know how to tell her she didn’t have to do that. If she wanted a brave face, what business was it of mine to say she shouldn’t? I took a few deep breaths, and then changed the subject. “I like your painting. It’s not quite realistic, but not quite abstract, either.” <br />
<br />
It was an interesting piece. The trees were thick, blurry, smeared representations of trees, browns and greens that barely seemed like anything at all, but the lake beyond and between them was intensely realistic, each ripple detailed and perfect, glinting and reflecting the sunlight.<br />
<br />
“Thanks,” she said. “I wasn’t sure it would work when I started, but I think I like it.” She stepped back, rubbing the side of her nose with her middle finger, blotting brown on her skin, then realized what she’d done and sighed. “Lemme see yours.”<br />
<br />
I hated showing people my drawings. I drew because I loved drawing. I drew because it just seemed to come out of me, whether I intended to do it or not. I doodled all over my textbooks and notebooks at school, on my desk calendar at home, even on the leg of my jeans sometimes. I didn’t draw to impress people. Letting someone see my work was like showing someone a part of me, it felt like. I showed my dad my drawings sometimes, because he was an engineer with a background in drafting and knew what he was talking about. And he was my dad and wouldn’t be too harsh or critical. <br />
<br />
What if Ever thought I was shitty? I liked her and wanted her to think I was cool, talented. <br />
<br />
Before I could re-think the decision, I handed her my sketchpad. To disguise my nerves, I picked up a thick stick from the ground and started peeling the bark off. Ever stared at my sketch for a long time, looking from it to the lake, and then walked to where I’d been sitting when I drew it. After what felt like a thousand years, she handed it back.<br />
<br />
“You kick my ass at drawing. That’s really amazing, Caden. It almost looks like a photo.” <br />
<br />
I shrugged, picking at the bark with my thumbnail. “Thanks. It’s not really all that photorealistic, but…it’s not bad for a quick sketch.”<br />
<br />
She just nodded, and neither of us knew what to say. I wanted to be calm and cool and confident, make casual conversation and impress her with my wit. But that just wasn’t me. <br />
<br />
I was a bark-picker and a dirt-kicker, words sticking in my chest and tumbling around each other. <br />
<br />
“We should draw each other. Just pencils and paper,” Ever said, breaking the awkward silence.<br />
<br />
“Sure,” was all I could say. I flipped the page of my book to an empty one, then realized she’d only brought her canvas, so I carefully ripped the page out and handed it to her. “You’ve got a pencil, right?”<br />
<br />
Ever lifted her pencil in response, and then sat down cross-legged in the dirt. I sat facing her and tried to pretend that my eyes weren’t drawn to her inner thighs, bared and looking softer than I could possibly imagine. I ducked my head and regrouped, then forced my gaze to her face. I started sketching, getting the basic shapes down first. By the time I’d finished the outline of her face and shoulders, I had an idea. I wanted to mimic her own style, mixing realism with abstraction. It flowed easily once I had the concept down. We were companionably silent then, glancing up at each other every now and again, but focused on our work. <br />
<br />
Wind blew in the tree around us, and the sun filtered lower and lower, and somewhere voices echoed, laughing and yelling. The scent of pine trees was thick in the air, a smell so pungent it was almost visible. It was the scent of a northern Michigan summer, to me. <br />
<br />
I didn’t know how long we sat there drawing each other, and I didn’t care. I had a sense of complete peace, soul-deep contentment. Our knees were touching, just our kneecaps brushing, and that was enough to make me feel euphoria. Then Ever shifted, and my right knee touched her left shin, pressing close and making my heart skip more beats than could possibly be healthy.<br />
<br />
Finally, I knew the drawing was done. I examined it critically, adjusted a few lines and angles, and then nodded. I was pleased. I’d captured her face with as much realism as I possessed, her hair hanging in loose waves around one shoulder, head tilted, eyes downcast. The farther down her torso the drawing went, the more blurred and abstracted it got, so that her feet and knees were charcoal smudges on the paper. <br />
<br />
I stood up, leaving the pad on the pine-needle-carpeted ground, and paced, working the blood back into my legs and numb backside. When I returned to my seat in front of Ever, she was holding my sketchbook and staring at it, an oddly emotional expression on her face. <br />
<br />
“Is this how you see me?” she asked, not looking up at me.<br />
<br />
“I—sort of? I mean, it’s just a drawing. I was trying to mimic the way you did that landscape, you know?” I reached for my book, but she held on. “Are you…I mean, you’re not mad or anything, are you?”<br />
<br />
She shook her head and laughed. “No! Not at all. I was just expecting it to be a profile or something, you know? And this is totally not that. I don’t know, Caden. You make me look—I don’t know…prettier than I am.”<br />
<br />
“Not—um…I kind of think it doesn’t do you justice. It’s not good enough. You’re…you’re prettier than that.”<br />
<br />
“You think I’m pretty?” <br />
<br />
I was beet red, I could feel it. Once again I wished I could say something debonair like James Bond would say in the old Sean Connery movies Dad watched every weekend. “Yeah.” <br />
<br />
Nice. Might as well have grunted like a Neanderthal.<br />
<br />
Ever blushed and ducked her head, smoothing her hair over her shoulder with one hand. “Thanks.” She glanced up at me, and our eyes met, locked. I wanted to look away, but couldn’t. Her eyes were mesmerizing, green and almost luminous. “I almost don’t want to show you my stupid drawing.”<br />
<br />
