The Deception (Filthy Rich Americans #3) By: Nikki Sloane

     Marist has been through hell to get to this place. to wear the prefect white dress and stand beside Royce Hale, the liar she tried desperately not to fall in love with and failed. 
      Or maybe she's still trapped in hell because the devil is there too. He lurks at Marist's side, plotting terrible ways to make her his. 
      It's win at all costs in this family, and Marist knows now just how far the Hales will go to get what they want. 
      But you can't survive in a house full of lies without learning the art of deception, and once Marist becomes a Hale, she'll show them exactly what she's mastered. 

     The final chapter in the Filthy Rich American series and it was well worth the wait. I could not put The Deception down. I wanted Royce and Marist to come out on top but that ending though, that ending was not one that I could have ever predicted. And that's exactly what you want with the end of a book/series that you really enjoy. You want an ending that you don't see coming, one that's not predicted to happen before you are even halfway through the story.

Breaking His Rules By: R.C. Matthews

     When Samantha landed the best bartending job in downtown Chicago, the rules were as clear as the Grey Goose martini she mixed for him. Don't sleep with the patrons. She had no problem with that. Money didn't impress her. But Damon Baxter's eyes did. Midnight blue, just like the name of his nightclub. The way they undressed her made Sam consider risking the most sought after job in the service industry. Nailing the position had been hard. Obeying the rules? Even harder.
     Good thing she liked it hard. Samantha was never one for following orders. For one night with him, she would have sold her soul to the devil. And that's exactly what she did. She offered him a single night of pleasure but when Damon demanded another in that deep and sexy whisper, what could she say? Damon is her boss and Samantha always aimed to please...when it pleased her.

     Breaking His Rules was definitely a book I enjoyed reading. What starts off as a one night stand between two strangers so turns into something more. Something that they both seemed to be need without ever realizing it was what they were looking for.

Heartbreak Prince (Broken Hearts Academy #1) By: C.R. Jane

     Soulmate. Everly believed in them. She was lucky enough to have two of them at once. The only problem. Her soulmates happened to be twin brothers.
     Caiden was the light to Jackson's dark. And after all that Everly has been through, the light was what she thought she needed.
     When she chose Caiden, she lost Jackson.
      Feeling like half a person after Jackson left, Everly barley survived when tragedy struck and she lost Caiden too. It took Everly years to admit it to herself that she had chosen wrong from the beginning. She's ready to admit it to Jackson...only problem, he hates her.
    Everly's ready to fight for her happily ever after. But there's a reason they call him the Heartbreak Prince.

     For some reason as much as I did not enjoy this read there was something that just made me unable to put Heartbreak Prince down. Even with me skipping around some of the pages I still kept reading. And now even after reading and saying all this I still want to continue on with this series and find out what happens next. So I guess that means C.R. Jane is doing something right.

Surviving HIs Scars (Angels Halo MC Next Gen #4) By: Terri Anne Browning

     Monroe has a secret. One that will get the man she's been crushing on for years killed if her father ever finds out. Her sister says he's a stalker - how else could he know exactly when Monroe's in trouble and come to rescue her? She doesn't care. He has saved Monroe over and over again, so she knows he doesn't want to harm her. And every time she gets so much as a glimpse of him, her heart becomes even more his.
     Everyone who hears his name instantly thinks of Gian as a monster. They don't know the real him. The one who hated the men who tried to make him just as evil as them. All Gian wanted was to burn their empire to the ground. Until he saw her. His precious one. Her family thinks he wanted to hurt her when all he wants is to protect her.
      The scars of Gian's past aren't pretty. They shroud him like a dark cloak, making him feel like the devil he's been cast as. It would taint her sweetness if he let them touch her. But when Monroe disappears on him, Gian can't hold back any longer.  

     I was excited to read Gian and Monroe's story after getting a glimpse of their relationship in Lyric and Mila's (Monroe's twin) story, Savoring Mila. Just like with her twin's story I was unable to put Surviving His Scars down. I managed to read the whole thing in one sitting and I have nothing bad to say about this story, other than the price. But that's mostly because I personally don’t like having to ever pay more than $3.99 for an ebook especially if the number of pages don't reflect the cost.

King of Campus (Barnet Bulldogs #1) By: Jennifer Sucevic

     Roan King.
     The uncrowned king of Barnet University. He's like a freaking celebrity around the University. It's totally ridiculous. People, by which grown women, actually stalk him on the internet. And around campus. Apparently he's god's gift to both football and the ladies. All he has to do is smile and girls just fall right onto their backs before spreading their legs nice and wide. Word is he's already plowed his way through half the female population at Barnet. He's sure to work his way through the second half before he gets drafted to the NFL later this year.
     Ivy doesn't plan to be one of them. Ivy sees Roan as nothing more than a conceited player. You know the type - a steroid infused meathead jock coasting through college on his football prowess.
     Ivy has three words for that - avoid, avoid, avoid.
     Then she had the misfortune of running into Roan on campus. Literally. As in - Ivy literally slammed into him before spilling her iced coffee drink all over that wide rippling chest. And what did she learn from this experience that Roan King is one hell of a cocky son of a -
     She also learned that he has the most specular chest...and don't get her started on those abs...she could probably cut diamonds on them.
     Unfortunately for Ivy, Operation Avoid Roan King isn't going so well. Everywhere she goes, there he is. If he wasn't so ridiculously hot, he would be a hell of a lot easier to forget. With his dark hair, shocking turquoise colored eyes and buff body, he's easily the most gorgeous guy Ivy has ever laid eyes on.
      As much as she wants to avoid Roan, she can't.

     When I first started reading King of Campus I was really into it but before I was even halfway through that opinion changed. I kept looking down to see how far into the story I was and I was nowhere near finished even when I wanted to be. But for some reason I went through with the whole story even when I wanted it to just be done.
