I saw this book announced last year and the blurb caught my attention. I eagerly awaited its arrival on Netgalley. I started following Abby on social media and was curious to know if the book would be as funny as she is online. In early 2019 I started seeing bloggers and bookstagrammers get ARCs and I waited patiently. I started to see 5 stars reviews for the book from big name publications and still I waited for a sign I might get the ARC. I also avoided all reviews of the book. Until one Continue Reading

Kini’s Friday Kisses
Now or Never by Victoria Denault Now or Never by Victoria Denault I have never read this author before but the blurb really caught my attention. I absolutely LOVE second chance romances. Add in the twist where the heroine, Winnie, broke the hero’s nose when they were teenagers and I was hooked. They reconnect after the heroine’s father dies and the heroine is wallowing in her grief at the family vacation cabin. The hero, Holden, is hired by Winnie’s brother to renovate the Continue Reading
Review: Three Little Kisses by Jenny Holiday
I think I have been hesitant to write about this book because I can't possibly formulate the appropriate words to tell you how incredibly good this book is. It was a fantastic close to a fantastic series. In previous books Gia didn't seem like she would be my favorite. Because I really love Jane. And adored Wendy. But Gia, oh man, Gia blew me away. She's lacking roots. She's struggling with her body. Struggled with who she is and where she fits it. She is a loyal friend. She is determined Continue Reading
Angela’s Monday Mornings
Happy Monday! What I read this week: Last Night with the Earl by Kelly Bowen The Devils of Dover #2 Historical Romance September 25, 2018 by Avon Favorite Quote: "Save your shiny armor and white horse for something better than my sensibilities." This was such a lovely romance. The hero, Eli Dawes, Earl of Rivers, rides off to war a cocky, young rake and returns home many years later a broken, wounded man. He would have rather disappeared and never returned at all, but when his Continue Reading

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
Review: One and Only by Jenny Holiday
One and Only by Jenny Holiday (Bridesmaids Behaving Badly #1) Publication Date: February 27, 2018 Contemporary Romance Forever Reviewed by Kini Favorite Quote: “I’m going to. I just need… a minute.” “For what?” To change his mind? Like hell. She was standing there, panties wet and nipples almost painfully tight, a caricature of sexual desire. She hadn’t confronted her big emotional block about casual sex only to have the proceedings derailed now. She pulled harder on his head and bounced Continue Reading

The Corner of Forever and Always by Lia Riley
The Corner of Forever and Always by Lia Riley Series: Everland, Georgia #2 Contemporary Romance September 26, 2017 Forever Reviewed by Kini Favorite Quote: “Fuck the necklace. You’re the magic.” This is the second in a series that takes place in a small town in Georgia. The town and its various residents are pretty much characters in their own right. I think that small town can be run the risk of being too cutesy or too much time spent on the other inhabitants. This book had a few Continue Reading