I reached for the drawing, but Ever didn’t let go of it. Our fingers touched, and I swore actual physical sparks shot up from where our skin touched. Neither of us pulled away. <br />
<br />
After a forever that could have fit into the space of a single breath, she let me take the sheet of paper, and touch became loss.<br />
<br />
It was an amazing portrait of me, ultra-realistic. I was sitting cross-legged with my pad of paper, pencil held in my fingers, head down. You could just barely see the upper portion of my face, the frown of concentration.<br />
<br />
“It’s incredible, Ever,” I said. “Really amazing.” I was torn between admiration and jealousy. She was really good.<br />
<br />
“Thanks.”<br />
<br />
She held my drawing, and I held hers. A cicada sang somewhere, the loud buzzing sound of summer. <br />
<br />
“I have an evening composition class,” I said. “I should probably go.” <br />
<br />
“Yeah. I should too.” She stood up, brushing off her backside, an action I tried not to watch, then handed me my sketchpad back. “I had a good time today. Maybe we could do this again. Another day.”<br />
<br />
I tore my drawing of her free and gave it to her. “Yeah. I’d like that.”<br />
<br />
“Cool.”<br />
<br />
“Cool.” <br />
<br />
She gave an odd, half-circle wave, then looked at her hand as if to question why it had done such an awkward thing. Then, before I could say anything, she gathered her things and left. <br />
<br />
I watched her go, wondering what this thing was between us. Friendship? Something else? We’d only hung out twice, but it had felt like more than that. Like we knew each other, somehow.<br />
<br />
I went to class and then back to my cabin, where I stashed her drawing of me. <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
~ ~ ~ ~<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
I didn’t see Ever again until nearly the end of camp, even though I went out of my way to find her. Every time I went by her cabin she was gone, and I never saw her in any classes or workshops, or at dinner. I got a glimpse of her once, swimming with her cabin-mates, laughing and wet and beautiful, but I was with some guys from my own cabin, on the way to shoot hoops in the gym.<br />
<br />
It was three days until the end of the camp. Late at night. I was supposed to be in bed, but I couldn’t sleep. I had an unsettled feeling in my stomach, a restlessness that had no source or definition, just an anxiousness that I couldn’t seem to dispel. I snuck out of the cabin and went down to one of the docks.<br />
<br />
It was a clear night, moonless and dark, lit only by a sky full of stars. The air held a touch of coolness, whispering over my skin. I hadn’t bothered to put on a shirt, wearing a pair of gym shorts and sports sandals as I stepped lightly on the creaking wood of the long dock.<br />
<br />
I was so wrapped up in my own thoughts that I didn’t see or hear her until I was nearly on top of her. <br />
<br />
Ever sat on the edge of the dock, feet dangling. I opened my mouth to speak, but then I saw that her shoulders were shaking. She was crying.<br />
<br />
I didn’t know what to do, what to say. She’d come down here to be alone—I mean, that much was obvious, right? And asking her if she was okay seemed stupid. I hesitated, turned to leave. I didn’t know how to even begin comforting her, but I wanted to try. So, I sat down next to her, dangling my feet over the black, rippling water. <br />
<br />
She wasn’t sobbing, just quietly crying. I put my hand on her shoulder and squeezed, a gentle touch that let her know I was there. A short hesitation, and then she turned into me and my arm went around her and held her. I felt wetness touch my shoulder, her tears on my skin. I held her, let her cry, and wondered if I was doing it right. If there was something I was supposed to be saying that would make it okay. <br />
<br />
“I miss her, Caden.” Her voice was tiny, barely audible. “I miss my Mom. I—I miss home. I’m homesick. But most of all, I wish I could go home and see Mom again. Dad doesn’t talk about her. Eden doesn’t talk about her. I don’t talk about her. It’s like she died and now we pretend like she never was.”<br />
<br />
“You can talk to me.” I hoped that didn’t sound too cliché.<br />
<br />
“I don’t know what to say. She’s been dead a year and a half, and all I can really say is…I miss her. I miss how she made our family a family.” She sniffled and straightened away from my shoulder, although our bodies were still flush against each other, hip to hip. I left my arm around her shoulders, and she didn’t seem to mind it. “Now it’s just each of us by ourselves. Eden and I…we’re twins, did I tell you that? We don’t even really talk about her, or about missing her, or anything. And we’re twins, we almost share a brain sometimes. Like, legit, we can read each other’s thoughts sometimes.”<br />
<br />
“Nothing like that has ever happened in my family. I don’t know how we’d handle it if it did. I know my dad probably wouldn’t talk about it. My mom might. I’m like Dad, I think, and I’d have a hard time talking about things. I already do. I’m sure you can tell. I never know what to say.” We were quiet for a while. But Ever needed someone to talk to. And I thought about last week, the two of us sitting by the lake, drawing—both of us knew how to speak with our hands and pencils. An idea came to me, and I said it without thinking. “What if we were pen pals?”<br />
<br />
God, that sounded stupid. <br />
<br />
“Pen pals?” At least, she didn’t laugh at me outright.<br />
<br />
“I know that sounds dumb, or whatever. But it can be hard to talk on the phone. And we don’t really live close to each other, and…I just thought maybe if we wrote letters, we could talk about whatever we wanted, but on our own time.” She hadn’t said anything, and I was starting to feel intensely self-conscious. “I guess it’s dumb.”<br />
<br />
“No, I…I like the idea. I think it’s awesome.” She turned and looked up at me. The starlight shone dim silver in her green eyes, and I felt like I could fall into her eyes if I stared long enough. “Like, we’d write actual paper letters? Every month?”<br />
