There has been much talk in the book world about some of these books that I too am very excited for and can NOT wait to hold them! So, here's a list of a few books I can't wait for!
Comment below to let me know yours!
One More Chance by Abbi Glines! (Hopefully I can have my review for Take A Chance up soon!)
Grant Carter did everything in his power to convince Harlow Manning that he was a good guy. More than a smooth-talker and someone she could trust. He had to overcome his reputation as a playboy, and his history with Harlow's half-sister, Nan, a woman with a reputation of her own.
Harlow had taken the chance, falling hard and fast for the guy who thrilled her with his all-consuming desire. After a lifetime of avoiding bad boys like Grant, she had opened herself to the possibilities of love...
But a life-changing secret has torn them apart, and now Grant and Harlow must decide if they have enough fight to make it work - or if the pain of betrayal has permanently destroyed their future.
You Were Mine by Abbi Glines (Oh my gosh, Tripp, I've been waiting!)
From #1 "New York Times "bestselling author Abbi Glines comes a brand-new Rosemary Beach novel about Tripp Newark and his hidden romantic past with Bethy Lowry.
In the eyes of the wealthy playboys who frequent Kerrington Country Club in Rosemary Beach, Tripp Newark is a hero. Under pressure from his parents to become a lawyer and lead a conservative, upper-class life, Tripp disappeared from town five years ago to travel the world, forfeiting the opportunity to inherit millions. Yet few know what he was really running from...
Bethy Lowry was unraveling long before her boyfriend drowned in a riptide trying to save her after she'd had one too many drinks--again. A trailer park kid working as a cart girl among the wealthy patrons of Kerrington Country Club, Bethy has always been impressionable. But five years ago, before she earned her reputation as a hard-drinking, easy girl, she had spent a single summer with Tripp Newark that changed her life forever...
Ripped by Katy Evans
Every woman wants me--except the one I sing for.
Seattle shakes with anticipation: they call it the concert of the year. They say girls are getting pregnant just thinking about my band being in town.
But when you love a girl, you don't leave her with nothing but a ring and a promise. Any man with half a brain should know.
So what did I expect my girl would do when she saw me again?
Well, for starters, she loathes our music. Particularly the song I wrote about her.
When I sing it, the stadium is in an uproar. Thousands of fans scream my name like I'm a god--but yeah, not her. Crystal clear: the girl's not happy to see me.
Black hair, black boots, a bad attitude, that's her -- Pandora Stone is a freaking man-eater and she's out for my blood.
That's alright.
Let her come at me. Because I'm out for her heart and, this time, there's no way she can stop me.
Ugly Love by Colleen Hoover (I just want to hug this!)
When Tate Collins meets airline pilot Miles Archer, she knows it isn’t love at first sight. They wouldn’t even go so far as to consider themselves friends. The only thing Tate and Miles have in common is an undeniable mutual attraction. Once their desires are out in the open, they realize they have the perfect set-up. He doesn’t want love, she doesn’t have time for love, so that just leaves the sex. Their arrangement could be surprisingly seamless, as long as Tate can stick to the only two rules Miles has for her.
Never ask about the past.
Don’t expect a future.
They think they can handle it, but realize almost immediately they can’t handle it at all.
Hearts get infiltrated.
Promises get broken.
Rules get shattered.
Love gets ugly.

Book Slump
Yes, you read that correctly. I am in another slump that I've been in for quite a while. I did finish Daughter of Smoke and Bone some time ago and enjoyed it very much but can't seem to find it in myself to write a review for it. I can't seem to write reviews for much of anything right now. As you can imagine, it's very frustrating.
I hope to very soon have up my reviews of Rush Too Far and Daughter of Smoke and Bone on my blog soon and hope you guys aren't to upset that there haven't been any reviews lately. I'm trying to read many books right now and am having a very hard time reading and reviewing. There is a list of books that is my TBR but it keeps on getting higher and higher, making it very discouraging for me to read.
I really want to read Game of Thrones (the entire series) and each book adds about 500 pages so I may not reach my 100 books goal, but I'd certainly reach a new goal with a number of pages!
Anyway, thanks for your patience and I'll get back to you soon!

