This is my first Lauren Layne book and I am so happy I picked it up. I'm a sucker for friends-to-lovers stories, and reading Ben and Parker's love story was super fun. "Once upon a time, I could have been his champion. The one who’d go find him right this second and give an ...

Book Review – Whatever Life Throws at You by Julie Cross
July 12, 2018 by · Leave a Comment
WHATEVER LIFE THROWS AT YOU is a young adult contemporary romance that takes place in Kansas City and centers around the Royals baseball team. This is an addictive, sports romance with a forbidden element that I had a hard time putting down, but longed for a more involved ...
Audiobook Review – Act Life It by Lucy Parker
July 11, 2018 by · Leave a Comment
I bought Lucy Parker's ACT LIKE IT a long time ago and decided to give it a go since I've been on a contemporary romance kick the last several months. While not perfect, this hate-to-love fauxmance was entertaining and fun to read. The story is set on London's stage ...
Book Review – Stuck-Up Suit by Vi Keeland and Penelope Ward
July 10, 2018 by · Leave a Comment
Stuck-Up Suit is the next stop on my home renovation audiobook extravaganza. I like having light romances to listen to while I do mindless house work. STUCK-UP SUIT is the first book I've read from this author duo. I just thought this book was okay but I'd be open to reading ...

July 9, 2018 by · Leave a Comment
The third installment in Emma Chase's Royally series may be the best of the series with less cheesy moments but it wouldn't be one I would reread nor would it be a favorite book of mine. Royally Endowed is a spin on the classic forbidden off-limits romance trope and features ...
Audiobook Review – Keepsake by Sarina Bowen
July 6, 2018 by · Leave a Comment
My library had KEEPSAKE as an available now on audio. And since I read the previous two books in the True North series, I picked up this one. Keepsake doesn't break any new grounds but it wasn't a bad read, but it wasn't a captivating one either. Like the all books in this ...
Audiobook Review – Steadfast by Sarina Bowen
July 5, 2018 by · Leave a Comment
STEADFAST is the second book in Sarina Bowen's steamy romantic series surrounding a group of farmers in Vermont. This is Jude's story. You don't have to read Bittersweet (My review) to start with this one, as each book can be read as a standalone. You can read my reviews of ...
Audiobook Review – The Wall of Winnipeg and Me by Mariana Zapata
July 4, 2018 by · Leave a Comment
THE WALL OF WINNIPEG AND ME checks off several boxes for what makes a good romance book. A brooding hero of few words: Check. A tension-filled journey to love: Check. Likable characters: Check. Good relationship development: Check. All of these things had me ...
Audiobook Review – Made for You by Melissa Marr
July 2, 2018 by · Leave a Comment
MADE FOR YOU is a book I've been meaning to read for the last three years. When I went to the Romantic Times Convention in 2015, I heard Melissa Marr talk a little about this book. As a lover of young adult, I thought this one sounded intriguing with a psychotic killer ...
