Grosse PointeGrosse Pointe by Natalie Barnes
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Grosse Pointe by Natalie Barnes is a fictional historical romance story and an enthralling and interesting read. It is set in the 1920’s the times of violence and drugs, trouble and gangsters, prohibition and the entanglement of the mafia of the times. Natalie has done a great job at weaving a tale that helps you get lost in their world. There is pain and suffering for our characters, but the price is not to high when you’re on the road to love.

Grosse Pointe by Natalie Barnes was a really good read! This is the first novel I’ve read from this author, and I wasn’t disappointed at all. This novel is set in the 1920s, and seemed to be a really good fictional novel that still portrays the history of that time period in the United States. It did take me a couple of chapters to get into the story, and get used to the Irish dialect and dialogue that is used throughout. Once I got used to it, the novel completely dragged me in, and I could hardly put it down. It was very well written with a great storyline. I can’t wait to read more from this author in the future!

What a sweet romance. A rookie football player gets into some trouble and needs to clean up his image. A volunteer opportunity is suggested, he meets a beautiful woman who is also volunteering. A chance meeting again at a charity dinner gives them more time to get to know each other better!
Sometimes, I’m in a mood for a quick story to read in a couple hours. This definitely hit the spot.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Rookie Moves: A Quick Snap Novella by Tarrah Anders is a short fun sports romance. I would recommend this book to fans of the genre who are in the mood for a quick read. The story follows Grant, a rookie NFL player who is becoming more known for his antics off the field than on it, when Grant bumps into Emily at one of the events he is attending to boost his reputation, neither are aware of who the other is. When their paths cross again, the couple decide to explore their feelings for each other, but other interested parties might get in their way. This is an enjoyable read and the characters are likeable, I would like to read other works by this author.

Playing Series 3 Book Set by Stephanie Queen – Review by Angela Hayes

Playing Series 3 Book SetPlaying Series 3 Book Set by Stephanie Queen
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

 

Playing Series 3 Book Set contains 3 books from the popular Playing series by Stephanie Queen. It is a New Adult football/sports romance series that focuses on the players in the Boston Militia Football Team. Each book in the series contains a standalone story.
This is a great way to explore this fantastic series, getting 3 books to sink your teeth into- with captivating stories and wonderful characters to discover between the covers. If you are like me, you will find that three books are not enough- and go searching for more.
I love Stephanie Queen’s Beachcomber Investigations series- so I was really intrigued to see what she could do with sports romance. As expected, these books are really beautifully written and were so much (sexy) fun to read.
This boxset contains:

Playing For the Money.
Hunter Quintana really needs to keep his head down and stay out of trouble- being on probation and all. So, a fling with the coaches daughter would probably be a bad idea. Right? Dive into this Bad Boy Sports Romance and discover if Hunter can resist temptation and stay out of trouble.

Playing for Love.
This is a really great second chance sports romance with enough angst and drama to keep things really interesting. Gabriel is the star quarterback for the Boston Militia Football Team and life is good. What happens when his girlfriend’s bestie moves to the area and he’s asked to show her around. Yes. You guessed it. Things are about to get interesting!

Playing For Keeps.
Professional football player Tate has good reason to hate reporters. So we get to see the sparks really fly when Chloe, the sports reporter, enters the scene. This is a great enemies to lovers romance- with all the ingredients needed to make it an engrossing read.

 

I really enjoyed this boxset and I am happy to have found some more books in the series to check out!
Happy Reading!

Thank you, Stephanie Queen!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Love on the Ropes: diverse, slow burn, frenemies to lovers, office rom com (Love in Action Book 1) by Aviva Vaughn is a delightful story. Aviva has done a great job with the characters. They will keep you entertained with their shenanigans and frenemies attitude towards one another. The characters feel real and blemished and Aviva could not have done a better job at bringing them to life. Watching them fight every step of the way is fun and enjoyable. Love on the Ropes is a wonderful start to the series, and I can’t wait to see what Aviva gives us next.

