Review: The Coincidence of Coconut Cake by Amy E. Reichert
3 stars? 2.5 stars? I struggled with rating The Coincidence of Coconut Cake because my opinion depends on how I categorize the book.

Review: Sweeping the Series by Kate Stewart
Sweeping the Series is a romantic comedy novella about Ren, a womanizer who seems to spend more time feeding the tabloids with salacious stories than focusing on his career as a major league baseball catcher. Erica is the PR representative hired to clean up his image. Oh, and she’s also his ex-girlfriend/love of his life. There’s a love/hate dynamic between them that gives off all kinds of sparks.
Blog Tour, Review & Giveaway: Long Shot by Kennedy Ryan
I am a fan of Kennedy Ryan’s work, and I have a weakness for sports romances. When I found out Long Shot isn’t a comedy like most books in the genre, I was intrigued. Another selling point is that it takes place in the world of profession basketball; whereas, the majority of sports romances I’ve read are related to hockey, football, or baseball. That combination should have made Long Shot a slam dunk for me, but I found myself liking rather than loving it.
Audiobook Review: Beautiful Bastard by Christina Lauren
I’ve heard nothing but good things about this series, and I must say that Beautiful Bastard (book 1) is a highly entertaining read. It’s also one very, very dirty book.
New Release Review: Transcend by Jewel E. Ann
I continue to be amazed by the creative capacity of Jewel E. Ann. Her books refuse to be contained in tidy, predictable boxes. Transcend is aptly named because it surpasses all expectations in terms of originality, intricacy, mystery, and poignancy.
March Ultimate Reading Challenge Review: Wait for You by Jennifer L. Armentrout
March’s Ultimate Reading Challenge 2018: New-To-You Author The #UlimateReadingChallenge for March was to read a book by a new-to-you author. I chose Jennifer L. Armentrout and Wait for You. No, I’ve never read one of her books before. I know; I know. I can hear your gasps from here. At least I’m part of the “in” group now, right?
New Release Review ♥ Wanderlust by Lauren Blakely
I knew I wanted to read Wanderlust the minute saw the words British and Paris in the synopsis. I love getting lost in books where I get to visit other countries through the eyes of the characters.
Review: Love and Other Words by Christina Lauren
Christina Lauren, what have you done to me??? I am a hot mess right now. I’m talking about ALL the feels, ya’ll. Love and Other Words is an adult contemporary romance that is equal parts coming of age, friends becoming lovers, loss and heartache, and second chance romance—all combined in one potent fictional cocktail. It is 100% amazing!
Review ♥ Switch Hitter by Sara Ney
Switch Hitter was originally included in Team Player: A Sports Romance Anthology. I’m giving a virtual high five to Sara Ney for this adorkable rom-com novella. Ever since The Parent Trap, I’ve had a soft spot for twin switcheroo stories.
Review: Hard Hitter by Sarina Bowen
I quite enjoyed Hard Hitter, the second standalone book in the Brooklyn Bruisers series.
Review: Marriage of Inconvenience by Penny Reid
The Knitting in the City series is officially over (insert ugly cry) and what a sendoff. Marriage of Inconvenience is all kinds of wonderful.
February Ultimate Reading Challenge Audiobook Review: The Law of Moses by Amy Harmon
February’s Ultimate Reading Challenge 2018: Tear Jerkers Audiobook Review Welp. I was looking for a good tear jerker and The Law of Moses has a ton of 5-star reviews. Many have mentioned how heartbreaking it is. This is clearly a case of it-must-be-just-me. I’m probably emotionally stunted or my tear ducts may be extremely clogged because I didn’t come close to shedding a tear. There are parts that are quite sad, but I felt detached from the story for the most part. I think the fact that I listened to the audio book may be to blame, but I’ll get to that in a minute.
