She turned away from him reluctantly. She wanted to keep staring at him. She wanted to memorize this moment. This night. No, it wasn't sweet lovemaking. But it was what she needed.

    Not sweet loving making but...what was it? I'm hanging on your words.

    Interesting snippet. I'm wondering where they are, what they're doing, and why it's "what she needed." Hmmm.
    Thank you for hosting The Friday 56 every week.

    Great excerpt! I got signed copies of this book and the prequel at BEA last week and met the author. Looking forward to starting them.

    I haven't read any of the Harlequin series books in a long time though I did just pick a couple up. This one sounds pretty intense plus I've read some really great reviews for other Maisey Yates books. Thanks for hosting!

    This sounds like a very intense read. Although I know the F56 is talking about something a bit more ... mature ( ;) ) I do agree that sometimes it's good to be a bit more intense with each other rather than just being all lovey-dovey. I want to be able to scream at someone without that meaning the end! Thanks for hosting :) I hope you have a great weekend!

AVAILABLE FEBRUARY 5TH!
RATED PG
86 minutes
AMAZON US

Illumination and Universal Pictures present The Grinch, based on Dr. Seuss' beloved classic. The Grinch tells the story of a cynical grump who goes on a mission to steal Christmas, only to have his heart changed by a young girl’s generous spirit. Funny, heartwarming and visually stunning, The Grinch is fun for the whole family!



REVIEW:
Such great animation!
There was always something going on in this movie. Even though it was a story I have seen played out a million times and a million different ways, they all are different too. This had more of a story. It was very magical and is definitely fun for the whole family.
Want to point out, Max, the dog, stole the show for me. He is so adorable, even if animation. Such a good dog.
This is one of those Christmas movies that you really can enjoy all year round. It has enough laughs, fun and morals to be played anytime. Plus there is nothing wrong with Christmas cheer in February.


4.5/5

REVIEW:
A superbly made movie!!
Seriously, the scenes were pretty phenomenal. It made for some pretty intense moments along the way. The space scenes were incredible. I loved how much real footage they used as well.
I thought I knew a lot about the moon landing of '69, though it was 8 years before my time. Even thought I knew a far amount about Neil Armstrong, but after watching this film, I realize I knew nothing at all. Had no idea he was up in the atmosphere so many times before the famous landing, but alas, he was. It really was a wonderful depiction of such an iconic event.
I also didn't know he had suffered such loss. It seemed …
