This book is about the stories about Jackson and Savannah and their past. A long time ago they could have been something. But as always something or some things got in their way. Now, the time seems to be on their side, but first a few circumstances have to be cleared. Will Jackson fight till the end this time and will Savannah run again? I liked Jackson from the first page on. He knows what he wants, what his issues are and is passionate to make his wish come true. Savannah was difficulter for me, I could understand her in a way, but for some things I just wanted to shake her. It was written on point, got all the feels and scenes you like to read. A very good story. More realistic than others, but that is what made it so good.

“Tears your emotions apart”
This is not a lovestory like I used to read very often, but this one I looked forward to and liked it. The story is very thoughtful written, you don`t want to stop reading till the end of a chapter, and than go on. Hayes gets it all, girls, money, is popular and captain of the swim team. But he has a very deep and terrible secret. Morgan is friendly, cares for her little sister and wants to get along with most people.When both meet for the first time Hayes is in a bad space. At school Hayes is determind to keep Morgan from telling others about their encounter. As it becomes clear that their parents are dating, things get worse. Morgan gets heat and hate from Hayes. He treats her very bad every chance he gets, but Morgan has no idea why. With time going on Morgan suspects to know Hayes secret and wants to help despite his behaviour to her. When their parents get closer, things only get really worse. When the dark secret is revealed there is one question. Can everybody who is involved overcome this? I liked Morgan from the start, she became this wonderful girl despite her terrible mother. I always hurt for her suffering. Hayes was the enemy, but when his problems became clear, I more than felt bad for him. Not for the faint of heart.

“When nothing is more important than protect your family”
Wow, I don’t even know where to start. This book really delivers everything you would expect from a book that is more than just a love story. Taking over the family business, making a name for yourself, getting respect and the girl. And then it goes one step further when a baby comes into play. So much for Ricky to do at once. And he really tries hard. Dez is transported into a situation she thought would never happen, with a man she didn’t have in mind. But still, they both make friends with the situation and real feelings develop. But dangers lurk at every corner and Ricky must now climb a step. Can Dez handle it? And who is with or against you in the end. I liked Ricky very much despite all the things he had to decide and implement. I could feel with Dez in her diffent und difficult situations. An excitingly written story with many twists and turns. Characters with whom you can sympathize and feel and many old acquaintances are also back in the game. The end leaves a small hangover. But you can hope to learn more about Pandora. I would like it very much.

„Rixon Raiders forever and always“
Ok, where to start. I love the stories of Rixon High and the Raiders. I was there from the first book. And now we are coming to the end and I am very very sad. The story of Poppy and Aaron is amazing. Beautiful, a little sad in places and of course romantic. Two teenagers who think so much about everything, worry and hold on to promises there are not many. I was curious every time how it felt when Poppy and Aaron met. Poppy who wanted to be strong but almost always succumbed to her will. Aaron who always thought about what he wanted but told himself he wasn’t allowed to. And his trouble about his future. The pressure Aaron brought to himself. The trouble Poppy got with her mum. As always surrounded by good friends, mean girls and loving parents. It is always nice to see how the characters have changed from the first generation, or in many ways not. I was really looking forward to this story and, as expected, was not disappointed. I can only say that I’m not ready to say goodbye.
Favourite Quote: “My biggest regret is letting you go, Amelia”
“Beautiful, sad and humorous, all in one”
There is not often a book that has me wanting to read it in one go. But Jax and Amelias story isn`t just a just love story or just a book. It is so much more. The chemistry between these two is intense you can almost feel it while reading. Yes, there is a sad part in this one, but it is not the main theme. It leads to the story. Jax and Millie know each other since childhood. But every time these two seem to get closer something or at least someone gets in their way. So it happens that Amelia gets in a relationship with Chris, a friend of Jax. Now, years and a tragedy later Jax and Amelia are forced to spend time with each other. But what years ago could have been more than a friendship turned over in something like hate. I like Amelia a lot, there are thing you can´t undertand about her but despite everything she is, through it makes her, her. Jax is difficult, but just in the beginning. When you get to know him, many things or his behaviour makes sense. Every time Jax and Milie are together, things are getting out of hand. I laughed and cried the same amount when they get at each other. A very well written story. I liked everything about it. The story, the people, the writtingstyle and that there was no part to drawn out or seems forgotten. Definitely not my last book by her.

