If you haven’t read The Deal by Elle Kennedy yet, you’re missing out on one of my absolute favorite New Adult romances. It’s funny, a bit steamy, and hard to put down. Grab it while it’s free! Add Audible narration for just $1.99.
One of my favorite authors, Jewel E. Ann, has a new release. A PLACE WITHOUT YOU, an all-new emotional New Adult romance, is now available!
2018 has flown by! I read just over 100 books this year and discovered so many fantastic stories. Here is my list of favorite books read in 2018, in no particular order.
I have always had great fondness for Michelle Obama due to her relatability, kindness, and intellect. After reading Becoming and the frank exploration of her life, I must say that I have an everlasting respect for this remarkable yet extraordinarily ordinary woman. The memoir is informative and inspirational, often challenging the reader to acknowledge obvious as well as covert inequities in our society—and to do something about them.
Ok, Aly Martinez. You got me. You got me good. I pride myself on being able to spot plot twists a mile away, but I should know by now that I’m no match for your clever mind.
I’m going to give it to you straight: Feeling Hot is light on substance and extremely heavy on erotica. Some readers may be fine with 100% pure smut, but I need at least a semi-decent story to go along with my smut. This book meets the storyline requirement just fine, but you won’t find any great character development, suspense, or deep issues explored.
Hate Notes is an office-based enemies turned lovers story that delivers an entertaining mix of whimsy, feuding, and romance, with a whiff of mystery.
Ugh, just some evidence of my tiny, hard, shriveled heart. I had some issues with this book, and none of them were necessarily the issues you’d expect from this type of set up. Everything was just so perfect.
Across the Horizon is such a witty treat that I kept forgetting it was written by Aly Martinez, AKA the Dame of Doom, Sovereign of Suspense, and Matriarch of Mystery and Misery.
Mariana Zapata slays it again with an utterly entertaining enemies-to-lovers story set within the world of professional figure skating. I listened to the audiobook of From Lukov with Love which is 15 hours long (524 pages), and I can honestly say that I didn’t want it to end.
Sarina Bowen is an auto-buy author for me, so I’m glad to have a new book to look forward to in 2019. Take a peek at the cover of OVERNIGHT SENSATION and enjoy an excerpt.
Well…yay! Beginner’s Luck feels like it belongs on that shelf with Act Like It or The Hating Game (if anything belongs on that shelf with The Hating Game) in terms of contemporary debuts. There were so many great things about this book.
