Gallagher wants Delilah Moore-bad.

One smoldering kiss at a time.

Derek Carmichael has harbored a secret crush on his best friend’s older sister for years, but she’s always been out of his reach. Now that Hannah is back in their hometown and newly single, suddenly the five-year age gap doesn’t seem so huge. But convincing her to see him as more than just the kid she used to know is another story. Hannah Willmett can’t believe how grown-up Derek Carmichael has become.

Review: The Restaurant at the End of the Universe by Douglas Adams
Title:The Restaurant at the End of the UniverseAuthor: Douglas Adams
Publisher/Publication Date: Del Rey Books, April 30, 2002 (First published in 1980)
Genre: Science Fiction
Source/Format: Purchased, Paperback Omnibus Edition
Goodreads Amazon Barnes & Noble Book Depository
Synopsis from Goodreads...
Facing annihilation at the hands of the warlike Vogons is a curious time to have a craving for tea. It could only happen to the cosmically displaced Arthur Dent and his curious comrades in arms as they hurtle across space powered by pure improbability--and desperately in search of a place to eat. Among Arthur's motley shipmates are Ford Prefect, a longtime friend and expert contributor to the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy; Zaphod Beeblebrox, the three-armed, two-headed ex-president of the galaxy; Tricia McMillan, a fellow Earth refugee who's gone native (her name is Trillian now); and Marvin, the moody android who suffers nothing and no one very gladly. Their destination? The ultimate hot spot for an evening of apocalyptic entertainment and fine dining, where the food (literally) speaks for itself. Will they make it? The answer: hard to say. But bear in mind that the Hitchhiker's Guide deleted the term "Future Perfect" from its pages, since it was discovered not to be!
My Thoughts:
One thing I really like about the Hitchhiker’s books, are the titles. They’re fun, but that’s beside the point. The Restaurant at the End of the Universe is the second book of the misnamed series. Really, it’s not a trilogy. But, who cares? More books, right? Anyway, this book picks up shortly after the end of The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. Arthur Dent is still aboard the Heart of Gold, as he, Ford Prefect, Zaphod, Trillian, and Marvin search for a place to eat. But this is the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Universe series, and the most simplistic task always has the chance of going seriously wrong. And this time it involves an ill-timed request for a very ordinary cup of tea.
I enjoyed The Restaurant at the End of the Universe as much as I did the first book. It was a great story—serious at times, but also maintaining a sense of humor. The Universe in the novel is, of course, an outrageous place—and one of the many aspects that, so far, I’ve enjoyed about the books. The setting and the characters were fantastic. The different planets were very interesting, and it was nice to see how the characters reacted to the rapidly changing environments. Marvin was his usual self, and so was Ford Prefect and Trillian. Arthur was present, but a good portion of The Restaurant at the End of the Universe was dedicated to Zaphod.
I’m also glad that some of the unresolved mysteries from The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Universe were addressed in this book. It all tied together so that was great. But, once again, the ending left me with more questions. So, I will definitely read Life, the Universe and Everything.
One more favorite quote:
“The story so far: In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.”
Rating 5/5

Blog Tour, Excerpt & Giveaway: Through the Veil by Colleen Halverson
Where the fairy tale ends, destiny begins.
As Commander of Trinity's elite warriors, Finn O'Connell isn't used to having his authority challenged. He doesn't know whether to punish or protect the infuriating young woman in his custody. When he discovers the Dark Fae want to use Elizabeth's abilities to control the source of all power in the universe, he'll risk everything to help her.
At the mercy of Trinity and enslaved to the Dark Fae, Elizabeth finds herself alone on the wrong side of an Irish myth thousands of years in the making. Refusing to be a pawn in their game, Elizabeth has to fight her way back to the man she loves, but to do so, she must wage her own war against the magic that binds her.
Excerpt One
It
happened so fast, I barely had time to breathe. One moment I was standing in
front of Finn and the next moment his hands gripped my shoulders, his lips pressed
against mine. The blood rushed in my ears, and my heart pounded as he deepened
the kiss. Every nerve in my body fired with desire as he drew me closer. I sank
in to him for a brief second, letting the heat of his skin draw me in, but then
I remembered who he was, his oaths, his allegiances.
With a cry of protest, I wrenched myself free,
panting and heaving, trying to ignore the hot ache settling in my abdomen. God,
I wanted him. Stupid Elizabeth. Stupid.
He
stared at me in shock, his fingers on his lips, as if he wasn’t quite sure what
had just happened.
I
took that moment of confusion to swing my hand around and slap!
His head jerked back, and a palm print bloomed bright on his
cheek.
“What
the hell are you doing?”
He
took a deep breath and paced the room. “I-I’m sorry,” Finn stammered,
straightening his jacket and retreating to the door. “I don’t know what came
over me, I—”
“You
should really ask first, you know?” I bit my bottom lip. In spite of the
stinging sensation in my hand, a part of me felt drawn to Finn, a hot,
spellbinding gravity luring me to him. I took a step forward.
“I’m
sorry.” Finn fumbled with the doorknob. “I’ve made a horrible error in
judgment. Please forgive me.”
I
snorted. “You know, if kissing me is so terrible, why do you keep doing it?”
Finn
whirled around. “That’s not what I mean, Elizabeth. Your kiss is…perfect.
You’re beautiful, you’re…”
Beautiful?
I
took two steps forward, caging him in. “Then what is it?”
Finn’s
warm breath brushed my cheek. “I can’t…I can’t control myself around you,” he
said in a strained voice.
“Is
that what you want?” I raised my eyes to meet his dark gaze. “Control?” I
traced my fingers against the back of his neck, my hands seeking his scalp.
Finn’s body relaxed, his invisible armor crumbling beneath my touch. Heat
emanated from his body as I moved in closer.
“Elizabeth,”
he said. “We shouldn’t.” But his voice was soft, and his lips brushed my ear,
and I tangled my hands in his hair, silky strands running through my fingers.
