DATING THE INTERN by Natalina Reis – Review by Beverly Finnie

Dating the InternDating the Intern by Natalina Reis
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Natalina Reis writes in a way she has you feeling for her characters. Her novel Dating the Intern appealed to me in ways I enjoyed, but also brought up memories from a painful past. Don’t let that deter you though, just keep in mind it could be a trigger warning that’s all.
Li Qiang is such a sweet and selfless character who would do anything for his boss, Ivory Tower, since he’s been crushing on her for a long time. A character I grew to love and rooted for as I got deeper into the novel.
Ivory on the other hand drove me crazy, but I feel like that was more on a personal level vs how the character was written. I’m Ivory through and through. I may not be a business owner but that’s the kind of abuse I suffered in my past from my father, which makes it hard to accept love today.
Though a novel about a fictional romance, it made me take a deeper look at myself and how I’ve overcome the same obstacles in my life. I know this review sounds really sad & depressing but it’s not meant to be that way. It’s meant to just describe how Natalina’s novel impacted me emotionally. It’s not very often I get that emotionally invested in a work of fiction, but in the end I LOVED IT!!! If a writer can have you connect to their story in such a way you evaluate how you handled things, doesn’t that make them a GREAT writer.
Was the story a trigger for me, slightly but I’m glad I read it then reflected upon my life. If you’re looking for a story to emotionally impact you in such a way you evaluate life, TRUST ME when I say you NEED to read Dating the Intern by Natalina Reis!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

First and foremost, this is the 4th book in the series but, you do not have to read the others to enjoy it. This was my first read by Renee Regent and I enjoyed it! It will also not be my last, it has intrigued me into wanting to read the others in the series. There was also so many emotions that I went through along with the characters. The author does a great job of pulling you in and becoming invested in the characters. This is sometimes hard to do but Renee Regent does a good job with how they present them.

The Don by Hazel Storm is a MUST READ! Vanessa is seriously a sweet soul who loves to do facials and hairstyles for older women at the hair salon.

Due to this, Vanessa runs into three Gods who are sexy as all get out from the descriptions given to us by her. With all the mischief they get into with meeting this one woman, it makes it a great read! Please check this series out! 🙂

Repair by Trish Williford is part of K. Bromberg’s Everyday Heroes World. I have read many new-to-me authors because of this world.

Charlie has returned to Sunnyville after a messy break-up with her fiance in Denver. Charlie reconnects with the one person who made her leave their hometown, Tank Easton – your brother’s best friend. Can Tank prove to have changed and can Charlie give him a second chance at her heart?

Great writing by Trish and these characters were enjoyable additions to Sunnyville. I will be checking out other books by Trish Williford.

If anyone knows me, they know I’m a SUCKER for any kind of dark, angst-y, moody, sexy bad boy romance. Especially if they are anything like Ripper! This is my first book from Tee Smith and y’all. 👀. This book is *chefs kiss*. It hits all those sweet spots for me. A heroine with secrets- and a smoking hot bad boy who you KNOW has his own secrets and a past of his own just from his description alone! Was I in love with every aspect of their romance? No! And I’m pretty sure we aren’t supposed to be! I can’t wait for the next one and y’all should check it out too! Onto the next! 💖

This is a fully loaded Contemporary Romance. I recommend reading the full series, you’ll enjoy them all.
Dahlia Perez is a single mom of a seven year old son. She is working herself up the work ladder, and is doing her best to prove she can. Her divorce was not in her plans and neither was losing her best Friend Levi. Dahlia and Levi have known each other since they were very young. They did everything together, trusted each other and were always there for each other. That is until the day they weren’t. Now working together was not what Dahlia needed or wanted. Levi on the other hand wants to be heard. Can these two work together and complete the job set before them?
Renee Regent has written this contemporary love story. She describes her characters flawlessly. So much so you feel like you have met them before. I love the strength Dahlia shows, she does not let things stand In her way. Not even a man, gorgeous and all can stop her from completing her task. This was a non-stop page turner. I am looking forward to reading more from this author. Well Done Renee Regent! Well Done!

So this is the second book in the series and I thoroughly enjoyed the first one so I was ready to head into this one. Ready I was. Forbidden romance always hits a little different for me and I love itttt. Honestly one of my favourite tropes. This book didn’t disappoint, don’t want to say too much because spoilers. Still loved Tasha and Levi and their relationship. If you want a romance between a vampire and wolf then this is the book for you!

Ride For Me (North Shore Crew Series, Book 1)Ride For Me by Vi Summers
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Ride for Me by Vi Summers was a good book. It was fast paced following the crew while focusing on Gage and Lil. It is very well written and has great detail, however, personally I find this writing style harder to read. I normally look for books with a lot of dialogue AND descriptive detail that make you pause to think of the place. But there are so many people who will love the writing style of this book because it flows really well, honestly this is the style that I read while trying to get back into reading.

Despite not having my preferred style of writing, this story has a beautiful plot! Gage and Lil give us heart attack after heart attack trying to force themselves apart. But they are just so drawn to each other that we keep screaming at them to finally get over themselves! AHH It was a wonderfully thought-out plot making me want to throw my kindle at the wall multiple times!!

I walk into the room and their he is the past that I left behind and did not look back, but I have always had a soft spot for him but will he feel the same way.

Dahlia is living life but when a blast from her past walks in and they have to work together on a project can she be professional or will the anger from her past make it impossible to work, concentrate or even keep her heart in check.

