ORIGIN Cover Reveal By Jennifer Armentrout!!!!

ORIGIN official Blurb:
Daemon will do anything to get Katy back.
After the successful but disastrous raid on Mount Weather, he’s facing the impossible. Katy is gone. Taken. Everything becomes about finding her. Taking out anyone who stands in his way? Done. Burning down the whole world to save her? Gladly. Exposing his alien race to the world? With pleasure.

All Katy can do is survive.

Surrounded by enemies, the only way she can come out of this is to adapt. After all, there are sides of Daedalus that don’t seem entirely crazy, but the group’s goals are frightening and the truths they speak even more disturbing. Who are the real bad guys? Daedalus? Mankind? Or the Luxen?

Together, they can face anything.  

But the most dangerous foe has been there all along, and when the truths are exposed and the lies come crumbling down, which side will Daemon and Katy be standing on? And will they even be together?

Forgotten By Sarah Pepper

The story sounded interesting and different; however, after 150 pages, I was unable to finish the book. Though the story started with some action, enough to pull the reader in, that was about it. Winnie started to become annoying since her character didn't change at all throughout the story.  She kept playing "hard-to-get" with Jase, though she was more than willing in her dreams. She also treats her best friend, Bree, like crap. No wonder Ryker treats her so badly. Anyway, the story was very slow, nothing changed between the second chapter and wherever I left-off. Maybe it would have improved if I finished the story.

Die for Her by Amy Plum

Of all the POVs I've read, this was my fav!! I loved the way it spanned over book 1 and 2 in the trilogy and left off moments after Vincent spoke to Kate. Loved seeing Vincent thru Jules's perspective; it gave more depth into how he suffered without Kate.

The best part was seeing Jules character grow. he started off as a "player" and by the end of the book he felt the both the joy and sorrow by falling in love with kate.

As always, the book was beautifully written. the reader can visualize Paris, see kate's beauty as Vincent and jules see her and also feel jules pain when he realizes he's fallen in love with her.  only Amy can write a book that's a pleasure to read.

Undeclared by Jen Frederick

This was a feel-good, happily-ever-after book. I enjoyed how each chapter started off with one of their letters and how the story bounced between Grace and Noah point of views. It shows just how different male/female perspectives can be.
If you're looking for a feel good contemporary romance book, I recommend Undeclared.

Beyond the Sun by Sandra Bischoff

Wow! I really enjoyed this book and Ms Bischoff has become one of my fav authors!
Ms. Bischoff hits a home run in her debut novel!
The story was so beautifully written that I was hooked in the first chapter - but who wouldn't when the suspense starts in the first few paragraphs! It doesn't stop there...there's also action, comedy (Thanks to Lance!) of course there's the paranormal and slight touch of romance. What's not to love :)
Though there's a great deal of character building, the story doesn't slow or falter like it usually does in the first book of a series. There were so many twists and turns but yet the story flowed so nicely. Loved how the story ended, leaving the perfect starting point for the second book - I was sitting on the edge of my chair wanting to know more!!
I would have liked to seen more interaction and relationship building between Alex and Jared, the main characters. 
I highly recommend this book to those who love paranormal stories!

Death Lies Between Us by Jody A. Kessler

I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review

I thought the book started a little slow while building the characters and storyline, but usually the first book in a series is slow.  Though the story itself is very unique, in my experience, a combination of Native American mythology/folklore, a religious undertone, a twist of paranormal, and lastly romance.  I would have liked to see more interaction between Juliana and Nathan and more focus on their relationship.  I loved how the story bounced between Juliana and Nathan's point of view, giving the reader a different perspective. 

There were a few things that were left open in this book, but unsure if this was intentional for the second book or left for our interpretation.

The odd thing about this book, is the reader is wanting and cheering for Juliana and Nathan; but he's dead! He's the Angel of Death...WTH!!

And the end...never saw that coming!
