Just One Year by Penelope Ward









I love me some Penelope Ward. I'm usually the first in line when a book drops, but this one for me, just lacked in keeping me engaged. I wanted to love Caleb and Teagan but it seemed like by the time I started getting into and them they went their separate ways.

I can say I did enjoy them both separately. I thought Teagan in the beginning was cold and untouchable, but as she warmed up and opened up I found she was actually strong and had the potential to love beyond measure. I loved that she found herself and was able to be strong for the people she considered family. I would've loved to get to dive into Caleb's life and head just a little bit more. The time when he was away, it just seemed like so much happened and we didn't get to be part of that journey. I think if we had the opportunity to watch him learn and grow and figure out his issues I would have felt a lot closer.

I think we all go through this as reader. I love Ms. Ward and her writing will always be at the top of my list. She has this way to make you laugh with her words and to make you feel like you are taking the journey with her characters.





Fake It Til You Meagan Brandy



Its funny I started this book because I love this author. Her words just pull me in and I become addicted with every page I turn. This book started out a little different. I have to say I wasn't instantly enamored with it as I usually am with books from this author. It took a little time for me, but I can tell you this...once your in this book will take over. I found myself consumed with anything that resolved around Nico and Demi. They were an addiction that I needed to follow through with.

Nico might have been a man of few words, but when he spoke you listened. You knew there was something deeper going on with him and Demi. She might have not known it, but when Nico decided to go after something he did it with some gusto. It was hard to tell if he was in it for the win or just to be a guy. Trust me when I say there was plenty of times I hated him. I wanted him to prove himself and several times I was let down and with that said when he makes a comeback its with a vengeance.

Its funny because usually I pay no attention to the female in the book, but Demi at times had me screaming at her. To open her eyes and realize what was right in front of her. I love the fact that she was a little distrustful, but when Nico the star of everything has his eyes on you its time to open up a little and let go of all the things that hold you back.

As you can see Ms. Brandy has a way to make you entwine yourself with her words. I didn't feel like I was reading a book I felt like I was living it. Her words seduce your eyes to the pages all the while you are trying to figure out how the book is going to end.

Beauty and the Badge by Ella Fox




I have said it a million times it seems. If you are looking for a true romance book that the focus is all about the couple, their story and true love then look no further than Ella Fox. She takes a story and turns it into such a sweet, delicate story that you devour in one sitting. Toss in the fact that its a sheriff manly man who knows what he wants when he wants it...well I was sold from page one.

Ashley is the sweet the girl that everyone loves. That person that other people just gravitate too. Even reading the story I liked her instantly. She knew what she wanted and she went for it. Tyler is the guy you love to drool all over your kindle because he is all man and knows how to use it. (WINK WINK)
He's protective and caring and falls hard and fast...which lets be honest the big tough guys are always the best to watch fall.

I can't stress enough that if you haven't read an Ella Fox book. then stop waiting and pick one up. You cant go wrong with any of them, but if a badass cop is your thing then I suggest this one to start with.

The Lie by Callie Rose






I couldn’t wait for this book. There is something about a book ending on a cliffhanger that makes you love and hate the anticipation of the next book. The story picks up with Harlow hurt and pissed at the boys. The Lie was a perfect name because its pretty much what tore the relationship apart and what is keeping it together at the same time. I like that Harlow is meek and she holds her ground. She doesn’t take any shit from the guys.

Lincoln and Harlow dance around hate and love, but Lincoln is determined to protect Harlow even if she doesn’t see it. There is just something about all of their dynamics that really made me enjoy all the characters. They each brought something to the story that made them stand out and not fall to the side. I can’t wait for book 3 to drop so I can see what the hell is going to happen and if Harlow is right about the killer. Not to mention there is one scene which I was secretly waiting for that is hawt like hawt hawt.


Gage by Ella Fox and Rochelle Paige





Short, sweet and the perfect read for any occasion. If you are looking for a drama free read about two people with instant chemistry about two people who have a relationship that doesn’t consist of constant splits this is the book for you. Reads like this are the foundation for romance readers everywhere. You get the Morgan and Gage the whole book. You get to discover them as a couple and you can feel their connection shooting from the pages.

The meet for me can either make or break a book for me. To me that is the moment in a book that makes me fall in love with the couple individually and MS. Fox and Ms. Paige set this one up perfectly. I needed to know where the hostility was coming from so I was in 100% at this point. I’m not sure what I will need to do to get ahold of Allie and Vaughn but, I’m willing to do it just sayin.

The Help by Callie Rose




I have been on such a bully read kick that I feel like I should probably go meetings and now it’s just not bully reads its reverse harem bully reads. I know I know. When one bully isn’t enough let’s find 4 because we know by the end of the book she’s going to be doing them all. I didn’t even read the blurb for this book I just looked at the star rating and read it was RH and thought why the hell not.

Let me tell you I was not disappointed. Callie Rose can write and she makes damn sure she has your attention the whole story. I loved how this was just a little bit of different story line and that there were twists and turn in the book. I love those gut-clenching moments when you know someone messed up and you want to live in that moment of pain, but you also can’t wait to keep reading to see how they fix their fuck ups.

I loved Lincoln right from the start. He might have been an asshole but I knew when the time for falling came he would go down hard. The other guys were no different. Each one had a different personality.

Teardrop Shop by Tijan



Let me just start out saying that I'm one of Tijan's biggest fans. I have loved her since her early writing and every book just seems to get stronger and stronger. When I first started to read this one I was not following along. Charlie and her questions seemed a bit much for me and it seemed like people were getting thrown in and I couldn't keep up. I just kept telling myself that its Tijan keep reading. So I did. Thank Freaking God I did because to say this book didnt end up being one of my best in 2019 would be a lie.

It's not to often I finish a book and instantly flip back through to read my favorite scenes but with Reese and Charlie I just needed to live it one more time. Charlie was awkward and at times a bit confusing and other times she was freaking hilarious. Reese was all patience and strength and seemed to know exactly what he wanted. Watching these two dance the dance was what made this book unique.
