Happy Thirsty Thursday everyone! This is my big day for my very first review on my blog and I am excited to say I am very pleased to review ConneXions by the talented Isabella LaPearl. This short story is only part 1 and wow, what a great first part it is!

Bound by hunger and torn by circumstance, she is catapulted into the pitch black until the hands of fate intervene.
Unyielding and determined, the deep touch of a mysterious stranger uncovers a soul shattering "connexion" that knows no bounds.
An intimate battle of destiny ensues, threatening to consume all that they have ever known.

I have to say for a short story, this had me completely intrigued. This was a easy 4 stars for me, because I felt like I WAS the character. The author made sure to write in a way where you felt, smelled, walked, everything yourself. It was great! It had just enough information in it to where it wasn't overpowering but kept me from going crazy getting more questions then answers. The character is very  memorable even though there isn't a name, (I think it adds to the mystery) the love scenes steamy enough to curl my own toes, and it had just a touch of humor too. I am looking forward to reading the other parts to this story and other books by this extremely talented author.
Thank you for stopping by and checking out my first review. Feel free to comment and let me know what you think of this great book. I want to also thank the great Isabella LaPearl for letting me do my first review on such a fantastic story.

  3. Oh Marie I also loved ConneXions! This was actually the first book of Isabella LaPearl's I read. You are so right you can easily put your self in the place of the character. Isabella's writting also brings back to memory wonderful moments of your own life.

    Needless to say I now have all of her books. I just wish she wrote faster! LOL
