Back to Life- Dani René
Second chance at love and life...
These two have had tragic endings to their previously thought to be happily ever afters. Back to Life is a sweet story featuring to widowed single parents.
Whispered Prayers of a Girl- Alex Grayson
You know that time you read the blurb and said...hmm, that's gonna make me cry. But being a masochist, you decide to read it.
So when you start crying 4% in, you nod your head and think yup totally crying. Then at 15% when you start blubbering, you think it's to be expected. Each time the tears fall, the characters steal a bigger piece of your heart. I would say that the author is amazing, but I'm too busy being snippy that she laughed at me- repeatedly. (Let me take a moment to say that though I don't know Alex Grayson, I took it upon myself to message her/call her out on Facebook for making me cry. She laughed- in case you didn't catch that. It might have had something to do with the request for eyeball wipers...to catch tears as they fall to keep from clouding my vision. Not sure exactly...)
I will also say that the warning in the book is bull- you need two washcloths instead of tissues. They are more absorbent. One for tears and the second as back up for snot. It's not attractive or classy but believe me way better than a used box of tissues at your feet. Plus it's easier to hide the evidence of a late night sobfest. (If say your significant other kicked you out of bed for sniffling too much and you continued to read out of desperate need to know what happens.)
Don't let me whining dissuade you, it's a beautiful story. You just have to learn to let go. Learn to feel it or be totally overwhelmed by the emotions. (That sounded good right!?!)
What you need to take away from this review:
1. Alex Grayson laughs at your tears...well at mine
2. Washcloths are more absorbent and make late night crying jags easier to hide.
3. This beautiful story has a warning- tissues are not to be overlooked. It's either tissues or washcloths- just saying.
4. Scars are tell the story of our lives. Sometimes that story isn't pretty but the life is.
5. Alex Grayson is still laughing at your tears...propbably.
6. It's hard not to fall in love with characters like these.
P.S. You will cry, unless you are a heartless individual in which case you are probably related to the laughing author.
P.P.S. I absolutely loved this book!
Wicked Truths- LA Cotton
A little taste of Wicked Bay in this novella. You may or may not remember Vin, it took an introduction to a certain stone cold Prince-ss for me to catch on! Lol. As a Wicked Bay fan, I loved the visit to "home".
It was fun to see new blood, even if its technically old blood. Vin's story is an HEA because he deserves it! (Cue the sighs and hopelessly devoted...music)
