I know I disappeared for a while, had so life issues come up and smack me in the face so I got a little lost for a while. I 'm not a person who gets depressed I'm usually that friend that thinks everything will work out and the glass is always half full, so imagine my surprise when something happened and I realized I was the one who was being negative and sad, instead of thinking it'll all work out alright in the end. I couldn't even bring myself to want to read WTF? you say Yes I was depressed but thankfully I am seeing the light through the clouds now and their were 3 books that helped me break through I know it sounds silly to some but books have always been my salvation I'll say, they can make me laugh or cry or teach me something new so when I was at my worse point thats where I finally went to my books!
I also found tumblr and have not only spent an incredible amount of time on there I have found other people just like me, and yes sterek is back I mean teen wolf sorry, no not really sorry LOL speaking of tumblr it also made me want to go back and re-read my comfort reads so I went and finished A Matter of Time series by Mary Calmes again & Cut & Run series by Abigail Roux both really have helped bring me back from a really dark place so Thank You to those incredibly amazing and talented authors you may never know just what a difference your stories can have on a person but please note that they do! Ok I gotta atleast brag about the 3 books that we'll say woke me up first is: STILL by Mary Calmes
What happens when two
men who have been together for seventeen years fall out of love? Sivan
Cruz, a set director in San Francisco, and Walter Wainwright, a big shot
Bay Area lawyer, find out the hard way. Walter loves Sivan with all his
heart but rarely talks about it, and Sivan needs to hear the words. The
language of the love they have shared for so long, that has enabled
them to build a life together and raise two children, stops working.
They become—still.
When Sivan asks for a divorce, Walter doesn’t know how to say no. They separate, but while Sivan sees the relationship as over, Walter sees only a temporary setback. He has never lost his passion for Sivan and decides he has to say something before he ends up loving his husband in silence for the rest of his life.
*5 STARS*
Now this story had me bawlin' from the first page, it's deeply emotional and being someone who has been in married for 20 yrs I got it. I completely understood where both Sivan & Walter were coming from sometimes life just gets in the way and sometimes we just let ourselves get in the way too. This is not an easy read its intense and sometimes heart wrenching but for me it was a great read. I wanted to smack Sivan about half of the story but I so totally got what he was feeling and most of us don't ever have anyone like Walter who never gives up. It's so easy nowdays to just give up and start over so most don't even try to fix what got broken so here's a great story of what could happen and I have to say I thought it was Awesome. I won't sugar coat it it is an intense emotional book you will cry, but there are also beautiful and sweet moments that will make you sigh. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND but please note you need a box of tissues.
Cal loves to snuggle up in bed with his partner, Lee, and listen to a tale told in the darkness. His favorite story is about the vampire, Lord Oliver Brook, a lone vampire in London, who uses humans for sex and food.
When Michael Benton moves in next door, Brook's world takes an unexpected turn. Young, blond and gorgeous, Michael doesn't discourage his attentions, but he makes it plain he doesn't want to become a vampire.
Against his own nature, Brook takes their relationship slowly. Then Michael disappears and Brook discovers he's not been the only one pursuing the young human. Will he find Michael before he's lost forever?
*5 STARS*
Now this story is kinda a short one and I believe its also gonna have a sequel (I hope it does anyway)
I bawled at this one too, but not from the beginning it's a really sweet sometimes funny some times intense love story that I truly didn't see the ending till I got there and I must say I wanted to read more of Cal & Michael their story starts as a story but becomes theirs very easily. It was another tissue read for me but I thought it was fun and sexy also. I seriously hope to read more it's such a fascinating story with interesting characters which is what I like in my favorite stories I like wanting more but please don't wait to long to give me more pretty please. ANOTHER HIGHLY RECOMMEND
Even though he's really
not over his ex-boyfriend Jamie, twenty three year old former football
player Charlie finds himself drawn to Dante Dombruso, the gorgeous,
highly dangerous leader of a mafia crime family. Dante is the perfect
rebound fling -- six feet, four inches of raw sex and hard Italian
muscle, wrapped in an expensive suit.
The confident, sexy crime boss is way out of Charlie’s comfort zone. But Charlie already lost everything once by giving in to his fear, and he's not willing to make the same mistake again.
If he’s going to do this, Charlie knows he can’t hold back. He can't date this man a little, he can't trust him a little, he can't go to bed with him a little. If he's going to get involved with Dante Dombruso, Charlie has to be All In.
*5 STARS*
This was another really great story not really a tearjerker but a really intense and sweet love story, this is a first book for me by this author, I have since bought 2 more from her yeah it was that good. I like the chemistry between Dante & Charlie and how they interacted with each other between the hot sex, at times deeply emotional and intense but also sweet and funny. This is definitely one I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
Ok I'm gonna stop for now but these three books were very cleansing for me, maybe it's true sometimes you just need to cry it out or sometimes you just need a book that says it will get better doesn't matter who you are or what your age is it can always get better. Later Peeps I promise not to be gone so long again
