Book Review: Mismatched - Elle Casey & Amanda McKeon

Book: Mismatched

Authors: Elle Casey & Amanda McKeon

Book Synopsis:

Former college roommates Erin and Ridlee leave Boston for Ireland to track down an inheritance, and end up at a matchmaking festival in Lisdoonvarna.... Ridlee's a newly minted attorney, and Erin's part owner of the Pot O' Gold Pub, hoping to buy out her new, mysterious partner, some old Irish guy she'd never heard of before the reading of her late grandmother's will. It seemed like it would be an easy thing to do: show up, find the bloke, and make him an offer… But the magic that is Ireland and the people who speak the lilting Irish brogue are as unpredictable as the weather, and things get a little more complicated than the girls anticipated when the town's legendary matchmaker pulls out his leather-bound book and proposes two matches…

Book Review: 

First, I just want to say that after I finished this book I found myself talking with an Irish lilt. That's very important, considering I spent half an hour calling my sister a " wee lass". 

Mismatched is a love story filled with humor, romance, and all that legal mumbo jumbo I can't wrap my head around any way. The first lines caught my attention from the very beginning, and at times I found myself tearing through the book with a fierce need to know what happened next.  Our main characters Erin and Ridlee are a laugh riot duo with great personalities, and I found myself finding ways to connect with the two of them. Our male leads were adorable and I may have found myself crushing on them just a tad. With a very original storyline infused romance, humor, and great characters, mismatched is a great read.

However, there were times in the beginning where I found myself becoming somewhat bored since the plot hadn't really picked up, but when it did pick up I was quite pleased. I'm hoping there will be a part two, they've left me wanting more. 

Favorite Quotes: 

"THEY SAY THE GOOD DIE young. So, it’s really no surprise that my grandmother, or rather Margaret as she preferred me to call her, lived to the ripe old age of ninety-odd."

"How that man found it within his heart to ask me out when I sat across from him looking like a deranged circus clown, I’ll never know. Maybe he needs glasses. Either that or he’s the nicest man alive and I should probably propose to him before someone else snatches him up."

"I’m only staying out here for five minutes, max. My tits are freezing. My nipples are going to break right off.”

"“I guess I might be afraid that I’ll love him and he won’t love me back.” “Wouldn’t it suck worse to have him love you back and you never find out about it?”

Don't Make Me Beautiful - Elle Casey Review

Book: Don't Make Me Beautiful

Author: Elle Casey

Genre: Romance, New Adult; Suspense; Drama

Book Synopsis:

A ROMANTIC SUSPENSE NOVEL. No one knew a woman lived there or that she even existed. A monster, living in darkness...

At twenty-two, Nicole doesn't even look human anymore. The beast made sure of that. So she hides. A monster, consigned to a life of fear and solitude. This is all she deserves, she is quite sure of that.

And then one day out of the blue, the autographed baseball caught by Brian Jensen at the latest Marlins game enters her prison and manages to turn her world completely upside down.

Temptation comes in the form of pity at first, and then perhaps something more. Does she dare to believe the things she's told, that this is not the life she was meant to live? That being a monster is not her forever-fate? And will she be willing to risk everything, to reach out and accept the helping hands around her and share her deepest, darkest secrets? She knows only too well that hands can hurt. Finding out whether they can also heal is a risky proposition, especially when the beast is still out there. Looking for her

Book Review:

Elle Casey had done it again. That was seriously the first thing I said when I finished reading this book. I couldn't put it down, I didn't want to stop, I had to know what was happening next. I needed to know, it was a hunger inside of me that I needed to feed. 

This story is amazing by every standard of the word and even greater. The characters are lovable, no matter how broken they all. All except one but he's not supposed to be so if he is real and I see him on the street I may run him over. They have such an endearing charm, no matter where I found them. 

The storyline just breaks my heart. I hung onto every word, praying for a happy ending. I couldn't pretend this wasn't real, because my brain nagged me that someone somewhere was probably in this situation and they may not have anyone there to help them. It just breaks my heart, but at the end I was cheering like a maniac, so happy with tears in my eyes. 

Favorite quotes: 

"He'll be here soon. An hour. Maybe a few hours, if she's very, very unlucky. It's not that she wants to see him sooner, it's just that if he's late, it means he'll be drunk. And anything can happen when the monster gets liquored up."

"You're a girl who fell in the love with the wrong guy. Your face doesn't matter, it's your heart that's important. And if you can love a guy like that, then I know it had to be twice the size of a normal one."

"'Where there's hope there's possibility right?'she turns and looks at Nicole, a kind expression on her face and questions behind her eyes. 'I don't know' Nicole says, taking another sip of her drink and looking off at the sun again. 'Wishing can bring false hope and then what does that get you?' 'Temporary happiness? A little rest from the storm?'"

"'Love is blind,' Agnes reaches out a hand and strokes Nicole's cheek. 'Love sees inside the person. It doesn't stop at the surface. That stuff is all just window dressing, anyway. It says nothing about what you're really getting. If a man loves you when you look your worst, you know he's a keeper. They're a rare breed to, so I don't recommend walking away from it easily.'"

