“Where Lightning Strikes” Book Review/ Giveaway*

March 24, 2016 / 0 comments

Liezel’s Thoughts:
I found it the hard way that reading Victoria Ashley’s “Royal Savage” followed by Nicole Williams’ “Collared” and THEN A. L. Jackson’s “Where Lightning Strikes” was NOT one of my best ideas because reading these 3 stories back to back left me very much tormented and emotionally drained. Most especially this one.
This book focuses on Tamar King and Lyrik West whom we’ve met in the previous book. If you remember from back then, Tamar …

Angie’s Thoughts:
4 hours… That’s how long it took for this book to completely break my heart, not break… shatter my heart. Every word took a piece of me with it. Every paragraph sliced through my heart with such precision like a surgeon’s knife. …

“Love In The Light” Book Review

January 14, 2016 / 0 comments

Liezel’s Thoughts:
It’s been years since I’ve read “Hearts In Darkness” yet ’til this day I remember every single detail about that magnificent couple. There is just no way one could easily forget the chemistry Makenna and Caden established considering how they met. I do have to admit however that I found the ending of the first book disappointing. This is because I felt like that there was so more story to tell. This is the …

“Marley” Book Review

November 16, 2015 / 0 comments

Liezel’s Thoughts:
I thought I had already shed every tear that I possibly could over this series yet even knowing how it all ends I couldn’t stop my emotions getting the best of me all over again. This is just how moving the series was.
A little background about the book… “Marley” is a companion novel to Carnage 1 & 2 and is not meant to be read as a standalone and I would not recommend reading …

“Beyond These Walls” Book Review/ Giveaway**

May 7, 2015 / 0 comments

Liezel’s Thoughts:
Of all the fictional couples that I’ve come across so far this year, it was this couple – Jude and Lailah who I wanted most to get their HEA. If you’ve read the “Within These Walls” you know why I say this. They have been through hell and back and in all things these two deserved their happiness more than anyone else.
In the first part of the story they get just that. We find …

“The Five Stages of Falling in Love” Book Review

April 14, 2015 / 2 comments

Liezel’s Thoughts:
“The Five Stages of Falling in Love” is one of those stories that I recommend you take in small doses or read in a couple sittings if you will. To avoid embarrassment, I would also suggest reading it in the confines of your own home because there is no doubt in my mind that you will be a blubbering mess like I was.
“The Five Stages of Falling in Love,time hold” tells a story of an amazing …

Liezel’s Thoughts:
Good grief, that was one helluva roller coaster ride! “Pocketful Of Sand” built me up, broke me down, shook me to my very core and brought me right back up again. It was one crazy ride….but you know what? I wouldn’t change a thing about it. Every single moment for me was absolutely fantastic!
“Pocketful Of Sand” is about a young woman who was on the run. Eden consistently had to move to maintain her and her …

Bright Side Book Review

February 3, 2015 / 10 comments

Liezel’s Thoughts:
If you’ve noticed 5+ star ratings are pretty far and in between on this blog. After reading “Bright Side” however there wasn’t any question why it needed to be added to that very short list.
I do have to admit however that it was very difficult for me to get into. The first third of the book was one long and boring introduction and at times I thought of giving up and reattempting to read it at a …

Within These Walls Book Tour Review

August 19, 2014 / 0 comments

Liezel’s Thoughts:

I’m one of those readers that normally breezes right through a book without hesitation. However, with “Within These Walls” I had to pace myself throughout every single chapter . Having some experience with both Lailah and Jude’s predicament there was just no other way for me to get through this one without taking it in tiny doses.
The amount of detail that J.L. Berg put into this book just made the entire thing heartrending. I can not even begin to tell …

Playing Patience Book Review

June 4, 2014 / 19 comments

Liezel’s Thoughts:

At first glance you would never think that Zeke and Patience would not have a thing in common. They grew up on the total opposites of the spectrum. Patience resides with her affluent family in one of the wealthiest neighborhoods while Zeke lived in a bad part of town in a trailer park with an alcoholic father. What you don’t expect is, despite their contrasting upbringings they are very much alike. Everyday they silently suffered in misery and fear due to the abuse by the mere people who …
