Great continuation of the series, I am so hooked. This book had me hooked from the first page and kept me fully engrossed throughout the entire time reading it. There’s so much emotion and some unexpected plot twists, some I didn’t see coming. This was so good; I can’t wait to see what comes next in this series and from this author!

Veronica is a top-rated cyber security tech for a financial company. A suspicious fire, a planted bug on a server, two break-ins on the same night, Veronica goes on the run to try to find who is behind the data breach. A quick-paced, romantic thriller; I thoroughly enjoyed it.

This book is written in dual POV, but I did not find it hard to follow at all. The characters had such great chemistry and their playful banter really makes them relatable. The author knocked it out of the park with this one. I plan to binge read her other books now. Definitely a must read.

This is an amazingly written enemies to lovers trope. I was constantly turning the pages to see what was going to happen next. The hate to hate to maybe like to love is beyond what I was expecting. There are twists and turns that I didn’t see coming but were everything to the story line. The growth of the characters felt organic and not rushed or dragged out. The flow of the book was well done. It didn’t feel like certain scenes carried on or others were rushed. It was a very steady fast pace. Well, not super fast, I just read fast. This book made it hard to put down and I found myself getting agitated at anyone who interrupted me reading. This is how you know it is a good book. I highly recommend reading this if you just want to escape for a few and forget about your day to day.

This is a book by an author that I never hesitate to pick up. An author that I have enjoyed reading from the first book I picked up. This is the first book in this series and what a great start it is. I can’t wait to see what happens in the second book. This is a well written story about a steamy stranger and sex on the beach. A story where there is forbidden love and opposite attraction. I enjoyed these characters. They are strong, connectable and had me coming back for more. There is great growth as well as chemistry throughout the story as well. A fast paced story that you need to find out what happens next. This is a fast paced, engaging story that is easy and entertaining as well. This is a great book which has a little bit of everything in it. Don’t miss out on this one. I highly recommend this book.

This made me think of an adult version of Cinderella. Bridget meets Fyn on his private beach. The fun and adventure starts there. She doesn’t realize he’s a Prince. I fell in love with this story because they both had to overcome so many challenges. The King and Queen were stuck on tradition and, quite frankly, were snobs. Not my favorite, but definitely antagonistic characters. I loved the storyline and how it flowed. This author does such a fabulous job with her stories that you just feel like you are there watching it. I can’t wait to read book 2.

I really enjoyed this sweet, HEA from Cat Treadgold. JJ is a country music star who is under strict doctor’s order not to utter a word in order to heal so he heads to the woods, away from society, to heal and figure some things out. Ali is trying to figure out if her twin is still alive and gets caught in the woods during a storm and has to seek shelter in JJ’s cabin. Here’s the kicker…Ali has no idea who JJ is and he can’t speak so they ride out the storm together. But alas, they are from two different worlds and eventually reality hits and they have to return to them…but can they keep their flame alive? I really enjoyed Treadgold’s writing; however, there were times where it was a little slow and I wished the story would just move along. There are many twists and turns in The Silent Woodsman so there’s really something for every romance lover. I can’t wait to see what Treadgold has in store for the second book in the Olympic Peninsula series.

4.5 stars Royally Complicated is a stand-alone forbidden romance tale with a bad boy. Who doesn’t love a bad boy story. The book is a really good read however a little cliché. But Gwyn and Christy do throw in a little turmoil and a few tough emotions that gives the story just that bit more making it a must read. It is fun and sexy and sweet and spicy, and the writing draws you in. The chemistry between Bridget and Fyn is off the charts. When she meets Fyn, the sparks fly. One night is all they thought they would have. It is full of complications, cheating, betrayal, royal duty, some unscrupulous family, prince charming, a kingdom in turmoil, misunderstandings and foes that you may or may not see coming. Royally Complicated is just that and is an emotional read, filled with chaos and drama, action and heart pounding moments and some much-needed humour and love. This steamy read will leave you with all the feels. There are a few of the characters that you will love to hate and hate to love and royal or not you will want to smack them. Overall, the book was a really good read and this writing duo make a good team. I look forward to reading second book in the series.

Back to the 80’s by S.E. Reichert and Kerrie Flanagan- 5 out of 5 stars
So nostalgic! Very easy to read and it will get you stuck in your feelings. The authors did a great job with this fun book. I would consider this to be a rom-com type book. I recommend reading this book, you will not regret it.

