Release Day & Review: Summer in Napa by Marina Adair

Release Day & Review: Summer in Napa by Marina Adair

May 14, 2013 1 Comment Christy

My thoughts… Summer is Napa is the second book in the St. Helena Vineyard Series. I loved it! Marco aka Marc is the towns player. He sleeps with a woman and then it’s on to the next conquest. He’s had a thing for Alexis aka Lexi since they were kids, but never let his feelings be known because she was in a relationship with his best friend Jeff. When Lexi returns to St. Helena she’s […]

My thoughts… A quick read, one that can be read in one sitting, Chica Bella is a great read. This is the first story by Author Carly Fall that I’ve had the pleasure to read. I’m a sucker for a tall, dark, and handsome SEAL and that’s exactly what Landon is. *swoon* His love interest, Maya, is a native to Cobo. They’ve had a loose romantic relationship for several years. It seems when things are […]

My thoughts… I really enjoyed reading this one. I loved both Rory and Tyler from the beginning. These two are completely different. Rory is pretty much a book nerd. She’s attending college to become a coroner. She’s never been in a relationship before. She’s a virgin and she’s just…different. Tyler’s a bad boy or at least that’s what he seems to be at first. He’s attending the same college but he’s in the EMT program […]

My thoughts… A Taste of You is the debut novel from Author Sorcha Grace. I wasn’t sure what to expect going into this one, but I’m glad I decided to give it a try. Catherine. I liked Catherine aka Cat from the beginning. I felt she got dealt a bad hand in life before moving to Chicago and I could understand her reluctance to start a new relationship. William. To be honest I didn’t really […]

Release Day, Review & Giveaway: Rock with Me – Kristen Proby

May 2, 2013 0 Comments Christy

My thoughts… Rock With Me is the fourth book in the “With Me In Seattle” series. I loved this one. At first I wasn’t sure what to expect with this book. I’ve read book one, the Christmas novella that followed, but skipped books two and three because of time constraints. Rock With Me can be read as a stand alone, but I found that I wished I had read all the previous books to know […]

My thoughts… I loved, loved, loved No Attachments. As some of you know Author Tiffany King is one of my favorite authors. I haven’t read one of her books yet that I didn’t like. My daughter who’s 14 loves her books too. Although she won’t be reading this one since it’s more New Adult. As with most of Tiffany’s books you can always count on her taking you on an emotional journey. Her stories are […]

My thoughts… The premise for this novella was quite good. The story is about Isaac and Stacy getting their relationship back on track after having a baby. They go on dates with each other and have sex. Lot’s and lot’s of sex. And the sex is pretty hot. Stacy and Isaac weren’t in the first book very much so it was nice getting to know them. I really liked that Stacy was a reader, blogger, […]

My thoughts… I loved this book and I loved both Luke and Natalie. The way things started off between these two was interesting although I think Luke went a little overboard in the situation. Natalie is a strong, independent, and beautiful woman. She has a sassy side and I really liked that about her. Luke is famous, handsome and just want to live a normal life out of the limelight. The attraction between these two […]

My thoughts… I’ve heard many things about this book. Some of my fellow readers are going wild for Remington “Riptide” Tate. There’s even a Facebook Group centered around him and the other characters within the book. My first impression of Remy was that he is cocky. I mean really cocky. When Remy and Brooke first meet things are a little bit awkward to me but for the most part was believable. I liked the connection […]

My thoughts… The first chapter of this book will leave you laughing. The way it is written was a nice surprise and cracked me up. I loved Sidney and Peter. They both have issues from the past that they are struggling with, but they just seem to fit well together. They’ve both ran away from their problems instead of dealing with them and it ends up being a big mistake for Sidney when her past […]

My thoughts… When you look up the definition for Bad Boy there is a photo next to it. Meet Rule Archer. He’s 100% bad boy and just *sigh* He has it all. Hair shaved on one side this week. The next week he’s sporting a green mohawk. He’s covered in tattoos. He’s got multiple piercings and a bad attitude to boot. He also goes through girls like he goes through socks. To say he has […]

My thoughts: Yay!!! It’s finally here! After One Week Girlfriend left off with a cliffhanger, I’ve been patiently waiting to get my hands on Second Chance Boyfriend so I could find out what happened next and of course how things would end for both Drew & Fable. I declared my love for Drew Callahan after reading book one. Both he and Fable have a lot of baggage, but they are good for each other, and […]

My thoughts… Midnight Secrets is the debut book by author Ella Grace aka Christy Reece. If you’re a fan of Christy, I highly suggest reading Midnight Secrets. This is going to be a fantastic series. I loved both Zach and Savannah from the very beginning. Both from the same town, Midnight, Alabama, their backgrounds are completely different. While Savannah and her sisters Sabrina and Samantha are from a highly regarded family in Midnight, Zach is […]

My thoughts… When I first started reading this story I found myself shaking my head. Tyler has been portrayed as a ladies man in the last book or so. When the only woman he has ever had feelings for shows back up in his life with a child that is his that he had no idea existed Tyler immediately wants to be father of the year. Also I think the way Del became pregnant was […]

My thoughts… I have been not so patiently waiting for Trust in Me to be released. I’m so happy that it released early. The first two books in this series were so good. I fell in love with each of the characters. Rich is known as a player and he flirts with everyone. Roni wants nothing to do with him even though she’s strongly attracted to him. I enjoyed how these two danced around each […]

My thoughts… I’ve been patiently waiting to get my hands on this book. I loved the first book in this series. The Stranger ended with a surprising cliffhanger that I didn’t see coming and I’ve been excited to see what would happen next with this story. Kasie’s fiancé, Dave, finds out that she’s having an affair with Robert Dade who is one of her new clients. I sort of felt sorry for Dave in the […]

My thoughts… I’ll start off by saying that I love this series and every book that’s a part of it. The characters are always rich with emotions and the sexual aspect of these stories are always smoking hot and well written. I loved Maura, Zeke, and Rory. Maura and Zeke previously dated, but thing didn’t work out for them. Zeke couldn’t be the person Maura needed him to be. Enter Rory. Zeke and Rory have […]

My thoughts… I really didn’t know what to expect with this book. I loved the Pushing The Limits which is the first book in this series. I wasn’t a fan of Beth in the first book. I thought she was both mean and rude. Hardened if you will. But after reading her story I can understand why she acts or acted the way she did. She’s hard it rough. A hard life from the time […]

My thoughts… I loved this story. I wasn’t sure what to expect going into it, but I had a good feeling about it. The synopsis captured my attention and I was really excited to start reading it. One Week Girlfriend is a highly emotional story about college football quarterback, Drew Callahan. He’s known as the golden boy. He’s from a well to do family, doesn’t want for anything and can have any girl he choses. […]

My thoughts… I was so excited when I heard Chris was going to get his own story. Although it’s a short one (Novella), it’s a great read. I was able to read it all in one setting. I love the Edge of Honor Series. It’s chock full of tall, dark and sexy heroes. It’s a must read for all romantic suspense lovers. Chris is the glue that holds everything together. He’s more than Dare’s errand […]

My thoughts… Chain Reaction is the final book in the Perfect Chemistry series. This has been a really good series and I’m very happy that I stumbled upon it. Ms Elkeles has a great writing style and her work will grab your attention from the very beginning and keep you turning page after page to find out what happens next. Luis, who is the youngest of three brothers has his life all mapped out. He […]
