Najprije Elle Kennedy, onda Colleen Hoover, a sada i Karina Halle. Mislim da je vrijeme da  priznamo da Neptunovke znaju kako odabrati ljubavni roman koji �e �itateljima ostati u sje�anju. 
Kako smo napisali erotski ljubi�
engleski Smut, upravo je ono �to nam je ovog ljeta trebalo, a ako se jo� niste uspjeli uvjeriti da �e vam upravo on postati omiljeno �tivo 2018., samouvjereno tvrdim da �u vas ja uvjeriti da ga je vrijedno obo�avati.



Blake Crawford zdu�no se trudi polo�iti kolegij Kreativnog pisanja kako bi �to prije stekao diplomu i preuzeo o�ev biznis - malu, ali dobro poznatu obiteljsku knji�aru.
Amanda Newland �eli rasturiti na istom kolegiju kako bi roditeljima dokazala da je pisanje posao koji zavre�uje po�tovanje i mo�da �ak divljenje.

Ono �to ni jedan od njih ne �eli jest sudjelovati na zajedni�kom zadatku pisanja kratke pri�e. Ali morat �e.
Umi�ljeni seronja i u�togljena princeza morat �e udru�iti snage i uskladiti talente kako bi napisali pri�u koja bi im donijela najbolje ocjene.

A kad se poka�e da im to sasvim dobro ide, odlu�it �e zakora�iti u novu avanturu: odva�it �e se na pisanje erotskog romana.
No pisanje erotske literature uklju�uje razmi�ljanje o pr�astim guzama (poput Amandine) i mi�i�avim trbu�njacima (poput Blakeovih), �to na� dvojac tjera da po�ele neke od svojih scena staviti na test. Mo�e li seks u�ivo izgledati onako kako izgleda u romanima za odrasle?
I ho�e li ih znati�elja stajati partnerstva?
�to vi mislite? 


Black Crafword 



Jedno je sigurno: ovakvog romana nema na na�im prostorima. Jeste li ikad �itali ljubavno-erotski roman u kojem likovi poku�avaju napisati ljubavno-erotski roman? Ja mislim da niste. 

Jeste li se ikada zapitali za�to nekom autoru pada na pamet napisati ba� erotski roman? Mislite li da je to ne�to �to svatko mo�e napisati?
Znate li da se autori ljubavnih i erotskih romana �esto nalaze na meti kolega, kriti�ara i sebi bliskih ljudi jer "gube vrijeme" i talent na pisanje ne�ega �to drugi smatraju sme�em i �undom?
Iz udobnih fotelja nas koji sjedimo s ovakvom vrstom knjige u ruci, ti problemi djeluju toliko dalekima da ih mo�da uop�e ne shva�amo ozbiljno. Mi na�e omiljene autorice poznajemo kao uspje�ne �ene koje nam svojim perom golicaju misli i popravljaju subotnje ve�eri. 

�Nije lako biti pisac, to je vrlo te�ak posao. Te�i nego �to biste ikada
mogli zamisliti. No ono �to ga �ini jo� te�im jest �injenica da skoro svi
vi trenuta�no pi�ete s lako�om. Pi�ete ono �to vam srce nala�e. Jedine
pote�ko�e s kojima se sada suo�avate su strah od lo�e ocjene i stres zbog
ograni�enog vremenskog roka. Ali rije�i vam jo� dolaze prirodno, pri-
�e se prakti�ki same pi�u. U ovoj fazi jo� mo�ete, kao �to je rekao Hemingway, samo sjesti za pisa�u ma�inu i krvariti. No za mnoge pisce, i
sada se moram poslu�iti popularnim kli�eom, pisanje je poput va�enja
krvi iz kamena. I dalje ima� volju i �elju, no s vremenom i s iskustvom
dolazi i sve ve�a sumnja u sebe, a unutarnji kriti�ar postaje sve glasniji.
U�utkava tvoju kreativnost. Po�inje� se osje�ati kao da ti je zabranjeno
grije�iti."
  



Ba� �e nam zato ovaj roman, na jedan humoristi�an i zabavan na�in pokazati kako to�no nastaje jedan erotski ljubi�. Dva mlada i perspektivna autora koji te�e proslaviti se pisanjem fantasy romana napravit �e odlu�an i drasti�an korak i krenuti s pisanjem erotike. Od ideje do razra�enog poslovnog i financijskog plana; od brainstorminga koji po�inje kao obi�na zezancija do pikantnih naslova koji mame �itatelja; od likova do radnje, preko seksi scena, Blake i Amanda pribli�it �e nam proces nastajanja takozvanog smuta - erotske literature.

