Nate's agent is Piper and Lottie is Piper's best friend and also a matchmaker. Lottie tried to find a bride for Nathan to help rehab his bad media reputation but instead they fell for each other.

Its a very slow burn and a very twisted road they go on. They have to figure out how to be vulnerable with each other and at times I was very frustrated with them because everyone knew how they felt, well except each other.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;">In the middle of it, Adalynn decides she wants to get pregnant, and she feels Cash is hopeless and he will never see her as anything other than a friend. Meanwhile Cash has a lot of excuses about Adalynn and why they can't be together. On one hand he thinks she is all vanilla sex, and he wants it not vanilla. Then he feels unworthy of her because he is a foster kid with no family. He kind of drove me as crazy as he drives Adalynn and I really felt for her. She loves this really complicated guy who is so confusing. Honestly the decisions she makes, I would have done too. But I am not telling you what that was. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;">This book when it finally gets going is HOT. So, if you like a hot sexy guy then Cash is definitely that. And while he has all these excuses, his heart is Adalynn's and has been for years. He definitely had some very swoony moments for me. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;">There are some shenanigans in this book related to Adalynn's brothers and at times I am not sure I loved that. They like sharing girlfriends and well that's a bit too much for me. Then the author introduces this guy Carter and I have no idea what's going on there. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;">I enjoyed reading this story but at times I just wanted for these two to communicate. I really wish I got more scenes with Cash and Adalynn after they confessed their feelings and less of a rollercoaster of their finding their way. But aside from that I enjoyed the book. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial;

font-size: large;"> <span style="color: #050505;">This book is #2 in the book series but also easily stands alone. It introduces a new character to Magnolia Falls, Ruby, who is the daughter of the towns local bar owner. She is in town to help her father run his bar while he recovers from a heart attack. River is a lawyer and also is very close with her father. He wants to help her with running the bar and visits with her father a lot. Thats how these two end up running into each other throughout the book.</span></span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;"><span style="color: #050505;">River has a younger brother, Kingston and he is a big part of River's story. He was so cute and friendly and a real sweetheart. River is pretty awesome too but in a very grumpy way. He has a huge heart but he is not super trusting and so it takes a lot for him to show his heart and softness. </span></span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;"><span style="color: #050505;">In Ruby River finds a matching spirit. Ruby is one tough cookie. She had to be. She has two younger brothers, a mom who complains, never has enough money and is pretty useless as a parent. Luckily for Ruby she always had her dad in her corner. So, she comes back to town with a graduate degree and wanting to help out her dad. </span></span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;"><span style="color: #050505;">The couple from the first book is also featured in this book and if you read the first book you get to continue and see their very happy ending. The stars of the book are Romeo and Demi. Romeo is also connected the authors previous series about Cottonwood, and we get to visit with those characters too in this book. </span></span><span style="color: #050505; font-family: helvetica; font-size: x-large;">Demi is also a big part of this book as she and her friends welcome Ruby to town and befriend her. </span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #050505; font-family: helvetica; font-size: x-large;">I really loved this book. It was a lot of fun. Ruby is pretty much at a crossroads and finds a soulmate in River. But being with him means she has to stick around in the town and its not something she ever saw herself doing. I adored how tough she was but also how vulnerable she was at times. I also loved River, he was so cutely grumpy. I loved his relationship with his new secretary and how easy it was to drive him a bit crazy.

This story doesn't really begin here. It actually begins in Palmer's parents' book, Rules for Dating Your Ex, which is one of the last Bailey books, which was published in 2020. I highly suggest you read that book first. Its stars are Jamison and Sedona Bailey, two of my favorite characters and Palmer's their child. That story ends and you think everything is all happiness and lightness and then you read this story and you see how that story really impacted Palmer even though she was 18 months at the time.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: helvetica;">In this book we get to see her as a single mom, who is anti-marriage, and who is a romance writer with a best friend who is her baby daddy, and they live next door to each other while they both coparent their adorable daughter Adley.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: helvetica;">One thing I really liked was that Palmer in the original book was deaf and in this book she is deaf too. She uses sign language a lot to communicate and at times she uses it to keep a wall up with people she doesn't know, like her baby daddy, Hudson's new girlfriend, Theresa. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: helvetica;">We get to see a lot of Harper in this book. She is very close with both Hudson and Palmer and is also Palmer's cousin. She also babysits a lot for Palmer and I loved watching her with Adley. One thing I wish we had more scenes with were Sedona and Jameson. They do appear in this book and in pivotal scenes, I just wish we had MORE scenes with them. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: helvetica;">This book was a really fast read and was a pretty light book. It really is about Palmer's journey, and she has to face her heart and is at a crossroads of sorts. There is a bit of a double triangle here and I hate triangles, but it worked really well here. In a way it was designed to be the shock that Palmer needs to face so she can make some decisions about what she wants her future to be. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><br /></span></div></span>Sharon Rosenthalhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12614928336778493826noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2834396368203883586.post-27435107344932574072024-03-25T05:00:00.000-07:002024-03-25T05:00:00.243-07:00PRE:ORDER FOR MARCH 28!

