Blitzed by Alexa Martin

Blitzed by Alexa Martin

4 stars — Another one where I’m debating between 3.5 and 4, but the good stuff that delighted me really delighted me, so I’m giving it the boost. I enjoy these books by Ms. Martin in this series, but I can’t say I’m particularly blown away.  There’s something about the writing that feels a bit […]

Sweet Temptation by Wendy Higgins

Sweet Temptation by Wendy Higgins

4 stars — This book both satisfied me greatly, and missed out on a few scenes I was curious about.  If you’re not into alternative POV books, then you can skip this one.  I LOVE them, especially when the originals are only in one POV, because this way you get insight into another character’s head.  […]

The Wallace Girl & The Sinclair Heir by Eliot Scott

The Wallace Girl & The Sinclair Heir by Eliot Scott

4 stars — Parts of this book were total 5 stars, I was so dug in and invested I had swooping tummy syndrome.  But other parts dragged and felt repetitive.  The pacing just wasn’t consistent.  I also believe that the book needed another editing pass (at minimum line/copy editing). Jojo was hard to picture sometimes, b/c she came […]

Baking Me Crazy by Karla Sorensen

Baking Me Crazy by Karla Sorensen

4 stars — I really enjoyed both Mr. Brinkley and Ms. Buhr as narrators.  I will admit that with the accents, it was the first time I had to slow down the narration instead of speed it up.  And also, not the greatest choice for road trips, b/c Mr. Brinkley in particular has a lot […]

#Awestruck by Sariah Wilson

#Awestruck by Sariah Wilson

4 stars — This one had the opposite effect of the previous two books…I spent a lot of time wary and annoyed with the decisions that Ashton was making early in the book, but she redeemed herself and the ending was satisfying!!  So weird. I saw a few reviewers mentioning how they feel like Evan […]

#Moonstruck by Sariah Wilson

#Moonstruck by Sariah Wilson

4 stars — Well, apparently this is going to be a theme.  I LOVE so much about these books, they just delight me to no end.  BUT, as with book 1, I personally did NOT like the conflict/climax and resolution.  It’s so hard when you love a book so much, and then the end doesn’t […]

On the Brink of Passion by Tamsen Parker

On the Brink of Passion by Tamsen Parker

4 stars — Quite a few of the books in this series start off in such a strange manner wrt the romance…and this one was not an exception.  I was initially super uncomfortable with the arrangement between Beckett and Jubilee.  It was awkward, and not hot, and just…fucked up.  But here’s what’s funny.  It was awkward […]

Prose Before Bros by Cathy Yardley

Prose Before Bros by Cathy Yardley

4 stars — I adore this author and the kinds of characters she brings to the table, and she didn’t disappoint in this book either.  Drill and Thuy were hella unique, and I loved how they just fit with one another. Now, I’ll start this review with an admission: I’m not a motorcycle club kind […]

I Am Forever by Wynne Channing

I Am Forever by Wynne Channing

4 stars — Oh man, that was an epic sequel!  I’m kind of sad there probably won’t be anymore in this series, because I’m curious about a few of the things that Ms. Channing set up.  But at least I wasn’t left unsatisfied, I really appreciate that. I will admit, I wanted to shake Zee […]

What Kills Me by Wynne Channing

What Kills Me by Wynne Channing

ORIGINAL REVIEW: 4.5 stars — well I just went through a very bizarre set of emotions. First, I finished the book and I was like “THAT’S IT???”, I couldn’t believe that while I was getting tired of reading serieses, that the one time I want more it’s not a series. I needed an EPILOGUE or […]