Dvoje mladih pisaca zavirit �e duboko u vlastitu ma�tu, dozvoliti najskrivenijim fantazijama da isplivaju na povr�inu i staviti na papir razmi�ljanja koja se mo�da ne bi usudili ni izgovoriti glasno.
Sigurna sam da �e vas posebno odu�eviti humor koji proizlazi iz razlika u mu�kom i �enskom razmi�ljanju o ljubavi, romantici i seksu. Nakon toga zadivit �e vas na�in na koji �e te razlike postati receptom za uspjeh u njihovom nastojanju.



Razmi�ljanjima i postupcima svojih likova Karina Halle vlastitim primjerom dokazuje da i ova vrsta literature itekako zahtjeva talent. Njezini likovi utjelovljuju muke svakog autora koji se nada da �e svoj roman jednog dana vidjeti u rukama odu�evljenog �itatelja. Sumnje, strahovi i nesigurnosti, sve �e to Amanda i Blake pre�ivljavati dok budu radili na svojem remek djelu.
Sve bude jo� gore nakon �to se u njihovu pri�u upetlja i - ljubav.

Ovo je new adult ljubavni roman u kojem likovi poku�avaju napisati ljubavni roman? Da vas pitam: mo�ete li zamisliti i�ta bolje?

Kendall Ryan, Kendall Ryan svuda oko mene. Izme�u novih romana koje izbacuje skoro na mjese�noj bazi i ljepotana koji se kod nas prevode i objavljuju, gotovo je nemogu�e ne �uti za nju. I ne zavoljeti ju na prvu. 
Cimer
je jo� jedan roman koji nam je ovog ljeta objavio 24 sata, a roman je prvi u serijalu od 4 nastavaka (plus jedna kra�a novela). Veselim se ostaloj trojici pastuha koje tek trebamo upoznati.



Cannon i Page znaju se �itav �ivot jer on je mla�i brat njezine najbolje prijateljice. Nisu se vidjeli dugi niz godina, a onda jednog dana Allie zamoli Page da ustupi Cannonu na dva mjeseca praznu sobu u svojem stanu.
Page tom idejom ba� nije odu�evljena, no kad napokon ugleda Cannona, shvati da zajedni�ki �ivot zaista nije dobra ideja - ali iz nekih posve druga�ijih razloga.
Naime, nekada neugledni �treber�i� Cannon, danas je prava pravcata seks bomba. I potpuno joj je zabranjen.

Njegova odluka je kloniti se neobaveznog seksa. Cannon stvarno nema sre�e sa �enama. Ispada da u ga�ama zaista ima �arobni �tapi� jer nakon samo jedne no�i s djevojkom, svaka od njih postala bi potpuno za�arana njime.
Upravo tako ostao je i bez mjesta za �ivot. Jedna od ludih djevojaka s kojom je proveo no� provalila mu je u stan i skoro ga stavnala sa zemljom.
Osim toga, trebao bi se koncentrirati na svoje �kolovanje i napokon izabrati smjer koji �eli specijalizirati. 

Cannon se useljava k Page i odmah mu postaje jasno da se jedan drugome itekako svi�aju. Ali njihova seksualna veza prouzrokovala bi vi�e problema nego �to si bilo koji od njih smije dozvoliti.
Ho�e li uspjeti odoljeti isku�enju?


Kad kupujete knjigu Kendall Ryan, u jedno mo�ete biti sigurni: s njome �ete se odli�no zabaviti. Njezin stil pisanja jednostavan je i �itljiv, zabavan i prepoznatljiv. 
Kendall voli odmah prije�i na stvar, pa tako u njezinim romanima nema okoli�anja ili prevelikih uvoda, a broj sporednih likova svodi na minimum.

U ovom romanu posebno mi je zapela za oko �injenica da je mu�ki lik �etiri godine mla�i od �enskoga, �to smatram zanimljivom i dobrodo�lom novo��u jer se s ne�im takvim ne susre�emo �esto, pogotovo uzev�i u obzir da �esto �itamo o �enskim likovima (�esto u ranim dvadesetima) �iji partneri budu i do desetak godina stariji.
Osim toga, Cannon je lik na kojem po�iva ve�ina zapleta, tj. onaj koji bi tom zabranjenom vezom vi�e izgubio. 


