BOOK/AUTHOR REC!!!

Alright, anyone that follows me on Twitter knows how I've been literally going bonkers for this author I discovered a couple of weeks ago.

It started when I picked up a book called, "Switch" from my local bookstore.  Just looking at the cover had me intrigued. I mean, the idea of a man at your feet? Yeah, definitely intrigued.

Then I read the synopsis...

Don’t think.
 
Don’t question.

Just do.

The anonymous note wasn’t for me. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not in the habit of reading other people’s mail, but it was just a piece of paper with a few lines scrawled on it, clearly meant for the apartment upstairs. It looked so innocent, but decidedly–deliciously–it was not.

Before replacing the note–and the ones that followed–in its rightful slot, I devoured its contents: suggestions, instructions, summonses, commands. Each was more daring, more intricate and more arousing than the last…and I followed them all to the letter.

Before the notes, if a man had told me what to do, I’d have told him where to go. But submission is an art, and there’s something oddly freeing about doing someone’s bidding…especially when it feels so very, very good.

But I find that the more I surrender, the more powerful I feel–so it’s time to switch up roles.

We play by my rules now.

Yeah, how the hell could I resist?!  This was such an enthralling book. There was no way not to get pulled into the life of the female protagonist.  It was so easy to relate to her that it was impossible not to imagine being her. 

Damn you Megan Hart! *snickers*

I am now officially fucked since I've purchased nearly all of her independent novels.  I worry about starting another one because I know I'll get nothing else done in the meantime. 

This is what happened when I read "Taking Care of Business" and "No Reservations"


These two books were a continued story about two couples that had to face a lot of obstacles in order to get their relationships to where they needed to be.  Naturally, the road was bumpy, but damn was it ever one hell of a ride.

Anyone that was following my tweets could see how much I was enjoying the books from all the different parts I kept sharing; which often ended up being parts involving some hot and steamy scenes.

So, if you're looking for an author/authors who aren't afraid to push the envelope, and who know exactly how to get all your pink girly bits twitching, then Megan Hart (and Lauren Dane) is for you.  Her books are the only thing that have managed to pry me away from my beloved fan fiction, and have completely and utterly distracted me from reality; as if that's a tough feat.

What is in a name?

I signed into my email this evening to find a very interesting message from my dear friend Cozzy.  In it, she simply shared the definition of her name found on www.urbandictionary.com....one of my damn favorite sites that Yneone always has me looking things up on....like chitlins *snort-giggle*

S'anywayz.....I thought to myself....Caro?  Let's look up your name and sees what we findz....

Carolyn
1. The feminine version of the name Charles meaning "the woman." Basically never printed on magnets, mugs or other souvenir paraphernalia. Often mistaken for Caroline, Carolina, Carol, Karen or Katherine.
  • I beg to differ on that one right there that's underlined. Although it's a damn hard name to find on shit, I have been pretty fucking successful across Canada. Seems like my country does love me...even if the feeling isn't always mutual. LOL

2. Hottest piece of ass. EVER.
  • *nods head* Hell to the yeah! I LOVE the person who made this entry. LOL!

3. A girl (or guy, but trust me, they're pretty rare) who is very funny, caring, extremely intelligent, talented, and not to mention absolutely beautiful.

In short, she is just perfect.

A Carolyn will get along with nearly anyone and always knows what to say to cheer you up. She is a great friend and would never ever betray you. She would care for you no matter what.

The name Carolyn translates to "song of happiness" (from the word "Carol".) It is also commonly confused with the name Caroline. A Carolyn is the kind of girl who, once you meet her, she will always be in your heart.
  • *sniffle* I hope so *sniffle*
So to my dear friend Cozzy Cozz....thank you for inspiring me to look myself up...it was a fucking treat.

So now I challenge you to look up your name and feel free to comment and share your definitions. I'd love to see if they brightened your day a little too. :D
