BLOG TOUR~FULL OF GRACE BY MISTY PROVENCHER
Running about 7 bananas strong on shots
from Hale and Oscar Maree’s wedding bar, what happened between Landon Grace and
Sher Traifere was supposed to be a one time thing. A quickie on a romantic night. Sher wanted a fast evening of fireworks to
remember on the dull horizon of her life; Landon wanted to get his mind off his
psycho ex by feeling Sher’s curves. By
the end of the evening, a secret of Sher’s complicates Landon’s attempt to
escape the girl’s chainsaw giggle.
Some one-night-stands just can’t be
finished in one night.
Even more complicating, this one rises back up with a hard shot
of morning sickness and an entire repertoire of questions. The most important being: how much pull does a guy really have in a
woman’s choice to pursue or terminate a pregnancy?
And in this case, how clever can he be
about stealing her pants?

Full of Grace is the companion book to
HALE MAREE, but readers do not have to read HALE first.
“I’m not ‘off the hook’,” I growl at her, “and you don’t have anywhere to go.”
“I’ll stay with Hale.”
“No you won’t. You can stay with me. I did this. I’ll get you through it.”
“How heroic.” She sneers. “But this problem isn’t staying with you. I don’t even know you.”
“Yeah you do. Remember me? The guy at the wedding?” I growl again, tugging her closer. We stand toe to toe and she meets my gaze with fire. “I was the one between your legs.”
“It’s hard to remember...oh wait…” She extends a thoughtful finger beneath my nose. “Minute Man, right?”
“Glad you remember me, Snow White.”
“You’re just a dick,” she says, yanking her hand free. “Then and now.”
“And it’s this dick that can make things really hard on you, if that’s the way you want it,” I say. “We’re not dumping our mess on the newlyweds. You’re staying with me for now.”
“I told you, I’m not. You could be some psychotic killer.”
“You could be so lucky,” I grumble. She plants her hands on her hips.
“Just because this happened, it doesn’t mean I’m open for business.”
“Business?” I crook my neck and squint at her. “Don’t strain yourself, Mother Mary. It’s not like you can get more pregnant. Besides, I’ll be sleeping on the couch.”
“I mean never. I’m never sleeping with you. Never ever, ever, ever again.”
“Deal,” I say, turning on my heel and heading toward the car. “Now let’s get back before they come looking for us.”

Lord have mercy, I love this book.
I have never read anything of Misty Provencher so I was not sure what to expect. After reading Full Of Grace I am now a Fan of hers and I bought all her other books which are listed below.
I have a real LOVE for books that reflects reality or deal with issues in society today.
that being said this book if fun, light-hearted,sweet, sexy oh Jesus I cant wait to get onto Landon. HOT and excellently written.
from the synopsis we know this book is ultimately about abortion and ones choice to decide life or death. so how can a book with such heavy subject matter be funny and light-hearted?
The answer to that question is the reason I awarded Full Of Grace 5 shiny stars.
from the get go I was intrigued Misty throws you right in the thick of things, so you are left with no other options than to sit your backside down and go and the journey to discover what happens when Landon and Sher's steamy one night stand results in an unplanned pregnancy. Landon wants to do the right thing and stand by her relationship or not however Sher is determine to get an Abortion.
The way in which Landon goes about trying to get her to have the baby is funny on the surface but his clueless sweet actions explores the deeper difficult choices people make every day and their reasoning.
by the end of the book we do a complete 180 seeing that the choice is no always cut clear nothing in life is just Black and White.
every individual situation are al different and requires a choice and decision that fits that particular scenario. one solution does not fit all we all have to find our own path that you are happy with.
every action had an equal and opposite reaction.
"Life inst fair. But neither is death and being subjected to either is cruel. Anyone who thinks that making choices is a thing-is a damn fool." I will take the quote away with me a hold it close because it could not be more true. and I am speaking from personal experience. enough with the heavy stuff.
Landon lets talk about him. I really enjoyed his character such a sweet beautiful caring loving man. ohh and funny his crazy antics to try get her to keep the baby was just hilarious. he was so clueless but it was sweet watching him trying to make it work the best he could and try to figure out his feelings at the same time.
Sher was a tricky one at first but then she starts hitting and fighting from then I was with her 100% a strong brave girl who knows how to handle and protect herself.
I like that it was written from his POV it was different but a very good different its time for the makes to tell their stories.

