Unfortunately Yours by Tessa BaileyA Vine Mess #2Contemporary RomanceJune 6, 2023- AvonARC Review by Angela I didn't love the first book in the series, Secretly Yours, neither the pacing nor the romance really worked for me and it took forever to finish. I kind of debated on whether I should continue with this duology, but ultimately decided I needed to know how the hate/lust relationship between the other Vos sibling and her retired Navy Seal panned out. I'm glad I did because this Continue Reading

Review: Secretly Yours by Tessa Bailey
Secretly Yours by Tessa BaileyA Vine Mess #1Contemporary RomanceFebruary 7, 2023- Avon ARC Review by Angela I started and stopped this book multiple times before I finally finished it after the news from Harpercollins Union that they had reached an agreement and it was okay to post reviews for their books again. I wanted this to have the same magic as It Happened One Summer and Hook, Line, and Sinker- which were both 5-star, A+ reads for me. Alas, while I did enjoy this book and plan Continue Reading

Review: My Killer Vacation by Tessa Bailey
My Killer Vacation by Tessa BaileyContemporary RomanceJune 6, 2022Self-Published Review by Iby I am admittedly a Tessa Bailey fan, especially her newer works. I love the banter and the steam - she has great dynamics between her main characters, and her books tend to be lighthearted and eminently enjoyable. When she said she was writing a murder mystery romance, I knew that I’d be all-in. The set-up: Careful, cautious second-grade teacher Taylor has saved for years to take a vacation in Continue Reading
Review: Hook, Line, and Sinker by Tessa Bailey
Hook, Line, and Sinker by Tessa BaileyBellinger Sisters #2Contemporary Romance3/1/2022, by Avon Review by Angela It Happened One Summer was one of my favorite books last year. When I tell you that I wanted Fox and Hannah's book desperately I'm not exaggerating. I would have done pretty much anything for an early copy. Which is why when it landed on my Kindle in October I dropped everything to read. And I was not disappointed. This is very much a determined bachelor bad boy turned Continue Reading

Jen’s Mini’s: Kingdom of the Cursed by Kerri Maniscalco, Runaway Girl by Tessa Bailey, and The Idea of You by Robinne Lee
I loved all of these books, let’s get started. First up…the newest book release, Kingdom of the Cursed by Kerri Maniscalco is book two in the Kingdom of the Wicked series. Book one was terrific, book two…even better!! I listened to both books. The narrator is excellent and it even features some spooky effects and music at key moments, too. They’re both a lot of fun! The romance between Wrath and Emilia is taken up several notches with the latest installment. Emilia is now in the Continue Reading
Review: Window Shopping by Tessa Bailey
Window Shopping by Tessa BaileyHoliday Contemporary RomanceOctober 19, 2021 Self Published Review by Angela First, let me say that I'm not usually a holiday romance reader. I have read them, they just aren't something I read a lot of. But when Tessa Bailey, the queen of the dirty talking hero, says she has a Ted Lasso-inspired, grumpy/sunshine, opposites attract holiday romance... I just can't help myself. I really can't. I don't have the willpower y'all. And I'm really glad I gave in Continue Reading

Jen’s Mini-Reviews: Reviews for Books by Keri Lake, Holly Black, Katee Robert, Emily Henry, Tessa Bailey, and Sierra Simone
I’ve read, or listened to, so many books lately. Some old, some new, some repeats from previous reviewers. Here’s a quick rundown of my favorites in the form of speed reviews. It’s like a speed dating event but less awkward. Master of Salt and Bones by Keri Lake I’m going to call this a B to B+ for me. Super dark read. The H is mysterious, misunderstood, and lives in a huge monstrosity of a mansion. He’s reclusive, a bit of an urban legend to the neighboring town, and was raised by Continue Reading
