Avery Susan Sanders is not an Ass » by Justice Bana reviews
Summary Provided by the Author:
Avery Sanders should have been pleased that she received a full ride to Verminton University, one of the most prestigious colleges around. All goes well until she meets Jack Shanahan. He's rich, arrogant, and his father is paying for Avery's education.
W. S.'s Reviewing:
Wow. Yes, it's the most cliched poor-girl-meets-rich-boy romance every, but my oh my, Avery Sanders SHOULD be pleased. What Justice Bana reveals in this witty novel are many things: what exactly are the boundaries in a family relationship, when one can do for an enemy, and if first impressions are truely lasting impressions. Avery Sanders is the perfect Jane Austen for the Jack Shanahan. Avery has everything a girl doesn't want: a poor family, an enemy depending on her for a pregnacy, a lost father, and a drug-addict mother who uses her money. But Jack has everything except his best friend's girlfriend. And who, you may ask, is the best friend? Well, it's the ever so sweet Colin, who turns out to cheat on Avery because she's a virgin. But hey, a guy's got to have flaws, because otherwise, Colin just could have been the next Prince Charming. Oh yes, Jack Shanahan. He is the last guy I'd ever call "charming." Hearts are constantly broken, just as promises are, but the moral of the story must be, "What Ass is complete without its Jack?" I'll leave you to figure that question out by reading "Avery Susan Sanders is not an Ass"!

A Little Bit Crazy by TurtleGoddess
A Little Bit Crazy » by TurtleGoddess reviews
Summary Provided by the Author:
Carrie, a self-proclaimed book nerd, thought she would spend a quiet summer working at Angelo's, a crazy Italian pizza place. She didn't think a weird guy would come into the restaurant and hit on her - or that he would actually be a spy from Pizza Hut.
W. S.'s Reviewing:
Cute. It is absolutely cute. Except the fish-death in the first chapter. The most cliched book has uncliched itself after eighteen chapters of heartbreaks, pizza, and mending of first loves. But I have to say, Angelo's going to always be my fave. First suspecting Seth to be a spy from Pizza Hut, he finally accepts the fact that his favorite worker, Carrie is going out with him. “Well, who am I to stand in the way of young love?” he had exclaimed in A Little Bit Crazy, “I would be a bad Italian if I tried to.” Yes Ang, you would be. But we'll love you anyway. Seth isn't like the stereotypical "Darcy," but more like Bingley from Pride and Prejudice. Now look at me, making cliched connections with the mother of all romance novels. A Little Bit Crazy has, for real, made me "a little bit crazy." Little Carrie hopes her romance will be like her favorite book, Ella Enchanted, but both of us would admit that her love-life tops Ella's. Will you? Now read "A Little Bit Crazy" to see if you agree!

Six Weeks With Satan by woodstock1969
Six Weeks With Satan » by woodstock1969 reviews
Summary Provided by the Author:
It should have been the best summer ever: a six week tour with my choir through six major cities in Europe. Sounds amazing, right? I thought so too, until I remembered who was going with me: Kurt Matthews, my obnoxious, infuriating nemesis. Oh joy.
W. S.'s Reviewing:
A German girlie + a wicked Bostonian hottie + an Asian playgirl friend + Christian BFFL's + tons of music and guys + school trip to Europe= Six Weeks With Satan. I swear, if Satan was as hot and amazing as Kurt Matthews, I'd totally do him. Too bad he's a virgin... and totally in love with his childhood frenemy Lotte Leisch, his "little milk maid," as he calls him. We all know that Europe is the land of romance, oui ladies? It's pretty amazing that all these romantic events can happen in six weeks. But the hottest event was probably the erotic shower scene (don't worry, it's rated T, now R). Lotte is lucky to have a knight in shining armer, Kurt to protect her from racist bastards and hail stones. SWWS also has a side plot with Lotte's best friend, Eden, who has no experience with love like Jane (the Chinese pheromone hottie), but finds love in Matt. Then there are the hot Europeans Lotte meets along the way, and has flings (?!) with. Will Kurt ever tell her what he wanted to for seven years, or will the Italian Andreas hold our German girlie's heart? The six week proves to Lotte that maybe "Satan" is capable of love like her.

