I’ve loved Danny since I was five.
He’s loved me longer.
It seemed destined that we would be together, it seemed like the stars had aligned.
Then we grew up and life got in the way.
He’s stepping up to be president of the Motorcycle club we grew up in.
And I want no part in it.
I want to be free, to travel the world and experience life without violence.
He’s not willing to give up the club.
I’m not willing to be an old lady.
But giving him up is like losing a part of myself.
Love isn’t easy.
Life certainly never is.
The manacles he has wrapped around me will hold me to him.
No matter how hard I try to run.

really liked it

Fear, fear of what can happen.

This is how Skye feels after the events over the last year within the MC, and it has her running scared. Running away form a life that she is meant to have and lying to herself that she wants something different. Her love for Danny comes from deep within her soul and there is no changing that, no matter how much distance she put herself from him.

Danny has always known his place within the MC and what lies in his future and one thing was supposed to be included is running scared. He is left feeling hurt, and betrayed.

This is another fantastic read from Bella, her writing is one that will have you left wanting more.
Looking forward to her next book

 really liked it
"I found my soul mate...I found him in every corner of every place in my life, invading me, becoming part of me.
I found Danny and I wanted to keep him.
I really did.
But life got in the way, and that's the thing about life.
It's a god damned bitch."

When life is good, safe and seems perfect all it takes is one unexpected moment of harsh reality to send your fragile house of cards tumbling down. Sewing a seed of doubt that blooms into a full blown garden of misgivings Skye feels she needs ten degrees of separation from her club, her friends, the love of her life and the danger she associates with them. Running to a life she dreams will be different, safe and secure she breaks the hearts of those who love her. Isolating herself by trying to be someone other than she is to explore her dreams of travel, freedom and falling in love without the expectations of her MC she soon finds the reality of her new beginning doesn't match her ideals. Skye is fighting so hard to break free from her club and the happily ever after with her childhood sweetheart that she finds herself drowning in a world that doesn't accept her as she is...

"I barely know who I am these days, having lost myself somewhere along the line."

Yet whenever she is about to go under her man rides in to save her, even from her own bad decisions. Danny is the future President of the MC and lives for the club. Unable to step away to prove his love for Skye, he supports her choice to broaden her horizons even though it breaks his heart in the process. Always in the shadows he is a swoon worthy alpha male that let's the thing he loves most free...but will she ever come back?

Skye is juvenile and blinded by her fear; fear of the danger the club puts her in, fear that there is something more out there, fear that she is missing out on other experiences. Skye is not a loveable character, she doesn't see the worth of what she has until others point it out to her. Wanting what she can't have even though she's already had it. She is a perfectly imperfect biker brat that needed a spanking over her daddy's knee! Danny let's her go...doesn't seem to fight for her but she doesn't fight for him either. He is stoic, she is childish and yet together they somehow work. The club has lots going on. Business still has to be settled and blood will be shed. It's great to catch up with some of much loved favourites although this is a very angst heavy instalment in this series. I love Bella Jewels writing style, her stories flow effortlessly and I can never put my Kindle down until the story is done. Even though Skye proved not to be one of my favourite leading ladies I loved Danny, maybe as I enjoy a brooding alpha male. The catch up was fantastic and overall I really enjoyed this.

A four star read.

BOOK BLITZ : THE BURDEN OF TRUST by Tabitha Dye



Title: The Burden of Trust
Author: Tabitha Dye
Genre: Contemporary, Women's Fiction
Release Date: October 18, 2013
Cover Design: Tabitha Dye


The Burden of Trust is a love filled drama about an arrogant actor who accidentally falls head over heels with a lesbian who has a dark twisted past.

As a last resort, Kate found herself in the hospital chapel; even though she wasn’t a religious person, she needed guidance more than she had ever imagined. Sitting in silence with maybe one other person, Kate was unsure of how this was done. It had been three months since Kerri had fallen into her coma, and Kate had begun to lose her faith about recovery. Her eyes closed and her hands folded in a prayer pose; she didn’t pay any attention when someone sat down in her pew, but continued to pray. A soft, drawling voice spoke to her and rattled her nerves. Kate had prepared herself for this moment; it would only be a matter of time before they showed up. 








