Sometimes in life....

Things were supposed to get better when Ryan met Lili. I was supposed to move on, get a life... but I'm stuck and lost. Things with my father are not good. There are demons in our closet, big ones. Ones I want to kill him for, I'm seeing a shrink, I'm trying to get better... but my life feels out of control, like I'm a raft adrift on the sea. I don't know where to look, how to get anchored again, and then I meet Zoe Stone. Something about her draws me out of my rut, makes me laugh for real, smile, and for the first time in years I want to be more. But what will she think when she discovers who I really am?

...all we have...

When Alexander Donovan, aka The Golden Adonis, walks into my tattoo parlor, I know I'll do anything to make that man mine. There's an instant connection, a need to know more about him. Everything about him. But there's also a mystery surrounding the guy, when people look at him they only see the man that laughs, that cracks jokes and makes the world think that everything's okay, but I see the truth... I see the darkness that lurks so deep inside few would ever recognize it. I want to help him, I want to be with him, now I just have to make him trust me enough to let me in.

Is Right Now


I leaned my head back and thought about the boy who was no longer really a boy.
Alex was a man.
And a tall, really tall, one at that.
The moment I’d seen him walk through the door, my heart had constricted. Painfully. It’d taken me a second to catch my breath. I’d dreamed about him all through high school, watched as he took one girl after another out around town.
I doubted he remembered the girl working the popcorn counter at the theater, but every weekend there was always a new girl on his arm, a new girl kissing him and rubbing her horny little body all over his, and it was a miracle my teeth had not become filed points as much as I’d ground them together.
And maybe it shouldn't surprise me that he didn't have a clue who I was; I no longer looked even remotely similar to the girl who’d graduated valedictorian of J.J. Baines High.
My fingers twitched as I remembered the feel of his body in my fist. He was big, and so damn hard my thighs had trembled.
Fire and static and electricity and whatever other chemical combustion had detonated inside me. I’d gone from zero to horny in two seconds the moment he’d walked in.
His hair had glinted so many different shades of blond, from white to burnished bronze, and all I wanted to do was touch it, run my fingers through it, wondering all the while if it was as soft as it'd looked. 
One look into eyes that made me think of a sky right after a storm and I could no longer control myself.

My Thoughts:

I just want to make it clear for those of you who read this is that this book is Book #2. But its a stand alone book. If you miss the first book like I have you wont miss a thing. With how this book turned out I'm definitely motivated to checking out the first book and seeing what this author writes next.  

It all started with a fortune cookie: Be Opposite. Alex did something he wouldn't normally do he went into a tattoo/piercing shop wanting something different. It was there that he met Zoey. The attraction was instant and all Alex knew was that he wanted her.

Zoey didn't expect to see her old high school crush to walk into the shop that day. Its like when he walked all those feeling she once had came rushing back and he was a highschool girl again. The thing is he doesnt remember and knows that if she give into the attraction they both have she'll be devistated if it doesnt turn out right. She already had her heart broken from the last guy and is unwilling to have her heart broken again.

It was easy to get hooked onto this book. I loved how Zoey was caring and understanding. I liked that she stood up for herself even to her parents, she wasn't a pushover  I liked how supportive she was to Alex. I liked that she trusted him enough that she was able to get over his little antics knowing that there was more to Alex then what he was telling. I really liked Zoey's friend, Jamie, shes a great friend, who will help Zoey and tell her like it is. I liked that  I got the point of view from Zoey and Alex. It helped me understand and enjoy the characters more. If I didn't get to know Alex and what he was thinking I probably would've hated his character before his secret was revealed which I was suprised with.  I loved the connection between Zoey and Alex. I loved the ending of the book and how it felt like everything was complete. 

So I'm not quite sure if theres a third book in the Moments series but if there is I'm going to guess that the main characters would be Thor and Jamie. Or at least I'm hoping it will be about them I want to see what's going on with them. 

Overall I loved the book and highly recommend you lovely readers to check it out! 5 of 5 stars!
