Savage Truth (Hidden Valley Elite Book 2) by Isla Vaughn – Review by Angelina Frazzini

Savage Truth: A High School Bully Romance (Hidden Valley Elite Book 2)Savage Truth: A High School Bully Romance by Isla Vaughn
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book is book two of the series. Definitely should be read after the prequel and book one. This is the conclusion to Cole and Riley’s story.

Cole and Riley have a complicated relationship. Riley is still trying to end things between Lucas and her mom. She doesn’t trust that this is a real chance for them. Cole still has his anger toward Riley in regards to what happened to his mom. When it really matters though, Cole is able to set it all aside when Riley needs him.

Riley and Cole are great characters. Riley learns to trust someone other than her mom and her uncle by the end. She’s also very strong and you see her use the skills she’s learned from her uncle when she really needs to. This was a good conclusion to Riley and Cole’s story. I can’t wait to see how the rest of the series goes.

I’ll Love You Tomorrow (Trading Heartbeats Trilogy Book 3) by Julie Navickas – Review by Angelina Frazzini

I'll Love You Tomorrow (The Trading Heartbeats Trilogy, Book #3)I’ll Love You Tomorrow by Julie Navickas
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is book three of the series. These can be read as a standalone but honestly, they’re all so good you should just start at the beginning.

Lauren knew from the moment she met Mitch he was going to be the one for her. Was she a little young to know that? Maybe. But that doesn’t change the fact that they did in fact get married. As with most things, the shine wore off. The routine of marriage and working started getting in the way. Lauren doesn’t understand why Mitch seems so distant from her but she’s got her restaurant to pour all her energy into. Will this be the last straw for their marriage or will they be able to rebuild?

I really enjoyed this book. There was a lot of emotion and up and downs that I was on the edge of my seat waiting to find out what would happen with Lauren and Mitch. I finished this book so quick! I was sucked in! It’s so well written you immediately feel like you have a stake in what happens to these characters. I highly recommend!

Non-Verbal by Molly Zenk – Review by Angelina Frazzini

NonVerbalNonVerbal by Molly Zenk
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book is a standalone novel. This is the first book I’ve read by this author. Honestly, I wasn’t sure how I was going to like it but this book was so impactful!

The story is about Emerson, a teenager with a slew of labels as though they define her. She is labeled as having autism spectrum disorder as well as being non-verbal. This book takes you through Emerson’s story. She knows what she’d like to say but the words are lost. Yet she has to deal with people talking about her like she’s not there and doesn’t understand. She watches her parents struggle while also trying to protect her and give her some semblance of independence. While also realizing that while she’s been given the tools to cope sometimes her reaction is outside of her control.

This book is really powerful. I think everyone could benefit from reading it. It definitely gives you a first hand perspective of what it might be like to deal with and cope with the labels individuals on the spectrum have to deal with. This is a very well written book and I highly recommend anyone read this!

Right in Front of You (Morris Valley Gang Book 1) by Brooke May – Review by Angelina Frazzini

Right in Front of You: Volume One Brinley and AdrianRight in Front of You: Volume One Brinley and Adrian by Brooke May
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book is book one of the series. This isn’t the first book I’ve read by this author and as usual I wasn’t disappointed.

Brinley had to leave her friends behind and while they stayed as close as they could, time will tell as Brinley is moving back to Morris Valley. The only issue is, somewhere along the way she gained a stalker and now she’s realizing, maybe she needs some protection. Adrian is a rancher. It’s not what most people expect so when people find, namely woman, they don’t tend to stick around. Brinley isn’t most women. Adrian can already tell. She is a breath of fresh air he didn’t know he needed. Once he finds out that Brinley needs protection, he makes it his mission to make sure she’s safe. Is there more between these two than just keeping her safe?

I enjoyed this book. It was different than most I’ve read in terms of Brinley’s job. It was a refreshing change of pace. Adrian is a little alpha and very protective and I just love a protective hero. This was a good read!!

Just One Time (Beaumont Creek, #1)Just One Time by Samantha Baca
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is book one of the series. This is a best friends to lovers romance. I just loved this book!

