Devil's Due - Andrew Warren

29989358
In this exciting prequel to Tokyo Black, Thomas Caine struggles to keep a low profile in Pattaya, Thailand. But when human traffickers start an explosive war with the Thai police, Caine finds himself caught in the crossfire. A girl he has sworn to protect has been kidnapped by this shadowy syndicate, and Caine is forced to wage a bloody one man war to get her back. 

Soon, the former assassin finds himself taking on the Russian mafia, and an insane criminal warlord who believes that he is the devil himself! Can Caine use his deadly skills to defeat these new enemies, and help an honest cop find a group of missing girls before they are sold into slavery? 

This book is a prequel novella... Tokyo Black, the first full length Thomas Caine novel, is coming soon, Summer 2016!

*I received this book as an ARC to read and post a honest review*

This book was everything the blurb described and more.  It was bloody, fast paced, made us take a look into the dark side.  The whole book was coloured in shades of grey.  There was no clear cut black and white, right and wrong.  Everything was somewhere in the middle.
I loved the beginning.  I feel like it really showed what the book was going to be about without giving away anything and leaving us extremely confused and shocked.  The first part of the book made me brace myself for the rest of the book and boy am I glad I did!  
We were introduced to Thomas Caine, a man who had a lot of history behind him.  He was in hiding after being betrayed and wrongly accused of being a traitor by his country who did not the whole story.  He was wronged and he was looking for revenge and justice.   We were also introduced to Naiyana, a dancer in a strip club who Caine has sworn to protect.
When someone starts to kidnap girls from strip clubs to sell them at an auction.  Thomas Caine is summoned to help but, he refuses.  But, when Naiyana herself is kidnapped, Thomas Caine is desperate and suddenly he finds himself dealing with different crime branches in Thailand trying to find the people who are kidnapping the girls.
He deals with the Thai mob families, the russian mafia and an evil crime lord who thinks he is the devil and he sure acts like one.   In this book we find out that there are levels of evil.  A lot of people cross the line and do things they are not supposed to.  However, ever crime branch draws a line somewhere.  
My favourite character in this book was not Thomas Caine.  Though he was a great character.  My favourite character was Naiyana.  I feel like she completely trampled women stereotypes.   Though she was a stripper in a club, she was strong.  She was not scared of confrontation.  When she was captured, she did not lose her spirit.  She came back to help Thomas Caine when he got recaptured unlike the other girls.  She was tough.  I really admired her throughout the book.  That girl had a warm place in my heart by the end of the book.
My favourite part of the book was the ending.  I feel like it was appropriate ending for the novella.  I cannot tell you about the ending because that would spoil the book for you guys.  But I can say that it was a cliffhanger and a taster for things to come in the Thomas Caine books.
All in all this was an appropriate starter book and I thank the author for giving me this book to read.  I recommend this book to readers to buy and I am going to read more books by this author for sure.

And Never Let Her Go - Nancy Glynn



Eight years ago, Erin Donahue had it all—her own city apartment, a career in photography, and a man who’d do anything for her. But things change. Fate steps in. Now, living in the small town of Destiny, IL, Erin embraces her new life, free of hurting anyone else. She’s all alone, and she likes it like that. Independent, strong…and broken. Until a handsome, divorced rancher drives up her lane and drags her back into a past she wants to forget. 

A forbidden crush born long ago… 

In Afghanistan, Slade Callahan tucks Erin into his dreams and his heart. Guilt plagues him for wanting her when she isn’t his to want. She belongs to his older brother. But when Erin breaks his brother’s heart, she never realizes she’s breaking two. Honor keeps him from going after her. Discharged from the Marines, Slade moves on with his life and lets her go. Until tragedy strikes. His brother is dead. Found in his car with two letters…one to his wife—and one to Erin. 

A letter full of hope and secrets… 

Erin and Slade come together, fighting a love that won’t let go. Tormented by guilt, shame, anger, and the need to forgive, walls slowly crumble. Setting off a firestorm of buried passions, they embrace the truth in the stars. But their journey is only beginning when the letter is read. Decisions must be made. Is Erin strong enough to accept herself and trust in this beautiful love, or will she repeat history with another Callahan man?

