F*ck Love by Tarryn Fisher

New Year’s Day Chapter 1 Exclusive

FL cover

Synopsis:

Helena Conway has fallen in love.
Unwillingly.
Unwittingly.
But not unprovoked. Kit Isley is everything she’s not—unstructured, untethered, and not even a little bit careful.
It could all be so beautiful…if he wasn’t dating her best friend. Helena must defy her heart, do the right thing, and think of others.
Until she doesn’t.

Chapter One

#wtf

“You are supposed to be with me.”
What words are these? They startle me, and at first I think I’ve heard him wrong. He’s leaning across the table while our significant others are twenty feet away, waiting in line for our food.
“You and me,” he says. “Not us and them.”
I blink at him before I realize he’s making a joke. I laugh and go back to looking at my magazine. Actually, it’s not really a magazine. It’s a math journal, because I’m super cool like that.
“Helena…” I don’t look up right away. I’m afraid to. If I look up and see that he’s not joking, everything will change.
“Helena.” He reaches out and touches my hand. I jump, pull back. My chair makes a horrid scraping sound, and Neil looks over. I pretend that I dropped something and reach under the table. Under the table are our shoes and legs. There is a blue crayon lying at my feet; I pick it up and resurface.
Neil is at the front of the line ordering our food, and my best friend’s boyfriend is waiting for my response, his eyes heavy with burden.
“Are you drunk?” I hiss. “What the fuck?”
“No,” he says. Though he doesn’t look so sure. For the first time, I notice the scruff on his face. The skin around his eyes is sallow. He’s going through something, maybe? Life is being bullshit.
“If this is a joke, you’re making me really uncomfortable,” I tell him. “Della is right there. What the hell is wrong with you?”
“I only have ten minutes, Helena.” His eyes move to the blue crayon, which is resting between our hands.
“Ten minutes for what? You’re sweating,” I say. “Did you take something, are you on the crack?” What type of drugs make you sweat like that? Crack? Heroine?
I want Neil and Della to come back. I want everything to go back to normal. I spin around to see where they are.
“Helena…”
“Stop saying my name like that.” My voice shakes. I make to stand up, but he grabs the crayon, then my hand.
“I don’t have much time. Let me show you.”
He’s sitting very still, but his eyes remind me of a cornered animal: frightened, panicked, bright. I’ve never seen that look on his face, but since Della’s only been dating him for a few months, it’s a moot point. I don’t really know this guy. He could be a druggie for all I know. He turns my hand over so it’s palm up, and I let him. I don’t know why, but I do.
He places the crayon in my palm and closes my fist around it.
“You have to say it out loud,” he says. “Show me, Kit.”
“Say it, Helena. Please. I’m afraid of what will happen if you don’t.”
Because he looks so afraid, I say it.
“Show me, Kit.” And then, “Should I know what this is?”
“No one should,” he says. And then everything goes black.

Marrow by Tarryn Fisher

Marrow

Book Details

In the Bone there is a house.

In the house there is a girl.

In the girl there is a darkness.

Margo is not like other girls. She lives in a derelict neighborhood called the Bone, in a cursed house, with her cursed mother, who hasn’t spoken to her in over two years. She lives her days feeling invisible. It’s not until she develops a friendship with her wheelchair-bound neighbor, Judah Grant, that things begin to change. When a neighborhood girl, seven-year-old Neveah Anthony, goes missing, Judah sets out to help Margo uncover what happened to her.

What Margo finds changes her, and with a new perspective on life, she’s determined to find evil and punish it–targeting rapists and child molesters, one by one.

But hunting evil is dangerous, and Margo risks losing everything, including her own soul.

Review

If you get anything out of this review, I hope you read it twice, share it (if you’d like) and if you read any of the below sentences more than once, please follow the steps at the bottom of this review. I will begin with asking if you have read any of Tarryn’s novels yet? If not, here’s what you need to know: Tarryn’s writing is in a field, no-scratch that…a universe of its own. But let me clarify…her writing is not an “it”, it’s her being, her soul, just HER! Tarryn is the most thorough author I’ve had the pleasure of reading. The detail she places into every sentence down to punctuation sends vibrations and the feels through my bones. Then she goes and makes me think and question not only the thoughts I’ve formed but also her words. And then I think and question some more and then I reflect before I find myself thinking and questioning again. Crazy, right? NO….passionate! So then I turn to my fellow PLNs and they get it, they know exactly what I’m feeling. And Tarryn, she’s watching, always, and she’s laughing (I can hear her) because she loves seeing how we crave her words and her mind that remind us why we love to read and why we read to love. Tarryn’s novels will school you that novels can have their own spin of an HEA that’s not all rainbows and unicorns and shit! Because life is real and she brings that to life. Bottom line…Tarryn has shown us how to love and grow from our flaws. Tarryn is our Marrow. She is in our bones and we will Never, NEVER release her!