The Summer I Fell by Sonya Loveday Cover Reveal
Riley Clifton can’t remember a time when she wasn’t
a part of the Six, a group of rowdy boys who would do just about anything for her.
Growing up alongside of six guys is never easy. Especially in high school. Falling in love
with one of the Six? Even harder when Ace has a hold of her heart, and he doesn’t even
know it.
Jake (Ace) Aceton has loved Riley for a long time, but has
kept the secret oath of the Six. Riley was off limits. At least until after graduation. When
he overhears Riley admitting to her best friend, Paige how she feels about him, Ace
doesn't let his chance slip by. Riley, in his mind, has always been his.
When her college plan falls through, and her future is left
to the hands of fate, Riley finds herself scrambling to keep up with all the changes. But
that's not the hardest part. The hardest part is saying good-bye, especially to Ace.
Heartache, hard lessons, and a love deeper than her
Alabama roots will threaten to crumble Riley’s world as she waits for Ace’s return.
Will Riley and Ace’s love be strong enough to hold them
together when life tries to tear them apart?
Sonya Loveday, first and foremost is a reader, an avid
one. It is of that love that brought her to the realization that this was the answer to the
nagging persistent feeling that ‘there’s got to be something more’.
The dream came alive in 2009 when she purchased her laptop and began the tedious step
of becoming a published author.
When she’s not reading, she’s writing. When she’s not writing, she’s reading. And when
she’s not doing either of those things she’s sleeping, shuttling her children back and forth
to school, letting the dogs and cats in and out of the house for the umpteenth time in the
last hour and dreaming of a clean house.

Sparks by RS McCoy COVER RE-REVEAL
Sparks Cover Re-Release Day Extravaganza!
"Everyone in
the world has a Spark, a light inside that guides them, keeps them alive.”
Myxini School for Children specializes in training young
men and women who have powerful Sparks. Strikers are taught to manipulate fire.
Trackers learn to find animals in the most formidable terrains. Handlers are
instructed in communication with large predators. But forty years have passed
since the last time they had a Reader – a student with the ability to read
minds.
When Lark Davies enrolls at Myxini, he knows there aren’t
many like him, but he doesn’t realize just how rare his abilities really are.
He thinks nothing of being asked to keep his Spark a secret; after all, he can
barely control it. Thoughts and emotions flood unbidden into his mind until he
can scarcely walk or hold a conversation. But just when he needs it most, his
ability fails him.
Lark meets Khea, a small frightened girl who mysteriously
ignites his protective nature. He has no explanation for the curious strength
of their relationship, and it doesn’t help that she is one of the few people in
the world whose thoughts can’t be read. As he struggles to get to the root of
their unique bond, Lark begins to unravel more power than even his mentor
expected, but in the process makes himself a target to political leaders eager
to take control.

Teaser:
Wearing only my loose brown pants, I
crawled into the
most comfortable bed I had ever known and sank into the soft down pillows. I
had just started to drift off when I heard a knock at the door. I’m going to kill Avis.
“What do you–” I started until I
realized it wasn’t
Avis. It was a stunning blonde with blue eyes. </
span>Khea.
“I’m sorry to wake you. I just– I had to
see you.” Her
arms moved to wrap around my waist and hold me tight as I questioned if I was
really sleeping or not.
“Uh, do you want to come in?” We
both knew the rules
about being in someone else’s room after hours, so I pulled her in and sat down
on the edge of the bed, still a little surprised she was there.
In the dim light her hair looked a little
darker, but
her face was still sweet and there was no denying that the last two years had
done her well. Who would have thought such a beautiful young woman would come
from that skinny little girl in Lagodon?
“How’d you know I was back?” I asked
her, trying to
appear less tired or shocked than I was.
“A friend told me.”
“I didn’t think you–” Cared? It wasn’t
the right word,
but I was beyond amazed that she was interested in my whereabouts. I hadn’t
seen her since that night at the Moonwater and it had changed everything for me
since then. But for her, I wasn’t aware that she had been affected in any way.
“Ride with me tomorrow?”
“Uh, yea, of course.” It was a struggle
to cover how
little I wanted to wait. I would have given anything to have her stay.
A wide smile erupted across her sweet
lips as she
said, “meet me at the lake at noon.” With a lingering kiss on my cheek, she
walked back through the door and disappeared into the dark stone corridor.
What just happened? I hadn’t seen her in
person in years, and we were hardly close before that. And now she arrived in
my room in the middle of the night and kissed me on the cheek. Was it a kiss
like a friend would give another? Or more? I couldn’t make any sense of it, but
there was only thing I was sure of. I would be at the lake at noon if it was
the last thing I did.

