Fallen too Far by Abbi Glines

Summary from Goodreads

When Blaire Wynn's mother passed away, Blaire's life changed in an instant. Having cared for her sick mother for the last three years, suddenly Blaire has to leave the small farmhouse in Alabama they shared, to move in with her father and his new wife in their sprawling beach house along the Florida gulf coast. But what she isn't prepared for is the lifestyle change that comes with the move, and she knows she'll never fit into the new world of luxury and extravagance that suddenly surrounds her. 

Even worse, her father has run off to Paris for the summer with his wife, leaving her stranded with Rush, her new stepbrother, who's irritating, arrogant and… seriously sexy. Rush is as spoiled as he is gorgeous; his famous father's guilt money, his mother's desperation to win his love, and his charm are the three reasons he has never been told no. Blaire knows he is anything but good for her, but somehow she can't fight the attraction she's feeling, especially when she starts to think the attraction might be mutual… Rush is jaded and has secrets Blaire knows she may never uncover but even knowing all of that Blaire just may have fallen too far.

My Review
 
Abbi Glines is breaking my pregnant heart -  I was a blubbering and highly emotional mess at lots of different occasions throughout this whirlwind book!
 
The characters in here bounce right up out of the pages and command your attention. Main character Blaire, is a down-to-earth girl next door, with a good heart and a good head on her shoulders. She has had a bit of a rough past though. Now Rush...god damn it - I love that seriously sexy, extremely infuriating man. He is a bit of a man whore though...
 
Blaire and Rush's worlds collide when Blaire reaches out to her estranged father after the death of her mother. She asks for his help to get herself back on her feet, but when she arrives, he isn't there and she's left to deal with the rich and very arrogant step-brother, Rush!
 
Rush is everything Blaire doesn't need in her life....but she can't seem to get him out of her mind! The closer she gets the more she realises that Rush has a web of dark secrets lurking around in his closet.
The ending is tense, emotional and had me tearing up like an idiot.
 
Fallen too Far had me falling hard for a certain main character. The sexual tension that is woven into every page is electric and our main characters chemistry is sizzling. The storyline broke my heart and immediately after closing the book I picked up the next!
 
4 / 5 Stars

Cuckoo Song by Frances Hardinge - Blog Tour!

Summary from Goodreads The first things to shift were the doll's eyes, the beautiful grey-green glass eyes. Slowly they swivelled, until their gaze was resting on Triss's face. Then the tiny mouth moved, opened to speak. 'What are you doing here?' It was uttered in tones of outrage and surprise, and in a voice as cold and musical as the clinking of cups. 'Who do you think you are? This is my family.' When Triss wakes up after an accident, she knows that something is very wrong. She is insatiably hungry; her sister seems scared of her and her parents whisper behind closed doors. She looks through her diary to try to remember, but the pages have been ripped out. Soon Triss discovers that what happened to her is more strange and terrible than she could ever have imagined, and that she is quite literally not herself. In a quest find the truth she must travel into the terrifying Underbelly of the city to meet a twisted architect who has dark designs on ...
