It had been six years since my world was turned upside down.

He exposed me to the darker side of life and I could never go back to the person I was.

I had been through more things the average person couldn’t even relate to.

If I had the chance to go back and do things differently though?

Not a chance.

I’d pick him a thousand times. A million times. For eternity.

I guess not much has changed.

My name is Alexa Ballentine, and I am still in love with my stalker.

I feel like we’ve been waiting for Twitch’s homecoming as long as Lexi has been mourning him.

If it’s been awhile since you’ve read Raw, I highly recommend a re-read!  I did it and #ThatBelt still.  OMG.

This book is worth the wait that we had.

I loved getting, not only Lexi and Twitch’s point of views, but Julius, AJ, and Ling (*cough* crazy bitch *cough*)

I don’t want to say too much because I would hate to give anything away.

The changes that you see in both Lexi and Twitch weren’t expected, but I freaking loved them.

“My name is Alexa Falco.  And I am not afraid anymore.

Come for us.

I dare you.

I will take you the fuck down.”

I am hoping Molly and Tama get a story.

Hell, who am I kidding.  I want stories of Molly and Tama and the Vegas, LuLu and Zep, Luka and Fernanda.  I just want more!

I’m curious if A.J. Will get a story also.

Cassie's Review
5 Stars

“He would be my remedy. I would be his therapy. Because we were crazy in love.”- Lexi

Holy hell!!! Yes, that’s how I’m starting this review. Raw: Rebirth is everything and more. WE’VE waiting 5 years for this book, and the wait was absolutely worth it. We get everyone’s perspective, and I loved that. It’s not just one sided or two sided, no we get ALL sides. Rebirth is long, and thank goodness it is. We needed this book. I was not disappointed in the least. I want to word vomit, but I can’t. You have to read this book. It sucks you in and then leaves you wanting more.

Lexi, my how she has grown and risen from the ashes. She’s not so innocent or demure, like she was in Raw. She’s grown and a fing mama bear. I love that her character has evolved. But still has her sweet side, if kinda tainted.

“I’d found my religion. Lexi was my bible. And with her mercy, I would be reborn.”- Twitch
The wait is finally over!!!

I leave you with two words...
The belt

*RELEASE BLITZ & DOUBLE REVIEW* Baby (book 3 Laundromat Chronicles) by Angie Merriam

The 3rd Book in the Laundromat Chronicles Series is LIVE!

Hap and Lena are young, in love, and preparing for a baby. Without the help of their family, they try to do what most adults can't do, make their family work.

When they meet Miss Ruby they learn that family isn't always blood and strangers can be so much more. 

AMAZON US / UK / CA / AU

This Novella is by far my favorite out of the previous two. I love Hap and Lena, and their story! 

"I’m just as terrified as you are, but we made this baby out of our love."- Lena 

Turning eighteen, they both have a secret to let out... They're having a baby! But with the secret out, Lena's mom isn't happy and now Lena and Hap are own their own.

Together in their little apartment, they will navigate the new territory of living with the person you love. And on top of that a pregnant hormonal Lena, and thing's are fun! Lol! 

"The laundromat has become our escape and the patrons our friends."- Hap

The laundromat will bring them friends in all different forms. We get more incite into the characters we'll soon meet. I enjoy seeing everything unfold little at a time. And I definitely loved that this was in Hap's (a males) POV. 

This is the third novella in the Laundromat series.  Each novella is about a different character, and is leading up to the novel, Life.

This is Hap and Lena’s backstory.  This is told from Hap’s point of view.  I would love Lena’s point of view also, but it wasn’t in this novella.

They met when they were twelve, and are eighteen now.  High school sweethearts.  But right before they turn eighteen and graduate, Lena gets pregnant.

Hap was supposed to go to college and play football and Lena to art school.  But, an unplanned pregnancy changes everything.

They do love each other.  Hap works so hard.  All their friends are out being normal eighteen year olds. 

They make new friends at the laundromat.

I love Ruby even more after reading this novella.

The end sets up the next novella, Widower.  That is Jace’s story.

Angie Merriam resides in the beautiful Pacific NorthWest and is happily married to her best friend. She and her husband have three wonderful children and two crazy cats.

When she's not writing she loves barbeque's with family and friends, photography, movies, music, and of course reading. She was influenced by the works of Diana Gabaldon, Stephanie Meyer, Nora Roberts and Danielle Steele.

