<br /><br />Final Score 4 Stars!<br /><br />Jamie and Ryan!!! They are back and this time with a baby? Color me shocked; will we see Trevor and Ollie with a baby next? I hope so. More on that later-ish ...<br /><br />Having it all for a woman today is hard and I got where Jamie was coming from. I’m glad that Ryan supported her decision and together moved forward as the strong team they’ve always been. That dirt bag ex and his girlfriend deserved more of a comeuppance. Their dirty deeds should have had a more lasting effect.<br /><br />I’m dying to read about the latest Stark in his own book. When is that one happening? Sign me up!<br /><br />

<br /><br />
Final Score - 4.5 Stars!<div><br /></div><div>My Dark Desire broke my heart. In a good way. And also in a bad way. <br /><br />That opening scene - gut wrenching. The trauma of it stayed with me as I was reading. It helped me understand a little boys frame of mind and how it shaped the man he became. Poor Zac, my heart felt for him. But my soul was in Fae. She's the star of this book. Absolutely, wholeheartedly.<br /><br />Two people who couldn't be anymore different than they are. But the perfect match for other. <br /><br />This book didn't mince the issues these two faced: meddling mom, crazy auntie, parasitic pseudo-family, but each was able to overcome these obstacles. I don't think I'm ready for Ollie's book (or Frankie) but bring it Parker & LJ. I'm ready. *<b>crosses fingers behind back</b>*<div><br />

<a href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/126725825">Through the Glen</a> by <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/4167378">Samantha Young</a><br/>
My rating: <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/5977321609">5 of 5 stars</a>
<br /><br />
Final Score - 4.5 Stars!<br /><br />The third book to the Highlands series, Through the Glen delivers the emotional and offers redemption of one it's most colorful characters yet. The story follows shy housekeeper Sarah, who having made it as an author decides to quit her job at Ardnoch. That's how Theo, brilliant screenwriter and producer. He's also self professed man whore who doesn't believe in HEA. <br /><br />Sarah approaches him to help her bring her wildly successful book series to the small screen. Theo has a natural talent as he previous helped North (Book 2 hero) achieve success as an actor on a show he wrote and produced. He's Sarah first and only choice as he is just that good. Of course, it's not smooth sailing. <br /><br />However, while working together and opening up to each other, lines are crossed (not they mind) and whoa! Is their chemistry off the charts! I loved that Theo was who was and didn't apologize too often for it. I hate it when it feels like they apologize so much and are so regretful. It feels fake and disingenuous. And people really under estimate Sarah. She is no shy wall flower. These polar opposites lit up my heart and mind. So much so that days later, I'm re-reading this again. I just love the audio book and how it brings them to life. <br /><br />Now, I can't wait for Jared's story. I have a feeling that one will be even more interesting.

My rating: <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/5596127755">5 of 5 stars</a>
<br /><br />
Final Score - 5 Stars!!!<br /><div><br /></div><div>This book is easily my top read of 2024 thus far! I need sometime to process/get my words together for this review. BRB …</div><div><br /></div><div>Okay. I'm back. I know that a lot of people are un-happy with how the whole Dean/Dixie drama went down. But, here's my thoughts on the subject: I didn't care about them enough for them to be the endgame of each other's story. Love is messy, especially when it's one sided and you eventually realize it always will be. At least they walked away from what could have been endless dram and are just, what now, friends? Brother/sister? If you can call it that, especially when children are involved. </div><div><br /></div><div>Well, one thing you can say about the Todos Santos clan ... they sure do keep it entertaining!</div><div><br /></div><div>With this book, I came for one purpose, one purpose only. I came for #Bailev. I got a messed up version of #Bailev, but it was always #Bailev. And #Bailev nearly destroyed me!!! Addiction is such a powerful illness. It kills relationships, families, careers, and the person itself. Reading this book, I got a better understanding of the struggle we all as humans go thru and how some people can solider thru, unscathed. And then there are the one's who we think can. Those who wear the mask of being able and capable. Only for them to fall low and hard; which is when we realize that they are just as human as the rest of us. </div><div><br /></div><div>This story was powerful, and messy, and beautiful. #Bailev came out stronger, both separate and together, but their struggle will be a daily occurrence. And that brings me to my tiny issue I had. I did not enjoy Payden and Thaila, at all. The damaged they inflicted and the end result just doesn't sit right with me.</div><div><br /></div><div>Hang on to your tissue box, cause this one is gonna bring the tears of frustration, the tears of sorrow, and maybe even the tears of unrequited love. But in the end, it will all be worth it.</div><br />

