Happy Release Day to Shiloh Walker!

Today Shiloh Walker's long awaited Stolen releases!
YAY!
 
Shay Morgan has stayed hidden for a long time. Living a reclusive life in Earth’s End, Alaska, she’s as far away as she can get from the trauma of her childhood and the man who hurt her long ago. But terror takes over Shay’s life yet again when an unknown stalker steals away the fragile peace she’s built for herself—targeting not only her but the one man who’s ever managed to get past the walls she’s built around herself.





 
Elliot Winter has lived through being falsely accused before—it ruined his military career. Now it’s happening all over again. And this time, his accuser is a twisted impostor who’s targeting his ex-girlfriend, Shay. Despite a fierce mutual attraction, Shay and Elliot broke up because Shay couldn’t let her guard down, couldn’t let Elliot in. But now they both need to trust each other to confront a psycho who seems to know all their secrets.

 



I personally cannot wait to read this one!!!

New Review Ratings

 I decided to come up with some easy to read/understand ratings for my reviews.
The first rating a book will get is a "Key" rating.

1 through 5 "Keys"



Does this book have all the keys to being a great read/story that I am looking for?
Here are some of my ideas for the "keys" to a great book.

  •  To me the first & foremost thought I have about a book is it's overall storyline. Plain & simple, is it a good story? Did it entertain me?
  • Does the book/story flow well? Not skipping around and confusing adding a character where there wasn't one before, jumping from place to place (Unless it's paranormal & people can do this in that world) 
  •  Do the characters "mesh"? Some just seem too outrageous to have been put together.
  • Does the book have many grammar or punctuation mistakes? I do take ARC's into consideration, of course.
The next type of rating will be a "heat" index.
This one is easy...just how hot was the book.

1 through 5 Hearts


Now that I have a new blog design and a new blog button I would love it if you would include my new blog button on your blog. I will of course return the favor, just let me know in the comments below that you grabbed it & I will do the same for you.
Thank you
