Cover reveal In Control by Chrystal Serowka

Saturday, August 31, 2013 0 comments

SYNOPSIS:

I wasn’t a typical teenager.

I’d been through more rough patches than a weed eater.

I didn’t grow up behind a white picket fence.

I didn’t go to Sunday school.

My body was no temple, though it was worshiped by many.

Girls kept their boyfriends away from me for good reason.

I was desired.

Wanted.

Admired.

While my friends were following the rules, I was breaking them.

I’m careless.

Reckless.

Uncontrollable.

I don’t apologize for who I am.

I embrace it.

But all things must come to an end.

He was my new beginning.

Expected Publication: October 27, 2013

At the beginning I wasn't sure how to rate this book.I had some problems with the reading of this but still I think that is a good story!!

This is a story about Cadence...

She is a student who had a bad moment in her junior year in hight school and she was in juvenile detention for ten mounths.

Now she is back...but without friends..Her parents do not trust her anymore and they have her limited..She feels sad and alone.

Until the moment she met Mark her 28 years old math teacher!!

From the beginning there is an attraction between them..He tries to approach her and he makes whatever he can,in order to make her feelcomfortable and nice...

He wants her to come back to normal and find herself..

"You're the saddest thing I've ever seen Cadence.The loneliest thing I've ever seen.And any chance I get to see you smile,I'm gona take it."

They know that nothing should happened between them..but soon they are together..

Mark is so sweet and cute!You can't read the book and don't like this character!!He cares a lot about Cadence and he showed his feelings from the beginning!

Cadence on the other hand...I din't like her a lot..at the beginning she was funny and smartass but sometimes she just acted weird.

The only thing that I didn't find nice was the reference to the Christianism. I am Christian too but I didn't like to read so many details all the time..

The book ends with clifhunger ughhhh...I need the next book soon!!I must learn what will happen!!!

In the international bestseller REAL, the unstoppable bad boy of the Underground fighting circuit finally met his match. Hired to keep him in prime condition, Brooke Dumas unleashed a primal desire in Remington “Riptide” Tate as vital as the air he breathes . . . and now he can’t live without her.

Brooke never imagined she would end up with the man who is every woman’s dream, but not all dreams end happily ever after, and just when Remington needs her the most, Brooke makes a discovery that forces her away from the ringside. Now with distance and darkness between them, the only thing left is to fight for the love of the man she calls MINE.

“I belong to him. He belongs to me. Our love is all-consuming, powerful, imperfect, and real…

I’ve left everything behind. My family. My friends. I’ve become a dreamer, and he is my one and only dream. What he wants, I want to give, and what I can give, I want him to take. There is nothing on this earth that will take me away from him. He’s my fighter, but I will fight even harder to be with him…”