Hale Simmons dreams of climbing out of her impoverished life, going to college, and getting herself a titanium crash helmet, so she can eventually bust through the Plexiglas ceiling of her crappy life. But for now, she's just a 18-year-old girl with a flimsy hope, barely getting by with her alcoholic father, Jerry.
But for Hale, 'crappy' suddenly takes a nosedive, when Jerry becomes the sole witness to a horrible accident. It is an event which means to affect everyone, especially Hale, who wasn't even involved.
While the depth of the accident has just begun to unfold, Otto Maree, a prominent business man and old family friend, stands to lose everything because of it. Otto is desperate for Hale's father to stay quiet about what occurred the night the two men meet for a drink. Out of mutual moments of desperation, the two fathers forge a deal. Jerry is desperate to gain financial stability for both himself and Hale, and Otto Maree is more than willing to pay to keep his secret just that.
But deals like this need to be made of the strongest vows and bound with the most faithful of loyalties. Otto proposes a marriage between Hale and his playboy-son, Oscar, in order to assure that the secret remains 'in the family'. The mystery surrounding the accident continues to grow and Hale struggles against her own mysterious feelings that begin to develop for Oscar, who turns out to less of a playboy, but just as fiercely loyal and dedicated as his father.

Seventeen-year-old Nalena Maxwell, known as The
Waste at her school, has received a sign to join an ancient community. She'd
know that, if it wasn't the wrong dang sign. But Garrett Reese, one of the
school's most popular athletes and a boy with eyes as clean as Jesus, knows
exactly what Nalena is and he knows about all the family skeletons that are
about to come crashing into her life...

There’s a man-made storm coming, like a
rip in the world, and it’s called the Cusp.
Struggling to fit into the destiny she’s
accepted, Nalena Maxwell has been left with one objective: she must find her
murdered grandfather’s Memory. Stolen and hidden away by her own father over
seventeen years ago, the Memory could be the key to ending the Cusp and
destroying the Ianua’s rival community, The Fury.
Driven by each individual’s selfish
desires, The Fury has always lacked the loyalty and organization it needs to be
an actual force of power.
Until now.
Someone masterminded the Fury’s massive
attack on the Ianua, slaughtering twelve of their thirteen community leaders,
the Addos. Now there are rumors that the 13th Cura, to which Nali belongs, has
gone to the Fury, manipulating the last Addo in order to control the other 12
Curas.
As the
Cusp brings the Fury and their own communities against them, Nalena’s Cura must
preserve the Ianua, but finding the key to the Cusp isn’t as simple as it
seems.

A second ago, Nalena opened her eyes.
And she was safe in Garrett’s arms.
Then it all comes rushing back—the riots,
The Fury, the Cusp. The Ianua community is in a major jam.
Forced into survival mode, the Ianua are
holed up in the fortress of the Hotel Celare. Each Cura’s top-ranking members
have gathered to guard the last remaining Addo, as the entire community also
scrambles to trust one another and organize a new game plan to overthrow The
Fury.
The trick is to keep the human race alive.
But The Fury’s game has changed. They have
a Mastermind at the helm and he is out to destroy the Ianua.
Terrifying and brilliant, this mysterious
Mastermind has organized and focused The Fury like never before. He has
recruited the Simple and unleashed the Cusp’s wide-spread chaos all around the
world.
And behind the scenes of this big picture,
Nalena and everyone around her are busy trying to keep up, while also absorbing
the rapid-fire aftershocks of their changing lives. There are traitors
everywhere.
While The Cusp is expected to bring twists
and turns, Nalena and Garrett never expected it to throw a silverware-drawer
full of forks into the road. Each path tests their loyalty and their faith and
makes them question who is who.
Including themselves.
And each other.
And in
the end, some things, you can never see coming.
