For the better part of an hour, I don’t look up. The room is so dense the faces blur into a smudge of flesh, and all I do is pour and slide credit cards until I’m in a trance, barely aware of my actions. Mac comes from money and is what the locals call a "clone"... all money, all the same, no individuality, etc. Great review! This caught my eye when I first heard of it, but I wasn’t sure if I would like it for some reason.

Mac reminds me if Allie, Demi, and Summer were one person. Copper is like a combination of Dean and Logan.A New York Times , USA Today and Wall Street Journal bestselling author, Elle Kennedy grew up in the suburbs of Toronto, Ontario, and holds a B.A. in English from York University. From an early age, she knew she wanted to be a writer, and actively began pursuing that dream when she was a teenager. Ultimately, what saved the book for me and made it an overall win was that writing style I like so much and the characters which went a long way to overcoming the barrier I had about the revenge storyline. For readers who don’t have that same barrier, I think the book will work much better. I say it mostly because I know it’ll annoy Evan. Though on the other hand, maybe he’ll thank me. He might despise the clones, but he doesn’t seem to mind the rich princesses when they’re naked. I swear the dude’s trying to sleep his way through this town. He claims he’s “bored.” I let him believe that I believe him.

Juliet Mason, a professional thief turned contract killer, gets in deep Continue reading » I stride over, knowing I pose a menacing picture. I’m six two, haven’t shaved in days, and my hair could use a trim. Hopefully I look menacing enough to deter these bros from doing something stupid. Don’t be afraid to fight for what you know is right. Some conflicts and confrontations might be terrifying to go through, but they are essential for personal growth.

It doesn’t just affect the sexual aspect of the relationship too. When you have good girl syndrome, you unconsciously employ tactics that make it easier to avoid shame and rejection.For me, the negative part is that the plots and tropes can get a little repetitive (to be fair, I feel that way sometimes about thrillers and mysteries too.) Being a nice girl revolves around the idea that if you want to be loved and accepted, you have to be nice and kind to everyone. However, it’s a skewed concept because we cannot please everyone we meet, no matter how hard we try. The problem is it won’t come easy, which is understandable since the roots of this complex are something that women have internalized from a young age. Undoing something that has had years to cement itself inside your consciousness is always easier said than done.