Cash is their CEO and, in this book, he is under fire for insider trading. He ends up taking a few days off and visiting Hawaii. Dusty Rose in in Hawaii for a business conference. But she is looking for a new job, so she goes and ends up having a fun trip.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;">He sees her while she is out surfing and falls pretty hard. They end up hanging out and share one very hot night and then she disappears. He is pretty devastated until he catches the company's new hire.... and that's where the fun begins.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;">Despite the whole insider stock trading thing and his ex-working at the company, this was a very hot and fun story that I loved so much. It's a light and fast read and the ex and insider trading thing are minor parts of the story. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;">One aspect of this story I loved so much was the Maddox brothers. They are just so much fun. They are 100% there for each other but they also enjoy driving each other a bit crazy. The scenes when they are there for each other was just so much fun. I hope we get more of that in future books.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><p></p>

I’ve spent most of my adult life trying to ignore him, which isn’t easy when you live in a small town and share the same friends.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">So, when I have a little too much to drink and need a place to crash after our friends’ wedding, it would figure I find myself at Logan’s house. What I’m not expecting is ending up in his bed. With him. Naked. More so, I wasn’t anticipating enjoying myself as much as I did, anxious for a repeat, which is why I’m not surprised when it happens again.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">The problem is those drunken nights have resulted in something unplanned. Something monumental. Something that will change our lives forever.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><b><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>Logan</b></div></b><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Being attracted to someone who drives you completely crazy is its own form of hell. Hallie Rhodes is entirely infuriating, yet so damn beautiful it makes me ache.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">There’s a fine line between love and hate, and we’ve been blurring it for as long as I can remember. So, when a late, drunken night turns into something it shouldn’t, all bets are off. Plans change and futures are cemented, despite having no idea what really comes next. All I know is the more time we spend together, the more I realize having her in my life is paramount.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Now my biggest challenge of all presents itself. Proving to Hallie we’re better together than we ever were apart.</div></span><div>

It's a standalone in a series and book #3 in the series and stars Logan and Hallie who are very much frenemies but also share a friend group in a small town. Hallie is single and a Kindergarten teacher, Logan is a divorcee with a horrible ex-wife he shares a business wife. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;">Logan and Hallie have never been friends. They are constantly bickering but they also share best friends so they can never escape each other. They end up having a couple one-night stands that lead to a surprise and a roomie situation. Will they learn to get a long or kill each other? You will have to read this book to find out.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;">This is a light and fun story that I highly enjoyed. I loved the chemistry between Hallie and Logan. These two swipes at each other a lot but it's all done in a fun way, and I loved their interactions with each other. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;">If you love a surprise baby between two frenemies, then you will love Logan and Hallie. They are so much fun and a great couple. The only thing I did not love about this story was they never end up dating or even go on dates.

