Review: Play for Me by Libby Hubscher

June 22, 2023 by Angela Leave a Comment

Play for Me by Libby HubscherContemporary RomanceJune 20, 2023- BerkleyARC Review by Angela I've come to really enjoy this author's books. While the first two were more women's fiction and lighter on the actual romance, this book really focuses on the relationship between Sophie and Jonas. When Play for Me opens Sophie has just been let go from her job as head athletic trainer for the Boston Red Sox after pulling a pitcher from game 7 of the World Series. Now all of Boston blames Continue Reading

Review: Book Boyfriend by Kris Ripper

April 27, 2022 by Kate H. Leave a Comment

Book Boyfriend by Kris RipperLGBTQIA Contemporary RomanceCarina Adores PressApril 26, 2022 by Kate H. I had to adjust my expectations a lot as I read Book Boyfriend, and I expect most readers may not have the patience.  Written as an inner monologue with all the verbal habits, like “like” and “you know” intact, it tells the story of PK or Preston Kinglsey Harrington III.  Like many “the thirds” he has the benefit of generational wealth, and he lives in a New York apartment with a Continue Reading

Review: If You Ask Me by Libby Hubscher

March 10, 2022 by Angela 1 Comment

If You Ask Me by Libby HubscherContemporary Romance/WFMarch 8, 2022, by Berkley Review by Angela Before I even get into the review, it must be said that if you are picking up this book based on the cover you will be either be sorely disappointed or super surprised (possibly both) by the content. This is absolutely not a romantic comedy in any, way, shape, or form. I would even go so far to say that this isn't even really a contemporary romance, although there is a romantic element within Continue Reading

Review: Meet Me in Paradise by Libby Hubscher

March 24, 2021 by Angela 5 Comments

Meet Me in Paradise by Libby HubscherContemporary Romance/ WFMarch 23, 2021, by BerkleyReviewed by Angela Content Warnings: Cancer, death, grief I was not prepared for this book. Not at all. I went into Meet Me in Paradise thinking I was getting a contemporary romance with maybe some laughs and fun times set in a lovely tropical location. What I got was a deep, emotional story full of love, and sacrifice, and a woman's journey through grief to find herself on the other side. Meet Continue Reading

Smexy’s March TBR

March 1, 2021 by Angela 9 Comments

Angela: Half of these books I've already read because it's been a hard couple of weeks and I needed comfort. It's also my birthday month and I expect my one-clicking to be out of control. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME! An Unexpected Peril (Veronica Speedwell #6) by Deanna Raybourn 3/2 Historical Mystery- Yep, already read it. This was my first read of this year because I love Veronica and Stoker and I couldn't help myself. This was another great installment in one of my favorite series. Review to Continue Reading
