Come Back Home Again by Jessica Prince

Do you love Kristen Ashley's book? The mystery and whodunnit of Mary Higgins Clark? This book had pieces of all of that and something that only Jessica Prince can bring to the table. This one had second chance romance, first love, murder mystery and friendships that whether they were new or old  are meant to stand the test of time. I really really loved this story. It won me over before I even started it...due to the fact you get glimpses of these two in book one.

Spoiler alert...Ms. Prince is one of my very favorite authors. I know I can always count on her to bring me a lovable, full of feels, all in romance. I absolutely loved it. The alpha, brunt demanding nature of  Hayes had me swooning from the get go...the tough exterior and beautiful soul of Temperance made me fall head over heels from her from chapter one. Here is another fact...I love trying to figure out who is who and who should be trusted or not and I TOTALLY figured out where this story was leading and STILL LOVED every second of it. Lose yourself in a Jessica Prince story today...any of her series will make you a fan like me, but this one is starting out STRONG and I can't wait to see what the line-up holds for us.

Kiss And Break Up by Ella Fields

If you love angst, YA, high school friends to more books YOU MUST READ THIS STORY! Even if you don't I think you should dive into this one. It held me completely by the reader balls...I couldn't stop reading, devouring this one in a matter of hours. I literally could not stop reading. Bathroom breaks be gone. Depends ON...check LOL!!

If I am being honest (and I like to think I usually am) the love affair with this book started when I first caught a glimpse of the cover. I fell in love...then I read the blurb and the infatuation grew...BUT then I read the book and I am a goner. All the feels...ranging from the "I wanna kick his ass" to "oh my goooooodness how sweet" to the occasional "swoooooooonnn" and back to "ragey stabby throwing the kindle at the wall" you completely feel them ALLLLLL...Ella Fields writing is ON POINT and the connection between these child hood friends is palpable. Will they-won't they-stomach in knots-anticipation butterflies-all the reasons why I love reading romance-CHECK.

Emotionally charged, beautifully written, first love story at it's finest. I can't recommend this one enough!!

The Girl In The Painting by Max Monroe

Omg I LOVE THIS BOOK!!!!! I devoured it and although I was completely happy with the turnout I still wanted there to be more. I didn’t want to say goodbye to these characters. The feels. I knew where this book was leading, but that never took away from me being completely taken in by every single twist and turn in the journey. I just lost myself in the journey that unfolded page after page.

Expectations of crazy hi-jinx and hilariously awkward meets come into mind when you think Max Monroe...this one did bring a smile here and there but it was more heartfelt and soul searching than what you might typically get from this duo. I loved every moment and cheered every new revelation that came out...totally enjoyed this one.

Heart Of The Devil by Meghan March

Wow. Wow. We have the finale of this amazing trilogy that I absolutely LOVED, and this one was the perfect ending to the complete craziness that unfolded during each installment. You have love, hate, revenge, forgiveness, life, death, betrayal and so much more. If I am being honest I am a bit over the trilogy concept BUT this one really did the job. It delivered in every way I like my stories to unfold and I was totally won over by every character I met and connected with. Ms. March hit a grand slam with this one and Jericho Forge won my favorite male lead from this author (sorry boys!) Indy and Forge slayed as the duo that would protect each other at any and every cost. We have a Winner folks!!

PS: It's so hard to write a review without giving anything away. You are better going in blind and totally experiencing the journey!

Irresistible by Melanie Harlow

Forbidden-ish, sweet, heart wrenching and smoking hot...the nanny with the single dad. The hot, always had a crush on single daddy...CHECK PLEASE.

Melanie Harlow has been an auto read author for me since her first book debuted and because of stories like this one I am a FANGIRL forever. lol This one checked all the boxes for me as a romance reader. Cute girl that wants to be MORE-CHECK...single dad that thinks he's out of her league-CHECK...cute girls that want these two to figure their shit out-CHECK and due to all these checks I absolutely adored this book. Fun, flirty, and addicting. Totally loved it...and such a bonus to be able to check in with past loves. GAH I am such a sucker for that! 

Space by Penny Reid

I loved everything about this book. My heart was stuck in my throat all through it, in the best of ways. The anticipation, the building up of will she-won’t he- the tension, all of it. Completely owned me. I am SO ready for the next story. Penny Reid is a quirky, nerdy girl, creator and word wielding savant and I’m a forever fan due to it. LOVE LOVE LOVE!!! 

Even after a week since closing my kindle when it wouldn't swipe anymore and the dreaded words THE END were blazing in front of me...I think of this story. GAH. Ms. Reid you slay at these little perfect morsels of words that keep us salivating for more. It's a blessing and a curse. LOL the curse being I WANT TIME NOW...I may even be crying a smidge. Tears of anticipation and WANT. Read this series.  

Make Me Bad by R.S. Grey

At 42% I fell hard...I am completely and utterly in love with...Madison. My heart soars and breaks for her with every word. Her strength and naivety strike me to the cord. She is simply, quiet perfection that I want to protect and send flying at the same time. I just adore her. Ben is so similar to her in a more manufactured way, his thoughts are aligned with the Maddie I love but his exterior doesn't show the pain. I am screaming at my kindle (right now, I literally had to stop reading to write this) that they just need to tell each other who they really are, but that would end the book and I am NOT ready for that. SO I read on....

I have SO much love for this adorable story. It fed my romance loving heart. R.S. Grey has a knack for writing words that weave themselves right into the fabric of my soul. Simple. Perfect. All the while connecting me to these sweet, comfort seeking creatures as if they are friends that I know...not fictional characters that I just want to know. Bravo once again Ms. Grey.

Signed,

Fan for life...
