My rating: 5 of 5 stars

A great read. The characters completely captured me from start to finish. They were so well written and they each bring something different to the overall storyline. Each character is complex and relatable, so easy to connect with. I simply sank into the story and was sad it ended all too quickly for me. But it’s definitely a five star book in my opinion and worth the download. It’s well written and paced nicely. I highly recommend it!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Wow this story had me completely drawn in and I definitely blocked out the outside world in my need to finish it in one sitting. The characters are so well written I tended to forget I was reading a story. They were so easy to connect with and they draw you into their story in a way that it’s hard to leave them when the end of the story comes but you love your time with them all the same. It’s well written and paced nicely never feeling rushed or lacking. I’d give it more stars if I could but five will have to do! Go one click it trust me you won’t regret it! Highly recommended!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Once again this author makes me want to stay in the story world she created! Hailey and Trey stole a piece of my heart and I’m pretty sure it’s lost forever, I wouldn’t want it any other way. They each brought this story to life in different ways and them together is just an all around good time. These can be read in any order but I honestly feel like in the written order is best for a better overall storyline experience. The characters are complex and relatable, they have also become some of my top favorites. This book and this author are 5 stars all the way and highly recommended!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This story was really enjoyable. The back and forth with Colton and Zenni was fun and sometimes really meaningful. Each one of them has strong reasons for want they want and neither one is afraid to give their all. It’s a shorter read but in no way did that take away from the overall storyline or the ability to connect with both story and characters. I read it in one sitting and enjoyed my time in this author’s story. It’s well written with strong and relatable characters. I could easily read this one over and over, still enjoying it. Five big stars and highly recommended!

Deacon might just be one of my favorite male main characters so far this year. Right from page one I was completely hooked and knew I was in for a great read. Olivia is also an amazing character. Each one has been through so much and I loved their second Chance story. This book is filled with steam, tough but well written situations, mystery and drama. The friendships in this book are strong and will definitely grab your heart. It’s got everything you need in a second Chance type story! It’s definitely one that I’m going to remember.

Another fantastic addition to this very addicting series. Luc and Summer will always have a piece of my heart. The world this author has created is one that I happily get lost in with each new book.

Get ready for all the feels! From page one I was excited to read Micheal and Yolanda’s story. I’ve read some others in this series and found I easily read them as a standalone but will be reading them all. This may be my top pick in this series but it’s a hard choice for sure. But this one just pulled at my heart a different way is the only way I can describe it. These two brought me so deep into their story and world that I simply didn’t want to leave them. I love a great second Chance romance story and that’s exactly what this author brought. It’s well written with characters that just draw you in and can easily connect with. So excited for more from this author! Five stars and highly recommended!

This book may have set me back into my paranormal romance reading again! I found myself having a hard time really sinking into them recently but I can honestly say that funk might be over.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is my first book from this author and I’ll definitely look for more. Now honestly I did find I had a bit of a tough time really sinking into Sophie and Gil’s story. I just didn’t feel that strong pull. But if given the chance I think you’ll find it’s a good story even if it’s a bit slow on the start. I definitely laughed and did enjoy the storyline. Just give it a chance it does get better not that the beginning is bad it just felt a little slower in my view. I am definitely excited to see what other books this author has to offer. Four stars and definitely recommended!

This book definitely pulled me in immediately and I simply couldn’t put it down. I may have stayed up later than planned just so I could finish but it was so worth it. This author knows how to keep a readers completely captured. The characters are complex and relatable, I felt a connection easily. I found myself trying to both read faster to know what happens and wanting to savor this story I was drawn into. The friendship displayed in this story is definitely one that reminds me of my own experiences in the real world maybe not exactly but the bond is the same. If I could read this book for the first time again I definitely would but as I can’t I’ll just add it to my read again list.

I had so many mixed emotions with this story. I actually had started it and found myself just feeling overwhelmed and stopped. Ok now this isn’t a bashing review just hang with me real quick. This story had so much going on and in the beginning it seemed just super rushed and a jumble of stuff going on. You may feel the same but please listen to this next part! Keep reading because this author is about to blow you away with a story you can’t miss. Gem is a character that absolutely stole my whole heart with her kick butt attitude and her loyalty to those important to her. This book definitely has some difficult subjects but the author puts a lot of feeling into them. Connecting with the characters was so easy. Again please if you feel it’s rushed and a lot going on push on it’s so very worth it! If I could give more than five stars I would! Highly recommended!