Cannon je tako�er vrlo zrela osoba. Unato� tome �to donio nekoliko lo�ih odluka u �ivotu �to se ti�e �ena (potuno nesvjesno, dakako ??), jasno mu je da se jednom mora uozbiljiti i nije mu te�ko donijeti ispravnu odluku kako bi time �to manje na�tetio svojem studiju i budu�nosti majke i sestre, o kojima je na neki na�in uvijek skrbio.

No svejedno ga krasi ona zavodljiva doza mladena�ke arogancije (koja je vjerojatno rezultat dobrih iskustava koje mu je priskrbilo oru�je te�ke kategorije koje skriva u boksericama) koja �e nas �itatelje zavesti u jednakoj mjeri u kojoj je zavela i Page.


Dva lika iz novog new adult serijala s kojim nam je 24 sata uveo u ovo ljeto zabavit �e nas vrckavim dijalozima, mladena�kom osobno��u i prirodnim razvojem doga�aja. Veza me�u likovima razvija se iz prijateljske u seksualnu, a pritom cijelo vrijeme osje�amo onu iskru nesigurnosti, treme i nervoze koju likovi poku�avaju sakriti kako ne bi izdali svoje istinske nje�ne osje�aje od straha pred osu�ivanjem onih koji su im najbli�i.

Ako ste mo�da �itali Bro Code, roman koji je na engleskom izdan u svibnju ove godine, primijeti �ete da ima jednu dodirnu to�ku s Cimerom, a to je zabranjena veza izme�u dva lika koji se oduvijek znaju, a jedna od glavnih prepreka njihovoj vezi je strah od bratskog osu�ivanja (pratim i analiziram Ryan budno poput sokola ??).

Ako ste ve� upoznati s romanima K.Ryan, uop�e ne sumnjam da �ete zavoljeti i ovaj roman, a ako jo� niste provjerili vrijedi li �itati njezine knjige, pozivam vas da po�nete s Cimerom. 
On �e u va�e dane uvesti zdravu dozu smijeha, opu�tenosti i dobre zabave. 
Onako kako to pravom cimeru i prili�i ??

Kendall Ryan, Kendall Ryan all around me. While the author's busy releasing new novels (almost) every few weeks (Love Machine is to be published July 16, and Bro Code was published in May), recently I have been going through some of her older stuff. 
Room Mate
was just published in Croatia, giving us just the perfect love story for these lazy summer evenings. The novel is the first one in Roommates book series, followed by The Play Mate, The House Mate, and The Soul Mate, all of which were published in 2017.


Cannon and Page know each other whole their lives because he's her best friend's younger brother. They haven't seen each other in years so when Allie asks Page to make Cannon her roommate for two months, Page's everything but excited about it.
But after she sees him, it becomes even more important for Cannon not to move in. A geek with braces is now all grown up, broad-shouldered and hot as hell. And totally forbidden.

He decided to stay away from girls and one night stands. Cannon's luck with women is everything but good. Apparently, his wand really is magical, because after one night with him, every girl falls deep under his spell. 
That's, actually, how he lost his place. One of his ex "girlfriends" broke into his apartment and he had to get away.
Besides, he should really focus on his studies and do right by his mother and sister.

But after moving in with Page, Cannon realizes them staying away from each other would be mission impossible. Any kind of sexual relationship between them would get both of them into real trouble. 
So will they be able to stay away?



If you're a Kendall Ryan fan, there's one thing you know it's true: her books will make you have a good time. Her writing style is simple, easy to read, funny and recognizable. 
She likes to go in medias res, avoids descriptions, long introductions and keeps the number of characters to the minimum.

In Room Mate, we have a girl falling for a 4 years younger guy - a refreshing change since we're often reading about girls (in their twenties) that end up with guys more than a decade older than them.
Cannon is also the one with a more complicated ARC since he's got more to lose.

But he's also very mature. Even though in the past he has made some lousy decisions regarding his "relationships" with women (absolutely unintentionally, of course ??), he gets the fact that he has to become more serious so he could make some important decisions about his life. He owes that to his mother and sister.

Still, we can very much see the young and arrogant side of his personality (having the di*k of his size does make you think higher of yourself ??) and that's exactly what will make us, like it made Page, fall hard for him.


