** I Love Story Time was gifted an ARC in exchange for an honest review **
An AMAAAZING debut novel by Aussie author Evie Harper! You Loved Me At My Darkest was a well written, emotional, and incredibly suspenseful story about Lily and her younger sister Sasha. The storyline is non-stop…I could not put it down. A MUST read for fans of dark romance!
Lily and Sasha, two very close sisters from Australia, are recovery from the heartache of losing their parents in an automobile accident. Trying to move forward and lead the lives their parents would have wanted for them, they set off to travel the world. First stop…New York City. As they enjoy the sites of the city, little do they know that they have been marked, watched, and admired from the moment they stepped off the airplane.
“Stupid girls, you have a fox chasing you, and you are going to be so easy to catch.”
Kidnapped by Marco, a sex slave king pin, the sisters must hold on to the only thing they have, each other. Lily, carrying the weight of the world on her shoulders is determined to save them from an unforeseen evil; a life of abuse.
“My eyes sting with tears that I won’t allow to fall. Rage and desperation surge through my blood like a torrent of forceful water, heating my body and clenching my fist. I don’t want to tell my sister she may get hit, that she may be touched.”
Jake, Marco’s right hand man, is lost and broken himself. Due to a tragic past of his own, he is not the person he once was and is left as just a shell of who he used to be; enabling him to be disconnected, unattached and without emotion; a perfect solider for Marco. Of course, that is up until the moment he locks eyes with Lily, the only girl that can see the storm of emotions brewing in his eyes.
“She’s the fire, and I am a stupid motherfucking moth who wants what I can’t have. And what I can’t have is Lily Morgan.”
You will love Lily. She is a fighter with a smart mouth and an unwavering will to survive. Even as Marco tries to break her, she never loses her determination to break free from the hell that she and her sister are trapped in.
“As much as I want to fall back into bed and hide away from the world, I’m not going to give Marco or anyone else the power to destroy me. It’s my time to be brave. I might still cry and I might still fall, but at the end of all this, I will be free and I will bring them all to their knees.”
I absolutely loved this book! It was so emotional. I could relate to Lily and her need to do whatever it took to keep her sister safe as I have two sisters that I would die to protect. My heart broke for Lily and Sasha for what they had to endure. Their journey will stay with you long after you finish this book. Evie Harper did a beautiful job bringing her characters to life. You will feel everything! I look forward to reading more from Evie and I am hoping that there will be a book about Joseph and Alexa and Kanye and Emily. Their stories have yet to be told! This was definitely 5 star MUST read for me. I would recommend it to any reader that enjoys a dark, gritty, suspenseful storyline with an unexpected hero and a bad ass heroine.

**** I Love Story Time was gifted an ARC in exchange for an honest review *****
WOW!!! There have only been a few books that have left me in awe and this is one of them! What an amazing, emotional, mind blowing, psychological thriller! There is so much I want to share with you but I can’t. I don’t want to ruin any of it so… YOU MUST READ!
Melody is the perfect daughter; the perfect friend. She is lovely, innocent, and full of light until one night, life as she knows it, is tragically altered. Away at college, Melody seeks to find solace and friendship…hoping to find a reason to breathe again amongst her pain and heart break. Little does she know, that her life will once again be turned on its axis…for better or worse.
Blake is cold, calculated, and lives to protect his younger brother, Ryan. He struggles with the sins of his past and present and fights against the darkness that threatens to overtake him until the day he literally runs into HER; the one girl that makes his heart beat again. Struggling with emotions he has never felt, Blake begins to question who he is and what the love that he feels for Melody is worth…life or death.
This was the first book I have read by Ker Dukey and I am so completely convinced that I will read EVERYTHING she has ever written. This book is definitely a dark erotic romance and is not for those looking for a light, romantic alpha male that sweeps the girl off her feet. This is dark, violent, and intense! Empathy is for fans of The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo, Raw, and Topping From Below. The storyline will keep you in constant angst and the epilogue will rock your world. I cannot wait for you to read it…I completely LOVED it! 5 MIND BLOWING STARS!