Abby is feeling some type of way after turning 40 and not having a family. She’s on the verge of taking matters into her own hands but man it can get expensive. After talking her feelings out with her best friend Nate and a conversation with her sister, she starts thinking that maybe the answer is right in front of her. Nate has had feelings for Abby for forever it seems. It’s an easy answer when she asks him to help her start a family. They agree it will be just one time and if it doesn’t work, Abby will explore other options. The problem is, the chemistry between the two of them is intense and what if they don’t want it to be just one time? Lack of communication leads to some issues. Will Nate ever be honest about his feelings? Will Abby? Or will Abby be raising their baby by herself?

I really enjoyed this book. It instantly sucked me in and I read it in one sitting! The chemistry between Abby and Nate jumped off the pages. Both were such great characters! You can’t help but feel frustrated at the lack of communication between them but you understand why. I definitely recommend this book! Can’t wait to see what comes next.

Savage Lies (Hidden Valley Elite Book 1) by Isla Vaughn – Review by Angelina Frazzini

Savage Lies: A High School Bully Romance (Hidden Valley Elite Book 1)Savage Lies: A High School Bully Romance by Isla Vaughn
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book is book one of the series. I highly recommend reading the prequel to better understand what’s going on in book one. This book pulled me in from the beginning and I just had to keep reading to see what was going to happen.

Riley is the new kid at school. The only problem is, she was here once before very briefly. She has no idea what has gotten into her mom but she’s determined to figure it out. The only thing she needs to do is stay off Cole’s radar. That might be difficult to do. Riley remembers the amazing kiss she shared with Cole the first time around even if he doesn’t. Their chemistry is off the charts and for whatever reason, she can’t find their connection. Cole is determined to split his dad and Riley’s mom up. Riley is just collateral damage at this point.

This book is full of angst! I couldn’t get enough. I can’t wait to jump into book two and find out how the story continues! I highly recommend this series!

Braving Lily (True Platinum Series Book 7) by Morgana Bevan – Review by Angelina Frazzini

Braving Lily (True Platinum, #5)Braving Lily by Morgana Bevan
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the fifth book in the series but can definitely be read as a standalone. This book pulled me in from the beginning and I finished it so fast!

Lily is used to people using her for her money and connections. She just wants to find someone to connect with. She offers up a date for a charity auction. The problem: the person she should be meeting doesn’t show up! Is anyone worth the effort at this point? Rhys hasn’t been ready to date and he certainly isn’t about to start with a rockstar. Especially one like Lily. That is until he realizes he may have pegged her wrong. After spending some time together, Rhys and Lily realize they don’t want it to end. What will happen when their feelings are tested?

I really enjoyed this book. It was different than most rockstar tropes I’ve read and it was refreshing. Rhys grew as a character pretty quickly and you could see that change. Their chemistry was very evident! I highly recommend this book!

A Dress To Remember: A Fairy Tale by K.L. Small – Review by Angelina Frazzini

A Dress To Remember: A Fairy TaleA Dress To Remember: A Fairy Tale by K.L. Small
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the first book I’ve read by this author. I don’t usually read this genre either but it was a good read. This book is full of adventure and growth.

Princess Zarina isn’t a character many would like at first. Her Royal Advancement Ceremony is approaching and she just has to have a special dress regardless of any danger that may be present. Princess Zarina quickly learns she’s capable of more than she thought and discovers who she truly is. She discovers strengths she didn’t know she had.

There is a lot of character growth throughout this story and my opinion of Princess Zarina changed by the end. If fairy tales are your thing, this book is for you.

Ocean’s Three (Made In Heaven #2) by Elena Kincaid – Review by Angelina Frazzini

Ocean's Three (Made In Heaven, #2)Ocean’s Three by Elena Kincaid
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book is book two of the series. It can be read as a standalone. If you are looking for a spicy m/f/m romance this one is for you.

Jocelyn is struggling after the death of her mother. She can’t handle the guilt she feels so she pushes everyone close to her away. Her dreams are trying to tell her something but it can’t be real right? They are dreams after all. Cameron dreams of Jocelyn every night. He’s not sure the significance but he’s always seen things others haven’t. His dreams take a turn when Reed makes an appearance as well. Will these three connect or are these dreams just that?

This wasn’t a book I’d typically read but it was really well written and pulled me in. It didn’t lag anywhere and the story was engaging. I’m glad I picked it up!

Your Trainer Says Hi! (Vengeful Vixens Book 2) by Indie Sparks – Review by Angelina. Frazzini

Your Trainer Says Hi!Your Trainer Says Hi! by Indie Sparks
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book is book two of the series. It can be read as a standalone but there are some crossover characters so if you want to understand who’s who, read book one first. Both are good so you won’t be mad.

