The Baby Maker by Lili Valente

The Baby Maker by Lili Valente

4 stars — You know what?  This was just what I was in the mood for.  It was light, the conflict wasn’t huge and didn’t drag on.  It had characters that were genuinely likeable, and it made me laugh.  Success!  Was it perfect?  Eh, no, there were little things here and there that tweaked me…but […]

From Exes to Expecting by Laurel Greer

From Exes to Expecting by Laurel Greer

3 stars — Hmmm…this one was okay, but the characters were frustrating.  At the front of the book it said it was Ms. Greer’s debut, so I definitely think her writing and characters have improved over time.  I’m going to keep going on this series, b/c at this point I’m curious.  But I can’t wait […]

Totally Folked by Penny Reid

Totally Folked by Penny Reid

4 stars — I’m in a weird reading funk, so I won’t count out that that affected this review.  But once I finally gathered my lady bits and just sunk into the book, I was captivated and curious. Part of that was getting to return to a place that I already love filled with people […]

Just Folking Around by Penny Reid

Just Folking Around by Penny Reid

3.5 stars — I might not have been in the right mood to start this one. Raquel kind of left me a bit lost with who she was.  She was hung up a lot on how quirky she was, and hiding her quirkiness, and I’m sure we’ll find out more in the main novel, but […]

Eye Candy by Jiffy Kate

Eye Candy by Jiffy Kate

4.5 stars — Wow, I am seriously LOVING this series!!  I don’t know what it is about Jiffy Kate, but they write characters I can somewhat relate to, but always connect with. Maggie was such a fun quirky character.  She is soooooo sheltered, but once she starts to experience new things, she’s a delight.  It […]

Bayou Dreaming by Lexi Blake

Bayou Dreaming by Lexi Blake

4.5 stars — I feel like this series is just getting better and better…or maybe it’s that I was really excited about Zep and Roxie’s story, and while it took me on a wild ride, it definitely lived up to my expectations. Zep was a COMPLETE surprise for me.  I mean, I knew there would […]

Bayou Baby by Lexi Blake

Bayou Baby by Lexi Blake

4.5 stars — I don’t know you guys, I seem to be having a string of good luck with books.  This one captured me, sucked me in, made me smile, and had me looking forward to more stories in Butterfly Bayou. I don’t remember what impression I had of Seraphina in the first book, but […]
