Sugar Daddy - Sawyer Bennett

So I wrote the below review just minutes after I finished this book last month. I thought, well it's a bit rough so I'll edit it before I actually post it. I have changed my mind, I think I am going to keep it just as it is. If you read this book you will understand my burst of emotion in this review. I really don't find many books I rate 5 stars but somehow this author manages to get them out of me!


 Have you ever finished a book, and the curse words swimming through your head would kill someone dead if ever muttered out loud? Well be warned, this is one of those curse inducing cliff hanger endings that will have you singing the authors accolades while you simultaneously wish horrible things on her. I love you but I hate you Sawyer Bennett.

This emotion inducing story features Sela, who survives something completely horrible on her sixteenth birthday and works her way forward in life just trying to put the pieces back together. A life derailed by a revenge plot that is complicated by the incredibly handsome and powerful Beck, who gave her hope, but is it enough?

Reading this you kind of know what is going to happen, but you wish it wouldn't. But then it does, and I found myself just hoping that it isn't really what happened, but it is. Does this make any sense?

Once again Ms. Bennett has delivered a story with characters you love and hate. Characters you root for and those you wish would trip on something sharp. I am completely bummed that I have to wait six months for the next installment of this story. I was truly not ready for it to be over.

Well done, well done.

Something More Than This - Barbie Bohrman

This is a very witty, romantic read from Barbie Bohrman. I found it at times to be laugh out loud funny, and pretty delightful.

Katy Lewis is a sports reporter whose Best Friend Dylan is her boss. I love her female best friend Mimi, who I found at times balanced out the story line of Katy's indecision between the love of the present (Dylan) and the love of her past (Connor). Mimi provided some much needed comic relief and I very much enjoyed her character. Also, the dynamic between Katy and her brothers was refreshing and heartwarming.

Connor was the boy who broke her heart, and when he returns to her life, Katy must make a crucial life choice. This story was light on angst, but provided just enough to make the story interesting. The dialogue between characters was fantastic and I especially loved the ending.

Once again Barbie Bohrman has given us an enjoyable read!

On The Rocks - Kim Law

On The Rocks is the third book in the Turtle Island series. Now I haven't read any of the other books in this series, so I honestly don't know if I'm missing anything. I will tell you there is mention of characters from previous books but it doesn't seem to hinder this story. With that said, I truly found this book enjoyable!

Ginger and Carter were very close friends in high school. Carter moved away, married and has now returned to Turtle Island when what he thought was the perfect life, turned out to not be so perfect. In fact it turned out to be pretty disastrous.

Ginger has stayed on the island and taken over her fathers boating business. I love that Ginger is a tom boy, and is able to take care of herself. She's at an impasse in life and tired of waiting for Mr. Right, but hoping that he's out there somewhere.

There's a lot of common ground between these two characters. I found it to be a very compelling, entertaining story and stayed interested the entire time. I will definitely check out some of the other books in this series.
