***5 ‘Eye of the Storm’ Stars*** I’ve thoroughly enjoyed the first two books in this series, but this one may just be my favorite and it all has to do with Kingston and Queenie. These two had me grinning like a loon for almost the entire book (only ‘almost’ because there are some intense moments) but overall, I loved watching these two total opposites collide and become everything to each other. Queenie is fiesty. She’s all kinds of sassy, sweet and compassionate. She isn’t blind to her faults, and though her insecurities can wreak havoc on her confidence, she definitely owns all that she is. Kingston is a true boy scout. OMG, his need to toe the line is insane. But that’s what ended up totally endearing me to him. He is simply a good man, but does have a nice little dose of wild when the time is right. Their journey to their HEA was a lot of fun. They are opposites in a lot of ways, but they flowed well together, it felt like they helped to fill in the other’s missing piec...

***4 Stars*** I wanted Lincoln and I got Lincoln ~ and dear lord was he all kinds of goodness But… I also got a whole lot more than I expected in Wren and I loved every moment of their journey! I loved Lincoln and Wren. Lincoln is a lovable grump. He is the black sheep of the family, or at least his immediate family, and revels in it. He is comfortable in his own skin and has a genuinely good heart. Wren is a force to be reckoned with. She knows when to lay down the law and take crap from no one, but she also knows when to be gentle. That mix, combined with a quick wit and a good heart made her a lot of fun to get to know. Wren and Lincoln’s journey definitely started off on an interesting foot and had it’s bumps in the road, but I loved watching them get to know each other and come to realize how much they truly liked who the other person was at their very core. Their bantering/snark/poking was a lot of fun and the smexy was HAWT and I loved where then found themselves...

***4.5 ‘I’d Rather Have You Than Game’ Stars*** The swoons were so real in this one. So were the laughs and the need to Gibbs Smack a few people and...gut a few with a spoon... But it was the swoons that made my heart all KINDS of twitterpated and wishing I had a Griffin of my own. Griffin pretty much owned me from the minute he stepped into Cosy’s place of employment. In that one moment I saw the man he was.Vulnerable, charming, a little awkward, but also had the kind of confidence that made you want to get closer and when he let his alpha side out to play? Well, the man was seriously lethal. And then there is Cosy. She is a spitfire with a huge heart  and an enigma since she’s something of an organized free spirit. I know, you’re probably going huh? But trust me, as you get to know her, you’ll understand. As for their journey to their HEA. It was an interesting one, but I thoroughly enjoyed watching them get closer and finding that, despite the fact they are opposite...

The next book set in Helena Hunting hilarious and sexy world of Shacking Up! For the last few years, Lincoln Moorehead has been working for non-profit organizations around the world. When his father suddenly passes away, as the eldest son, Lincoln reluctantly returns home to New York City to inherit the family business--much to the chagrin of his younger brother, Armstrong. What he doesn’t expect is that he’s been assigned a handler, a woman who he finds extremely sexy but frustratingly annoying. Wren Sterling has a goal: to start her own children’s charity in honor of her sibling that died when they were young. But she lacks two important things: the money and the connections. So when Frederick and Gwendolyn Moorehead hired her as a “handler” to deal with their youngest son’s various indiscretions, she accepted, no questions asked. With Frederick’s sudden death and Lincoln’s return, Gwendolyn makes her a new offer: “handle” both of her sons short term, and she would dou...

***4 ‘Chemistry Trumps Compatibility’ Stars*** No THAT was definitely an interesting way to start things off with Rian and Pierce, but it definitely hooked me and had me needing to see how everything played out for Rian and Pierce, and let me tell you there was a lot of feels going on with this one. From eye rolling to swooning to a few sniffles and some smexy and awkward moments, I Flipping Love You had everything I love in a romcom and more. Rian, I loved this girl, I did, but damn did she carry a lot of baggage on her shoulders. Not that I could blame her. The rug was pulled out from underneath her and the fallout was harsh. But she’s a fighter and she definitely pulled herself up and put on her shit kickers. She’s sassy, snarky and has a tendency to react and speak before truly thinking things through, but her loyalty and her golden heart balanced things out...most of the time. Pierce was a lot of fun, even if there were moments where I wanted to Gibbs smack him. Tall,...

***4.5 ‘Anarchy Amie, Oh God and Tickle Trunk’ Stars*** I KNEW IT! I KNEW IT! I KNEW IT! Sorry. I had to get that out and now that I have, let me explain. Upon first meeting Amalie and Armstrong in Shacking Up I had that gut feeling that something hinky, and just wrong, was going on because there could be no way ‘that’ Amalie was Ruby’s bestie. NO. FUCKING. WAY. and did hope that they’d break up before the book ended, I know horrible, horrible romance reader, but seriously.... When it didn’t happen I resigned myself to the fact that they’d be in fictional matrimonial hell forever because there was no indication at that time Shacking Up would be a part of a series. So imagine my elation when Hooking Up was announced and the blurb came out??? Yes. I squeed and did a happy dance. And let me tell you. Amie and Lex are addicting! There journey brought out all the feels. The swoons and heart twitterpations were real, the smexy was panty incinerating, the need to grab a sp...