**BLOG TOUR WITH DOUBLE REVIEW** Prick Tease by Misti Murphy

Title: Prick Tease 

Author : Misti Murphy 

Genre : Erotic Romance 

Claire Hadley shouldn’t even be on my radar.

There are a million damn reasons why I shouldn’t touch her. 

Her brothers are my best friends. We grew up together, under the same roof.

I’m supposed to think of her like a little sister.

I won’t break my loyalty for a f*ck. 

Razer Bennington forgot me when he joined the marines. 

One kiss. Seven years. I can’t get the taste of him out of my mouth. 

I’m meant to be the good girl. A virgin. A role model. 

I’m supposed to live up to their expectations.

Screw that… 

I’m going to get what I want. 

I should be careful what I wish for. 

***

Claire Hadley was about to check the perfect fiancé off her checklist. 

Until she found him underneath a hooker. 

Running home to her brother, she doesn’t expect to be rescued by Razer Bennington. 

Seven years ago he left her behind. 

But she hasn’t forgotten their last night together. Or the kiss they shared. 

Tired of living up to the expectations of others, she throws caution to the wind. 

This time she’ll get what she wants. 

Even if getting what she wants could destroy him

Amazon US

Amazon UK

This is the first book by Misti Murphy that I have read.  I will be reading more.  I thought this was a cute story.

Every girl has that one older boy she has a crush on when she’s in her teens.  For Claire, that crush is Razer. 

She has grown up having Razer and her three brothers with her.  Razer is basically her fourth brother.  At least until her sixteenth birthday.  But he takes off then and she doesn’t hear from him for six years!

Claire isn’t that teenager anymore though.  She is now twenty-two.  She’s just had a day, that should be the worst day of her life, but it really isn’t.  It’s actually kind of funny how she handled everything that happened. 

When she sees Razer, all her old feelings come rushing back….she will seduce him! 

And he will fight her. 

This is a cute story on them going from family, to friends, to the one I love but can’t have, to lovers. 

I do want an update on Tom though, does he find out who sent him that surprise in the mail?  

This book starts off with a bang, one that will make you laugh because of the leading females, Claire Hadley's reaction and inner monologue. Running away from the situation is her only option, she just needs to take it in. In doing so, she will run into the last person she ever expected, Razer Bennington. It's been year's since she's laid eye's on him.

Here's the problem for Claire, Razer was just like her brother. She had feels for him, and now they're back. What will be best for them and their family. Do they try to fight the attraction, or do they finally give in?

This is the first book I've read from this author, and I can say it won't be my last. She knows how to give her reader's a sexy story, and that I enjoy. Looking forward to reading more from her.

Misti Murphy is a sadistic b*tch who loves to emotionally torture fictional people. If she did that in real life she’d probably end up in prison or a psych ward so she prefers to create dirty talking alphas and the sexually frustrated women who fall into their beds. And if someone needs to be smacked upside the head before f*cking turns to love then that makes her very happy indeed.

She’s a huge believer in flaws making us human, and that not everyone likes bacon. She’s also addicted to chocolate and scared of the effects of the coming shortage. She swears like a f*cking trooper, and thinks that graphic smuttiness should be as real in fiction as it is in real life.

When she’s not writing she’s the perfect housewife and mother. Ha bloody ha! When she’s not writing she’s hiding in a cupboard with her kindle, scoffing chocolate, and stalking facebook.

**RELEASE BLITZ WITH REVIEWS** Slammer by Tabatha Vargo

Blurb

The last place Christopher Jacobs, aka X, thought he’d find himself was behind bars. Ten years later, the boy he used to be is gone. In his place is the shell of a man with murder under his belt. Any emotion he once had was left under the gavel when he was given life in prison. That is until the new nurse in the infirmary joins the block.

Putting your hands on a prison employee will get you the hole, but some things are worth their punishment, and something tells him Lyla will be worth more than he bargained for.

Lyla Evans isn’t sure about her new job at a maximum security prison, but showing uncertainty and weakness isn’t an option. Taking care of murders and rapist isn’t ideal, but survival is key. She’s warned ahead of time about a prisoner named X, but when she’s attacked, it’s the dangerous X that saves her. Fraternizing with the prisoners is forbidden, but sometimes the most forbidden things are the sweetest.