So here’s my definition of the PLNs…Tarryn’s army. The 5 roles of a Passionate Little Nutcase is to: 1) go mad crazy over Our Queen’s releases. 2) Appreciate that Tarryn only releases one novel a year because she puts her everything into it. Everything. (Not to discredit those who release more than one book a year). 3) To dissect every word, statement and thought put to paper in her artistry (because you never know when something ties to one of her previous works or what the hidden meaning of something may be). 4) To join TF’s discussion groups to address #3. And they’re more support groups because we’re all going mad in there. And it’s a supportive, actual place with comforting hugs and shit (sometimes). 5) To spread her love and kindness to others. That being said #1…I have to do #3 in my head (before writing my review) because I’m crazy and talk to myself and other people’s thoughts will taint my own thoughts. If I don’t process in my own mind first, I forget my own beliefs and renditions of what’s real/not real because I think someone else’s crazy thought makes more sense than my own even crazier thought. That being said #2… Marrow/Margo/Tarryn brings to life the reality of what we all think, feel and want to do in reality. Which is bring justice for the children who the adults in their lives ruin for them. That’s all I’m saying about Marrow…because I’m not giving shit away…that’s not my style.

If you’re new to this nuthouse…here’s my advice: 1) start with Tarryn’s Love Me With Lies series (The Opportunist, Dirty Red, and Theif) as this series will introduce you to Tarryn’s mindset and writing. 2) Read Mud Vein and 3) Read Marrow. In between each of these steps join the respective discussion groups…trust me, you’ll need them. And Tarryn also co-authored Never, Never with Colleen Hoover which is another amazing book you’ll need to add to the above steps. Give this a try, you’ll find yourself craving more TF!! Rating: 5 “Baby…I’m crazy” stars

Review

I’m crying.
It’s painful.

My mind.
It’s thoughts are spinning.

My stomach.
It’s in knots.

I knew going in that TaCo/ToFu was going to light a fire up my ass that would blow out all of my logical thought processing. Therefore, I’m not surprised and bear with me through this review as it may read scattered. Never Never’s ending has me fearing what’s next…in a purely dark, exciting way. Tarryn’s writing always, without a doubt leaves me guessing, double checking, cross referencing and with NN I have no logical explanation for what’s going on with Charlie and Silas. But what they have/had is puzzling, painful, yet beautiful and comforting. I could feel Tarryn and Colleen in their perspective chapters through Charlie and Silas. Charlie had a darker feel, acted with such purpose, poised, OCD. Silas was her light, viewing the depth of all things, free spirited, finds joy in helping others. How Silas could read Charlie’s expressions tells me how deeply connected they area. Their actions on Bourbon Street had me picturing this dynamic duo’s recent shenanigans there…the angel wings, the tattoos. The banter between Charlie and Silas had me laughing and reflecting again on the similarities to Tarryn and Colleen. I can’t compare Charlie and Silas to another couple from a book I’ve read, or a series. They’re on a completely separate level. With what’s happened to them, what they’re living through…it’s connected their souls, their minds in a way that had me feeling they’re more in tune with one another than a couple that grew up as best friends and have dated no one but the other. There’s denial (Charlie), there’s fight (Silas), there’s hope (Charlie), there’s never, never enough time (both). I don’t knew how or when Charlie and Silas will find the answers they’re searching for. But what they just experienced, what I just read…I hope they Never Never forget. Because I know I won’t. “You have a unique style.”, Tarryn and Colleen. “Kind of like a thumbprint.” No matter what either of you produce, the impact your work leaves in my mind, in my heart…it’s different, special, and something I’ll Never Never be able to give justice with my words. Give this a try and find your next book crush!! Rating: 5 stars

