I just started reading Faking It. It's so good that I don't want to stop reading but unfortunately I need at least a few hours of sleep.

"He kissed like he lived—perfectly. His mouth searched mine feverishly and thoroughly, like he needed to taste every part of me. Oh how I had underestimated tender kisses. This kiss was a slow burn that had me squirming against him, ready to beg for more. He placed a light peck on my mouth, and then nipped my bottom lip. His mouth pressed harder against mine, and the kiss crescendoed into something fierce and addicting." SWOON #YABound

This week I had to chose a teaser from Frigid. I really liked this one plus the added thriller aspect of the book made it even better.

"His lips brushed mine once, and then twice. I sucked in a sharp breath and my hands fell to his waist. A deep sound emanated from him, and it rumbled through every part of me, eliciting a series of shivers that skated over my skin. The pressure against my lips increased and his hands slid off my cheeks, delving deep into my hair. He slanted his mouth as he tipped my head back, his teeth tugging on my lower lip, coaxing my mouth to open." SWOON #YABound

Most Anticipated (37)


Frigid (Frigid, #1)

My Most Anticipated Release of the Week is...Frigid. I'll pretty much read anything by J Lynn/Jennifer L. Armentrout. After I read the teaser chapters she released I was already hooked. I just wanted to know what happened next with Sydney and Kyler. Since this one is releasing early it's definitely  my most anticipated read this week. 

Summary:
For twenty-one-year-old Sydney, being in love with Kyler isn't anything new. They'd been best friends ever since he pushed her down on the playground and she made him eat a mud pie. Somewhere over the years, she fell for him and fell hard. The big problem with that? Kyler puts the 'man' in man-whore. He's never stayed with a girl longer than a few nights, and with it being their last year in college, Syd doesn't want to risk their friendship by declaring her love.

Kyler has always put Syd on a pedestal that was too high for him to reach. To him, she's perfect and she's everything. But the feelings he has for her, he's always hidden away or focused on any other female. After all, Kyler will always be the poor boy from the wrong side of tracks, and Syd will always be the one girl he can never have.

But when they're stranded together at a posh ski resort due to a massive Nor'easter, there's nothing stopping their red-hot feelings for each other from coming to the surface. Can their friendship survive the attraction? Better yet, can they survive at all? Because as the snow falls, someone is stalking them, and this ski trip may be a life-changer in more ways than one.(Goodreads)
Frigid (Frigid #1) J.Lynn. Expected Publication: July 15, 2013; Spencer Hill Contemporary.

My teaser comes from the book I just finished reading, Blessed Tragedy. It was a free New Adult read on Amazon and it sounded interesting so I had o check it out. It was pretty good!
Blessed Tragedy (Blessed Tragedy, #1)
Madeline Grace Neumann died graduation night when I climbed into my 1977 Chevy Malibu determined to live my life on my own terms. I wasn't looking forward to resurrecting her as we drove down the Interstate. By the time we pulled off at Lexington, Rain Maxwell would be shoved in a box and the pretty, polished Maddie Neumann would walk off the bus I've called home for the past five months.

That's my teaser. What book(s) are you teasing?



Most Anticipated (35)


Facade (Games, #2)

This week my Most Anticipated Release of the Week is...Facade. I loved the first book in the Game series by Nyrae Dawn. I couldn't help but be drawn in by Cole and Cheyenne.  They are such complex characters and I found myself devouring Charade just to learn more about them and why they are they way they are. While reading Charade we are introduced to Adrian and I was definitely intrigued by him. I can't wait to read his story and unravel some of the mystery that is Adrian. I can't wait to get my hands on this New Adult read.

Summary:

Can love save them?

After her father commits a crime that shatters her family, eighteen-year-old Delaney Cross is tired of pretending everything is all right. Packing up her car, she sets out to find the people her father hurt. Her search leads her to places she’s never been—and into the arms of Adrian Westfall.

To the outside world, Adrian is a sexy, charming ladies’ man. But his playboy persona is just an act. Secretly his soul is tortured by a memory too painful to share. Only Delaney seems to see through his façade to the real man underneath. And for the first time in his life, Adrian feels he can begin to open up about his past.

Together, Adrian and Delaney share a passionate love they never expected to find. Yet both still harbor their own secrets. When the dark truth is finally revealed, will it bring them closer together—or tear them apart forever?
Facade(Games #2), Nyrae Dawn. Expected Publication: July 2, 2013; Forever. Kindle Edition 304 pgs.
