BLOG TOUR: Striking by Lila Felix and Rachel Higginson




ABOUT THE BOOK:

BLURB:

Can two hearts be forged into one?

Cami Montgomery stole a car and smashed it into the front of a building in upscale Beverly Hills after a lousy date with the epitome of sleaze balls. The worst part, her parents are following through on threats after this latest plea for attention. Banished from her L.A. paradise and plunged into the Appalachian Mountains with her industrious aunt and uncle, Cami is about to find out how precious life really is. 

Stockton Wright has been thrust into a hard life. He sacrifices everything to give his family and community what they need. He’s exhausted from life and work—and he’s only twenty four. What he needs is some change, and some sunshine. Even he will agree to that. He just doesn’t expect to find it in a stuck up, pompous, entitled Californian. 

Cami bursts into Stockton’s life like wildfire, consuming all his thoughts and tangling him in her web. What starts out as a contentious rivalry evolves into a desire neither of them expected. When hammer meets metal, will they crack under pressure or be forged as one?

Cami and Stockton might just end up being exactly what the other one needs, but first their love will have to be drawn out in fire.







MY REVIEW:

WHAT?!?! My two fave authors wrote a book ... together!!!! It's like chocolate on top of chocolate....perfection!!

I read this book in one sitting. BECAUSE IT WAS SO GOOD!

Cami typical upscale chick. She gets into trouble and her parents keep telling they are going to send her away. Well, after she steals a car they did it ... they ship her off. Needless to say, Cami isn't in Beverly Hills anymore and it's a whole new world.

Enter Stockton (*sigh*). He is so much more than a southern boy!! His heart is pure gold and I loved him the moment he graced the pages.

Trust me when I say, this isn't love at first sight. Cami and Stockton are two hard headed characters and I LOVE IT!! They are so different but yet the same. I love the way Lila and Rachel write these two characters.

Cami is by far my favorite character. You might not like her because she is just a spoiled girl, but there is more to her that anyone could relate too.

I am just going to sit and wait until Lila and Rachel write together again ................... just waiting ............. still waiting .................................

ABOUT THE AUTHORS:



Lila Felix made the decision to write a book after being encouraged by friends. She is a stay at home mom to three wild children and three boisterous dogs and her high school sweetheart husband encourages her daily. Between writing books, she loves to read and watch sappy 80's movies. Favorite things: ice cream, anything purple, roller derby and any kind of music she can get her hands on. If you're looking for her, try looking in the swamp, she's probably duct taping something under the shade of a Cypress tree.






Rachel Higginson was born and raised in Nebraska, but spent her college years traveling the world. She fell in love with Eastern Europe, Paris, Indian Food and the beautiful beaches of Sri Lanka. But came back home to marry her high school sweetheart and now spends her days raising her big family. In those few spare moments she has, she is either reading or writing Young Adult Fiction.