Excerpt

The Shot
I missed a shot. People were looking at me like I’d gunned down a gym full of people instead of shooting an air ball. My mother was always teasing me, telling me that I didn’t take anything seriously. Maybe, she was right up until now. I was taking Olivia Kaspen seriously. All five feet two inches of her. She was mouthy and condescending and she never smiled, but I liked her. I wanted to give her something. So I missed the shot.
Is it true?
I looked up from my plate of pancakes. Desiree, one of the cheerleaders slid into the seat opposite me. She was wearing her makeup from the night before and my buddy, Kiel’s jersey. Why did girl’s do that? Eerised.
Is what true?
You missed the shot for a girl?
Where did you hear that? I pushed my plate away and took a sip of tea.
Everyone is talking about it. She smirked at me and ripped off a piece of my pancake, sliding it between her teeth.
I looked at her through narrowed eyes. I was having a hard time pulling off this charming act when my palms were sweating. Who are they saying I did it for? If people found out it was Olivia Iíd missed the shot for, things would get very uncomfortable for her.
Desiree sucked the syrup from her fingers. ìOh, there are rumors. Who knows if they’re true. You know how people can be.
I shrugged, trying to be nonchalant, but my shoulders were tensed.
Humor me, Des.
She pursed her lips and leaned forward. A pre law major. No one really knows who she is. Some people say they saw you talking to her before you missed the shot.
Maybe, my game was just off, I said, setting my mug down and standing up.
Desiree smiled up at me. Maybe. If you ask me, it’s kind of romantic.
Romantic? I repeated.
Yeah. She must be something.
I leaned down until both of my hands were flat on the table and Desiree and I were on eye level.
Does that really sound like something I would do, Des?
She looked at me for a long minute before shaking her head.
Well, there you have your answer.
I left wiping my palms on my pant legs. How many people had seen me speaking to Olivia? It was a stupid careless, but then I could have never anticipated her challenge. If things had gone my way, she would have agreed to a date for making the shot. Everyone would have walked away a winner aka. I would walked away the winner.
I couldn’t help but smile as I jogged down the stairs in front of the dining hall. Forget it. Girls rarely surprised me. I would have missed that shot five hundred times for a date with her.

Review

I had the opportunity to meet Tarryn Fisher in September of 2012 at the TFEiC event in Chicago. It was fantastic, amazing, and unforgettable for my 1st signing. I hadn’t yet read The Opportunist at that time and I’ve been beating myself up for that ever since. Why? Because I would’ve completely freaked out in her presence over what the Love Me With Lies series had done to me so far (and at that time, that was only after ONE book–The Opportunist). Tarryn’s writing is like NO OTHER, let me repeat for you, NO OTHER!! Every thing IS spelled out for you, BUT IT’S NOT. Let me explain, she gives you details, in-depth details but at the same time you still have questions causing your imagination to run wild, causing you to stir up your own theories, causing you to go crazy until the next book comes out to find your answers only to have more questions after reading the next while still questioning the happenings from the last book and also leading to more theories risen from the 2nd! Did you just need to read that sentence more than once….EXACTLY!!! So that brings us to Dirty Red (#2). In this book we have Leah Smith’s POV aka Dirty Red. Here’s my review for Dirty Red (back in Dec 2012–wow, my reviews have changed since then): “Leah, Leah, Leah…you evil, conniving bitch!!! Being inside your head was intriguing while also being a thorough mind-fuck, and I still want to shove your fingers down the garbage disposal similar to how you disposed of the frozen vegetables.
I read each page sooo slowly as I didn’t want to miss a lick of what was going on and while also having to force my eyeballs to not slide to the bottom of each page to find out what was said next.
Tarryn you’re a freaking genius and how you word your stories gets me every time!! Tension, rage, hope, fear, disgust, awestruck, giddiness, and sadness are just SOME of the emotions your work gets built up inside me.” So, it a nut shell, you can see what Tarryn’s writing did to me after The Opportunist and Dirty Red, thoroughly blowing my mind and had me crawling the walls for Thief (#3). Sweet Baby Jesus was the wait for Thief agonizing, crazy, theory-driven, worth it—-HELL YES!!! In TRUE TARRYN FASHION, we find the completion of the Love Me With Lies series wrapped up in Thief (Caleb’s POV). I prepared for Thief’s release by re-reading The Opportunist and Dirty Red. Did this help prepare me for what was about to take place, sure, BUT it only left me with more questions because we all know you catch new details, words, and mannerisms you didn’t catch the FIRST, SECOND, THIRD, OR EVEN FOURTH time of reading it. So with that said, Tarryn is a master, bad ass writer because it’s almost as though her books take me to a different place after each time reading them, do I still want the same end result, OF COURSE, but how I get there is different EVERY. TIME. And this makes her a master in my mind!! Will your questions be answered in Thief, yes, will you still have theories, yes–because no life is perfect & this brings me to another reason I L-O-V-E Tarryn’s words. It’s for real, real, raw, truth, the lies, the hurt–it’s all fucking real. Why? Because we all live it Every. Fucking. Day! Life stabs at you sometimes, you find yourself asking “why”, feeling “life isn’t fair”, BUT we learn to make of it what we have. I want to share with you ONE of my 10,000 favorite quotes from Thief–I mean that literally because I highlighted (in airport blue of course) more than half of the book! Here it is: “Again,” “And again, and again, and again…”
I picked this quote not only for the context that it’s given in but also for what these words signify throughout the course of Olivia & Caleb’s journey. And with that, this is a series I will read AGAIN, and AGAIN, and AGAIN!! I love you, Tarryn and I LOVE being one of your crazy, passionate, nutty PLNs!! Give it a try people, NOW!!
