Rebellious And Reckless (Campus Hotshots #1) By: Michelle Valentine


      Sky Cold knows exactly what she wants, and its Luke Finnegan, the college campus star quarterback. The only problem is she's not even a blip on his radar. In order to get noticed by her crush, she's willing to exchange the extra bedroom in her apartment to Luke's tattooed, older brother to find a way into his social circle. 
      Baker Finnegan is determined to get out of his father's shadow and do things his way. When he falls on hard times, and the sexy, slightly nerdy co-ed Sky offers him a place to live in exchange for a fake friendship, he can't pass up the opportunity. But when Baker quickly realizes the only match he wants to make for Sky is one with himself, he has to convince her to look past his reckless ways. 

      I enjoyed reading the first half of Rebellious and Reckless but by the time the second half of the book came around I wasn't as interested. I don't know what it was, I thought I was going to love this book and want to read it over and over again but then it was like what happened? It was almost like there was more included in this book that needed to be there.

What If You By: Sandi Lynn

 

        Everly has lived her life as low key as possible. Her childhood wasn't easy, and relationships never worked out, so she stopped trying. She accepted the fact that she would more than likely grow old alone, and she was okay with that. The more men got to know her, the faster they ran. Then she met Asher Remington under unusual circumstances. For him, it was unusual, but for Everly, it was the norm. Everly was sent to New York to convince him not to go through with a merger that would end up destroying him and the company his father worked so hard to build. He thought she was crazy until he discovered the truth. Everly's job was complete, and she needed to forget about him. But after spending one beautiful night together, it became impossible. The more time they spent together, the harder she fell. He was living in the shadow of a lie, only he didn't know it. If they were to have a chance together, he needed to know the truth, and he needed to put the past to rest.
       Everly King was crazy. She was the craziest yet most beautiful woman Asher had ever laid eyes on. They met under very unusual circumstances. She saved him from making what would have been the most destructive decision of Asher's life. He owed her. After spending one night with her. Asher craved more. Even though there were things about her that frightened him, Asher didn't want to stop seeing her. Then he let his guard down and feelings emerged. Asher couldn't allow it, and he needed to stick by the decision he had made several years ago after an incident determined the course of his life. He needed to forget about her and let her go. There was no "us" and there never would be. The problem was the fear he had inside was giving in and it tried to reason with Asher. It kept asking the same thing over and over: what if you.... 

       I always love whenever Sandi Lynn comes out with a new book because more often than not I find myself unable to put her books down and that's exactly what happened here. It's funny given the synopsis of What If You, I didn't think I was going to enjoy this read and only gave it a try because of who the author was. Well, color me surprised when I found myself not only enjoying this book but being unable to put it down and finishing it in practically one sitting.

      I have had Signed in my to-read list for far too long, longer than I care to admit. Now having finally got around to reading Signed, I was surprised with how much I did find myself enjoying this book. Did I enjoy it enough to continue on with the series? Not really, but would I read this book again? I would, so I guess that's something for a book I got for free a long time ago and am only now reading.