Holy shit balls Batman!  What did I just read?  And I mean that in the best way possible.  If you want a feel good love story with rainbows, unicorns, hearts, and a happily ever after…this isn’t for you.  If you want a love story that’s forbidden, dirty, raw and an unexpected ending…read this!  This is an amazing read.  You will think one thing, then book, it’s not what you thought at all.

I loved X, Christopher, and Lyla.

Who would have thought Lyla working at a maximum security prison would find the love of her life. 

That love is Christopher.  I’m not going to say anything else because I would hate to give anything away. 

There are some brutal scenes.  There are also some very hot scenes!

The final lines in the last chapter sum this book up great.

“Monsters are real, too.  They didn’t live in our closets or hide under our beds.  They squatted within us – coming out occasionally to destroy the things we loved – coming out to destroy us.”

This is an awesome read that’s full of monsters.

Sometimes you'll come across a story that will leave you gasping and wanting more, and that's exactly what Slammer did.

Slammer by Tabatha Vargo isn't your traditional love story, there is nothing traditional about Lyla and X. Their story is forbidden, dark, sexy and mysterious. These two characters combined are mind blowing.

I've never read a book quite like Slammer. I don't think I've ever read a book that revolves around a prison and an inmate, but dang, I think we will see a lot more coming. I believe Tabitha has opened a new genera, and let the forbidden prison love, flood in.

Right from the very beginning we're given this gut churning mystery about X and why he's in prison. It starts off with a bang and ends in a huge, omg I don't think I can take this, you got to be kidding me, bang!

" She was a drug. She made me high, and I waited every day for another hit of her."- X

One nurse who's trying to keep her head above water, who turns to working in a Maximum Penitentiary gets more than she ever bargained for when the alarm sounds, and X is brought into the infirmary and her life. Everything she has know will forever be changed.

Holy shit, Tabatha! Bravo lady, bravo! I will forever have a fantasy of X and a jail cell. Thank you. This world, it's dirty, gritty, horrible and freaking consuming. It's definitely a 'pick your jaw up off the floor, and sit back and say WTF' kind of book. There were moments my stomach got weak, but there was also moments my panties got wet. If you can do both those in one dang book, you freaking nailed it then.

Get ready to have your world rocked and your jaw to drop. Dive in and see what all the fuss is about.

**NEW RELEASE WITH DOUBLE REVIEW** The Devil's Fire by Rue Volley

Blurb

Seeking refuge, Abigail Watson returns home to mend a broken heart, abandoning the city that she has grown to love and the job she worked hard for years to attain.

Life allows for distraction, but it can't bury the past.

Jack Landon has left an indelible mark on her.

A painful scar, a stolen kiss, a memory of what once was, or could be.

Jack is all of these things, and more. The haunting memories begin to consume her with an unbridled passion.

His domination is absolute. Her submission begs for release.

Their lustful needs could destroy everything around them, turning flame to ash. Friend to enemy, love to hate.

Where there's smoke...you will find the Devil's Fire.

This is the second book in this trilogy.  You must read them in order.  I wish I could give this ten stars.  Rue Volley is a must read author.  She has a way with her writing that just pulls you in and it won’t let you go even after you finish reading.  Her books are unpredictable, just when you think you know what will happen, there’s a twist.  And boy are they always great twists.

Abi, with a little push from her friend/boss, goes back home.  She needs to get herself together.  It’s not simple to move on from Jack though.

Her mom is freaking awesome.  She has “liberated her vagina”.

There is so much going on in this book.  I’m actually having problems getting my thoughts together.  I can’t give anything away.

Abi has some great friends though, Avery and Sam.

Man-bun Brad had me laughing with the bridge scene. 

I want to go skydiving and I want to buy a mask now too!

Victoria and Rose are so crazy, they need to be locked in a room with white padded walls.

Avery, Avery, Avery…”This is Sparta”.  I was dying. 

Jack will have you loving and hating him.

“Love…in all it’s ugly glory.”

“For love is ugly, if It wasn’t, it it were pristine and predictable, then it wouldn’t make you scream.  It wouldn’t force you to give up that part of yourself that only you knew existed. “

“It would never be epic, as it should be.”

“Painfully unforgettable.”

This is a must read trilogy!  Heck Rue could rewrite the phone book and I would read it.  I need the next book NOW!

