Delirium by Lauren Oliver
I really enjoyed Delirium! It was a romantic dystopian novel, about love, loss and finding ones self. I thought it was a novel Idea to use love as the catalyst for this society. I liked Lena and felt for her as she struggles to figure out what she feels, what she wants, whats real and what she is told is real. The man who tries to captivate her heart, what a guy and the lengths that he goes to do so!Her family drove me crazy! This story made me reflect on how fortunate we are to love and be loved!:)


F word 3 times, otherwise not many other language issues
sexual tension, one inappropriate situation but nothing happens. not for my teen.


Beastly by Alex Flinn
I was pleasantly surprised at how well I liked this retailing of Beauty and the Beast. It was fun to have it modernized. It was a fun quick read and enjoyable! I really fell for the beast too! My heart went out to him when he had to make some tough decisions. This is one of those stories that helps remind you to not judge others lest you be judged or walk a mile in their shoes first.




maybe two swear words
I wouldn't let my teenage read this,is not a clean romance for that age.



Nevermore by Kelly Creagh
WOW! I don't know were to begin, this book was so amazing, and so well written! Once I started I could hardly put it down I stayed up until 1:30 last night to finish it. I think one of the things I really liked about this book was it had the right amount of everything, it was so beautifully crafted and the ideas are fresh and entertaining. Oh, Varen! He is amazing, dark and mysterious, smart, handsome, I was amazed how he could say nothing, and still draw me in, he was so romantic in little ways, the kind of ways that we girls hold onto. Isobel, she is passionate about life and helping Varen, she had me rooting for her through all her challenges. I am not a big Poe fan but I think this story changed my mind. I liked how Poe's life and works were integrated into this story. What an amazing love story this is. I like the slow romantic build up and like others I wanted more, at the same time I can really appreciate the pace it is taking I think it helps make what they have more authentic/ realistic/ full of substance ( I will hope it stays clean romance). I think for me this has been my favorite read thus far this year. It is definitely a must read, so if you haven't read it yet go, go , go get it!! And enjoy Nevermore!
Thank goodness there are two more books to come, I can hardly wait!


Clean romance
very few language issues


Dark Heart Forever by Lee Monroe
I don't know what to make of this book. Sometimes I liked it and sometimes I didn't. The story was good, predictable but I didn't really mind that so much. I think it has to do somewhat with one of the hero's he is this immortal that's not all gorgeous. I know pathetic but I wanted him to be you know amazing like all the other heroes are in my book and mind. As the book evolves so does he change physically not sure how I guess its all in the eyes of the beholder. In the relationships,one specific Jane makes decisions that don't necessarily match her personality! The ending was good though and leaves room for the sequel.
some mild language
couple of situations nothing happens but not so clean a romance



Born for Thorton's Sake by Marcia Lynn McClure
I really Loved this book, I am constantly drawn back to it over and over I have read it 4 times and I know I will read it yet again. Maria and Brock are just wonderful I so enjoyed their story. I love how Marcia writes all her stories they are just great what a talent! I Love them all!

Just read this again! I love it! some people have comfort food, I think this is my comfort book!
Just finished it again and still love it! Aaaaaahhhhhh!



Wow! Really well done! I had a hard start with this book first 20 pgs, but WOW after that the pages just flew by. The story is interesting and full of intrigue, mystery and romance. I totally fell in love with the characters, Amelia, Zora, Thomas, and Nathaniel (he is to swoon for). A wonderful read!
Clean romance
no language issues


The first time I read this book it was called the Ramshackled Knight I love that title, and this book. This book is so good has so much heart. Lord Cavratt is amazing and chivalrous, and Catherine is amazing and strong. Her uncle is terrible, and to think that there are people like him in the world UGH!makes me so frustrated. Really a great story!
