The protagonist should have known better. I should have, too.I gather Mafia/Mob Romance YA (in no particular order) novels are out of my comfort zone, particularly when there is a glamorized vision of the Italian Mafia. Of course this book deals with very serious themes, like slavery and many shades...
Haven´s life is that of a slave, she knows nothing else than catering to all the whims of her masters, trying to get by with her mother. When her mother tells her to run, though, everything changes. Her new life takes her far away, no more desert or living in the stables, instead she´s got a bed, an...
This is an overdue review, one of the leftovers of my ARC pile during my long hiatus. And I must admit that I only forced myself to read it due to the fact that I should still fulfill my responsibility as a reviewer no matter how late my submission is. I am very glad that I did because Sempre tu...
That's it! I've had enough!There's so much in here that rubs me the wrong way, I'm surprised I've gone this far as it is. DNF @70%I'll start with the worst, and move on upwardIt was waaaaaay too long and too slow!!! I mean, this is like reading someone's diary: all the meals they're having, bathroom...

FGMAMTC Blog ReviewI kept hearing from my reading friends how wonderful this book was so I finally decided to read it.It's sort of a YA book, but it deals with human slavery and Mafia issues. When I first started the story, I felt it was going to be about Haven's life or maybe Carmine and Haven's l...
This book is long and a m-fing journey. Overall, while it seemed to slow in pace and got a tad repetitive (quit punching things Carmine), I liked it. *looks like this is getting a movie deal too. I'll be on the look out.
Sempre is the first book in the Forever series by J.M. Darhower. Even though Sempre features two seventeen-year-olds, it is sexy with traces of a dark mystery. Haven is a second-generation slave and victim of human trafficking. It goes without saying that her life is full of abuse. Carmine was born ...
For me this was an exceptional book. I had a couple of issues, nothing major.My emotions ran the gamut. I was confused, pissed, elated, devastated and probably anything else you can think of.I don't know how true to life this world is that they are living in, but while I was reading this I was in it...
