Book Review – Play On by Samantha Young

May 23, 2018 by Megan · Leave a Comment

Samantha Young has penned some of my favorite love stories, including On Dublin Street and Before Jamaica Lane. However, unlike those old favorites, PLAY ON, didn't capture my heart or leave an impression on me. Nora meets and falls for the ever-charming Jim in her Ohio ...

Audiobook Review – Appealed by Emma Chase

May 3, 2018 by Megan · Leave a Comment

I enjoyed Overruled and Sustained, the first two books in Emma Chase's Legal Brief series, so I wanted to give the final book in the trilogy a try. While it certainly offered the same steam factor as the previous books, the plot was too generic and full of cliches that ...

April 30, 2018 by Megan · Leave a Comment

Work has been really crazy for me, so I've been on the hunt for quick, mindless romances to read. I remember seeing this series all over the place—on social media, advertisements on prominent bloggers' websites. I thought with so many popular bloggers essentially endorsing ...

Audiobook Review – The Idea of You by Robinne Lee

April 26, 2018 by Megan · Leave a Comment

Robinne Lee pens a May-December romance that left me crawling to the end and wondering how this all will work out. Will it work out? Even though I wasn't as invested in the love story (and I knew the ending due to a friend accidentally spoiling it for me), I can empathize ...

Book Review – This Love Story Will Self-Destruct by Leslie Cohen

April 25, 2018 by Megan · Leave a Comment

THIS LOVE STORY WILL SELF-DESTRUCT is an all-consuming read. Leslie Cohen's debut rendered me completely useless on a snowy Sunday in April (yes, April. Spring is drunk). This book had the perfect balance of funny and light-hearted moments with depth and emotion. Highly ...

April 24, 2018 by Megan · Leave a Comment
