Review: Pieces of Eight

Pieces of Eight Pieces of Eight by Whitney Barbetti
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Excuse me while I clear all the tissues off my computer desk! 😭😭😭

This book had all my emotions running wild! I love Mira! I was still on the fence about Six. I said with the last book (Six Feet Under) that I thought having his POV some would have been helpful. And at times I am sure that it would have. But after reading this book I totally get why it was all one sided. It worked better that way. If you read the first one (and I am sure you have) you know that this picks up right after she pushed him out of her life. This part of the story is about her journey to finding herself! To working her way toward loving herself. I am so in love with this story! I have known people with mental illness. I have known drug addicts and alcoholics. They are absolutely difficult to love! The connection these 2 have is just astounding! This story is not pretty. Its not something that would be for everyone. But I think that everyone who has any relationship with people who suffer freom depression, bipolar, addicts.... should read this book. It was very wonderfully written. Where I had a hard time getting through the first book because of the things it was making me feel, this one had me not wanting to put it down at all! I wanted to read about their interactions! I wanted to know what they would say to each other and the hurt they would inflict on one another. It was so fantastic and made me cry like mad crazy! Great book. I think I have found a new author to add to my "FLOVE" collection!!!

  Timeless by Kaylene Winter          4.75 🌟  4 🔥 Absolutely LOVE this series!! And I am not sure if I am ready for the Encore books yet..... but I will get into them soon! This is a childhood friends to lovers story that spans decades. Both Fiona and Zane have a lot of family issues to sort through on their own and they have always been a huge support for each other.... the one thing that was always solid. Until her mom took her away claiming that Zane was going to be just like his father. These 2 go through so much to be together that I was feeling gutted through out the entire book! And I was constantly getting mad at the different obstacles that kept blocking them from their happily ever after! And when they are together..... they are HOT 🔥🔥🔥. The only thing that I was unhappy about with this book was ..... DAMMIT! When can we find out if Carter and Lianne get back together FOR GOOD?!?!?

                                                                               Stealing Heats by Lex Martin     4.25🌟 4🔥      This book was JUST what I needed!  It was hot, fast-paced, a bit of suspense, and a woman-you-love-to-hate!  Brother's best friend, but with the added angst that the brother died Rhett wants to save his family's ranch and the only way he can get a loan is to be married.  Paige needs to rehab an injury, but has no insurance to do it.  So win/win.  And then they go and let feelings get involved.  But with the way that Paige seamlessly fits right into his family with all his brothers, there was no way that feelings wouldn't come about.... not to mention the history and Paige's ch...

  Promise Me Not by Meagan Brandy          5🌟 2🔥 Definitely worth the wait! This was a SUPER SLOW BURN book! So if you are looking for spice, it isn't here!  But if you are looking for a heart felt, gut wrenching tale of love lost, then found again.... you are in the right place!  Mason was such a hot AF super alpha and was ready to take charge right away.  He knew he wanted it all and he wanted it with Payton!  Chase was sticking his meddling nose in where it didn't belong (AGAIN) and I was ready to figure out how to jump into the book just to punch him in the face!  But then look at him trying to redeem himself!  We shall see!  This story must have been a tough one for Meagan to tell.... they guilt and pain that Payton feels through out the whole book, over EVERYTHING and EVERYONE that she really has contact with.  But most of all the guilt about Deaton (the decease father of her son), Little D(eaton) and Mason. I...