I enjoyed this book it was a very easy quick read, and I was drawn in immediately. A sweet, simple, so what steamy, and romantic story though not without its problems thrown into the mix. I love a good quick read but definitely wouldn’t have minded it to be a bit longer. This is the first book I’ve read from this author but I would gladly read more by her.

And the delicious way the water trickled down over his washboard abs and the V thingy.
And the fact that I’m on the trip that was supposed to be my honeymoon until I caught the bastard cheating.
Yeah, I’m going to blame it on all that.
Because reckless behavior is so not usually me.
But surfer god Fyn is a breath of fresh air I so badly need.
A break from reality of the world around me.
One he seems to need, too.
It’s a single wild moment in my otherwise structured life that seems to be crumbling.
A perfect snapshot in time…
Until the royal guard shows up looking for him.
Turns out the king of the waves is actually a prince.
A real one next in line for the throne.
And I just banged him on the sand.
People say a one-night stand can be good for you, especially after a break-up.
I’m starting to question that advice.
Because finding my prince is only the beginning…
Things are about to get royally complicated.
Royally Complicated is a royal romance from USA Today Bestselling Authors Gwyn McNamee and Christy Anderson with a bad boy prince and good girl commoner, forbidden love, opposites attract, intrigue, deception, and tons of steam that will leave you wanting your own prince.
Gwyn McNamee is an attorney, writer, wife, and mother (to one human baby and one fur baby). Originally from the Midwest, Gwyn relocated to her husband’s home town of Las Vegas in 2015 and is enjoying her respite from the cold and snow. Gwyn loves to write stories with a bit of suspense and action mingled with romance and heat. When she isn’t either writing or voraciously devouring any books she can get her hands on, Gwyn is busy adding to her tattoo collection, golfing, and stirring up trouble with her perfect mix of sweetness and sarcasm (usually while wearing heels).
Christy Anderson
Writing with a whole lot of sarcasm and humor, mixed with a bit of Southern charm, Christy Anderson ain’t no sweet tea kinda storyteller. As an author of romance, Christy believes it doesn’t always have to be hearts and flowers; sometimes, it is dark and twisted, but romance nonetheless. She mixes terror, revenge, and a sliver of love and hope into stories about family, friends, struggles, blurred lines, and happily-ever-afters. Christy lives in the beautiful mountains of Eastern Tennessee with her husband and 152 cats (not really, but close), where she enjoys writing one twist at a time.

Bernadette Marie is a first time author for me, but I was absolutely amazed by her writing. The characters she introduces in Liz’s Road Trip were interesting, unique, believable, and realistic. I felt that Liz was the most true to life (even if she annoyed me slightly with her selfishness). Liz had so much emotional baggage to deal with throughout the story and I did not envy her position at all. The element of romance between Liz and Mark was sweet, but also up and down, at least in Liz’s mind. I found this book not only filled with great characters, but an amazing storyline as well. Death is inevitable and dealing with the death of a loved one is often difficult to negotiate. I think Bernadette Marie did a stunning job bringing Liz’s emotions to life. This was one of my favorite reads so far this year and I look forward to reading more from this author.

This book is a trip and a half. The story starts out with the FMC and MMC absolutely hating each other, and then they get stuck in a blizzard together, and become separated for 5 years. There is a miscommunication trope in it, and they’re reunited again, but hating each other, again. There’s a HUGE plot twist thrown into the book, and honestly I spent a good 6 chapters just sobbing over everything. It’s a fantastic book, and I highly recommend. Guaranteed HEA.

Jude has lived on the streets for years but the Hawkes took him under their wings, helping him through a troubled time. Now he’s considered a Hawke but that’s the trouble, Jude loves Angelina, a true Hawk family member. The fact that Jude lived on the streets has him keeping things to himself. But what he might really need is to face those things head on. Will anyone be there for him? The twists and turns that come up during the story kept me reading well into the night. As with the other Hawke series, this book was well written with great characters and world building.

Five years after Issac had an amazing weekend with Jack in Chicago, Jack shows up in New Orleans in need of protection. When she meets Issac again, he is surprised to see the little girl that is with Jack who has a strong resemblance to both Issac and Jack. What will it mean to have this beautiful woman who Issac has never forgotten in his life again. What will Issac need to do to keep Jack and their daughter safe? The prequel where Jack and Issac (known to her as Nolan) is a must read so you have some back story.

