Coming Home For Us audio review

I thought this book was so sweet! Elijah and Maddie have an emotional journey. I really enjoyed their friendship and soon timing was right to change to more. Elijah suffered a big loss and Maddie had a loss, too but it didn't mean that things couldn't work between them. Elijah had a second chance at love and Maddie has loved Elijah for years but it wasn't able to work between them. I was cheering for them. I loved how Andi Arndt and Jason Clarke brought these characters to life!



The Wilder Brothers from New York Times best-selling author Carrie Ann Ryan continue with Elijah’s last chance at redemption and love.

I made plans. I followed the path. I fell in love.

Then the world took her away from me.

I swore to never love again, and I’ve done all I could to keep that vow.

But life finds a way, and I can’t stop this burning attraction with my best friend.

Maddie stood by me when my world shattered.

She deserves more than a broken man who promised to never love again.

Only I swear she feels the same way about me. And I have no idea what to do about it.

Now she might leave the Wilders, and I can’t tell her to stay—even if it means shattering the one piece of me I have left.

Katana Collins - Famously Flawed

I love Katana Collins's books and while this one was short, it was fun and fast to get lost in! Emma and Pierce have put the real world aside and are tied up in their bubble, enjoying each other in Croatia. Things aren’t supposed to get serious, but feelings are hard to put aside. And some friendships aren’t meant to be. I enjoyed the chemistry between Emma and Pierce and the way they care for each other. This story ends on a slight cliffy, and I can’t wait to read more in Famously Mine! 






A swoon-worthy sequel to Famously Bad from USA Today Bestselling Author Katana Collins! If you like smoking hot romance with billionaire alpha heroes, you’ll love this steamy, short read!

One week ago, I never would have dreamed that I’d be on a Mediterranean vacation with massive movie star, Pierce Whitley. Me. The second grade teacher who was left at the altar just over a week ago was now traipsing around Croatia with a yacht under foot and a movie star on my arm.

But vacations are temporary—and so are whirlwind romances.

There's no future for us.

A love like ours was never supposed to be.

So when our very private moment on a beach becomes public and plastered all over the tabloids, it unleashes Pierce's demons and a closet so full of skeletons, it might as well be a graveyard.

Pierce Whitley isn't just flawed...

He's famously flawed.

From USA Today and Amazon Charts bestselling author Meghan Quinn comes a fun, sexy story about the family dynamics that can stand in the way of rekindling a romance.

Prepared for a good time, Tessa is thrilled to spend the weeks before her sister’s wedding at their family’s favorite vacation spot: Santorini. Sandy beaches, stonewashed houses, attractive men—it’s heaven.

But Tessa’s idea of a girls’ trip comes to a screaming halt when her sister thinks it’s high time Tessa finds some love herself. Unfortunately, Tessa forgot about the deal she made back in high school: she has to find her soulmate before her sister’s wedding. Or else.

As she dodges suitors and her sister’s pranks, Tessa finds an ally in the oh-so-dreamy Myles, her childhood crush who just so happens to work at the resort. But Myles is dealing with some family conflict of his own. He’s elated at being reunited with Tessa, but his father’s refusal to acknowledge his interest in the family business and relegating him to only grunt work casts a dark cloud.

As Tessa and Myles help navigate their way through their families’ antics, they begin to realize that their past feelings may have a future—if only they can turn their island fantasies into something real.

J.R. Ward - Lassiter review

OH MAN. Not going to lie here, I was worried about this book. I've been to previous J.R. Ward events and she dropped little hints about it. But! I wasn't going to let it stop me from reading. And I wanted to stay and dwell in the BDB world a little longer. I didn't want to read it too quickly because I was excited :) And if you were at Readers on the River in 2022, there was something from that event that ended up in the book! #IYKYK  

This book was so, so good! I was completely wrapped up in the BDB world and all that Lassiter had been through. I wanted a HEA for him!! This book had twists and turns and I couldn't put it down. I don't want to ruin any of Lassiter's journey but if you've made it this far in the series, you'll enjoy this book. J.R. Ward has a way with words and I felt for these characters. Do yourself a favor and grab your copy!





Destiny, duty and desire clash in this epic new novel in J. R. Ward’s #1 New York Times bestselling Black Dagger Brotherhood series…

Lassiter, the fallen angel, is too good at the savior business. In his new role overseeing the fates of all vampires, he’s influenced outcomes he shouldn’t have- so the Creator is calling him home. But the angel has a reason to stay in Caldwell. He’s bonded with a mysterious female who’s seemed to appear from out of nowhere… and has powers that defy all reason.

