         I'll admit that it was the cover got me interested enough to look into this book. When I first read the sample of this book I was a little unsure of how this book was going to go and if I was even going to enjoy this book. But I'm glad to say that I did continue reading this book and enjoy reading it. Therefore I would recommend others to read it and see what this book is all about.

Now America and Maxon's daughter Eadlyn is in her own Selection and has to chose one of thirty-five men to be her husband. Eadlyn has always heard the stories of how her mother and father met and has see the love that the two have for one another she just doesn't believe that she will find that same love in her own Selection. Eadlyn try as she might couldn't stop her own Selection from happening even though she rather not have one happen at all but as the competition goes on and fewer guys are left Eadlyn cannot help but begin to let her heart open a bit to these guys.
     I did enjoy this story although I don't think that I enjoyed it as much as the original. This has to do with considering at the end of the book I was still so confused as to how many Selected where still left in the competition and what their names were. But that being said I will continue on with this series and I enjoy waiting for the next book to come out.

That is until the day she comes face to face with him, a man forever damaged by the mistakes of her father and makes it her mission to help him.
    Caine Carraway wants nothing to do with Alexa and her endless efforts of redemption. When given the opportunity to make Alexa his personal assistant Caine does everything he can to make Alexa hate him, to drive Alexa away from him instead of towards him. But with all of his efforts all Caine does is make Alexa try harder and bring the two closer together and they soon begin to have an intense and passionate affair.
    There's only one problem with this affair. Caine knows that he can never be the white knight that Alexa needs and pushes her away because of it every time the two get too close. All Alexa wants is Caine the rest she doesn't care about.
    This book really got me back into liking Young's books again. I managed to read this whole book in a day because I just couldn't put it down and although it kind of lagged towards the end for the most part this book was good and definitely a book that I would recommend people read.

   This book is only part 1 of a series and is a quick read. Although I did finish reading this book I will not be continuing on with the rest of this series. The story was good but about halfway through it lost it's spunk and I just lost my interest from there.

Tool By: Sabrina Pagie

Now Delaney is back home after just graduating from college and is going to start working at her dad's company. The first time Delaney sees Gaige in four years he is in his underwear surrounded by three gorgeous blondes in lingerie. 
        Gaige O'Neal is a reckless motorcycle rider and he is even more reckless with the women he is with. He is nicknamed "Tool" because of what he is packing underneath but Delaney calls him a Tool for being such a d**k. Gaige injured his leg in a riding accident so for the time being he cannot race which means that Delaney is stuck in a house with him. And as much as she wants nothing to do with him Delaney can't stop having all those thoughts and feelings that she had for Gaige all those years ago come back to the surface. When her father informs her that she will be traveling to Tokyo with Gaige as his babysitter all bets are off for these two.
        I would say that I enjoyed reading this book, although it was not one of my all time favorites it was a book that I did enjoy reading and will read again. With that being said read this book if you want but do not go out of your way to read it.

Bro By: Joanna Blake

(N)  Nevada did not have the easiest time growing up. Nevada is the daughter of Westfield's head housekeeper. No one ever really paid attention to Nevada seeing as how she was the daughter of the help in a school where everyone else was rich. Nevada has been away from home during her first year of college and is coming back a different girl. Before she left no one looked twice at her but while away at college she grew into herself and became someone that all the guys wanted. But Nevada only ever wanted one guy in particular, Clayton Westfield who Nevada has been crushing on for years.
       With Nevada's mother being the head housekeeper for Clayton's family the two have grown up together. Clayton is the guy who can get any girl he wants and is completely full of himself. Clayton never thought much of Nevada but all that changed when he came home from college for the summer and laid eyes on Nevada, now he cannot get her out of mind.
       It was not until after I read this book that I saw all of the mixed reviews that it got. Some people loved the book while others said that although it had potential it just did not do it for them. I for one have to say that I did enjoy this book and would read it again. But there was one thing that I did have a problem with with this book.  While looking into this book I saw that it was supposed to be over three hundreds pages and either that was a total misgiving and this book is actually a quick read. Or I was that into it that I read all three hundred pages in one sitting without even paying attention to how much I was actually until the book was almost over. Whatever the case this is definitely a book that I would recommend.
