Something in the Way by Jessica Hawkins

 

Something in the Way by Jessica Hawkins
book 1 in the Something in the Way series
4 🌟

This book was a little slow moving at some points, but considering it is the first of 4 books that was to be expected.

The book starts in 1993, Lake is only 16 and she meets Manning, who is 23. In comes Tiffany, Lake's 19 year old sister. Not gonna lie, I don't like her much. But her character serves a purpose, so she is tolerable. There is some kind of pull with Lake and Manning, but given that she is a minor and the age difference, they cant be together. There is NO spice in this book..... but quite a bit of tension and angst. I like Lake and Manning..... so I am looking forward to seeing what more happens.

It ends on a semi-cliffy. So now I am off to read the next book!

  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?!?!?

Crashing Waves by Kelsey Kingsley

  Crashing Waves by Kelsey Kingsley book 1 in the Crashing Waves Duology   🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Damn y'all.... I was NOT prepared for this book! I went in totally blind to this ARC read.  And when I tell you, I cried so hard!  I had to wear an eye pack to bed!  I am NOT EXAGGERATING!!!   The trauma that Max goes through is just unthinkable!  This book is all from the male POV of Maxwell.  The story starts when he is young.  Being "raised" by parents that should NOT have had children.  His mother is very neglectful (likely due to a severe mental illness) and his father just treats him like shit.  But Maxwell makes some friends and gets through school.  Then enters the military, where he excels!  But that is when he thinks things are all going well...... his life starts to fall apart. Every time things seem to start going well for him, he gets kicked down again. No I will say that this book kind of ends on a cliffhanger....
