4 stars — Nadine and Thrand actually weren’t what I was expecting. And in both cases that was a good thing. I was expecting Nadine to be a bit more confrontational and infuriated by Thrand’s antics…but while she occasionally became frustrated, she actually maintained a pretty good humour about his strange personality. She was wonderfully confident […]
3.5 stars — There were some absolutely shining moments in this book, moments where I laughed out loud, steamy moments that definitely worked for me. But there were also some little nitpicky things that bothered me, and if you know me at all, you know I’m not huge on miscommunication stuff in books. And this […]
3.5 stars — Ms. Mayberry is definitely a favourite author of mine, and while I could see touches of what I love about her writing in this novella, in the end I just didn’t connect with Tara and Reid as much as I was hoping. Both of our MCs were solid people, and I genuinely […]
4.5 stars — Huh. I probably should have reread the blurb before reading the book, and then I wouldn’t have been quite so startled with the turn of events. It’s weird how things are hinted in blurbs, but then you forget, and suddenly the author is murdering all your emotions. Another rollercoaster ride of a […]
4 stars — This was a solid sports romance. I think I would have enjoyed it more if I’d had the time to just binge listen to it, but alas I kept having longer breaks between spurts of listening, so it was hard to stay super sucked in. The narrators were fantastic. I feel like I […]
4 stars — This was a rollercoaster ride of a book, mostly with my emotions. There were parts that I absolutely ADORED beyond measure. And there were parts that strained my sense of empathy. I was happy in the end, but definitely emotionally exhausted. Quinn and Graham were an exercise in patience in the Now […]
4.5 stars — I’ll explain in too much detail at the end, but the start was super slow for me, and I set this book aside *twice*. But once I got over that initial hump, I just kept getting more and more into it, until I was racing to the finish. So definitely give it […]
3.5 stars — Well shit. I swore to my hubby that War was irredeemable. That the more time went on in the book, the less likely I was going to believe in his redemption. I was at a 3 stars, maybe less, thinking that this was just not my book (I’m not a motorcycle club […]
4 stars — Oh look, another review that’s choppy and all over the place and I’m too lazy to clean up. Wow, way more graphic and violent than I was expecting! Also way steamier, don’t know why I thought different. In the end, Sara’s persistent reluctance to acknowledge her feelings drove me up the wall. […]
4 stars — I definitely enjoyed this story, but I think my hopes were higher for it…which happens sometimes you know? I enjoyed both of our characters. They were flawed, and made epic mistakes at times, but deep down they were both really good genuine people. You wanted to root for them, both as individuals, […]