One aspect I loved about the book is how it and Laina is loosely connected to the authors other series.</span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span data-sheets-userformat="{"2":6659,"3":{"1":0},"4":{"1":2,"2":16777215},"12":0,"14":{"1":2,"2":3700253},"15":"Arial"}" data-sheets-value="{"1":2,"2":"I received a complimentary early release e-book prior to release and am voluntarily leaving a review."}"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span data-sheets-userformat="{"2":6659,"3":{"1":0},"4":{"1":2,"2":16777215},"12":0,"14":{"1":2,"2":3700253},"15":"Arial"}" data-sheets-value="{"1":2,"2":"I received a complimentary early release e-book prior to release and am voluntarily leaving a review."}"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;">Laina is a rock star and is engaged to a movie star with some toxic tendencies. When she does a runaway bride and goes to the only place she know she will be safe. She contacts her manager, Anjelica and she is an artist for Mason Music and deals a lot with Coy and Boone Mason who each have their own book in the author's Mason series. I addition when she does her runaway bride thing, she has bodyguard from Landry Security, which is part of the Landry Family series. I really adored catching the characters and the references as I was reading this book.</span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span data-sheets-userformat="{"2":6659,"3":{"1":0},"4":{"1":2,"2":16777215},"12":0,"14":{"1":2,"2":3700253},"15":"Arial"}" data-sheets-value="{"1":2,"2":"I received a complimentary early release e-book prior to release and am voluntarily leaving a review."}"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span data-sheets-userformat="{"2":6659,"3":{"1":0},"4":{"1":2,"2":16777215},"12":0,"14":{"1":2,"2":3700253},"15":"Arial"}" data-sheets-value="{"1":2,"2":"I received a complimentary early release e-book prior to release and am voluntarily leaving a review."}"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;">This is a second chance romance with a rock star and takes place in small town. This is described as frenemy romance and I am not sure it really qualifies. There is no hate or even anger on either side. Luke and Laina dated from 17 to 24. Now at age thirty she runs aways to his smalltown where she grew up. He was her first love and best friend until she moved with her father to Nashville. Luke and Laina didn't break up really, they just let love go, didn't fight for each other or to be with each other. But they did not hate each other. I guess you could say they were young and stupid and things got in their way. </span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span data-sheets-userformat="{"2":6659,"3":{"1":0},"4":{"1":2,"2":16777215},"12":0,"14":{"1":2,"2":3700253},"15":"Arial"}" data-sheets-value="{"1":2,"2":"I received a complimentary early release e-book prior to release and am voluntarily leaving a review."}"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span data-sheets-userformat="{"2":6659,"3":{"1":0},"4":{"1":2,"2":16777215},"12":0,"14":{"1":2,"2":3700253},"15":"Arial"}" data-sheets-value="{"1":2,"2":"I received a complimentary early release e-book prior to release and am voluntarily leaving a review."}"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;">Luke is also described as the town playboy. I am not sure I would describe he as one. In the first book he has a serious girlfriend, and, in this book, they have been broken up for six months or so. I am not sure that would describe him as a playboy. But he is the fun brother, I am not sure that makes him a playboy. He is fun, sweet, kind, a little bit cocky and is a total sweetheart. </span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span data-sheets-userformat="{"2":6659,"3":{"1":0},"4":{"1":2,"2":16777215},"12":0,"14":{"1":2,"2":3700253},"15":"Arial"}" data-sheets-value="{"1":2,"2":"I received a complimentary early release e-book prior to release and am voluntarily leaving a review."}"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span data-sheets-userformat="{"2":6659,"3":{"1":0},"4":{"1":2,"2":16777215},"12":0,"14":{"1":2,"2":3700253},"15":"Arial"}" data-sheets-value="{"1":2,"2":"I received a complimentary early release e-book prior to release and am voluntarily leaving a review."}"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;">This book really seemed to be about love, family and trust. Laina does not have a good family life. She wants so much to trust them but they use her. Luke has the best family. They support and love each other and their parents show their love everyday. But they are not rich monetarily but they are rich in family and love. Meanwhile Laina has a bunch of houses, travels around the world and lotsa money but she doesn't have love or family. This book really shows you which is more important.</span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span data-sheets-userformat="{"2":6659,"3":{"1":0},"4":{"1":2,"2":16777215},"12":0,"14":{"1":2,"2":3700253},"15":"Arial"}" data-sheets-value="{"1":2,"2":"I received a complimentary early release e-book prior to release and am voluntarily leaving a review."}"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;">It was an awesome story, and I loved the ending so much.

