Ex-Factor
Diamond Girls #1
Author: Elisa Dane
Reading Level: Young Adult
Genre: Contemporary
Released: April 14th 2014


Nevaeh Evan’s life is uprooted after her father’s death, when she moves in with her aunt and cousin, Livvie. Her plan to lay low at her new high school isn’t working. Her friend’s jerky boyfriend keeps asking her out, the guy she likes treats her like garbage, and the thought of tumbling again makes her want to hurl.

So when her aunt pushes her into joining the elite X-FACTOR cheer leading squad, Navaeh goes along with it.

But Nev feels she doesn’t deserve to be happy. Not after what happened the night her father died.

Bodie Scott knows about grief all too well. Critically injured in an alcohol related accident the year before, Bodie struggles with the fact that he’ll never play football again, and he’s so far behind in credits he can’t see straight. That is, until he meets Nev. Haunted by their bloody pasts and wary of a shared future, Nev and Bodie turn to one another for comfort and support, and realize they’re not so alone after all. And when the party scene at school threatens the life of a loved one, the two stop at nothing to keep the past from repeating itself.

Elisa's Top 5 T.V. Celebrity Crushes

If you follow me on Facebook, or have watched any of my YouTube vlogs, then you'll know I'm a huge television junkie. My busy schedule doesn't allow for a ton of television viewing, but the few shows I do watch (thanks to my trusty DVR) are filled with muscled-up, swoon-worthy hotties that are extremely easy on the eyes. Yes, yes, I fully admit I've got a cougar crush on a handful of handsome twenty-somethings. Don't pretend you don't have your own celebrity crush either. I'm onto y'all. Just sayin'!

I could go on with a bunch of blabber about what great actors these guys are (because they are), but that's not really what any of us want, right? We want to see the shmexy hunks that have my panties twisted into a knot on a weekly basis, correct? Uh-huh… I thought so. I'm a giver by nature, so here you go, my friends. Enjoy!

Hottie #5 is none other than Ian Somerhalder. I first laid eyes on this shmexy hunk when he played Boone on Lost. I thought he was hunky then, and mourned his character's death for weeks. I have to say, though, his portrayal of Damon Salvatore on Vampire Diaries is nothing short of brilliant, and it because of him that I watch the show every week. Those eyes of his. Good Lord! They're mesmerizing!


Hottie #4 is the very beastly hunk from the CW's Beauty and the Beast: Jay Ryan. I've never wanted to be savaged by an out-of-control beast more than when I watch B&TB. The chemistry between Jay's character Vincent and the female lead is off the chain, and his deep, raspy voice does something to my insides every time I hear it. Swoon!


Hottie #3 is from a show I recently started watching, but have quickly become obsessed with: Teen Wolf. Tyler Hoechlin, IMHO has one of the prettiest faces I've ever seen. And that jawline! You could cut yourself on it! His character, Derek, is dark, and broken, and brooding… Just how I like my fictional men. Yeah, baby!!! Oh… Did I mention he'd make the perfect Reid?


Hottie #2 is the very handsome Colton Haynes. I fell in love with his gorgeousness when his character, Roy was introduced on my favorite television show, Arrow. He's pretty, muscular, athletic, and his character has a big chip on his shoulder, which makes him even more yummy in my eyes. I'd no idea until I started binge watching Teen Wolf, that he'd played a major character on that show as well. Gotta say, though, I enjoy him as Roy, much more than I did as poor Jackson. Lizard Boy broke my heart!

Hottie #1 is probably very obvious to anyone who knows me, or has followed me online for any length of time. I make no effort to hide the fact I've got a HUGE crush on Stephen Amell. Arrow is my favorite television show, and Stephen's character, Oliver possesses all the qualities that make me swoon. He's dark, broken, brooding, handsome, torn, alpha… The list could go on, and on, an on. Stephen's a great actor, and from what I can tell, an all around great human being. If you're not watching his show, you need to remedy that. ASAP! Olicity forever!!





Unbreakable
Diamond Girls #2
Author: Elisa Dane
Reading Level: Young Adult
Genre: Contemporary
Released: June 10th 2014


Perception is everything to sixteen-year-old Olivia Brown. With her freakishly hot boyfriend, volunteer work at the local animal shelter, successful beauty channel on YouTube, and well-earned spot on X Factor Cheer's elite level five Diamond Girl team, Livvie's the girl every other girl wants to be. At least, that's the illusion she's aiming for.

But Livvie's seemingly perfect life is anything but. Lying about the bruises her boyfriend gives her, and cowering beneath his raging temper becomes a regular way of life until she unwittingly witnesses her drunken neighbor beating his step-son, the town bad boy, Reid Tate.

For Reid, vulnerability is the enemy. Opening up, and letting people in gives them the power to disappoint. Growing up with a co-dependent mother and an abusive alcoholic father, Reid has endured all the disappointment he can stomach.

But when his pretty, do-good neighbor witnesses his step-dad beat him to within an inch of his life, and not only call the cops, but keeps quiet at school about what she saw, Reid wonders if maybe, just maybe, he's found someone he can finally trust.


I'm a lover of books (YA & Adult romance), chocolate, reality television, and am a proud mother to three All Star cheerleaders. Woot!

I write Contemporary YA romance with cheerleaders. Yep. I write what I know, and it's my hope that my stories will not only take you on a romantic journey that will warm your heart, but that you'll find a new respect and interest in the sport of Cheerleading you may not have had before.
