I'm very excited to be a part of the blog tour for Changing Everything from Molly McAdams! I loved everything about this book and I can't wait for y'all to read it. Check out the excerpt, playlist, my review and the great giveaway!
Eli Jenkins has the life: his dream job, countless beautiful women, and a best friend who's the one he counts on for everything else. One conversation, however, threatens to not only change everything between them, but possibly cause Eli to lose the only girl who has ever meant anything to him.
When a family tragedy forces Eli to take a hard look at his life, he realizes life without Paisley isn't a life at all. Only now, he may be too late.
“Pay!”
“Oh
no,” I breathed, and looked at Kristen to act like I hadn’t heard Eli. “If he
makes me play pool with him while he makes out with another girl again, I will lose it!”
“He’s
smiling, at least he didn’t see you moping—and he’s walking over here. With her.
Right now. He’s—”
“Pay,
we’re gonna head out, were you ready to leave?”
I
turned to look at them with a smile plastered on my face, but it was entirely
possible I looked like I was grimacing. “Well … ” I began, but the girl in
Eli’s arms held up her hand.
She
made a sickened face as her head jerked up to look at Eli, then back at me.
Long seconds passed as she looked me up and down with her lips parted in
disgust. “Um … ew! I’m, like, not
really into that whole threesome thing. So
gross. Yano?”
I
wanted to remind her that “you” and “know” were two separate words … but with
the way she looked, I was surprised she knew that Eli plus her plus me equaled
three and not the color burrito, so I kept that to myself.
Eli’s
face pinched together like he’d eaten something sour, and before he said
something that would inevitably crush me even more tonight, I tried to speak
his latest pick’s language.
“Ohmigod,
like, ew, right?”
Kristen’s
hand flew to her mouth as beer sprayed out, and Eli’s lack-of-amused expression
let me know that he knew what I was doing.
At
least I didn’t feel like I was going to throw up anymore.
“Threesomes
are so way gross,” I continued, not like I’d know. But the girl nodded her head
and pursed her lips.
“So,
like, is she gonna watch?” she asked, and it took everything in me not to shoot
Eli a look that said: Really? This is what you want?
I loved Changing Everything! Not only because it was a Forgiving Lies novella (which was just the start of my excitement for it), but Eli and Paisley were great. When we met Eli in Forgiving Lies, I just knew I wanted to know more about him and I was happy when Molly said she was writing his story. Even when I wanted to hit Eli, I still loved him. He's yummy, naughty and so in love with Paisley that he can't see it. I laughed, I cried, I felt. Changing Everything had everything I love about a book because it made me feel all the emotions. Seriously, I don't even know what else to say to describe how much I loved it. Molly's books just keep getting better with each one I read.
Changing Everything (Available March 3rd)
Trusting Liam: A Taking Chances & Forgiving Lies Novel (Available June 9th)
Molly McAdams grew up in California but now lives in the oh-so-amazing state of Texas with her husband and four-legged daughters. Her hobbies include hiking, snowboarding, traveling and long walks on the beach, which roughly translates to being a homebody with her hubby and dishing out movie quotes. When she's not at work, she can be found hiding out in her bedroom surrounded by her laptop, cell, Kindle and fighting over the TV remote. She has a weakness for crude-humored movies, fried pickles and loves curling up in a fluffy comforter during a thunderstorm.
