Scrubs by Brooke Harris
Publication date: December 4th 2015
Genres: Contemporary, New Adult, Romance

I like fast cars, beautiful women and great sex.
I hate drugs. I can’t stand the idiots who take them and I loathe the bastards who supply them. Drugs cost me my whole world.
I wear many faces; right now I’m Doctor Lucas Callaghan and I’ll be him until I get my revenge.
My real name will be the last words to ever pass their lips.

I hate my name, Aoife Brennan, as soon as people hear it they treat me differently because of my father.
Medical school isn’t my dream, it’s his. But, it’s the least I owe him after everything I’ve done. I’m trying to be a good girl, but even good girls make mistakes.

He’s lying about who he is, she’s kidding herself about who she can be. They’re polar opposites with one very big secret in common.




Purchase: Amazon

Excerpt
"Thanks again. Good night," I say as I kick off my heels that are killing me, scoop them into my hand, and race across the grass toward the door. I shriek and drop my shoes. There's a tall, broad man standing on the same side of the door as me. I hadn't spotted him in the dark from across the lawn, and noticing him suddenly scares the shit out of me. Even now as I edge closer, he's hard to make out. His dark jeans and black, leather jacket are hiding him well.

"Flick on the porch light," I call to Becca, picking my shoes up once more.

My voice gains his attention, and he turns around to face me. Holy shit. He's sexier than his car. Becca, you lucky bitch.

"Is everything okay?" I ask stepping onto the porch beside him.

"I'm just making sure your friend got home safely."

Becca sways from side to side dragging the door with her. I push my palm against the timber to steady it, and as I suspected, as soon as Becca lets go of the handle, she falls over. I scurry to pick her up, but he reaches her first.

Becca laughs, but I don't see anything funny about the blood gushing down her forehead "What have you done to yourself now?" I scold, trying to see where the gash is.

The hot guy pulls some tissue out of the inside pocket of his jacket and presses it against the centre of her head. The colour fades from Becca's face, and I know she's going to faint. I take off my cardigan and fold it, but again, this guy is a step ahead of me and has Becca's feet elevated and resting on his jacket already. He really seems to know what he's doing.

    I love the cover and am so excited to read this book. I read all winter because I hate the cold outside.

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 d...
