Review ~ Something Wilder by Christina Lauren

Something Wilder by Christina Lauren My rating: 4 of 5 stars I’ve read a lot a of Christina Lauren’s books and this read was a little different from what I expected. It had the second chance romance building, but they also threw a suspense element into the story as well. The treasure hunt storyline was a lot of fun and watching Lily and Leo reconnect...

Review ~ Good Girl Complex by Elle Kennedy

Good Girl Complex by Elle Kennedy My rating: 4.5 of 5 starsThis book consumed me! I read two thirds of it one day then could not sleep that night as I wanted to know what was going to happen next between Cooper and Mac. It was fun to watch these two characters who were from different worlds mesh together. Although their initial meeting began as revenge...

Review ~ Fractured Freedom by Shain Rose

Fractured Freedom by Shain Rose My rating: 3 of 5 stars This read started a bit choppy, jumping over the place for a while, but once the read settled and became more fluent, it was pretty good. My heart ached for Lilah, what she had been through and lost. She was quite withdrawn compared to the happy girl that we first met. But as her story unfolded,...

Review ~ Echoes of You by Catherine Cowles

Echoes of You by Catherine Cowles My rating: 4 of 5 stars I was excited for Nash and Maddie’s story and it certainly didn’t disappoint. What Maddie had endured not only early in life, but also as of late was heartbreaking. But it was sweet to see that Nash still cared immensely for Maddie. Both of them maintained a strong connection over time and distance....

Review ~ Whispers of You by Catherine Cowles

Whispers of You by Catherine Cowles My rating: 5 of 5 stars This was such a great romantic suspense. I was captivated by the opening chapters and kept on the edge of my seat! I was enthralled by Wren’s story, what she had been through, what she’d lost and how she survived and became a stronger version of herself. Holt was a lost soul there for a while,...

Audiobook Review ~ Rich in Your Love by Pippa Grant

Rich in Your Love by Pippa Grant My rating: 4 of 5 stars The Tickled Pink series has been an amusing series to listen to. Savannah Peachwood and Sebastian York delivered Tavi and Dylan’s story with spice and flair! It was such an entertaining and light read that I enjoyed being immersed in. I liked the real side to Tavi, she wasn’t the spaced out girl...

Audiobook Review ~ The One Who Loves You by Pippa Grant

The One Who Loves You by Pippa Grant My rating: 4 of 5 stars This was such a fun and enjoyable read to listen to. Anything that Sebastian York narrates has the tendency to hook me and paired with Savannah Peachwood I was lost into this world. Pippa Grant wove this story perfectly and I was easily lost in her story and you bet that I want more from...

Review ~ Heartless by Michelle Heard

Heartless by Michelle Horst My rating: 3 of 5 stars This wasn’t a bad read, however I felt it was quite rushed. Della was used to flying under the radar, and at the end of college the screw crew noticed her. They boys liked to tease, starting a bet to put her on the list. She was determined not to bend and the banter between them all was amusing. Carter...