The Nutcracker Princess by red-cowboy-boots
The Nutcracker Princess » by red-cowboy-boots reviews
Summary Provided by the Author:
Santa's son is a jerk! A handsome jerk...But let's just ignore that fact. Holly Palmer, bored schoolgirl and diehard festive fangirl must find a way to stop him in his Christmas hating tracks...Or Xmas is off.
W. S.'s Reviewing:
Yes, I know that right now isn't Christmas season, but after reading "The Nutcracker Princess" I feel like I'm a little girl waiting for Christmas to come again. Although a fantasy, there is always room between the talking snowman and a friendly "yeti". This very cute holiday story would be the next "Elf" movie. A Christmas-loving Holly can't stand Noel, Santa's son. Ironically, Noel hates Chrismas, and has stolen the crystal, causing Christmas to be canceled... unless they save it from the evil clutches of Lumi. The cold, Snow Queen Lumi, plots to end Holly's favorite holiday. Using her "curse of the ringtone" on her cell phone, Holly battles though evil henchmen of Lumi, and is claimed the wife of Prince Frostylocks, aka Prince Charmless. Phoebus, the talking snowman, and Evan, the elf, helps Holly get Christmas back. But first, she must kiss Noel so Lumi's curse is gone from him. Do you want to know how the kiss happened? Well you'll have to read "The Nutcracker Princess" to find out!

Breaking A Promise by Soleai
Breaking A Promise » by Soleai reviews
Summary Provided by the Author:
Life is one big roller coaster for Ella. After her adopted parents divorced she is sent to Whitman Academy. There she meets cute guys, and a girl named Roxy. Quickly becoming friends Ella makes a promise, never to go for Roxy's brothers. Simple, right?
W. S.'s Reviewing:
Hot boys + two hot girls= A lovely and hot story. This story is filled with friendship, family problems, and most importantly, LOVE! The bonds in this story is intense, and test each other as the characters' actions are taken place. As an orphan, Ella Cavelleri, knows that love is what she wants, not money. Having people betrayed her in the past, she is glad to be friends with her new cousin, Roxy Morrison. Wanting to do everything to keep their friendship as strong as it is, Ella promises to never fall in love with Roxy's brothers. But too bad they're dang hawt... The sensitive, yet protective Braidon catches her eyes, and their relationship developes as they share their secrets. Ryan and Chris, the Morrison twins are not exactly a cup of tea for Ella. Thinking she is a spoiled Californian brat, they think she does not understand how it was for the Morrison siblings when they were in the orphanage. But Ella isn't the only one who has a fairy tale happening; her boy best friend, Tyler Darrin, apparently has hots for Roxy. Calling Ella "Tink"and making Braidon jealous, Tyler is the sparkle to the story. And did I mention Derric Matthews, the gay guy? With a abnormal perky behavior, it is easily depicted that he is *ahem*, gay. Of course we cannot forget the evil Elisha Cuthbert, who firts shamelessly with the guys. Although the story is not completed yet, I anticipate everyday of updates of "Breaking A Promise"!

Into Hiding by jumpgrl356
Into Hiding » by jumpgrl356 reviews
Summary Provided by the Author:
17 year old FBI agent Natalie Burton is forced to hide in an all boy's boarding school because a notorious drug lord is after her. Romance springs up between her and her roomate, but then her old partner returns, determined to win her heart.
W. S.'s Reviewing:
An action-packed spy romance, not only does it feature adventures, there is also a large space for romance to occur. A major love triangle featuring Natalie's roommate Matt and her old partner Jake Alderman takes place. It's quite humorous how Matt is in denial because he thinks Natalie's a boy and maybe if he could be gay. Personally, I can't stand Matt because he's not too "manly" enough for me. He's sweet and all, but Jake's way more maler. I mean, he's hot, he's strong, and he cares for Natalie more than anyone. Even to the point that he would give her up so she could be happy. While reading this, my heart keeps on beating so fast when the action (and of course, the romance) takes place. A dangerous man planning to kill Natalie and having two knights (okay, a knight and a random guy who just happens to be her boyfriend) protecting her satisfy me more than enough. If you want to find out about how Jake and Natalie get together, make sure to read "Into Hiding"!

