Rivulet by Jamie Magee
Expected publication: October 7, 2013

Unfathomable forces have always contested Genevieve Indiana Falcon, known as Indie. The curse of her cold touch entraps her just as the grief ignited in her past torments her. Yet, her mysterious ability to dream while awake saturates her in the belief that she was not always anguished. There is hope that one day a true peace in her soul can be found. 

Foolishly, Indie assumes she has contained her life in an odd balance, and she cherishes the visions she sees of the enigmatic boy that held her in a lost time, but can never reach. She grieves for a life she fears she'll never possess, and that grief is a weapon she uses against her aunt who stands between her and her inheritance. 

Weeks away from her twenty-first birthday, the date where she would assume control over her family legacy, a night terror robs Indie of the balance she was clinging to. Like the dream she had before she lost her family, it predicts a fatal catastrophe on the horizon. The fight between life and death, good and evil, began the moment her thundering heart awoke her. 

Everything changed after that dream. The one thing that keeps her curse at bay is stolen, and then the enigmatic boy arrives in the flesh. Face to face with her fiery born-again lover Indie realizes that the only way she can prevent the tragedy before her is to surrender everything she was, is, and could be. 

Can she bend the laws of nature and fight the improbability that fire and ice could ever be one? As far as Indie is concerned, there is not a myth, spoken fate, or curse that is stronger than her stubborn desire to have it all ... including him.

Darra's Review:

 

I have loved all of Jamie's book. They are so detailed and is non stop till the end of the book. As usual Jamie has another great book with Rivulet. She does not write books you speed thru. She tells a story that gives hints to the whole of how these characters belong to each other.

I loved her two best friends. You cannot describe loyalty unless to have Mason and Gavin in the sentence. And Phoenix...A love that lasts a lifetime..and more. I will leave it at that. There are many characters in the book you will like, of course Indie, and I would make a book about each one. So you will have to read the book to get acquainted with them.

I really don't have anything bad to say about the book. As with all her books, it makes you think. And I like to have a book that makes your mind work. Hate to have snail brain after reading a story!

My rating for the book will be a 4.3



 

 

About Jamie

Jamie Magee has always believed that each of us have a defining gift that sets us apart from the rest of the world, she has always envied those who have known from their first breath what their gift was. Not knowing hers, she began a career in the fast paced world of business. Raising a young family, and competing to rise higher in that field would drive some to the point of insanity, but she always found a moment of escape in a passing daydream. Her imagination would take her to places she’d never been, introduce her to people she’s never known. Insight, her debuting novel, is a result of that powerful imagination. Today, she is grateful that not knowing what defined her, led her on a path of discovery that would always be a part of her.

EMBODY by Jamie Magee!!!!

Synopsis:

Not many Scorpio’s are known for their patience, and Willow Haywood is no different. Her only desire is to love Landen Chambers and redeem the lost souls of Esterious, but the path to that desire is long, dark and dangerous...
Before Willow’s life had a chance to balance the sudden revelations and grief she had to endure to get to Chara a disturbing discovery is made. A photo, one that shows Willow blissfully embracing the flawless image of Drake Blakeshire; giving her not only proof that she had lived before, but that she had loved him. 
Running away from the memory of Drake’s hypnotizing touch, and the prophecy set before her seemed like the logical thing to do. That is, until a dark dream reignites her passion to save the hopeless dimension of Esterious. Willow struggles to find patience – to learn everything she needs to know before she faces Drake again, but her eagerness is dangerous and one step in the wrong direction takes everything and everyone away from her – the only way to survive this trial is for Willow to remember who she is and what she really wants out of this life.

Darra's Review:

This series is amazing. I am reading the 4th book now. I have to tell you that these books are intense. I don't think I have ever bored in the 3 books I have read far. Both Willow and Landen go to into the city Delen to help the people that hold sorrow in their minds. The two of them see a woman crying on the road in Charra. When they go to Delen they find her along the road with her dying sister. Willow takes over her sisters body and ends up getting stuck. Landon can't get to her since she now doesn't remember who she is.
It goes into more detail and she ends up at Drakes palace. This is where your feelings change for Drake. Despite the dark he represents he loves Willow so much all he wants to do is take care of her so she will stay by his side. She is stuck in a dying body and only has a few days before it dies. She has to get out and remember who she is.
The ending is tragic and wonderful at the same time. The older sister, Stella ends up finding her soul mate. But I can't tell you who it is.
I still love Landon and all he does for Willow but now I can't help leaving a place of my heart for Drake. So sad. :-(
I would give this book a 4.3. However I have read the first 3, starting the forth book. So far I would give the series a 4.4. I am already afraid of book four. I can already see myself screaming out loud at Willow.

Sunny's Review:

I love this series. I am so excited to read it and can't wait to get to each book. If you have not read Insight go get it now. It is free on bn.com and amazon. This series is a little bit different than what we have been reading.  There are spoilers so make sure that you do not read any further if you have not read Insight!!

