ROAD TRIP: Breaking The Rules by Katie McGarry

Thanks for stopping by Jenuine Cupcakes! I'm excited to be a stop on the Breaking The Rules Road Trip Tour. 

A summer road trip changes everything in this unforgettable new tale from acclaimed author Katie McGarry.
For new high school graduate Echo Emerson, a summer road trip out west with her boyfriend means getting away and forgetting what makes her so . . . different. It means seeing cool sights while selling her art at galleries along the way. And most of all, it means almost three months alone with Noah Hutchins, the hot, smart, soul-battered guy who's never judged her. Echo and Noah share everything--except the one thing Echo's just not ready for.

But when the source of Echo's constant nightmares comes back into her life, she has to make some tough decisions about what she really wants--even as foster kid Noah's search for his last remaining relatives forces them both to confront some serious truths about life, love, and themselves.

Now, with one week left before college orientation, jobs and real life, Echo must decide if Noah's more than the bad-boy fling everyone warned her he'd be. And the last leg of an amazing road trip will turn . . . seriously epic.






EXCERPT 

In BREAKING THE RULES, Echo and Noah share a moment in a bus station and, because of their crazy attraction, they definitely cause a scene


Bus station



Echo looks at me with those pleading green eyes. I twine my fingers into her curls. The first taste of her lips is sweet. The second makes me forget thereā€™s a bus terminal full of people. The third causes me to lift her feet off the ground and deepen our kiss.

ā€œNoah,ā€ she whispers in reprimand as she breaks away. ā€œWeā€™re causing a scene.ā€

ā€œNot my problem.ā€ But I lower her to the ground anyhow. ā€œBesides, it wasnā€™t my fault. Youā€™re the one looking at me with take-me-to-bed eyes, and I felt you kissing me back. Once again, youā€™re the one getting us into trouble.ā€

Echo grins. ā€œYou are so impossible.ā€

ā€œDamn straight, baby.ā€





And donā€™t forget to read the first books in the Pushing the Limits Seriesā€¦

Welcome to Jenuine Cupcakes Thank you Cuddlebuggery for organizing this Best Series Blog Hop! *cupcakes for everyone* I have quite a few series that I love but the one I chose to spotlight is The Sweet Series by Wendy Higgins.  Why?

"Clockwork Prince" (The Infernal Devices Book 2) ~ Cassandra Clare

Let's take a moment to drool over, I mean, appreciate the pretty cover, shall we? *sighs* Once again, Cassandra Clare has managed to suck me into her colorful story of adventure, intrigue, love, romance and excruciating heartbreak.  *clutches chest*  Normally, I blast through books in a few hours, but I purposely took my time with this one because I wanted to savor every minute with Will, Jem and Tessa but HOLY CUPCAKE!!  Could you find another way to rip my heart out, do a "stomp the yard" dance on it and throw it back at me with demon pox all over it?!  *clutches chest*  How anyone with a heart can NOT be "Team Will" after this book, I'll never understand but if they aren't, then I say, in the words of giddy Will, "A demonpox on all your houses!" OK, so that's a tad harsh but still. "Clockwork Prince" picks up right where "Clockwork Angel" leaves off, with Tessa still trying to discover who she is and what Mortma...