“This book was an ARC given to me by the author Nancy Glynn in exchange for a honest review”

This was a book I had picked up after a long reading slump to try and get me out of it and I am so glad that this author gave the book to me to read because it sure did.
I have always loved the contemporary romance genre but, I was not too sure how I would relate to a book with the characters a lot older than I am.  But the characters were not only relatable but they took me on the story with them.  It was a ride that I did not want to get out of and I wanted everyone to reach safely at the end.   
What I loved about this story was that it was real.  The characters were flawed and their flaws were not sugar coated.  They were clearly flaws and though the characters would not have been the same without them, they were working on those flaws.
As most contemporary romance novels, it did have a happy ending but, the happy ending was not easily achieved.  The characters had to go through a lot of struggles to reach that successful end goal.
All the characters in this book made it the book it is.  Todd, Slade, Erin, Wendy and even the supporting characters like Judy, Harry, Mack, Nick and Rachel.  They all made the story what it was as a final product.
I loved Erin and Slade’s love story.  It wasn’t quick.  It had been boiling for a few years.  It was really hot.  You could feel the sexual tension sizzling under the surface and when it caught fire.  Whew!! I had to fan myself with something.  But, besides the sexual tension, there was something in their relationship which made it special.  Maybe it was the conversations between them or the way the two of them were always there for each other or just that overall feeling of pure happiness when they were not around each other.  Sure their relationship was not perfect but that just made it all the more better.  Sometimes you need a bump in the road to see the strength of a relationship.
Wendy was not a villain as such.  Todd’s wife, she was just an obstacle standing in the way.   There was nothing wrong with her, to be honest, I just felt bad for her.  She had just been a recipient of unfortunate circumstances and she just did not know how to handle it.  I loved Jacob, Todd and Wendy’s son!! He was the sweetest boy ever.
My favourite part of the book was when Erin was taking pictures and making memories through her camera.  She was a great photographer and I feel its very important to capture memories and keep them because time flies.
I think one of the most important lessons in this book was forgiveness and letting go and there were a few lines I really loved in this book.
One line was what Todd had written in his letter.  I think this applies to everyone who is going through rough times.  Someone needs to say that to all of them “ Forgive yourself.  You are perfect just the way you are.  Believe that.”  I think everyone needs to hear that at least once in their life and I am glad Nancy Glynn put that in there.  
Anyways, overall this book was amazing and it is completely worth buying.  So any contemporary romance lovers out there who are looking for a happy ever after but, also want to curl up and shed some tears on the unfairness of life.  This book is for you so, take the risk and read the book.  It will be worth your time.

BOOK TOUR : GIRL'S GOT SECRETS - LINDA KAGE


                        Book Blurb 
Here’s the same old “girl posing as a boy” story but with a rock-n-roll twist.

Remy Curran dreams of one day being in a band, except the group she wants to join refuses to hire a girl drummer. So, she auditions as a guy...and makes the cut.

Becoming “Sticks,” a member of Non-Castrato, isn’t quite what she dreamed it would be, though. She spends most of her time keeping up the subterfuge and learning how to walk, talk, act, and drink like a man.

But what’s even harder to deal with is acting oblivious when the band’s heartthrob lead singer, Asher Hart, treats her like one of the guys and not a woman. She never imagined he’d be so much more than a pretty face with a nice voice. But he’s better than perfect. He’s perfect for her.


When love and lies combine, Remy must keep up the act or lose everything. But who knew lying to reach one dream could prevent you from attaining an even bigger dream?

Sneak Peaks 
Excerpt 1 :

"...You look just perfect. I would so throw you down on your bed and ride you right now if I didn’t know you were really a girl in there. Hell, I’m tempted to, anyway.”

I rolled my eyes but chased it with a smile. “Thanks. I think.”

“Now practice your man walk,” she demanded, waving out her hand.

I faltered. “My what?”

She sighed. “You’re not going to pass for a dude if you stroll in there with your hidden girl hips swaying and flattened tits pooched out on display.”

My mouth fell open. “Excuse me. I do NOT walk like that.”

She snorted. “Oh...own it, puta. You’re a hot piece of ass, you can’t help the girly swagger.”

“But I don’t—”

“Hunch your shoulder over a little more, concentrate on keeping your hips in line, and try to jut your cock forward when you strut.”

“Do...what?”

