My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Lorie and Weina are looking forward to celebrating the Lunar New Year and all it has to offer, but their favorite parts are the red envelopes they receive from family. In a twist they didn’t expect, in the course of shopping for the perfect gift that day, they’ve misplaced the prized envelopes! The sisters retrace their steps through the day to find them. Along the way, they teach us a bit about the excitement of Lunar New Year, asian customs, culture, foods and traditions.

A fun read with lots to learn along with an incredibly charming and well written story. Recommend!

Managing Mischief (Shattered Embrace #2)Managing Mischief by Alyndra Quinn
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

In book 1, there’s loads of chemistry and inability to keep their hands to themselves. In book 2, Ashton and Zachary have signed the contract to bind themselves into a relationship and are facing a lot more everyday issues leading to a lot different feelings than in book 1.

Here, we find them shopping together, choosing jewelry to send a message to everyone in SE, dealing with business and misunderstandings, and finding themselves having to choose one another again. There’s so much anticipation and emotion involved beyond passion and it’s a beautiful but bumpy path they find themselves on towards one another.
