Laura’s Review of Ruckus (Sinners of Saint, #2) by L.J. Shen


Synopsis

Rosie 

They say that life is a beautiful lie and death a painful truth. They're right.
No one has ever made me feel more alive than the guy who serves as a constant reminder that my clock is ticking.
He is my forbidden, shiny apple.
The striking fallacy to my blunt, raw, truth.
He is also my sister's ex-boyfriend.
One thing you should know before you judge me;
I saw him first. I craved him first. I loved him first.
Eleven years later, he waltzed into my life, demanding a second chance.
Dean Cole wants to be my bronze horseman. My white knight has finally arrived. Hopefully, he isn’t too late.

Dean 

They say the brightest stars burn out the fastest. They’re right.
She sets my mind on fire.
All smart mouth, snarky attitude and a huge heart.
In a world where everything is dull, she shines like fucking Sirius.
Eleven years ago, fate tore us apart.
This time, I dare it to try.
Getting to her is a battlefield, but man, that’s why they call me Ruckus.
Rosie LeBlanc is about to find out how hard I can fight.
And conquering her will be the sweetest victory. 

What I Loved
        I literally couldn’t wait to get my hands on the next story in this series.  From word one I have been enamored with the Sinner of Saint series and each character has managed to not only suck me in but captivate me every single minute.  Worse, I can’t stop thinking about them when it’s all over and I just want more!  Of course, I had the same experience while reading Ruckus, I couldn’t wait to dive into Dean and Rosie’s story and all the drama and heartache again. 

        I loved how even though we knew Rosie and Dean before Ruckus, this story turned their character perceptions on their heads.  What I thought I knew about Dean was completely wrong, he always came off as the fun-loving guy from high school, who never had a care in the world but there was so much more to him.  Rosie was this sick girl who needed to be taken care of by her parents or her sister because of her disease, never seen as her own person but they both shatter those views in this book.  I loved the depths and the mystery behind both of them because it keeps you addicted as the reader and makes you fall in love with them and the plot.

Not So Much
        I’m keeping this short and sweet because I have no complaints about this book I loved it way too much.

To Sum It All Up!
        This was yet another amazing story written by L.J. Shen that I couldn’t get enough of.  The plot was thick with drama that had me smiling, crying, laughing, heated and totally in love.  I loved the complexity with not only the plot but with all of the characters and as you peeled back each layer you fell in love more and more with them.  The details were right on point, it was easy to imagine each scene and feelings running through each character because everything was written so beautifully.

I wasn’t sure how I would feel about Dean in this book, because he grew up to be quite the playboy and an asshole. It didn’t bother me that he dated in Rosie’s sister in high school because they both were past that point in their lives.  But he wasn’t the nicest person at times in Vicious so I wasn’t sure if he was the man that could step up and be the right person for Rosie, but he totally proved me wrong and I fell head over heels in love with him.


There are very few stories that make me feel as many emotions as Ruckus did, and there are no words to describe how amazing this story truly was.  I can’t recommend this book enough to people, it’s heavy with drama and determination and of course love! If you’re looking for something alluring with a little bit of mystery and a ton of drama than this is totally the book for you.

Letting Go of Us (Anchored Hearts Vol.3) By J.M. Witt Cover Re-Reveal!!!


Letting Go of Us
Anchored Hearts Vol.3
By J.M. Witt


Cassidy,

While grieving for my mother I lost sight of you, my love, my life, and what we had created. You said the one word I never wanted to hear from your lips and it nearly broke me. I know now that it was your plea for me to hear you.

I heard you and I planned on fixing it, even if it took the rest of my life. We never bargained for what came next. You became a stranger to me, my own wife. Wife. The word was suddenly foreign to me. Thrust into a situation we didn’t expect, you proved to me over and over again what love was. I pray you’ll let me return the favor.

My cage is empty and waiting for you, my Blackbird. I’ll spend eternity proving that I’m never letting go of us.

Always, only, forever… James

Letting Go of You (Anchored Hearts Vol. 2) By J.M. Witt Cover Re-Reveal!!


Letting Go of You
Anchored Hearts Vol. 2

By J.M. Witt


James,

Letting Go of You will be the hardest decision of my life.

We were devoted and committed to one another. Secret clubs, family, friends, careers and undeniable chemistry filled our lives. Previous troubles seemed nonexistent. We were ready and willing for whatever life had to offer. Life was perfect. If only ‘perfect’ really existed.

What I didn’t expect was that one tragic event would trigger the demons you kept hidden from me. I had to decide if I could live with not knowing your secrets. And just when I thought we would make it through, another hurdle was placed in front of us. Tragedy, murder, first loves, old enemies, and death lingered at every turn.

Will your demons be the death of us? Or will my anchored heart be strong enough to hold on?


Only You ~Cassidy

Inarticulate By Eden Summers Audio Book Tour!!


Inarticulate
By Eden Summers
Narrator: Maxine Mitchell



Synopsis


He’s silent—but his touch speaks louder than words.


At first sight, Savannah is drawn to the harsh appeal of a man who refuses to talk to her. Keenan’s hard stare is arrogant and unapologetic. The quirk of his sensuous lips is cocky and in control.

But there’s more. There’s something deeper he’s trying to hide behind those steely grey eyes—a slight hint of vulnerability which captures her intrigue.

She’d been warned, told that his silence hides a myriad of lies capable of affecting her career and relationships with loved ones. Only she can't help herself. Testing Keenan's defenses is an addiction she can't deny.


Falling in lust is easy. Learning his secrets comes with a price. The cost? Her broken heart.
