Review :

It was hard at times to keep my comparison to twilight at bay. The problem is … the book itself is quite good and NO there are NO VAMPIRES in here… and I am not sure why but somehow from the start on I had this twilight feeling and it went on and on … every other chapter there was something reminding me of twilight …Sometimes bigger things – some were quite small. If i would list them now … I am sure many readers of Stephenie Meyer would agree with me. But if you have no problem with that or if you are maybe a fan of twilight ? I am sure you will enjoy this novel And don’t mistake my rant for anything other than a surprise. Because I LIKED the book even if it may have sounded different. The only real critique I had was at the point when german was used in the book – because THAT was actually a VERY VERY bad translation that even my cellphone dictionary could have done better (and yes I checked that) P. S. Thinking back carefully I think it was a line that triggert it – because it looked like a “copy/paste” from twilight

In an attempt to escape the pain of her past, Melanie finds herself trapped in a loveless marriage, while Daniel loses himself in a career that means nothing without Melanie by his side.

Pulled is a story of attraction and separation, of destiny and duty, of a love so strong it refuses to give up even when all others have.

Review : Short time ago i devided that i need to be more critical at what book to spend my time with And this is NOT one of them After reading the first chapters up about 25% of the book I simply couldn’t take it anymore Its a rare case to find myself skimming through the pages just to see if it gets better #Nope #sorry I like lovestorys – I do ! – But this? Somehow all emotions are by far too strong and exaggerated Daniels thoughts and emotions even sound like those of a female Which was the worsed part for me It made me sick honestly And that ending ❓ Please everybody likes a HEA but this one was dripping with corniness God sorry it was just too much of everything

Title : Don’t Make Me Beautiful

Author : Elle Casey

Series : N/A

Rating : 3 Stars

Blurb : A ROMANTIC SUSPENSE NOVEL. No one knew a woman lived there or that she even existed. A monster, living in darkness… At twenty-two, Nicole doesn’t even look human anymore. The beast made sure of that. So she hides. A monster, consigned to a life of fear and solitude. This is all she deserves, she is quite sure of that. And then one day out of the blue, the autographed baseball caught by Brian Jensen at the latest Marlins game enters her prison and manages to turn her world completely upside down. Temptation comes in the form of pity at first, and then perhaps something more. Does she dare to believe the things she’s told, that this is not the life she was meant to live? That being a monster is not her forever-fate? And will she be willing to risk everything, to reach out and accept the helping hands around her and share her deepest, darkest secrets? She knows only too well that hands can hurt. Finding out whether they can also heal is a risky proposition, especially when the beast is still out there. Looking for her. **This story was inspired by true events. If you liked the movie “Sleeping With the Enemy”, then you might like this story too. CONTENT WARNING: Violence, foul language, and adult situations. Not meant for younger readers .**

Review : It did not work out for me – not sure why … if it was the writing style, if I was in the wrong mood or the character develeopment was not ok. Whilst the heroine was emotionally almost to deep – the hero was only scratching on the surface of his possebilities. Surly the message of the book is strong and I liked that about it but something was always tempting me to read across the book and just skip pages to see where this is going. I am still not sure what was wrong with the story that made me want to skip pages but did not let me put the book aside …?!
