Wow! I can't believe that I am once again making a Best Of List! It's too soon! This year has flown by so fast. I wonder if it has anything to do with all these great books that we all have been reading. Well, in any case, it must happen, time must start anew and I want to thank each and every set of eyes that have come to the blog to read about all the amazing authors we have showcased. I want to thank my girls, the AIR Ladies who work effortlessly and seamlessly to help run this blog! I want to thank every author and tour company for your trust in us so we can continue to help share the words we all love! This week's posts by Jamie, Jocelyn, and Annie have been great and I am excited to be able to post my list on this last countdown day! Now I will say again, that the order I have these books listed is in no way to represent the order in which I love them. It just is what it is. And what is it??
Simply,
All Is Read One Book At A Time.
As always, Enjoy the words!
My Best Books and Authors
Of
2015
Mandi
Beck- Love Hurts and Love Burns
My Dirty
Deac MMA fighter and The Princess – the dancer. My Girl! This story is not only
a romance, it’s also about learning to grow in a direction you never thought
possible. It’s about loss and honor. These books will take you to a fight
between the two sexiest main characters I’ve ever read!
Adriana
Lock- Sacrifice
This book.
There aren’t words for this book. #TeamBelieve Adriana pushed the limits with
this story. Sacrifice is just what the title says it is. A story about the
struggles you endure when life doesn’t work out the way you plan. The pain and
determination that comes naturally when the one thing in your world that brings
sunshine starts to darken and there is nothing you can do but fight. Fight for
Ever. Fight for unconditional love. What happens when you sacrifice everything
there is for those that can anymore?
Holy
Manolos!! This book came to me while I was completely unaware who this author
was! I secretly love that! I’m a bit selfish. When I find a “new to me author”
who has a back-shelf… I am IN HEAVEN!! I
have more words to devour from my new favorite! I feel like I don’t have to
wait for more. I can just start from the beginning. But anyway I digress, far!
LOL so yeah, Not The One. Reinforced my love for all things UK. Made me further
believe in destiny. Not The One broke my heart and filled it with love at the
same time!
Ilsa
Madden-Mills- Dirty English
3 words.
Pride and Prejudice for the modern readers. Ok so that’s more than 3, but the
effect is there. All I will say is that you’ll end up wanting your own man or
woman to quote Jane Austin to you…. Naked or fully clothed! Whew! Oh and let me
not forget “Goosebumps now, orgasms later.”…
Carmen
Jenner- Kick, Tank, Now Leaving Sugartown, Revelry
This author
right here. Since I’ve started with the first book in the Sugartown series,
Carmen Jenner remains to be a MUST READ AUTHOR for me. She never disappoints.
Always kicks your mind into overdrive. Will forever warp you into thinking
there are rainbows and unicorns then tragically yank all that happiness away.
But always, and I mean always soothes your bum with some sexy sexy! Whether she
is writing about dark MC dangers, rock stars or Milkshakes and pies, Carmen
Jenner will slap your arse and make it hers until the words stop flowing!
Renée
Carlino- Before We Were Strangers
I loved
this book. I love a second chance romance. But I also love when I can read a
book so well written that I can be transported back in time to understand how I
got to the future. Poignantly satisfying.
Celeste
Grande- Live Me (A Pieces of Broken Book 1)
This debut
book took me by surprise! And when I say I loved this book. I truly loved every
single word and was completely consumed and inspired. A mix of heartbreak and
sweet and sexy, Live Me had me yelling NOO!!! Then smirking “well done”.
Sara
V. Zook- Beautiful Rugged
This book
blew my freaking mind!! Using a storyline that is unique in its delivery,
Beautiful Rugged is a story that is a true forbidden romance and what happens
when life as you know it turns its back on you but you still have faith that
things will work out in the end!
Leisa
Rayven- Bad Romeo and Breaking Juliet
These two
books!! Oh My LANTA!! If I went back today and reread from the beginning I will
bet you I would be just as drawn in as the first day I started from page one. I
remember reading these books into the wee hours of the night, clutching my
blankets; white knuckled, hovering on the edge of dying to know what’s going to
happen next and relishing in the emotions I was feeling at the time. I never
was so mad at both main characters at two very different times in my life of
reading!! It was without a doubt one of the very, very best times of inhaling
all that is the words I live for!
M.
Mabie – The Wake Series
These books
are everything to me!! Bait broke me. Sail mended me back together, and Anchor made
it all worth it! The ultimate love story. Casey will forever be the best book
boyfriend in all the lands!! This trilogy starts as a forbidden romance that is
destined to be. Leading up to finding a way for life to be better and moving on
to finally getting it right. Giving me a completed story that is just
wonderful!!
Brittainy
C. Cherry – The Air He Breathes
I joke a
lot and say that if Brittainy made a shopping list, I would be just as
captivated reading it as I am when I read one of her books. But it really is
true. If I were to meet this amazing artist who happens to be an author I would
do a complete fan girl moment. There hasn’t been a book yet that didn’t
completely take hold of me and with the intent of making me think about nothing
but the words coming, the words that have been and the words that are.
Brittainy C. Cherry gets it right every single time!
Honorable Mention
These books touched me in some way that I could not leave them out! To me I call these the "sleepers". Out of no where they seep into your skin and make a permanent home within you.
Karen Ferry-
Make Me Believe
Kendall
Ryan- My Soul To Keep (Soul Series 1)
Olivia
Evans- Brooklyn & Beale
Alex Lucian-
Tempting (The Tempting Series 1)
