Getting Dirty By Mia Storm








Dirty
A poem by Blaire Leon


If sex is dirty, why would I do it with someone I love?
If sex is dirty, then didn’t we all come from the dirt?
What if I like the dirt?
What if I want to get dirty?
What if I want to roll in the mud until I’m so fucking filthy that I’ll never be clean again?

When twenty-five-year-old graduate assistant Caiden Brenner asked Blaire Leon how old she was, she said she was a senior. He chose to believe she meant in college. They connect over Lord Byron’s Don Juan and, as their conversations become increasingly thicker with sexual innuendo, Caiden finds himself obsessing over a totally off-limits undergrad who’s bold, beautiful, brilliant, and one of the most passionate poets he’s ever met.

But it turns out Blaire hasn't been totally honest. She's the seventeen-year-old valedictorian of her high school class, taking courses at Sierra State while awaiting her acceptance to Stanford.

Will Caiden get too deeply into Blaire to back away before he finds out the truth? Or will their connection be enough to seduce him into risking his entire future on Jail Bait?



******* My Review*****

I really enjoy this books. The characters were well made and there was not so much, drama and conflict as what you expect, but what I liked the most about it is that it was realistic. Storm, really got into things that made me think a lot, especially about those ridiculous society standards about  who should be dating who and is right or wrong when it comes to love, Blaire and Caiden are bold characters that you can really related to. The most powerful message for me is that Love is love and it just happen, it knows not rules or ages, when it hits you, you just have to accepted, regardless the situations.

EXCERPT
Without realizing I’m doing it, I find I’m leaning toward her. I catch myself and stop. But before I can pull back, she closes the rest of the distance and presses her lips hard against mine.
Any thought that I shouldn’t be doing this evaporates like fog in a stiff breeze at the taste of her mouth, moving hungrily on mine. She’s scotch and fire on my tongue as she devours me. Right or wrong, I’m powerless to stop her.
Her fingers run down my face to my chest as she opens her mouth wider, inviting me deeper inside. I take the invitation, tasting as much of her as she’ll give me. Her hands tug at the hem of my shirt and my breath catches when cold fingers meet my warm abs.
I press harder against her, drawing her closer, and fire rips through my veins as our tongues and hands explore the new landscapes of each other’s mouths and bodies.
But a shard of coherent thought finally manages to pierce the bubble I’ve constructed to justify what I’m doing. “You’re a student,” I say against her mouth.
Her lips skim to my ear. “I like you, Caiden,” she whispers, and her saying my name with that hot breath, that wet mouth, is nearly enough to break my resolve. “I like you a lot.”
I take her by the shoulders and gently peel her away, my heart hammering out African drumbeats against my ribcage. “You’re so damn incredible, but I can’t do this. It’s totally against university rules. I’m sorry.”
“You’re not my professor,” she says, her expression wounded. “If we like each other, I don’t see why it should matter.”
“I’m Dr. Duncan’s graduate assistant. My boss is your professor. It’s a conflict of interest, since I do most of his grading.”
“So you are conflicted.” It’s clear from the predatory shift her expression takes that she hears that I’m trying to convince myself as much as her.
I drop my head against the headrest. “I am.”
She leans closer again, her breast pressing against my arm through the thin cotton of her top. “I’ll never say anything. No one needs to know,” she whispers, her breath feathering over my neck.

Paper Towns by John Green Book Review



Paper Towns by John Green just became one of my favorite books. John Green did it again, the characters of the books are so well define and you can just identify yourself we them all, we all have a friend like Margo, who shows the world a person but behind closed doors is nothing like it, somebody that is different that enjoys and appreciate the little things in life like having a good time, but at the same time knows, around who they can be truly themselves. I enjoy this books from beginning to end. Although everyone may see the meaning of the story in a different way, for me it was all about the things that we are willing to do for those who we care about, and the things that we are willing to risk for them. Paper Towns is an amazing story I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to enjoy a great adventure with a beautiful meaning. And the movie will come out this summer and I honestly can’t wait to see how they bring this amazing story to life!.


Did you read the book? did you like it? Are you excited for the movie?

Finding Haven by T.A.Foster Book Review





BOOK SUMMARY:


Power. Money. Control. Love.
He has all but one.


When movie star, Evan Carlson, discovers his girlfriend’s picture with another man splashed on the cover of gossip magazines, he decides he’s had enough of his fishbowl life and attempts to outrun the media frenzy his relationships have become. Driving until the road stops, he ends up on the remote and quaint Perry Island, where a heartthrob can blend in like the locals and be a beach bum as long as he wants. All that changes when Evan meets Haven Owen, aspiring songwriter and the girl he just can’t get enough of. A summer romance turns into something much deeper and Evan gets tangled in his own web of lies to keep Haven in his life. But when his ex tracks him down, Evan learns there are some things you just can’t outrun.


Is the cost of love, losing all control?

The Duff Book & Movie Review

About the book: The Duff


Seventeen-year-old Bianca Piper is cynical and loyal, and she doesn't think she's the prettiest of her friends by a long shot. She's also way too smart to fall for the charms of man-slut and slimy school hottie Wesley Rush. In fact, Bianca hates him. And when he nicknames her "Duffy," she throws her Coke in his face.


But things aren't so great at home right now. Desperate for a distraction, Bianca ends up kissing Wesley. And likes it. Eager for escape, she throws herself into a closeted enemies-with-benefits relationship with Wesley.


Until it all goes horribly awry. It turns out that Wesley isn't such a bad listener, and his life is pretty screwed up, too. Suddenly Bianca realizes with absolute horror that she's falling for the guy she thought she hated more than anyone.”


First of all I have to say that Kody Keplinger is a genius I LOVED this book and the whole idea of it, I read it in two days and those sleepless hours were totally worth it. And what I like the most about the book is that it’s a whole new idea is fresh and not a little cliche, plus I love me some Wesley Rush,also you can really relate to the characters in the book and what I think is the most important thing in the book is the message,it doesn't matter if your friends are prettier than you, or what other people says about you, as long as you know who you are, you just have to be true to yourself and nothing else should really matter.  


I also had the chance to watch a special early screening of the movie that was hosted by Robbie Amell aka Wesley Rush.


As a fangirl I had to admit that no matter what I will always say that the book was better that is just the way things have to be, but  this movie was really close to change that, The movie is based on the book but  there is a few changes, and I think that those changes made so much sense and the story that is told in the movie is so sweet and romantic instead of just hot and intense like the one in the book and I liked that  a lot because we actually get to see how Bianca and Wesley become a thing.


I think the cast is just perfect, I mean who better than Robbie Amell to play Wesley Rush? yeah, NOBODY!, and the coolest thing happened at the Screening because I got the chance to meet him and I've been such a big fan of his since I was a little girl, I also met his fiance and Chasing life’s star Italia Ricci and she was so nice and lovely!.


Mae Whitman as Bianca: She is so perfect for the role everything I imagine while reading the book.


Bella Thorne as Madison: I loved Bella as the mean girl, and I also laughed a lot with her role.


Bianca Santos as Casey:I like Bianca Santos a lot she has been on the fosters and happyland and I enjoy both shows and it’s always good to see a fellow Latina well represented on the big screen.


 Skyler Samuels as Jessica: Skyler  played the role really well and I think that her character in the movie was really close to how it was described in the book.

The movie is coming out on February 20 and I already have plans to see it again with my friends, because I liked it so much and highly recommend the movie to you all.