In which a teenage girl endures the over-protective love of her adoptive mother until she falls for a boy who has her wanting to spread her wings, pitched as a contemporary retelling of RAPUNZEL
Seventeen-year-old Anya leads a very secluded life in a house on the edge of town with her adopted mother. She doesn't go to school, but instead has a private tutor. Her over-protective mom keeps her so sheltered that she doesn't even have a best friend.
But Anya doesn't seem to mind. She has her books, her photography, and her daydreams, and would do anything to please her mom. Until one day at the library, the only place she's allowed to go, she takes a picture of a beautiful boy.
Before long she's lying to her mom, and sneaking out late at night to meet Zander. But Zander wants more than a secret romance. If Anya wants to be with the boy of her dreams, she will have to risk her relationship with the only other person she's ever cared about.

What he didn't expect was for the girl across the street to move back home and remind him of what they both lost: Dewayne's younger brother Dustin. However, when a miniature version of Dustin opens the door to greet him, Dewayne realizes he might not have lost everything after all.
Sienna Roy loved Dustin Falco most of her life. He was the boy next door, the high school basketball star and her best friend. But when his life was cut short, she realized he left a part of himself behind.
Now, she's back in Sea Breeze, thankful to have a home for her and Dustin's son, but not sure if she can ever forgive the people across the street who abandoned her when she needed them the most — The Falcos.
Betrayal, lies, and forbidden attraction might end Dewayne and Sienna's story before it's even begun.
EXCERPT
“It has been a long time. Why are you here?” I replied, not taking my eyes off Dewayne. He was still larger than life. More so than when I was a teenager. He had a few more piercings now and a couple more tattoos. His shoulders were even wider, and the thick, corded muscles in his arms were intimidating. The man was like a brick wall. Yet those eyelashes of his were still too thick for a male, and even though he’d pierced his lip, it didn’t take away from the plumpness that women paid good money to mimic. The worn jeans that looked like they needed a good washing hugged him in a way I wanted to ignore. I had to ignore. This man was off-limits to me.
He wasn’t just the nice guy who had been my friend when I was younger. He was also a man who had abandoned me when I’d needed someone the most. Even if he was delicious and what female fantasies were made of, I would never forgive him. Dustin had adored him, yet Dustin’s son didn’t even know him.
He cocked an eyebrow at me, as if he was surprised by my reaction to him. “Came over to see who the new neighbors were. Beat-to-shit car parked out front concerned me. Neighborhood’s not what it used to be.”
Once I wouldn’t have been able to look past his perfectly chiseled face and full lips to get angry with him. That wasn’t the case any longer. My hands fisted at my sides, and I wanted nothing more than to punch him in the nose. I owned that car. I had worked hard to buy that car.
“I’ll keep that in mind. I can assure you we’re not going to cause any problems,” I replied, walking over to the door and putting my hand on it to let him know I was done with this visit and wanted him to leave.
Dewayne frowned, and his dark eyes, which in my dreams had looked at me like he had today when I’d walked into the room, were now narrowed. Great, I’d managed to piss off the massive, monster-size man who could knock me down with one hard puff. “Where did that sweet girl I used to know go? You lose her somewhere?” Dewayne’s voice was even, but the low, menacing sound to it bothered me.
What did he expect me to do? Bat my eyelashes at him and swoon like I had when I was a kid? “She learned to toughen up and trust no one.” I gripped the door, fighting the urge to slam it in his face. Because I was pretty sure he could rip it off its hinges if provoked. “Thanks for stopping by. Now that you know we aren’t about to dirty up the neighborhood with our presence, you can go on back to your parents’ place. We’re fine here.” I started closing the door. Dewayne stepped back. To my surprise, he turned around, then started walking away.