Levi has never really got over her, she was his everything but he let her down and was not there when she needed him the most, what will happen when they have to put their difference behind them and work on this project. Can his heart survive?

I loved this story, it grabbed from the first words this couple is a lovely banter and chemistry which jumps off the page. I thought that the character of Dahlia was such a strong female character that knew who she was and was not willing to comprise her values. The character of Levi was a perfect character to enhance both characters.

This is the first book I have read by this author and I can’t wait to read other books in this series and by this author.

Charlie had it all her career as a trauma nurse and a handsome fiancé, with he wedding not far away life is good, but that all comes crashing down when a knock on the door and in walks her fiancé mistress but there is more when she announces she is pregnant.

Charlie is devastated and feels cheated in both her life and her career, but she then needs to find somewhere to re-evaluate her life and decided to go back to her roots the only problem is she convinced herself she would never go back but things change.

Tank is going about his busy when in she walks, the girl who left eight years ago but there was always a chemistry between them the only problem she was out of bounds being his best friends sister, but now they are older maybe there is a chance that they can become friends again.

I loved this story, this is the first book I have read by this author and the well developed characters and tense from the first word was thrilling and engaging with each chapter. It was great to see both of the main characters grow through the book and see each other through different eyes. This was a brilliant love story and I was willing these two characters together in the end.

I can’t wait to read more stories by this wonderful author.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was such a sweet story of two people whom never planned to fall in love, or well meet and most certainly did. The chemistry more than sizzled, and when they were together it was as if it was truly meant to be, even if neither of them knew it right away.

Brody meets Willabelle one night thinking she is a intruder. After the whole mess got solved they found well there may be more attraction under the skin than meets the eye at first glance. They begin thru their times together that this could possibly be the real thing Were their hearts caught in more than just an mutual attraction? To be together, would not be easy From the lives or the drama they came from, or the heart ache even. They would have to work through and really fight for what they have going. The question is though would they stay together despite even if the odds are against them?

The story was so sweet and a lot of heart. Falling in love with Willabelle and Brody was so easy to do. They both were likeable characters even if one was basically the girl next door, and the other was the town bad boy. Both brought a lot of chemistry and I was hoping for a happy ending for them both!

The author bought two beautiful souls for a quick but but full happy feelings love story. I really felt a bond with the characters, and it was a nice read I would say. I really enjoyed the author’s writing. I read through quickly, as I wanted to see how the turn of events would affect everything and everyone. I enjoyed this book very much and look forward to read more by this author in the future!

Ride For Me is book one in the North Shore Crew series by Vi Summers. I was excited to try this new to me author’s work, as I was taken in by the blurb of the story instantly. I eagerly devoured this story, falling for the main characters and loving the way the author had weaved their tale. This story will have your heart breaking, your imagination wandering, your inquisitiveness at a maximum, and your complete investment. The author has a way with words that kept me captivated and desperate for more. Suspenseful and passionate, this story was a whirlwind of emotional drama. Danger is ever present and I was kept guessing. Gage and Lil were a dynamic couple that mesmirised me and filled my heart with an overpowering sense of everything. I felt a lot while reading Ride For Me, and all of it so good. A stunning romantic suspense that was breathlessly hypnotic. 4 stars.

Dating the Intern by Natalina Reis is a romantic comedy for people of all ages that will make you laugh, cry, and believe in love all over again.

Ivory Tower is the successful owner and CEO of an online dating agency that takes delight in finding genuine love for its clientele. Except for herself, everyone. Ivory has a dilemma when a TV studio wants to feature her firm live on television; she can’t find the boyfriend she needs to avoid seeming like a fake. Ivory thinks her problem has been addressed when Li Qiang, her ten-years younger and toe-curlingly beautiful intern, agrees to masquerade as her lover, but getting out of this position will need more than the ideal algorithm. Li Qiang is both easy to love and difficult to forget, and the issue remains whether he truly loves her or is just playing his part.

I loved this story. I loved every page of it. Every chapter was exciting. This is the first book that I read by this author and I can’t wait to read more.

It takes some guts to run from nightmarish things that are in your life and that’s exactly what Gianna does. She was brave & strong & she was the reason that I liked this story so much!

Dating the Intern by Natalina Reis is a sweet rom com where there is an age gap between the characters. Not that that stops the fun. I really enjoy Natalina’s stories because they are fun, sassy, sexy and an easy read. They are easy to get lost in for an afternoon of peace and quite and a glass or two of your fav beverages. She needs an instant relationship to make her look good for her dating company and he is an intern and happy to help. What ensues will make you laugh, swoon and barrack for them.

I don’t understand how someone has transcend realms and have dream sex like that. That was very weird to me. But besides that strange occurrence throughout I really enjoyed this novel! And I think my favorite character so far in this book was Gorgonita. She was so awesome and I thought hilarious as well. I thoroughly enjoyed this sequel and can’t wait to read the next!

Forbidden Mate is the second book in The Shadow Chronicles series by C.R. Robertson and impresses just as much if not more than the first! Robertson continues to develop the characters personalities as they continue the fight against the mysterious creature targeting both Lycans and Vampires. They also are in the ultimate fight to save their relationship, which causes bad blood between the Lycans and the Vampires. The thing I both hated and loved the most was seeing the storyline between Tasha and Levi wrap up, because I had grown very fond of the two characters. I’m definitely looking forward to the next book in the series, there are a lot of unanswered questions I am curious to see answers to!
