Vivianna Sky is an addict, but not in the way you think. She must fight her addiction and demons to save herself and her Mama. Unsure of whether she will be able to she gets a helping hand from an unlikely source!
When I first started reading the story I found myself annoyed with Vivianna with her being an addict then I found out what she was an addict too.
A story that is quite full of action battling demons both physically and mentally but a rewarding fight.
There are a couple of sex scenes but they aren't crudely written quite gentle in all honesty.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book and can see me really getting stuck into the series.
A definite recommendation from me for you to read

I’m developing a serious TJ Klune addiction, and I’m ok with that.
This Bennett pack, though! They’re not just putting themselves through the emotional wringer - what about me?!
I loved reading Gordo’s story - his trauma, sadness, abandonment issues - and how he’s found again.
All of these books have been a joy so far (and I’ve already read the next in the series). What I particularly like, is how I’m drawn in to this book, and how I become so invested in their lives. Look, I know it’s a story about a werewolf pack, but at no point does it seem to be “just” a werewolf book. There are so many parallels that can be drawn to real people’s lives (especially that of found family). And that’s why I love them.
And werewolves. Of course.

Bong Mines Entertainment (15 KP) rated Andreas Moss by Andreas Moss in Music
Jun 7, 2019
Andreas Moss is a Swedish-born, Nashville-bred, and Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter. Not too long ago, he released his self-titled 7-track debut EP featuring Yachtmoney and Melanie Pfirrman.
Moss (Jonathan Thulin) has amassed Dove Awards, number-one records, and headlined tours as a Christian recording artist before making the transition to pop music in recent years. After struggling with the acceptance of his sexuality within the church, the sexually fluid singer decided to go his own way. And now, he’s unveiling what he has discovered on his debut project.
“STUCK IN MY FEELINGS”
The Matthew Underwood-directed video shows a couple making love. Also, the following scenes aren’t too cozy, as their communication dwindles.
“KODAK”
Moss sings about a relationship issue. He’s over his head in a relationship with a woman he loves. His adoration for her is tearing him up and he knows it. Also, he references the relationship being kodak or looking picture perfect on the outside. But internally, he’s dead like a corpse.
“KOKAIN”
Moss sings about being addicted to cocaine. Also, he highlights the pain of a woman he hurt while being an addict. She’s had it up to here with his inability to rid himself of an addiction that’s detrimental to their long-term relationship.
“DEAR MISERY”
Moss bares his soul and unveils his departure from being an addict and living in misery. He sings about this touching breakup on a remarkable ballad perfumed with hopefulness.
CONCLUSION
Andrea Moss’s self-titled debut project takes listeners on a relatable journey through love, addiction, and redemption. There’s a myriad of emotions felt
throughout the voyage, but the outcome is attractively wonderful.

No Escaping The High Ratings
I've never been so into a show as this one. My binge-watching addiction commenced with this series. Truly addicting and irresistible. If I had to choose between all the shows I've watched, this is one of the BEST! Innovative and creative. It contains clever inventions of escape that never fail to amaze. I'm not a nail-biter, but this is the show that can cause one to start. It keeps you on the edge of your seat. I didn't watch this show as it aired, I watched it on NETFLIX, I cannot imagine the viewers who actually had to wait years for the upcoming seasons because each episode has cliffhangers that leave you itching for more. It contains a great story line. Sharp plotting. It's excellent, suspenseful, and intriguing. Overall, an unpredictable thrill ride.

It will surprise you... then become an addiction!
I was originally unsure if I wanted to see this movie. A friend who has similar tastes saw it in theaters and told me I would regret not seeing it in the theater, so I went. From the first beat of music, I was hooked. I did not want the movie to end. The acting is phenomenal, music gave me chills, and I could not take my eyes off of it. I immediately bought the soundtrack, and saw it a second time in theaters. I also made sure to preorder the movie. Since then, I have show it to my students, and let teachers borrow it to show to their students. Every time, people or students who were not interested became hooked. This is a must see!

That one person everyone avoids
In This dark comedy about an unstable cable installer with a unhealthy addiction to stalking customers is one movie everyone can relate to wether it be a Fan, an Ex, jealous friend or secret admirer, this movie puts a great twist on a strangers friendship.

When Steven denies Chip his frequent need for companionship, Chip goes from oddball acquaintance to a obsessed psycho stalker. Though it's crystal clear to Steven, that cable guy chip is dangerous, it's convincing everyone close to him before its too late, that isn't going to be easy.
A perfectly dark tone quickly gets you glued in and works great for the movies characters and enhances the edginess for the plot.

Great Read
Whether you are a young adult, or just young at heart, you are bound to love "Marella." I'm still not sure what I enjoyed most about this novel. In the beginning, I was impressed with the author's detailed and flavorful world building as she draws us into a world of wonder with delightful characters who care about each other and the world they live in. It's a world full of animals who bond with people and the hint of magic bound in realism. I soon found myself as protective of the main character as her family while I watched her begin her journey into adulthood. An explanatory and intriguing ending are sending me off to the next book in this series with the sincere hope that Morgan Sheppard will be writing many more in this series because I just found my new book addiction.
This book was given to me by a friend, a substitue teacher at the school I teach at. He is working on his teaching degree & came across this book in the course of his studies. He was so impressed with it that he purchased several copies & gave them to teachers at the school.
I enjoyed this book a great deal. It was easy to read for being a book on brain science. It was written in a very non-high brow way. The book explained the theory of brain plasticity & how the "changeability" of the brain impacts our lives. There were sections on relationships, addiction, learning, strokes, & the part I found the most interesting the development of the Fast ForWord program which we use at the school.
If you are curious about the brain & how it is able to change & heal or harm itself this is a must read!

A fascinating insight
This novel is written to show us the reader that Native Americans don't all follow the stereotype that we have grown up with. Certainly, there are Native Americans on reservations, but they also live in cities and have lives that are more familiar to non-Native Americans.
This book is set in Oakland in the lead up to a pow wow. It's told from multiple points of view, tells of different lives, and the modern struggles of Indians living in cities (poverty, drug and alcohol addiction and finding their identity).
This book was so well written - it was very in depth, but was easy to read, meaning that I read it far too quickly. I really enjoyed the windows in to these peoples lives. The dramatic finale of the book had my heart in my mouth throughout.
Well worthy of all the praise it's had, in my opinion.

Not a day goes by that I don't use my Amazon Kindle.
I love Amazon Kindle. As a real bibliophile I didn't think I could ever break my addiction to the printed world. But it did. I love how easy the world of books is to access and how many genres ate available. I have a condition called fibromyalgia which makes my joints weak and painful. This made it difficult to read books in bed which is my favourite thing. Thankfully with Amazon Kindle it is light enough to use and read with one hand, so very easy for me to use on my pad. Plus with Amazon Kindle on my phone, I am never without my latest or favourite books. I read do.much I joined kindle unlimited to save myself some money. £7.99 A month, bargain.
