Kamana Wanalaya for the Holidays: A Grinchy/Sunshine Holiday RomanceKamana Wanalaya for the Holidays: A Grinchy/Sunshine Holiday Romance by Susan Renee
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is my first read by Susan Renee. I enjoyed the easy read that not only kept me laughing, but also wanting to shake some sense into the characters at times. The characters are well developed and easy to like and relate to.

Tenley and Teagan are polar opposites when it comes to love. Tenley is jaded and prefers to view love from a practical standpoint, while Teagan views love as a glorious union to be desired and cherished. The fun begins when Teagan “the love guru”, challenges Tenley to a one week, all expenses paid, trip to Kamana Wanalaya Resort in Hawaii to change her mind on love.

Kamana Wanalaya was a fun read with some definite spice. It’s a slow burner, that keeps you hooked. When the plot picks up, it picks up quickly.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Connor is no longer the playboy motorcross rider of his past…he is now a skier in the Paralympics. After an accident took part of his leg, he has needed to find a new way to fulfill the need for speed that lives within him. He seems to be almost as good on the slopes as he was on the track. So, when his coach plans a training session around Christmas, Connor shows up ready to work.

Sienna is the “golden girl” of the slopes…and she is only missing a gold medal at the Paralympics. When her mother cancels her vacation in lieu of another training, Sienna is wondering if there is ever going to be more to life that her overbearing mother/manager. She is less than thrilled to have to spend her favorite holiday training…and even less thrilled when she sees who she has to spend it with.

These two, on paper, are as different as can be. But, when the begin to really get to know each other, they find out that they just might be after the same thing. However, when Sienna’s mother steps in and once again makes decisions for Sienna, will Sienna ever be allowed to be happy? Will Sienna be able to take her future into her own hands finally?

This was a good story about a woman wanting more for her future and a man who’s past shadows people’s thoughts about. Each of the characters is good for the other and helps them grow in their own ways. I enjoyed their banter and Connor’s ways of making Sienna feel special. Overall, a good book that I was able to devour in one sitting.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

What happens when a cynic and a hopeless romantic challenge one another? Well everything that happened in Kamana Wanalaya for the Holidays. The author wrote an interesting take on an enemies to lovers romance. One that was thoroughly enjoyable. It was happy, sad, funny, spicy, and everything in between.
Tenley has a podcast where she goes on about being practical in life. Especially in love, she doesn’t believe in it. A independent feminist at heart, would rather preach her feelings vs risk her heart. She despises the so-called “love guru.”
Teagan is the love guru and he issues a challenge. After Tenley laid into him and the resort he promoted in her podcast, he propositioned her. He said come to Hawaii for a week with all expenses paid and if he couldn’t show her how to love, he would donate $10k to her podcast and go on record pulling back some. What he didn’t tell her was it was a couples retreat week.
That’s where the author’s humor comes into play. Navigating these two who are complete opposites through a retreat and fake relationship. They take shots and constantly rib one another, but under it all they are both falling.
How do they handle it?
If you enjoy enemy to lovers romances this book is perfect. The author put together a well written story. It has you rooting for the main characters, it also has you wanting the backstory of the others. Which I’m going to be looking into! You should too!

Podcaster Tenley Shay says it like it is and calls out Love Guru Teagan. Tenley is a sceptic where love is concerned, while Teagan believes love is out there. Deciding to turn the tables on Tenley, Teagan offers an invite to a couple retreat where he makes a bet with her that she cannot refuse. Can two people who are polar opposites on love find something a little special while trying to fight their feelings?

Teagan is terrific, he oozes charisma which Tenley is determined ignore. Humorous with kind of a How to Lose A Guy in 10 Days feeling with a holiday twist. Very entertaining read.

Degrees of Innocence: Dark Mafia Romance (Cruel Deceptions Book 1) By Via Mari – Review by Kaylee Johnston

Degrees of Innocence (Prestian Series, #1)Degrees of Innocence by Via Mari
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Degrees of Innocence is the first book in the series and focused on the possessive and protective Chase and his obsession, Katarina. They meet when Kate is saving a man’s life and Chase steps in to help her. Their relationship builds as they spend more time together until Kate’s life is threatened. Chase protects her with everything he has as her life is threatened multiple times. They also have to deal with Kate’s insecurities about having a relationship with someone she works with.

I love that Kate and Chase work well together. They are an adorable couple and it’s amazing to watch them deal with the situations together. I also love how protective Chase is over Kate and how much he does to make her happy. They are an amazing couple and I love seeing the way they work together. It was also interesting to read about who is trying to attack her and what is the reasoning behind it.

The things I didn’t quite enjoy is there is a TON of telling in this story. I believe this is one of the author’s earlier books and I can absolutely tell she’s gotten a lot better at showing instead of telling, but it does make this story a bit tedious when it comes to reading it. Also, there’s a lot of obstacles that are introduced that aren’t necessarily resolved or explained the best.

