JUST ONE SPARK by Jenna Bayley-Burke

It took me a long time to read this book.  It took me a few months and I have now completed this book.  This is mostly in part because the book did not turn out the way I thought it would have and it bored me with its weirdness. Here is what I mean.

Hannah Daniels does not find it weird to sit and read an erotic book whilst waiting for her clothes to wash in a public laundry-mart.

Hannah was just getting to one of the good parts of her current book when a handsome stranger distracts her.  He was very handsome and she felt a connection the only thing that stopped her from liking him is the wedding ring on his finger.

Disgusted by him, Hannah quickly leaves the Laundry hoping to never see the lying bastard again.

Mason McNally cannot stop kicking himself for the major screw up with the girl of his dreams.  He was wearing a ring to help his brother with a study of his and she misunderstood. Needing to find her again, Mason looks high and low but cannot find her.

Would Mason find his dream girl and clear up the misunderstanding?  If he finds her would Hannah want anything to do with him?  Find out in this confusing and weird story of Just one Spark.

When I read the description of this book, it sounded like something like something that I would totally enjoy, but sadly it was not meant to be.

+Jenna Bayley-Burke tried to write a book about a girl who escapes into a book to escape reality, but did not quite make it.  There was hardly any mention of books and this made me sad.  Also the main character, Hannah, was a psycho. 

That sounds harsh, but it's true.  She takes everything that people say and twist it into making it sound bad.  She also has the uncanny ability to make things seem against her than with her.

Hannah has a bad habit of throwing herself at Mason and when the glow of sex is gone, accuses him of only coming over for sex.  I was like, WHAT, for most of the book.  This happened a lot in the book.  She claims she wants to get to know him, but when they start talking and he ask an uncomfortable question, she's ready to drop her clothes, have sex with him, and then blame it all on him.

She needs some serious help.  He accepts her, but she does not accept him? NO.  There is nothing bad about liking sex, it's just bad when you use it as a weapon and accuse the other person of what you yourself are doing in the relationship.  I think I gave too much away, but oh well.  I loved Mason, but Hannah needs to go and get some therapy before she can deserve Mason.  

The writing in this book was not constant.  The description of the book described Hannah one way and but in reading the book she was totally different.  I liked that it had book related content in the story, but I really wished that it had more of it.  I also did not like that they kept giving reference to past boyfriends without all the details and her parents did not seem like the monsters Hannah made them out to be.

All in all, Hannah needs a reality check and she also has to get over herself.  I seriously did not like Hannah, because everything was an attack from her.  One minute she's happy and the next she's vicious.  This book was a confusion of emotions and I hope you guys can keep up.

IT STARTED WITH A KISS by Marina Adair

Well well well! What do we have here with this story? Is it a love story, is it a trade or is it MURDER! I'm kidding, I'm kidding, there's no murder here. Avery Adams wants adventure. She wants to push herself outside the norm and experience life instead of just existing. This came about when she survived a kidney transplant that saved her life, but it's also a ticking time bomb that can explode at any time. With her resolve to experience life, Avery did the most logical thing and got a job as a guide in the local adventure lodge in her rustic Sierra Nevada Town. She was excited for her new job until reality slapped her in the face.  Instead of getting the training she needed in order to become a guide, she's stuck in the office, managing the business as best she can. What makes this situation worse is that the business is failing and the owner is so set in his ways that he refuses to change anything to fix it.  Frustrated with the way things were, hel

CRASH AND BURN by Rachel Lacey

This book was not the usual Rachel Lacey book and I should know, I've actually read all of them.  This is a story I've not read before and it puts to light what your brain thinks about when you think that you're about to die. Isa Delgado is terrified of flying and now she has to step foot into her first ever plane ride to help a rescue dog that only responds to her. The rescue is a husky dog named Maya who likes to run away when things get rough.  This does not help Isa with her fear of flying but the hunk who was her pilot might help matters a bit. Take off was not so bad and it relaxed Isa to see Maya calm during the flight.  Just when she thought that flying might not be so bad, everything goes horribly wrong. Nate lives to fly.  He's been flying for as long as he can remember. That's why he did not foresee any problems in flying a lady and her dog to their destination. Things don't go as planned when in the middle of their flight, shit hit the fa
