MY REVIEW - COLE
We return were Inky left us with a Cliffhanger of all Cliffhangers ending, with this amazing sequel to the Leave Series through the eyes of the heartwarming Cole Carlyle. Julie certainly gave us one.
We continue with the unknown of Where is Inky? Poor Cole unknown as to what happened joins forces with his family and Inky's friends. This brought together an emotional family moment between Cole and his dad. Can family members move on after such a devastating past.
This sequel was full of it all. Full of a rollercoaster of emotions, family drama, laughter and best of all Hot sizzling sex. Always love a good wall banging scene! :)
With Cole being Inky's protector none the less, the love honestly showed just how much they are truly meant to be together. Through the leaps and bounds, there love is just too strong.
"When I wake up, it's to his kiss on my forehead. He tells me I'm beautiful everyday. He's always gentle with me. He knows my pain and I know his, and neither one of us is afraid to swim through the darkness of the other. The world could be falling down around us, but together we would be impenetrable. He is the other half of my heart, the other half of my soul.....without him, I'm incomplete." ~ Inky
The emotional support that Cole provide Inky thought her panic moments is beautiful. This brought out further truths about Cole's past. The artistic side of both of these characters, as I fan of Art, I this moment I loved.
My Darling Girl, All my dreams, all my love........all you. Cole
After such an emotional rollercoaster for Inky & Cole, they were were given their chance to more forward to the future together. The beautiful moment capture at the ending was beautiful.
This sequel still brought us the jam pack full of action throughout however it also gave us some closure that Inky and Cole deserved.
I look forward to the next installment to the Leaves Series with Nico.

MY REVIEW - INKY
This book was included in a few recommendations to read from another blogger. It had sat on my Kindle until only a couple of weeks ago to start this Blog Tour.
Now I was kind of glad I did as once I finished it..........WHAT A CLIFFHANGER! I'm a fan of cliffhangers only if its a goodie but also the sequel isn't too far away from release. Thankfully I had the pleasure of reading on to Cole straight after or I would have lost my mind. Literally!
More about Cole in the above Review.
Let me start off by saying what an amazingly well written, thought out novel from J.B. Harnett. As per my messages to J.B. via facebook, I was hooked from the start. Emotional heart wrenching mess!
This book pulled every emotion out of me left right and centre. Without going into details, the emotions throughout the book was speechless! Inky was a Brave Girl and I have got to Hand it to her for what she had been through.
As the Synopsis explains we are met with Inky and her fiancé Evan. As times goes by things happen through the book that make Inky pull up her Big girl panties and move on. Definitely Shouted out "You Go Girl" with her sweet act of revenge moment! Loved It!
From the first meeting when Inky & Cole met, the connection these two developed was amazing. Through both their troubled pasts, they both find the passion between one another. The feeling I got from this couple was indescribable! They are certainly one of my favorites couples of all time.
"Dont break my heart, Anika and I won't break yours" ~ Cole
"Deal" ~ Inky
With the love of Inky & Cole, I also fell in love with the additional characters through the book. From Abe from the Art Gallery to her best friends you could never imagine life without, Gus & Aimes. Through the good and the bad you know they would do anything for Inky. To the ever so called friend Lisa to the tattoo artist Nico!
Now the CLIFFHANGER of all Cliffhangers......WOW what an emotional ending. It left me sitting there screaming Noooooo. For the heartwarming emotion I have for Cole this......just cant explain!

ABOUT JULIE
Julie is a Southern California native, a fan of a really good story (preferably romance with a happily ever after), really good pie (preferably pumpkin) and copious amounts of coffee (preferably Folgers).
She has always enjoyed writing and at one time thought she could be a singer songwriter...the 'writer' part is the one that stuck.
Julie is obsessed with pi...the equation(and the food). She's allergic to cats and cantaloupe and hates mushrooms...so if you ever want to give her a gift, those are out for sure. She currently lives with her own romance hero husband and two boys in Melbourne, Australia.