Better To Have Loved by Christy Nicholas – Review by Jennifer Gordon

Better To Have LovedBetter To Have Loved by Christy Nicholas
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Based on the author, Christy Nicholas’s own parents love story and also Christy’s journey to find her father this fictionalised memoir was a touching and heartwarming read. Set in a changing America during the Summer of Love in 1969 this novel has a sixties feel about it and due to the authors wonderfully descriptive narrative the era is bought to life through the sights, sounds, smells and emotions of the time. The storyline centres around Julie Jensen’s escape from her “hide-bound world” and midwestern family as she embarks on her own adventure to find her independence whilst in the background America is full of cultural revolution and new freedoms. Following her dreams of art and travel Julie leaves the charming town in southern England and journeys into the decadent realm of Haight-Ashbury and then on to the exotic Barcelona coast. It is on the coast that Julie finds love but then a phone call one night has the opportunity to change her life forever as she has to make a choice between family duty and her own needs. Ultimately she must decide if the love she has found is worth all those she may loose. “Based on a true stories of love found and love lost, and one woman’s discovery of what matters to her”, this story is full of faith, free love and the freedoms of the 1960’s but also family drama and betrayal.
A wonderfully written novel with family and love at the heart of the storyline, the narrative flows well and the characters are likeable and relatable making this an easy read. I felt immersed in the settings described due to the detailed descriptions of time and place. I was fascinated to discover this was based on a true story and the authors personal investment in the novel does come across in the writing making this an engaging read. An enjoyable romantic love story which is all the more poignant for being based on a real couples romance.

Love on the Ropes is the first book I have read by this author and I was not left disappointed.
I loved how Erin and Clint had sexual tension straight away and with their banter and frenemie style loathing for each other it made it a very humerous and addictive read, I could not put it down I read it in one night.
Clint thinks his life could not get anymore perfect until Erin, (who is still trying to discover who she is as a women) walks into the office and changes everything and all that they thought they knew and wanted comes to a hault. With some serious sexual chemistry and witty banter between the two you will be left wanting more and more.

☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆
This is a full length Romantic Novel. Filled with suspense and some pretty steamy entertainment. Not for those under 18, due to adult content.

Welcome Giovanni and Serena! So guess who is after Serena? But let me tell you, she is a very strong independent woman. Even though Giovanni what’s to protect her and keep her safe, in the prison he calls home. Body guards everywhere and she still sneaks out, undetected. Read on to find out more. No Spoiler here!

Via Mari you never disappoint. This story takes off on page one, and continues to the End. I absolutely love how the women are always strong and independent. Your men are always learning to listen, even when they know best. The hot and steamy parts are just that Hot and Steamy. While this is a romantic story, there is so much more. The suspense raises your heart rate along with all your feelings. Job well done Via Mari! I’m looking forward to reading your next book!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The started out slow and we are introduced to many characters. I loved the action at the camp between these two. It showed how sexy they could be together if they went that way. Clint seems VERY into her. I liked that. Once the story gets back to civilization it seemed to focus a lot on the jobs they both have and the romance seems to take a back seat.

Overall I enjoyed the story and read it fairly quickly. I really didn’t see any of the frenemies action or the cockiness from Clint that I was expecting. Clint seems very down to earth and kind. No showboating from him at all. I see the next in the series is about Patrick(who we haven’t met…only heard about). We will see where that takes us.

Kickflip Summer by Danielle Jacks a five-star read that will bring sunshine to your life. I didn’t realise this was a debut novel until I sat down to write this review and I am so impressed, normally a debut shows the lack of writing experience usually with how they build the characters, but honestly this didn’t lack at all. Bear and Kara are just adorable and when you add some great secondary characters who bring something special to the story it sparkles with life. This was a great story and I know many will love it, I had my last summer many years ago, but this brought me back to that amazing time, new love and having your heart flutter and break in ways you cant imagine. If anyone needs a break from the harsh realities of life, needs a little brightness and joy in their lives then pick this story up as all of the characters will bring a ray of sunshine to you.

and..She did it again! When I tell you you need to pick up all of the series that are associated with these characters I’m not kidding. Too much history and characters tightly woven together to miss out on the whole of these stories.

I loved this one as much as I loved the rest, I picked it up planning to just get it started and then ended up not doing anything I had planned because I had to finish it. Again, I was on the edge of my seat because you truly didn’t know what was coming on the next page. There was a definite heat factor between Gio and Serena, but that wasn’t the main focus and I appreciated that. I loved Serena’s strength and her determination to be heard in this book. She was a definite handful and that made for some smiles mixed in with the drama and the danger that was surrounding her. I think my favorite part was the family aspect of this story, dysfunctional in many ways but in the end family, acceptance, and forgiveness prevailed. This happening was awesome to watch play out.

There are so many more stories you can see happening while reading this book and I can not wait to read every one of them. I am totally invested in this whole series and it is an absolute must read. This author has a way of weaving her words and these stories where they just grab a hold of you and hang on.

I LOVED it and can not wait for more, I’m a definite forever fan of this author!

