About the Book
Title: The Quarter Change
Author: Kiarra M. Taylor
Genre: Contemporary Romance
The-Quar-ter-
Change:
/T͟Hē, ˈkwôrdər, CHānj/
Noun
A drastic personality change brought on by a
person’s upcoming twenty-fifth birthday and the realization that they have been
EXISTING for a quarter of a century but not LIVING.
Kimbella
Tyler is done floating through life…
She’s turning twenty-five in
a few weeks, and even though she’s in the prime of her life, living by the
motto “Keep head down or in a book” hasn’t exactly been fun. Sick of hanging in
the background of life, Kimbella embarks on a mission to leave her introverted
ways in the past and live by a new motto—“Liquor. Lust. Living.”. The first
step in her mission is to change her surroundings. Armed with her “Quarter
List” full of fun local attractions and wild, adventurous things that she was
always too introverted to do, Kimbella heads to California for two weeks of no
holds barred fun.
An
unlisted attraction…
Kimbella’s carefully laid
plans are interrupted when she meets the crazy sexy Dr. Roman Tanzman and he
attaches himself to her at the hip. Rolling with the punches for once in her
life, Kimbella takes Roman along as she goes on the adventure of a
lifetime—well the adventure of a quarter of a lifetime.
Liquor. Lust. Living Love…?
Kimbella's new life is one
she’s always dreamed about; filled with hot nights with Roman, endless fancy
dinners and dancing and no shortage of liquor. But with Kimbella pretending to
be a bold, outgoing and sexually forward woman, and Roman pretending to be a
carefree guy who isn’t going through the most trying time of his life, their
facades have the potential to be their very undoing. Liquor and lust were part
of the plan—love certainly wasn’t.

Book Excerpts
I held out a hand to stop him from invading my
personal space and throwing me all off balance.
“You’re not sorry. In fact, I don’t even think you
care about me beyond being able to have sex with me whenever you want to!” I
accused.
He drew back in shock. “That’s absolutely not fucking
true! I was the one who wanted to
wait a while before jumping into bed with you. How could you even say that? I
care, KB…I care too fucking much,” he said angrily.
I shook my head as tears pooled in my eyes. “Then why
haven’t you said one single thing about…about us?” I asked in a vulnerable
voice.
His brows rose. “‘Us’? KB, you made it clear from the
first day I met you that you didn’t want there to even be an ‘us’. You just
wanted to ‘get fucked’, as you so eloquently put it. And I think I’ve more than
fulfilled my obligation in that area.”
My eyes widened. “You know what, Doctor? Fuck. You,” I spat angrily.
I turned, all too ready to leave, but I caught sight
of him going back to eating his breakfast like our blow-up had never even
happened. My anger surged higher than I could control and I strode back over to
the breakfast bar and knocked both plates off the table in one sweeping motion.
Roman held his hands in the air, fork still in one of
them, and looked at me in shock.
“You don’t get to sit there and just eat your
breakfast after you’ve just ripped my heart out of my chest!” I yelled.
“How? How did I do that when your heart was never even
accessible to me? So don’t…don’t stand
there and yell at me pretending like you were in love with me or something,
Kimbella. We both came into this knowing what it was. And it’s over now,” he
said somberly.
Review:
Absolutely fabulous love story about finding yourself. Kimbella decides that for her 25th birthday she is going to change everything about herself and make herself a better person. Along the way she finds that she is not the new person she is trying to be, but she isn't who she used to be either. And love has a way of sneaking up on you when you are least expecting it. But the course of true love never did run smooth. Love may not be enough this time.
While some of the information about the characters comes in odd places changing how you view the,. the story resolves happily. I think I would like being friends with these people.
I give this book 4 out of 5 clouds.