I was really looking forward to the conclusion of Logan and Cassandra's story. I have loved this series thus far and this one was no different. I will admit in the beginning, it did take some time for me to get into it, but as it went on, it just got better and better!
I loved Logan...always have. He still made me swoon! I loved how much he loved Cassandra and how much he needed her at times throughout this story. He was always there for her, doing anything and everything he could. Always showed her how much he loved her and how much he needed her, even if it was just being in the same room. He would say the simplest things that would warm any women's heart......
He kissed the tip of my nose and murmured, "You're so damn adorable."
"I thought I was hot," I teased, kissing his jaw.
"You're everything I could want and more."
Oliver was just as cute in this one as before. He seriously was just the most loving little boy. He loved his dad with all his heart and loved all of his family just as much. Some of his comments totally made me laugh...
"Thank you for looking out for me, Oliver. Your daddy's raising a perfect little gentleman.
He looked back at me and smiled."Yeah, I know. Uncle Jax says Daddy raises hell, too, in his bedroom. Weird, huh?"
HaHa! The things kids say!
Now...Uncle Jax! He is such a firecracker. I can't get over him, and I loved his personality. I loved how playful he was. I really enjoyed when he teased Cassandra. I felt bad for him in some parts of the book...towards the middle and the end. It was like no matter what he did, he felt that he couldn't come clean to Logan. Logan of course would be upset with him, but I wish he would have come clean instead of the book ending the way it did. I'm really hoping that Jax will get a book! I would definitely love to read more about him!
Cassandra really grew on me in this book. I loved how she loved Oliver from the very beginning. This time around she puts up with so much when it comes to Oliver's mom, Natasha. Cassandra went toe to toe with her and I couldn't have been happier that she never once backed down to protect HER boys! I was glad that she wasn't one of those girls that thought it was best to let them go so that they could be a "family" and didn't fight for what she wanted. I was extremely happy that she didn't let Natasha get in between her and Logan.
As for Natasha, all I can say is I hated her. I shamelessly admit that I am happy that she got what she deserved in the end!
All in all, this series was really good! I would love to read more about the other characters of Harmony! I'd like to see what happens next in Logan and Cassandra's life and what's going on with Jax, A story about Luke and Julia would be great too! I highly recommend this series!

Excerpt:
The waitress looked to Hilary, who was staring past all of us. "I’ll be right back."
She was up instantly and heading across the bar, where Caleb stood, his eyes on her. I scanned the room, my nerves spiking. Did Logan come with him?
"I don’t see him," Natasha said.
"What?"
"Logan. I don’t think he’s here."
"Right. Doesn’t matter. He knows it’s a girls’ night." I peeked again in the direction of Caleb to find him and Hilary gone.
"Caleb seems like a friendly guy. Good to Oliver, from what I hear," Natasha said, turning to face me.
The waitress appeared with our drinks, stunning me at how quick she was. "Anything else?" she asked.
"No, thanks." I lifted my glass and took a sip before turning my attention back to Natasha. "Caleb loves Oliver. He considers him family."
"I want Oliver to have a lot of good role models in his life, Cassandra. I don’t know much about Caleb, but I do know if he’s close to my son, I’ll be getting to know him better as well."
I said nothing and took another sip—a bigger one this time, draining nearly half the glass. Hilary would have a real problem with Natasha cozying up to Caleb, even in the interest of Oliver. Hilary wasn’t one to trust easily, and Natasha wasn’t exactly easily trusted.
"I’ve known him most of my life," I told her. "He’s a good guy. No need to worry."
"That possessive, irritating, gorgeous man is gonna drive me crazy!" Hilary growled, slipping back into her side of the booth. "Seriously, can you believe him?"
"Is he still here?" I followed her penetrating stare and spotted Caleb watching us as he maneuvered toward the door.
"He’s leaving. Said he only stopped in to pick up some paperwork. I call bullshit! That bouncer called him, and he just had to come and check on me."
"I think it’s sweet." I smiled. "And it’s not like he’s standing here hounding you. He left, didn’t he?"
A slow smile brightened her face. "Yeah. Damn it, he is sweet."
"Or has a guilty conscience. You know, those that cheat worry others will too," Natasha blurted out.
My head snapped her way, my jaw dropping. I started as she continued as if she hadn't just slapped Hilary in the face.
"I’m just saying—he’s hot and he’s been around the scene. I’d be careful."
I shifted my gaze to Hilary, aware she was struggling to keep her claws sheathed.
"Caleb isn’t cheating on me, I assure you."
Natasha frowned. "I’m sorry. That was a shitty thing for me to say. I didn’t mean it to come out that way."
"Right." Hilary sipped the juice in front of her.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars
An AMAAAZING debut novel by Aussie author Evie Harper! You Loved Me At My Darkest was a well written, emotional, and incredibly suspenseful story about Lily and her younger sister Sasha. The storyline is non-stop…I could not put it down. A MUST read for fans of dark romance!
Lily and Sasha, two very close sisters from Australia, are recovery from the heartache of losing their parents in an automobile accident. Trying to move forward and lead the lives their parents would have wanted for them, they set off to travel the world. First stop…New York City. As they enjoy the sites of the city, little do they know that they have been marked, watched, and admired from the moment they stepped off the airplane.
“Stupid girls, you have a fox chasing you, and you are going to be so easy to catch.”
Kidnapped by Marco, a sex slave king pin, the sisters must hold on to the only thing they have, each other. Lily, carrying the weight of the world on her shoulders is determined to save them from an unforeseen evil; a life of abuse.
“My eyes sting with tears that I won’t allow to fall. Rage and desperation surge through my blood like a torrent of forceful water, heating my body and clenching my fist. I don’t want to tell my sister she may get hit, that she may be touched.”
Jake, Marco’s right hand man, is lost and broken himself. Due to a tragic past of his own, he is not the person he once was and is left as just a shell of who he used to be; enabling him to be disconnected, unattached and without emotion; a perfect solider for Marco. Of course, that is up until the moment he locks eyes with Lily, the only girl that can see the storm of emotions brewing in his eyes.
“She’s the fire, and I am a stupid motherfucking moth who wants what I can’t have. And what I can’t have is Lily Morgan.”
You will love Lily. She is a fighter with a smart mouth and an unwavering will to survive. Even as Marco tries to break her, she never loses her determination to break free from the hell that she and her sister are trapped in.
“As much as I want to fall back into bed and hide away from the world, I’m not going to give Marco or anyone else the power to destroy me. It’s my time to be brave. I might still cry and I might still fall, but at the end of all this, I will be free and I will bring them all to their knees.”
I absolutely loved this book! It was so emotional. I could relate to Lily and her need to do whatever it took to keep her sister safe as I have two sisters that I would die to protect. My heart broke for Lily and Sasha for what they had to endure. Their journey will stay with you long after you finish this book. Evie Harper did a beautiful job bringing her characters to life. You will feel everything! I look forward to reading more from Evie and I am hoping that there will be a book about Joseph and Alexa and Kanye and Emily. Their stories have yet to be told! This was definitely 5 star MUST read for me. I would recommend it to any reader that enjoys a dark, gritty, suspenseful storyline with an unexpected hero and a bad ass heroine.