Tabitha is a new and upcoming author who just finished her first novel in The Burden of Trust series. At the age of twenty she was published in Families Like Mine, which sparked her passion for storytelling.

Currently living in Florida, Tabitha is a graduate from University of Central Florida with a Business degree. Today she spends her time reading, traveling the state with her husband and finds herself addicted to English Tea to help with the late night writing sessions.

I self-published, so there is no specific editor and I created the covers through CreateSpace.

Excerpt

Thick black hair, dark intense eyes, broad muscles filling out his shirt, he was straight out of a naughty late night fantasy. True, I was a city girl, but I had to admit I had a soft spot for a good Highland romance, the type featuring a massive Scottish warrior who’d brave fire and brimstone to be with his woman. The type so broad and tough he’d fell an army with the swoop of his battle axe while still managing to grasp you in his free arm, pull you up with him on his horse and ride off with you pressed against his huge, barbaric, manly chest.

He was sitting right there at the bar watching me. I swallowed, feeling my face flush. I tried to look away. I had street smarts. A woman on her own didn’t walk into a bar and instantly make steady, heated eye contact with a gigantic strange man. My brain knew that. But my brain wasn’t in charge at the moment. Something else had taken over entirely and I continued walking toward him with nothing but a vaguely formed “wow” on my lips.

The Way Back to Me (The Way #1) – Released Feb 23, 2016

 
the way back to me

She was perky, fun, and full of life—everything I hated about girls and their bullshit exterior. People called her bubbly; I called her “fake-as-hell.”

The edgy, dark, lonely girl in front of me was not the Olivia Brennan I knew from high school—far from it, actually. I knew the story—the whole town knew the story, we witnessed it all. It happened in the blink of an eye and the girl we knew was gone.

But I refuse to watch it anymore—I can’t stand it. I’m going to fix it—fix her. It’s time I showed Olivia Brennan her way back…

Back to the girl she used to be.

Excerpt

Here’s a taste of Luke & Callie…

I stand and move to him. His back muscles tense when I place my hand on his shoulder. “I want to get to know everything about you, Luke Hardy,” I say and he spins around to face me.

His eyes search mine. “You already know the important bits.”

“No, I don’t.” I rest my hand against his chest. “I don’t know the secrets you keep locked in here. They’re the important bits.”

His intake of breath is sharp and he wraps his hand around mine. His other hand slides around my waist and he pulls me close.

Oh, shit.

No.

Too close.


But his lips brush across mine before I can move out of his embrace. His hold is tight and his message is very clear—he’s in charge here and if a kiss is what he wants, a kiss is what he will have.

He surprises me, though, and angles his face away from mine. Still keeping hold of me, he says, “I know we’re doing the friends-only thing for awhile, but a man’s got needs, Callie. If you put your hands on me, you better be prepared for the consequence of that.”

I’m pretty sure my eyes almost pop out of my head. I knew Luke was bossy—oh, boy did I know—but this is a whole new level of bossy. His deep voice vibrates along my skin, scattering goose bumps, while his eyes penetrate my soul. Those intense, green eyes of his will do it to me every time. They’ll cause me to forget everything I’ve ever said or thought and just cling to him for the ride.

He dips his face again and his mouth finds mine. The moment our lips connect sparks of desire burn through me. I’m so damn hot for him and I can’t control myself. I push my body hard against his and open my mouth to him.

He tastes like whiskey and I make a note to buy some just so I can remember this moment forever. I’ve never loved whiskey before, but it may just be my new favourite drink.

This kiss will forever live in my mind. Luke doesn’t simply kiss—he possesses. He takes me mind, body and soul.

In this kiss I find hope.

Hope that he will fight for me.

For the us we both want.
