Stuck with You by Ali Hazelwood

Stuck with You by Ali Hazelwood

4.5 stars — Damn!  I seem to be in a novella mood, and luckily I also seem to be finding ones that succeed despite the short format!  Yay me!  Yay books! Can I start off by saying that I adored this narrator?  She was both cute and sassy, and while I genuinely have NO IDEA […]

Counterpoint by J.E. Birk

Counterpoint by J.E. Birk

4 stars — While I found the beginning a bit slower, I really enjoyed Jeremy and Aaron together.  I felt like the issues they each faced were unique, something not as often explored. Jeremy was a playboy on the surface, but he was dealing with something pretty life changing in the background, something he didn’t […]

Coming in from the Cold by Sarina Bowen

Coming in from the Cold by Sarina Bowen

3.5 stars — Hmmm…after rereading my review for book 2, it looks like this series might feel the same for me: good, but not great.  I think this can happen a lot with author’s earlier works. This one had a pretty strong start, and I didn’t even mind the quick move to steamy scenes…sometimes that […]

Awk-Weird by Avery Flynn

Awk-Weird by Avery Flynn

4 stars — This was just the kind of light, fun, sexy romp I was looking for.  Which is not to say that it was without depth, just that there was enough other fun stuff to keep me hooked and entertained. Our characters were hella complicated.  They were both fucked up by stressful childhoods, and […]

More Than One Night by Sarah Mayberry

More Than One Night by Sarah Mayberry

4 stars — This one surprised me a bit with the way things played out, and in particular Charlie’s character.  She could be a bit hard to love and understand sometimes, but all the same I mostly did get what made her up.  She was damaged in a different way than I was anticipating, and […]

4.5 stars — Is it weird to say that I enjoyed this one so much more than I was expecting?  Like, why were my expectations so low?  Or was it that I had none?  I don’t know, but Oz and Reeve surprised and delighted me from almost the first page. I don’t think I was expecting […]

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 […]

4 stars — I’m actually a newsletter subscriber for Ms. Erickson, and I remember seeing the chapters coming one at a time in my email.  I think I read the first chapter and was definitely intrigued, but little known fact: I’m not a fan of the serial format.  I don’t have a good memory, and […]

The Score by Elle Kennedy

The Score by Elle Kennedy

4.5 stars — I read this one on vacation, and of course couldn’t get the review written right away, so this one is probably not going to be as coherent…that’s my fair warning. I CAN’T BELIEVE I LOVED DEAD!!!  Honest to god folks, I wasn’t even looking forward to his story, I just couldn’t see […]
