Three Stars As a self-proclaimed Lauren Layne superfan, I was really looking forward to the start of a fun new NYC-set romance series from LL. I knew going into the book that this would be a sweet romance with fade-to-black sex scenes, so I tried to temper my expectations accordingly. The story follows Oliver, a … Continue reading Review: Passion on Park Avenue by Lauren Layne

Review: Unbroken by Jay Crownover
Four Stars I think part of the reason I ended up liking this novella, is because I really didn't enjoy the first 10%. I had no interest in a hero who has ruined his life through addiction and self-pity. Plus the opening scene in this book is super graphic.

The premise of a playboy cowboy and a movie dog trainer was giving me all the right feels … Continue reading Review: The Cowboy and His Baby by Jessica Clare

Unfortunately, this book tipped into the over the top and … Continue reading Review: No Other Duke but You by Valerie Bowman
Review: Taken by Rebecca Zanetti

HIDDEN was actually one of my very favorite books of 2018. So I had high expectations going into TAKEN, especially because I have read, and loved, many of RZ's novellas … Continue reading Review: Taken by Rebecca Zanetti
Review: Anything But A Duke by Christy Carlyle
Two Stars This was my first Christy Carlyle novel and I have to be honest, I was completely pulled in by the stunning cover and fun synopsis. Diana, our heroine, is an impoverished inventor looking to save her family by acquiring an investor for one of her creations. Aidan is a self-made man and investor … Continue reading Review: Anything But A Duke by Christy Carlyle
