Citrus Leahy is having a really bad day. First she's late to school. Then she runs into the girl who drives her nuts because she always calls her Orange instead of her name. To cap it all off, when Citrus finally makes it to class, she sees herself already inside. Wait. What? Citrus Leahy has a doppelganger! It's probably aliens taking over the world and her life has just turned totally upside down. Goodbye, normal. Hello, paranormal! Luckily, her crush Aedan has the exact same problem!


Now for the sneak peak and the giveaway!!!!
 
I walked the rest of the way to my classroom, totally forgetting to obsess over World History facts and instead wondering if I had any face wash in my gym locker to try and head off that pimple. I couldn't remember if I had taken it home or not. I crossed my fingers that the face wash would still be there, in my locker, when I had gym in a few hours. I tried to even out my breathing and dabbed the sweat off my face with the bottom of my shirt. I wasn’t going to give the other students anything to talk about by running in, out of breath, and sweaty. I was just going to walk in and hand Mr. Meadows the tardy slip, ask for the test, sit down, take it, and get a decent grade, and hopefully not a pimple. Then I could get back to reading my fun book and not worry about my grades for the rest of the day.
My mind was already planning how it was all going to turn out, as I caught a glimpse of the classroom through the window in the door. That’s when everything froze for me. The Receptionist in the Main Office had been correct in thinking that the attendance reports were strange because they were. How else could I be standing outside of my World History class waiting to go in and take my test and also be inside, already busy with the business of test taking? I swear. I'm not kidding. I was dressed in different clothes, but it was definitely me - same body type, a little longer than shoulder length dirty blonde hair and side swept bangs, oval face, and green eyes. Well, I'm guessing her eyes were green because the girl I was looking at was focused on her test and not looking directly at me. Still, it was me in there. I just knew it. 
The thing is - I didn’t have a twin. What I was seeing was totally impossible. I couldn’t be in two places at once. What in the world was happening? And, really, could my day get any worse?

Synopsis from Goodreads

Jacinda was supposed to bond with Cassian, the "prince" of their pride. But she resisted long before she fell in love with Will—a human and, worse, a hunter. When she ran away with Will, it ended in disaster, with Cassian's sister, Miram, captured. Weighed down by guilt, Jacinda knows she must rescue her to set things right. Yet to do so she will have to venture deep into the heart of enemy territory.

The only way Jacinda can reach Miram is by posing as a prisoner herself, though once she assumes that disguise, things quickly spiral out of her control. As she learns more about her captors, she realizes that even if Will and Cassian can carry out their part of the plan, there's no guarantee they'll all make it out alive. But what Jacinda never could have foreseen is that escaping would be only the beginning....

Loyalties are tested and sacrifices made in the explosive conclusion to Sophie Jordan's Firelight trilogy.

Little Red Riding Crop (The Original Sinners .6)

Title: Little Red Riding Crop (The Original Sinners .6)
Author:  
Published: March 2012
Synopsis from Goodreads

BDSM erotica writer Tiffany Reisz fractures the famous Little Red Riding Hood fairy tale in this sexy short story, a free prequel to THE SIREN (Mira Books, August 2012).

Mistress Nora needs a vacation. She might be the one flogging the clients, but Kingsley, her sexy French boss, is the real sadist who rarely gives her a day off. They strike a backseat deal: Nora gets one month off and a trip to Europe if she can sneak into a rival BDSM club and get the dirt on the owner. But she’ll need more than her little red riding crop when she comes face to face with Brad Wolfe, the one man who stands between her and freedom.


I'm not sure if I liked this or not.

Was it hot?
I guess.

 Was it memorable?
Well, that's the problem. It wasn't really memorable to me but from all the reviews that I read it looks like everyone loves it.

 Was it the BDSM that turned me off?
No, not really. I found that quite interesting and the fact that it wasn't graphic and brutal was a nice touch.  

What about the title? Is it Red Riding Hood?
In a way. Nora is a dominatrix who works for a dude who will give her a month off in Europe if she visits the club 'The Black Woods'. They are taking his workers away from him and he wants to know why. It's raining the day Nora is supposed to go over so her boss gives her a red cloak to wear to cover up her leather. Can't get that wet, now can you? While at the door to the club she runs into Brad.... or might I say... The Big Brad Wolfe. I thought that was clever. Nora asks to meet the Dame who is taking away her boss's employees but Brad says the only way she'll get the time is if she subs for him. Considering Nora is a Dom and has been a Sub she doesn't really wanna wanna but hey... how else is she going to see the Dame?

I found their time together to be the confusing part. I don't know if I liked it or not. Maybe I should read the next story. I did find the Red Riding Hood bits to be cute. All in all... a short erotic read.
