Review: Four Weddings and a Duke by Michelle McLean

 Synopsis As the middle—and least marriageable—sister in a bevy of swans, Lavinia Wynnburn is quite content being the odd duck out. This way, she’s free to commit social faux pas without anyone much noticing. Until the Duke of Beaubrooke turns up the morning after a ball, asking for her  hand  in marriage. Alexander Reddington doesn’t particularly care for social niceties, nor is he particularly good at them. But now that the spare has become the heir, he must marry...and soon. When he stumbles into the same corner as a socially awkward wallflower, he knows he’s found the perfect wife: one who won’t bother him to attend every simpering event of the season. Only, Alexander’s shy and pretty new wife is finding her new position surprisingly exciting and keeps accepting every invitation that flutters past their door. And worse luck, he might even be  falling  for her. Now he must hide the truth about why he  really  proposed…before his unexpectedly happy m...

Review: Breaking all the Rules by Amy Andrews

  Synopsis Sometimes you gotta toss your whole life into a burning dumpster to find what’s most important... Beatrice Archer has always done everything she’s supposed to —worked her ass off, ignored her non-existent personal life, and kept her mouth shut. Now she’s over it. The rat race, respectability…the underwire bras. She’s taking her life back. Starting with moving to Nowhere, Colorado to live life on her own terms. Now Bea gives exactly zero forks. Beer for breakfast. Sugar for everything else. Baggy sweats and soft cotton undies FTW. Then a much younger and delightfully attractive cop is called to deal with her flagrant disregard for appropriate clothing outside the local diner (some folks just don’t appreciate bunny slippers) and Bea realizes there’s something missing from her little decathlon of decadence…and he might be the guy to help her out. When it comes to breaking rules, Officer Austin Cooper is surprisingly eager to assist. He’s charming, a little bit cowboy, and a...

Review: The Dating Dilemma (Mile High Firefighters #2) by Mariah Ankenman

Synopsis Lexi’s Reminders * Work. * Don’t think about your birthday tomorrow. Or debt, your crappy apartment, and nonexistent social life. * Re-stock wine and ice cream because that’s coming. * Die in a raging blaze of humiliation when the super-hot and very delicious fireman waiting in your office is not in fact the strip-o-gram birthday present you suspected. * Reschedule the fire safety inspection you 100 percent failed because of said humiliation. * Figure out how you, in fact, agreed to fake dating Mr. Not a Strip-O-Gram Fireman to help him with a bet. * Oh yeah, and do not fall for this guy. Seriously, they call him One Night O’Neil. Red flags all over the place. * Remember, this is fake dating, even though his very talented, very real lips are doing some sexy things you definitely like. * Realize bending one tiny rule can’t be that bad, can it? * Except bend too far, and something breaks. Something you can’t get back. Add to Goodreads Shelf Review It’s a fun, lighthearted, and a...

Review: Not Seeking Mr. Right by Natasha Moore

Synopsis Ginny Colburn can’t believe she’s been dumped by her wedding date at the reception. And everybody knows it. So when a cute, younger man serving champagne to the guests flirts with her, she decides to really give the guests something to talk about and flirts back. But the incredible one-night stand gives her more than great memories. A few weeks later, she’s got a positive pregnancy test and the task of having to tell a guy half her age, “Congratulations, you’re a dad.” Only he doesn’t react the way she thinks he will at all... Add to Goodreads Shelf Review It's a sweet and heartwarming romantic comedy that I thoroughly enjoyed reading. It's a feel-good kind of book that is a perfect read if you're feeling blue for any reason. Both the characters are cute in their own way. Ginny is seething over being dumped after her boyfriend cheat for who-know-how long. And Josh is working many jobs as he tries to find the one job he actually wants. He is much younger than Ginny ...

Review: I Hate You, Fuller James by Kelly Anne Blount

Synopsis I hate you, Fuller James. I hate your floppy hair and your lopsided grin and those laughing blue eyes that always seem to be laughing at  me . I hate that you’re the most popular guy in school and I’m still the girl who sneezed and spit out her retainer on someone at a middle school dance. It’s just such a cliché. I hate that I’m being forced to tutor you in English and keep it a secret from everyone. Because otherwise it might put our basketball team’s chances at winning State in jeopardy, and even though I hate you, I love basketball. I hate that it seems like you’re keeping a secret from me…and that the more time we spend together, the less I feel like I’m on solid ground. Because I’m starting to realize there’s so much more to you than meets the eye. Underneath it all, you’re real. But what I hate most is that I really don’t hate you at all.   add to Goodreads Shelf Review This book is adorable and I love both Wren and Fulle...

Review: Mismatched in Mayhem by L.E. Rico

Synopsis Welcome to Mayhem, Minnesota, with its sweater-wearing cats and ultra-competitive trivia nights. Where love really does conquer all...if you’ll let it. Walker O’Halloran is finally ready to shed her “wild child” persona. Bartending at her family’s pub, babysitting her adorable niece and nephews, and getting her degree during the day. What she doesn’t do is date--or even think about dating. Ever. Until he walks into her bar, looking like a former Mr. Quarterback of the Football Team and Student Council President all rolled into one. No, thank you. Mason Stevens has a secret—and it prevents him from knowing if someone is truly interested in him, or just what he can do for them. Until he meets Walker. She’s the first person in ages who doesn’t recognize him, and her grouchy attitude feels like the greatest challenge of his life. And he’s ready for it. But the more time they spend together, the more he’s desperate to come clean—it’s just never the right time. Until the papar...

Review: Too Hard to Resist by Robin Bielman

Synopsis One rookie assistant + one demanding executive = flirting that is too hot to handle. Have you ever wished for the perfect job? Me, too. So when I land a temporary gig with a worthwhile and exemplary startup, I'm determined to make it permanent. That my boss is the gorgeous, clever Elliot Sax is nothing I can't handle. We may steal glances at each other and straddle the line of playing it safe, but our partnership is too important for complications. Not to mention workplace hookups are against the rules. But when our attraction flames hotter, our best efforts are put to the test. I never imagined having to fight my feelings for him on a daily basis and keeping my hands to myself is absolutely killing me. Until I can't. Until we can't. And what's at stake becomes more than our jobs. What's at risk is our hearts. Add to Goodreads Shelf Review It's a great read, I loved the story. It's well-written and has amazing characters, I liked al...
