Love Her or Lose Her by Tessa BaileyHot & Hammered #2Contemporary RomanceJanuary 14, 2020 by AvonARC I love the second chance/marriage in trouble trope when it's done well.

I couldn't wait until my ARC hit my Kindle. This was a very enjoyable read. I was hooked almost from the first word, but I couldn't tell if that Continue Reading

Kini’s Friday Kisses- Books by Kate Clayborn, Molly O’Keefe, and Sagan Morrow
A Day in the Death of Walter Zawislak by Molly O’Keefe, pubs 12/9. This book is not a romance but does contain a love story. The story is kind of a mash up of movies Meet Joe Black and A Christmas Carol with a little bit of On Top of the World by the Dixie Chicks thrown in. I don’t want to spoil it but it is an interesting story of a man looking back on his life and coming to grips with his self worth. It has the deep emotions that is Molly’s trademark. I really enjoyed it. It also included Continue Reading
Angela’s Tuesday Mini Reviews: Books by Nina Bocci and Lyssa Kay Adams
The Bromance Book Club by Lyssa Kay AdamsThe Bromance Book Club #1Contemporary RomanceNovember 5, 2019 by BerkleyARC This was a super cute, very original read.

This couple is married, with twin girls, and are also dealing with frequent separations due to Gavin's job as a MLB player. There is Continue Reading