Rahvyn is well aware that she doesn’t belong in the present. And she never intended to stay, for her true place is in the past. Lassiter proves to be undeniable, however, and she lets herself fall for the angel- until a secret he’s been keeping comes out and she fears that for him, it’s not about love, but duty.

As the Omega’s son reestablishes the Lessening Society, and the Brotherhood must resume the deadly war- an unfathomable tragedy occurs. In the aftermath, Rahvyn has to decide whether to stay and help- or save herself from an immortal heartbreak she knows will crush her very soul…

Jessica Lemmon - America’s Sweetheart review

 

A disgraced starlet returns home to lick her wounds, and discovers her high school sweetheart is as tempting as ever... 

America's Sweetheart by Jessica Lemmon is now live! 

 

Old flames burn bright. 

 

A disgraced starlet returns home to lick her wounds, and discovers her high school sweetheart is as tempting as ever… 

 

When Allison Murphy left for California, she gave herself a new name and never looked back. Now her carefully crafted good-girl image is getting torn to shreds in the press thanks to her Oscar-winning A-hole of an ex-boyfriend. She escapes to the only safe haven she knows and trusts—her hometown—to take a breather while she plots her triumphant Hollywood comeback. However, when Allie arrives at her parents’ house, Jackson Burke answers the door instead. And suddenly the past comes rushing back…

 

First kiss. First time. First love. Jackson Burke shared a lot of firsts with Allie back in the day. And when she left, she took half his heart with her. Except she’s back, and even though he swore he’d keep his distance, he finds himself directly in her path now that her parents have hired him to remodel their house. His plan? Finish the job. Ignore his ex. Until one hot kiss goes viral, and suddenly, they’re the next big celebrity couple. Jackson agrees to play the part for Allie's sake, but there’s zero chance he’ll allow her close enough to break his heart all over again.

My Review

I adore Jessica Lemmon's books and this one was no exception! I was very quickly lost in Jackson and Allison's story. This was a book I found I couldn't put down. Ohhhh the feels! Jessica Lemmon is one who does a great job bringing her characters to life and gets the reader to feel for them. This second chance love story was captivating, endearing and I didn't want Jackson and Allison's story to end. She is a young, Hollywood star who trusted the wrong people and she finds herself back home while the dust settles. Allison is the last person Jackson expects to see again, yet the pull between them is still there. While they don't know each other anymore, the past is in front of them and they work on being friendly. Jackson has never forgotten his first love. He has tried to move on and he wasn't holding out hope for her, but when he unexpectedly sees her again, all bets are off. I enjoyed the way this story moves from each of their perspectives and the way the past intertwines with the now. I love a good second chance romance and this book didn't disappoint! This read was fantastic and if you're looking for a feel good, HEA, this is your book! Be sure to grab your copy!

I was excited to get this book! The synopsis sounded soooo good! And guess what!? IT WAS! I adored this book and was lost in ALL. THE. FEELS. Jess is the ultimate book boyfriend. Oh man, oh man!

Devney Perry - Coach review

 


Football star. Single dad. And once, a long time ago, mine. 


Coach by Devney Perry is now live! 


I’ve spent the better part of a decade forgetting Ford Ellis. If he had just stayed away from Montana, I might have erased the memory of his striking blue eyes and rugged smile forever. Avoiding him was easy when the only place I saw his face was on ESPN—and a remote control could fix that problem.

Except my boss just hired Ford as the new head coach for the Treasure State Wildcats. Not only will I be stuck watching him on the sidelines this season, but avoiding him will be impossible now that we’re working together.

Maybe I haven’t forgotten Ford. Maybe I still dream about what we might have been. Maybe he hasn’t forgotten me either.

Except those maybes won’t change the fact that we were never meant to be. Maybe he was mine once. But as of today, the only thing I’ll be calling Ford Ellis is Coach.

My Review

OMG! This book was so good! I couldn't put it down! Millie and Ford found themselves face to face again after a decade apart. While previously they were just friends, feelings were there. Millie is in a good spot. She loves her job, she has friends, but she doesn't have someone special in her life. Ford is trying to get back on his feet. He's trying to find a better life for himself and his daughter. The chemistry between Millie and Ford is still there all these years later. I was cheering them on! This story had a good flow and I was lost in Millie and Ford's journey. It was a sweet and swoony read!