All in all:

This is an incredible story of being in pain and broken for far too long, and salvation and security climbing into the window. Misplaced love, new hope, turmoil and everything that can go wrong, going wrong, but it's okay because as long as there are guardian angels we can be safe. I highly recommend this book to any and every one, as well as all her books already published and to come. 

I encourage anyone who is in an abusive relationship or knows someone who is in one, please get help for you or for them. You can be strong just like Nicole was, I believe in you. So does everyone else. Let us be your guardian angels.

Shine Not Burn - Elle Casey Review

Book: Shine Not Burn
Author: Elle Casey
Genre: New Adult

Book Synopsis: IT HAPPENED IN VEGAS. 

I can't be held responsible. Things that happen there are supposed to stay there, right? Right? Yeeeah. Not so much. 

Andie's just days away from tying the knot, but there's just ooooone little glitch. Apparently, she's already married. Or someone with her name is married to a guy out in Oregon of all places, and the courthouse won't issue her a marriage license until it's all cleared up. Tripping her way through cow pies and country songs to meet up with a man who gets around places on horseback is her very last idea of how to have a good time, but if she's going to get married, make partner at the firm, and have two point five kids before she's thirty-five, she needs to get to the bottom of this snafu and fix it quick ... before her fiance finds out and everything she's been working toward goes up in flames.

Book Review: I don't even know where to begin when it comes to this book. So I shall begin by telling you this... Wow. Yup, that sums it up rather well. I fell in love with this book after reading the first few lines. Elle never disappoints in hooking her readers in with her snazzy word play, and this is no exception. The characters were so lovable, making you want to love them more and more as you continue to turn the pages. It was exciting, with the perfect hints of romance, pain, lust. Oh yeah, did I forget to mention the quite delicious cowboys? Well let me tell you, yummy yummy. Almost makes me want to run off to Vegas and pray I find a sexy rancher like our buddy Mac. I can tell you in all honesty this book will on no way shape or form disappoint you if you're looking for an exciting book with all the right elements. You better preorder right now! Or buy the book when it comes out I don't care but you had better buy the dang thing! 

Sam, over and out! :3

Get Ready For The Apocalypsis (Apocalypis - Elle Casey)

Series: Apocalypsis
Book Name:  Apocalypsis Kahayatle
Author: Elle Casey
Genre: Young Adult, Fantasy, Science Fiction, Dystopia, Horror, Thriller, Action

Book Synopsis:   
 My name's Bryn Mathis. I'm seventeen years old, and I live in a neighborhood outside of Orlando. Florida. I live alone because my dad died almost a year ago, along with all the other adults in the world. I'm almost out of food and the gangs of kids that roam around my town are getting more vicious by the day. It's time for me to leave and find another place to live... a place where I can find food and shelter... a place where they won't be able to find me. Alone, it might have been possible; but now I've got company. I'm worried that I don't have what it takes to get from here to my final destination. And I have no idea what might be waiting for me when I get there.

Book Review:     The world has come to end for all those between the ages of 10 and 20, while the rest have found their solace in death. Now those who are left must fend for themselves and some have become desperate, desperate enough to eat anything. I have to say, this book blew me away. With action, humor and a small hint at a possible romance I loved it. At every moment reading this book you were highly aware of everything going on in this book but nothing around you as you were pulled deeper and deeper into this sometimes fast paced plot. The characters were developed quite well, and as the book goes on you learn more about them.   

If you get pulled in as much as I did, you may want to be careful not to attack anyone that comes near you when you are reading thinking they are there to attack you. The plot and the story line kept me glued to my seat with my kindle in my hand at almost all times. The tension you felt like the characters did coursed through me as I read, I felt their pain and smiled as they joked along the way.

Favorite Quote:       "No wonder the world came to an end. Everyone living in it was a bunch of assholes."~Peter

All In All:        Elle has once again rocked my world with another amazing cliff hanger (dang her and her cliff hangers). She has created a world that en wraps the reader into a place where we can only hope we don't end up. If you are into young adult post apocalyptic books that will keep you in your seat then you know you have to check out this book. I give this book a 4.5 stars!

Get Both of Your Sides Pumped for Duality!

Series: Duality
Book: Melancholia (Duality #1)
Author: Elle Casey
Genre: Young Adult, Fantasy

Book Synopsis:
Malcolm's had a problem for as long as he can remember. No matter where he goes or what he does, he leaves misery in his wake. Sadness and negativity are his constant companions, influencing others around him until they cannot bear to live.

But then Rae shows up in his life, and everything changes. Darkness cleaves to light. Anger yields to joy. The question is whether she'll be his salvation or his destruction.

Book Review:
I give this book 4 out of 5 stars! We have characters who you will instantly fall in love with, and who should be falling in love with one another but their too damn stubborn. Let's not forget about our antagonists that just happen to be taking much interest in the new girl.

