Swoon Thursday (#160): Walk the Edge by Katie McGarry

Swoon Thursday is a hot meme hosted by the fabulous ladies at YA Bound!


- From the book you’re currently reading, or one you just finished, tell us what made you SWOON. What got your heart pounding, your skin tingling, and your stomach fluttering

- Try to make the swoon excerpt 140 characters (or less), if you are going to tweet about it. Use the hashtag #YABOUND when tweeting


This week, my swoon is from Walk the Edge by Katie McGarry!


I lift my head and draw his lower lip into mine. Within a heartbeat, Razor deepens the kiss, taking possession of my mouth. I lay back and begin to function on pure instinct. My hands seek the strong muscles of his back and shoulders and Razor's hands also deliciously roam.

His fingers discover the curve of my waist and they meticulously inch up my shirt. I'm in the middle of an inferno and I'm clinging to the flames. He shifts and parts of his body fit perfectly into me. I turn my head and hasp with the jolt of sweet electricity.

Razor continues the kisses. Along my cheek, down my neck, and I'm completely lost in the sensation. All of the sensations. The way his lips press on my skin.

I adored this book so much! Nowhere But Here wasn't all that great for me, but this book was much better and so, so swoony. I highly recommend it, YA contemporary fan or not!

  1. I think my biggest take away from Nowhere but here was Eli. He is the reason I kept reading. One of my most anticipated books of this year, because Razor sounds like my kind of guy.

    1. Take Me On was definitely not her best, I agree. I didn't *love* that one or Nowhere But Here or Crash Into You.

    1. I didn't like it too much, but like you, I wanted to continue with the series. Most of the issues I had with book one stayed with book one. :)
