Review Ten Tiny Breaths

WOW. JUST WOW.

Going into this I didn't think I'd be on such a ride. I original decided to give it a shot after reading the reviews. I'm someone that glances over the blurb and takes what the reviewers say to heart. But even with the reviews I wasn't ready.

Kacey was in a "accident". A drunk driver hit the car she was riding in with her parents best friend and boyfriend. She sat there and listened to her moms last breath as she was forced to hold her dead boyfriends hand as his body temp dropped. She is dealing P.T.S.D. Her only salvation is her little sister Livie. Smart, pretty selfless Livie. I adore Livie. She refuses to feel to just BREATHE.

In comes Trent. Who is the lifeline that she has needed along. Who touches her to her core and makes her aware. Aware that she isn't living she isn'tBREATHING. Ten Tiny Breaths. Seize them. Feel them. Love them. 

Trent has a secret. It will crush her. It will be the tipping point that sends her spiraling. 

I love this novel. It's real. Kacey is REAL. I've recently lost someone very close and dear to me due to drunk driving. One decision can ruin a family. It actually can ruin multiple families. K.A. Tucker taught me a very important lesson. Empathy. Not only has Kacey learned to empathize with the victims of the accident, I have learned to empathize with the person who made a decision, and took away such an important figure in my life. That being said, a author that can TEACH is amazing in their own rights!

Cover Reveal Dirty Little Secret

Bailey wasn’t always a wild child and the black sheep of her family. She used to play fiddle and tour the music circuit with her sister, Julie, who sang and played guitar. That ended when country music execs swooped in and signed Julie to a solo deal. Never mind that Julie and Bailey were a duet, or that Bailey was their songwriter. The music scouts wanted only Julie, and their parents were content to sit by and let her fulfill her dreams while Bailey’s were hushed away.

Bailey has tried to numb the pain and disappointment over what could have been. And as Julie’s debut album is set to hit the charts, her parents get fed up with Bailey’s antics and ship her off to granddad’s house in Nashville. Playing fiddle in washed-up tribute groups at the mall, Bailey meets Sam, a handsome and oh-so-persuasive guitarist with his own band. He knows Bailey’s fiddle playing is just the thing his band needs to break into the industry. But this life has broken Bailey’s heart once before. She isn’t sure she’s ready to let Sam take her there again…

Title: Sempre

Author: J.M. DAHOWER

My Rating:

I read I fell in love, I was disgusted, I understood, I wanted to cry, I laughed I couldn't put it down! I have been in a read rut lately and I can say Sempre dragged me out of it kicking and screaming at gun point. I was not expecting to be so in love with this novel. 
What struck me and held me in it's grip is the honesty. Not between the characters because J.M. Darhower captured the secrets and lies that surround La Cosa Nostra. There was nothing held back. Regardless of how cold and heartless they seemed I found myself invested in these characters. They were not just people described on paper, they were actual people I came to care for. The writing was so charismatic and flowing. I gave up trying to guess the ending because I was ALWAYS wrong. It was a roller coaster on my emotions. I was played like a well tune fiddle and I effin' LOVED IT!
My only issue is the ending just ran up on me like a hit man... ahaha see what I did there. Clever I know. 
It left me with way more questions then answers and I must know what happens to Corrado! I shouldn't be so in love with him. I know, but he's so real. The hard emotions he surrounds himself in and only softness he shows is for Celia. That is swoon worthy I must say. Fix the ending please! I need to know what happens