She is married to her very own Alpha Male and raising three little ones. You can typically find her running from one sporting event to another. When she is home, she is usually hiding in her home office with the only other female in her house, her rescue dog Tinker Bell by her side. She likes to write swoon-worthy heroes and sassy, smart heroines. Sarcasm is her love language and big family dynamics are her favorite thing to add to each story.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.656; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif;

She writes awesome stories and I really fell in love with the characters in this story as well as this small town. In this book we meet Bishop Mitchell. He is a twin and his twin sister lives in town with her new boyfriend. Her book is in the book right before this one. This story does stand alone and I have not read her book, though I plan to. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;">Bishop is a wanna be baseball player who broke up with his high school girlfriend, Gabi, four years before. He made a big mistake and has missed her so much. He is back in town after a sports injury that destroyed his dreams in his very first game in the MLB team. He has a buddy at the local high school who offers him a temporary job while he rehabs his injury.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;">Meanwhile life has been good to Gabi. She is an artist who lives in town, near her aunt who she grew up living with. She is doing very well and even is now an art teacher at the local high school. Which is how she ends up spending time with her ex, even when she doesn't want to.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;">And so starts Gabi and Bishops second chance. I really loved this book, the characters and the storyline. Even while things for Gabi and Bishop seem similar to where they were 4 years before, they aren't. They have grown up and realize that life is hard if you are missing half your heart. I loved watching them let each other into their hearts and learn from their past. This was one of the best second chance romances I have read in a while and I adored the main characters.</span></div><p></p>Sharon Rosenthalhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12614928336778493826noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2834396368203883586.post-51536259227550560912024-03-11T05:00:00.000-07:002024-03-12T00:16:56.394-07:00The Unwanted Wife By L.

<p><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;">This is Nathan and Skylar's story and its very, very complicated. It also has a bunch of tropes. I also felt like it was a drama and had suspense as I closed in on the end of the book. I really liked that part of the story where things came up and out that I was not expecting though there were a few clues along the way.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;">Lets talk about the tropes. Its an age gap but I am not 100% sure of the ages. Based on other characters ages, I think Nathan is in his early 40's, 42 maybe. Skylar is supposed to be 15 years younger so I am going with 27. She had a huge crush and kissed Nathan on her 18th birthday, so this story takes place about 9 years later. I really want authors to give the characters ages in books and not make me do the whole guessing game. Especially when the age gap is a part of the age gap trope.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;">Skylar's beloved older brother is a military guy and he is best friends with Nathan. Ben asked Nathan to help him take care of Skyler. So when he finds her bakery in trouble he wants to help. But its also to help him because he estranged grandfather has promised him a CEO job if he gets hitched. So thats where the fake marriage or unwanted wife aspect of this story comes in. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;">These two have this really huge connection. They are like opposite magnets, they need to be together and are drawn to each other no matter what and that is what happens when they marry. Nathan cannot resist his wife and she cannot resist him either. The sex scenes are hot and very plentiful.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;">This story had REVENGE and family and a whole girl group that support Sky through everything no matter what. My favorite character next to Sky was Zoe. And the end of the book has some yummy recipes I need to try. </span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;">See my review on GOODREADS </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/6334481683"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;">https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/6334481683</span></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;">and on BOOKBUB</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.bookbub.com/reviews/2466455842"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;">https://www.bookbub.com/reviews/2466455842</span></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">and on AMAZON</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-reviews/R38LAJYQZ9JAIJ?ref=pf_ov_at_pdctrvw_srp"><span style="font-size: large;">https://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-reviews/R38LAJYQZ9JAIJ?ref=pf_ov_at_pdctrvw_srp</span></a></div><p></p>Sharon Rosenthalhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12614928336778493826noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2834396368203883586.post-92173389301993552122024-03-08T05:00:00.000-08:002024-03-08T05:00:00.127-08:00Heartbreaker Handoff - Varsity Dads #5 - by Lex Martin (Billy and Roxy)<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9aJs1HUikYiVQuCb8LrFD2aeNGQeVn6WFGeFxj8o5_VKhWFcz6GwEQgcYoWe1-yoPIGl5unKSs4oCd8lBT-PXmC2fsTfjOE8riwJg56dAcSciK6Y2BUa90Rdf_h1k4ZizKMYwNFTBp-O1MsCTXvoW9hScS01xhFEJlV3u8U9LFpWKZ5A4Fk0oC5VWKYGC/s1920/Heartbreaker%20Handoff%20RB%20Banner.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="732" data-original-width="1920" height="153" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9aJs1HUikYiVQuCb8LrFD2aeNGQeVn6WFGeFxj8o5_VKhWFcz6GwEQgcYoWe1-yoPIGl5unKSs4oCd8lBT-PXmC2fsTfjOE8riwJg56dAcSciK6Y2BUa90Rdf_h1k4ZizKMYwNFTBp-O1MsCTXvoW9hScS01xhFEJlV3u8U9LFpWKZ5A4Fk0oC5VWKYGC/w400-h153/Heartbreaker%20Handoff%20RB%20Banner.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRS4PkJu5uDzg0X698dyGrcgs-iEFZYhqaob_uhOxMEeDnvGeaZVjfx5kLqor__wZOV5bkT0rTfoc3ADsD05oXwxWK998DUjJLHJJBCjVhWsyfmOyBWv43caqIBouXXBOmS3UjAiZDiKNW8W8nJc5zdB5iXZYDHJQsB1upZlmlPYgu1aDTNdwguyRL0iwI/s1200/Heartbreaker%20Handoff%20eBook%20Cover.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="800" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRS4PkJu5uDzg0X698dyGrcgs-iEFZYhqaob_uhOxMEeDnvGeaZVjfx5kLqor__wZOV5bkT0rTfoc3ADsD05oXwxWK998DUjJLHJJBCjVhWsyfmOyBWv43caqIBouXXBOmS3UjAiZDiKNW8W8nJc5zdB5iXZYDHJQsB1upZlmlPYgu1aDTNdwguyRL0iwI/w426-h640/Heartbreaker%20Handoff%20eBook%20Cover.jpg" width="426" /></a></div>

