Blog Tour, Review & Giveaway - Written In The Scars by Adriana Locke


Welcome to my little stop on the Written In The Scars blog tour! This book is amazing! Scroll on down for details, playlist, excerpt, my review and an awesome giveaway! 




Falling in love is easy.

Falling out of love is the hardest thing in the world.

And Elin and Ty Whitt are terrible at it.

The first time the local basketball star smiled at Elin, she was a goner. It was just so damn easy to fall for the dark-haired hometown hero with his charming smile and strong, athletic build.

Thousands of sleepy smiles, aimless drives down country roads, and squeaks of the backdoor after a swing shift later, reality hits. And it hits hard. Falling in love was definitely the easy part. Watching it break apart was impossible.

Through the tears, the second-guesses, the memories of a life built together, the world keeps spinning. With each turn comes clarity and hope—sometimes in the form of a pair of muddy boots by the back door or from the words of a wise friend.

When Ty shows back up with a new found determination to put his family back together, Elin's torn between the fights of the past and the possibility of a new start. This is the man that holds her heart, the man she loves beyond anything else. But this is also the one person in the world that can cause her the most pain.

Life’s not always easy. Love’s not for the faint of heart. But with life comes lessons and Ty and Elin have the scars to prove it. But it's their love written in those scars that will hold them together … or break them apart.





Biting my lip, I watch him take a step towards me. Then another. Before I know it, his lips are at my ear. “Why in the world would I ever want another woman when I have you?”

I melt into him, both from his words and the relief of knowing he’s telling me the truth.  “Ty,” I breathe, walking until my back hits the cabinets. “I don’t want to tell you to stop …” Moaning as his kisses turn into soft bites against the skin at the base of my neck, my hands find his back and press him into me.

Grabbing the cabinet on either side of me, he touches his lips to mine. Working my lips over with his soft, smooth mouth, I nearly turn into a pile of mush on the floor.

My jaw slacks and he wastes no time taking full advantage. His tongue swipes the inside of my bottom lip before leisurely dragging over mine.

My hands thread together at the back of his neck. I press him towards me, wanting—needing—this connection.

He presses against me, and I feel his solidness against my belly. My core flames, an intense burst with no build-up, just a red-hot fire that flows into the apex of my thighs.

With no warning, he stills. His mouth pulls from mine, his body retracting.

“Ty?” I ask, panting. “What the hell?”

Shoving off the cabinet, he reaches behind me. I follow his hand as he draws an envelope in front of my face.

The corner of his lip is upturned, his brows shooting upwards as well. “Let’s take care of this first.”







You know when one of your favorite authors releases a book that you’re most likely going to love, but you also know that they’re going to break your heart? Yeah, Written In The Scars is just like that. Not only is it a second chance romance about Ty and Elin, who are meant to be together, but feel that they’ve reached the point where they can’t make it work anymore. It’s also a story of friendship forged in childhood, loyalty to those friends and love between a husband and wife, a group of friends, and family. Adriana Locke did a fantastic job of encompassing all of this in Written In The Scars as well as tossing in surprises and heart-stopping moments that keep you riveted until the very end. If you buy one book today, make it Written In The Scars. You will not be disappointed.