Overall, while it was definitely an earlier book of the author’s, it was still enjoyable and fun to read. I am happy to have read it and gotten a chance to meet Chase and Kate. A bit of a warning though – the ending kind of stops a bit abruptly. There isn’t really a cliff hanger, it’s more like the story was cut in half and it wasn’t completely prepared to be that way. The story is finished in a satisfying way for the main plot points, but there’s a lot that is going to get finished in the second book.

This was the first book I have read by this author. While romance – especially steam romance are not my normal go to, I did enjoy this book. Teegan and Tenley find each other in this holiday romance. They are able to banter back and forth and set up some really spicy scenes! The Hawaiian resort and the holiday setting were a plus.

Degrees of Innocence (Prestian Series, #1)Degrees of Innocence by Via Mari
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Degrees of Innocence is the first book in the Cruel Deceptions series by Via Mari, I found it a little confusing as it was described as a “dark mafia” romance and there is only one small mention of the mafia at the very end of the book, the content didn’t really match the description. However, it did have a good premise and I am assuming that the mafia connection is more prominent in the later books in the series. When Kate is sent to Aruba to head a week long planning retreat for her company she is not expecting to meet a charismatic stranger who makes her feel things she has never felt before. When it turns out that this stranger is also the CEO of the company she is there to meet she is torn between love and her career. When she then becomes the victim of a series of attempts on her life she is confused as to whether the attacks are random or something more sinister. I thought this book was ok, it didn’t have the mafia romance element I was looking for, but it did have a strong female lead and a domineering sexy billionaire.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book was the perfect book to get me settled into the holidays! It got me out of my reading slump and I legitimately ugly laughed myself to tears in one scene. I’ll definitely be keeping an eye out for this author in the future.
Tenley has a popular podcast on Practical Adult Relationships. When she sarcastically mentions the Love Guru and his romantical couple’s retreat in her podcast he feels the spontaneous urge to issue her a challenge… If she can go to this couple’s retreat in Hawaii for a week and not fall in love with Love, he will donate a sum of money to her podcast and admit publicly that he was wrong.
I could not put this book down and laughed so hard at times that I had to stop and read tidbits to my partner. Tenley and Teagan are a blast to experience and I could have mentally stayed at that resort for so much longer than the book allowed.

This book kept me entertained from the beginning – making me laugh out loud many times as the exceptionally relatable main characters, Teagan and Tensley, made for a perfect romance balanced with equal parts sugar and spice this holiday season. I constantly felt like I was literally right there in this Hawaiian paradise, seeing, feeling, and experiencing each of the characters throughout the storyline. It was clearly the best read to get me out of my slump and I can’t wait to read more from Susan Renee!

The Coin Audiobook by Maria Elena Alonso-Sierra

 

The Coin (Audiobook) is a Romance Suspense that will have you on the edge of your seat as your listening. The narrator did a wonderful job of bringing the characters to life and keeping my attention throughout the story. This is a  fast paced story that is set in the French Rivera and is about  betrayal, love ,hatred that bring forth personal greatness (triumph). Gabriela’s life is a bit complicated and she finds herself at her favorite spot while there she finds herself in unfamiliar area and discovers a coin. Then there’s Richard who is an American Intelligence officer who is  not happy with his boss after he asked him to do a favor.  Turns out that favor  has him protecting Gabriela from a killer who will stop at nothing to keep his secret safe. I truly enjoyed listening to this story and highly recommend listening/reading to find out what happens next. Im definitely looking forward to seeing what other books this author has to offer.

I loved the opening sentence of this book!!! I had to stifle my laughter since I was reading this book during nap time. The reason why women don’t propose had me laughing like crazy and it was so relatable! It was refreshing for Tenley to be a romance skeptic podcaster who tells her listeners the blunt truth of love. This story was full of fun steamy moments and an engaging story! It kept me turning page after page. The Hawaii resort is something I would love to go to and could imagine myself there in the story!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was the first book I have read by this author, but it won’t be my last! This was such a whirlwind of action, adventure, and fantasy; I couldn’t put it down until I had finished the story. The author did a fantastic job of developing the characters and it was a journey watching how they evolved. This story was filled with vivid imagery in a whimsical fantasy world. This story takes you on a voyage of heartache and tragedy, followed by heart and humor. The author paces the story in a way that comes at you in waves. If you are looking for an offbeat story that covers adventure, heart, fantasy, magic, mystery, and well developed characters, this is a wonderful book to check out.

