Synopsis:

Perfect Couple is #2 in the Superlatives series about seniors at a Florida high school who are selected for their class's superlative categories in the yearbook, and how the labels change the way they view themselves and alter the course of their lives.

Can your heart be put to a popular vote?

As yearbook photographer, Harper is responsible for capturing those candid moments that make high school memorable. But her own life is anything but picture perfect. Her parents' bitter divorce has left her wondering what a loving relationship would look like. And ever since the senior class voted her and star quarterback Brody the “Perfect Couple That Never Was,” her friends have been on her case to ask Brody out.

Brody doesn’t lack in female admirers, but Harper can't see herself with him. He seems confused about why they were matched together, too. They’re total opposites—the last people in the world who would ever be compatible, let alone the “perfect couple.” Yet ever since the class paired the two of them, they've found themselves drawn together--first by curiosity, then by an undeniable bond.

The trouble is, though they're very attracted to each other and both of them admit this, they have a hard time getting along or even communicating clearly. If they’re the perfect couple, this shouldn’t be so difficult! Soon it becomes clear their class was wrong, and they throw in the towel. But after they walk away, both of them feel so changed from making the effort that they can’t forget each other. What if that means this match made in hell is the perfect couple after all?

Happy New Year, Book Addicts!


Book Addicts! Happy New Year! I hope you had as much fun I had celebrating the transition to 2015 and I hope this year comes filled with happiness and books for you all.

So I was thinking about doing a quick re-cap of the last thing I did on 2014 and the first thing I did on 2015 and I would love to hear from you, too. You can leave all the answers in the comments section. So here we go...

I remember it like it was last night... Sorry, I promise to leave the bad jokes out of this post from now on. I was getting ready for a party I was going after having dinner with the family to celebrate with some friends the 2015 and what a better way to get into the mood than with Taylor Swift? Oh yes. My mirror watched me sang a few times Shake it Off before welcoming the 2015.


As for the first song in 2015, it was actually going to the mentioned party, in my car, and it was Best Day of My Life by American Authors.



I think this is a question filled with emotion, since the last book I read in 2014 was Until The End by Abbi Glines and it's the end of the Sea Breeze series and it was just so beautiful, so great... that if it wasn't for that mind-blowing ending I would be ugly crying even now.

As for the first book I'm reading, and I say reading 'cause guys I didn't have time to finish any book yet with having to deal with the next-day-after-a-party/hangover, would be The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer by Michelle Hodkin. It was a christmas gift from me, to.. well, me, and I've read a lot of great reviews and people fangirling over the boys in this book, so it's time to give it a try to this series. 



This is an easy one. The last show I watched was The 100. OMG! Did you see the last episode?! As for the first show I watched this year I would have to say The Originals. I have to catch up on the last episodes and I started today :)



"Ugh... I'm so hungry... I need to blog about this."



Okay guys, so this is it. Just let me know all your answers in the comments if you want and if you have some time ;) Also a quick reminder that there are some giveaways on my site still going on, including the huge Christmas Giveaway. And I have new challenges this year that you can check out on this post: 2015 Challenges. 




Cover Reveal: The Allure Chronicles by Alyssa Rose Ivy


I'm thrilled to bring you this dual Cover Reveal for Alyssa Rose Ivy's SEDUCTION'S KISS and LURE!! SEDUCTION’S KISS is a prequel novella releasing January 29th, and LURE is the first book in her new series, The Allure Chronicles. LURE is a New Adult Paranormal Romance that will be releasing February 16th! Check out the synopses for these awesome new books and the gorgeous covers designed by Mae I Designs!


Synopsis:

Never agree to a road trip to New Orleans with your roommate. At least not when your roommate is dragging you along while she reconnects with an ex-boyfriend. Possible consequences of failing to take my advice:

1) Unknowingly going out with a vampire stripper
2) Getting kidnapped by said vampire's nest mates
3) Falling head over heels for your winged hero

Believe it or not number 3 is the worst one, especially when no one believes you that he exists.

*Prequel novella to Lure (The Allure Chronicles #1)*


LURE
Release Date: February 16th 2015

Synopsis:

There's danger in the beauty...

Two years, six months, and twenty-five days. That's how long it had been since I'd seen my winged hero— not that I'd been counting. I'd suffered through years of counseling just to convince my friends and family that I wasn't crazy and knew he didn't exist.

But he did. And I was done waiting.

Days after college graduation I headed back down to New Orleans to retrace my steps and find Owen again only to find my life was about to get even crazier... thanks to the most beautiful and dangerous of all paranormal creatures, the Allures.
