Happy Friday, book lovers! First Line Fridays is hosted by Hoarding Books. Today, I’m featuring the first line of Runaway Girl by Tessa Bailey. This is the second book in a standalone series, and I thought the first book was hilarious. It’s been on my TBR shelf for awhile and I’m excited to get to know this heroine.
Melanie Harlow and debut author David Romanov do a wonderful job blending their writing styles in this touching M/M romance.
Elle Kennedy’s Briar U series is filled with lovable goofball hockey players and the girls that put up with love them. The Dare is the fourth standalone set on the Ivy League campus and both the lady and the jock shine bright.
This was a perfectly fine read for me. A Secret for a Secret is sweet and sexy and there isn’t anything glaringly wrong. It just didn’t wow me the way some of the other books in the series have.
Just in time for the warmer weather, seven bestselling authors have teamed up to bring you a collection of all new, summer themed short stories. Even better? You can download Summer Fling for free.
I am constantly impressed by Jewel E. Ann’s versatility as a writer. If you want a mind-bending thriller filled with twists, she’s your gal. She also does contemporary romance really well. However, she does have a tendency to lure you in with humor and sweetness, only to break your heart. Don’t get me wrong. I love her wicked ways because her books are so engrossing and well-written, but I’m always holding my breath, waiting for the other shoe to drop. There’s no need to worry about that with Fortuity. It’s a bewitching romance that is quite simply a joy to read from beginning to end.
Queen Move is quintessential Kennedy Ryan — a second chance romance that seamlessly combines important social issues with a scorching love story and an emotional plot.
The Lying Hours is a modern take on Cyrano de Bergerac. I was worried I’d spend the majority of the book just waiting for the main character to be caught in a lie, but it’s not nearly as bad as I feared.
This book really took me by surprise in the best possible way. I expected Beach Read to simply be a lighthearted romance, perfect for a day of relaxing. While there is humor a plenty, which I gobbled up, it is actually a very touching story.
This book is a great antidote for a bad day. You would have to try really hard to read an Emma Chase novel and still feel grumpy. Dirty Charmer starts with an alluring meet cute and the smiles just keep coming.
Sarina Bowen is like my sports romance fairy godmother. Whenever I’m feeling down, she is there to wave her fictional magic wand and — poof! — I’m transported to a wonderful place where hockey players have soft hearts and and the women who love them share a tight bond. Sure Shot is exactly the sweet escape I needed. Bess Beringer is a sports agent with a solid reputation and one firm rule: never date athletes. With a successful business well in hand, Bess decides it’s time to pursue a fulfilling personal life. She is on the right path to making her dreams a reality until a blast from her past threatens to derail her plans.
