3 stars — I’m not in the best reading mood, but all things considered I was hoping for more from this book. If it hadn’t been a NetGalley, I probably would have DNF’d and moved on as it just wasn’t a match for me. The thing that disappointed me the most is that the characters […]
3.5 stars — I definitely laughed out loud, and even groaned on more than one occasion. Josh does a pretty good job of narrating the book himself, which makes sense since he’s a motivational speaker…it would likely give him a leg up. Pun unintended, but still funny. I definitely enjoyed his earlier stories, and it totally […]
4 stars — This one was slow for me to get into, but once I did it delivered right to the end It took a bit to warm up to Alex. I’m sensitive, so he came across mean at first. I do know people who have that personality, and I will admit I’m taken aback […]
3.5 stars — I’ve only recently gotten into historical romance, and I’m probably pretty picky about it. While this didn’t wow me like Ms. Kleypas or Ms. Dare, for a debut it was pretty solid. This was my first time listening to Ms. Jasicki, but I really enjoyed her. It’s funny, something about her accent […]
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 […]
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 — 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, […]
3.5 stars — This book started out pretty solidly, and I was actually laughing at bits here and there. Then I hit a snag, and I mostly set that snag aside, but I don’t know…I guess in the end it was harder to suspend my disbelief by the end. I’ll start with the narrators. I’ve […]
4 stars — I’m intrigued. It helps that I really enjoy the Teddy Hamilton/Jacob Morgan combo, so it was super easy to listen to. I’m hoping I don’t get too annoyed by Mark. Part of me gets where his distrust comes from, part of me is wincing as he steps over lines he shouldn’t cross […]
