Synopsis:

From USA Today bestselling author Jennifer Hartmann comes an all-new standalone crossover romance filled with heartache and dreams.


Lexington Hall and I were never supposed to collide—he, the golden boy of Hollywood, and me, a small-town dreamer with stars in my eyes. But when we shared the stage in our high school musical, something ignited.


Then, just as quickly, it all fell apart, leaving my dreams in pieces.


Now, four years later, Lex is a household name, turning our past into a television sensation. He's spun our story for the world to see, while I'm still haunted by what we lost.


With millions obsessed over the "real" Stevie St. James, Lex reappears with an offer too tempting to turn down: a fake romance to keep the buzz alive, in exchange for the financial freedom I desperately need.


I convince myself I can play the part. But as old feelings resurface and new risks emerge, the line between fiction and reality begins to blur.


Dreams are easy to chase—but falling for the guy who shattered mine could cost me everything.


Spoiler-free Review

Dream On (Deluxe Edition)Dream On by Jennifer Hartmann
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Jennifer Hartmann, what did you do to my heart? I just got sucker punched in the feels—in the best, most devastating way.

Dream On is an unforgettable slow-burn romance about Stevie, a farm-town girl with big dreams, and Lex, an emotionally guarded Hollywood actor grappling with a troubled past and his growing feelings for Stevie. Their complicated love story unfolds through scripts, music, and a connection that begins to blur the line between acting and reality. Lex is able to express his true emotions through the roles he plays or behind a cell phone screen. Their connection is electric, and I was thoroughly invested in these two characters.

This book is everything. I savored every word from the first to the last page. The feels. What an epic journey. Dream On might just be my favorite book by Jennifer Hartmann.
Hands down, Dream On is one of my top reads of the year.

Review: You've Been Served by Carina Rose

You've Been Served by Carina Rose is LIVE and the perfect binge-worthy read. Check out my spoiler-free review of this swoony romance. 

You've Been Served by Carina Rose  Kindle Crack
Synopsis:

From Carina Rose comes this swoony romance between a small-town coffee shop owner and a hotshot lawyer!


It all started when the cappuccino machine went haywire and sent frothed milk all over me and a couple of my customers. Then the fire alarm went off thanks to my oven overheating. My day couldn’t get any worse, right? Well… hold my double-shot latte because I was served an eviction notice—my coffee shop and apartment, gone in sixty days. Cue my tears.


Then came the one-night stand—no last names, no strings, just one unforgettable, slightly reckless night with the most gorgeous man I’d ever laid eyes on. He made me feel things I hadn’t before. But more importantly, he helped me forget about my awful day.


Then we went our separate ways.


What I didn’t expect was for him to track me down. Or ask me out. Or make me laugh when everything I loved hung in the balance.


And just my luck, he was an attorney. Just the man who could help me, right? Wrong. His law firm was the one overseeing my eviction. And I couldn’t help wondering if he knew who I was all along, or if fate just had a twisted sense of humor.

Review of You've Been Served

You've Been ServedYou've Been Served by Carina Rose
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

4.5 You’ve Been Served by Carina Rose was such a delightful surprise, sweet, charming, and just the perfect summer read.

A one-night stand turns into a caffeinated conflict of interest when Beckett, an attorney, crosses paths with Hope, a coffee shop owner who is about to lose her shop.  Sparks fly and hearts start to brew up something neither of them saw coming.

Like the perfect cup of coffee from Hope’s Cozy Sip café, this story is both tasty and uplifting, and impossible to put down. You’ve Been Served is a warm, feel-good romance that leaves you smiling long after the last page.

Over the Moon by Laura Pavlov Kindle Crack Review

Download today or read for FREE with Kindle Unlimited

Synopsis:

Hockey is my first love. And I’m coming off the best season of my life.

In the process of scoring the winning goal that gave us the Stanley Cup I tore my MCL, and I’ll need to spend the next few months recovering.

Eloise Gable, the team’s new physical therapist, has been sent to Rosewood River to help me heal and get me ready for the new season.

Yet, she doesn’t seem all too happy about the situation.

In fact, she can’t stand me most days.

It doesn’t stop me from staring at her any chance I get.

She’s beautiful and brilliant, but she’s got her guard up the minute I get close.

Eloise is a distraction I wasn’t prepared for.

Did I mention that she’s also my coach’s daughter?

But after a long run together in the summer heat, our built up tension snapped.

We end up stripping down and jumping in the river.

It seemed like the logical thing at the time.

The problem is, Eloise Gable is completely off limits.

But I’m a professional hockey player, and in my world, limits were meant to be pushed.

Hockey may be my first love, but after falling for my coach’s daughter—it’s definitely not my last.

Review of Over the Moon

Over the Moon (Rosewood River, #3)Over the Moon by Laura Pavlov
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I’m over the moon about Over the Moon by Laura Pavlov! The third book in the Rosewood River series did not disappoint. I couldn’t get enough of Clark and Eloise. Fans of Laura’s other small-town romances will love seeing familiar characters from her previous books pop up. While those connections are a fun bonus, this story absolutely shines on its own and can be enjoyed as a total standalone. (That said, I’ve read and loved all her small-town romances and recommend them every chance I get!)