We see a few past characters in this story like Charlie but very occasionally. This book stars Roxy and Billy and its exclusively their story. But it also introduces two new characters, Nick and ---. Sorry I can't spoil the her because she is a major character in this story and this book introduces both characters. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;">What I really liked about this book was it easily could have been a duet. It's really divided into two parts. Each part was awesome, and I love that the author did not make it a duet because I hate those, the waiting kills me. So, for me that was really awesome that it's an all-in-one story. But it is also a long book that will suck you in, so make sure you have plenty of time to read it.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;">I also loved that the author made this book realistic in relation to pregnancy and especially the giving birth and what happens after. It's hard to have a baby and to go to school as well, it really takes a village, and it is very hard on relationships. The author did not gloss this over and make it all rainbows, she made it very realistic. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;">This story is about Roxy who is Hispanic, and her father and mother are very happy together. Couple goals I guess you could say. They live locally and she lives on her own at the start of the book. Her father is coach at her college of the football team, and she was a cheer leader until she found out she was pregnant. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;">So, who's the daddy? At the start of this book, we know its a football player she dated named Ezra who was not faithful and when she goes to tell him he is the daddy, well she gets a HUGE surprise. Sorry, this is a spoiler free review.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;">Billy is Roxy's best friend, and he also is a football player on her dad's team, but as opposed to Ezra her dad hates him, He has a major crush on Roxy and when she tells him her news, he is 100% there for her. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;">Things get very complicated very fast in the first part of the story and it was awesome. I cheered, I laughed, and I even cried a few tears with Roxy. The double date with Ezra was like the best ever!</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;"> The second part of this book takes place very close to Roxy's due date and I loved that it is realistic. So many books leave this out or make it seem like a baby is a piece of cake. It's not it's very hard, messy and complicated. Add in that you are in school. It's not easy and that's what Roxy and Billy discover. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: large;">I really enjoyed this story. There are no other third party in this book and I really loved that. This is 100% Billy and Roxy and I really liked that about this story. </span></div><p></p>Sharon Rosenthalhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12614928336778493826noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2834396368203883586.post-28576988313902529102024-03-07T05:00:00.002-08:002024-03-07T05:00:00.240-08:00Jump on Three - Savage Academy #3 - By Julia Wolf (Evelyn and Ivan)<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;"> <img height="177" src="https://lh7-us.googleusercontent.com/G3KXpnQ4I0vqyXwBdCmA4kz2AYV-vKgEVk5ACW5goPjtWY-pJ96-FFUF58A7IwAR4ECW6pqkwc4Z9F-IETrFvZpuZxtELATGoU3LUFZCL6VbHO_mfouytRhkojWtQo0_jZPyJtnGxh-FTMnMGMF65Q" style="margin-left: -7.65246px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center; white-space-collapse: preserve;" width="495.30492782592773" /></span></p><span id="docs-internal-guid-e5fe1a84-7fff-25c6-6d58-872ba665b3d7" style="font-family: helvetica;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: x-large; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhcPGV4Nabd1kpoVLQbBvDoh0ZYuaR-MKA6S13S7z4zi01ytAvaP05XBwDiIvYpfz_yLsFZXMP-vwhk2x8JZ9jUHONPD_Bops2r5CwtQj2ZR6-mX79RaRnZQ_xhstPyhNXs4xN8a7ZBrP9iYXC8dVfr6eA-b5MNrF6vht9RHJ-mrRGaQ9M0QMlgMQjea6x8/s1080/JOT%20LIVE.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1080" data-original-width="1080" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhcPGV4Nabd1kpoVLQbBvDoh0ZYuaR-MKA6S13S7z4zi01ytAvaP05XBwDiIvYpfz_yLsFZXMP-vwhk2x8JZ9jUHONPD_Bops2r5CwtQj2ZR6-mX79RaRnZQ_xhstPyhNXs4xN8a7ZBrP9iYXC8dVfr6eA-b5MNrF6vht9RHJ-mrRGaQ9M0QMlgMQjea6x8/w400-h400/JOT%20LIVE.png" width="400" /></a></div><br /><p dir="ltr" style="font-size: x-large; line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: center;"><span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: 700; white-space-collapse: preserve;">Jump on Three by J.

