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.

I’ve said this before, but I popped my erotica cherry as it were with a J. Daniels book (Sweet Addiction, in case you’re curious). She’s had a special place in my heart ever since. I love her and her books—almost as much as bacon—and while I liked Hit the Spot, I didn’t adore it.
Big Rock was the first book I’d read by Lauren Blakely, and I instantly became a fan. While not officially called a series, she has written a collection of unique and enjoyable spin-off standalones since then. Well Hung is part of that assortment, and it’s equally charming, witty, and oh so sexy.
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.
Just when I think Kate Stewart can’t do any better, she manages to prove me wrong. I was a massive fan of her previous book, Anything But Minor, so this one had fairly large shoes to fill. Well, butter my butt and call me a biscuit if I didn’t enjoy Major Love just as much, if not more.
Two adjectives that describe Sawyer Bennett’s books: versatile and seductive. She does romantic suspense, romantic comedy, and erotica equally well. Sexy Lies and Rock & Roll is another feather in her talented cap.
Jana Aston just made my day. This story is so freaking cute that I giggled—actually giggled like a schoolgirl—my way through the first chapter of Trust. That led to full-out laughing out loud and swooning throughout the rest of the book. In the end, I wound up with sore cheeks from smiling so much. Chloe is absolutely adorkable. Her numerous dating disasters are cringe-worthy and hysterical. She takes the prize as the most socially awkward, anxiety-ridden, yet lovable character in recent memory. Like, we’re total besties now.
Let me preface this by saying I don’t read a lot of novellas. The length just doesn’t allow enough time to sufficiently develop characters, and the thin plots typically leave me feeling unsatisfied. It’s impossible for me to hold them to the same standards as full-length novels. That said, Fling is the first book I’ve read by Jana Aston, and if she can write a novella this entertaining I’m excited to read one of her full-length novels.
Dear Penny Reid, You can stop trying to dominate my list of favorite authors now. I get it. Your writing is hilarious, smart, effortless, and super romantic. Given your prolific body of work, it’s just not fair to other romantic comedy authors out there. Now you’ve gone and shoved your brilliance in my face once again with Beard Science.
If you have a weakness for single parent romances, go ahead and exercise that one-click finger right now because The Sexy One features one of the dreamiest dads I’ve ever had the pleasure of drooling over.
Audio Book Review My previous Karina Halle reads have involved lots of drama and angst, which made me curious. Can she pull off romantic comedy? Smut proves that the answer is yes—extremely well.
Susan Elizabeth Phillips has a unique way of combining romance with laugh out loud humor and then mixing in unusual characters to create an engaging rom-com story. Heaven, Texas has her distinctive funny, sexy style written all over it. This is the second book in the Chicago Stars series but can be read as a standalone. While I didn’t like this book as much as It Had to Be You, I still found it to be quite enjoyable.
