I very rarely feel so much emotion while reading and this book blew me away! Epic, Stunning, Emotionally driven story!! A million stars!!
Love feels like triangles and sunrays. It feels like a good cry and the best chocolate ever. It’s a tightness in your chest and an extra beat in your heart. Love is completeness---sappiness. Hopelessness. It’s a feeling Love is an indescribable, cumbersome, silly-selfish, consuming, life-changing……
Love is in the little girl with the yellow popsicle."
Dusty is a love story that will truly tear your heart apart! It is consuming, devastating and I loved every heartfelt, happy, tragic moment of it!!!
The story begins with Dusty otherwise known as Edward Cullen, a young rule breaking tween/teen that lives dangerously. He holds no regard for authority and is walking a perilous line with smoking, partying, and drugs. As Dusty matures, the partying and the drugs get heavier and more addictive. We watch the slow decent of his relationships and his life because of his addictive tendencies.
Isabella Swan, Bliss for short, is the new girl in town. She is the epitome of perfection: sunshine, pink princess bubbles, cotton candy, and warm summer days. Bliss has always followed the rules. Being the daughter of the chief of police and a straight A student, she appears to be the all American girl. On the outside everything appears as perfect, but lies and deceit begin to taint her well constructed life. Lies and deceit all in the name of love.
“Love at first sight may not apply when you’re nine and eleven, but I feel like I’ve always known she was my purpose in the truest sense of the word. My be-all, end-all."
Bliss and Dusty have an instant connection from the beginning. As they mature into young adults, so does their passion and love for each other. But life has a way of getting complicated; especially when a love like Dusty and Bella’s may not be understood by others. Addiction also plays a prominent role in their story and becomes a character in itself.
This synopsis is just the tip of what you will experience. I cannot even put into words how truly amazing this story was. Very few books have impacted me the way Dusty has.
It’s been five days since I've read it and I still can’t move past this story. I feel as though I’m not the same person after reading it. I want to cry and scream for all their struggles and addictions. My head was in chaos during a good bit. But……for all the angst and sadness there were moments of pure bliss.
What is so great about this story is that you watch these characters grow from the innocence of youth to the gritty, raw dark side of young adulthood. You really get to know them and understand their actions, faults and feelings.
The character development is superb! Alice, Dusty’s sister and Bliss’ best friend, was fantastic. She was skateboard, tomboy cool with a touch of humor. Dusty and Alice’s parents, Carlisle and Esme Cullen, were also well described. As the reader, you truly understood some of the reasons why Dusty made the choices he did.
Here is my disclaimer. This incredibly, beautiful story is not for everyone. If you’re looking for a light romance with a predictable plot then Dusty is not for you. If you are looking for a one of a kind story that will leave you feeling full of every emotion imaginable then I highly recommend this stunning story.
Just in case you are wondering, this is Fanfiction based on Twilight. However, its as far away as you can get from the original Twilight story. The writing is superb!! I'm hoping the authors would consider publishing this.
This is by far the best book I’ve read all year. I’m not sure if I will ever come across another story like this. Dusty is truly Epic and has made it to my all time favorites list. I give this book 100 Stars!!!
I.Need.More!!!!! Looking forward to the Futuretake I’m hoping it’s soon!!

The Summer Garden is the final book in the epic Bronze Horseman Trilogy. This final installment was set to a different pace. In both the Bronze Horseman and Tatianna and Alexander, there was love, betrayal, tragedy and hope set against the backdrop of WWII. The action was intense as well as fast paced. In the Summer Garden, their story continues with life after the war and really delves into the characters and their day to day relationship. The author gives a very realistic portrayal of post war marriage and the obstacles one must overcome with their wartime past, inner demons, and outer conflicts. The Summer Garden would not be complete without its unexpected, suprising twits in the plot that definitely keep the reader thoroughly engaged. It was far from predictable. I felt blind sided several times throughout the book. The author's character development, as always, was amazing! After reading all three books in the course of three weeks, I felt as though I really knew Tatianna and Alexander and felt all the love, joy, pain, and suffering these characters went through. Their love story was epic and one of the most beautiful I have personally ever read.
"Shine on, shine on, my only star, my star of love eternally. You are my sole and chosen one. There will be no other one for me"
The Bronze Horseman is one of the most beautiful, epic love stories ever written. It is set among the backdrop of WWII Russia. The story examines both first love and intricate family relationships during times of incredible hardship. Simons' character and plot development is so detailed the reader feels the pain and suffering that takes place when the Nazi's seize Lennigrad as well as the joy, pain, and elation between the two central characters, Tatianna and Alexander. The author is so detailed in her discription, you can feel the undying love between Tatianna and Alexander. The story takes unexpected twists and turns and keeps the reader actively engaged throughout. The author had me hooked as soon as Alexander crossed the street to meet the blond, carefree Tatianna in her white dress with the red rose, eating her ice cream and singing. The Bronze Horseman will spoil you for other romance novels guaranteed! I still have not found anything remotely close to this beautiful tale. This book is in my top 5 all time favorites.
