Grouchy heroes are my catnip and Bren had a scowl that gave me shivers. As always, Ms. Meader manages to surprise me with the emotional depth and intensity of … Continue reading Review: Hooked On You by Kate Meader

Review: Fighting for Everything by Laura Kaye
Laura Kaye has been one of my favorite authors for years. I was so excited to hear she was writing a new series centered around a fighting gym for individuals with PTSD. Starting Fighting for Everything, I was quickly reminded how well Ms. Kaye portrays mental health in her novels. Our hero, Noah Cortez, has … Continue reading Review: Fighting for Everything by Laura Kaye
Review: Pas De Deux by Lynn Turner
I saw this book all over Instagram and that isn't usually enough to influence me, until read the description. A prima ballerina changing lanes to do an experimental Broadway show with a sexy, enigmatic director? SIGN ME UP. I am such a Broadway junkie. I may or may not be listening to the Book of … Continue reading Review: Pas De Deux by Lynn Turner
Review: A Summer to Remember by Mary Balogh
I adored this book. It always takes me a few chapters to sink into Mary Balogh's writing style. She drives the story and her characters through their internal growth and speculation rather than than the dialogue. It's truly, very refreshing. Don't be intimidated by pages without dialogue. Things are happening, the book is moving forward, … Continue reading Review: A Summer to Remember by Mary Balogh
Review: Luck of the Draw by Kate Clayborn
I did something completely out of character before starting this book, or should I say I DIDN'T do something. I didn't read the book summary *gasps* I honestly don't know if I've ever started a book without reading the blurb. But boy am I glad I didn't. I felt like Ms. Clayborn was giving me … Continue reading Review: Luck of the Draw by Kate Clayborn
Review: Claiming His Hidden Heir by Carol Marinelli
Let me just put this out there. This book surprised me in a really good way. The book was far more about the maturing of the relationship between billionaire playboy Luka and his straitlaced personal assistant Cecelia than any crazy baby stuff. Cece and Luka were both flawed people with difficult childhoods and I felt … Continue reading Review: Claiming His Hidden Heir by Carol Marinelli

**I received an ARC of this book in order to provide an honest review** "Being overworked has been my drug of choice for years, leaving me no time to think about my nonexistent love life.