My rating: <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/6025149430">2 of 5 stars</a>
<br /><br />
<div>Final Score- 2 Stars </div><div><br /></div><div>I originally stopped reading after 4 chapters because it was boring and nothing clicked for me. Not the characters, the settings, or the story. But I HATE leaving anything undone. I had unanswered questions (the main one being would she find love and how would it come about) and I needed that answered. So, I forged thru but then came to a complete stop. I literally could not go further cause I felt let down, as should every woman who reads this story written by another woman who thought it was ok to write this?! Are you serious?! </div><div><br /></div><div>At nearly the end of book, we learn that the love interest (the guy) has been married the entire time he embarked on another relationship! He didn't tell the heroine of the book this fact before he had sex with her!! And to make matters worse, she only found out because her step brother told her the guy was still married!!! This was acceptable and would turn to a HEA?! SERIOUSLY?! But it didn't end there. Not only is he still married, but he still lives with his wife? I'm sorry, but after that, I didn't care read any explanation as to why he kept her in the dark, that status of his marriage or the HEA that comes after. This book was/is officially DNF'd. There is just no coming back from that.</div><br />

<br /><br />
<div>Final Score - 5 Epic Love Stars!!!<br /><br />Among The Heather is book two in The Highlands series but can be easily enjoyed as a standalone. Although I highly recommend the series and you'd enjoy it even more reading in order.<br /><br />We first meet Aria, who is the estate manager at Ardnoch, and North, an actor in book one. These two characters wasn't really expanded upon, but we got just a nibble to peak our interest in seeing them in a book together or their own books. And that nibble has turned into a tasty bite that sunk my teeth into cause these two are FIRE together. <br /><br />Aria at times did make me want to bang my head against the wall - she has thing about actors and has major, valid trust issues - as I felt she was consistently setting up North for failure with her expectations. However, in understanding her issues, you kind of forgive her, especially as seeing how when she opened up about her past relationships, it caused North to open up and divulge secrets regarding about his past. These two lost souls were the missing parts of each other they never knew existed. I absolutory adored the way their antagonism of each other blossomed into a friendship and later into something more. A true progression was shown and I felt it. <br /><br />This series has me excited and I can't wait for the next book, especially after that sneak peek! Theo Cavendish. I don't think we'll be ready for him, but something tells me the ride will be definitely worth the wait!</div><div><br /></div>

My rating: <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/5975227253">5 of 5 stars</a>
<br /><br /><div>Final Score - 5 OMG, What Did She Walk Into Stars!!!</div><div><br /></div><div>Just finished reading this book and I need a minute to get my thoughts together - this was an epic story that drew me in and didn't let me go for the past two days!</div><div><br /></div><div>Gothic mansion ✔️</div><div>Hauntings ✔️</div><div>Long lost family ✔️</div><div>Epic mystery ✔️</div><div><br /></div><div>Honestly, I hated myself for reading this one so fast. This gothic story is great for anyone looking for an escape; Just pace yourself while reading, cause once you are in it, YOU ARE ALL IN. </div><div><br /></div><div>It all starts with a wedding day filled with joy, but ends with heartache when the bride is murdered, her wedding ring stolen, and curse is laid. But it does end there. Once a generation, this fate meets a bride in the Poole family, in a gothic mansion, which our heroine Sonya has just inherited. Factor in she's just found out she is long lost member of this family (as it seems somehow her father was separated from his twin shortly after their tragic birth). </div><div><br /></div><div>There are mysteries to be solved here! Why were the twins separated? Why does this mansion house some many spirits? Why haven't they moved on? Why was the curse enacted? </div><div><br /></div><div>I adored Sonya and her BFF Cleo. Trey (Oliver the 3rd), oh how I swooned the first time he was introduced. His BFF Owen is another swoon worthy character. This quartet together makes this book intriguing, addictive and lures us into the nearly two century mystery surrounding Owen and Sonya's family (did I forget to mention that these two have just discovered they're lost distance cousins?) and how to break a curse that has reeked havoc for this family. </div><div><br /></div><div>Together this quartet sets about to break the curse and free Sonya (along with the rest of the Poole family) from the hauntings of the mansion, as well as set the spirits that roam within free. Should be no problem, but first she needs to find each of the seven rings stolen from each bride that was lost.</div><div><br /></div><div>The story is left in a cliffhanger (which I did see coming). I would have liked to see an preview of what happened/what's to come. I think that would have made me feel a little more satisfied as to how it was left. I also would have loved more of build up to the Sonya/Try romance. I understand it was a slow burn, but wick was nearly out by the time they got there and once they did, it was all about the mystery of the house, the spirits and the lost brides. No real romance for me, so I expect in the other books they'll expand some on this (hopefully). </div><div><br /></div><div>Overall, Nora Roberts has done it. She's sucked me back into her story telling and I don't want to ever surface. Ms. Roberts, it's been a while since I've read your books (trust me, I have a bunch on my selves & on my kindle) and it looks like I need to do some re-reads. STAT! </div><div><br /></div><div>Thanks to NetGalley and St. Martin's Press for advance copy of this book in exchange for my honest review. I can't wait for the next book in the series!</div><div><br /></div>

