Playing For Her Heart by Megan Erickson

Playing For Her Heart by Megan Erickson

3.5 stars — I still loved the nerdiness of this one, but I really noticed the lack of depth in this story.  I get that there isn’t a lot of time to get into things in these short formats, but then I guess I wish that the back stories weren’t screaming out for depth…because then […]

Punk 57 by Penelope Douglas

Punk 57 by Penelope Douglas

3.5 stars — Well.  Huh.  I can’t decide if Ms. Douglas is an author for me.  Her books simultaneously suck me in and intrigue me, and make me feel really uncomfortable.  And this book followed that trend.  Honestly, it was kind of fucked up.  But there were parts I just loved.  So I always end […]

Memphis by Ginger Scott

Memphis by Ginger Scott

3.5 stars — I love this author, but I had a hell of a time staying engaged in this book.  I honestly can’t tell if it was my mood, or the book, or perhaps a mix of the two (the book exacerbated by my mood).  I would find my mind wandering constantly, and I would have […]

Sacked by Jen Frederick

Sacked by Jen Frederick

3.5 stars — This was a fun sports story, and in general I liked both characters, but it was just missing something to really wow me. Knox was a bit of a dichotomy to me…he could be sweet and romantic, he had strong convictions, worked very hard, was extremely disciplined, all that good stuff.  I admired […]

Fake Wife by Stacey Lynn

Fake Wife by Stacey Lynn

3.5 stars — This one started off really strong, and then somewhere along the way I started losing my enthrallment with it.  It did pull me back in for the ending though.  I started this one after midnight and stayed up late needing to read one more chapter, so it was very compelling to begin […]

Love Between Enemies by Molly E. Lee

Love Between Enemies by Molly E. Lee

3.5 stars — This one started off fantastically and ended leaving me super duper happy…  It was just the middle that stretched a bit more than I’d like.  Basically the book suffered from some similar pitfalls, or rather things that bothered me, as the first book in this series; I think I just had slightly […]

Holiday Wishes by Jill Shalvis

Holiday Wishes by Jill Shalvis

3.5 stars — This one started off really strong, and while I’ve only read 1.5 other books in this series, it was still nice to see all the characters that I’d already fallen in love with again.  I loved how we didn’t have to wait too long to find out what happened between Sean and […]

Winter Ball by Amy Lane

Winter Ball by Amy Lane

3.5 stars — I enjoyed this one, but to be truthful it just made me want to reread The Locker Room (which I did…review coming soon).  I liked both Skipper and Richie, but they did feel a bit young…but that could be just the nature of these two characters.  They did feel authentic though, that wasn’t […]

The Trouble with Mistletoe by Jill Shalvis

The Trouble with Mistletoe by Jill Shalvis

3.5 stars — I’ve been wanting to read this one since it came out last year, and was so excited when I snagged a copy on sale (not to mention a paperback copy).  It was definitely a delightful Christmas romance, but it started stronger than it finished for me. My one major problem with the […]
