When We Collide
by: A.L. Jackson
Mini url for tour page: http://ow.ly/elbxg

REVIEW: I know when I begin reading a novel by A.L. Jackson, I prepare myself accordingly: a block of "me" time, a quiet place to read, and a box of tissues. I may have had some issues with her other book, Pulled (I still liked it), but I cannot deny this author can write and she does so--with tremendous heart. Her characters exude intense feelings, their emotions drip off the pages, gripping the reader and touching us in such powerful ways. When We Collide is about William and Maggie, and is told through their points-of-view. With dual pov's our reading experience is fuller, understanding both characters completely. I do find the jumps from present to memories a bit jarring at times, and yet, I do grow accustomed to it because I got wrapped up in the tremulous story of two people who need to be together. Powerful, gripping, and unforgettable, read When We Collide and let it touch you. Rating: 4
William has spent six years running from his past and the last eight months trying to rid his mind of the dreams that increasingly haunt his nights. Trapped in a world of false ambitions and feigned affections, William knows he’s reached a breaking point and something’s going to give.

 Maggie had lived her entire life without hope until one man showed her what it meant to be loved. He’d been her light in a lifetime of darkness. Six years ago, that darkness stole him away. Without him, she’s surrendered herself to an existence she doesn’t know how to escape.

 When the family William left behind is struck by tragedy, he is called back to the one place he’s sworn to never return to again.
In a moment that will change his life forever, William comes face to face with the girl who, with one look, captured his heart. He is unable to ignore the buried desires and the hope for the future they’d once believed they’d have.

 Now William is ready to fight to take back what had been stolen from him six years before.

 But he never imagined what that fight might cost him.
About A.L. Jackson
Author A.L. Jackson

A.L. Jackson first found a love for writing during her days as a young mother and college student.  She filled the journals she carried with short stories and poems used as an emotional outlet for the difficulties and joys she found in day-to-day life.                                                                                Years later, she shared a short story she’d been working on with her two closest friends and, with their encouragement, this story became her first full length novel. A.L. now spends her days writing in Southern Arizona where she lives with her husband and three beautiful children. Her favorite pastime is spending time with the ones she loves.
A.L. Jackson gives you an intimate look into the lives of family bound by an unseen connection in this romantic thriller with a supernatural twist.

The Devouring #2: Soulstice by Simon Holt

Reading level: Young Adult Hardcover: 272 pages Publisher: Little, Brown Books for Young Readers (September 1, 2009) Book summary: The terrifying, nail-biting, and grossly intriguing sequel to The Devouring.  It's been six months since Reggie first discovered and fought against the Vours, malicious and demonic beings that inhabit human bodies on the eve of the Winter Solstice.  The Vours still haunt Reggie, but only in her dreams-until one night, when an unexpected visitor turns her nightmares into reality. My Review: Soulstice was the first book I finished for the new year. Holt has created a gripping, realistic horroriffic fantasy with likable characters, a female heroine we can root for, and a truly evil protagonist. I realized this is the first YA horror series I've read and totally enjoyed. Reggie is back, wondering what the Vours are doing in the quiet time since the incident with Quinn and her rescue of brother Henry six months earlier. The peaceful break do
