Coming Summer of 2015!

Fractured Energy (The Energy Series, #3) When Cassondra took Wilma’s energy, Lena’s mission changed. Only revenge matters now. For the past year, Lena and her small army have tried to finish what they started, beginning with Earth: close the lines between worlds and end Exemplar's hold on humanity. Unfortunately, the task is daunting. But unlike before, Lena has no problem pulling the trigger. As soon as her army takes care of threats in Earth, Lena goes back to Arcus—only to find out where the next war will be. Tarek will do anything to mend Lena's heart, even while she pushes him away. Only death for a death seems to ease the pain tearing her apart. But as much as he desires to heal the woman he loves, Tarek has to make sure Arcus stays safe from extermination. After an attack, refugees Tarek has sworn to protect are terrified Exemplian authority will destroy their new home. Not able to defeat Exemplar's direct assault, only one solution remains—a solution that will more than likely end in catastrophe: take the war to Exemplar and shut down their power source. Lena doesn't see disaster for her army—she sees victory and demands to go, refusing to miss a chance to kill more Exemplians. While Lena hopes to save Wilma's energy during the impossible mission, Tarek fears Lena will lose more than the war. If she fails, Lena may lose herself completely. GOODREADS

*~* Review *~*

I dont read many young adult fiction books but really enjoyed this one. Mary does a great job in grabbing your attention and holding it. On to my character review....

Edie is a very smart, and loyal daughter that is always the new girl. She loves her mom so much that she will follow her anywhere she goes to keep them both safe. Anytime she gets close to anyone they end up moving again. She misses having a real friendship, boyfriend anything that resembles a relationship period. She has no family close and an aunt is Ireland so she is quite lonely. They are always running from their past that always seems to find them no matter where they go. Will they ever find a safe place?

There are many characters in this book that I can speak about but I will just touch on a few. Jermaine is the outcast of the school, Imogen is the shy odd one, and most of the other girls are either bullies or just rude as hell.. lol Imogen was the first to welcome her to her new school and Edie notices right off that this girl is just not her type of friend. Then she runs into the "Mean" girls" or should I say they run into her?!! Ugh After making it through her first day she just doesn't know where it will lead. New School, New City, New Country, New People etc.. She just doesn't know what to think yet. Jermaine well I'll let you find out for yourself about this lil sweetheart..

This story was very real in many ways. Between the bullying, loss, abuse and relationships, this story is quite riveting. Since You've Been Gone will keep your interest and you wont want to put it down!! I would like to read more of her work.. Five stars have been granted :)

Author: R.E. Blake

Series: Less Than Nothing 

Genre: Contemporary, New Adult 

Also posted on: Natalie :) 

*~* Synopsis *~*

Sage’s life as a teenage runaway in San Francisco is simple: Snatch a few hours of sleep on park benches and bus stops; dodge perverts, predators, and cops; and make enough as a street musician to eat. But her world flips upside down when she meets Derek – hot, tattooed, and charming, a singer from Seattle whose looks and talent take her breath away.

What begins as a reluctant partnership quickly develops into a cross-country race against time - and awakens a hunger in Sage that’s unfamiliar and exciting.

As they travel from coast to coast, Sage and Derek pursue their dream, only to discover that they can never run far enough to escape the demons from their pasts.

Less Than Nothing is the breakout debut NA novel from USA Today bestseller R.E. Blake that critics are buzzing about and readers can’t put down. Sage & Derek's story continues in More Than Anything (book 2) and Best of Everything (book 3).

*~* My Review *~*

Wow this book was awesome. 

Sage was such a strong character as a teenage female street performer. I really loved he attitude and her strength. She really makes you proud of her and envious of her ability to deal what life's handed her. Most of us couldn't handle living on the street and hustling to eat everyday. 

Melody is Sages only friend and freakin hilarious. She really helped Sage in so many ways and comedy relief helped us all. Lol

Derek is the sexy male character in this book. He is also a street performer yet so brave, sexy and talented. If it wasn't for him Sage may be right where he found her. 

This book was definitely different from my norm. That being said I really enjoyed this book and can not wait til the next one. Five stars have been granted :)

*~* Synopsis *~*

The guy she wants…

Growing up on the coast of Maine with a revolving door of foster siblings, Caitlyn Michaud spent one intense and passionate year falling in love with her foster brother, Heath. Then he left without a word. The betrayal devastated Caitlyn and made her vow to forget the compelling bad boy. But forgetting his sensual touch and their deep all-consuming friendship is easier said than done.

Isn’t the guy she needs…

Determined to move on, in college Caitlyn has risen above her small town impoverished roots and has joined a sorority, reinvented her appearance, and landed the right boyfriend. Pre-law major and frat president, Ethan, is thoughtful and always laughing, and he makes her feel happy, calm. He also gives her the social acceptance she craves.

But the perfect world she tried so hard to attain is ripped apart when Heath appears one night out of nowhere. Caitlyn remembers all the reasons why she loves him, even if they don’t make sense to anyone but her. Out of the military, Heath is as brooding and intense as ever, and he is determined not only to win her back, but to exact revenge on everyone who kept him from her…

And when one love allows her to breathe, but the other feels as essential to her life as air, how does she choose between them?

*~* Review *~*

I really liked this book. I love the push and pull in the relationships.

Caitlyn thought she had it all figured out until everything changed. Cat is that annoying girl that can't make up her mind. I liked her because she wanted everyone to be happy and would sacrifice her own happiness to do that.

Ethan was a cool guy but he made me mad at times too. I liked that he was sweet on Cat and treated her well.

Heath, well he's my favorite. I'm sure he will be yours too. I loved him because he was so intense and loving. He would do anything for Cat and did. His main goal in life is to be with her and make her happy.

*~* Synopsis *~*

This summer, I’d planned to celebrate my eighteenth birthday in Europe with my fellow Manhattanites—Taddy Brill, Blake Morgan, and Vive Farnworth—until I caught my boyfriend screwing my mother. According to the police report, this vomit-inducing incident happened around the same time I’d supposedly blown-up my mother’s penthouse. Like I’m walking around Soho with a stick of dynamite in my Louis Vuitton purse—not! Now, my besties and I are in jail.

Officer Ford Gotti, the Harley-wheelin’ biker cop who arrested us, keeps sticking his perfectly-sculpted nose into my case. His inked body is jacked like a superhero, and he says I can trust him. He wants me to fess up. I won’t. Not again. Why should I? My friends and I had a previous stint in juvie that nearly destroyed us. I gotta protect them and keep my mouth shut. Right? —Lex Easton, women’s studies major, motorcycle enthusiast, and virgin.

The Undergrad Years is a New Adult contemporary miniseries about first loves, independence, and everlasting friendships.

*~* Review *~*

OMG!!! Avery latches on and doesn't let go with her amazing writing. This book like her others are hilarious, sassy, sexy, sopping wet, and exciting.

I loved lex because she's so funny and her sexual imagination for a virgin is amazing.

Her friends Vive and Taddy are great. True best friends but make you wanna slap them sometimes. Vive really made me dislike her in this book. Taddy on the other hand I enjoyed. She cracks me up and really pulls the girls together.

Blake is so lovely. Don't we all just want a GBF? (gay best friend) I know I do. Lol I adore Blake because he really pulled through for Lex when no one else did. Not even her BFF and VBF.

I loved this book. Seriously you should all read Avery's work. She is a great author and truly rocks your socks off. Her books are all rich bitch HAWT!!! Who doesn't want HAWTNESS??!! Five stars and a fuck it bucket have been granted ;)