Over the Moon is packed with swoon-worthy moments, laugh-out-loud flirty banter, delicious chemistry, and all the small-town charm that makes Laura’s books so special to me. I’m ready to pack my bags and move to Rosewood River already! I also can’t wait to read Bridger’s book, Crazy in Love, when it releases in September. This unputdownable series is totally one-click worthy.

Synopsis:

From New York Times bestselling authors Penelope Ward and Vi Keeland comes a new standalone romance. When the board of directors of my company mandated that I go to a wellness facility in small-town Maine to recharge, that shouldn’t have included:


1.) Using a ladder to sneak out of the bedroom window at night and going to the local bar.

2.) Getting so drunk that the bar owner brought me upstairs to sleep it off in his bed.

3.) Waking up staring at the taxidermy moose head on said bar owner’s wall.

4.) Falling for said bar owner who was the most drop-dead gorgeous man I’ve ever seen.


But Brock Hawkins was so much more than just the hot bar owner. He owned half the town, built log cabins with his bare hands, and was apparently the most eligible man in all of Meadowbrook.

He was also a cinnamon roll despite his seemingly rock-hard exterior.

And the last man I should’ve been falling for—because my time in this small town was limited.

I had to head back to my life in New York City, one that was the complete opposite from the kind Brock lived.

He was denim. I was diamonds.

The problem was, the sexy lumberjack wasn’t the type of man who was easy to walk away from. Hell, I couldn’t even part with his plaid shirt that had become a constant fixture wrapped around my shoulders most days, let alone think about erasing him from my life.

A life with Brock, though, would have to be all or nothing.

Go big or go home.


 Spoiler-free review

Denim & Diamonds (Special Edition)Denim & Diamonds by Penelope Ward
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I still have the best book buzz after finishing Denim & Diamonds by  Penelope Ward and Vi Keeland! I couldn't put this book down if I tried—and let's be real, I didn't even consider trying.

Brock and February are total opposites in the best way. He's a rugged, lumberjack-esque bartender living the small-town life in Maine. She's a high-powered New York City handbag designer staying at a wellness resort. He's denim, flannel, and grit rather than flash. She's diamonds. And somehow, against all odds, they make perfect sense. February has huge aspirations for her company, and Brock loves his life in Maine.  Their opposites-attract connection was magnetic, full of fun banter, feels, spice, and moments that tugged hard at my heart. I didn't see that plot twist coming. I laughed, I swooned, and that taxidermy wake-up scene?  I'm still laughing, thinking about February's legendary first night in town.

Vi and Penelope delivered another heartfelt story full of fun, feels, spice, charm, and a plot twist I didn't see coming. Brock and February's journey from strangers to soulmates is one I'll be thinking about for a long time.

Kindle Book Review: Rolling 75 by Brandy Hynes

Rolling 75 by Brandy Hynes is live!  Check out my spoiler-free review of this new and intoxicating mafia romance.  Read it now using Kindle Unlimited.  

Rolling 75 by Brandy Hynes Kindle cover

Synopsis:
La Lune Noire has a pulse. It rules apart from its owners.

Backroom deals and electro swing. Extravagant parties and bootlegger tunnels.
The walls have secrets. The doors have codes.
Ashes and lies. White oak and screams. Champagne and delusions.
Hope is the gateway to hell.

Ryker
The house always wins.
Unless it’s concerning Mercy Phillips.
My brothers and I own La Lune Noire, a resort and casino that caters to the criminal underworld.
To them, we’re kings.
To her, I’m the friend she left behind.
Some say absence makes the heart grow fonder. For me, it bred obsession.
Three years searching.
One offer she can’t refuse.
Countless rolls of possibilities.
Cognac. Contracts. Coming home.
And someone lurking in the shadows, playing us all.
But the house will win again. She’s always been mine.

Mercy
That’s not even my name anymore. Much less who I am.
Other than my precious baby boy, only shards remain of that girl.
Scars from a monster.
Until Ryker Noire—my best friend and a reminder of the worst night of my life—breezes into town with a tempting proposition.
Three years running.
One haunting phone call.
Countless reasons to stay away.
But the choice isn’t mine. What a Noire wants, a Noire gets.
No matter the battle, hope is the last thing to die.

Spoiler-free Review

Rolling 75 (Noire Brothers #1)Rolling 75 by Brandy Hynes
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Rolling 75 by Brandy Hynes is a sinfully sexy, dark, and intoxicating start to the Noire Brothers series, and I’m hooked. This spin-off from the KORT  secret society universe brings back some of my favorite familiar characters while standing strong on its own. You don’t need to read the KORT series first, but if you have, knowing the connections is an extra treat. (That said, I loved the KORT series, and I highly recommend checking it out!)

In Rolling 75, Brandy spins a deliciously twisted web of love, power, secrets, lies, and unshakable family loyalty, all centered around the Noire family’s dealings and their exclusive and opulent New Orleans club, La Lune Noire. Ryker Noire and Mercy Phillips share an explosive chemistry, and their connection is darkly spicy, emotionally raw, and unforgettable. And yes, there are plenty of French 75 cocktails involved. I might need to try one myself after finishing this book.

Rolling 75 sets the tone for what promises to be another dangerously addictive series. I can’t wait to get my hands on the next Noire Brothers installment, Twelve Mule Limit (Noire Brothers Book 2), coming in March. Bravo, Brandy!
