My rating: 5 of 5 stars

What a great read! I really enjoyed every minute of this book. I’ve read stories by this author previously so I knew I would be in for a good ready but I definitely think that this is my favourite by her so far! I loved the original feel that the story had, it was completely different to anything I had read before. I loved the setting for the story also, so beautifully described by the author. I liked both Tenley and Teagan they were great characters to read about and had a great amount of chemistry between them. The way in which the author chose to write the story too was great, I found it really engaging from beginning to end. A great 5 star read and one that I would highly recommend.

Luv, luv, luv this book!!! I am in for all the future Rom Com Movie Nights!!

Lisa, Tina, Mindy and Ruby, the members of the Rom Com Movie Club. The group is all flustered because Tina is getting married soon and the tension is starting to mount. Once the girls all get to this month’s location, Lisa’s condo, they put on their facial masks, paint their toes and settle into the month’s selection. Soon, an unexpected ring of the doorbell brings Tina’s fiance and his very single, very delicious brother bearing cookies. Despite first meeting with Lisa covered in avocado mask and pj’s, there is an instant spark with Ryan. In a matter of days, Ryan and Lisa are inseparable. She knows this is all too fast. Probably too fast, so it won’t last. But for Lisa, that is the norm, people never stay.

From the beginning, everybody warned Ryan that Lisa had baggage. Even Lisa kept telling him that eventually he would tire of her and leave, she would understand. Ryan was unsure of how to handle this. When he thought of Lisa, he thought forever. As he started to get to know her more, Ryan started to understand where these statements came from, but he was determined to make sure that Lisa knew that his forever was truly forever. As the wedding came closer and happened, family, ex’s, history and even friends tried to get the way of the HEA for these rom com junkies. Will Lisa and Ryan get their HEA?

I love these characters. The sisterhood is magical!! I hope that we get to continue to see them in the next books.

Oh my goodness! The TJ’s will have you feeling all the emotions. Teagan, better known as the Love Guru, invites Tenley, the Love Grinch, to a weeklong couples resort the fun begins. They have only seen each other on the web. She doesn’t believe in love. He’ll prove her wrong. But, can they survive scandal, family pasts, and their personal beliefs? I loved this author’s writing. Real and humorous. A mixture of story and texts, this is the funniest I have ever read. It’s the first I’ve read of this author. I’m going to go back and read about the other couples from the week. Their stories look fantastic also. The characters are terrific. They feel like your friends. They are down to earth. The story had a great flow. I can’t tell you more without super spoiling it. You just have to hit one-click and buy that book. You won’t regret. A quick and fun read.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was definitely not what I expected and it took me a little by surprise , but in a good way ! Again o was reminded not to judge a book by its cover 😉❣️📕

Juliet , still recovering from her divorce is quite the lady and she’s for , does yoga , carries her age well and is rather Vi dependant and she’s a darn good English teacher just to add a cherry to the top 😉

Jim , he’s just a plain , good old soul with a real and honest heart , after his wife died he sort of let himself go but he’s picking himself up again and broadening his orison so to speak and that’s one of the reason he’s signed up for the English class and he finds so much more than Shakespeare and poetry, he finds his very own Juliet ❣️

I lived watching Jim and Juliet and they made me laugh , let me tell you old Jim is a real charmer and so easy to love and Juliet is one lucky lady❣️😉 these are 2 people who really deserve their happily ever after ❣️

What could be more fun than spending a week in Hawaii right before the holidays?

I’ll tell you.

Inviting the grumpiest stranger I’ve never met to join me.

She is Tenley Shay, the voice behind TJ ON PAR, a podcast for Practical Adult Relationships, who spends her days touting her disapproval of love and the practicality of remaining a single-bell for life.

When I, as my Love Guru persona, publish an article about spending a week at a couple’s retreat at my favorite Hawaiian resort, she’s quick to pass on her cynicism. So, I’m calling her bluff and inviting her on an all-expense paid trip to the Kamana Wanalaya Resort for a little R&R before the holidays.

If I can’t get her to fall in love, I’ll donate to her podcast.

But once we finally meet and are coupled together for the week, I find myself attracted to her feisty antics and her twisted sense of humor. Now I think I might be in way over my head.

Can I really ask the world’s biggest relationship cynic to risk everything, forget about her thoughts on love and take a real chance, with me?

Kiss Away Your Pain (Wounded Hearts, #2)Kiss Away Your Pain by Debbie Cromack
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I love a good slow burn and this is definitely that! The fire and passion that burns from the start between Enzo and Candi is undeniable. Even though they have both been dealt some crappy hands in life they are perfect for each other and truly help the other grow and heal from past trauma. He screws up and comes close to losing her at one point, but they manage to salvage what has been damaged.