EMPATHY by Ker Dukey ~ Release Day Launch
Title: Empathy
Author: Ker Dukey
Genre: Dark Romance/Erotic Suspense
Amazon US | Amazon UK
Add to your #TBR
Blake:
I am a brother
I am a police detective
I am a contract killer
I don’t want to love
I don’t want to feel
I don’t want … EMPATHY.
They say some people are born with decreased activity in the front central lobe causing them a deficiency in empathy. Maybe that’s true about me but whether I was born this way or created in a moment of evil, empathy was something I didn’t possess until her green eyes met mine in the mirror and I couldn’t take her life.
I didn’t want to feel, didn’t want this woman in my life complicating how I lived but she was there at every turn. Sent to haunt me for my sins. Her light so bright she provoked a shadow from everyone she touched. When a job turns bad quickly altering my life forever I’m forced to feel. When nothing is making sense I’m forced to face truths I never would recover from. When life drowns you in its cruelty you don’t know which way the current will drag you or who you’ll become once you re-surface.
Melody:
I was a daughter
I was a student
I was a victim
Did I have his love?
Did I make him feel?
Did I have his empathy?
When the actions of a soulless killer forces sorrow into my veins I never dreamed the man healing my wounds would be the one to leave the worst scar. His love would scar my soul. Scars are permanent; I will never feel the relief from them. Will I learn to live with them, remember why I have them and learn never to let him close enough to inflict more? Will I eventually cover them… like tattoos coating them with new memories, new love and new starts? I didn’t know these answers because the pain was too suffocating, the only thing I knew was they will always be under the surface lingering. He had scars too, from his sins. There is nothing that can cover them, they were too deep, too ugly, too dark and they marked us both forever.
I have always had a passion for storytelling, whether it be through lyrics or bed time stories with my sisters. I wanted to be an actress growing up so I could live many roles but I learned early on that my mind was too active... I would want to change the script.I would watch films and think of ways they could of improved the story if they took another direction so i thought it best that i tell my own.
My mum would always have a book in her hand when I was young and passed on her love for reading, inspiring me to venture into writing my own. I tend to have a darker edge to my writing. Not all love stories are made from light, some are created in darkness but are just as powerful and worth telling.
When I'm not lost in the world of characters I love spending time with my family. I'm a mum and that comes first in my life but when I do get down time I love attending music concerts or reading events with my younger sister.
You can find me on facebook where i love interacting with my readers.
I Love Story Time's Review by Lys
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
WOW!!! There have only been a few books that have left me in awe and this is one of them! What an amazing, emotional, mind blowing, psychological thriller! There is so much I want to share with you but I can’t. I don’t want to ruin any of it so… YOU MUST READ!
Melody is the perfect daughter; the perfect friend. She is lovely, innocent, and full of light until one night, life as she knows it, is tragically altered. Away at college, Melody seeks to find solace and friendship…hoping to find a reason to breathe again amongst her pain and heart break. Little does she know, that her life will once again be turned on its axis…for better or worse.
Blake is cold, calculated, and lives to protect his younger brother, Ryan. He struggles with the sins of his past and present and fights against the darkness that threatens to overtake him until the day he literally runs into HER; the one girl that makes his heart beat again. Struggling with emotions he has never felt, Blake begins to question who he is and what the love that he feels for Melody is worth…life or death.
This was the first book I have read by Ker Dukey and I am so completely convinced that I will read EVERYTHING she has ever written. This book is definitely a dark erotic romance and is not for those looking for a light, romantic alpha male that sweeps the girl off her feet. This is dark, violent, and intense! Empathy is for fans of The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo, Raw, and Topping From Below. The storyline will keep you in constant angst and the epilogue will rock your world. I cannot wait for you to read it…I completely LOVED it! 5 MIND BLOWING STARS!

