Review: Take Me Away By S. Moose

After breaking up with her long time boyfriend, Jackson DeLacey, eighteen-year-old Zara Borzilleri promises herself to focus on school and play the game she loves. Stepping foot onto the lacrosse field, in front of a cheering crowd, pushes aside the pain and reminds her of the future ahead at least until she graduates in four years.

Lacrosse star Treston 'The King' Parker dominates the field and to everyone else he has it all. Behind closed doors he's just Treston Parker- a monster full of secrets, deep, dark secrets only he knows. He won't allow anyone to get close and for the past two years he's kept his promises to her, but never his last promise: falling in love again.

One weekend he gives in and everything changes when he meets Zara. The rules change and she sees Treston for who he truly is, not what everyone else sees. But to Treston, meeting Zara means nothing, even though her blue eyes invades his mind.

We can be friends, but don't ask about my past or where I go. 

He draws the lines.
She erases his lines.

Can Zara help Treston escape his painful past before he sinks deeper into oblivion?

I am sitting here trying to write my review of Take Me Away and I am torn about what to write.  I liked Take Me Away overall but at times I was rolling my eyes at both Zara and Treston but sadly the majority of my eye rolling was because of Zara.  Treston is in no way shape or form an angel but the more you learn about him and his past you can kind of give him a little leeway in regards to him being a massive asshat at times.  Zara almost had this aura of I’m a better person than you and even if I may be wrong at times it is all on you no matter how wrong I may be.  Now don’t get me wrong at times she had every right to be a massive bitch to Treston but after a while her attitude and actions just got old.  Maybe I could see beneath the pain that Treston tried to hide but deep down he was a great guy who sadly lost someone he loved very much at a young age and it changed him.  Watching Treston not only move past his pain and become a better person made me love him more.

I wonder if this is a case of me just not connecting with the book because I have read other books by this author before and really enjoyed them.  I am also curious to see if she will be turning this into a series later on because I would be interested in some stories for the rest of the characters as well.

I've given away my heart once and only once. Now, I live my life the way I do. I don't have time to talk about my feelings and get emotional. That shit is for the birds. When you take out emotions you'll feel a lot better, trust me. Emotions mean feeling and feeling means opening yourself up to get hurt and when you’re hurt, all you can think about is why and what you could have done differently. You blame yourself and think of ways to get her back. When you can’t think of anything, you’re backed up into a corner and feel alone. No one can help you because the only person who can will never be able to. That hurt leaves you feeling broken and you go through hell trying to pick yourself back up. You stop your life, the only life you know, and live in the dark. You're vulnerable to words and actions. People around you walk on eggshells, scared to make you cry or piss you off. So I've taken away my feelings and will never hurt the way I did before. See my point?

Review: Interrupted Volume 1 By: S. Moose

There are only three things Cam Ellison wants in life: a loving husband, a baby and to find her first love, Ayden Park. But all that is taken away from her in a blink of an eye.

Picking up the pieces to her life, Cam buries herself in work and her new boss, a young, millionaire CEO, A. Sharp.

But he’s the man with two rules:
1. No repeats
2. No relationships

Cam pushes herself into Sharp's life, breaking down the walls he’s built. Soon they find themselves in a situation neither wants to walk away from. But when the door opens, everything changes.

First let me start off by saying that this is Volume 1 of a three part serial so, if you like to wait until all parts are released to read it, then that’s fine, but please don’t read it and rate it low because you didn’t listen to that warning.

Okay this is going to be short and sweet because it is a novella.  First of all since it is a serial we are forewarned that it will end with a cliffhanger and even with knowing that I may or may not have cursed loudly when it ended.  Now what I really thought was interesting and different than other books or serials I have read is that all the interactions between Cam and Sharp without them ever being face to face and that, to me at least, is what makes this unique. 

Be prepared to have your emotions go on a roller coaster ride and want to read the first volume in one sitting, it is only about a hundred pages or so.  I honestly can’t wait to see what the final volume will be like (I have volume two already read and my review for that will post later on).  Give this one a try, like I said it’s unique and will leave you wanting to know what happens next.
