I Flipping Love You by Helena Hunting May 29. Amazon l Goodreads. I’m really looking forward to this one. The previous two in this series (all stand alones) has that Helena Hunting humor, but it’s reeled in a bit. It’s not quite as raunchy and over the top and this series is realllllly working for me.

How to Marry a Werewolf by Gail Carriger May 13. Amazon l Goodreads. Have you guys read Gail Carriger? If you haven’t, you are missing out. She writes quirky, smart, funny characters who are so engaging. I can’t wait for this one.

Burning Up by Jennifer Blackwood May 8. Goodreads l Amazon  I enjoy this author’s voice and this is the start of a new series. Look for a review soon.

Making Up by Lucy Parker May 28. Amazon l Goodreads. Lucy Parker writes the most adorable characters!!! This book gives us a circus artist heroine and a “disgraced wizard of special effects” hero. Yassssssss.

Cheeky King by Nana Malone April 30. Amazon l Goodreads I really liked Cheeky Royal and Cheeky King is the conclusion to this duology. I need to see if the hero and heroine will get their HEA!! ;)

Kini:

Binding Law by Micah Persell, May 14 Amazon l Goodreads
The third and final, I think, in a series that features gigolos as heroes. I am anxious to see how this one works. The one I read earlier this year was super sexy and the h/h had a great connection. I hope the same for this.

The Voyeur and the Vet by LH Cosway and Penny Reid, May 15ish Goodreads
The previous books in this series have been a lot of fun and typically feature a slightly mismatched pair.

Grumpy Fake Boyfriend by Jackie Lau, May 22 Amazon l Goodreads
Two things I love- grumpy hero and fake relationship. This book has a funny blurb and I look forward to reading it.

From Twinkle, With Love by Sandhya Menon, May 22 Amazon l Goodreads
I enjoyed When Dimple Met Rishi last year. I hardly ever read YA, but I liked the first one so much, I want to read this one too.

One Night Wife by Ainslie Paton, May 28  Goodreads
I love Ainslie’s voice. Described as a little Pygmalion and a lot of fake relationship, by way of bad boy; good girl and different worlds collide. I am all over this book.

Screwed by Kelly Jamieson, May 28 Amazon l Goodreads
Her new book features unrequited love, aka the hero has been pining for the heroine while she was married to someone else. I usually love this trope so I am excited to see how Jamieson handles it.

Making Up by Lucy Parker, May 28 Amazon l Goodreads
The first two in this series were great so I have high hopes for this one. And the cover is beautiful.

Hooked on You by Kate Meader, May 29 Amazon l Goodreads
The final book in the series features the last sister, Violet and her grumpy, single dad hero. I really liked books one and two in this series and I am anxious to see Violet get her HEA.