<a href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/200775847">Dirty Crazy Bad: The Complete Collection</a> by <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/8390357">Siobhan Davis</a><br />
My rating: <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/5975185448">4 of 5 stars</a>
<br /><br />
Final Score - 4 Stars<br /><br />That Prequel, for me, was un-necessary. My opinion of that witch Pamela is NEVER gonna change, and reading how she went about coldly and calculating getting a divorce? And then blowing off her kid? Selfish harpy. Worst. Mother. Ever.<br /><br />Book One for me continues to WOW ... and to Whoa! Seriously. <br /><br />This book was most definitely Dirty - the only kind I adore and love to read. The filthy, sexy times? Hand me a fan!! I was drooling in envy! Where do I sign up?<br /><br />It’s also most definitely Crazy - what happens in this book? Not for the faint of heart. I struggled for days to get thru this with exasperation over the shenanigans and happenings but I made it to the other side. Boy am I glad I did too. I need the next book NOW!!<br /><br />And last but certainly not least - it was oh so Bad. As in bad boys, bad men and, even bad women. All working to outwit one another. Bad life choices/decisions had me struggling not to pull my hair out!<br /><br />I freaking adore Ash. She’s the bomb dot com. I was feeling Jade and Chad and then it fell apart. I’m still pissed at these two though. And Bree is my kind of girl. Ares is the wildcard and I’m still unsure of him. Hopefully he’ll be explained more in the next book.<br /><br />Book Two was not what I expected and I was left with questions. The big reveal left me with a flat feel the first time. Having read the prequel, yup. The cray-cray was on the wall, even before I saw for myself in this book. It still doesn't shock me, but it’s still confusing the the way it came about/out. It just felt like too much happened too fast. I just wanted more explanation for Ash's mom being the way she was - was the story she told even true?<br /><br />Amidst the pain and devastation from the last book, a happy ending was achieved. But what’s up with Bree? My girl needs her story to be told. There’s something brewing there …<br /><br />All in all, I enjoyed reading this book and it’s conclusion and those bonus scenes *fans self*

<a href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/61329105">You Beautiful Thing, You</a> by <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/16192760">Saffron A. Kent</a><br />
My rating: <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/4807960860">5 of 5 stars</a>
<br /><br />Final Score - 5 War & Peace Stars!!!<br /><br />I have adored the Girls of St. Mary's and all their trials and errors with love and happiness. So, expecting nothing less than what I've read before - I'm happy to say that Tempest and Ledger's road to love is laced with drama, sadness, tears, frustrations, and when combined together ... you are on an EPIC insane ride. I was totally hear for it. Thank god I was on vacation reading this - I needed to be fully present for this. I’ve been waiting for this story for so long and I went into it full force. I did not stop reading, in fact I'm re-read it again. It's just that good. These two were made for each other - so much more so than Callie and Reed.<br /><br />Ledger ... oh my poor wounded soul brother from another mother. I have been waiting to find out what his deal is/was. This book does not disappoint in getting to the root of his issues. The Angry Thorn - I've always hated that description of him. I'm so happy that Tempest is the balm to soothe this misjudged man-boy.<br /><br />I cannot wait until the other Thorn boys/men are dealt with - Shep and Stellan, I'm looking at you!<br /><br />