“That’s how hot guys walk, like they’re leading with their junk.”

I could only shake my head. I had honestly never seen a guy walk as if he were trying to poke his pecker out ahead of him. “Where do you come up with this shit?”

“Just do it, puta.”

I sighed but used her suggestions, trying to overdramatize the cock-and-go strut, as I was thusly dubbing it.

“What do you think?” I asked.
She purred out a promiscuous growl and clawed the air in my direction. “How do you say ‘I want to sit on your face’ in Spanish?”

Excerpt 2 :

Remy and I bent at the same time to turn on the karaoke machine.
“Sorry,” we murmured together when we nearly bumped foreheads. Then we shifted an inch apart but still both going in to get the machine up and running.
“Holy shit,” she murmured under her breath, turning toward me slightly. “You smell really good.”
I didn’t want it to, but my body reacted, remembering every touch, lick, and kiss she’d ever given me. I glanced at her face, and her eyes flared as if she was in trouble for saying such a thing.
“Sorry.” She lifted both hands in some kind of surrender. “It’s just...it’s new. You’ve never smelled like that before.”
Lust stirred through me. I tried to bite it back, tried to cling to the fact I was mad at her, but a need unlike any I’d ever experienced with any other person roared through my blood.
I had to shake my head and blink myself back to the present, remind myself where I really was and what I was doing. And that was most definitely not Remy Curran.
“It’s, uh...Eva gave it to me as the best man gift. I figured I should wear it today.”
She nodded, agreeing. “Well, it’s amazing. I think I just got pregnant.”

Favorite Scene to Write

I’d have to say my favorite scene to write in The Girl’s Got Secrets was where Asher catches Remy in the shower. He still doesn’t know girl-Remy exists yet, so for him, he thinks he’s meeting a new person completely.  I have no idea if I wrote it well enough for everyone else to feel the sparks, but I certainly felt them when I was writing. It was fun and entertaining for me to create as it was steamy too, which totally made my day.  When  Asher went and flirted with her, I just melted.  I’d never seen him in flirt mode before, and I just gotta say, I like it!  So does Remy...though she had to try to hide it. 

Here’s a little peek into that scene:

I jogged to the hotel and retrieved my key card from my pocket as I approached my room.
The light was still off as it’d been when I’d left a few minutes earlier, but the bathroom door had changed. It was shut most of the way so only an inch of a crack showed, revealing the light was on inside. The sounds of a shower and singing filtered out into the hotel room.
“...And a hug around the neck. A hug around the neck...,” a clearly feminine voice serenaded from the bathroom.
I froze, frowning hard, as the lyrics to Doris Day’s “A Bushel and a Peck” continued. At first, I wigged out, afraid I’d just entered the wrong room. I began to backpedal, afraid to be caught in someone else’s room, but then I wondered why my key had gotten me in. So I flipped on the light.
My laptop sat on my bed and the blankets on Remy’s side were rumpled and unmade. Plus his familiar suitcase and my duffle sat on the floor, so I knew I had the right room.
But who the hell was in our shower? From the sound of it, I would’ve thought Sticks had snuck in a woman, except he wasn’t into women.
Wrinkling my brow, I inched cautiously toward the crack in the bathroom door. Using the tips of my fingers, I reached out, standing as far back as possible, and gently nudged the entrance open. Steam exited, clouding around me as the woman’s voice grew louder.
“...You make my heart erect,” she continued to wail with a pretty decent set of pipes. I lifted my eyebrows, intrigued.
I have no idea why, but I said, “Remy?” I already knew that wasn’t him in there.
In answer, the woman screamed.
“What the—” Confused as all get-out as to what was going on, I reached for the shower curtain and yanked it open.
Inside, the naked, wet woman yelped again, instantly shoving one arm over her breasts and splaying her free hand between her legs to cover herself.
“Holy shit!” I gasped.
We gaped at each other, the water spraying down on her and forcing her long dark hair to clog into her face.
Rationally, I knew I should turn away, but yeah...for some reason, I’d kind of lost the ability to think rationally. Instead, I shook my head, and demanded, “Who’re you?”
She shoved her hair out of her face so she could see me, probably forgetting that she had to uncover her breast to use her hand, because suddenly, I was being flashed some very nice tits indeed.
My gaze instantly dropped to her chest, and she gasped, slapping her arm back over herself. A split second later, she snatched the shower curtain and wrapped it around her, concealing all the best parts.
“No hablo inglés,” she panted in this super-hot sexy voice that had my hormones raging even harder.
Ah, shit. I shook my head, still completely flabbergasted. “You don’t know English?”
“No.” She shook her head. “No hablo inglés.”
“Fuck.” I wiped my hand over my face, glad I hadn’t started drooling or anything, because...wow. There was a very hot Spanish-speaking chick in my shower. “Well, I know crap Spanish.” Glancing behind me, I muttered to myself, “Where the hell is Remy when you need him?”
Behind me, shower girl repeated, “¿Remy?” I spun back to her and she babbled something in Spanish, her hand waving the entire time.
I blinked, understanding absolutely nothing. But she’d said Remy’s name, so I slowly asked, “You know Remy?”
She nodded, her eyes lighting with recognition. “Sí. Remy.” Then she spouted off something else. I was sure I caught the word amigo in there, so I snapped my finger.
“Amigo,” I repeated. Yes, a word I understood. “Friend. Okay. So...he let you in to take...a shower...alone?”
I squinted because there was no way that sounded as if it were even plausible.
“Dios,” she moaned, clutching the shower curtain closer to her breasts. Then she bit her lip and waved me away with a free hand, sputtering something in Spanish that went way over my head. But the shooing motion and desperation on her face made her plea obvious enough.
“Shit, sorry.” I suddenly realized how badly I’d been gawking. Lifting my hands, I backed up a step toward the half closed bathroom door behind me until I nudged it with my spine. “I’ll...let you finish.” But I couldn’t seem to take my gaze off her. She was just...stunning. “And I swear, I’ll look away...soon. Once the blood stops rushing to my dick and returns to my head and I can think rationally again, because...wow.”

