It Takes Two by Jenny Holiday Bridesmaids Behaving Badly, #2 Contemporary Romance June 26, 2018 Forever Reviewed by Kini Favorite Quote: “Oh, I saw that in the store where I bought the condoms, and I wanted to… give you something,” Noah said like it was no big deal. He chuckled in a way that might have bordered on self-deprecating. “Something besides condoms.” Oh, shit. She was past the point of no return. She burst into tears. Which of course brought him to her side in a flash. Damn Continue Reading
Helyce’s Thursday Thoughts
Helyce’s Thursday Thoughts You know when you read a blurb for a new book and it sounds interesting? Maybe it has an interesting premise--something different from the books you’ve previously read.

Well that didn’t happen to me this week. I chose two books recently that I thought were kind of out there, and I Continue Reading

The Girl in the Moss by Loreth Anne White (Angie Pallorino #3) Romantic Suspense June 12, 2018 Montlake Romance Favorite quote: We all tell lies. We all have secrets. A secret can own a person.

Helyce’s Thursday Thoughts – Believe The Kiss Quotient Hype!
The Kiss Quotient by Helen Hoang Contemporary Romance Release date: June 5, 2018 There is a lot of buzz around the release of The Kiss Quotient and in my opinion, it’s well deserved. I was so excited to have the opportunity to read an early copy of this very much-anticipated debut novel by Helen Hoang. I flew through the first read and then picked it up again a few weeks later to read slower and absorb it. I struggle with reviews for books I love. I worry about saying too much, so I Continue Reading