Room Mate is a simple but interesting, fast paceing novel that will make you relax. The relationship between the characters happens naturally, starting as a friendship, involving into something more sexual and ending up as a true romance. It's also possible to feel carachters' anxiousness and fear of disappointing their ones loved ones, that makes their story even more realistic.

The Bro Code, the book that Ryan has published a few months ago is actually pretty similar to this one. In both cases, we're dealing with a forbidden romance between a person and their best friend's sibling. 

If you've never had the chance to read some of Ryan's novels, and you're looking for a new adult romance with a sweet happy ending, start with Room Mate

Hugh is a shadow of the warrior he was, but when he learns that the Iron Dogs, soldiers who would follow him anywhere, are being hunted down and murdered, he must make a choice: to fade away or to be the leader he was born to be. Hugh knows he must carve a new place for himself and his people, but they have no money, no shelter, and no food, and the necromancers are coming. Fast.

Tasked with their protection, she's trapped between the magical heavyweights about to collide and plunge the state of Kentucky into a war that humans have no power to stop. Desperate to shield her people and their simple way of life, she would accept help from the devil himself�and Hugh d�Ambray might qualify. 

Hugh needs a base, Elara needs soldiers. Both are infamous for betraying their allies, so how can they create a believable alliance to meet the challenge of their enemies? 

As the prophet says: �It is better to marry than to burn.� 

Hugh and Elara may do both.

This one will melt your heart...

All of this started about more than a year ago when, at the time, to me a completely unknown Anna B.Doe, asked me if I'd like to beta read her novel Lost&Found. I've said yes, because hell yes, I wanted to read it, and I wasn't crazy to refuse. The novel was supposed to be the first in New York Knights book series, featuring a football player and a wannabe author (as I've said, who would've said no to that?).
So here we are, more than a year later, gathering here for the third and the last time as a part of this series, and this time, it's
Forever.

Coming May 25, 2018.



They have found each other, but Will and Bel have yet to find their happily ever after.
Living on different continents, they live for the moment they get to see each other again. Those moments are sweet and emotional, but they are rare.
For more than a year they have waited to be together and now there are only a few moments left, few responsibilities for them to take care of. 
While Bel is trying to juggle between her studies and her new book,
Will makes plans, big plans that will change their lives.
He's done waiting and living on borrowed time. 
He's ready to play a game of his life.
And win his Forever.


This happened fast, people. I've started this year with a review of Until, the second novel in series, only to come back today, only five months later, with a review of the final novella, Forever.

If you've been following Will's and Bel's story from the start, you remember they have had their happy ending, but their story wasn't really over yet. They did find love and each other, but the distance between them kept them apart longer than they would have liked.

So they lived their lives on different parts of the globe, but that meant one of them would have to make the ultimate sacrifice, leave their old life, friends, and family behind and move thousands of miles away. For love.


The lost girl we've met in Lost&Found has grown up. The boy who had once let love escape him has grown to know never to make this mistake again.
For the last time, Bel and Will will have to say goodbye, only to be able to reunite, once and forever.

This sweet conclusion of their story gathers all of our favorite characters, like JD and Sienna, shows us what happened with people we became so fond of and made us cry one last time. 
We've got to see their forever. And it's beautiful.

There's that something that Anna does that not so many authors can do. She takes such a normal, everyday people and situations and turns them into something deep and emotional. Her novels lack big unrealistic scenes and instead of it, she's able to show emotions that all of us feel, happy or sad, every day.

I'm looking forward to Anna's new projects, ready and excited...

Ethan Sutcliff seems like a normal seventeen-year-old�at least that�s what he�s trying to portray. In a secret society run by the Supernaturals, Ethan is what witches call a Bender. Benders are Witches� Guardians, who are able to control a witches� ability, bend it, or move it away from harming humans. In Ethan�s case, he is able to bend the Earth element. But at the age of fifteen, he lost all connection to it, and the reasons behind it could only mean one of two things: His Wielder is either dead, or hiding out somewhere.

Alex Burgendorf has been living in her aunt�s locket for the past sixteen years with her mother�a Fire Wielder, and her father�a Water Wielder. For sixteen years, her parents vowed to protect her, and they have, as she is the last Earth wielding witch. However, time is running out. Alex must find her Bender, or the fate of the Supernaturals might be at stake.