So you know that Willow and Landen are soul mates and have been in each other's dreams since they were children. Unfortunately, Drake thinks that Willow is really his soul mate and continues to try to get her to come to him. Landen and Willow are trying to figure out all of their insights and how to use them to help the people of Esterious. I like this book because you get to see them learning what to do and not to do. You also get to see a little bit more about life in Charra. 

You know that I love Landen and Drake just comes off so sleazy in Insight. Well, Jamie goes ahead and throws you a curveball in this book. You get to see a little bit more of Drake and what he is really feeling. There are parts that make me just want to go hug him (and we all know how much I hate touching!).  You get to see some interaction b/t Willow and Drake and you find out that not everything is a black and white as it seems. I could not put this book down. I mean I was up until 2 am b/c as soon as I was done with this book I started Image which is the next book. You will see that review soon.
I would rate this book a 4.2.

Seriously--READ THIS SERIES!! Then read the See Series!!! 

THIS WEEK!!!

So it is already Tuesday and let me tell you this week is flying FAST!!! This week is SUPPOSED to be REREAD week but as you know...it never turns out that way!!! So just to keep you up to date on what I am doing (I know you are dying with anticipation!)...

What I have read since last Wednesday...

1. Wait for You by Jennifer L. Armentrout writing as J. Lynn. If you have not read this book you really need to. I LOVE Cam. He isn't blond but he is blue eyed. Soccer player...YUMMY! Anyways, this is a new adult book and I can honestly say that I have NEVER read a book by Jennifer that I don't like. She is really awesome and you seriously need to look into ALL her books!  She is writing this story from Cam's POV and I CAN'T WAIT!!





2.  Hopeless by Colleen Hoover. Another author that has all GREAT books! If you
have not read anything by her go pick one. You can't go wrong. I personally like Hopeless better than Slammed but it is just barely better. I reread Hopeless in anticipation of Losing Hope coming out this week (Holder's POV!!!). It is on my to read list!!!

3.  Embody by Jamie Magee!! I know this is not a reread but I HAD TO!!! I love Landen and Willow and couldn't help myself. Look for this review to be out soon. I can't get enough of the Insight Series! Jamie has written an AWESOME world that I would love to live in. (I will tell you more soon)

4. The Party by Katie Ashley. Another new on but kinda old b/c it is a short prequel
to The Proposition. Just reminded me that I kinda love Aidan!! If you have read The Proposition and The Proposal by Katie Ashley I totally recommend The Party. It is the one where Emma shoots Aidan down...so AWESOME!! You also get to see her fight with Connor & how she is dealing with the loss of Travis (so sad but worth it).

5.  Darra and I both read a certain ZOMBIE book that will be a blog stop tomorrow. (make sure you check it out)  You can see what we thought there.

6.  I am now reading Fear of Falling by S. L. Jennings. I am REALLY REALLY LOVING IT. I will have a review up for it as soon as I finish it. If you have not read the Dark Light series GO GET IT!!! This book is different from that series but SO GOOD. Blaine is so close to perfect...southern accent, big truck, tattoos...unfortunately brown hair and brown eyes...oh well...what can you do.

Now what to do...I am pretty sure that I am going to be done with Fear of Falling tonight if not definitely tomorrow. So I am trying to figure out who I need to revisit. I am thinking Braden from On Dublin Street. I really like Joss too so that is probably a good one...I ALWAYS want to go back and revisit Phillip and Danny from That Boy and That Wedding...I am pretty sure That Baby is supposed to be coming soon...I really want to go back to Barrons and Mac in the Fever Series (that is a 5 book commitment right there...so worth it!!!) Or there is Remy from Real (Darra just finished that one), Jonah from Fighting for Flight, Woods from Twisted Perfection, Alexander from the Healers, Marcus from Cautious...

So many FREAKING good choices...I don't know what to do...hmmm....so I guess you guys can pick if you want...you have until tomorrow!!!

Flash Back Reading Week

We are so grateful to be able to get a sneak read of many great books lately. However there are just a few old book boyfriends that I want to reread. I had my vacation planned out to do so.

However, Sunny & I have been very lucky to be able to read both Series that Jamie Magee has out, The See Series and Insight Series. Which are both fantastic. I have read the first book of the Insight Series and the first 2 of See.

And here it is. I am putting aside all my past boyfriends to continue reading some of my favorite guys. Landon, Daven, Drake, Silas and Britain from both series. So you will be seeing us post up all her books this week with our fantastic reviews.

INSIGHT!!! GIVEAWAY!!

Before that fateful summer night, Willow had balanced the insight of emotion, and the vivid images. That night, the figure in her nightmare marked her wrist with a star, giving her father no choice but to tell Willow a family secret that would abruptly change life, as she knew it, forever. Before Willow had time to absorb the shock of her father's secret, her soul mate that had shared every stunning dream with her, found her, and darkness captured her closest friends. In order to save them, she must weave through broken myths and the undeniable power of the Zodiac. In the end, Willow discovers that at the moment of our birth we are all given a divine gift.

Darra:

I won't lie, I loved this book. Super excited about it and already have read the second book in the series of See. Not trying to be a spoiler but the characters overlap in both books. I love Landon and the fact he comes to see her every night in her dreams is unbelievable. Absolute true love before they meet. Landon does all these things for her before they even meet and it makes your heart melt.