<br /><br />
Final Score - 4 Stars!<div><br /></div><div>This is my first book by Ivy Karr. As I am still in the processing of reading this book (just about to finish within the day), just wanted to say that regardless of the grammatical errors (that at times made some sentences hard to follow), I am enjoying the story. The only negative, for me, is the extremely slow pace.<br />I understand a good slow burn story, but this was too slow, it nearly fizzled out for me.<br /><br />I am definitely interested in reading more from this author though; I just hope the pace is a bit quicker with the others.<br style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #0f1111; font-family: "Amazon Ember", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;" /><br />

I'm stuck in February 2022 when I was on phone and told my grandfather had passed away in a foreign country, there would be no funeral, and he would be buried so far from his homeland. <br /><br />So, to muster up any excitement about what's going on in the SM is not a priority, cuz frankly speaking:<br /><br />I DON'T CARE WHAT'S HAPPENING IN YOUR PERFECT WORLD.<br /><br />However, when I decided to finally come out of my shell and see what's been happening, I am met with the latest DRAMA happening in the Author/Writing world?

<a href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/63946922">The Love Plot</a> by <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/4167378">Samantha Young</a><br />
My rating: <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/5737297216">4 of 5 stars</a>
<br /><br />Final Score - 4 Stars!<br /><br />This story was absolutely cute and highly enjoyable to read! Although I did struggle to get involved with the book (didn't start it for a while after receiving the ARC due to RL issues), once I started to read - I was ALL in. This was everything that I was looking for and Samantha once again delivered. This meet-cute story had all the tropes needed: a big city setting, a grump vet doc, a free-spirited heroine, a meddling family, and a plot that draws you in from its brilliantly executed beginning until it's sappy, sweet-hearted end. I hate that this one is over. I am SO going to read it again.<br /><br />If you need an escape from life, as I did, I highly recommend this book.<div><br /></div><div> <br />

<a href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/175892475">Entwined With You</a> by <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/6459302">J. Kenner</a><br/>
My rating: <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/6337056798">5 of 5 stars</a>
<br /><br />
Final Score - 4.5 Stars!<br /><br />Oh me, oh my, oh wow Braxton! I think your competing with Ryan in my heart.<br /><br />This book was not as original as others seem to think (this reads like a soap opera plot at times), but it take it further. The emotional aspects are what cinched this for me and Braxton in my heart. He utter devastation at finding the one person who got him (even at a young age) and losing her so tragically - upended his life. No one else could ever compare. Sabrina was it for him. Really gave me Damien vibes in his utter devotion to her and her memory. <br /><br />Just when he's on solid ground again - new job and living his life - a bomb gets dropped on him and he's thrown back 15 yrs to the day and circumstances that took Sabrina from him. The bomb being her identical-never knew before-sister, Samantha. And here I smelled a rat and something fishy was cooking. I won't give it away but to say I knew it from day 1! Seriously? I see to many soaps where this happens. In any case, it was a ride - a very enjoyable one at that - and I'm so happy every worked out for Brax in the end. He truly deserved peace of mind and heart. He had suffered enough. <br /><br />The intrigue, the anticipation, the is she/isn't she, elevated this story to a level so much higher than anything I've read before. This is one rollercoaster of a ride you don't want to miss!

<a href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/102894912">The One I Want</a> by <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/8390357">Siobhan Davis</a><br />
My rating: <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/5717584179">4 of 5 stars</a>
<br /><br />
Final Score - 4 Stars<br /><br />I’m so conflicted in my feelings about this book …<br /><br />It started out with such a slow burn romance, I was struggling to finish as there were times I just wanted to DNF the book and be done with it. But I stayed with it because I made a commitment, and I was rooting for Stevie to finally give Garrick a chance and see how their love story would unfold. And she did. And there were happy times and times when I just wanted to shake Stevie & Garrick. And then, all was right between them again. But, then it all change. And with that change came a 180 about face and I’m not sure if I’m happy with the direction it went and how it all came about. I was invested in Garrick, but I too fell for Beck. Ugh!<br /><br />The writing was excellent - as always with Siobhan Davis - I’m never disappointed in how she writes such emotional stories. This book will definitely put you thru the paces! However, still with everything that happened, I felt that this book could have been split into two (2) separate books.<br /><br />Overall, I’m still feel like I’m on the rollacoaster and having just gotten off the ride, I’m a bit nauseous and unsure of my bearings. I will have to read this book again sometime in the future and see how it sits with me then vs now.<div><br /></div><div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Merriweather, Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px;">F</span>inal Score - 3.5 Stars!<br /><br />Ollie and Trevor's relationship was ... out of left field for me. I didn't see it coming or get it really. In any case, I'm glad he found love FINALLY with someone. I was thinking that Jamie had ruined the poor guy for life. His ex-fiancée is good cause I would not have put up with him for as long as she did.<br /><br />

