***4 Stars*** Talk about starting off with a bang and not slowing down for anything until the very end.  This baby was a quick read chock full of smexy good times, a good dose of suspense and a whole new crew I want to get to know a whole lot better! Ellie and Killian. I loved these two. Ellie is strong, sassy and loyal. Once she’s in, she’s all in. Killian definitely has that alpha AF/caveman thing going on, but combined with a steel core of honor and a bluntness that makes it difficult to do anything but believe every word he said, well it made him kind of irresistible. Their journey to their HEA may have been a long time coming, but once it started, things progressed quickly. For the most part, I’m good with how everything worked out between them because the chemistry between them was undeniable, but things happened quickly and kinda left me spinning even when I liked how everything worked out in the end. This was a quick read, I finished it in an hour oh so, but it ...

“Heartfelt, hilarious, with a dash of angst...Karla Sorensen shines with the perfect feel-good read!” --Author Catherine Cowles Batter of Wits, an all-new funny and heartwarming romance from Karla Sorensen, is LIVE! Hate at first sight couldn’t possibly exist, right? That’s what Grace Buchanan thought, before her useless car stranded her on the side of a deserted road just inside the Green Valley city limits. When Tucker Haywood—tall and handsome and full of southern charm— shows up to help, her reaction to him is the strongest thing she’s ever felt in her life, and it makes no freaking sense. It doesn’t make much sense to Tucker either. Not why she hates him, or why he finds her so intriguing. He knows well enough that Grace is moving to Green Valley for a fresh start, not to distract him when he’s got no room for something like her in his life. The complications between them are endless, but that doesn’t stop her definitely not love-at-first-sight feelings from chan...

"If I've said it once, I've said it a million times--Melanie Harlow is the quintessential romance author." -- Laurelin Paige, New York Times bestselling author Unforgettable, an all-new small town second chance romance from USA Today bestselling author Melanie Harlow, is releasing May 4th, and we have the gorgeous cover! Back then, I had it all. Wicked fastball. Killer instinct. Cocky grin. Full package. (And believe me, I knew how to score.) My senior year, I was a first round draft pick with a two-million-dollar signing bonus. Before I could even legally buy myself a beer, I made my Major League debut. Point is, I was invincible. Until one day I wasn’t. After tanking my career—during the World Series, no less—the last thing I want to do is return to my hometown, where every jerk in a ball cap has an opinion about what went wrong with my arm. So when my sister drags me back to town for her wedding, I vow to get in and out of there as...

Title: Crazy Beautiful Author: Jessica Prince Series: Redemption Genre: Contemporary Romance Release Date: May 11 Our marriage was only supposed to be a business transaction… Until I went and fell for my wife. Their marriage was nothing more than a business transaction. Or at least that was what they told themselves. Poppy Weston had been burned enough times by undeserving men to know her heart was best left under lock and key. She was content with her life, even with the lack of romance. Then Jase Hyland walked into Redbud Inn and offered her something she couldn’t refuse. In return, all she had to do was marry him. Jase had seen firsthand the kind of damage relationships caused, and he wanted nothing to do with it. He’d been taught from a young age that the only things that should matter to a man were wealth and power. However, all it took was a series of events to lead him down a path he never expected to travel. It was supposed to be simple. No fee...

***4 Stars*** This was a fun read. Which is a little strange to write down considering this is an MC romance, but it really was. I found myself grinning more often than not and being more than happy to get lost in Abbie and Temper’s unique journey to their HEA. I loved Abbie and Temper. Abbie is all kinds of sweet and sassy, even when she’s feeling all kinds of awkward. I loved watching her truly come into her own and really take charge of what she wanted her future to look like. Temper surprised me, but in a good way. He is all kinds of alpha, he has to be as Prez, but I loved getting to know the heart of the man beneath the title and seeing just how golden his heart was. Their journey to their HEA was all kinds of fun. It is a strange mix of slow burn/insta, no gonna lie, but it worked for me considering all that was tossed their way in a short amount of time. but  I loved their bantering and didn’t play any mind games with each other. The angst was low, which I appre...