text-align: center;"><span>This is Ivan and Evelyn's story, and it was beyond fantastic. I seriously think it's the best in the series and the best thing this author has ever written, and I think it should win her an award. It's also probably one of the best books I have ever read. It is that fantastic. But this story is not always easy, both Ivan and Evelyn are extremely complicated characters with VERY complicated families, but they both are really good people, and they are just magic together. </span></p><p style="font-size: x-large; text-align: center;"><span>Ivan is the new, hot, Russian, swim team guy in school. Evelyn is a twin to her sister Delilah who had a huge crush on Ivan at first. When he was not interested, she found someone else. But Evelyn is loyal to Delilah and liking the guy who turned her twin sister down feels like a betrayal. So, in her mind anything more than friendship would betray the person who she loves like no one else. So, this is very much a forbidden type of romance story.</span></p><p style="font-size: x-large; text-align: center;"><span>Evelyn is on the spectrum. I would say she is extremely high functioning. She has her idiosyncrasies, but she is also able to work with them in her mind with proper planning and preparing. She does things in this book that I am not sure I would do, so someone on the spectrum, I am just not sure they would take the risks she does. But the fact that she does make her a badass i</span>n my opinion and was part of why I loved her so much. </p><p style="font-size: x-large; text-align: center;">Ivan falls hard for Evelyn pretty fast and he is 100% into her. He doesn't even see anyone else. The whole twin thing with Delilah must have been very hard on him. It also means he has a lot of work to do in relation to convincing Evelyn to give him any kind of shot from teammate on the swim team to friendship to even going on a date with him. I loved that Evie was a tough cookie for him to crack but also one he never ever gave up on.</p><p style="font-size: x-large; text-align: center;">And OMG I loved the ending of the book so much. I loved catching a glimpse at their future and how it wasn't a super easy ending but I also loved how their friends are there for them. I am going to miss this series so much. </p><p style="font-size: x-large; text-align: center;"><span><br /></span></p></span>Sharon Rosenthalhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12614928336778493826noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2834396368203883586.post-78372236225914247872024-03-07T05:00:00.001-08:002024-03-07T05:00:00.241-08:00If You Hate Me - The Toronto Terror #1 - By Helena Hunting (Tristan and Rix)<div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