<br />
“Yeah, that’s what I was thinking. Or it could be more frequently, if we wanted to. Whenever, you know? Whenever we needed to say something.” I ran my thumbnail in the grooved grain of the faded wood.<br />
<br />
“I really…I think that would be awesome.” She rested her head against my bicep.<br />
<br />
We sat like that in the silence of a northern Michigan summer midnight, close and touching, but not embracing, not talking, lost in our own thoughts.<br />
<br />
I heard voices behind us, turned to see two flashlight beams bobbing toward us. “We’ve been found,” I said.<br />
<br />
Just before our respective cabin staffers found us, Ever clutched my hand in hers. “Promise me you’ll write?”<br />
<br />
“I promise.” I squeezed her with my arm, an awkward hug. “Good night, Ever.”<br />
<br />
“’Night, Caden.” She hesitated a beat, and then turned into me, makin it a full fledged hug, bodies pressed against each other.<br />
<br />
Totally worth the trouble I got in. <br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
~ ~ ~ ~</div>
<br />
Pick-up that Saturday was chaotic, a thousand cars, parents and campers reuniting. I found Dad leaning against the door of his truck, arms crossed. I spotted him from a distance, held up a finger to signal “one minute,” then wove through the crowd, duffel bag on my shoulder, looking for black hair and green eyes and a body that had featured in more of my dreams than I cared to admit. <br />
<br />
Ever was standing in the open door of a boxy silver Mercedes SUV, looking around almost frantically. She saw me and flew toward me, slamming into me and hugging me. I was so surprised that I didn’t react for a moment, and then I dropped my bag and my arms went around her shoulders and I was hugging her back, holding her, smelling the shampoo in her hair and the faint, indefinable scent that made a girl smell like a girl. <br />
<br />
When we pulled apart, I handed her a folded slip of paper on which I’d printed my name and address as neatly as I could. The paper she handed me had a heart on it, my name written in a curving, looping script within the heart. Did that mean something? Was the fact that she put my name inside the heart significant? Or was that just something girls did? I wished I knew and I tried not to read too much into it. <br />
<br />
“You better write me,” she said.<br />
<br />
“I will. I promise.” I held onto the folded square of paper, not wanting to put it in my pocket in front of her. That would just feel rude, somehow. <br />
<br />
“Good. And I promise I’ll write you back.” <br />
<br />
“You better.” I heard her father say something to her sister Eden, and I shuffled back a few steps. “Good luck. You know, with…everything we talked about.”<br />
<br />
“You too.” She gave me a half-wave, a stiff semi-circle of her arm. Her eyes were on me, and her lips were smiling, and it was all I could do to tear myself away, grab my duffel bag and trot back toward Dad and the truck. My head was spinning and my heart was doing strange sideways cartwheels. <br />
<br />
Dad was waiting for me in the driver’s seat, the engine idling, staring off out his window. His expression was pensive, brooding, and dark. I made sure to wipe the goofy grin off my face as I tossed my bag into the bed of the truck and ran the aged black rubber bungee cord through the handle, slipping the hook securely under the lip of the bed rim. I had Ever’s note in my palm, and I slid my hand against my thigh to hide it.<br />
<br />
“Got a number, huh, bud?” Dad’s voice was amused.<br />
<br />
I glanced at him, stifling the urge to roll my eyes. “Sort of.”<br />
<br />
“How do you ‘sort of’ get a number?” <br />
<br />
“It’s not her phone number, it’s her address.”<br />
<br />
“Her address?” Dad sounded incredulous. “You must have some serious game, Cade. Where does she live?”<br />
<br />
Serious game? My dad was trying to be hip again, apparently. I lifted one shoulder in a shrug, not wanting to tell him about the pen pals idea, but knowing he’d pester me until I did. “I dunno where she lives, I haven’t looked at it yet. Somewhere in Bloomfield, I think.”<br />
<br />
“Bloomfield, huh? The ritzy area. Her pops must be loaded.”<br />
<br />
I shrugged again, my standby response to pretty much everything. “I guess. I think he works for Chrysler or something. An executive or vice president. Something like that.”<br />
<br />
Dad huffed in sarcastic laughter. “‘Something like that.’ How informative. Did you learn anything definite about her?”<br />
<br />
“Her name is Ever Eliot. She lives in Bloomfield. She’s into painting and sculpture. She has a twin sister named Eden.” I wasn’t going to mention the fact that her mom had died in a car accident. It seemed like it would be a breach of confidence to tell him. “She’s beautiful.”<br />
<br />
“You like her?” <br />
<br />
I shrugged yet again. “I guess.”<br />
<br />
“You guess.” He shook his head in frustration and then turned up the radio as “Springsteen” by Eric Church came on, and we both tuned in to listen. When the song ended, he turned it down again. “So this Ever girl aside, how was Interlochen?”<br />
<br />
“It was good.”<br />
<br />
He waited a few beats, glancing at me expectantly. “Thousands of dollars and three weeks, and all I get out of you is “it was good’?”<br />
<br />
Ugh. Adults always wanted more information from me than I ever knew how to give them. “What do you want, Dad, a day by day breakdown? I don’t know. I learned about all sorts of artistic bullshit. Angles, shading, perspective, composition. I tried my hand at oil painting and watercolor. Even tried clay sculpture, which I suck at. I took a class on drawing anatomy, which was pretty awesome. It was camp. I swam. Played basketball with some of the guys from my cabin.”<br />
<br />
“And met a pretty girl.”<br />
<br />
“And that. Yeah.”<br />
<br />
“Sounds like a great time.” He grabbed my shoulder in his iron-hard fist and shook me, which was meant to be affectionate, but ended up feeling rough, like he was trying to be casual, or playful. “Think you’ll go back next year?”<br />