Favorite Quote:
"Superstars live in the limelight, and I have to stay in the shadows."

Characters:
Malcolm: One of our main characters of the story. Think of him as an unwilling messenger from the dark side. He doesn't want to get to close to anyone because they get to close. Yet, he soon finds himself needing to get close to Rae.

Rae: Another important main character. You can think of her as a cherub of happiness. She also doesn't like to get to close to people, because once they do they find it impossible for them to stay away.

Jasmine: She is what you would call a neutral, and becomes an important friend to both Malcolm and Rae.

Kootch: This guy is all over the place, but in truth he is an amazing friend to both main characters. He has a background that thrives off misery but upon meeting Rae things change for him.

Things I didn't like about the book:
One thing that I found that displeased me about the book was that sometimes I would get confused about what I was reading. The wording sometimes would throw me off, and I would have to go back several times to re-read the lines trying to make sense of what I read.

All In All:
All in all this book was very pleasing. It was easy for me to fall in love with the characters and their stories, feel their emotions as they experienced it, and root for them as they faced challenges. Though the sentence structures sometimes threw me off, i was able to get back on track and continue through. So if you are interested, please don't be afraid to go and purchase. Elle Casey would really appreciate it and I am sure you will fall in love with her writing.

War of the Fae: Book 1 (The Changelings) Review

Book synopsis: Jayne Sparks, a potty-mouthed, rebellious seventeen-year-old and her best friend, shy and bookish Tony Green, have a pretty typical high school existence, until several seemingly unrelated incidents converge, causing a cascade of events that change their lives forever. Jayne and Tony, together with a group of runaway teens, are hijacked and sent into a forest, where nothing and no one are as they seem. Who will emerge triumphant? And what will they be when they do?

Some key characters:
Our main characters are some of the strangest, fiercest and realest characters I think I have encountered in a very long time when it comes to a book. 

1. Jayne- Jayne is a spit fire of a character with a mouth that could make any pirate or sailor proud. She tends to get wrapped in her own head, but we all do. Jayne is rather fierce, and can sense the underlying dangers around her. Sad part is though she is far too stubborn a lot of the time to shy away from it, making her an amazingly powerful heroine of our story.
2. Tony- Tony is best friends with our heroine Jayne. He connects with her like no one else, and though he is not the strongest will protect Jayne at all costs. He has some underlying strength within him and with the help of Jayne, you can be sure he will kick some serious a**
3. Becky- Becky is our little chipper ball of sweetness. She always seems to sport a smile on her face, the happy little chick. She isn't much of a fighter like our other protagonists, but she will capture your heart instantly.
4. Spike- Oh Spike, can we talk about hot?! Spike is my kind of guy, and apparently the kind of guy our lovely heroine likes too ;) (Looks like I have some competition for him). Spike is a dude with a killer smile, hot enough to make ice melt in the freezer, is total rock star material, need I say more? No, I don't think I do. I would tell you you would fall in love with him but I would rather you not because I am claiming him right now. Infinity dibs! See? Mine.
5. Jared- the mysterious man with the plan. Jared has helped save our main characters early on, but something is really off  about the dude. I mean like, falling off the cliff odd not like the rolling off the bed and falling onto the floor kind of fall where your mom comes in because she thinks you died or something and... well I think you understand where this is going.
6. Chase- Chase is just too sweet. I like him a lot, a character that you can all find very likeable. Chase is a large guy, don't get me wrong he is big. Man of not so many words though. He is a loyal and dependable sweetheart though.
7. Finn- Finn is quite the character. Him and our happy little fire cracker Becky seem to have a thing going. He is very loyal to his friends. He is our little southern cherry, can't have a great story without one of those.

Book Review: 

Let me just say this before we get started on how I feel about the book. I am a huge Elle Casey fan. I am part of her street crew, and I spread the word about her here and there for everyone to know how amazing of an author she is. This book has not tarnished my ideas of her at all, and she will not tarnish you ideas of what a good book should contain. This book was absolutely amazing. The story pulls you in on the paragraph, opening the mind of our heroine and revealing her feelings. Feelings I am sure we have all felt at one point or another, no matter who you are. We all want something more out of our lives, and we all have the potential to be just so. You may not have it in you to for it, but our heroine does. So let her take you on her journey, and maybe even discover a little of yourself you have been hiding away. Her characters will fill you with your hidden fierceness and power, and feel just like I did. Empowered and ready to face what comes next for both the characters and in my life. Not everyone may feel the way that I feel about the book but that is okay, I am not going to force you to feel my opinions on the book because if all works out well you will feel them fine all by your lonely lonesome self.

Meet Elle Casey:

Here is a little bit I found about the author I thought I would share with you guys. The best way to understand a book is to understand the author, so I thought I would save you guys some time and money from having to hire a private detective to dig up some dirt on her by having them dig through her garbage or something. I mean do you know how weird it would be if you looked out your window and found someone looking through your garbage for who knows what? No, it has not happened to me and I will deny any accusations :P

About her (information taken from her website):