This holiday romance is not what you expect! It has such a great story line and is not your typical story. This was my first time reading this author and I really enjoyed their writing style. Tenley has hidden insecurities that most people don’t even know about. She has a podcast telling women not to waste your time with love. And then comes Teagan who believes in love with his whole heart even though he has never experienced it. He takes a chance and makes an offer Tenley can’t refuse. Will his belief be enough to show Tenley that true love does exist? Can he really break down her walls and reach her heart? This is definitely worth the read!

This was an enjoyable holiday romcom read that I would highly recommend. My first time reading from Susan Renee and definitely will not be my last. The romance genre is not my normal read, but the book summary caught my attention. It did not disappoint and I was hooked by the end of the first chapter.

The main characters have opposite views on what love is. Tenley has a practical view and gives advice on her podcast. Teagan is a Love Guru with an optimistic view. Is it true that opposites attract? A week in Hawaii is the ultimate test from the Love Guru to the Practical Podcaster. He pushes her buttons from the get go. She puts her foot down with her strong opinionated personality. Or does she? Pick up the book and follow the slow burn romance of these two opposites!

I really enjoyed this romance. Its a perfect Christmas read. It is an enemies to lovers romance however I wouldn’t class Sienna and Connor as enemies. Both of them have had a lot to deal with in their lives so it’s made them act and respond the way they do.

Both are Paralympics athletes but they came to it from different ways. Sienna was born that way and over the years she has pushed herself to be the best paralympic skier around. She is a very focused and driver woman who won’t let anyone stand in her way.
Conner on the other hand lost his leg due to an accident, so he has the additional trauma of learning to live with this disability. Conner also used to be a bad boy, partying hard and different women every night. But that all changed after his accident. He is now trying to rebuild his life and career.

Neither Conner or Sienna are looking for romance or distraction but that is what the find when they are on deserted ski resort with just their coach.
As the couple get to know each other you can feel the push and pull as they feel each other out and push each others buttons.

The question is can they drop the images they have of each other in their minds to see the real person in front of them or will their pasts hold them back from taking a risk?

I enjoyed reading this romance story. This is a new author for me which I enjoyed her writing style as well as her attention to details that made her story pop. This is a well written story that will bring you to tears in parts and make you laugh in others. I enjoyed how the characters were written with a lot of heart and emotion. They pulled me into their story from the start. I found them to be connectable and kept the story engaging. This is an entertaining story that is fast paced and easy to read. I enjoyed the growth and chemistry throughout the story. A story about falling for the wrong men and convincing her to give you a chance. I really enjoyed reading this book and what the characters brought to the story made it entertaining to read. I highly recommend this book.

A couple things I love about this book. Firstly, the title is adorable. The cover is sweet too. It is a shorter story but told perfectly and smoothly. My attention was drawn in and held due to the nature of the wonderful story.

Secondly I love the storyline..skiing competitively. I don’t run across this subject too often. While there isn’t a ton of skiing in here it has some of the drama that goes along with being in a competitive sport.

Lastly the characters are wildly different from each other. They both are hot to trot and have large reputations. She is the Golden Child of skiing and he is the former bad boy of motocross. I felt there would be a lot of time spent on why they are in the Paralympics but it was more about the feelings these two felt and their lovely romance.

Overall it is a wonderful holiday and winter themed story. It is a lighthearted fun book to read on a cold day.

Snow In Love is a great Christmas romance novella that I really enjoyed reading. It was my first time reading this author so was unsure what to expect from this book. I’m glad I took a chance on it as it’s definitely worth a read.
Although short at 100 pages, the author manages to pack a great deal of content in to make it an enjoyable read that keeps you engaged from beginning to end.
I really enjoyed reading about the 2 main characters Sienna and Connor. Being the golden princess of paralympic skiing you’d expect her to be a bit of a dive, but she’s far from it. Connor was the playboy motocross rider before his accident and is now a totally changed man in many ways and I really engaged with his character as he tried to make himself a better person.
I have to admit that I really wanted to slap Sienna’s mother and give her father a good shake. My heart broke for how Sienna was treated.
This is a great Christmas romance and I’d definitely recommend giving it a try.

OH MY GOSH THIS BOOK IS AMAZING!! I am obsessed with mafia romances and this book was so wonderfully written I cannot put into words just how amazing it was! It started off with the main characters meeting while giving CPR to a patron in the restaurant and then from there the chaos ensued! Literally the tones of the book were amazing, and I could not wait to read the book when I would be on my lunch breaks or finally at home where I could read until my eyes could not read anymore. There were lots of twists and turns in this book that LITERALLY had me on the edge of my seat wondering what was to happen next! I cannot wait to read the other books in the series once they come out and to tell my friends about this! I think I just found my new favorite author!!

This was just the holiday romance that I needed to read to really get in the spirit of Christmas! I love the fact that this was a book about characters that are in the Paralympics and that it really gave insight into their preparations/thoughts about the competition. I have not read a book that highlighted characters that both are overcoming body differences compared to others. I found myself devouring this book on my breaks and lunches when I was at work. I even found myself wondering what would happen next in the story and daydreaming of different scenarios. I cannot wait to read more books by this wonderful author!!

