✯Review✯All We Were (The Ex-Factor #1) by Elisabeth Grace & Michelle Lynn

Blurb
Will I ever stop hurting the one person who’s never hurt me?

I’ve done things I can never undo.

No matter how much I wish I could, sometimes the wounds I inflict are too deep, too catastrophic, too septic to heal.

As I look into the eyes of the only man I’ve ever loved I know I’ve gone too far. I’ve finally crossed the line.

Even if he knew my reason for doing this, he’d never forgive me.

He always puts my needs before his own.

Now it’s my turn to protect him.

None of that matters though because the betrayal and disgust in his eyes comes from deep within his soul. There’s no coming back from this.

He will forever be tormented by what he’s seen, and he will never forgive me.

The last fragment of my heart to hold out hope that we’d share a future, withers and dies.
 



✯✯5 Tragic Stars!!!✯✯

OMG!!!! I can see this as a Lifetime movie. I have been waiting forever for another Michelle Lynn book. Her and Elisabeth Grace write together under a pen name but haven’t gotten a chance to check them out. After reading this I can kick myself for not reading them. 

Jimmy didn’t have an easy childhood. His father was abusive and his mom left the first chance she got and never looked back. The best thing in his life is his best friend Lilah. He wanted a better life for them both. First chance he got they packed up and drove to Hollywood. Jimmy swore they’d have a better life. 

Jimmy has made a name in Hollywood. He’s getting ready to start filming his next movie. This movie is promising to be a blockbuster hit and make him a household name. There’s only one problem and that’s Lilah. She’s a hot mess. His best friend, agent and everybody keeps telling him to finally cut the umbilical cord that connects them. 

But, Jimmy can’t do that. He’s not sure where he ends and she begins. He’ll continue cleaning up her messes no matter how bad they are. Jimmy just wishes their relationship will go from just benefits to forever. 

Lilah couldn’t wait to move away from the mountains. Unfortunately, the mountains never left her. Lilah has demons that it doesn’t matter how far away she moves they’ll always be right there. In order to cope with her past Lilah will take whatever she can get her hands on in order to numb the pain. 

Lilah knows who and what she is. No matter how many times Jimmy asks and begs her to be his she can’t say yes. She’ll never love anybody the way she loves him. No matter what she does he’s always there to help clean up her mess. No questions asked. 

Until he had enough and she was on her own. When she tried letting him go he was back to help her. Lilah finally realized there was more to life than partying, boozing and everything else. She wanted her modeling career and more importantly she wanted a life with Jimmy. Until their past comes knocking on their door. Lilah is asking herself  a question. Does she think/save of only herself first and loose Jimmy for good or do the right thing and Jimmy loose everything. 

OMG I couldn’t put this down once I started it!!! I wanted to hug/smack/shake both Jimmy and Lilah throughout the whole book!!! These two were so close and cared so much about each other that they couldn’t survive without the other. Even if walking away might’ve been what was best for them. They couldn’t do it. For them the universe refused to align up perfect for them to have their own HEA. After the ending my fingers are crossed they get it. Bc, if anybody deserves it it’s Lilah and Jimmy. And, screw all the haters!!

✯Cover Reveal w/Giveaway✯Luna Caged Part One: Behind the Wall(Luna Caged Duet #1)by Margaret McHeyzer




Title: Luna Caged Part One: Behind the Wall
Series: Luna Caged Duet #1
Author: Margaret McHeyzer
Genre: YA/Cult
Cover Design: Book Cover by Design
 Release Date: TBD



Blurb

I often stare at the walls and wonder what’s beyond them.
The Elders tell me that nothing but sin, sadness, and disease lie beyond the wall.
Sometimes I hear things, noises that are strange to me. They’re often faint, and when I ask the Elders what those sounds are, they tell me they are the tortured souls of thousands of people behind the gates of hell. I don’t know what they mean.
I dream of leaving these walls, but the Elders insist this is the only place we’re safe. They talk about danger, hatred, and the devil himself waiting just beyond. They tell us the walls were built to keep us safe.
Although I believe the Elders, I want to see the outside world for myself.
But there’s no way out.
Or so I thought...






Excerpt

He grabs the back of my neck, squeezes, and pulls me along to the bath. He dunks my head into the water, I try to scream and fight him. As I inhale, I take in water, unable to catch my breath because my head is held under.

He lifts my head, and I try to suck air into my lungs. “Stop!” I manage to splutter.

The voice plays in the background. “We are your family. Beyond the wall is death. Beyond the wall is evil. You will die if you leave. Only we can protect you.”

He dunks my head straight under the water again. I barely have the chance to get air into my lungs. I’m trying to fight him, clawing at his arms to let me up. I try to scream again, but I’m only taking in more water. My body is in agony, my chest is exploding with fire and sizzling pain.

He lifts my head, leans down and whispers, “We are your family. Beyond the wall is death. Beyond the wall is evil. You will die if you leave. Only we can protect you.”

“No, you’re not! Family doesn’t do this.”

He chuckles, then adds, “You’re a hard one to break.” Then quickly submerges my head again under the water. I try to fight him again. But I feel his other hand come up to the back of my head, holding me under.

The words are loud, and I can still hear them. But the panic inside my body is enough to fuel me to hold strong. “We are (not) your family. Beyond the wall is (life not) death. Beyond the wall is (good and not) evil. You will die (live) if you leave. Only we can (won’t) protect you.”

He lifts my head. I try to breathe in, knowing what he’s going to continue doing. I save my words and strength, it’s no use fighting with him. Not when he’s got control over me just by his mere size and power.






Author Bio

STRONG, BRAVE AND COURAGEOUS CHARACTERS.

**Write something worth reading**

I'm Margaret and I'm a self-published author.

Recently I was fortunate in obtaining New York Times best-selling status on my YA/NA book - Ugly, and my YA book - Mistrust.

My last six books have been YA and I'm completely in love with the genre. I love being able to communicate with people through my words and stories.

My writing genres all differ, but the one thing I keep consistent is my heroines. All my female lead characters are strong, gutsy and not the 'perfect' woman. While my books all have romantic elements in them, they aren't just about the romance. They're about finding strength, acceptance and making life long connections.

I hope you enjoy my stories as much as I have while writing them.

Wake had lived in fear for far too long. Life hadn’t been easy for him. Every day he resisted his natural instincts to claim the one female meant for him. An event from his past stopped him in his tracks every time his primal urges pushed him toward her.
Paige accepted the role she played in Wake’s life. She was the one he wanted but never allowed himself to have. But when someone else showed interest in her, Wake had to decide once and for all.
Putting his heart on the line left the shifter vulnerable, something he never wanted to be again. And just when he gave in to his instincts, fate dealt the pair a cruel hand.
Nightmares came true, causing Paige to flee to the only place she felt safe—in the arms of Wake.
Pack life wasn’t an easy life, but Paige wouldn’t give up the man who held her heart. Only together could the two move forward and find the happiness they both deserved.