Girl's Got Secrets - Linda Kage

Here’s the same old “girl posing as a boy” story but with a rock-n-roll twist.

Remy Curran dreams of one day being in a band, except the group she wants to join refuses to hire a girl drummer. So, she auditions as a guy...and makes the cut.

Becoming “Sticks,” a member of Non-Castrato, isn’t quite what she dreamed it would be, though. She spends most of her time keeping up the subterfuge and learning how to walk, talk, act, and drink like a man.

But what’s even harder to deal with is acting oblivious when the band’s heartthrob lead singer, Asher Hart, treats her like one of the guys and not a woman. She never imagined he’d be so much more than a pretty face with a nice voice. But he’s better than perfect. He’s perfect for her.

When love and lies combine, Remy must keep up the act or lose everything. But who knew lying to reach one dream could prevent you from attaining an even bigger dream?


*Thank you Tasty Book Tours for giving an ARC in exchange for a review and a blog spot.*

This is the seventh book in the series Forbidden Men and it has taken my heart just like all others.  Linda Kage has become one of my favourite authors because her ideas are so original and all the characters have developed such strong characteristics that you think they are real people and you want to meet them some day.
This story was about ( wait for it…) well known Asher Hart who we have all fallen in love with in the previous books.  ( Atleast I have ).  The close friend of Zoey and the confidante of Caroline he loves to anger Ten.  Everyone loves to anger Ten though.  
We are introduced to a new character Remy Curran who wants to be in a band really bad.  However Asher Hart’s band Non-Castrato does not accept a girl so, she auditions as a guy and gets in.
Acting as a guy became harder than she thought.  Especially because she started have feelings for Asher.  Suddenly the only person who she was worried about hurting was the one person who would be hurt the most.
I loved Asher and Remy’s relationship.  It showed that sometimes love does not develop just because of the sex.  Couples who really love each other, love each other because of the comfort they get around each other.  “Sticks” and Asher had that comfort though all Asher thought was that “Sticks” was a really good friend.
Linda Kage was so good at making Remy into two personalities that even I started believing it and I knew the truth!
I liked all the side stories as well.  The relationship developing between Brandt and Sarah was adorable and I have a feeling that is going to be the next story.  How cool is that?  Mason’s sister and Noel’s brother.
Also the growing relationship between half brothers.  Pick and Asher.  Asher was finally finding out that he deserved love after a rough childhood being with his half brother and all the bartenders who had become his close friends.  Those guys at the Forbidden bar are like family, and the respective others that come along with them are really hard not to love.  Especially if you have read about all their stories and how hard it was for all of them to get where they are now.
There were some hot sex scenes.  Some use of handcuffs.  People who have read the book, know what I am talking about.  The ending was adorable.
Anyways Linda Kage delivers again and this series is recommended to everyone who is reading this review who likes new adult and who is looking for something like this.