I absolutely loved this book! Watching the dynamic of the main characters from the start of the book until the end. I could not put it down as I just needed to know what was next. The story is filled with angst and romance as two people go from enemies to friends to enemies to lovers.
Ava is always treated with cruelty from Matthias King. She doesn’t understand why when she gets along so well with his brother, Theo. A small two day fluke happens one winter storm weekend. Ava and Matthias find a bubble of bliss with one another. Without a goodbye the duo don’t meet up again until five years later. No surprise Matthias is back to his cruel treatment towards Ava.

I enjoyed this romance. It has elements of a Suspense Thriller too which makes it different to a boy meets girl and falls in love romance. The author has the perfect mix of chemistry, attraction and danger which makes this a fast paced gripping read. It is a short read which means I read it in one sitting but it isn’t missing anything and feels like a complete read where as some shorter books can feel unfinished, however this one felt completely finished. Veronica works for IT security for a financial company. She loves her job and everything runs smoothly until the day she notices something is very wrong with one of the hard drive. As she starts to investigate she unknowingly paints a target on her back and now her well being isn’t safe. Cera is Veronica’s best friend and when she hears that Veronica is in danger she asks her brother Angus to protect her. Angus is a firefighter and he is focused on his career, the last thing he wants to do is play bodyguard to his sisters friend and definstely isn’t in the market for a relationship. But as they spend time together the chemistry between them increases and becomes as hot as the fires Angus has to fight. Can Angus protect Veronica from the danger that is after her? This book is full of chemistry and twists and turns that I did not see happening.
This was a very enjoyable, well written book. I enjoyed the character of Derek and thought that he was very well written. He seemed to have it all but yet when I was reading it I did not find him to be arrogant or someone that I had a hard time reading about. Melinda was a fantastic person to play off of Derek’s character. She was definitely spunky. I loved watching both their work and professional relationship develop. It seemed to do so very naturally and it did not seem forced or contrived. I loved how the two of them bonded together to rise above their challenges and how there were many rocky points. I definitely recommend this story. It was one that was easy to read and well written.

Bluestone County has become one of my favorite series to read recently. This book definitely functions as a standalone, but I recommend reading it with the other books in the series because they are all fantastic and it will give you a good feel for all of the characters and the small town. This book is Summer’s turn. Summer has returned home to reclaim her grandfather’s bar – the one that she has always dreamed of owning and running. However, she finds out that an old friend has bought it and is running it. Teddy bought the bar and he is a retired Navy Seal, he thought he could truly handle anything – but then he met Summer. I had gotten a feel for the characters of Teddy and Summer in some of the other books I have read in the Bluestone Series, so I was really looking forward to reading this one. I loved the dynamic between Teddy and Summer. I felt that they were very well written and that their chemistry built as the story went on. I loved how Teddy had a very soft spot for Summer that went way back and that he really looked out for her. I also felt that their dialogue was very well written. I definitely recommend reading this book and I hope that there is more to come from Bluestone County soon!

This story is short, sweet, and straight to the point. This is my first read by Adina D. Grey and it was a good read. I did however leave the story wanting more. more story, more time, more relationship building. At just under 100 pages you will have no problems reading this in one sitting. enjoyable, just wishing there was MORE.

Melinda is a sharp, quick witted woman who meets a savvy buisness man who has everything he wants. Despite their mutual attraction there’s a hitch…he’s her new boss. The two team up and become an amazing duo but the attraction won’t be ignored. While this is a smaller book the author has amazing narrative that keeps the reader very engaged. This was a great book!

I really enjoyed this book! Cruel King has a lot going on but shows character growth that I love. The author does a beautiful job with this story. A modern day Pride and Prejudice or Beauty and the Beast type story. Ava the daughter of the help. Matthias is living on his high horse with a silver spoon in his mouth. In his eyes she doesn’t belong anywhere near his family, let alone his little brother’s best friend. Yet he can’t take his eyes off of her. So he treats her badly to keep her away. Ava doesn’t understand what she ever did to him. Until she realizes he treats her that way because he feels shes beneath him. So what happens when they get snowed in together? What happens when they meet again 5 years later? The chemistry between these two is off the charts, but can they get past the material things? What about his brother? Matthias has a lot to process and decide on what to do about it. The author navigates that beautifully. I thoroughly enjoy the growth the author shows between both characters. I look forward to reading more books, hopefully about these characters, in the future. I know I’ve read books by this author in the past and I’ve never not enjoyed them. Now it’s your turn to discover if this author will be added to your favorites list.

