Destructive by Jessica Prince


Destructive pulled me in and did not let me go until the very end. It's a dark and sexy read that will leave you wanting more.

To some it will be your typical book where the guy is filthy rich and the girl isn't but this book is so so so so much more than that. There is a dark and brutal past for both of the main characters and the deeper you get into the story, the more heart wrenching it is. Don't worry though, it's not all dark. There are some hilarious scenes from side characters that I am hoping and praying get their own story because I am in love with them.

You will have your "Oh shit" moment and like I said to myself when I got to a certian part, "I fucking did not see that coming!! Oh crap!! Oh fuck!!"

This book does end in a small, very very very small cliffy but nothing to where you will be screaming at your reading device "WHAT?!", "WHY DID IT END LIKE THAT?!"

Some of my favorite lines from the book:

"So is the Italian stereotype true? Are you hung like a horse?"......."Oh come on! Like you weren't thinking it. I bet I could blow this guy without even getting on my knees."~Carmen

"I can smell how aroused you are, bella. If I slid my hand under your dress right now, would you be wet for me?"~Gabriel

"I'll always make you come, but you'll come how I want you to."~Gabriel

"Men causes nothing but pain."~Marley

"So you basically marked me then?" "And I'll continue to mark you, over and over until I've made my point if that's what it takes." "And what point is that?" "That you're mine and I'm yours."~Marley & Gabriel

Oh....did I forget to mention that Gabriel is one hot and sexy as sin Italian hunk? *fans myself*

This is by far Jessica's best work!

Dirty Angels by Karina Halle


When you read a lot, like I do, you come to see what works for you and what doesn't. You come to find what author you get and don't get when they're telling a story. I've discovered that anybody can be an author but it takes someone truly talented to be a phenomenal storyteller and Karina Halle has taken her writing abilities beyond with Dirty Angels.

My destiny was constantly being rewritten and it would continue to be until it was fulfilled. Until I was at the top of the world and I had everything I'd ever wanted at my feet. Until I could crush everything with none of the mercy that was bestowed upon me.

For those who've met Javier Bernal in The Artist Trilogy, you know how he is...a contradiction, ruthless, enigmatic, charming, demented, perceptive, cruel, possessive, and seductive. In Dirty Angels he is still the same maybe more, maybe less. Javier will do anything to get what he wants to become more successful in his line of business and what better way than to kidnap his rival cartels wife Luisa. Javier sees her as another means to get ahead in the game but what he doesn't expects is that Luisa will be the game changer in his life. Luisa is one of the best and strongest heroine I've read. What she had and has to endure is super woman worthy. Just because Javier feels for Luisa doesn't mean she's not left without being hurt. Even in their situation, Javier and Luisa can't help but feel a connection, they can't help the chemistry that explodes within, they reflect each other.

"Luisa, " I said carefully, looking into her shining, desperate eyes. "You can't save me." She smiled, letting out a caustic laugh. "I don't want to save you," she said, bringing her face closer to mine. "I want to join you."

Dirty Angels is gruesome, sexy, solid, funny, romantic in a psycho kinda way and it's by far my absolute favorite read of 2014.

*side note* Javier FEELS!!!! and one line that I couldn't stop laughing at..."The ghost of narcos' past has returned to fuck you up the ass."

This is the story of a man and a woman discovering love is blind to how you grew up, who your friends are, and where you live. Love sees only the heart and soul of whom it belongs to. Someone once said that the best way to predict the future is to invent it. As a boy, Jayson Santiago made a vow to leave behind the projects where he grew up. He planned to conquer the world and find a woman who could not only hold it down, but also hold him up. Now he’s the reigning king of hip-hop, and while he has the professional success he always wanted, he’s missing the personal success he craves. Victoria Watson is the daughter of an oil tycoon who never wanted for anything. Circumstances have forced her out of her protective bubble and into the real world, where she struggles to make ends meet while finding a way to get back the only important thing in her life. Will they be able to make Jayson’s prophecy come true? Or will they be pushed past their breaking point? It isn’t easy to keep focused on the heart and soul of the one you love when you’re always being tested. Then again, the best things in life are always worth fighting for...

Excerpt

Copyright © Jessica Ingro “You do know you’re beautiful, right? And your mom would be proud to see what a special woman you’ve become,” he whispered in my ear. When he was done speaking, he pulled back fractionally and stared into my eyes. Blue meeting green in an effort to communicate how genuine that statement was for him. My breath hitched, and I fought hard to swallow past the lump that was building in my throat. He said the most perfect things at just the right time. In that moment, I really wanted this man beyond just in my bedroom. I wanted him in my life. He leaned away and settled on my side of the booth, propping his foot up on the opposite side and stretching his arm along the back of the seat. “What other songs did you like? Or is it presumptuous of me to assume you liked more than one song on that CD?” I was grateful for the lighter topic, since the chemistry between us was starting to feel a bit combustible. “Not at all. I liked most of them, but ‘The Struggle’ spoke to me. I felt like you gave me a glimpse inside you. It was humbling to be given that opportunity. To hear how you struggled to be the son your mother would be proud of and the man that a woman would want to spend her life with. The man a daughter would want to call father. It was really very beautiful.” I watched as something passed over his face that was both breathtaking and raw. Before I had a chance to put my finger on what it was, it was gone. Replaced with a serious look that made me cringe a little. I wanted the playful Jay back. Not the one that appeared to be lost in thoughts, and not all of them good. “Although I have to say the song about fucking your best friend’s girl one night and then hitting an entire sorority the next was just as inspirational,” I deadpanned. “How did you possibly fit them in all in one night? Inquiring minds want to know.” I winked and hoped that would break the mood. It worked when he threw a fry from my plate at me. “Brat.” He laughed with a half grin on his face. “Really, though, is that true? Did you really have sex with that many women in the span of one night?” He looked uncomfortable for a split second before answering. “Maybe not all of them, but there were quite a few.” “Huh. So you’re a stallion then?” Growing up with horses I knew that stallions were often bred more than once in a day. If this story was true, I could imagine him going all night like a real thoroughbred. That thought was a little too much for my brain to comprehend. “I haven’t had any complaints. And I’m certainly hung like one.” “You know, they say the men who brag the most are the ones that shouldn’t be bragging.” “Oh, Tori. Now you’re testing me. If you want me to show you, baby, it can be arranged.”
