RELEASE DAY: Salt by Mara White











AP new - synopsis.jpg

Salana Livingston did everything right, from taking her multi-vitamin to kneeling before bed to say her prayers every night. She followed the path her parents had planned before she was born, never questioned the role until the day a bus-load of sweaty kids from the Bronx got dropped at her parent’s horse farm.

Tiago Alcazar knew a life of hard knocks. An incarcerated father, a missing and strung-out mother who left him to rely on his aged grandmother for most of his life.

Tiago runs the mean streets of the neighborhood that raised him, living hand-to-mouth, everyday a gift, if he can just make it.

Burdened by a world that only wants to see her as perfect, Salana finds her greatest confidant in a boy society has labeled as worthless. Their paths cross too many times for their stubborn hearts to deny the connection, but can the delinquent and the debutant defy the odds and overcome the social constructs that condemn them?




I haven’t read a Mara White book that she’s written alone before. I’ve read a few with Ms. White co-writting with K. Larsen. Those books always blow me away. So I wasn’t surprised that this book was all-consuming. It was like a compulsion and I had to finish… except when I needed a break for my poor heart! I’ll warn you… this book was emotional. It seriously made me cry, it make me feel. It also made me chuckle and laugh out loud at some of Taigo’s quick wittedness. 

Ms. White gives us some really strong characters. I adored them and their differences. I mean, we have the age ol’ love equation… the good girl meets her bad boy and life is altered… like changes. Get your big girl panties on for this book! We’re gonna take a walk through a field of emotions and some of them hurt!

I received an ARC of this book with the hope that I would leave an Unbiased Opinion. I was not required to leave a review, positive or otherwise, and my opinions are just that... my opinions.












AP  new -about the author.jpg


Mara White is a contemporary romance and erotica writer who laces forbidden love stories with hard issues, such as race, gender and inequality. She holds an Ivy League degree but has also worked in more strip clubs than even she can remember. She is not a former Mexican telenovela star contrary to what the tabloids might say, but she is a former ballerina and will always remain one in her heart. She lives in NYC with her husband and two children and yes, when she’s not writing you can find her on the playground.
