Synopsis

Jordyn wasn’t careful with what she wished for.

After making a reckless choice that destroyed her life and the life of her high school sweetheart, Jordyn fled her small town to be a professional mermaid. Being around water suppresses her earth-based magic, something she desperately needs.

Yet Jordyn can't suppress who she really is - a witch.

When she learns that her mother is dying of cancer, she returns home. But it isn’t until people end up dead and everyone points fingers that she realizes her past is coming back to haunt her. Because her ex-boyfriend Zach has been waiting for her. And he hasn’t forgotten how she brought him back to life that night three years ago.

Jordyn will finally have to embrace being a witch to learn the truth. And it will change her life forever.

** I'd Rather be a Witch is a tie-in with How to be a Mermaid. It uses some of the same characters and can be read as a standalone or a complement to it. **

★☆★☆ Wanting Forever ★☆★☆




Sam Waters has always wanted something better than his life in lowly little Duck Creek. But how could he leave Ever, the girl he's protected from an abusive father since they were little? She needs him. Until one explosive night changes everything. And suddenly Sam is on the run, a wanted man.


He lands in Nelson Island, South Carolina--gorgeous, sunny and home of Aston Hopewell, heiress to her father's international conglomerate. Aston has never met anyone like the hot ranch hand. Sam is so driven, so intense. And he gets her like no one else ever has. But even he won't tell her everything.  


Sam has sacrificed everything, and his only reward: betrayal from his brother and Ever back at home. Now he stands at a crossroads with one chance to get it right with the sexiest woman he's ever met...if it's not already too late.

★☆★☆ Ever Always ★☆★☆





Hunter Waters has loved only one woman for his entire life.
Unfortunately she's his brother's girlfriend, Ever Allen. Hunter isn't the kind of guy to betray family, but when his brother Sam has to leave town and asks Hunter to look after her, the feelings he's fought for years can no longer be buried.

Ever can't think of a time when both Waters brothers hadn't been watching her back. Sam's boldness had charmed her, but now Hunter's quiet, steady strength makes her feel safe for the first time in her crazy, messed-up life. But how can she choose between the only two people in the world to have cared about her? How can she live with loving one brother if it means breaking the other's heart?

★☆★☆ Falling Deep ★☆★☆




Reed Hopewell is a lot of things to a lot of people . . .
To his parents, he's the son who needs to get serious. To his friends, he's the player they all want to be. And to his fans, he's the hottest rocker in Charleston. But never has Reed been anyone's hero-until the night he finds Hope.

Hope Dawson can count the number of men she trusts on one hand. Definitely not the guys she goes out with or the stepfather who treats her like property. She'd be out of his house tomorrow if not for the need to protect her little sister. But when things at home go from bad to worse, Hope has to act fast-and Reed is the only person she can turn to . . .

Synopsis:



In Emily you got part of my story. But now in Unexpected you get the rest of it.

True, it doesn't go the way I planned and I don't end up with the man I had planned on. But then again, that's why they say to 'expect the unexpected.'

I have a choice to make...

Do I choose my past? Or do I choose a path that is uncertain?

Only time can tell in the end. I have to choose before feelings are hurt and it's too late, causing me to loose everything I hold dear.

Sincerely,
Emily

Excerpt:
Unexpected (Skipping Stones: Book 2)
Unedited

“May I have this dance?” he asks even as we begin
dancing.

“Of course,” I say as I place my hands on his
shoulders.

After a beat, he pulls me into his body, and I place
my head on his shoulder as we continue to dance.

“God, how I hated this movie,” he whispers against my
forehead.

Giggling, I ask, “Why?”

“Because I remember when you and Conner had first
moved in with each other. I kid you not, nine out of ten times when I stopped
by this damn movie would be on in at least one room of y’alls house.”

“Nuh-uh,” I say as I lift my head.

He winks as he leans down and places a soft kiss on my
lips. A small breath leaves me as I’m frozen to the spot, and I stare him in
eyes. Why did he kiss me?

“Breathe, Emily,” he whispers.

“Why?” I blurt out.

“Why what?” he asks as he tilts his head to the side.

“Kiss me.”

Book Blurb: 

The last thing sixteen-year-old Cassie Foster needs is trouble, but that doesn’t stop him from finding her. 

