OVERALL: 3.75 stars — As with all anthologies, there’s going to be ones that connect, and ones that don’t (because as readers, we all gravitate towards different things). This one was fairly solid though. There were 2 that I almost DNF’d, but pushed through and was happy I did (even if I still didn’t enjoy […]
ORIGINAL REVIEW: 3.5 stars — OK, major problem with writing this review — I was so sucked into the story that instead of following my modus operandi and writing the review immediately after finishing the book, I instead kept right on reading into book 3. So this review is going to be sorely lacking, b/c […]
ORIGINAL REVIEW: 4.5 stars — Sucked in right from the beginning of this book, mostly because of our delightfully hilarious heroine Kaitlyn (or Parker as I remember her more often). I mean seriously, how can I not love someone who hides in closets and doesn’t know how to interact with people? She’s so honest and […]
4 stars — Confession: I have never read Pride & Prejudice. *sigh* I know, throw stones, whatever… I don’t even have the desire to! *gasp* right? I have, however, watched and loved both the BBC 6-part mini series, and the more recent Keira Knightly edition. So I have a feel for the story and its characters. […]
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 […]
4 stars — Oh those Brooklyn Bruisers…how I missed them. Jason and Heidi were both so adorable and unique. It was odd reading about a hero who was so guy-y, so unapologetic about being bossy and who loved being in charge, and just…well guy-y. But at the same time Jason was SUPER sweet, kind, thoughtful, […]
4 stars — This whole series has been hard for me to read. The thing is, Ms. Scott is an amazing writer…that is not in question. But I’ve found that I guess I’m not that big a fan of somewhat more angsty reads. I don’t mean like teen angst shit (though the first book had […]
3.5 stars — I was really excited about this book after reading the prequel story “Christmas Interference” in the Hockey Holidays anthology. I experienced a lot of feels in that short story, and I connected with both Shane and Chloe. But the Shane and Chloe at the end of that story were a LONG WAYS […]
3.75 stars — Well whaddya know!! In the end, I enjoyed this one more than the first book! It had the same conundrum for me: fantastic writing with characters I care about who I simultaneously wanted to smack the fuck outta because they made me so mad with their drama and tendancy towards bad communication. […]
3.5 stars — I previously reviewed this book here. This is mainly a review of the audiobook narrator, as my opinion of the book really didn’t change much. The book still started off super strong, yet by the end I was left feeling frustrated and angry with both Reed and Nolan. It was just one […]
