Swoon Thursday (#56): Let the Storm Break by Shannon Messenger

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 Let the Storm Break by Shannon Messenger!


I don't know if this is a dream or a delusion - but I know what I want to use it for. I pull his face down to mine and kiss him with every ounce of the love and longing that I've held on to all these weeks.

He tastes sweeter than I remember, and the heat between us is more intense. surging through me like a desert storm as I part his lips and kiss him deeper. His sparks burn on my tongue as I let parts of myself pass to him - sharing everything. Making him mine. 

- eARC, 47%

This was an okay sequel, but there were more swoons in this book than in book one! That was a plus :D

  1. I love a book filled with swoons. And that was quite a sweet one. Seems like she took control.

    Thanks for visiting my swoon.

  2. Love that last line "making him mine"! I was going to start this series a while back, but mixed reviews made me a bit worried. Lots of swoons is definitely a plus though!!

    1. It's a great line! And I'm not completely sold (I didn't absolutely love book two), but I definitely will be reading book three.

  4. Sounds like my series. Definitely more swoons in book 2. At least more juicy ones, in my opinion. And I seriously hope that isn't a dream or delusion. If it is, I want dreams like that! :D

  9. Ohhhh-kay, that certainly is swoon-worthy! I read mixed reviews on the first one and never read my ARC. I might have to go back to it, but the fact that this one was just 'okay', I'm not sure...

    1. I can't tell you if it's worth reading both books right now - maybe wait until the third book comes out? I liked the first book, and mostly enjoyed the second one, and I'll be reading the third one. But maybe holding off is a good idea!

  13. Lots of questions after that swoon. Guess that means this one goes on the TBR pile. Great pick.