This was a great heartfelt read. It was hard to put this book down after I started it.
This book follows the Story of Summer and Teddy. Summer is bubbly and not one to back down from a challenge. Especially when it comes to her childhood friend Teddy. Teddy is grumpy and stubborn as a mule. As a retired Navy Seal, it’s not that surprising that he is not overly optimistic anymore.
People change a lot within five years. The person that they once knew each other as seems like a distant memory now. When Summer returns to her hometown unexpectedly and without any notice, she gets a major surprise. When she returns and finds that the one thing she was hoping to come home to was taken by none other than Teddy, she was not happy. Teddy does not let much get him riled up but Summer has always had that ability.
What happens when Summer returns to find so many changes? Will she be able to befriend Teddy again or will they be strangers with history? What happens when the reason Summer actually came home comes up? Can you help someone heal while being broken yourself?
Read this book to find out if these two are destined to be enemies or friends.

Reticent Hawke: A Billionaire Reverse Age Gap Best Friend’s Older Sister Forbidden Romance (The Hawke Family Second Generation Book 2)
I am 100% obsessed with the Hawke family and getting to know the second generation after reading their parents stories and in some cases their birth makes me feel a little more connected to them.
This one made me feel all of the emotions. I laughed and cried. Was happy and then absolutely heartbroken sometimes all on the same chapter though it felt like same page.
Angelina’s cafe is a success life is pretty good until Alessandra started acting weird and Angie had to go to Allie’s best friend, everything changed then for all of them.
I fell in love with this family from the moment I met them seven years ago and I hope I’m still reading about them in another seven years. I can’t seem to be able to get enough of the Hawke family.
Absolutely must read this book and series. There is so many connections to the previous books that you should start at the beginning and work you way through.

I am new to this whole enemies-to-lover genre but this one became a good one because Ava and Matthies want to hate each but destiny will always find a way. One thing that I did not like about this book is that Matthies took long enough to realize that he wants Ava but he can’t come to his sense. Ava on the other hand hides it and tries to at least move forward. But overall the author did an amazing job with Ava and Matthies, showing who they are.

Can you imagine finding out the guy you spent two days in a cabin with, (then start having feelings for) is a famous country star. That’s what happens in this story. This is my first time reading this author Cat Treadgold. She has created a wonderful story world that takes place in the 90s ( the best times lol). Capturing what it was like back then in great detail.(it’s crazy how far tech has come within the 20ish years). This is a slowish pace book, but it’s still a fantastic read, with passion, suspense, fame, and jealousy just to name a few. I can’t wait to read Ali’s twin brother Liam’s story(The Guardsman). I hope we get to see more of these characters. Also the mom ughhhh.

Back to the 80s is a fun, nostalgic rom-com. If you grew up in the 80s or love the past, this is a fun reminder of what was great then. Blaine has inherited her mom’s shop, a novelty shop showing love for all things 1980s. Eric is a local developer who plans to demolish her shop to build a brewery. Can Blaine convince Eric that her shop is worth saving? This is a sweet rom-com that has me wanting to dive into some great 80s films. The characters of Blaine and Eric are good contrasts that help develop from enemies to something much better. I like Blaine because she has strong opinions and is independent. She is there to fight for the business that she loves and isn’t mooning over Eric. There are no twists and turns or anything outrageous, but due to the nostalgic tone, I enjoyed the book. I will be looking for more from this author in the future.

Reichert and Kerrie Flanagan – Review by Sheri Schrader
Back to the 80’s by S. E. Reichert and Kerrie Flanagan. This book is a fun little Rom-Com about Blaine the owner of the shop Back to the 80’s and Eric a developer that wants to develop the mall where her store is located. This is a story with a cute plot and sweet characters. Blaine convinces Eric to give her 30 days to show him how awesome the 80’s are and takes on a fun, nostalgic little ride. I really enjoyed all the 80’s references from my childhood. Blaine and Eric have wonderful chemistry. They are both lovely characters and you know reading the story that they won’t be able to resist falling in love. This is a quick and fun read. You won’t be able to resist the nostalgia and the cuteness.

Reichert and Kerrie Flanagan – Review by La Toya Lewis
This romance focuses on the characters Melinda and Derek and although it’s short, it’s an easy and enjoyable read. There’s the billionaire element with Derek, office romance, and enemies to lovers as they get off on the wrong foot.
As they work together and overcome challenges, they begin to see each other differently and in this show some character development. The way this was written made the transition natural and believable. I also enjoyed the descriptive language used by the author, painting a vivid picture of the scenes and characters. The chemistry between the characters was built well with the slow burn romance which work well for both characters.
I loved the characters and enjoyed the author’s writing style so I hope to read more from this author soon!