This is a brother's best friend, roomies to lovers, growing up together and hating each other and a sports romance all in one. </span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;">This is a very long story. I liked the length as we really get to know the full cast of characters of this series and we also really get to enjoy Rix and Tristan's romance. </span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;">This story begins with three major characters, Philip (Flip)who is the bestie and also Beatrice/Bea/Rix's older brother. He is kind of gross and has a lot of growing up to do and is extremely immature. But he is also a good brother and when his sister needs help, he is there for her. And thats how she ends up moving in with him. </span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;">Rix is our heroine and she is awesome. As we get to know her we see the issues she faces and one big one she shares with her brother is the fear of being poor, not having enough food and we see how that affects her and Flip. Tristan grew up with them so he understands her fear. While he had plenty of money, he did not have the home filled with love that Flip and Rix had. While they had not much money, they had plenty of love.</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;">Tristan is a very complicated character. He LOVES Flip a lot and he actually owns his own condo and Flip is his roomie. There really is not a room for Rix. So she kinda hears everything that is happening in Flips roomie which at times is very cringe. From the minute Rix moves in, she is all he hears and sees even when they hate each other. </span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;">This book was filled with witty banter and lots of extremely hot scenes and flirting. It also has a huge cast of characters with lots of connections and cute nicknames. To keep everyone straight I had to create a little chart. I highly recommend you do that because it is a big cast. I loved them all a whole lot. Like Tally who is the coaches 17 year old daughter but who Hemi, Rix and Hammer love hanging out with. Then there is Hammer who is 19 and an intern but also the daughter of a hockey player and she lives with her dad. (I cannot wait for her story). And I also adored Hemi, who is the team publicist but who also has a hate thing with a guy on the team. </span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;">This was a really awesome book and I loved this new start to the series. </span></p>Sharon Rosenthalhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12614928336778493826noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2834396368203883586.post-86184029389194812622024-03-07T05:00:00.000-08:002024-03-07T05:00:00.242-08:00PRE:ORDER FOR MARCH 28!

font-size: xx-small;">I received a complimentary early release copy of this e-book from the author prior to release and am voluntarily leaving a review.</span></div><p></p><p><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;">The next Wright series book and couple have arrived, and it is a duet. The second part comes out in April. This is Harley and Chase's story, and it was so good. It's filled with an age gap, family enemies, and is a forbidden romance. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;">It is told in three parts, and we get both Chase and Harley's POV. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;">The first part is the wedding, and we get to attend Jordan Wright's wedding to Annie. If you have read "Wright With Benefit's", you will remember that Chase is Annie's ex. He is also Ashleigh's brother, who once dated Julian Wright. (Julian's story is featured in "Serves Me Wright".)</span></p><p><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;">Harley Wright is one of the newly discovered Wright's and Jordan and Julian are her half-brothers (different mom/2nd family). Her brothers are Whitt and West and she is the baby in the family. She is cousin to the original Wright series siblings, Jenson, Austin, Landon, Morgan and Sutton. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;">I highly suggest you read the first book in the series, "Wright With Benefits", a lot happens in that book that ties into this book. But if you don't, the first part in this book also explains what happened in the past, so it can also be read as a standalone.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;">This is also an age gap story. The gap is really big but when Chase meets Harley, he thinks she is in her early 20's to his 29 years. He falls for Harley, before he learns that she is only a college freshman. I want to put that out there for those who might be upset by this kind of huge age gap. I really wanted Harley and Chase's story, as it's been building in the last few Wright Vineyard stories, so it was not an issue for me. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;">The second part of the story is called Pining and it's the majority of this book. It also takes place over three years, and it takes place as we watch Harley grow up from age 19 to 22, until her graduation. It was the best part of the story. Very angysty and hot and sexy and it was just awesome.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;">The third part is Harley graduates, and she has some really big decisions to make about what she wants to do when she graduates and also what she wants in relation to Chase. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;">This was a fantastic story, and I am waiting for the second part. I adored and loved Chase so much, he is a wonderful character in this book and Harley and him are just perfect together.</span></p><div><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>Sharon Rosenthalhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12614928336778493826noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2834396368203883586.post-69976168390850200302024-02-28T05:00:00.000-08:002024-02-28T05:00:00.144-08:00FREE IN KINDLE UNLIMITED!

They both are very strong and stubborn characters. They have big dreams but they both are lonely. A career does not cuddle with you and make you warm inside. I loved watching these two very strong-willed people, start to let the other in and open their hearts to the possibilities. It was not an easy journey but one that was worth everything. I really loved this book and story. It was hot and sexy but also gave me all the feels.</span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></div><p style="text-align: center;"><br /></p></div>Sharon Rosenthalhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12614928336778493826noreply@blogger.com0