<br />
I’d been thinking about that a lot the last few days. “Maybe? I don’t really know. I’m torn. I did have a good time, and I learned a lot, but…it was like a whole extra summer of school, just for art. Summers at the ranch with Gramps…it’s just…different. “<br />
<br />
Dad nodded. “Well, think about it, I guess. You’ve got a year. I know Gramps would happy to have you back next summer, but do what you want for you.”<br />
<br />
We kept quiet after that, listening to country and classic rock as the miles passed. The closer we got to home, the more pinched and worried Dad’s expression became. I opened my mouth several times to ask him what was wrong, but never actually spoke. He’d pass it off, brush it off, say it was nothing for me to worry about. But if he was still acting stressed or worried after three weeks, there was something going on that my parents weren’t telling me.<br />
<br />
At home, I tried to ignore it, but as the summer days dwindled, bringing me closer to the start of ninth grade and my fifteenth birthday, I couldn’t help noticing the whispered conversations while I was watching TV, the increasingly frequent times they left together on mysterious “errands,” or the way Mom seemed to be withdrawing into herself. But when I walked into a room or started to ask Mom if she was okay, she pasted a smile on her face and changed the topic to some variation of whether I needed any more school supplies. <br />
<br />
When I got home from my absolutely shitty first day of ninth grade, I sat at my desk in my room with the door closed, dug my American Literature notebook from my backpack, and sat down to write to Ever for the first time.<br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Determined
to live a dark life in the company of the assassin who freed her from bondage,
Sarai sets out on her own to settle a score with an evil sadist. Unskilled and
untrained in the art of killing, the events that unfold leave her hanging
precariously on the edge of death when nothing goes as planned. <br />
<br />
Sarai’s reckless choices send her on a path she knows she can never turn back
from and so she presents Victor with an ultimatum: help her become more like
him and give her a fighting chance, or she’ll do it alone no matter the
consequences. Knowing that Sarai cannot become what she wants to be overnight,
Victor begins to train her and inevitably their complicated relationship heats
up. <br />
<br />
As Arthur Hamburg’s right-hand man, Willem Stephens, closes in on his crusade
to destroy Sarai, she is left with the crushing realization that she may have
bitten off more than she can chew. But Sarai, taking on the new and improved
role of Izabel Seyfried, still has a set of deadly skills of her own that will
prove to be all she needs to secure her place beside Victor.<br />
<br />
But there is one test that Izabel must face that has the potential to destroy
everything she is working so hard to achieve. One final test that will not only
make her question her decision to want this dangerous life, but will make her
question everything she has come to trust about Victor Faust.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 0in;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;">“If you touch me,” I say to the
suit-clad guard standing outside Hamburg’s private room, “I’ll put your nuts in
a meat-grinder.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;">The guard’s nostrils flare and he glances at Willem
Stephens.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;">“You requested a meeting with Mr. Hamburg,” Willem says from
behind. “It’s only proper that you be searched for weapons before we allow you
inside.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;">Damn it! <o:p></o:p></span></i></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;">I breathe in a heavy breath and sneer at both of them
menacingly. Then I throw my little black purse at the guard; he catches it as
it hits his chest.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;">“I think it’s safe to say I couldn’t hide a weapon wearing a
dress like this unless I put it up my cunt,” I snap, looking back at Willem
Stephens. “My gun is in the purse. But don’t even think of touching—”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;">“Let her in,” a familiar voice says from the door.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;">It’s Arthur Hamburg, still as porky and grotesque as he was
before, wearing an oversized suit ready to bust at the buttons if he exhales
too deeply.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;">I smirk at the guard who glares back at me with murder in
his eyes. I know that look, I’m all too intimate with it just the same. He
takes the gun from my purse and hands the purse back to me.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;">“Mr. Hamburg,” Willem Stephens says, “I should remain with
you.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;">Hamburg shakes his double-chinned head. “No, you mind the
restaurant. These people aren’t here to kill me or else they wouldn’t be so
obvious. I’ll be fine.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;">“At least leave Marion outside the door,” Willem suggests,
glancing at the guard.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;">“Yes,” Hamburg agrees. “You stay here, let no one interrupt
our…,” he looks at me once coldly, “…meeting, unless I ask for an interruption.
If at any time you no longer hear my voice for a full minute, come inside the
room. As a precaution, of course.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;">He smirks at me.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;">“Of course,” I mimic and smirk right back at him.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;">Arthur Hamburg steps to the side and gestures me in with an
opened hand, palm-up.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;">“I thought this was over, Miss Seyfried.”</span></div>

