Kari and I wanted to do something a little different on this review blog. We're readers above all else and love discussing books. We've decided to create our own Book Club called Book Brunch.
At the beginning of every month, we'll select a book that we can all read and at the end of the month, we'll set up a Book Brunch on the blog to discuss! This is a great way to expand your literary horizons and find new authors to adore.
Since we're already halfway through January, the following book will be discussed at the end of February. So to kick off our first Book Brunch, we have:
Seven years ago, a knife-wielding stranger left socialite Ava Camden for dead on the sidewalk of an upscale Atlanta restaurant. She survived, but her face was brutally scarred. The police, the courts, and the powerful Camden family pinned the assault on only one suspect: Joel Sapphire, a twenty-year-old star athlete on the cusp of a pro football career. Too drunk to remember any details, Joel was found over Ava’s body, holding the bloody weapon.
Graham Sapphire grew up fighting on the city’s tough southside, and he’ll never let the Camdens crush his family. Now a wealthy hotelier, he’s determined to clear his brother’s name—and to find the monster responsible for Ava’s scars. Graham started writing to Ava the day his brother entered prison, asking her to give him a chance and offering his help. She never answered—but she never stopped reading.
Now Joel has been paroled, only to vanish before Graham can reach him. Is he lurking in the shadows or on the run from death threats? Ava is the lure that will bring him back, but she’s not alone in the fight. Graham will give his life—and even his brother’s—to protect her. The bond between them is hot, tender, and almost as dangerous as the hunter who waits in the shadows of the city’s darkest streets.
Kari and I hope you'll join us on February 28 to discuss this amazing novel. It promises to be quite an experience. Maybe we'll even get lucky and the author herself will drop by. You never know!

This promises to be an amazing book inspired by a favorite fairy tale, Beauty and the Beast only with a twist. In this book, the heroine is the Beast. She's rich, reclusive and has been scarred on her face due to being attacked years before.

The scars. She’ll never forgive her attacker.

The letters. His brother is her only hope for the truth.
The secrets. The truth may destroy them both.