I will be reading more books by Linda Kage in the future.  That is for sure.

Before I Fall - Lauren Oliver

With this stunning debut novel, New York Times bestselling author Lauren Oliver emerged as one of today's foremost authors of young adult fiction. Like Jay Asher's Thirteen Reasons Why and Gayle Forman's If I Stay, Before I Fall raises thought-provoking questions about love, death, and how one person's life can affect so many others.

For popular high school senior Samantha Kingston, February 12—"Cupid Day"—should be one big party, a day of valentines and roses and the privileges that come with being at the top of the social pyramid. And it is…until she dies in a terrible accident that night.

However, she still wakes up the next morning. In fact, Sam lives the last day of her life seven times, until she realizes that by making even the slightest changes, she may hold more power than she ever imagined.

Named to numerous state reading lists, this novel was also recognized as a Best Book of the Year by Amazon.com, Barnes & Noble, The Daily Beast, NPR, and Publishers Weekly. It has been optioned for film by Fox 2000 Pictures.

Supports the Common Core State Standards.

Samantha Kingston narrated this story “Before I Fall”.  It was a first person narration.  The narrator was a reliable source about her own feelings and thoughts but, not everybody else’s.   This book was set in a small town where Samantha goes to high school and she is a popular teen there.  The setting makes a difference as the book revolves around high school teenagers and their issues.  Including but not limited to bullying and suicide and drinking and drugs.   
I think what the book was trying to say was that sometimes thing you say and do have a bigger impact than you realise and sometimes it is like a domino effect.  There was a quote which showed this message “It amazes me how easy it is for things to change, how easy it is to start off down the same road you always take and wind up somewhere new. Just one false step, one pause, one detour, and you end up with new friends or a bad reputation or a boyfriend or a breakup. It's never occurred to me before; I've never been able to see it. And it makes me feel, weirdly, like maybe all of these different possibilities exist at the same time, like each moment we live has a thousand other moments layered underneath it that look different.”   
The book was contemporary with a slight bit of romance.  However, it was more about death.  A lot of other books which I have read in this genre are similar.  There is a lot of hope in these books.  A lot of wondering what is going to happen next.  A lot of praying that somehow things are going to turn out alright.  Even though you know that is probably not going to happen and these type of books if they are written well always make me cry.
The author’s name is Lauren Oliver and I have not read any other books by her.   So I can’t really compare other books because I don’t know.
So, basically Samantha died while her best friend was drunk driving and they crashed.  However, instead of dying she had to relive her last day 7 times.  Each time Samantha started realising things about her life she hadn’t before and it shocked her and she tried to change it.  Sometimes there are only certain things you can change and yet you hold all the power.
I liked the book.  I was glad that Samantha realised what a bitch she was by the end of the book.  I think it was fitting that you cannot change death but, you can make as little changes as you can in other people’s lives.  I liked the idea of reliving her last day seven times.  I wonder what I would change if I relived my last day seven times.
I loved a quote in this book and I keep on going back to it.  “So many things become beautiful when you really look.”  which is so true.  You go to life just glancing at things.  Everyone does it so you can’t even deny it.  Sometimes you really need to observe.
One thing I did not like about the book was her relationship with Kent.  The relationship as a whole was sweet but,  ( now I guess this is personal opinion ) I thought what she did to him was unnecessary.  She knew she was going to die.  I thought it was mean to make him go through that.  But, then again he might have gone through it anyways and how do you stop self - realisation I guess.    Saying goodbye must have been so hard for Samantha.  
I would read other books by the author.  Completely.   Though some of her books are science fiction.  I really liked this book so the author deserves more books to be read which are by her.  

I would encourage other people to read this book because I want other people to realise what a big impact actions can make on people.  How they can make and break people’s lives.  Also because I loved the book :)

4/5 Umbrellas :)
