Only Love by Melanie Harlow

If you are looking for a cutesy, sweet read with little drama then this is the book for you. When looking for love in all the wrong places meets not looking for any love you know you will be into some back and forth and when one is going to push the other will surely pull.  Although, I liked the story line I just couldn't feel a connection between Stella or Ryan. I felt more of connection to granny and thoroughly enjoyed her antics and meddling. 

Ryan was aloof and seemed very shy with an obsession for sweets. Stella is the chatty therapist. The sweet girl with her heart on her sleeve. Although, I would loved a little more banter between the couple to help me feel more connected I thought they rounded out the story well. 

Hate Notes by Vi Keeland and Penelope Ward

If there is one thing I can appreciate in romance books it’s when the authors toss in some great banter with a lot of humor. I loved how Reed and Charlotte where constantly taking shots at each other to try and hide the fact that there were feelings involved. Penelope and Vi collaborated a heartfelt, humorous love story that had me enjoying both sides of the story.

Although, at times Reed was a tough one to crack I saw through his hardened heart and knew that once he let go he would go full force to make sure Charlotte was his. I was a bit surprised to find out what his issue was I’m not even going to lie I was expecting the opposite so much I had my made up that my theory was the only theory. Then you have Charlotte, she was so much fun to read, but at times annoying because I wanted her to play a little hard to get. I get it though, the story needed her to be that way it’s just always hard for me to read when the girl is so geared to cling barb after barb.

Cute, quick read that shows the talent of these two authors. I think they both bring so much to the table and I love when they have a guy who has been burned as you don’t read about it so much anymore.