Willow also has nightmares of Drake as well. I can't tell you how he seems to interlock with her life, but it goes back decades. I do like Drake in a deep down dark way. Not all of this is his fault. He has to live with the life that he was given to him. And if that means bringing Willow, the girl he loves, to Hell(essentially) than that is what he has to do.

I do not want to give you more of the story that will ruin it. I love all the characters, Landon's & Willow's family. There is so many things that happen that are unexpected and really I can't compare any other books to this. I like reading books that have a original story. And this series is it.

I could say I recommend the book however that is a understatement. This is a MUST READ. A book that you will non stop read. You can't put it down.
I give this book a 4.5. Can't wait to read the rest of the series!  

Sunny:

I really loved this book. Willow has a gift and tries to help people as she sees them needing her. She finds out her whole life is about to change. The guy in her nightmare marks her so that he can find her. Her parents tell her they are moving to a different world to keep her safe. She figures out a way to get a message to Landen so that he can come find her. I like Willow because she isn't afraid to do what she has to do to live and in the end survive. 

Landen...LOVE him! He has been in Willow's dreams forever. He knows they are soul mates but his family has not allowed him to go look for her. When she gets a message to him he telling him she needs him he goes to her. From that moment they can't be separated. Landen is awesome in that Willow has been it for him since day 1. He built them a house and has basically been waiting for her so they can be together. I mean how perfect can a guy be! 

I am really looking forward to reading the rest of this series. If you remember we read See by Jamie Magee not too long ago and loved that book too. These series to come together at certain points but then go back to their own lines again . I can't tell you how excited I am to have found these books. They are a little different from what we have been reading and I love it! Seriously go get these books. Darra and I have been trying to fit reading the rest of the books into our schedules. We pulled the blog calendar so that we could find out what review books could be put off.

Forgetting who you are, your ambitions, your passions is crippling….but remembering – embracing your purpose with a new sense of determination is more than empowering….it's life altering. Charlie Myers is on a life altering path that will cause the dammed to humble in silence.

One night…just a few friends, how could it go so wrong? That was the question seventeen year old Charlie Myers was asking when she found herself in the ER. Outwardly nothing was wrong with Charlie, she was a vision of perfect heath, internally she was battling a raging headache…one the doctor told her she would overcome shortly, but Charlie knew something else was wrong …very wrong.

Part of her had been stolen…she was missing memories. Those memories were sacred. They held the key to her sanity. They told her that the sinister whispers, the shadows that came to life before her were not as ominous as she felt they were. They held the bond with her late father, a famed musician. They caused her to forget the one talent that allowed her to face the darkness that haunted her every waking hour. They also masked a much deeper bond, the face of the one that had stolen her heart, long before the age of seventeen.

Sitting in the ER with her angry mother she couldn’t figure out what she was missing, or even how. Her thoughts told her that she needed to protect Britain, a friend of hers, but that didn’t make any sense – Britain didn’t need to be protected from anyone, he was strong, young, and absurdly wealthy. Charlie also knew that even though her friend Bianca called Charlie her best friend, she didn’t trust her …she was almost sure she despised her, but she couldn’t figure out why, or understand how random thoughts were telling her that she adored both Britain and Bianca – that they were her saviors – that they brought silence to the unstoppable whispers, but the silence scared Charlie. In her mind anyone or anything that could bring silence to something that dark could not be good.

Charlie wanted to stay in NY, figure out what she was missing, why, and who was behind it all, but her mother had other plans. Against her will, Charlie was sent to Salem to live with her sister, within that small town Charlie found her memories and so much more.

Her story begins now.

Darra's Review:

You will like this book. Charlie is one of a kind. She is different than most main characters I read. I had such conflicting feelings for Britain. I really want to like him but you know there is something wrong. Charlie should punch Bianca in the face. Talking about a bad BFF. The main thing that Charlie her sane is music. That is where Draven comes in. He was her past and he sings. Mmmm. More musicians. Everyone will love Draven. He is the perfect boyfriend. In fact you will love all her previous friends. They were always there for her before her brain wash. Read the book. It is unique and I am looking forward to the rest of the series.

I will give it a 4.3.

Sunny's Review:

I really like this book! It was different and for some reason I love memory loss books. Charlie is a pretty good lead character. She basically knows that something is wrong and can't figure out what. I like that while she feels like she should be trying to help Britain she pays attention to her instincts and tries to stay away from Bianca. I love Draven too. He is awesome and surprisingly patient. I don't think that I would be able to be as calm if I were him. I was a little nervous when the book kept centering around music but it ended up being different and not a band book. I was literally yelling at Charlie towards the end of the book--it was like when you are watching the movie and you know something is about to happen and you yell "Don't go OUTSIDE!!!!" but they do...yep I was yelling at her. It was a really good book and I am going to be reading the rest of the series. The next 2 are out so you won't have to wait FOREVER!!! (You know my feelings on waiting on books...drives me CRAZY!)

I would give this book 4.5 stars out of 5...so go get it (or enter to WIN it)!!!!