Rookie Moves by Tarrah Anders a five-star read with all the moves. This was good, I picked it up thinking I would read a chapter or two and then all of a sudden, I realised that it was over. I enjoyed everything about this story, Grant is the epitome of a bad boy, I love how the author had me hating him at the beginning and having him grow on me, he became a great player on the page. Emily was just the icing on a great story, the chemistry she brought alive made the story and brought Grant out. I will be picking up more from this author as I have only read one previously and it was different to this one, I have a good feeling about this author.

Maggie Armstrong grew up enchanted by her father’s tales of blood feuds and border raids. In fact, she could have easily fallen for the man portrayed in one particular image in his portrait collection. Yet when her father reveals he was himself an infamous Border reiver, she finds it a bit far-fetched—to say the least—especially when he announces his plans to return to his sixteenth century Scottish home with her in tow.

Suspecting it’s just his way of getting her to accompany him on yet another archaeological dig, Maggie agrees to the expedition, only to find herself transported four hundred and fifty years into the past. Though a bit disoriented at first, she discovers her father’s world to be every bit as exciting as his stories, particularly when she’s introduced to Ian Rutherford, the charming son of a neighboring laird. However, when her uncle announces her betrothal to Ian, Maggie’s twentieth-century sensibilities are outraged. She hardly even knows the man. But a refusal of his affections could ignite a blood feud.

Maggie’s worlds are colliding. Though she’s found the family she always wanted, the sixteenth century is a dangerous place. Betrayal, treachery, and a tragic murder have her questioning whether she should remain or try to make her way back to her own time.

To make matters worse, tensions escalate when she stumbles across Bonnie Will Foster, the dashing young man in her father’s portrait collection, only to learn he is a dreaded Englishman. But could he be the hero she’s always dreamed him to be? Or will his need for revenge against Ian shatter more than her heart?

Love On The Ropes (Love In Action Book 1) by Aviva Vaughn – Review by Tehreem Tahir

Love On The Ropes (Love in Action, #1)Love On The Ropes by Aviva Vaughn
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book was so good! Erin and Clint are coworkers who dislike each other. Erin doesn’t like him because he’s overly pompous and way too cocky for her liking. And Clint finds her ridiculously attractive but because she doesn’t like him, he doesn’t like her. As they’re put into different work situations, they become closer and realise maybe there’s a misunderstanding between the two.

I absolutely loved this! I love the two separate and together! I just felt like I related to the main character so much because she was trying to prove herself and struggled with a lot internally and it didn’t seem like a plot device unlike some other books. I really liked Clint from the start although he was very self involved, he got better as time went on and I found his radio persona intriguing!

I really want to read more works by this author now! Work romances + hate to love = a very happy me! And especially when the authors writing is so witty and the character’s have such a great banterous relationship!

Tidal Love by K.M. Lowe

I want to give this a thousand stars. I will be looking for more of Lowe’s books because…wow. Tidal Love will have you wishing you were in Bulgaria. K.M. Lowe is an amazing author!

Harleigh, Harls as her brother, Lucca, and Gio call her, is trying to climb out of a dark place. Her family is worried and her brother books her a vacation. She goes alone expecting not to like it, but on her first day in town she meets the owner. The quote I chose for Harls is: “I’m not scared of you, Giovani. I’m actually the most relaxed I’ve been in…such a long time. I like spending time with you. I never imagined I’d be here with someone like you. I thought I would have spent my full holiday hiding away at the pool, but you make me excited to start a new day.”

Giovani, Gio as everyone calls him, finds that he is lonely. He doesn’t trust women like normal, but someone changes his mind about it quickly. Harls stepped into the hotel and changed his life. The quote I chose for Gio is: “We’re having fun, Harleigh. Do you want to know what I think? I think you’re over-thinking things. What we have going on between us is beautiful. I know how confusing these feelings are because I’ve never felt them before. But why waste time trying to analyse everything? We’re in a beautiful country, enjoying each other’s company. We’re adults, and if something should blossom between us, I think we’re big enough to deal with it. So, what do you say we just go for lunch and have a good time? Whatever happens after that, happens.”

I definitely recommend this for romance lovers!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

‘Tidal Love’ by KM Lowe literally took me on an emotional rollercoaster whilst I was reading it. I was hooked from the very first page and found myself totally immersed in the novel until the very last page. The dramatic and overly realistic prologue had me gripped and although I found it uncomfortable to read this was due to the authors wonderfully written, honest and descriptive narrative. I was rooting for Harleigh from then on, knowing what she had been through in her past and this was a book I could not put down.

