From Here To You Review

Hello Fellow Readers!

 The book I am going to review today is From Here To You by the amazingly talented Jamie McGuire. Every book I have read of hers has pulled at my heart strings, and her characters are so real that you will feel a part of them. I have never been disappointed in any of Jamie's books, and this one blew me away yet again!

The description came from the Goodreads website:

 "As Darby Dixon sits in a tiny Texas church bathroom on her wedding day holding a positive pregnancy test, she realizes that of all the bad decisions she's made in her life, marrying her abusive fiancé would be the worst. She's never been able to stand up for herself, but she'll sure as hell stand up for her baby. With just the cash she has on hand, she runs to get a bus ticket to the farthest place she can afford. Between her sheer grit and pageant-queen smile, she lands a job as a front desk clerk at the Colorado Springs Hotel. It's not a glamorous life, but she and her baby are all that matters.

A former Marine, Scott "Trex" Trexler has worked in the most dangerous, corrupt, war-torn places on earth. Now he finally has a chance to return to the last place he'd felt at peace--Colorado Springs, Colorado, to take a new job with the Cheyenne Mountain Complex, a top-secret military installation buried deep within the granite.

The moment Trex walks into the inn, Darby knows he's dangerous. There's no way she wants to get involved with another man who seems to be keeping way too many secrets. As charming and devastatingly gorgeous as Trex is, he clearly isn't telling her everything. But as wildfires rage on the mountain and Darby's ex-fiancé shows he isn't so willing to let her go, both she and Trex are soon to find out that what you don't know absolutely can hurt you."

Darby knows that she is in a very bad relationship, but doesn't see anyway out of it, because she knows if she runs she will die. While panicking in a church bathroom, she discovers she is pregnant and knows that she has to leave the relationship for the sake of her child. She escapes and manages to find a job at a hotel in Colorodo Springs. While there she meets Trex, who wants Darby and will do anything to be with her, however he knows that something is wrong and he has to take things slow. You also get to hear about some of the Maddox brothers from the Beautiful Disaster series, but I am not telling you which ones. 

This book hit me really deep, because I was once in a horrible relationship just like Darby, where he was mentally abusive and that does something to a person. Darby's character was so close to how I felt that I could relate with her and everything she was going through. Also, might I dare say it but.....I found Trex to be sexier than Travis. Jamie knows how to bring the characters to life, and bring the reader into the story. Even if you haven't read anything by her before, you need to read this amazing story, because you won't be disappointed!

Go on adventures with a former Marine and sexy fireman readers!

All the Little Lights Review

Hey Readers!

 So today I am going to be reviewing All the Little Lights by Jamie McGuire. I first fell in love with Jamie's writing when my plane got delayed and I found her book Beautiful Disaster in the airport store. All the Little Lights follows her style of writing and ability to make you feel like your part of the story. You are able to place yourself in the characters foot steps, and might even have experienced some of the same events as the main characters do.

The description of the book has been taken from Goodreads:

 "The first time Elliott Youngblood spots Catherine Calhoun, he’s just a boy with a camera, and he’s never seen a sadder and more beautiful sight. Both Elliott and Catherine feel like outcasts, yet they find an easy friendship with each other. But when Catherine needs him most, Elliott is forced to leave town.

Elliott finally returns, but he and Catherine are now different people. He’s a star high school athlete, and she spends all her free time working at her mother’s mysterious bed-and-breakfast. Catherine hasn’t forgiven Elliott for abandoning her, but he’s determined to win back her friendship…and her heart.

Just when Catherine is ready to fully trust Elliott, he becomes the prime suspect in a local tragedy. Despite the town’s growing suspicions, Catherine clings to her love for Elliott. But a devastating secret that Catherine has buried could destroy whatever chance of happiness they have left".

This story is told from Elliott's point of view and Catherine's point of view. You get to experience both sides of the story and get a better understanding of each character. Catherine is written as a strong female character, which I absolutely love, and plus she isn't perfect and has her own flaws, so she is more relatable. Plus don't get me started on how hot Elliott sounds, because oh my lord, he sounds like one fine man, which is in true Jamie fashion. You are taken on a journey through heartbreak, first love, forgiveness, and suspense. Catherine and Elliott are not perfect at all, which gives them more of a real person feel, because in all honestly the less perfect a character is, the better the story is. Catherine has her share of heartbreak and loss, while at the same time learning some new things about herself. Elliott has his own share of problems, and through it is able to be strong and supportive of Catherine.

I don't want to give too much away, because in all honestly it would be very easy to do with this amazing story. This story will take you on a roller coaster ride that you are not going to want to get off of. I wanted to finish the book, but than again I didn't because I didn't want to let this beautiful story between these two characters go. This is a good book to read by a fire, with tissues on hand, under a blanket, with a nice cup of hot chocolate.

Get ready to go on the ride of your life, and just maybe you will fall in love along the way!
