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.

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.
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!
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.
I haven’t read very many Kristen Ashley books, but I can see why she’s such a popular author. She has a way of seamlessly weaving multiple characters together into an entertaining plot. Ride Steady is a great example of this.
Ladies and Gentlemen, I would like to introduce you to my first five-star book of 2018. Look the Part is a massive gem in author Jewel E. Ann’s impressive collection of written treasures. This book is so stunning it took my breath away. It’s a unique take on second-chance romance, and it just may be my favorite work of hers to date.
Ten Tiny Breaths is a beautifully written story about loss, love and forgiveness.
I’ve only recently discovered L.J. Shen’s work, but she is rapidly becoming one of my favorite authors. Midnight Blue is an epic enemies-to-lovers story that is every bit as absorbing as I expected.
Re-read for the Ultimate Reading Challenge 2018. Re-released with a new cover in 2016. Still 5 stars! I was extremely moved by Archer’s Voice when I read it three years ago. At the time, I didn’t hesitate to place it on my Favorites bookshelf. I was scared to re-read it, though, because I know my tastes as a reader tend to change. I shouldn’t have worried because I loved it every bit as hard as I did the first time.
Prince Charming is CD Reiss’s latest dive into the world of digital espionage. At the center is an ambitious FBI agent and a shady hacker.
If you enjoy the forbidden, Defy is one heck of a student-teacher romance. It’s beyond sultry and I was surprised by the unpredictable nature, seeing that the entire plot appears to be given away in the synopsis.
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.
