Teagan Walker gets around. Ask anyone—hell, ask her. She'll own it with a smile. But beneath that smile is a girl whose parents didn't want her. Whose grandparents raised her without affection. Whose struggle with a burn

ON MY KNEES (Stark International #2)

by J. Kenner

Erotic Romance

Published on June 23^rd, 2015

I never thought I’d lose control, but his desire took me right to the edge.

Powerful, ambitious, and devastatingly sexy, Jackson Steele was unlike any other man I’d ever known. He went after what he wanted with his whole mind, body, and soul—and I was the woman in his sights. One touch and I surrendered, one night together and I was undone.

Jackson and I had secrets, dark pieces of our pasts that threatened to swallow us both. We couldn’t outrun our demons, or the people trying to tear us apart. But in our passion we found salvation, and in each other’s arms we found release.

I was scared to trust Jackson fully, to finally let go. Yet no matter the dangers that lay ahead, I knew I was his—and now that we’ve laid claim, there’s no more holding back.

On My Knees is intended for mature audiences.

The king decides to save his daughter by sending her off to another world until she comes of age. As the princess comes back, the king realizes the price of his mistake and finds out what has more power, the heritage of the ancestors or growing up outside of family.

Review: Since You've Been Gone by Morgan Matson

It was Sloane who yanked Emily out of her shell and made life 100% interesting. But right before what should have been the most epic summer, Sloane just…disappears. All she leaves behind is a to-do list.

On it, thirteen Sloane-inspired tasks that Emily would normally never try. But what if they could bring her best friend back?

Apple picking at night? Okay, easy enough.

Dance until dawn? Sure. Why not?

Kiss a stranger? Um... 

Emily now has this unexpected summer, and the help of Frank Porter (totally unexpected), to check things off Sloane's list. Who knows what she’ll find?

Go skinny-dipping? Wait...what?

Recenzija: Ljupke Kosti Alice Sebold @Algoritam_hr

Prije nekoliko tjedana, na Instagramu sam objavila fotku svog primjerka knjige Ljupke Kosti koju nam donosi izdavačka kuća Algoritam. Obično taggam Algoritam na njihovim izdanjima i kako mi je Instagram povezan sa Twitterom, ekipa iz Algoritma je spomenula kako bih mogla napisati i osvrt na ovu knjigu i evo ga, idem se primiti posla i napisati ga.

The Royals - nova serija koja obećava

Pratite li serije? I koje?

Ja ponekad. Iskreno, nisam već dosta dugo pratila jednu, sve od Tračerice (Gossip Girl) za kojom još uvijek neprežaljeno plačem. Tu i tamo si pogledam GOT ali ne pratim onako aktivno, tek sam na polovini treće sezone. Nekada davno pratila sam Slatke male lažljivice i Vampirske Dnevnike ali izgubila sam se u svim tim pričama, a nije mi ni pomoglo što sam imala manje vremena za sve to – ipak se treba dobro organizirati ako misliš čitati, pisati i pratiti svaku seriju koju voliš. 

Prošla je prva godina bloga :D

Bok ljudi!

Eto, preživjela sam svoju prvu godinu bloganja :D

Prvo bih se željela zahvaliti svima koji me prate na društvenim mrežama (FB , Twitter, Instagram,...) i onima koji redovito prate sve što objavim ovdje, svaku recenziju i darivanje.