Harper was finally starting to settle into his life - a life that had
previously been full of more heartbreak and pain than most people ever
experienced. He had a job he loved, and was blissfully content in his on-again,
off-again relationship with the striking, and highly sexual, Holly. But, life
throws Luke another curveball with the arrival of the alluring April, a woman
stuck in a tumultuous, violent marriage to a famous athlete. Luke soon finds
himself torn between what is safe, familiar, and right, and what is dangerous,
unknown, and forbidden.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

hands quickly went up and grabbed my shoulders, and mine instinctively grabbed
her waist. I could feel her grip tighten when I touched her, and her eyes
widened.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

tightened my grip on her hips and flinched, pretending I was about to throw her
in. She gasped slightly, hands grabbing my shoulders tightly again. Her
hips arched forward and she leaned up on her toes as if in reflex.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><br style="mso-special-character: line-break;" />

happen."</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">She was
less than a foot from me, her face getting much closer to mine.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">I
wasn't thinking about throwing her into the water anymore. Everything within me
wanted to pull her tightly in and kiss her right there, in front of the pool in
the house her husband bought with all the millions of dollars he had made
throughout his career. Kiss her on the spot where he probably threw numerous
parties. Kiss her on the lips I wished were mine, and not his.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">The
look in her eyes told me she wanted the same. At least I thought they did. I
hadn't been in a position where I felt like this for someone in a long time.
Thankfully, my hands were around her waist or I surely would have been able to
feel them get clammy, nervous, like a high school kid on his first date with
the prom queen he never thought he could get.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><br style="mso-special-character: line-break;" />

This book is salty. There is no sweet. You'll be hard pressed to find a
unicorn. It is sexy and frustrating. I grow so tired of "perfect"
steamy hero's. I don't like perfect. I like my men a little nerdy and
aggressive. Luke is way nerdy. We have a lot of male perspective books coming
out, but most are written by women. I'm really wondering at this point if we
are getting it right. As for the actual storyline...I was riveted. Hero is
playing with married woman fire. He has a hot, little blonde on the back
burner. I didn't know who to root for. The author's writing style is what I'll
praise most. It's so different. Polished. And I love being in a man's head.
They're simple, but damn are they dirty. I.LOVE.THIS.BOOK. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

A number of which are now listed among my favorite books of the year and were such moving and emotional reads that I couldn't seem to find words to write about how much I loved them. I will attempt to convey my emotions about these books and a few other highly enjoyable reads that I have discovered as of late in this post. Since there are several recommendations, I will make my reviews short and sweet! Here we go...</span></span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">There are truly no words to express how much I loved this book. It is a beautifully written story full of unexpected emotion and depth. The characters are endearing and lovable, the plot is refreshingly unique, and the message conveyed is powerful and thought provoking. It is seriously one of those stories that just resonates in your soul. It is a complete game changer in the New Adult genre. I'm telling you, Amy Harmon has such an incredible way with words. Honestly, she had me running through an emotional gauntlet... I was laughing, crying, and pondering my perspective on love, strength, beauty, and my existential purpose in life. I can't even begin to explain the complexity of the feelings her writing evoked in me. Needless to say, she is my new favorite author and I cannot wait to read any and all of her other work. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">Here are a few of my favorite quotes just to give you a glimpse of the beauty that is her writing:</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #45818e; font-family: inherit;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;">“True beauty, the kind that doesn't fade or wash off, takes time. It takes incredible endurance. It is the slow drip that creates the stalactite, the shaking of the Earth that creates mountains, the constant pounding of the waves that breaks up the rocks and smooths the rough edges. And from the violence, the furor, the raging of the winds, the roaring of the waters, something better emerges, something that would have otherwise never existed.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;">And so we endure. We have faith that there is purpose. We hope for things we can't see. We believe there are lessons in loss, power in love, and that we have within us the potential for a beauty so magnificent, our bodies can't contain it.”</span></span></b><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #45818e; font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></b></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #45818e; font-family: inherit;">“I don't think we get answers to every question. We don't get all the whys. But I think when we look back to the end of our lives, if we do the best we can, and we will see that the things we begged God to take from us, the things we cursed him for, the things that made us turn our backs on him, are the things that were the biggest blessings, the biggest opportunities for growth.” </span></b></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #45818e; font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></b></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #45818e; font-family: inherit;">“There isn't heartache if there hasn't been joy. I wouldn't feel loss if there hadn't been love.” </span></b></span><br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666;">This is another refreshingly different story that was recommended to me by some blogger friends. I actually had this book sitting "on deck" in my Kindle for months, but after much insistence from aforementioned friends, I buckled down one night and started reading..... and then I COULD NOT PUT IT DOWN!!!! I was immediately sucked in right from page one and was OBSESSED. While <i>Bully</i> is not nearly as deep and thought provoking as <i>Making Faces</i>, it focuses on the serious issue of yes, you guessed it, bullying. But honestly, it is SO MUCH MORE than what I expected!!!!!!!! I was addicted to the characters and frantically devoured each page, so I could get to the end to find out what would happen. You also must read all of the Caleb teasers that Penelope has posted because holy hotness..... they are GOOD!!!!! </span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666;"><i>Four Seconds to Lose</i> is a companion novel to <i><a href="http://bookwormbeauties.blogspot.com/2013/04/ten-tiny-breaths.html">Ten Tiny Breaths</a></i> and <i><a href="http://bookwormbeauties.blogspot.com/2013/06/its-official.html">One Tiny Lie</a></i>, but can be read as a stand alone. However, I do strongly recommend reading the first two books before reading Cain's story, as characters from the two books play a part in his story, and quite frankly also because they are both awesome reads that should not be missed! As far as FSTL goes, I am happy to report that it is an incredible addition to the series and was not at all what I was expecting! I absolutely adored Cain's character, which had a surprising amount of depth and complexity to it. Add in new leading lady, Charlie, who <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">is equally complex and mysterious, and I was hooked! K.A. Tucker is an absolute brilliant writer, who somehow manages to create characters with the perfect combination of intrigue, complexity, and steam. I also really loved the way she was able to blur the line between right and wrong in this story. It gave what could have easily been a typical New Adult plot, an added layer of depth and complexity. I thoroughly enjoyed this read and give it a solid 4 star recommendation. I can't wait to see what K.A. Tucker has in store for us next! </span></span></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;">The Covenant books are definitely more of a YA read, but the writing is witty and fun, and the story line and characters are interesting and unique. I was very saddened (and a little panicked... you'll know what I am talking about when you get to the end) to see the series come to an end, but I absolutely adored the way Jen brought the story to a close.... even if she completely toyed with my emotions. I don't want to give too much away about the plot or resolution, but I will say the entire book (and series for that matter) was fast paced, and full of action and lots of heart. I highly recommend this series. Just writing this review makes me feel a little forlorn because I miss the characters (specifically Aiden) so much. *wipes tear* If you like Greek mythology, dreamy guys, and snarky heroines, this series is a major must read! </span></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;"><i>Origin</i> is the latest installment of Armentrout's <i>Lux</i> series, which is also an absolute must read set of books! Hot sarcastic aliens fighting deadly arch-nemesis aliens while trying remain unseen by humans and stay off a powerful government agencies' radar... What's not to love!? Daemon Black (hot sarcastic alien) is a total dreamboat, who would "burn the world" to save his leading lady, Katy. The entire series is full of witty writing and frustratingly awesome cliffhanger endings that will make you want to read the entire series in one sitting. <i>Origin</i> itself picks up right where we are left quite literally hanging at the end of <i>Opal</i>, and is an action packed read full of twists and turns that will keep you on your toes the entire time. I cannot freaking wait to see what she has in store for us in <i>Opposition</i>! </span></span></div>

