Wanted by Kelly Elliott

Ellie and Jeff are brother and sister that have had a horrible childhood. Their dad ran off and their mom is a drunk that did nothing but tell Ellie no one would ever love her or stay with her. Ellie has heard that her whole life so she believes it.

Jeff loves Ellie and always trys to protect her. On the last day of school she catches her boyfriend sleeping with another girl and calls Jeff to pick her up early. When Jeff arrives he finds Ellie crying and goes after the boy.

This is where Ellie meets Jeff's best friend Gunner. Ellie and Gunner both have an instant connection. Gunner likes Ellie and wants to date her but her insecurities get in the way. Can Gunner help Ellie get past her insecurities or will Ellie end up alone? You will have to read to find out.

In wanted we also get a little bit of Jeff and Ellie's best friend Ari's story. Ari and Jeff have always had a thing for each other. Ari wants to take it to the next level but Jeff is scared that it will not work and he will lose her as a friend. Can they work it out in the end or will Jeff's past come back to bite him.

This story shows that you can overcome your past and have a great future. I loved Ari and Ellie's friendship because they remind me of Tracy and myself. I totally have Ari's mouth and attitude. This book has just as many funny moments as serious ones. I give this book a 3 out of 5 stard and can't wait to start Saved to see what is going on with the gang.

Hanging On (Jessica Brodie Diaries) by K.F. Breene

This series just keeps getting better, and I love it!!

In the first book Jessica was having a hard time finding her place in TX since she moved from LA. Things were difficult at first, she missed her friends but made new ones...including Adam, William's best friend. Adam treats Jessica like a sister, at first he did like her, but she only had eyes for William.

Things are going great for Jessica in this book, her job is prospering, she and William are together....she just misses her girls and also needs to find a way to make William's mom like her, since she isn't from money and that is all this small town knows. But she handles her own.

Finally William suggests to Gladis that Jessica needs her friends and they show up unexpectedly. These girls are crazy! Lump decides she will stay with Jessica in TX and find a job, etc. Adam knows exactly how to push her buttons. And with Lump knowing martial arts she lays it into Adam, but I believe there is a spark somewhere underneath all that pain in both of them.

When I say this has cowboys in it, there are some cowboys, yes, they come from money, but these are real men who work on their ranches, and William breeds bulls! Both Jessica and Lump manage to ride a small steer.

I found myself laughing at so many things in this book along with crying too. It's a great read. And I give it 4 stars. From the first book to this one, Jessica blossoms. I can't wait to read the third!
