Laura’s 2014 List of Must Reads

Posted January 10, 2015 by Laura in Promotional, Reviews / 0 Comments

 

I only see 40 five stars listed on the blog but I know the number is larger than that. The problem is I had to make things hard for myself by not using Goodreads like I should so I had to go through all of my blog posts for the year looking for the 5 stars. That being said I have a new Goodreads and my resolution is to use it religiously.

I am so grateful to be a part of the blogging world and get to work with these amazing authors. Most of the books listed were read and reviewed for tours. I love discovering new authors and new books through the process of blogging. I hope to share some of the amazing finds with you.

There is no way I could narrow a list down to my top 5 or 10 I know we have tried several times and it never worked out. I narrowed the 40 down to 15 and to make it easier a bunch are series so I’ll list those together.

Just click the title to get to Amazon.

Because of Ellison by MS Willis

The title of my review for this book was 5+ stars loved,loved,loved every heart shattering second. You may have seen my gush over this book more than once because it is one of my favorites. Not just for 2014 but all time favorites. If you love what the author calls fluff and I call heart crushing books you will love this book.

King Tomb by Scarlett Dawn

All I have to say is THANK YOU STEPHANIE for introducing me to this series and Scarlett Dawn. Oh and if you have not read the series yet DROP EVERYTHING and read in now.

Phenomenal X by Michelle Valentine

Phenomenal X got 5 freaking fabulous stars from me. I loved the chemistry between Xavier and Anna. The book is romantic, sexy, suspenseful, and at times heartbreaking.

Stage Dive Series by Kylie Scott

I was recovering from surgery and Stephanie told me to read these and I did nothing but sit and read these back to back. I devoured them. It was almost impossible to put the books down.

The men of stage dive are all hot and each one has their own personality traits that make you hate them at times but mostly make you love them love them.

Stephanie and I each have our favorite Stage Dive man grab the series and chose yours.

Unlovable Series by Lynetta Halat

Used Freed

I love Denver, Greer, and Randsom. What I like best about these two books is the transformation of Denver from a scared insecure girl to a magnificent woman. There is some sexiness happening in both books. But Randson in Freed is like panty combusting.

The Fault In Our Stars by John Green

tfios

There are only three books that I have ever read that whenever I think about them I get emotional. Those books are Because of Ellison by MS Willis, Every Rose by Lynetta Halat, and this book.  I loved the dialog in this book and I fell in love with the characters. I read this in paperback and there are countless tags marking all of my favorite parts. However this book made me UGLY cry.

Afraid to Fall

atf

I ADORE W Ferraro and everything she has ever written. She is so talented and if you ask me everyone should read everything she has ever written.  But let’s talk about Afraid to Fall for now.

W Ferraro made me laugh, smile, yell, and cry. Gage is an amazing man but there are many many times in this book that his stubbornness and mouth made me want to hit him or climb into the story to give him a piece of my mind. Delaney is the most forgiving and understanding woman ever. There is more than one time she forgave Gage when I would have told him to stuff it. You have to read this story to go on this emotional journey with them.

Vengeance is Mine

vim

This made the list because it is a unique story with lots of suspense and it is one of the few books I have read in a single day.

Beck by Harper Sloan

beck

Sooo… if you didn’t know I sort of love Harper Sloan. It’s true I accidently told her hehe.

The compete Corpse security series was amazing but Beck has to be my favorite out of them all. The relationship and his willingness to fight for it despite what everyone else things is so special. And there are parts of this book that are just heartbreaking and scenes that will remain with me forever.

Rock Falls Series  by Anne Jolin

CHASING RHODES amazon fronthenleybennett

       Chasing Rhodes                     Choosing Henley              Breaking Bennett

I have five stared every single one of these books. This series is full of HOT tattooed men and a group of strong amazing women. Anne knows hot to tell a story. If you haven’t read these get them today Butthead ;).
