Before Jamaica Lane by Samantha Young

Before Jamaica Lane (On Dublin Street #3) by Samantha Young
Publication Date: January 7th 2014

One simple lesson in seduction between two friends can turn into so much more…

Despite her outgoing demeanor, Olivia is painfully insecure around the opposite sex—usually, she can’t get up the nerve to approach guys she’s interested in. But moving to Edinburgh has given her a new start, and, after she develops a crush on a sexy postgrad, she decides it’s time to push past her fears and go after what she wants.

Nate Sawyer is a gorgeous player who never commits, but to his close friends, he’s as loyal as they come. So when Olivia turns to him with her relationship woes, he offers to instruct her in the art of flirting and to help her become more sexually confident.

The friendly education in seduction soon grows into an intense and hot romance. But then Nate’s past and commitment issues rear their ugly heads, and Olivia is left broken-hearted. When Nate realizes he’s made the biggest mistake of his life, he will have to work harder than he ever has before to entice his best friend into falling back in love with him—or he may lose her forever…


I love Samantha Young and I also love the friends to lovers trope so… this is the perfect book for me!! I absolutely adore the On Dublin Street series (Braden! <3), and I know Before Jamaica Lane won’t disappoint. And that blurb! Makes me want to read the book so bad.

A Beautiful Wedding by Jamie McGuire

A Beautiful Wedding (Beautiful #2.5) by Jamie McGuire
Publication Date: December 10th 2013

You know that Abby Abernathy unexpectedly became Mrs. Maddox. But what do you really know?

Why did Abby pop the question?
What secrets were shared before the ceremony?
Where did they spend their wedding night?
Who else knew about it . . . and didn’t tell?

Everything about Abby and Travis’s elopement was top-secret . . . until now. Fans of Beautiful Disaster and Walking Disaster will get all of their questions answered in this whirlwind tale of the wedding day (and night!)—and as with all good stories, this one will definitely have been worth the wait.


Beautiful Disaster is one of my all-time favorite books, and you have no idea how happy I was when I found out Jamie McGuire was writing more Abby and Travis. Travis! ❤ this bad boy so much!

Be With Me by Jennifer L. Armentrout

Be with Me (Wait For You #2) by J. Lynn
Publication Date: February 4th 2014

Teresa Hamilton is having a rough year—she’s in love with her big brother’s best friend, but he hasn’t spoken to her since they shared a truly amazing, mind-blowing, change-your-life kiss. She got out of a terrible relationship. And now an injury is threatening to end her dance career for good. It’s time for Plan B – college. And maybe a chance to convince Jase that what they have together is real.

Jase Winstead has a huge secret that he’s not telling anyone. Especially not his best friend’s incredibly beautiful sister. Even though he and Teresa shared the hottest kiss of his life, he knows that his responsibilities must take priority. He certainly doesn’t have time for a relationship. But it doesn’t help that all he can think about kissing the one girl who could ruin everything for him.

As they’re thrown together more and more, Jase and Tess can’t keep denying their feelings for each other. But a familiar danger looms and tragedy strikes. As the campus recovers, the star-crossed couple must decide what they’re willing to risk to be together, and what they’re willing to lose if they’re not…


Okay, so I HAD to choose Be with Me for my WOW pick, because I just got approved on Edelweiss for it!!! You have no idea how much I squealed with I saw I was approved. I love this series so much, and I just adore the older brother’s best friend/best friend’s younger sister trope.

AH! Can’t wait to start this!

Breakable by Tammara Webber

Breakable by Tammara Webber
Publication Date: May 6th 2014

He was lost and alone. Then he found her.
And the future seemed more fragile than ever.

As a child, Landon Lucas Maxfield believed his life was perfect and looked forward to a future filled with promise — until tragedy tore his family apart and made him doubt everything he ever believed.

All he wanted was to leave the past behind. When he met Jacqueline Wallace, his desire to be everything she needed came so easy…

As easy as it could be for a man who learned that the soul is breakable and that everything you hoped for could be ripped away in a heartbeat.

Note: “Breakable is not a sequel. It’s a prequel story from Landon and the Easy story from Lucas. …Breakable is Lucas’s story – for those of you who wanted inside his head. It can be read as a stand-alone of its own, or as a companion to Easy.”


SQUEE!! If you’ve read Easy, then BE HAPPY, because Lucas’s POV is finally coming! Sigh, I just adore Lucas. I think he was one of the first tattooed book boys I completely fell in love with. And now that we get his POV of Easy… YAY!!

As Omega Point prepares to launch an all-out assault on The Reestablishment soldiers stationed in Sector 45, Adam’s focus couldn’t be further from the upcoming battle. He’s reeling from his breakup with Juliette, scared for his best friend’s life, and as concerned as ever for his brother James’s safety. And just as Adam begins to wonder if this life is really for him, the alarms sound. It’s time for war.

On the battlefield, it seems like the odds are in their favor—but taking down Warner, Adam’s newly discovered half brother, won’t be that easy.

And that cover! It’s gorgeous!