Taking a getaway, Gabriela visits La Marbriere France. While there she finds a 1945 French coin. That is where everything turns deadly. Richard, an Intelligence officer who was on vacation, is now helping to keep Gabriela safe while trying to catch the man who is threatening her life. This story is fast paced and is a rollercoaster of twists and turns. You will find yourself listening and getting caught up in this Romantic Suspense. The author has clearly written this series to entertain her readers. Her characters are just everyday people whose lives are turned upside down. I could not put this book down.

Snow in Love is a delightful holiday romance. This is a quick read but a well-thought-out story. Sienna and Connor are one of those couples you want to see succeed. The two meet on the slopes, but immediately I wanted it to develop into more. The characters contrast each other nicely. I always enjoy a holiday romance story, and this did not disappoint. I recommend this book if you need a quick getaway and to get in the holiday spirit. I look forward to checking out more from this author in the future.

Faultless Love by K.G Fletcher
5 out of 5 stars

This was my first book that I have ever read by K.G. Fletcher and she did not disappoint. I’ve been in a bit of a reading slump with romance, but I thought I’d take a shot with this story.
Growing up on a farm, and now running a farm myself I was a bit skeptical about the writing in this book and if everything would be accurate (a pet peeve of mine). But, K.G. Did not disappoint at all. She was accurate in a majority of her story, which makes me very happy as a reader and a farmer!
But, I should also focus on the romance in this story, which plays a big part in this book. You easily fell in love with every single character. They were just so easy going and lovable. Every single problem the two main love interests, Teddy and Robyn, they overcame together. They didn’t turn their backs on each other, but they worked together. If that doesn’t melt your heart, I don’t know what would!
I can’t wait for book 2!!

A fun holiday read that I finished in a day! The main characters are both athletes training for the Paralympics at a ski lodge that is closed for a remodel. Connor had to have a partial amputation after a motocross accident and Sienna was born with only a partial leg. They are thrown together to train over Christmas before the big race. Karl is coaching them on the slopes and they get to know each other in the lodge where they open up to each other and learn that they are more than their reputations. The lodge sounds like an amazing place to escape, spend a holiday, and cozy up around the fire. The characters are both struggling to find themselves and are not sure if they can trust each other but there are sparks from the first meeting. I will be looking at more from the author because I loved the quick read!

National Parks: An Angsty Second Chance Multicultural Romance by Laikyn Meng – Review by Ayla Phipps

/0 Comments/in /by

National ParksNational Parks by Laikyn Meng
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the first book that I have read by Laikyn Meng. I found the cover interesting and the synopsis original and decided to give it a try. With so little multicultural romances out there it was interesting to find one so unique. Phoebe is a nature photographer. Kenzo is her boyfriend that loves traveling with her for her job.
From the first page the author pulls at your heart strings for Phoebe. Growing up her family was very cold, and didn’t show affection, the first time she felt happy she also felt sad. She was between the ages of eight and eleven, unsure because she didn’t always get a birthday celebration every year. While at her aunt’s house in Texas for the summer she would watch a neighbor girl wait on the front porch for her grandfather, and after several minutes of hugging each other, they would leave. In those moments she realized for the first time that there were other types of families out there, loving families. Phoebe for the first time wanted something that she didn’t have. At the age of sixteen she left home for the first time finding her passion for photography and being told for the first time that it was more than just a hobby and was paid for her beautiful pictures. She was older now, loving her work and her boyfriend but the echoes of the happiness she once felt weren’t always enough. Kenzo never thought he would be the kind of guy to fall in love and settle down, until he suddenly was willing to do anything, even jump into the murky waters of the Everglades National Park in Florida to retrieve Phoebe’s first camera that had fallen in the water. With time all things change, “Only remember the Good Echoes.”
Will Phoebe and Kenzo find their ways back to each other? Are the echoes enough to keep the spark going? The world the author created in National Parks was beautiful, while the time jumps sometimes made it difficult to keep up with what was past and present the book flowed like the rivers of Nepal. I look forward to reading more of the amazing works by Laikyn Meng in the future.

This story sticks with you long after finishing it and tugs at every emotion you have. I was blown away by this book which was pleasantly surprising because I hadn’t heard of the author before. I am beyond happy I decided to pick this up and give them a chance. You will get to know Phoebe and Enzo throughout this second-chance romance. It’s not a walk in the park by any means, so please heed the trigger warning that the author kindly put up. Even through the heartbreak I was rooting for them, the author did a phenomenal job creating this world. I am watching this author intently now as I want to read anything they put out. You won’t be disappointed, please give this book a chance to engage you in an emotional rollercoaster!