School teacher Harleigh Harrison is sent on an elaborate holiday to Bulgaria over the Summer by her older brother Gavin in the hope that she can rest and recover from her abusive relationship with ex fiancé Martin. Harleigh is apprehensive about her trip but is also looking forward to some sun, sea, and cocktails. The last thing Harleigh is thinking about is meeting a man but having met Giovani Russi as soon as she enters her hotel she can not deny that the handsome Gio catches her eye. Meanwhile workaholic Giovani is happy running his hotel in Bulgaria, and is busy growing his empire. Having suffered his own heartbreak Gio is now enjoying living the life of luxury and is not interested in relationships until he meets Harleigh and suddenly she is all he can think about. As Harleigh and Giovani spend more time together and get to know each other they realise they are both lost souls with pasts which makes it difficult for them to trust again but they also start to realise what they have both been missing out on, love.

I found this to be a really heartwarming and at times heart breaking read but thanks to the authors wonderful narrative the book was also an easy read which flowed well. The storyline centred around Harleigh and Gio, who were both great characters as they were likeable, realistic and relatable. However the secondary characters such as Harleigh’s brothers, Gavin and Sebastian and Gio’s brother Lucca were all fascinating and added to the story. The plot had plenty of drama and suspense and of course romance with a twist near the end which I had not seen coming. I liked how the couple’s relationship had a ‘slow burn’ element despite their instant mutual attraction and that their chemistry came across in the story.

The story was told from two different point of views, Harleigh and Giovani’s and this made getting to know them a lot easier and by being inside their head it made me feel immersed in the story. The authors amazingly detailed descriptions of Bulgaria also made me feel like I was there. Although the book deals with some darker topics it is done so sensitively and within the context of the storyline. An enjoyable, emotional and engaging five star read which I definitely recommend.

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I liked the idea of this story from reading the synopsis. As I got into the story I found I just couldn’t stay focused. The writing seems choppy and Way way too many characters the author wants us to know about. Plus there are a lot of storylines running through here. I know they all circle around to meet in the end. Speaking of that…this really pricked my interest again about three quarters of the way through. Quick action! This has just about everything that could happen…does happen in here.

I liked the story line of Beth and Martin and his brother. There does seem to be some heat between Beth and Martin that could be felt. I also think I would be terrified if I needed to be treated in her hospital. Scary amount of stuff happening there.

Overall it’s an okay read.

This is another action packed story. I enjoyed it. Julian really impressed me in this one. I didn’t realize he is such a force of nature to be reckoned with. He see a problem and he fixes it. Once he sees Sadie and Holly multiple times he realizes fate is stepping in. Holly hasn’t had a great life but she sure turned herself around. I actually ended up liking Her and of course Sadie is the cutest!

I also didn’t realize that Julius had such a large family (They could have their own series). All of his brothers are wonderful and I love how they have each other’s back.

This is the third book in the series. This one is my favorite so far. The story moves along at lightening speed and is filled the drama and suspense.

Read Between the Lines by Belinda Williams

Who is this author and where has she been all of my life? This is the question I am asking myself as I write this review. Belinda Willams has a very creative knack for snagging a reader’s attention and not letting it go until the very end. As the first book in her Freshwater book series, Read Between the Lines was phenomenal.

So where to begin to start my review. There is just SO much about this book that I want to say and I hope I can put it here for you. Belinda Williams takes the reader on an incredible journey with this book. There’s humor; the best line EVER written in a book: ‘kale has no right to be in liquid form’ tickled my funny bone immensely!! Romance, we’re talking the swoon-worthy kind. TONS of feels, be prepared to laugh and cry. Then there are the characters, Matt & Kat. From the introduction to the end, watching them evolve and work through the ups and downs of not only their relationship but their interactions with sub-characters was wondrous. ‘Read Between the Lines’ hits all the markers for a perfect romance book.

As this is not the first series by this author but the first book for me, I definitely will be reading her other works. With a campy writing style that’s fun and easy to get through but still takes on powerful subjects and feelings, Belinda Williams covers it all. As much as I want to tell you more about this book, I don’t want to share any spoilers. Read the blurb. Pick up the book. You’ll thank me. Of this I’m certain. So I’ll just say it now: You’re welcome. 🙂

An amazing set of books. From he first book I was hooked on the story and the concept of an adult theme park. Each book of this series I picked up pulled me in right away and left me begging for more. I love that you would think the story should be over and what left is there, but then here comes another book, with a new set of characters with a new bunch of drama and romance and a whole lot more fun at the park. The box set includes Sugar & Spice, Virtue & Vice, Fire & Ice and Naughty & Nice. The names of the books alone captured me, each book will always have the two people that started it all, Cyrus and Jolie, it is nice to see their story still unfold through each book. I highly recommend this series, it is steamy, has drama, fun, I think I’m the point where Phoebe Alexander should just go ahead and start the first adult theme park and make this a reality!