Cam's story is a quick and easy read, and I adored reacquainting myself with the characters and getting a glimpse into his mind as his and Avery's relationship developed. He is such an adorable and endearing character, who is easy to love. Jen also uses Cam's story as the perfect opportunity to set the stage for the next book in the series, <i>Be With Me, </i>which I cannot wait for! I definitely recommend this series. It is hands down one of my favorite New Adult reads! </span></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;"><i>Finding It</i> is the companion novel to <a href="http://bookwormbeauties.blogspot.com/2013/04/losing-it.html"><i>Losing It</i></a> and <a href="http://bookwormbeauties.blogspot.com/2013/06/its-official.html"><i>Faking It</i></a>, and was equally as enjoyable! Cora's writing is fun and witty and seems to get better and better with each book she writes. <i>Finding It</i> is centered-around, Kelsey (who we meet as Bliss' best friend in book 1 of the series). The story follows the rich and wild Kelsey as she backpacks across Europe in search of herself. What she ends up finding is so much more. Enter the mysterious Jackson Hunt. The chemistry between Kelsey and Jackson is intense from the moment they meet; though, their relationship is far from easy going, as they both are keeping secrets and unwilling to truly let the other in. They go through a lot of ups and downs as they journey across Europe together, and every single sweet, steamy, heartbreaking, and tension filled moment helps them to grow as individuals and together. I loved watching the story unfold and their characters develop. Cora is such an amazing writer and her work seems to grow in depth and complexity with every new story. I am really looking forward to reading Jackson's novella and any and every other book that Cora writes in the future. She seriously rocks my socks! </span></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;">I received a free ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review. I wasn't quite sure what to think as I began reading, but I am pleasantly surprise to report that this was a very intriguing and interesting read! The story follows Raielle, who has the secret ability to heal people with her touch, and after the mysterious and unexpected death of her mother, finds herself across the country living with a brother whom she didn't know existed. As the story progresses, Raielle quickly finds out that her unstable mother was hiding a lot more than just an older sibling. Feeling confused and lost, Raielle is forced to start over in a new town surrounded by strangers with secrets of their own. One of those said strangers is high school heart throb Lucas Diesel, who Raielle is immediately attracted and drawn to despite her determination to remain unattached and unnoticed. The story itself is full of mystery and plot twists that made it impossible to put down! I give this story a solid 4 stars and am eagerly awaiting the sequel!</span></span></div>

