Fallen Crest Forever (Fallen Crest High #7) by Tijan

Fallen Crest Forever (Fallen Crest High #7) by Tijan

I was underwhelmed with this ending. It didn’t need to be a full length novel, an extended epilogue would have sufficed honestly.  Not a lot really happened, it was just a bunch of the same internal struggle between families and their feelings for one another.  And while I loved this series, I’m kinda mad at […]

The Studying Hours (How to Date a Douchebag #1) by Sara Ney

The Studying Hours (How to Date a Douchebag #1) by Sara Ney

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. […]

Roomies by Christina Lauren

Roomies by Christina Lauren

4 stars — Ahhhh, a marriage of convenience to screw over immigration!  I’m a sucker for that trope…and the meltworthy Irish accent didn’t hurt either. This was my first book narrated by K.C. Sheridan, and she was delightful to listen to.  I loved her pacing, her level of emotion, and her Irish accent for Calvin […]

Sweet Little Lies by Jill Shalvis

Sweet Little Lies by Jill Shalvis

4.5 stars — I finally decided to go back to the beginning of this series and start reading all the books I’d missed, because the group cast is so strong that you can’t help but want to read all their love stories.  And Pru and Finn did not disappoint!  There was a lot of heart, […]

The Prom Kiss by Maggie Dallen

The Prom Kiss by Maggie Dallen

4.5 stars — Dudes!  This was so a Lenore book!  I just ended it with the stupidest goofy grin on my face, I can’t even tell you!!  Ms. Dallen definitely has a formula for this series, but this one worked PERFECTLY for me from start to finish.  The difference between this one and the other […]

The Holiday Kiss by Maggie Dallen

The Holiday Kiss by Maggie Dallen

4.5 stars — Wow, I think Ms. Dallen has a formula.  As with The Candy Cane Kiss, I was dismayed with the attitude and inner thoughts of Luke at the beginning of this story.  He was…not nice.  He was seriously insensitive (probably from being a bit self-involved), and hence a bit of a bully and […]

A Cowboy Never Quits by Cindi Madsen

A Cowboy Never Quits by Cindi Madsen

4.5 stars — OK, this book turned into something much more than I was expecting.  Which makes it sound like I had low expectations, but I didn’t…I always enjoy Ms. Madsen’s work.  It was more just that I had no idea what to expect.  Normally I’m not huge on more than 2 POVs, but I […]

Mr. Fantasy by Cambria Hebert

Mr. Fantasy by Cambria Hebert

4 stars — I had a few problems with some things that happened in the shorter fantasy part of the story, but once we got into the reality section, I was sucked in and thoroughly enjoyed myself.  It had a lot of the elements that I enjoy about other books by Ms. Hebert…and some of […]

A Royal Christmas Princess by Scarlet Wilson

A Royal Christmas Princess by Scarlet Wilson

3.5 stars — Did you ever notice that it’s easier somehow when a book is just solidly meh?  This was not that book.  This book had meh moments interspersed with delicious Hallmark Christmas movie feels, and so it makes for kind of a hard review to write…and hard to decide on a rating.  In the […]
