2.5 stars — This book profoundly underwhelmed me. And it started off really good too, so that’s a bummer. First some background: I have a huge beef with society and its standards of beauty…and it filters over to my love of romances and the completely generic cookie cutter heroes we always get (abs for days, […]
It was too short to get really invested with the characters. Cute, short, erotic romance. I mean there isn’t much you can say about 54 pages. Girl likes boy, boy goes up for auction, girls friend bids on him for her and wins, girl flakes on win, boy is intrigued, shenanegins ensues. Ends in steaminess. […]
When Amelia’s identical twin double books herself a date, she calls on her fairthful sister to get her out of the jam. It was a bit hilarious to see her try to wiggle her way out of going, but in the end she caved because thats what sisters do. I found Amelia to be a […]
It was pretty good. I’m not a real big contemporary fan, but I love a good enemies to romance/opposites attract trope. And this fit the bill. I really like Sara Ney’s books so I usually always read them, especially the sports romance ones. Those are like my kryptonite man. And I couldn’t tell you why. […]
Eh, I’m pretty disappointed in this one. Charlotte seems too wishy washy and I don’t believe her feelings are real towards Jackson. She is unrelatable to me. I just flat out don’t like her, and because I don’t like her I don’t want her to have an HEA. Jackson seems to like her for some […]
4 stars — I was a bit worried about this one, b/c the premise is not usually something I can tolerate. I’m not big on lying/deceiving, and I worried this scenario would feel like cheating. But honestly? It wasn’t too bad. Lucy and Dante had only been on, like, 2 dates, so it wasn’t like […]
Oh man, these two are hilariously sexy. Kip is a big, hairy sarcastic dude with a bit of a chip on his shoulder. Can’t really blame the guy with his upbringing. He calls himself her Hairy godmother. Haha. Their chemistry is a bit awkward and I felt the romance jump from slow to intense real […]
3 stars — So…hmmm. I’ve not had luck connecting with Ms. Quinn’s books in the past… In fact, I’ve DNF’d the 2 I’ve tried. Part of it is just a disconnect in our senses of humour. But another part is that the types of editing mistakes left in her books at publication annoy the crap […]
I had to refresh my memory with this one by reading the blurb again and now I find myself wanting to re-read the whole book again! It was so original and fresh. A great slow simmering romance that over flowed once it hit boil! Scarlett was so nerdy and sexy at the same time! Ugh, […]
