Yes!Yes!YES!YEEEES! Staci Hart you did it again! Seriously for me this was the most amazing book form all the Austen series. I thought I was in love with Wasted Words. Then I read A Thousand Letters and I was blown away. Now, after Living out Loud I am speechless. Never in million years would have thought that I am going to like this even more than the preivous ones. Well, I was obviously mistaken.

Living out Loud is a beautiful story about Greg Brandon and Anni Daschle (and Will Bailey, but he doesn't matter). When Annies dad dies in a car accident and her mom loses her ability to walk, they have no choice than to move from her home town in Texas. New city, new beginning, new chances, a chance to start Living out Loud. After successfully bumping into Greg at Wasted Words she can't wait to start working there and finally cross one of the things on her "firsts" list. After Greg sees Annie he can't stop thinking about her. After he sees her age, well, rather lets not discuss it... They know better than to start something without future (Hey, don't judge me, it's them who can't see it).  At least they thought so, but however much they want, they can't deny the chemistry between them. After spending a day with Greg, nothing could be more perfect. Not until Annie meets the man of her dreams. Will Bailey is perfect, rich, quoting famous poems, taking to fancy dates, saying always the right things... At least until Greg takes Annie to watch Romeo & Juliet (Soooo romantic...). Well, after that Will is jealous. Remember Cams singles night? After Greg throvs out Will in front of Annie, Will is even more jeelous and (Thank God, or rather thank Staci Hart) thats the end of Annie + Will and the begining of Annie + Greg. A couple of chapters and an accident (or not quite an accident) later, Greg and Annie are together and I couldn't be more happy for them.

Annie Daschle is a petite girl with a big heart and even bigger dreams. Just like the bookworms all over the world, she reads about love at first sight, butterfly sparks and all. When she meets Greg, and there are no instant sparks and butterflies he is friend zoned. After losing her father, she tries to live her best, wanting to make her father proud. She is smart and witty and can play piano like a pro. Also, she is having some issues with her heart waiting for a surgery. Will is everything she was waiting for. The prince of her dreams. Or does it seem so. Just until he shows how much of a control freak he is. That is the moment Annie realises, she was comparing Will to Greg and all the time Greg came out as a winner. I like Annie and can relate to her. She is trying to open her wings, trying to fly. She is in the process of learning what is true and what not, and who she can and can't trust.

The whole world was spread out in front of me, like a feast of possibility, and I would take a taste of everything I could.

Greg Brandon is a hottie with tattooed arms, hard rock abs, the patience of a saint and a smile that can make girls drop their panties (or that is how I imagined him). Being almost thirty he considers Anne way too young for him. Fortunately for us he realises that love is not about the age. It's about heart. He sacrifices a lot for Annies happiness. Pretends to be okay with Will, while he wants to ruin his pretty, charming face. After Annie chooses Will, he is crushed, but never gives up the hope that he can win his girl back and is prepared to be there when Annie falls, and sees Will for who he really is. After it happens, he doesn't hesitate to catch her, and be there for her. 

I love you. No matter what, no matter where, no matter how, I love you.

Now Will Bailey... I can't say I hate him. I don't hate him, I just can not stand him. Truth to be told I somehow felt from the beginning that he is going to do something to hurt Annie. But I never imagined that he will be such a big asshole. However, at the end he apologises, and I think he really feels bad for hurting Annie. Me being a softie, I forgave him part of it. Not everything, just a part of it. I would love to see him in one of the books, see him change his behaviour. I think he is just lonley.

As I wrote it at the beginning this was my most favorite part of the Austen series, but I really hope there are going to be a couple more books.

Fallen Crest High (Fallen Crest High #1)

Image
It was a bit long time ago when I last wrote about a book. This time I started from a new author: Tijan, her series Fallen Crest High. The first book from the series is named the same the whole series. I have to tell you I was genuinely surprised by the book. I reeeeally loved it. Mason and Logan Kade are two brothers who did their own thing. They were rich and expected to attend Samanthas school, Fallen Crest Academy. They chose public school instead and now Samantha has to live with them. The problem is that she doesn't care at all: about them, about her friends, about her cheating boyfriend, or even about her parent's divorce. It is until rumor starts about her and the "Oh, so famous" Kade brothers, and until Logan Kade decides the he likes her, and takes her under his, and of course, Masons protective wings. Well, beside the Kade brother there is the ex boyfriend, and the friend who wants to be the boyfriend. There are the other girls, who are jumping fo...

Hardcore (#1, #2 & #3)

Image
The next series I started was Hardcore, also from Staci Hart. I have to tell you it was a long time ago, I've had such mixed feelings about a book. Volume one I liked, volume two not so much, but volume three I loved so much. People don’t change. They’re only revealed. Cory James has never known a life where she wasn’t running. Running from the cops, her home, her past. Running from love. The only time she’s free is when she throws on her hood and takes to the roofs to run. Stealing is nothing, lying inevitable, byproducts of survival. A way for Cory to provide for herself and for her younger sister, Jill, give her the life Cory couldn’t have. For five years, Cory built a house of cards, where the first card has fallen when she met Van and it was only just a matter of time before her whole house of cards is in danger of falling apart. She can tell herself over and again that she doesn’t care, but even she knows it’s a lie.  Today marked the first step toward betraying hi...