“So many unexpected twists and turns”
I started with the book and was immediately carried away. In the story as well as with the people. The writing style is so pleasant and the narrative style exciting that you could not put it down. So I caught me at night while reading, always with the sentence, just the chapter to end. I do not have to say that this night had little sleep for me. The story of Cade and Journey is neither simple nor free of mystery. These lead to the story. Journey’s life was not easy, growing up in an orphanage, the feeling of rejection constantly present. Cade has a family, but sometimes that doesn’t make it any easier. After the events of the last few months, the two meet again at school. Dislike, mistrust and hurt make Journey a loner. Cade’s attempts to talk to her fail. Gradually, and through Cade’s persuasion, Journey’s trust returns. But a danger is still out there. Will the two of them uncover the secrets, can they rekindle old feelings, and are friends really friends, and enemies really enemies. I liked Cade so much, his good intentions. I totally understood Journey and all of her feelings and actions. The chemistry between these two were so intense you could it every second they were together in a room.

“My favourite couple of the stolen series”
I read this book in one go. At the end of each page I wanted to know how it goes on and then suddenly you were 10% further and so on. I liked Ethan and Joclyn story from this series the most. For some unknown reason, their stories were the closest to me. Ethan, who never got over the early loss of his mother and got on the wrong track and is now still plagued by feelings of guilt. Jocelyn, who has always had to watch her back because of her difficult family circumstances, and who takes care of her brother in a touching way. A meeting of the two years ago changes both lives drastically without both of them knowing at first. When they then work together, more or less by chance, old and new feelings collide. But can they overcome hurt trust, ignorance and secrets to have any chance of happiness? The writing style was fluid, pleasant to read, the story very engaging. There were tearful moments but also heartwarming. And it is a beautiful conclusion to this triology.

“A whole new level of Brother`s best friend romance“
I don’t know what to say or how to say it right now. With this story, Rachel Leigh has created a whole new kind of brother best friend romance. No bully, no teasing or anything like that.
It’s a la boy knows girl forever, boy likes girl, girl likes boy. Chance comes love is confessed and they ride off into the sunset. Done! Far from it.
Here „sayings“ like, a broken heart or you are always with me get a new meaning.
Kit and Ryker are so incredibly perfect for each other even though it doesn’t seem that way. I can’t say much without spoiling, so I’ll try to keep it short and to the point.
I love Kit, I like Ryker, and I love the way he is. Their story is bumpy and somestimes heavy. Everything began with friendship as kids, than a harmless kiss created new feelings. But age and friendship didin`t allow Ryker to make a move on Kit. As 2 years later life got harder, Ryker has to leave Oakley shore and Kit behind. And Kit got angry and careless. She enjoyed all the little things, well, the one that she saw as the little ones.
Another 2 years later Ryker has to babysit his best freinds little sister, and she is not so little anymore. He learns fast that Kit took his words the wrong way, and is determind to show her their true meaning and maybe a little more than that too.
I smiled a lot, shook my head a lot, and cried a lot of honest tears towards the end. But of course smiled at the end. It has it in it, all of it. I love it. A story that goes to the heart.
It is so well written that you want and possible will read it in one go. The story is appealing, the writtingstyle fluidly and transpports all the feelings.
Favourite quote: This is unreal. He’s the human version of a golden retriever. I’m convinced.
“Daddy Graham makes me swoon”
I really liked Reed and Holland’s story already, but this one surpasses them. How wonderful is Graham, please. Hello? Yes his reputation wasn’t really the burner, but he turned it around unerringly and I was immediately a bit in love with him. Emery seems a bit cold and career-obsessed at first, but when you look deeper you see that it’s all a kind of self-protective mechanism. She was hurt and now puts her career above everything. More than she already does. Since both are not completely open and honest with each other, it complicates things a lot. Especially after the discovery of the pregnancy. Will Graham be able to convince Emery or will there be more complications for the two of them. When a list, the attempt of conviction and an unplanned pregnancy suddenly make two people completely different.

“Just the beginning…”
The author was new to me but the content of the story read like my favorite books, so I was in. At first I was confused but then I understood and quickly got into the story. Carina Adams gave me a book I didn’t know I needed. We see the beginning of a young love affair between two teenagers who have known each other their whole lives and have only ever been friends. Or at least didn’t want to admit to each other anymore. Lennon is a rather introverted but not shy girl who loves reading more than normal teenage stuff. Still, guys are starting to notice her. This puts Dean on the map. Does he have to or should he now slowly do something? He is the epitome of the golden boy. Everyone knows him, likes him and is friends with him. Both are gradually getting closer, but there are some obstacles and people in their way to each other and with each other. And then, it begins, becomes exciting and the cliffhanger comes. Book 1 end. Well, what can I say, I can hardly wait for the second part. Because with the short intro and the equally short outtro can be guessed, there is still a lot to come. I am EXCITED.