"Love is a dangerous thing."

When Author Rue Volley gives us a story, she give us an amazing one.

Once again, just like a The Devils Gate, The Devils Fire sucks you in. With every in-depth detail, you'll feel like you're inside this book. Rue gives us just enough, but then BAM, we're left open jawed, shocked, and maybe a few nasty word's spewed.

Abigail Watson has returned to her hometown, there is only so much a woman can take, and New York isn't big enough for both her and Jack. Abi has one thing, try to get over Jack, and try hard she does. But once you're under a Jack Landon's spell, there is no going back. Hell, no man can make you forget him. He's inside you, down to your marrow.

Can Abi move on, forget about Jack and live her life?

There is so much I want to put, but can't. You just have to read this book. So many secrets are revealed, secrets that we had no clue about. There is still this mystery surrounding the Landon's that I'm trying to figure out. I know I'm not even probably close to what's really going on. All the characters that we love are back, and man do I love them. They make this book.

Let me leave you with just a few word's: Mask, skydiving, bejeweled who ha, and The Devils Gate.

CASSIE'S REVIEW

I'm one emotional person right now. Red eyed, tear streaked, snot nosed reviwer. I just ended this book and I had to immediately put pen to paper. Usually I wait a day or two, but I have to get this one out.

"You can be my very own superhero, and I will be your ballerina."- Phoebe

Author Leigh Ann Lunsford, I've been a fan of her since the beginning. I was so excited for Brise, but good Lord, I had no idea what I was in store for.

These two amazing character's, you love them from the very first page, and the tears started to flow immediately. This book literaly grabs ahold of your heart and doesn't ease it's grip till the last word. I was sucked into Luke and Phoebe's world.

Brise is a story about friendship, growing, love, heartache, sadness, getting torn down and rebuilding it all back up. It's a book that has it all! The character's we get to watch them grow, evolve and break.

"No more yesterday's, only tomorrows."- Phoebe 

So many times in this story I cried, laughed and quit breathing. That's what Luke and Twinkle does to you. The character's are so lovable. The story is wrote perfectly, and you can definitely see how much this author has grown.

"I forgot my cape tonight, Twinkle. I didn't save you, but know I will always fight for you."- Luke

Be ready to become a titty baby. Have tissues handy and some wine. Yes, wine, lots. You'll need it. I promise you that


TONYA'S REVIEW

MAKE SURE YOU HAVE TISSUES WITH YOU AT ALL TIMES WHILE READING THIS BOOK!

Okay, now that I have that warning out of the way, I can attempt to write this review.  This review is difficult for me because it won't do justice for this amazing, emotional roller-coaster of a read.  I have read everything that Leigh Ann Lunsford has written.  I have loved every single book.  But this one is her absolute best.  If you want a book that will make you absolutely fall in love with the characters, and completely feel for them and what they are going through, this is the book for you.  I haven't cried like this over a book in a while.  When a book makes you struggle with your own emotions, well, there is nothing better than that.  

Phoebe Wells met Lucas "Luke" Nichols when she was 4 years old and he was 7 years old.  This was her first time with Leukemia.  He knew he had to protect her, even then.  

"You can be my superhero, and I will be your ballerina."

We get to watch these two characters grow up from childhood, through their teenage years, to adult hood.  

"We'll always be Luke and Phoebe.  Two souls destined to be one."

Phoebe beats cancer once.  But that's not her only struggle.  This relationship isn't easy.  These two absolutely, completely love each other, but with everything that happens, is that enough?  They go through more than most people go through in a lifetime.  It's not fair.  Is their love strong enough to survive?  Are they strong enough to survive, either together, or apart?

"Love isn't always pretty, and life is messy.  Sometimes it's a fun messy and other times it is just plain messy."

This book gutted me and it was amazing.  

Thank you Leigh Ann Lunsford for writing such an amazing book.  

  Leigh Ann Lunsford is stay at home mom turned author. She writes Romance/New Adult and loves her happily ever after in all books and movies. She lives with her husband, son, and four dogs in Fleming Island, Florida. When she isn't writing or reading you can find her stuck in front of really bad reality shows or watching Sons of Anarchy. Leigh Ann has a filthy mouth and a huge amount of sarcasm that knows no end. She hopes to give the voices in her head an outlet with many more novels to come.