My rating: <a href=”https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/5117174041″>5 of 5 stars</a><br /><br />
I loved the story of Austin & Casey. Austin is heartbroken when the woman he loves, Mavis, chooses his brother and they become engaged. He has the chance to make partner at his law firm and has the opportunity to head up the newest team in Chicago. Casey is Mavis’ best friend and former roommate who is smitten with Austin. Things however become kind of twisted when the opportunity Austin had been hoping for lands in his lap. He has to choose between building his life in Chicago or going back to LA to pursue his dreams. Which will he choose and will it be the right decision? At first I thought it was good for Mavis to find her happiness, however as the book went on I began to dislike her. It seemed like she didn’t want Austin to be happy especially if it was with her best friend. She was marrying his brother but seemed jealous at just about every turn with the budding romance between Austin and Casey. I feel the author did a good job bringing these characters to life for the readers. I’m looking forward to the next installment of this series.

This was a great 5 star read. I was excited to read Austin’s story. He ends up with a great job offer in Chicago and gets a roommate. And let’s just say that sparks flew between them. Will she help him get over his broken heart? As he gets to know Casey more there is a twist and Austin has to make a big decision. Will he make the right one?
This was a great romance that pulled me right in. All of the characters added a great element to the story, even though one made me very angry. The author does a great job with her writing and she pulls you right in. I look forward to reading the next book in the series and more from this author. 1-click and get started today.

A Crossbow ChristmasA Crossbow Christmas by Ann Swann
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the first book that I have read from this author and I fell absolutely in love with her writing. This was an amazing book that I could read over and over again. It had my full attention from the very beginning to the end.
The pandemic knocked Carina flat. Now that she is home from a months-long hospital stay, she hopes to have a big family Christmas. But no one seems to care. Her husband is working out of town and her grown children are scattered all around the country. The only one who seems to understand is a young man in her grief group. He offers her his family cabin in the mountains of Colorado. There, she is guaranteed to have a white Christmas, something she hasn’t had in a long time. She writes about it in her journal, trying to convince herself she can do it alone. But it still doesn’t seem possible. She isn’t adventurous, she’s always been everyone else’s caregiver.
I look forward to reading more of her books in the near future.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This continuation of this series is absolute perfection. Austin and Casey’s connection, their love, and their trials are all wound so intricately together, it makes you want to keep reading justto get to the end, and see how they truly end up!

Austin’s troubles with his brother and Mavis, his issues trying to let go, and his newfound love for Casey are all perfectly displayed in this heartwarming story of a c=California boy and a Chicago girl.

Casey’s love for those around her and her confidence issues toward her future are something I think most people can relate to. I loved getting to experience her coming in to herself and finally going for what she wants, with a little (or a lot) of pushing from our (My) favourite Templeton sibling.

I’m so excited for book three, to see where they all end up and experiencing the world of Templeton again.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Her best friend’s getting married. She should be happy for her. But she’s a broken soul trying to find her way through life.
He’s the brother of the groom, and he can’t take his eyes off her.
The Rom-Com Movie Club was an entertaining and fun book to read. It’s quirky, full of humor, happiness, sadness, and some tears. The author makes you feel it as if you were the character. Well some feelings. The Bridezilla best friend, yeah I didn’t feel that, but mostly the things everyone else went through yeah.
Lisa is a lost soul, who doesn’t really know what true love is. Growing up in the foster system she moved constantly and as well as had a new family, it became easier to be alone. And it worked for sometime till she met the 3 women who have since become her family. Best friends who meet once a month to have a rom-com movie/sleepover. What happens when someone enters her life that doesn’t want to leave?
Ryan just moved home and his brother is getting married. Jilted on more than one occasion, the hopeless romantic in Ryan hasn’t given up just yet. When he meets Lisa for the first time, he knows she’s special. He can’t keep his eyes off her, but he’s been warned to stay away. Now that he can.
Will Ryan heed the warning to stay away?
Will Lisa let him in?
These two have been through some things, things that could keep them together or tear them apart. The character growth that is written throughout for Lisa and even maybe for the bride to be Bridzilla. It’s phenomenal what the author did with these characters.
I feel maybe another story for these friends now that Lisa’s brother is moving home. I can only hope. Till then check this book out!

