Blurb
Easton Cruz was my world.

Our souls collided the day he walked into that bar.
His presence made me whole in a way
I hadn’t been before.
He was my forever.
Until one day, he wasn’t.
The beautiful life we were starting to create was
destroyed by betrayal.
And after two long years, I was still trying to move on
and put my shattered pieces from his
deception back together.
Except when the man you hate haunts your dreams,
moving on is impossible.
Maybe that’s why my friends tricked me into
going for a secluded weekend in the woods.
A vacation to heal and finally move on.
But this trip was anything but serene and healing.
It was more like a nightmare.
I vowed never to let him in enough to hurt me again.
Because I hated him.
The problem is, I love him more…


MY REVIEW

Callie's friends have staged an intervention. They want her to get back to the woman she was before her devastating breakup a couple years ago. So they trick her into taking a vacation, and don't tell her who will also be at the cabin where she'll be spending her vacation. Now she and Easton are stuck together and they're forced to work through the pain they're both still suffering from. This is either their second chance, or they'll walk away with closure at least.


I don't know how many times I've thought this while reading romance - but communication, people!! It's the key to making things work. The whole reason for their breakup was a lack of communication, and boy did it hurt. I hurt for both of them, even as I was really upset that they missed out on happiness because they didn't communicate. This second chance story is an emotional gut check, with lots pain for them to work through, a lot of anger, both misdirected and deserved, but in the end, I was really glad they were able to finally get on the same page.

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...