<div class="BodyA">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;">I’m not the type of girl that’s super fashionable… at least, not
anymore. That was my old life, and the inclination to spend an obscene
amount of time stressing out about my appearance feels like it was surgically
sliced out of me. I don’t go crazy with makeup and I don’t spend hours
primping to get ready for a trip to the mall anymore. The only throwback
to my more stylish self is my devotion to my hair. It’s the one feature
that I pay close attention to and although I hate to do it, the rain has left
me with no choice but to throw my hair up into a ponytail. My hair has
become a security blanket for me and having it pulled back makes me feel like
I’m naked. When my hair is down, if someone takes notice of me or makes
me feel uncomfortable, all I need to do is hide behind my hair and that’s
that. It really sucks that I’m not going to have that option today.</span></div>
<div class="BodyA">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="BodyA">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;">I’d already done very light makeup, just a touch of mascara and
some light lip-gloss, so after throwing on a pair of black leggings, a silver
gypsy-type tunic, and a pair of ballet flats, I was ready to go. I
grabbed my tote bag and headed off to my first class of the day, Business Math.</span></div>
<div class="BodyA">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="BodyA">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;">I had taken the time to learn my route the day before, so I got
myself to my first class on time. As is habit with me, I chose a seat at
the back of the room. I hate sitting close to the front. In my mind, that
section is reserved for ass-kissers and the late-to-class. I’m not an
ass-kisser, and I’ve got enough anxiety without ever having to add being tardy
to the mix. Ergo, I’m a back row sitter. </span></div>

is in the final months of her undergraduate degree at the University of
Toronto. Bright, witty and fiercely independent, Aubrey works part-time
for the college Dean and has her sights set on graduating with distinction.
When she meets Dean Grant’s son, Daniel, the TA in her senior
Shakespearean studies course, a shared love of the Bard’s works and an instant
mutual attraction draw Aubrey and Daniel together. Unfortunately, a
strict anti-fraternizing policy, made more perilous by a black mark on Daniel’s
record, keeps them apart.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;"><b>My Review</b></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666;">Let me start out this review by saying that <i>The Weight of Words </i>is one of the most well written books I have read all year long. It was sharp, witty, and so well thought out. I adored the characters, the relationships, and all of the Shakespeare references. There really isn't anything that I didn't enjoy about this book other than the fact that it ended! </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666;">Aubrey is a smart and confident leading lady with a compassionate heart and a caring soul. She is simply put one of those characters that you just can't help but love. I thoroughly enjoyed her quick-wit and sarcasm, and dedication to school, work, and friends. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666;">Daniel is Aubrey's handsome yet brooding TA, who has an amazing way with words and can be completely and utterly charming when he isn't being a moody jerk. The sexual tension that brews between the two of them is off the charts (the library texting scene... hubba hubba), but there are also so many sweet and adorable moments that will have you grinning like an idiot. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666;">While the plot didn't have many twists and turns, and the curveballs that were thrown in were pretty easy to see coming, I still enjoyed the ride. I could FEEL the tension, frustration</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666;">, attraction, and love kindling between Daniel and Aubrey every step of the way, and I cannot wait to see what Guthrie has in store for these two lovable characters in the next installment! </span><br />

Remington Tate is a mystery, even to himself. His mind is dark and light,
complex and enlightening. At times his actions and moods are carefully
measured, and at others, they spin out of control.
Through it all, there's
been one constant: wanting, needing, loving, and protecting Brooke Dumas. This
is his story; from the first moment he laid eyes on her and knew, without a
doubt, she would be the realest thing he's ever had to fight for.</span><o:p></o:p></span></div>

day, it tells me I am god. The other, it tells me that I not only rule hell,

<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">I have never seen a look quite like

<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">She was not frightened of me. She was
frightened of “it.” This same thing clenching my gut that has me all tangled
up. Every cell in my body is buzzing with awareness. Every inch of my skin is
awake. My muscles feel primed like they do when I’m ready to fight. Except I’m
not ready to fight now. I’m ready to go get my mate.</span></span></div>

three dogs and spend my time baking, walking, writing, reading, and taking care
of my family. Thank you for spending your time with me and picking up my story.
I hope you had an amazing time with it, like I did. If you’d like to know more
about books in progress, look me up on the Internet, I’d love to hear from you!</span></div>

West, Crown prosecutor in domestic violence court, is working up a good case of
burnout: justice-by-the-book doesn’t seem to be working for the women she
represents. Plus, Helen’s love affair with Police Superintendent Geoffrey
Bailey is losing its fire. Things suddenly heat up when Helen learns that
humble Cath, her cleaning woman, is being beaten by her husband. Cath has no
family-her beautiful brother, Damien, has recently been brutally murdered-and
needs all the help she can get. But as the truth of Cath’s young life,
marriage, and her brother’s murder begin to take shape, help and justice seem
hard to come by . . . and may prove forever beyond reach.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">I
grew up in rural Derbyshire, but my adult life has been spent mostly in London,
with long intervals in Norfolk and Deal, all inspiring places. I was educated
mostly in convent schools; then studied English and went on to qualify as a
solicitor, working for what is now the Crown Prosecution Service, thus learning
a bit about murder at second hand. Years later, writing became the real
vocation, although the law and its ramifications still haunt me and inform many
of my novels.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">I’m
a novelist, short story writer for magazines and radio, sometime Radio 4
contributor, (Front Row, Quote Unquote, Night Waves,) and presenter of Tales
from the Stave. When I’m not working (which is as often as possible), I
can be found in the nearest junk/charity shop or auction, looking for the kind
of paintings which enhance my life. Otherwise, with a bit of luck, I’m
relaxing by the sea with a bottle of wine and a friend or two.</span></div>

