I didn't have any review books for this week so I decided to take a look at my Kindle TBR and KU lists and see what has been languishing unread for awhile. I couldn't decide what of my Kindle Unlimited books to read so I kind of closed my eyes and randomly picked. My finger landed on Tamed by the Troll by Tracy Lauren (The Perished Woods #1). This is a new to me author and I think I added it to my KU because an author on social media recommended. Although I don't remember who that author Continue Reading
Sheena’s Ranty Read: The Kissing Game by Marie Harte
The Kissing Game by Marie Harte Feb 4th I do not like this, Sam-I-Am, I do not like this in a bed or on the couch or on a train. I do not like this anywhere. Oy! This was no bueno. I blame the blurb. It made me promises. It sold me a bill of goods and I curled up with this novel, ready to COLLECT! Hard working heroine with entrepreneurial spirit and a romantic at heart- Why, yes, tell me more. Tall, dark & handsome buttoned up, emotionally blocked hero who secretly pines after Continue Reading
Review: Regretting You by Colleen Hoover
This is the second book I’ve read by Hoover. When I saw the description for this book I felt compelled to read it. I enjoy stories centered around a mother and daughter trying to figure things out. Add in some tragedy and I’m all for it. I have never really been drawn to Hoover’s books but I thought maybe this will be the that helps me understand her appeal to so many. Reader, this was not the one. This review will be spoilery so be forewarned. A big chunk of this review will be under a 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
Review: The Dating Charade by Melissa Ferguson
I am almost always sucked in by a cute cover and a moderately interesting blurb. This book has both. At least to me. Y’all know by now that I am almost always going to click on a book that mentions online dating. And this blurb mentions single parenting. I felt like I had to read it. Then I noticed it was published by Harlequin’s Christian Printing imprint. I debated not reading it, but I decided to give it a go. I watch plenty of Hallmark movies that kind of dance around faith/religion. I Continue Reading
Angela’s Tuesday ARC Reviews: Books by K. Eason, Sharon Lynn Fisher, and Sarah Smith
How Rory Thorne Destroyed the Multiverse by K. EasonThe Thorne Chronicles #1Science Fiction/ FantasyOctober 8, 2019 by DAWARC I started this while on a plane flight between Phoenix and Las Vegas, and was so intrigued right from the start that I was annoyed that my flight only lasted about an hour. I wasn't able to get back to it until my later flight from Las Vegas to Houston, but once I fell back into the story I couldn't stop reading. How Rory Thorne Destroyed the Multiverse is a YA/NA Continue Reading
Kini’s Friday Kisses

CW: grief, emotional abuse by an intimate partner & parent. The heroine, Evvie like Chevy, is a widow but she is not Continue Reading

Someone I’m not.

Kini’s Friday Kisses
I finished Faking It by Jennifer Crusie and it was everything I needed it to be. Fast paced dialogue, zany characters, an excellent cast of characters, and just enough poor babys. I love the bad sex, or rather I should call it uncompleted sex. Crusie does this often in her books and I am always here for it. There are a few things in the story that are a bit dated, but overall holds up well. Grade: AGoodreads l Amazon Several of the Smexy ladies have read Intercepted by Alexa Martin and Continue Reading
Review: All the Way by Kristen Proby
All The Way by Kristen Proby (Romancing Manhattan #1)Contemporary RomanceReleased: August 21, 2018William Morrow Paperbacks I’ve wanted to read Proby for a while as I’ve always heard good things. As this was a first book in a new series, I thought I’d get in at the beginning, rather than playing catch up with some of her older works. The first thing I do when I sit to write a review is to re-read what I’ve highlighted and any notes that I made while reading. Sometimes, I open that feature Continue Reading
