Review: Scandalous by L.J. Shen
Scandalous is the third book in L.J. Shen’s Sinners of Saint series, and it’s every bit as addictive, unpredictable, and scorching hot as the previous books. I feel like I’m being redundant gushing about this series.

Review: Ruckus by L.J. Shen
It’s official. I am unequivocally addicted to the Sinners of Saint series. After reading the first book, Vicious, I suspected I’d found a new favorite series. Ruckus sealed the deal.
Review: Vicious by L.J. Shen
So many people have told me how wonderful L.J. Shen’s writing is. I finally decided to see for myself, and Vicious seemed like a good place to start. After chapter one, I was completely mesmerized.
Review: Thirty Day Boyfriend by Whitney G.
Thirty Day Boyfriend is classic Whitney G. She can spin a story that’s equal parts funny, sexy, and sweet.
Review ♥ How to Date a Douchebag: The Studying Hours by Sara Ney
I really enjoyed this college rom-com. How to Date a Douchebag: The Studying Hours is the first sports romance I’ve read about wrestlers. Personally, I’ve never been a fan of wrestling. Big sweaty guys, grabbing each other in headlocks like elementary kids in a playground fight, rolling around on mats, and pinning each other down? Meh. And those unitard thingies they wear? I don’t care how much junk they show, they just aren’t sexy to me. I guess I’m in the minority because all the girls on campus get lady boners over the wrestlers. They must have a really sucky football team or something. Who knows? So yeah. The wrestlers are a big deal at this college and, apparently, the majority of them are big douche canoes.
Review ♥ When It’s Real by Erin Watt
I don’t read a lot of Young Adult novels. I feel like there’s just too much unnecessary drama in many of them or they contain problems that seem insignificant to me now. Trust me when I say that I get enough drama every day from my own three teens. So yeah, I’m selective when it comes to YA books. When It’s Real is light on drama and just plain fun.
Review: Buns by Alice Clayton
Alice Clayton returns to the delightful upstate New York town of Bailey Falls in this third installment of her Hudson Valley series. Her writing has always appealed to me, and once again I found myself wrapped up in a sweet love story.
Review ♥ Bad Romeo by Leisa Rayven
Reading this book was an exercise in frustration. Here’s the plot in a nutshell. A man is a prick, a woman is fixated on his dick, said man breaks said woman’s heart, and they wind up starring in a Broadway show opposite each other as lovers.
Review ♥ Bully by Penelope Douglas
Bullying is something that’s unfortunately very prevalent among youths. Regardless of whether it’s subtle or blatant, verbal, physical, and cyber bullying is degrading, humiliating, and devastating for the victim. I was intrigued by how extreme bullying could start—seemingly out of the blue—between two people who were once inseparable best friends and destined to be more.
Review: Naughty Boss by Whitney G.
Whitney G.’s books always put a smile on my face, and Naughty Boss is no different. It’s a classic enemies to lovers boss/employee novella with a fantastic setup.
Review: The Hating Game by Sally Thorne
I can’t believe The Hating Game is Sally Thorne’s first novel. This book is such a joy from beginning to end. It has all the makings of a great enemies to lovers romance: a quirky, smart, sweet but lonely girl; a gorgeous, intelligent but antagonistic hero; tons of banter and bickering; hilarious shenanigans; and a slow burn. However, it’s the execution of the refreshing plot that makes this story so lovely.
Review ♥ Nobody’s Baby But Mine by Susan Elizabeth Phillips
Nobody—and I do mean no body—crafts a comedic enemies-to-lovers story as well as Susan Elizabeth Phillips. Period. Oh, and arrogant jerks. Somehow she creates these arrogant and bull-headed alphas who are so sweet at heart that they easily win you over. And her heroines? I always adore her gutsy heroines. Basically, I’m a huge SEP fan in case you can’t tell. Nobody’s Baby But Mine is the third book in the Chicago Stars series, and it’s every bit as enjoyable as the previous books.
