«REVIEW» The Violet Hour by Andrea L Wells

Review of The Violet Hour by Andrea L Wells



Still shocked over her mother’s mysterious death, California socialite Logan Keller is handed a one-way ticket to her long lost roots in Wyoming where love, deceit and danger await. Though she could forget everything staring into Luke Callahan’s eyes, Logan is quickly thrust into a fight for survival. Taking fate into her own hands, she begins unraveling the dangerous deceptions that abound at every turn. Her father is keeping secrets and Luke is keeping more. But Logan is keeping the biggest secret of them all.
The Violet Hour is a page-turning captivating twist of young romance and the paranormal. 







This picture I took makes me think of Logan and the pack.

Captivating, alluring, mysterious. That sums up The Violet Hour.

I haven't read a paranormal/ werewolf book in year's, but this book drew me in. The overall storyline is amazing. The author takes you on this journey. I absolutely adore all the characters, besides two. Brody and Linds. Those two, man. 

Logan is reeling from the loss of her mother. One minute her life is everything a girl could want. The next she's shipped to Wyoming, to live with her father and stepmother. She never knew that the moment her mother passed, something she could never imagine would come to life. 

Luke. He will help her, befriend her and is the one person who knows what she's going through. But he's keeping a secret, they all are. One that Logan will soon know about. But what she learns, she would never have imagined. Those things are only in books, right? With this revelation, will come another one. One that Logan isn't ready for. Her life will be forever changed.




First off, there is author's you interact with that you just know are sweet and kind. Andrea is one of those. I can't wait to see what this book world has in store for her, because of believe it's going to be amazing things.

I can't wait for the next book. To see where Logan goes, how she copes with everything. I couldn't put this book down. The author writes brilliantly and has you where you feel like you're in the story, right along with these characters. It's an unique storyline. I didn't know what was coming, and new things pop up. It keeps you interested the whole way through. READY FOR THE NEXT BOOK, PLEASE!

* REVIEW of Resenting Me *


* Review of Resenting Me (Breakneck #2.5) by 
Crystal Spears *



Title: Resenting Me (Breakneck #2.5)  Author: Crystal Spears
Release Date: 8/21/14 Series: Yes





A love that wouldn't be


I am gutted, sad, heartbroken and in need of a washcloth to wash the tear streaked mascara off my face.

We got a little peek of Lana and Pyro in Seize Me, but in Resenting me, we get their story. It's a story of a forbidden love, one that would never get to happen. Their love story is a beautiful tragedy. One that ends in the most heartbreaking lost.

Lana and Pyro's short lived love affair was a roller coaster of ups and downs. Wanting, pushing and pulling. They gravitated towards one another. She wanted to let him in, but she was scared to. In the lifestyle he lived, she could lose him. So, she would love him from afar, only to save her heart.

"I don't want you to ever leave, flower."- Pyro

For the few short months that His Flower was in his life, she brought light into it. Into the dark world he lived in. She captivated him by her beauty and wanted her with everything he had, but she wouldn't let him get close.

She resented herself and maybe even him for all the pain that was brought into her friend, Winter. It's because of her infatuation with Pyro that Winter was hurt. One more reason to try to stay away from him.

"If you were mine, I'd be yours, Lana, and no one else's."- Pyro

But no matter what, they kept gravitating towards one another. She loved him, but she only got to say those words when it was a little too late... While he held her in his arms, as she gasped for her very last breaths.

"Always... Always feel, Stefan."- Lana




Starting off this story I was already sad, because I knew what would be the outcome. Getting to read about the times they were together, when we only got to imagine them from the previous books, I loved that. I wanted they're story so bad. Sometimes in life, people don't get to find their true love, but she did, even if it was too late for her. This novella gutted me, it really did. I wish the outcome could be different, but it can't. I cringed while reading both their sided at the end, and balled. I'm so glad that Crystal Spears went back to the gritty, dirty and dark side of her writing. As well as being back and writing all together. I loved the back and forth between Pyro and Lana. They would fight one minute, laugh the next, they're complicated. Us readers got what we wanted, their story. Thank you, Crystal.
