Book Summary from Goodreads:
Release Date: July 1st, 2013

No one would suspect shy, Lily Calloway’s biggest secret. While everyone is dancing at college bars, Lily stays in the bathroom. To get laid. Her compulsion leads her to one-night stands, steamy hookups and events she shamefully regrets. The only person who knows her secret happens to have one of his own.

Loren Hale’s best friend is his bottle of bourbon. Lily comes at a close second. For three years, they’ve pretended to be in a real relationship, hiding their addictions from their families. They’ve mastered the art of concealing flasks and random guys that filter in and out of their apartment.

 

But when they go on a family boat trip, surrounded by open seas and limited male bodies in sight, Lily’s confronted with a big fear. Only one guy onboard can fill her addiction, and she’s sworn off going there with Loren Hale ever again.

 

Now the only person who can truly help her, can barely help himself.

**This is a New Adult book recommended for readers 18 and up**

 

The Teaser:

 

My mouth falls. "Oh, you are…" I find a pillow on the nearby chair and start assaulting him with it. I get two good hits in before he swoops his arms around my waist and pulls me on his lap.

"Lo," I warn. He’s been teasing me all day, making it harder than normal to withstand him.

Blog Tour: Neverland by Kailin Gow

 

 

Never Land (Never Knights #2) by Kailin GowExpected pub: 9/24/2012

Welcome to Never Land, the land of Never and the world of rock, the world of new experiences and sensations, a world where music runs through the veins of the dedicated, and love is taken and given with consequences. Never (Neve) Knight, the lead singer and manager of a band filled with the hottest guys in rock finally gets the dream that she wanted: a label signing her band The Never Knights. It is what she always wanted, a band of her own and playing her own kind of music. Getting her band to where it was came at a high price, including giving up the man who makes her heart race and her blood pound, the man who caused her to nearly lose her band. As she gets ready to go on her world tour, fate brings her close to Danny Blue again, and she's not sure if she can give him up a second time even if it means losing the band.

 

YA-Mature/New Adult

My Review:

Neverland starts off one month after Never Say Never ends with the Never Knights opening for My Bloody Valentine in London and even though the Never Knights are playing together, nothing is the same as it was before.  There is still a lot of tension between the group because of Danny and Neve’s relationship and Danny is no longer part of the band. 

After their performance in London, things take a turn for the worse with Geoff and it forces everyone to cool down on the personal feelings and reconsider what is the best for the band. 

Neve is still the same girl that we met in Never Say Never; she’s still trying to step out of her father’s shadow and she’s trying to compete with Danny’s old girlfriend who passed away in a car accident.  I really liked Danny in the first book, but in this book every time Neve was getting comfortable with him something else would pop up. I really, really like Luc, he’s sweet and he honestly cares about Neve, I actually think that Neve would be a lot better off with him than with Danny. 

For me Neverland was a quick, fast-paced read that I finished in one sitting. Kailin Gow knows how to keep a readers attention from the beginning until the end.  While I really liked Neve throughout ninety nine percent of the book, I didn’t like the way that she handled everything at the end of this book with Danny and Luc. 

I can’t wait to see what’s in store for the Never Knights in the next book; Never Ending that comes out in January 2013.

Blog Tour: Guardian of the Moon Pendant by Laura J. Williams

Welcome to my stop on the Guardian of the Moon Pendant blog tour.  I'll be sharing an excerpt from the book and there is also a giveaway for you to enter.  5 lucky winners will win a signed copy of Guardian of the Moon Pendant.  This giveaway is US only.

 

                             Book Summary from Goodreads:

 

The MacAlpin women are of a fierce clan, born from a rare bloodline that harbors a dark and powerful secret – a mystical heirloom called the Moon Pendant. It is the key to controlling the MääGord standing stones, a magical Portal into the Otherworld, the realm of the Fae.

Anabel and Izzy MacAlpin are two sisters, polar opposites, living separate lives.

Anabel’s life is going precisely according to her plan, a ring on her finger from her steady beau, Edgar, and medical school in the fall.

Izzy’s life is filled with scars and wounds from her past. Dubbed the “spare child” by her family and treated poorly, she rebelled, and now lives life by her own rules.

These two sisters’ worlds are about to explode when one of them must go to Scotland and fulfill her duty as the Guardian of the Moon Pendant, by recharging this magical heirloom with four elementals, air, earth, water, and fire, and then finally close the Portal.

There’s only one problem…

The Baobhan Sith – a vampiric faery who lures men in with her hypnotic voice, feeding on their blood or transforming them into Màrmann, her zombie-like warriors who do her bidding – desires the Moon Pendant to take control over the Portal, opening a gateway into the realm of man, helping her to seek revenge on the MacAlpin clan, and to quench her eternal thirst for human blood.

Anabel finds herself torn between a sinfully handsome Scottish warrior, Blane and her fiancée, Edgar. Izzy finds herself, angered by her sister’s lack of faith in her.

Both sisters are forced to help one another, but may end up killing each other in the end. Surrounded by an array of good and evil Scottish Fae like a vampiric faery, the Baobhan Sith, zombie-warriors, the Ankou, Dryads, the Fachan, the Ghillie Dhu, Heather Pixies, Leigheas, the Nuckelavee, the Bloody Baron a Red Cap, Stone Faeries, Trows, and Will-o’-the-wisps.

Will these two sisters put aside their differences before the final task to charge the Moon Pendant and close the Portal or will the Baobhan Sith, the vampiric faery, be successful and open the Portal into the Otherworld?

 

The Excerpt:

 That’s when I saw him, the Ankou, a collector of bodies, the man they call death, cloaked in darkness, standing beside a smoldering motorcycle, his sidecar a coffin made of bones. A skeleton of a mangy dog sat obediently, wagging its scrawny tail inside the sidecar, a black tongue lapping out of its mouth, panting hard, its fur patched randomly about his body, exposing its shriveled skeletal frame.

The Ankou’s eyes were sullen, black, and fixed onto me. “I’m just here for the body,” he stated in a low raspy voice, tapping the base of his scythe on the soft ground, holding it like a sword in his withered hand. “The spirit’s not my jurisdiction.”
