When Ana revealed her suspicions to Jackson about the circumstances surrounding his father’s death, she never expected it to be the catalyst for a series of events that could change everything. It was supposed to save him, not push him away. But now Ana is left watching the person she loves more than anything, lose himself to vengeance.
Jackson has spent most of his life loyal to the man he calls Uncle. But since learning that Marcus Donohue might have been responsible for the death of his father, Jackson is consumed with the need for revenge. Even if it means hurting the people he loves, and going against everything he believes in, to uncover what happened.
Will the truth finally set Jackson free or will it ruin his last chance at happiness with Ana… and a life out from under the shadows of the Donohues?
Tribulations will be overcome, truths will be revealed. Welcome to Chastity Falls.

 photo Excerpt_zpsa5htxexx.jpg“It’s my best shot. Only one of us is walking away from this and right now my upper hand is that Marcus thinks it will be him.”
Dennis stepped off the cage and blew out a long breath. “She doesn’t know, does she?”
“No. It’s for the best. Ana thinks we’re planning how we move forward on this together.”
Over the last couple of weeks, the pieces of the puzzle had slowly been slotting into place, and more and more I was realizing it was something set into motion a long time ago.
“If shit goes south, I need to know you’ll protect her. Even if it means getting her out of Chastity Falls. She’d never leave if I asked her to, she’s stubborn and she thinks we’re in this together.”
I hated lying to Ana, but it was better for her to draw her own conclusions than for me to admit that only one of us could walk away from this—Marcus or me. It would crush her. I couldn’t do it to her. To us.
“You know I will, but does it have to go down like this?” Dennis’ Adam’s apple bobbed and the desperation in his voice caught me off guard. “Is there no other way? Maybe we could go to someone for help?”
Scrubbing a hand through my hair I leaned back against the lockers and said, “This is the only way. We both know it. This is exactly the way Marcus planned it.”
The door swung open and the rest of the team filed in. I threw Dennis a look that I hope conveyed my gratitude.
I owed him my life.
I just hoped I didn’t have to pay up.

New Point by Olivia Luck

(Image found on Goodreads)
"Yes, he's that hot." -Olivia Luck, New Point



Zoe has been the center of media attention for far too long. Especially when she just wants to forget. In an attempt to change her life for the better, she moves down to New Point, a town her parents enjoyed. When she bumps into Miles, everything seems to be getting much better. But when her past comes out will she be able to move on? Or will it hold her back forever? Find the official description on Goodreads.

New Point, for the most part, was actually a lighter read than books I've been reading sometimes recently. Many of the interactions between Zoe and Miles are light, carefree, with a little bit of flirting. It's fun. They act like children or at least with the carefreeness of children and that was fun to witness, and it kept things from feeling as if they were too much to handle.

The prologue was short and mysterious. Which really grabbed my attention. It made me want to read more to find out about what happened to Zoe.

Throughout New Point, we get little glimpses of Zoe's past before getting the big picture. There's enough there to guess what Zoe went through and be proud of how strong she's been. It's definitely not a pretty story and this made me appreciate the lightness that Zoe seemed to have with Miles especially.

The plot moved along nicely, although sometimes you might think it was crawling. In reality it was just setting things up to bring up the drama.

I definitely think New Point was a great read. It was lighthearted, and fun for the most part with enough downs to put things into perspective. If you haven't already, you should buy New Point. It was released on September 10th, 2014.

The Harder I Fall by Jessica Gibson

(Image found on Goodreads)
"They say that time heals all wounds. I’m not sure I believe that. I
think some wounds go too deep, and they fester." -Jessica Gibson, The Harder I Fall

Becca Langer has had a difficult life. After her father is sent to jail, she must take care of her mother and younger brother. But she's determined to go to college and be able to support her brother even better. Dance is the only thing that she's let her indulge in. Enter Levi. He's the distraction that Becca can't avoid. But will Levi be strong enough and stubborn enough to break through Becca's walls? Find the official description on Goodreads.

Let me just say that wow, Becca really hasn't had an easy life. Definitely puts things into perspective for me. I really felt that Becca was real and I found myself feeling proud because she's doing her best with a terrible situation. Then there was Levi. I didn't connect with him as much and there were several times I'd love nothing better than to smack him. But still, he came around.

Then there's the fact that Becca has suffered from being labelled her entire life. And it's not necessarily all about her actions but those of her parents. It was different to see this and it definitely gives readers food for thoughts.

The only thing that I had against The Harder I Fall is that I felt as the book was almost speeding through much of that time, taking occasional breaks to slow down. But other than that, The Harder I Fall was a brilliant read and I'm glad that I was able to read it.

Reho by D.L. Denham

(Image found on Goodreads)
"Reho wondered if there was somewhere he could escape, somewhere to start over." -D.L. Denham, Reho

Earth has been almost destroyed and invaded, the former mostly done by humans and nuclear war, the latter done by an alien race referred to as the Hegemon. Reho is a little bit different from the rest of humanity, even with all of their deformities from the radiation. When he gets the chance to sail away, he takes it and soon finds himself tangled in a web even more complex than he had thought. But there's only one question. Will he make it out alive? Find the official description on Goodreads.

Throughout Reho, we get the past and necessary information when it's needed. And it isn't told in a way that makes it seem as if it's the author trying to find a way to convey this information while staying in character. Instead it's done in a storytelling way by one of the characters or when Reho goes on a mental ramble. The information feels as if it's naturally coming to us and not just because we need it. I enjoyed that aspect of Reho. It was very well done.

Oh, and the writing was very attention grabbing. I was debating on whether I would read and review Reho but when I read the first few pages, I had to keep reading or else I would have been driving myself to madness wondering what was going on. It grabbed my attention and it held it for the most part throughout the book.

The future Earth and everything about it including the invading aliens were all imaginatively created. It was interesting to compare and contrast this new Earth with our Earth. It's not much different in some ways and yet in others it feels foreign. But I think that's what made things interesting. The fact that while it's familiar in a few, and yet there's more to discover about this new Earth.

I'm also going to give you a bit of warning. Throughout the book, the pace keeps going faster and faster until it slides right over a cliff. The ending was well played and I find myself wanting to read more of D.L. Denham's work just to find out what happened and how everything will play out. So, well played Mr. Denham, well played.

The world of Reho is very much dog eat dog, or at least Reho's world seems to be that way. So if you like action, than you are sure to like Reho. Reho  was released on July 31st, so you should go check it out, preview a bit if you'd like to and than purchase it.
