 Temptation, by any measure, is a fickle beast.
And when you are given the world on a silver platter, it's downright wicked. 

Blurb

If granted just one wish, what would you choose?
Money? Fame? Power? Love?

The world could be your oyster,
if you were willing to take the chance.

But choose wisely and prepare for the consequences.
Everything has its price.
Can you afford it?

Be careful what you wish for.
And remember, smiling faces tell lies…


****

Noah & Josh

The entire world witnessed their fight for love.
Obstacles were beaten and won.
They were living their best lives.

Wait?
Is that all? Is that the end?
Seriously, did you really think it would be that easy?
Oh, hell no.
Their story is just beginning.

When they are lured into the trappings of Hollywood's influence, they end up on the rollercoaster ride of their lives.

Strap on your seatbelt and get ready for a bumpy ride.
You will need to hold on tight.

Temptation, by any measure, is a fickle beast.
And when you are given the world on a silver platter, it's downright wicked.

Truth, lies, fame, fortune.

All bonds will be tested.

Will the binds that ground them finally break?

Just Like Heaven (The Young Americans, #1)Just Like Heaven by T.L. Bradford
Our rating: 4 of 5 stars

A slow-burn Hollywood romance.

In "Just Like Heaven" we're introduced to a dynamic cast of characters. The two main characters, Josh and Noah, are opposites in so many ways, which works so well at sparking their chemistry.

Intense and in some ways unhealthy, their budding relationship is as lovely as it is heartbreaking. Cue the start of a roller-coaster ride of emotions as they battle through their relationship journey as well as try to outrun challenges from their past.

The story captures the themes of the difficulties of coming out, as well as dealing with PTSD. The story is evocative and doesn't travel an easy path. The author successfully captures the struggle of abuse and personal identity, and does so by pushing the characters to the limit.

The overall plot and characters were strong and captured my attention. The pacing was a little slow at times, making it a little too easy to skim ahead. But despite some pacing concerns, I was emotionally invested in Josh and Noah's romantic and personal journeys, and will definitely check out the next book.

Disclosure: Includes M/F scenes.

Our rating: 4 of 5 stars

It was so wonderful getting a continuation of Josh and Noah's story. In this book, I emotionally hooked as we follow their journey from the devastating ramification of an event in books one.
Not only do we explore the highs and lows of their relationship, but we see their character growth and changes too.

True Faith was an emotionally complex and gripping novel. High angst, sweetly romantic, and so very easy to read, this book should definitely be on your 1-click list.

About the Author 

T.L. always hated math, so it was a good thing she had a way with words. Since she was a shy and quirky kid; words were her best friends. She would imagine entire worlds in her head and talk to herself endlessly. Her mother wondered if she was speaking with ghosts for a while. 

Her older sister was a voracious reader of trashy romance novels and would pass them down to her after she had finished them. T.L. was the only 10-year-old kid sitting in class reading "The Stud" by Jackie Collins during reading time. Oddly enough, she never got called out on it.

As she grew older, her tastes evolved, but one thing held fast; her undying attachment to love stories. One day out of the blue, she decided to write the love stories she always wanted to read instead of searching for her story. Since then, writing has been a dream fulfilled for her and she could not be happier.

She enjoys writing about love, regardless of gender and is a proud supporter of the LGBTQ community.

T.L. calls the Pacific Northwest her home and enjoys the quiet rural life of her little oceanside home with her playful/crazy husband and their giant dog Noah.
