Bang, bang!
They shot us down.

Bang, bang!
We ran through town.

Now here I am …

Bang, bang
… in an undercover police sting. 

Miranda Sikes is a twenty-year-old university student who hates venturing into the city, but her grandmother’s watchband isn’t going to repair itself.
The watchband doesn’t get fixed. 
She misses the bus home.
She’s stuck in the one place she loathes.
But there’s a silver lining: free wedding cake by Alessandro. It’s only the best cake in the world. Now all Miranda needs is a fiancé to dine with so she can meet the store’s terms. 
Miranda’s next decision will change the course of her day, her year, and her life. 
And it all happens when she grabs the arm of a man named Haggerty, finds herself shoeless while running down a busy street, and is forced to dive to the ground when she hears …

BANG! BANG!
Elle’s Book Blog - “Original, fun, and feisty! Those are the three words I think best describe Bang Bang by Belle Brooks!”

Brandy Roberts - “Ok I love Bang Bang it had me die laughing …..”

TheSassNerdBlog - “It was extremely well written, and the character progression and build up throughout the book was on point, the push and pull with the two main characters was highly addictive and fun to read. I think the author nailed this!”
We stand across the room from each other. Lane with a huge smirk plastered across his handsome face. I rub my chin, wondering how I can bring down this brick shithouse. I used the only trick I had in my bag of moves. What to do, what to do?

“Are you ready to charge at me again, or are you going to let me show you how to do this properly?”

I match his smirk. “Oh, you’re going down, doll face.”

“Doll face? Really?” His eyebrows hitch.

“It’s what I said, isn’t it?” I flip him the bird, which causes him to laugh once more.

“Okay, then it’s your funeral,” he teases.

“Or yours.”

“If you say so.”

“I do say so.”

“Well, come on then. I’m getting bored waiting.” He fake yawns, patting his hand in front of his lips.

Him and his smart mouth.
I bend my knees then sway from side to side. Go for his throat. That’s what I need to do.

“Are you coming or what?” He winks.

I need to show him I’m in control. I push my shoulders back and bounce on the balls of my feet until I take off at full pace towards him, bending my right arm and leaning in with my elbow.

Lane’s hands take my legs, and he flips me upside down. Mothertrucker. I scramble against his strength, and flick my legs around his neck, crossing my feet over each other behind his head, my head bouncing by his knees.

“Wrong move again,” he says. I feel his breath between my legs.

No shit!
I dangle, like a dead weight, until I cackle and squeeze my thighs as hard as I can around his neck.

Death by thigh strangulation. It could happen.

“Stop!” he shouts.

It’s working. I’m winning … until I’m not.

Review: One Little Lie by Whitney Barbetti

Review of One Little Lie by Whitney Barbetti ONE LITTLE LIE Hollis is a good girl with a crush on a broody musician. Unfortunately, that boy, Adam, hates her. Why? Because the chip on his shoulder leaves him thinking good girl, rich girl Hollis is a lemming like everyone else in their small town. Which makes it even more unfortunate when years after their high school encounter, Hollis' best friend tries to stick up for her and ends up telling her parents that Adam is the the boyfriend Hollis doesn't actually have. Oops. How will Hollis ever convince Adam to go along with her little lie? I really liked One Little Lie. Hollis is a really naive girl, but she has such a huge heart that I couldn't help but fall in love with her spirit. She's so sweet, so compassionate, the kind of person this world needs more of. Adam, on the other hand, eh, he didn't do much for me. His chip on the shoulder, broody asshole attitude did nothing to endear me to him, but because H...
