"Oh, thank god you're here!" Jessa closed the distance between us and ran up to me, grabbing my arm and tugging me to her chest. "I've been waiting for like five minutes, looking like a loser all alone. We have such a long day ahead of us."
I sighed. "What's first on the agenda?" "Nails. We can just walk." She threw her messenger bag over her shoulder, and we began the walk toward our small downtown. Ridgebury was a small town, with one main street, a tiny movie theater, and a dozen pizza places. It was comfortable and easy to get from place to place. Not to mention everything was located on the main street so you could literally do one stop shopping.

I hardly slept last night, but woke up around 3 am completely awake. I felt fine, but it was unsual for me to function on less than seven hours of sleep. I took a shower and blew dry my hair. Wrapped in my towel, I sat down at my light brown desk and began a research paper that was due in two weeks. Since I was awake, I figured I may as well get a head start on it.
Knock knock. My mom pushed her way into my room. "Sweets, what are you doing up?" "Just couldn't sleep," I said. "I figured I'd get some work done." "How'd we get so lucky with you?" She leaned forward and kissed the top of my head. I shut my laptop, done since I didn't have to be quiet anymore and had done enough work for a lifetime. "I'll make us some pancakes. Get dressed." She shut the door behind her as I nodded. |

I fell in love with Leo Daniels faster than you could say Leo Daniels. September 2016, I remember when it happened like it was yesterday.

Leo had a life that was foreign to me. In the town of Ridgebury, I was sheltered and accepted, and my family surrounded me with love. But Leo’s life was toxic. And his poison burned into me. Click. What was I supposed to do? Leave him to avoid what was sure to be a terrible ending, or stay by his side? I deserved better, but so did he. If I stayed, would we lose everything? What was the price of our love? Chapters

What Readers Have to Say..."An absolutely heart wrenching read that shows us that at times no matter how much we hope, darkness will find its way to win. "
-Blogger's From Down Under for A Reliant Love "So this book is the ultimate love story. I like how two ordinary people who is so different and still so alike in so many ways can overcome everything together." -Angelica Berglund for For The Love of Hockey "I never thought I would read a "zombie book", much less love one. The Last Legacy really surprised me. Even with the whole people-eating-people thing, it was a fantastic book" -Melannie S for The Last Legacy "I could not wait to start book two. If this book was as good as book one, then I knew I wouldn't be disappointed. It wasn't as good as book one...it was better. " -Keely Retchloff for Finding Sam |
"The powers, the love, the excitement, the drama kept me so enthralled. If you are looking for a GREAT series about true love and mythology, look no further... I wish I could rate 10 stars! Definitely recommend this whole series to all my book loving friends!"
-The Book Blog for A Curse Books Trilogy "For the Love of Ash" by Taylor Lavati was a rare 5-star read for me. I honestly find many typical romances rather dull and predictable. This was not the case at all here; there was nothing average about the romance, overall storyline, and the long list of supporting characters." -Summer's Book Blog for For The Love of Ash "Wingless isn't what I would normally pick up and read, but thought I'd try it out and I am so glad I did. The characters and "worlds" she creates are done so well that you can actually picture them and feel like you are there right along with the characters." -JLH for Wingless |