Nine months after the tragic accident that killed her mother and sister, this high school junior just wants a fresh start. Settling down in the quiet town of New Haven, Maine, she’s found peace at last…until the new resident bad boy, Jackson Matthews, comes into the picture. Arrogant, sarcastic, and devastatingly sexy, he’s the very last thing Cassie wants to entertain. Romance was never part of the plan. But when terrifying circumstances drive these two together, she finds herself in over her head and drawn in by his allure. As local girls begin disappearing, Cassie can’t help but wonder if it’s just a coincidence that everything started when this blue-eyed Casanova strolled into town. Will falling into Jackson’s arms mean she’ll be falling victim to a real lady-killer…or worse? 

The answer will open the door to a world she never thought possible.


Author Bio: Melissa Parkin is a Chicagoland native who feels weird referring to herself in the third person. When she's not binge reading, taking photographs, breaking the first rule of Fight Club, or playing music too loud, she's writing young adult paranormal romances.

Review: The Rocker Who Hates Me by Terri Anne Browning

The Rocker Who Hates Me (The Rocker, #10)The Rocker Who Hates Me by Terri Anne Browning

My rating: 5 of 5 stars




Liam Bryant fell for the beautiful little Italian rocker the moment she crashed into his life. But, he was a junkie and all he ever did was hurt the people who cared about him. So, the only thing he could do was push her away. He realizes no matter how much he tries, he can’t fight the feelings he has for her. He gives in and makes her his, only to lose her repeatedly.

Gabriella Moretti couldn’t help but fall for Liam Bryant the sexy as sinner rocker from Other World. He was a lost soul but something in his eyes and his smile when he showed it told her there was so much more to Liam then he let the world see. She fell for him fast and hard, too bad he didn’t want her like she wanted him. One day he confessed his feelings and Gabriella is elated but her happiness comes to a crashing end when the man she loves lies to her putting her beloved nephew in danger. Heartbroken she cuts him loose leaving them both shattered and alone.

Gabriella figures out too late that she should fight for the man she loves. Now she’s decided to get the man she loves back no matter what it takes she will fight for them even if she is the only one fighting.

I remember reading Reckless with their Hearts, which featured Alexis and Jared by Terri Anne Browning. Alexis had a cousin Gabriella. Gabriella Moretti was the nasty rocker who tried to break up Nik and Emmie from the Rocker Series. So of course, I had an instant dislike for her, but as I read Gabriella and Alexis’ sisterly relationship, I began to see Gabriella through Alexis’ eyes.

Gabriella is a tough chick who has a hard time showing her vulnerability. Except when it comes to one hot rocker Liam Bryant, he holds her heart in his hands and can crush it so easily. Sadly, Gabriella and Liam hurt each other continuously throughout the Rocker Series. I always felt there was so much more to their story, and I was right.

Gabriella is a miss-understood girl whose gruff attitude comes off as bitchy. She risks her life to save her archenemies child and now she is fighting for her life.

Liam pushed Gabriella out of his life more than once but now when he faces the possibly of losing her for good her knows he wants nothing more than to keep her forever.

Gabriella and Liam’s story was the best one of the Rocker Series yet as far as this reader is concerned. I could not put it down. A love story filled with angst, lust, desire, and a love that can’t be broken. Their love was tumultuous, filled with regret and broken promises. Yet it was never broken no matter how much they tried to push each other way.

Told in alternating POV’s from the two main characters the story flowed really well. I loved how the author went back and forth between past and present.

Giving us the back-story of how Gabriella and Liam first met and filling in the blanks from previous books that featured incidents between the couple that made me angry for Gabriella and broke my heart for both of them.

Gabriella and Liam are deep, real characters with real problems that threaten to tear them apart. When they finally come together, it’s explosive and thrilling yet sweet and tender at the same time. This couple’s love is undying even when they don’t know how the other really feels.
I loved how everyone rally's around Liam as he sits vigil by Gabriella's side while she fights for her life. These character's are family and they hold each other up its one of the things I love about the series the most.

Terri Anne Browning is one of my favorite authors, the Rocker Series is one of my favorites, and this book did not disappoint. A must read for fans of the series, and as always I highly recommend the entire series. I will be moving on to The Rocker Who Betrayed Me next Zander and Annabelle’s story.