<br>
Still trying to recover from a tragic loss, Lily’s worst fear is falling in
love. Distancing herself from everyone is the only way she can keep heartache
away.<br>

Deep down though, Lily realizes that living without Kyle is too painful. She
finds strength in Kyle’s arms, and he gives her the courage to face her past.
With every step forward, Lily continues to nurture and mend her damaged heart. <br>
<br>
Just when Lily feels closure within her grasp, secrets from the past finally
catch up with her, and Lily will discover that more than her heart is on the
line. <br>
<br>
Will love be enough to save Lily?<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: Cambria; mso-fareast-font-family: "Arial Unicode MS";"><o:p></o:p></span></b><br>

wordlessly thanking him for letting me in. His lips were strong but gentle,
warm with softness, and dominate in the most loving way. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">Kyle was not used to
sharing his feelings or any part of himself with others. Neither was I, but
together, we were making progress. We were slowly getting to know one another
as we shared our innermost thoughts.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Julie lived in a small town in Tennessee, where the most exciting thing ever to

how great my life was. How I lived without regrets. With constant laughter.
Without any tears. I want to tell you how I lived each moment to the fullest.
How each breath I took was fresh and full of life. With eagerness. Without any

finding the courage to leave her hometown in Alabama, Erin is finally happy
with where her life has led her. Not only is she secure in her environment, but
the relationships she has formed center her, making her forget how damaged she
once was. Before she can fully settle into her new life, her past crashes into
her present, unraveling a set of events that destroy the very foundation she has
built her new life on.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

My son loves stories, but not the kind you can read in an existing book. No, he’d rather make up a story, complete with our own illustrations. So, thank you, Son, for igniting a flame I had let go out. </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-size: 13.333333015441895px; text-align: start;"></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 12pt;">I also live with two dogs: a neurotic Border Collie we call Nitro and a midget Rottweiler named Nisa.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 12pt;">I have always found my sanctuary at the beach and in music and writing. I wish I could write rhymes so I could become a famous rapper, but rhyming is completely lost on me. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 12pt;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">I have a Bachelor’s degree in Business Management and a Master’s in Human Resource Management. I have held several jobs, from picking up dog crap to upper management positions. And now I am hoping to leave the business world behind so I can live full time in a world that does not exist until I place my fingers on a keyboard and bring them to fruition.</span> </span></div>

I really look forward to reading Remy's POV when Katy releases book 3 in a couple of weeks!<br />

<span style="font-size: 14.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Times;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;">Camryn Bennett has never
been happier. Five months after meeting on a Greyhound bus, she and her soul
mate Andrew Parrish are engaged-and a wedding isn't the only special event in
their future. Nervous but excited, Camryn can't wait to begin the rest of her
life with Andrew, a man she knows in her heart will love her always. They have
so much to look forward to-until tragedy blindsides them. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

doing the same. But when Andrew discovers Camryn is secretly harboring a
mountain of pain and attempting to numb it in damaging ways, there is nothing
he won't do to bring her back to life. Determined to prove that their love can
survive anything, Andrew decides to take Camryn on a new journey filled with
hope and passion. If only he can convince her to come along for the ride...<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="TX">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 200%;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;">I
hear the water from the shower shut off, and seconds later a loud <span class="ITAL"><span style="border: none;"><span style="border: none;">bang</span></span></span>
vibrates through the wall. I jump up from the chair, letting the remote control
hit the floor as I rush toward the bathroom. The edge of the coffee table clips
the shit outta my shin as I pass.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="TX">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 200%;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;">I
swing open the bathroom door. “What happened?”<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="TX">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 200%;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;">Camryn
shakes her head at me and smiles as she leans over to pick the hair dryer up
from the floor beside the toilet.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="TX">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 200%;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;">I
breathe a sigh of relief.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="TX">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 200%;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;">“You’re
more paranoid than I am,” she laughs.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="TX">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 200%;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;">She
glances down at my leg as I rub it with my fingertips. She sets the hair dryer
back on the counter, comes up to me, and kisses the side of my mouth. “Looks
like I’m not the one of us who needs to worry about being accident-prone.” She
smiles.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="TX">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 200%;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;">My
hands cup her shoulders and I pull her closer, letting one hand fall down to
touch her little rounded belly. I can barely tell she’s pregnant. At four
months I thought she’d at least be emulating a baby hippo, but what do I know
about this stuff?<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="TX">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 200%;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;">“Maybe
so,” I say, trying to hide the red in my face. “You probably did that on
purpose just to see how fast I could get in here.”<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="TX">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 200%;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;">She
kisses the other side of my mouth and then goes in for the kill, kissing me
fully and deeply while pressing her wet, naked body against mine. I moan
against her mouth, wrapping my arms around her.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="TX">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 200%;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;">But
then I pull away before I fall into her devious trap. “Dammit, woman, you’ve
gotta stop that.”<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="TX">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 200%;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;">She
grins back at me. “You <span class="ITAL"><span style="border: none;"><span style="border: none;">really</span></span></span> want me to stop?” she asks with
that up-to-no-good smile of hers.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="TX">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 200%;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e06666; font-family: inherit;">It
scares the shit out of me when she does that. Once after a conversation laced
with that smile, she stopped having sex with me for three whole days. Worst
three days of my life.<o:p></o:p></span></span><br />