My rating: <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/5081017011">4 of 5 stars</a>
<br /><br />
Final Score - 4 Stars!<br /><br />First off, I wanted more closure for Arsene where his mother was concerned. That literally broke my heart. Second, I did not expect to like this book. I don't know why, but something told me I was in for it. Third, I am so glad that monster is D-E-D, DEAD. Not to mention the cheating scums. Ugh, the worst people EVER. <br /><br />Poor Winnie. Ugh, girl I feel like we are soul sisters. And Arsene. Well, it took me a bit of time to warm up to him. I'm still lukewarm in my feelings about him at best. I just didn't understand his thought process, reasoning, and that toxic relationship! Yeah, I'm still not over that part. Don't really know/feel if Winnie/Arsene are the perfect match together but, they managed to worked out.<br /><br />Still processing this book, but I did enjoy the escape it offered.

My rating: <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/5499601693">5 of 5 stars</a>
<br /><br />
Final Score - 5 Stars!<br /><br /><br />What a follow up to "Only You", even though this is a brand new series starter! We got to meet Sloane and Walker in "Only You" and the chemistry carried forward and burn this book into my retinas! I love burly, alpha Scotsmen meet strong, independent single mom w/adorable child tropes. *le sigh*<br /><br /><br />I ate this book in less than 2 days, I could not put it down. This emotional story pacts a lot of past baggage for our hero and heroine - both have been left with scars. But it was beautiful to see them push aside their fears and forge forward with a relationship neither one expected but both desired beyond measure. <br /><br /><br />As always, it was great to revisit established characters and be introduced to new ones as well. I have a felling a certain Scottish recluse and property manager will have their story told - soonish? *wink*<br /><div>I absolutely, wholeheartedly recommend this book and previous series.</div><br />

My rating: <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/5427623314">5 of 5 stars</a>
<br /><br />Final Score - 5 Stars!<br /><br />I adore marriage of convenience stories and this one now holds a special place in my heart. The slow burn build up to Wyatt and Fredricka's love story was SO worth the wait. These two needed to not only get to know each other but they needed to get of each others way and let things progress naturally. The children were the cherry on the top of this delicious confection, especially Bella. I laughed each time she referred to Wyatt as "Uncle Your Grace". OMGness, how adorable!<br /><br />I am SO looking forward to see Wyatt's friends, Hurst & Rick, find their own happily ever afters.<br /><br />

My rating: <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/5405131304">5 of 5 stars</a>
<br /><br />
Final Score - 4.5 Stars<br /><br />Parker S. Hungtington collaborated with LJ Shen on this book? I knew that I would just adore it to pieces. And I was not disappointed!<br /><br />The dynamic between Dallas and Romeo is much like her previous characters, but the author managed added another layer that was refreshing and sparked new interest. OMG, the amount of pop culture references alone had me LOL’ing with this one. By far the best friendship/romance stories I've read in sometime. And yes, I said friendship/romance because the friendship between Zach, Oliver and Romeo should not be overlooked.<br /><br />Sadly now after having read this book, I fear can never ride public transit and read an LJ Shen book again. I swear someone was about to call social services on the crazy laughing lady aka ME.<br />Fantastic story. I’m so in love with Romeo & Dallas❤️.<br /><br />Can someone give Oliver Frankie's number? I want their story next! Its gonna happen. You'll see *wink*<br /><br />

My rating: <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/4798582372">5 of 5 stars</a>
<br /><br />Final Score - 4.5 Stars!<br /><br />Only You by Samantha Young is the final book in the Adair Family series - and this book was so worth the wait! Another second chance at love story with a twist - these two were childhood friends with a serious case of unrequited love. *swoon* There were so many emotional twists and turns to this story. At times I loved Brodan. At times, I wanted to throttle him. In the end, he proved himself.<br /><br />I wish this series didn't have to end - so the epilogue was greatly needed to see where the Adair siblings are in not to distant future. I was emotional reading those snippets. Loved it. Now, I cannot wait to see what's next in store for us - cause anytime I read about the Highlands, I never want to leave. Bring on Beyond the Thistles!<br /><br />