Nadine is doing well! She’s got her juice bar, her job, and her best friend. Everything is great! Until she receives a phone call that sends everything into a tailspin. Now, she has to confront soon to be EX boyfriend, Heath, and figure out how to keep the juice bar afloat. As payback, or to start, Nadine is stealing Heath’s personal trainer. She is sure Wick is not her type so she’s just going to get a couple months of sessions as reimbursement. That is until she finds herself in his hot tub and it all changes from there. Wick is honestly just what Nadine needs. Someone to be nice to her but also not so nice (when it counts).

Wick wasn’t at all what I was expecting but man is he everything! He was surprisingly nice (and that was important to him) but super alpha which is great! Nadine is strong and independent. She has a hard time letting Wick be nice but she comes around. These two have intense chemistry! This book was so good!

Echoing Hearts (Book 1 of The Echo Series)Echoing Hearts by C.R. Alam
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This books is book one of the series. This is the first book I’ve read by this author but I wasn’t disappointed. This was such a good book I couldn’t put it down!

Rae has decided, after seeing what it did to her mom, that love is just not for her. She is independent. She gets to travel and see the world. Why would she need to be tied to a man? Dean doesn’t let anything get him down. To make sure of that, he’s swearing off women. Neither one of them expect that one weekend can change everything. Why would they? They are happy with how their lives are.

These characters are so well developed. Rae and Dean are both stubborn. Rae is patient but also knows not to take any crap. Their chemistry just about jumps off the page. You couldn’t help but root for them! This book has some ups and downs and so much heart and emotion. It’s truly well written and I can’t wait to dive into book two. I definitely recommend this book!

Cry Baby (Pierce Brothers Book 4) by Belinda Williams – Review by Angelina Frazzini

Cry Baby (Pierce Brothers, #4)Cry Baby by Belinda Williams
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book is book four of the series but can be read as a standalone. I didn’t read the first three books but didn’t feel like I lost anything. It might be a good idea to read them first to be introduced to other characters.

Noah is lost and in over his head as he finds himself the guardian of a baby. He does what anyone would do, calls his brother for help. Luckily his brother knows Amy and Amy happens to be good with kids. At first glance Amy can tell Noah is overwhelmed. She wants nothing more than to help. So she finds herself hired as Amelia’s nanny. Amy is sunshine and rainbows and Noah is definitely not. Can these two get passed their differences? There is so much more to their story but you should really read it yourself.

This was a really good read. The characters have depth and are a tad complicated. There’s secrets and a lot of emotion. This book is well written and I’m glad I picked it up!

Ale’s Fair in Love and War by Sylvie Stewart – Review by Angelina Frazzini

Ale's Fair in Love and War (Love on Tap, #1)Ale’s Fair in Love and War by Sylvie Stewart
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book is the first book in the series. It can be read as a standalone. This romantic comedy is where it’s at. This was such a good read.

Cash and Hollis don’t exactly start off on the right foot. The prank war that ensues doesn’t help. With Cash’s brewery and Hollis’ dog grooming business next door to each other, things may only go down hill. All that to say, there is very clearly attraction for the other from both parties. Lots of humor and banter while these two figure out what side of the line they want to be on.

This book is well written. The characters are well developed that you don’t hate anyone even when they aren’t necessarily getting along. Definitely recommend giving it a read as Sylvie Stewart does a great job as usual!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book is the prequel to a new series. This was a quick read but it’s a good one!

You are pulled in right from the beginning with Riley’s character. The back story is intriguing and you definitely want to find out what’s going on. You can tell that while Cole and his family are well off, they are just as dysfunctional as the next family. This book did a really good job of setting the stage for the series. It introduced characters and gave some back story. You get hooked just enough!

I can’t wait to read this series!

Throwing the CurveThrowing the Curve by Lauren Fraser
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book is book two of the series. You don’t need to read book one to follow along but I would because both are so good!

Peyton has always strived to do the right thing. How she found herself in this pickle she’ll never know? How did she not know he was married? Ryan has always been told the team comes first. When his teammate makes a mess of things, he steps in to help, begrudgingly. He doesn’t believe for a second that Peyton is innocent in all this. Ryan and Peyton’s fake dating wasn’t supposed to be a whole thing but now they need to keep up the facade. Is it a facade though or do they develop feelings for each other (other than hate)? Will the team always come first or will Ryan’s priorities shift?

