Losing It Series by Cora Carmack
Book 1
Losing It
Sick of being the only virgin among her friends, Bliss Edwards decides the best way to deal with the problem is to lose it as quickly and simply as possible – a one-night stand. But her plan turns out to be anything but simple when she freaks out and leaves a gorgeous guy alone and naked in her bed with an excuse that no one with half-a-brain would ever believe. And as if that weren’t embarrassing enough, when she arrives for her first class of her last college semester, she recognizes her new theatre professor. She’d left him naked in her bed about 8 hours earlier.
Book 2
Faking It
Mackenzie “Max” Miller has a problem. Her parents have arrived in town for a surprise visit, and if they see her dyed hair, tattoos, and piercings, they just might disown her. Even worse, they’re expecting to meet a nice, wholesome boyfriend, not a guy named Mace who has a neck tattoo and plays in a band. All her lies are about to come crashing down around her, but then she meets Cade.
Cade moved to Philadelphia to act and to leave his problems behind in Texas. So far though, he’s kept the problems and had very little opportunity to take the stage. When Max approaches him in a coffee shop with a crazy request to pretend to be her boyfriend, he agrees to play the part. But when Cade plays the role a little too well, they’re forced to keep the ruse going. And the more they fake the relationship, the more real it begins to feel.
Novella #1.5
Keeping Her: A Losing It Novella (Losing It #1.5)
Garrick Taylor and Bliss Edwards managed to find their happily-ever-after despite a rather . . . ahem . . . complicated start. By comparison, meeting the parents should be an absolute breeze, right?But from the moment the pair lands in London, new snags just keep cropping up: a disapproving mother-in-law-to-be, more than one (mostly) minor mishap, and the realization that perhaps they aren’t quite as ready for their future as they thought.As it turns out, the only thing harder than finding love is keeping it.
Book 3
Finding It
Sometimes you have to lose yourself to find where you truly belong…
Most girls would kill to spend months traveling around Europe after college graduation with no responsibility, no parents, and no-limit credit cards. Kelsey Summers is no exception. She’s having the time of her life . . . or that’s what she keeps telling herself.
It’s a lonely business trying to find out who you are, especially when you’re afraid you won’t like what you discover. No amount of drinking or dancing can chase away Kelsey’s loneliness, but maybe Jackson Hunt can. After a few chance meetings, he convinces her to take a journey of adventure instead of alcohol. With each new city and experience, Kelsey’s mind becomes a little clearer and her heart a little less hers. Jackson helps her unravel her own dreams and desires. But the more she learns about herself, the more Kelsey realizes how little she knows about Jackson.
Coming Soon…
A Finding It Novella
Seeking Her: A Finding It Novella (Losing It #3.5)
This book is from Jackson’s POV. Set to release January 28, 2014
My Take on the Losing It Series:
This entire series is out-freaking-standing! I won the first book (Losing It) and kept putting off reading it. When I finally decided to read it, I was so mad at myself for not reading it sooner. I loved Bliss & Garrick’s story. Professor & student…super hot. I immediately read book two (Faking It), and fell hard for Cade & Max. I loved that she was the “bad boy” type and he was the “good guy” that her parents loved. I was so excited when book 1.5 came out (Keeping Her: A Losing It Novella). It was so awesome getting to see more of Garrick & Bliss’ story. It did however make waiting for book three (Finding It) excruciatingly hard. Kelsey & Jackson’s story was SO good! It was so up and down and adventurous…I Loved it! I felt like I was on their “Amazing Race” adventure with them. I cannot WAIT for Jackson’s POV in the upcoming novella (Seeking Her: A Finding It Novella). I HIGHLY recommend you read this entire series! Do it NOW!

Into the Deep by Samantha Young
Into the Deep by Samantha Young
Live young. Live hard. Love deep.
Charley Redford was just an ordinary girl until Jake Caplin moved to her small town in Indiana and convinced her she was extraordinary. Almost from day one Jake pulled Charley into the deep and promised he was right there with her. But when a tragic incident darkened Jake’s life he waded out into the shallows and left Charley behind.
Almost four years later Charley thinks she’s moved on. That is until she takes a study year abroad in Edinburgh and bumps into none other than Jake Caplin at a party with his new girlfriend. The bad-boy-turned-good attempts to convince Charley to forgive him, and as her best friend starts spending time with Jake’s, Charley calls a truce, only to find herself tumbling back into a friendship with him.
As they grow closer, the spark between them flares and begins playing havoc with their lives and relationships. When jealousy and longing rear their destructive heads, Charley and Jake struggle to come to grips with what they mean to one another.
And even if they work it out, there is no guarantee Charley will ever trust Jake to lead her back into the deep…
My Take
This book was breathtakingly amazing! Charley and Jake’s story was so original and heartbreaking. I loved how the author went back and forth between the past and present so that you really got to see the whole picture and truly feel the epic-ness of their relationship. My heart broke for them and the obstacles that they had to endure. I am not a big crier…but I couldn’t help but have tears streaming down my face several times throughout the book. This was a book that I could not put down. I wish I had read it the day it went live instead of waiting. The next book (Out of the Shallows) cannot come out quick enough! I HIGHLY recommend!
