Goodreads Summary:
If you’re looking for a story about a good, humble girl, who’s been hurt by someone she thought she could trust, only to find out she’s not as vulnerable as she thought she was and discovers an empowering side of herself that falls in love with the guy who helps her find that self, blah, blah, blah...then you’re gonna’ hate my story.
Because mine is not the story you read every time you bend back the cover of the latest trend novel. It’s not the “I can do anything, now that I’ve found you/I’m misunderstood but one day you’ll find me irresistible because of it” tale. Why? Because, if I was being honest with you, I’m a complete witch. There’s nothing redeeming about me. I’m a friend using, drug abusing, sex addict from Los Angeles. I’m every girlfriend’s worst nightmare and every boy’s fantasy.
I’m Sophie Price...And this is the story about how I went from the world’s most envied girl to the girl no one wanted around and why I wouldn’t trade it for anything in the world.
What Made Me Swoon:
And just like that, Ian Aberdeen rushed me. He grabbed my face and neck with his rough hands and brought me to him, practically lifting me to his lips. He devoured my mouth with his and I moaned into his mouth, spurring him on. His tongue found mine and it was warm and tasted of cinnamon. A rush of adrenaline spiked through my body and pooled in my belly. I wrapped my arms around his neck and he brought me closer to him, threading his fingers through my hair, rooting his fists at the back of my head, pulling lightly as if it was taking all his control not to throw me down on the bed. This made my eyes roll into the back of my head and I tightened my already closed lids." (Nook, 116)
Ok, I have to be honest. I started reading VAIN but had to stop. I could not get into the story at all. I blame this on the book hangover that I had just before I started reading it.
ReplyDeleteIt is on my ereader waiting for me. I just have to find the good time to make sure it gets all the attention it deserves. I know that this book is PHENOMENAL. My friends have told me a lot of great things about it. I'll try again once i'm on vacation :)
Lindy ... Lindy ... Lindy ...
I got a really weird swoon this week. My first COUPLE SWOON. Yes, my swoon this week is about Remy and Brooke from REAL by Katy Evans
How can you not swoon with quotes like this ?!
Brooke:
“I love him, Melanie. I love him He's not just a star, he's the whole fucking sky to me. He's the sun and every planet in this galaxy.”
Remy:
“I'm every woman's adventure, damn you, and I don't want to be yours. I want to be your fucking REAL. You get that? If I fuck you, I want you to belong to me. To be mine. I want you to give yourself to me-not Riptide!”
OMG!!! I need to read it again!!! I loved it so much!!!! The sexual tension between these two is CALIENTE!!!!! I had to put down my ereader a couple of time and let out a ''WTF, this is intense ... Crap! That's hottttt!!!''
Miss Little Firecracker & Riptide will make you swoon GUARANTEED!!!!!
OMG! You're killing me Mikki!!!! I'm dying to read this book! I love your swoons! Especially Remy's! He sounds like my kind of guy. Ria and I were seriously arguing over our book boyfriend's. She says I can only have one book husband, and I told her that I have quite a few. LOL I have a feeling Remy is going to get added to my list! LOL