Blog Tour: September 22nd to 27th
Title: Commitment (Changed Series Book 2)
Author: Heather Dahlgren
Release Date: July 31st, 2014
Hosted By: Author Sandra Love
Maddie Duff had a horrible
childhood - dreadful, vile, and appalling, thanks to her deranged mother.
Maddie was forced into a life that made her believe that perfection and beauty
were the most important things. She was taught that the only relationships
worth having with men were those of a sexual nature; men were not worth the
commitment.
She leads a life of fun, carefree, emotionless
sex with countless men. She lives with her best friends, Kenz and Becca, who
she considers her only family. She also has an ongoing ‘friends with benefits’
thing with her friend and neighbor, Young.
Tyler Young is hot, sexy and loves women. He is
foul-mouthed, idiotic and hysterical. He lives with his best friends, Campbell
and Dick. These three may bust each other; however, they have each other’s back
in the blink of an eye. Young has his sights set on Maddie. They have an
intense, mind-blowing time in the bedroom … Until he decides he wants more.
Even though Young has Maddie feeling things she
has never felt before, not to mention her panties on fire, when he suggests a
relationship she takes off. Young is determined to make Maddie his, whatever
the cost. He comes up with a plan that he believes will do just that. Make
Maddie his … mind, body and soul.
Can Young convince Maddie that he is worth
breaking all her rules for? Will Maddie be able to let down her walls, forget
what she believes, and let Young in? What happens when the past finally catches
up with you and the truth is revealed?

Description of Changed:
Kenz hated high school. Having no friends, no boyfriend, and worst of
all being bullied—graduation was the only thing she looked forward to. After graduation, she completely reinvents
herself becoming the person she always wanted to be. Someone different. Changed. When she gets to college, she easily makes
friends, boyfriends, and loves life. For
once in her life, she adores the person she has become.
Enter Campbell Boyd —the
attraction between them is instant. He
is sexy as hell. Sweet, romantic,
flirty. He definitely knows how to treat
a woman in and out of the bedroom.
Once he has his sights set on
Kenz, there is nothing that will stand in his way. Or maybe there is something that could ruin
it all? One small detail that Kenz tries
desperately to ignore—one that can only be swept under the rug for so
long.
What happens when the past and
present collide and secrets are revealed?
Is it possible to forgive or will it destroy them both? One thing’s for sure—things are going to
change.

I am 36 years old. I am married to my high school sweet
heart. We have been married for almost
12 years and have 3 amazing kids. I’m a
stay at home mom and my kids definitely keep me busy. I live at the Jersey Shore and love all there
is to do here. I love nature, birds
especially. I enjoy hiking and fishing
with my family.
I have always loved to
write. In high school I used to write
stories, poems and a lot of love notes!
I absolutely love to read. I love
the way I can get lost in a book and forget about the world around me. Now that I am writing books, I feel the same
way, only it’s my book I’m getting lost in.
As for now, I am loving this
journey of becoming an author. It has
been more then I dreamed it would be.
You can always find me online. I love social media, so please feel free to
interact with me.
