Angela’s Monday Morning Reflections- 8/13
Happy Monday y'all, hope everyone had a wonderful weekend! What I read this week: To See the Sun by Kelly JensenM/M Sci/Fi RomanceAugust 13, 2018 by Riptide Favorite Quote: "I want to show you everything. One day, I'm going to show you everything." This is probably one of the most low-key science fiction romances I've ever read. I anticipated a whole lot of angsty conflict after reading the first chapter, but.. there really wasn't too much. The Continue Reading

SALE ALERT!! Elle Kennedy’s The Chase is on SALE for Limited Time
The Chase (Briar U, #1) by Elle Kennedy Contemporary Romance/NA August 6, 2018 Berkley Summary Everyone says opposites attract. And they must be right because there’s no logical reason why I’m so drawn to Colin Fitzgerald. I don’t usually go for tattoo-covered, video-gaming, hockey-playing nerd-jocks who think I’m flighty and superficial. His narrow view of me is the first strike against him. It doesn’t help that he’s buddy-buddy with my brother. And that his best friend has a Continue Reading
Helyce’s Thursday Thoughts & Things
Hello! So, last week my family and I ventured north for our annual camping (glamping more like with showers and flushing toilets) trip at a little lake with a group of people who we’ve been doing this little trip with for the last 6 years. The original group was huge-like 35 families and we’d pretty much take over this place; but as kids got older, that group has dwindled down to about 10 families. My kids love the lake, so we’ve stuck it out over the years for them. This year was fun but not Continue Reading

I’m not here to torment you with red tape.” “I’m not tormented.” “You sound tormented. You look tormented. You—” “I’m not tormented!” Pause. “Let me put it a different way.” “Fuck!” If you enjoy friends to lovers romance, Getting Lucky is going to make quite an impression. The blurb was Continue Reading
Sheena’s Wistful/Wanton Wednesday and Sneak Peak!
*sings* Sweatpants, hair tied, chillin' with no make-up on. That's when you're the prettiest. I hope that you don't take it wrong... - Hip Hop/Pop juggernaut, Drake Sweatpants at Tiffanie’s was on my TBR list a couple of weeks ago and I'm so pleased I made time to read it. I was soooo intrigued with this novel when I saw the cover and title. I then read the blurb and was sold! When I started reading it and read the opening line. I was a goner. This book is all the funny, swoony and sexy Continue Reading
Mandi’s Mini Reviews
Surprise Baby, Second Chance by Therese Beharrie Released: July 26, 2018 Contemporary Romance Mills & Boon Reviewed by Mandi I love to read marriage in trouble tropes. To explore a couple already committed to one another, yet having emotional issues always sucks me in. But this one was a little too slow for me. Rosa left her husband four months before the book starts, without a single explanation. She has her reason (I don't want to spoil it since it doesn't mention specifics in the Continue Reading
Review: The Duke I Tempted by Scarlett Peckham
