An Unfortunate Event(Not a book Review)

Alright so my family and I are now living in a hotel due to a fire at our house. My room and my brother's were completely destroyed although thankfully I grabbed my phone which had my license in it and my computer but no chargers. I'm sending the computer back to Dell as there is some glitches going on as well as getting a new charger and so I'll be without my laptop until Dell it back to me and I get a charger. I'll try to continue blogging from my phone but I'm not sure how well that will go. We'll try it out and see and if it's not working than I'll let you know and figure something out.

Need a Little Help, Please!

Okay, so bear with me. This is a decision that I took some time in deciding. But right now, I feel a bit stressed out. Not that authors are after me constantly or whatnot and I mean I don't have that many books to read just yet. But at the same time I do have school and I'm trying to be a bit more social(shocker I know). So even though I've only had Reading Shy With Aly for six months or so I've decided to search for someone who can read and review books for Reading Shy as well. At first it would just be reading and reviewing books and whatnot. But it would slowly move up until we were full partners. The only reason I'm doing this is because Reading Shy has been my baby since I've started it and I'm a bit of a control freak at the best of times. So I feel like slowly letting some of the control go would be best. 

And again I'm only doing this for some peace of mind for myself and so that Reading Shy can help s many more authors! If you're interested in blogging with me at Reading Shy With Aly than please feel free to fill out this application. New bloggers and experienced are welcomed! Right now I'm only looking for one to two people, but that might expand a bit depending on how this all goes. Let me know if the form doesn't work or whatnot as this is the first time I've used Google Drive for forms. What are you waiting for! Apply below!

Touched to the Heart by Elsa Winckler

(Image found on Goodreads)

"The Cavallo brothers packed a hell of a punch."-Elsa Winckler, Touched to the Heart

WARNING: This book contains sexual content and is not meant for younger readers.

Physiotherapist Caitlin Sutherland has what seems every type of bad date possible. But when Don Cavallo takes part in a race and needs the help of a physiotherapist, will he be the next subject for Caitlin's blog? Especially because he's known for dating a certain type of woman. Not only that but Don has had issues with females in the past as they've only gone for his fame and fortune. Can both move past their issues or will they be too much? Find the official description on Goodreads.

Elsa Winckler has created two characters that shouldn't fall in love and make it work and yet they do. It was interesting to see how the past affected the future for Caitlin and Don especially because both weren't looking for lasting relationships. Instead they seemed to be trying to find everything they possibly could to stay apart. It was amusing to see their thought processes as they did so.

Not to mention the funny moment that the two meet. It was amusing to see the sparks from the very beginning even though both get off on the wrong foot.

The writing was smooth, and it flowed well. It was a perfect mixture of funny and serious. Touched to the Heart is a great romance read, and I suggest you give it a chance! It comes out July 1st, 2014.