I really enjoyed this book! Ryan was a bit harsh at first but I get why. His character evolved well throughout the book. Peyton is also a great character. Their chemistry was wow! I couldn’t put this book down! I can’t wait to read book three!

The Golden Garza (Red Cage, #4)The Golden Garza by S. Ann Cole
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book is book four of the series but each book in the series is a complete standalone. This is the first book I’ve read of the series and while I didn’t feel lost at all, I’m definitely going back to read the rest because it was just too good not to.

This book sucked me in right from the beginning. I’m a sucker for the best friend’s brother trope. Soleil has loved Tripp for as long as she can remember. What she doesn’t know is how Tripp has felt about her. Soleil’s background is complicated and that’s why she needs the help of Red Cage. She needs to find out what secrets are hiding. I’m not going to give anything away but wow! Red a cage figures out what’s hiding and that’s all I’ll say about that. There is a lot of intrigue and mystery and I couldn’t put this book down!

Soleil and Tripp are great characters. There is so much chemistry between them it was jumping off the pages! Can’t forget best friend/sister Tillie. All the characters were well written making this a definite book to read!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book is book three of the series. It can be read as a standalone but honestly book three is so good just start with one and work your way through. I need to go back and read the other two. This book pulled me in right from the start. I was so interested in the dynamics of the characters right from the jump.

Krysta has only truly loved one man her whole life. Too bad that went south really quick. To make matters worse, he’s her brothers best friend so not only does she have to keep it a secret, she still has to see him from time to time. Kasper knows he messed up all those years ago. That doesn’t change how he feels about Krysta and always has. Keeping the secret hasn’t been easy but as soon as some bad stuff goes down, his only option is to fess up. Can he get Krysta’s forgiveness or is all hope lost?

This book was intense. Quite the rollercoaster of emotions! I couldn’t put it down. I read it in one sitting. Definitely some suspense and mystery to keep you on your toes. I highly recommend giving this book a chance!

This book is book two of the series. This book can be read as a standalone. I didn’t read book one (which I need to rectify very quickly) but didn’t feel lost reading book two.

Jasmine, while she tries to ignore memories of her past, seemingly has everything going for her. She got a business, her best friend and her long term relationship.

This book is book two of the series. This book can be read as a standalone. I didn’t read any other books in the series before diving into this one and didn’t feel like I missed too much. I will be going back though because it was just that good.

Abi is working three jobs and is barely above water at this point. She doesn’t have time for anything let alone to find the man of her dreams. The reality tv ad might seem a little crazy but what does she have to lose at this point. Finn needs to clean up his image. What a better way then to show the world a dedicated husband. Finn isn’t happy about it but he doesn’t have much of a choice. That is until he meets Abi. Did they have to find the perfect girl for him? However, these two need to drop their walls or they may lose everything.

This book is a standalone, forbidden office romance. It’s the first book I’ve read by this author but I wasn’t disappointed.

Devlin is aiming for a promotion and he’s only got one to follow. No fraternizing. Seems easy enough- at first. Evelyn wants to move up so she’s going to take the steps she needs to, starting with this party. Going through a breakup makes things a bit challenging but she’s determined. She doesn’t count on Devlin and the last thing she needs is for them to get caught. Their connection is real but is it worth the risk?

She decided to use the gym membership her kids got her, regardless of how she felt when they gifted it to her.

I enjoyed this book. This book really captured Peggy’s emotions as she learns to embrace the changes she’s experiencing in herself and she is learning where to go from here. Truly an inspiration for anyone stuck and not sure how to move forward.

Petty's Crime (Satan's Devils MC Las Vegas #3)Petty’s Crime by Manda Mellett
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book is the third book in the series. It can be read as a standalone. I’ve read most of these books out of order and never felt like I was missing anything.

Petty has carefully crafted a persona for everyone to see. He keeps his past a secret. He was raised to protect women. So even though RoseLyn is infuriating, he takes his job as security detail seriously. RoseLyn is having a rough time escaping her abusive ex and if Petty weren’t so good at his job, she would have gotten rid of him immediately. He starts to grow on her though and she’s convinced she’s the only one that can see the softer side of him. Will Petty let Roselyn in?

I enjoyed this book. Not going to lie, I didn’t really like Petty when I started this book but he definitely redeemed himself. Petty and RoseLyn’s chemistry really pull you in!