The Heaven I Found in Hell by Songs of an Angel
The Heaven I Found in Hell » by Songs of an Angel reviews
Summary Provided by the Author:
Alex is a Victoria’s Secret model that is forced to go to Boarding School, and being downright gorgeous, she can make any guy turn head over heels in love with her. But why is she having a hard time with her room mate's handsome brother?
W. S.'s Reviewing:
Have I mentioned how hawt these characters must be? A fictional Vic's model placed in a rich high-end boarding sounds good, but if you add the super cute soccer player in, you'll get a great story! Nathan Adams is so sweet that the play girl Alexandra Levi would give up all the Armani models swooning for her. Did I mention "boarding" school? Yes you guessed it, Alex did not want to go because she must take a year off of her very successful celebrity life. But don't worry everyone, Nathan matches her status better than anyone else's, being a billion-dollar heir himself. With multiple kiss/makeout scenes, not always between our favorite pairs, it makes you blush like crazy and want a Nathan-type guy for yourself. I have to admit, sometimes I think Alex is a bit of a snob, often using "F-Y-I" and "I'm a supermodel" in her dialogue. But Nathan has (somewhat) taught her well. Their multiple fights make you cringe and yell "just make up already", but what's fun in no drama? Before they even go out, the couple-type actions take place with not-so-friendly hugs and constant flirting. Songs of an Angel makes love taste like a chocolate cake with an overdose of caramel filling. If you want some "celebrity" genre, make sure to read "The Heaven I Found in Hell"!

For the Love of the Game by i found nemo
For the Love of the Game » by i found nemo reviews
Summary Provided by the Author:
She's a football obsessed cheerleader who ends up coaching the school team. He thinks her place is on the sidelines. Mutual hatred? Yep. Sometimes the last person you want to be with is the one person you can't resist.
W. S.'s Reviewing:
"For the Love of the Game" shines more than Angelina Jolie and Brad Pit combined! The ever so funky Shelly Sinclair and cocky Brendon Miller makes people gush over them (and their mothers do despite their annoyance at the beginning of it). A unique work, i found nemo makes the girly Shelly coach a bunch of hot football players. Being their new coach, she not only do they lead the team to victory (oops, spoiler), Shelly is also able to give them all a personality makeover. And most importantly, catching the heart of the school king, Brandon Miller. Chelsey Smith is the ultimate Sharpay to "For the Love of the Game". I have to admit, my favorite character is Brendon's sister, Morgan. A smart, yet head-strong girl acts as the Cupid and the creator of Team BS (Brendon-Shelly) charms readers. Both of the main characters find themselves hating each other to the point that they do childish (sometimes totally hot) pranks on each other. Brendon finds himself attracted to his "coach", Shelly and surprisingly, can act pretty sweet rather than a jerk. Even the people who hate reading this would turn into a bookworm (and I have proven this theory). With i found nemo's hot variaty of guys, reader's can dream about their prince charming as I hope to find. Well, it is every girl's dream, right? There is a sequel, "Accidentally in Love". It is very well written, but (here comes the spoiler) Brendon and Shelly broke up in it! It's obvious they will get together, but the author hasn't updated since April 22th, 2007. Poop, hunh? I'd advise you to also listen to the song mentioned, "Just the Girl" by The Click Five (at playlist.com or something) because I swear it totally matches the ever so great "For the Love of the Game"!

Against All Odds by Myrika
Against All Odds » by Myrika reviews
Summary Provided by the Author:
Raleigh Chase thinks guys are dogs. Her older brother's best friend Ryan Henderson claims that he can make any girl, including Raleigh, fall for him. Their bet's on for four months. Can they prove each other wrong?
W. S.'s Reviewing:
Cute and a bit clinched, but hey, a girl has to have a daily supplement of an 100% romance work. A complete novel, Myrika depicts all the characters with unique personalities. With Raleigh as a headstrong feminist and Ryan as an absolutely delicious hottie, the chemistry in this book sizzles more than that beefy meat grilling at a BBQ party. Being in denial, it is sometimes painful to read about Raleigh pushing her feelings for that divine blond readers love. Then again, pain can cause love, right? Most would think that Ryan is one of those perfect rich socialite, but being so good can have flaws. Having a ignorant brother and a mother who thinks that teens are sex-crazy (and find quite... interest in that) can be pretty crazy. Falling in love with your best friend's sister is pretty cute of him. Let's describe the girls' fave jock boy who we all go ga ga over: Ryan. Popular? Check. Rich? Check. Looks? Check. Free? Definitely not. Back off girls, he is totally Raleigh's. He may seem confident, but he can be insecure. Wouldn't you, if you were a guy in love with a girl who can't stand a human with a y-chromosome? Funny how that works. Funny how you're still reading this and not reading the story yourself! Sure, it's long but it's definitely worth it. The wonderful author, Myrika even has a sequel called "Everybody Hates Logan" featuring Ryan's ever loved yet a jerk, brother. Get your daily dose of sweet romance by reading "Against All Odds"!
