Choosing You (Pierced Hearts Duet #2)

So, now that I've read and finished book 2 I understand the first book SO. MUCH. MORE. (See my last review) 


"A single glance. A fleeting moment. A solitary touch could make everything worth it. This was my breaking point. This was where I lost myself completely. I did the only thing that made sense. The only thing I had left to give. I begged her..To take me with her. Book 2: The conclusion to The Pierced Hearts Duet"

"I know I'll never be able to live up to your once-in-a-lifetime love, and I don't want to feel like I'm here because she isn't." 

All the confusion and frustrating I was feeling while reading book 1 of this duet, is completely gone now. This book was fantastic. It answered everything I was confused about, and more. It had heart, humor, heat, and emotion. It was beautifully written and the characters really developed for me. 

"You're reaching, Camila." "You called me Camila, not Mary Poppins. Hashtag progress." "You really need to stop watching Mean Girls." "I'm not a regular nanny." I smirked, winking. "I'm a cool nanny."

The kids really shined in this one for me. I enjoyed watching Jackson grow, sure he was still hateful and spiteful, but you started to put the pieces together and see what was really going on there, it made me understand him even more. I loved the scenes with Journey dancing, and really showing how much love and life Camila had breathed into her life. I liked the mystery surrounding Jagger, he knew things no one else understood, and he was so much smarter than anyone even realized. 

"For the first time in my life, I'm struggling with the reality that maybe you're allowed to love more than one person in a lifetime. That maybe you're allowed to have more than one soulmate."

The theme I got from this book was that while there are soulmates out there, if something has happened don't lose hope, because there is the chance that you will love more than one person in your life, that you might have more than one soulmate. I was happy that we finally found out how Aiden and Bailey's story ended, and how Aiden and Camila came to be. It wasn't without some shock, because while some of it I figured out, it still managed to blow my freaking mind. The one curveball was one I NEVER saw coming. 

"Yes. I love her. I've always loved her, and you have too. It's why I chose her for you."

Overall, this one is definitely getting a full 5 STARS. This book was amazing. It was heartfelt, it was funny, and it was painful, but it was beautiful. I'm glad I read these books because they were pretty darn amazing, and now I have a new author to seek out, because I can't wait to see what's in store for Jackson & Harley. 

"If I'd learned one important lesson in all of this, it's not about the love story, it's about the journey of making all your dreams come true. It's hard. At times unfair. However, where there was hope, there were prayers. Where there was hurt, there was happiness."

"This was the beginning of OUR love story."

My Top Series/Duets of 2019

I had to make a whole blog post dedicated to the fantastic Series/Duets that I read this year. I'm not going to lie, I usually try to stay away from a book that has more than one read because I don't want to be committed to a series and then have to wait for the next piece to come out. These authors drew me in this year, they put out some fantastic work, and I actually didn't mind waiting, I anticipated it. They deserved a whole blog post dedicated to the fantastic work they put out this year! And if you love a good duet, or you love a good series, these are definitely the way to go! And I should also note, every one of these is fully released now, so you won't even have to wait like I did!  Just like my last post of my favorite reads of the year, these are in no particular order.  Brayshaw High Series by Meagan Brandy White Monarch Series by Jessica Hawkins Landon & Shay by Brittainy C. Cherry Hand Over My Heart Duet by Lindsey Iler  Pierced He...

Violent Delights

I have had a pretty crap day, but this book was really good, and there was a point in my day when the house when quiet, the baby was sleeping, and I wanted to take my mind off of things so I picked this book back up and started reading. I finished it pretty quickly, because it had me on the edge of my seat!  "For those who are deserving, I ask before I take. I feed those who feed me. I can't control how others interpret things, but I give honesty where I get it. You'll find me dead before you find me a liar." "In the de la Rosa family, old grudges run deeper than loyalty, and betrayal is the three-letter word: war. But this feud isn't between enemies. It's between brothers. And I'm the prize. I was born a princess among criminals. An untouchable among thieves. Heiress to a life others have killed for, and one I'm prepared to trade for my freedom. I vowed not to leave without Diego, my first love and best friend, but if his ruthless broth...
