Wow! Can you believe how quickly 2013 came and went?!? This year has been a fantastic reading adventure for us here at Waves of Fiction, so we wanted to take a moment to share some of our favorite reads for 2013.
Several of us on The Waves Team decided to get together to share our favorite book of 2013. But that’s not all!! One lucky winner will get the chance to win one of the books we’ve spotlight here, so take a look and be sure to review the giveaway details below!
I have to say that in 2013 my biggest obsession was the Cut & Run Series. I love.love.love the dynamic duo of Ty Grady and Zane Garrett. They are by far my favorite fictional couple at the moment. I've given every installment FIVE EXPLOSIVE STARS and the series continues to get better and better as each story unfolds.
Cut & Run is the first installment to this fast and furious series of mystery, intrigue and a special brand of FBI romance. To meet these two characters is to fall in love at first pass. They are an explosive force as a pair, but most importantly their stand-alone presence is just as powerful. They command each page and there is no downtime when you take their journey. I say again… absolutely fast and furious!
Truly suspenseful, addicting and AMAZING!!
One of the best NA books I've read - absolutely loved this one. I loved every single minute of this book. The story unfolded so beautifully and sucked me in immediately that I didn’t want to put it down. I felt so many different emotions while reading it – especially at the point in the book where it threw me for a loop. Not only was it a wonderful romance with enough steam thrown in – there were some serious laugh-out-loud moments. The banter between Ashton and Nathan was perfect and so realistic. And the tender and serious moments were a total surprise that I was not expecting going into reading this book – but made it all the more wonderful! I wanted to weep at times because these two were so PERFECT together and I was cheering them on to get their HEA. This is a new favorite author to me and I will be anxiously awaiting her next book!
The Amour et Chocolat
series has completely bewitched and seduced me! Paris, chocolate, and decadent desserts
coupled with some of the most sensual romances I have ever read, how could I
not fall in love?!!
I highly recommend
all the books in the series, but my absolute FAVORITE was The ChocolateTouch. It’s my top romance read for 2013!
Oh, my stars, the romance was so utterly
HOT and sensual! Dominique and Jaime’s
story was a bit darker and emotional than the other stories, but that made me
love it even more. I dare you not to swoon with knees buckling in weakness
over Dominique Richard: dark, broody, big and gorgeous, with a soft marshmallow
heart! Each of the stories are companions, so you don’t have to read the others
to enjoy any one, but I’d recommend reading The
Chocolate Thief before this one, because it gives a little history on the
main characters, and because it's amazing as well!
Stars & Stripes by Abigail Roux
I really tried to think of another book to post as my favorite of the year, but I just can't not chose the Cut & Sun series! Arlene picked it above and I have to agree with her. This series is definitely my favorite of the year and I know without a doubt it will be my favorite next year as well with the upcoming release of Ball & Chain.
This series has it all and so much more that I never knew I was missing! Ty and Zane are prefect together and their stories never disappoint. Stars & Stripes is my favorite in the series so far because in this one we get to see their relationship take that extra step. With Stetson's and tigers galore this story flew off the pages and I have been picking it up continually throughout the holiday season to reread my favorite parts. Which by the way is basically the whole book! Love love love this series!!

ReplyDeleteTry by Ella Frank!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite reads are Bitterblue by Kristin Cashore and The Casual Vacancy :)
ReplyDeleteThe Chocolate Touch´s cover reminds me of Anna and the French Kiss´s cover, because of the two persons kissing in front of the Eiffel tower, but like it! And Cut & Run sounds like an amazing read to me :)
I didn't think of that, Dinky, but you're right that cover does remind me of Anna and the French Kiss, which I loved as well. The Chocolate Touch's cover is one of my favorite from 2013! :)
DeleteThe Edge Of Never was my favorite this year