I really liked this book. Wondering if maybe there might’ve been a book before this focusing on Nicco and Destiny.
This book starts at Nicco and Destiny’s wedding. The bartender Enzo sees the maid of honor and immediately is attracted to her. Candi’s heart is taken by Dom. Dom passed away years ago but he took her heart with him. Enzo and Candi run into eachother on a photoshoot and become friendly. They are perfect for eachother. I love them as a couple. Both are attracted to eachother but they both have baggage. Lots of baggage in their own way. Their lives are about to come to a crossroad but will they be able to overcome everything ? There’s definitely a part of the book when I said “Oh My Goodness….no way!”
Such a good read. Glad I got the chance to read this one.

I was looking forward to reading this book after reading the first in the series. This book was just as good as the first and I really enjoyed the chemistry between the characters. It was instant and believable. They are the kind of characters that you can really get behind and want to find a way to happiness.
This author really knows how to write a story that builds as the book goes on. It is a slower pace than a lot of books but I think that helps to add to the story. It allows you to get to know the characters more and become invested in their story. I am looking forward to what this author produces next and I will definitely be reading it.

This book is book two of the series. It can be read as a standalone but honestly book one was just as good so you should definitely read both.

While Austin tries to heal his heart in Chicago, he meets Casey. She is quite literally everything he’s not, but maybe that’s what makes her perfect. A promotion lands in Austin’s lap but now he has to figure out what to do – dream job or dream girl? What’s a man to do?

I really enjoyed this book. I like sports romances and this one hit it out of the park. Definitely recommend!

Ted Bennett just spent 5 years in prison. He’s paroled now and has a year on parole. He is headed home and he is going to keep his head down and stay out of trouble. What he doesn’t expect is to run into Robyn. Robyn makes him feel things he hasn’t felt in so long. But he’s scared. It’s been a long time and Robyn put her life on hold. Can they pick up where they left off?

I enjoyed this book! The chemistry between Ted and Robyn was great and going through the story as they tried to overcome the past was a roller coaster ride. I highly recommend!

Hot for Teacher - Shakespeare Made Us Fall in LoveHot for Teacher – Shakespeare Made Us Fall in Love by Felicia Carparelli
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This story was ok. I believe the premise of the book was decent. Take on forbidden love. Adult student and teacher. Real life Romeo and Juliet reference. However, I found Jim to be a bit pushy. Often times Juliet told him no and he pushed her until he got a yes. Then turn around and claimed he loved her after two weeks of dating. Then gave her an ultimatum about marriage when he couldn’t even be man enough and honest with her about things going on on his life. The on the flip side Juliet wasn’t being honest with him about things going on in her life either and by the end of the story I’m scratching my head like how is this relationship going to work. The story is interesting enough to finish. It’s not awful but it’s not great either.

James and Juliet’s story was a cute one and a big reminder about love in least expected places. Juliet pulls at your heartstrings bc shes already loved and lost yet she still has an open heart to it. James is trying to explore new horizons. Both are parents, professionals, and have experienced a lot within life. There is a lot of push and pull with romance and humor mixed in. Opposites attract in this story and it was a fun read.

Hot for Teacher: Shakespeare Made Us Fall in Love

I’m at an age where I see a lot of the main characters as my kids and every now and again I stumble on one with a contemporary which was exactly what I got with this book.

Juliet is a little older than me but I could definitely relate to a point about love. I have said that if I were to find myself single I would definitely be cautious about finding someone new.

Jim went through a self discovery phase after he lost his wife and I feel like each experience only made him feel as empty if not emptier than before.

I’m glad I got the opportunity to read this book, hope to read by her in the future.

First of all who doesn’t love a great Christmas story? I know I sure do so when I saw the beautiful cover of this amazing story I knew right away I had to read it. This Christmas story took place after the pandemic, but there are still a lot of feel good moments and it was personally the first book I’ve read that is post pandemic but overall this sorry was simply amazing, and charming. The characters were very well developed, the plot was just perfect, and the author does an amazing job with descriptions for us to be able to visualize their masterpiece. So if you’re ready for the holiday spirit and need a good Christmas story make sure to pick this one up today.

Carina just wants a big family Christmas this year! She spent the last few years with a lot of loss, sadness, and then Covid. She is struggling and feeling lonely until she starts a friendship with Max. She met Max in a grief group, but she thinks of him as an adult child. He invites her to his cabin that he has been fixing up with his late wife to spend the holidays. She is debating but no one in her family seems to want to make the effort for the holidays so she decides to get out of town to Crossbow and a little cabin in the woods. She is hoping for an adventure and a tiny stray kitten showing up on her doorstep is the first. I wasn’t sure about a post Covid book but it was well written and not dwelling on the pandemic. The characters were very relatable and the cabin sounds beautiful set in the woods outside of a quaint small town during the holidays! This was a wonderful read as we get closer to the holiday season!
