Tangled Hearts is a riot. Alpha male versus sassy chick. This book is not only hot, but loads of fun. This is my first Sarah O’Rourke book and I cannot wait to read more. I truly enjoyed this super sexy romantic comedy.

Callum and Melody love story starts out with their super fun banter at a coffee shop. Which was also my favorite conversation between Cal and Melody. The banter between those two was always wildly entertaining. Even when they fell madly in love with each other, their crazy conversations never stopped. So they definitely kept me hooked on their story and wondered what crazy things they would say next. They were always back and forth and Cal always wants to be the winner, but there are times when Melody doesn’t back down, when there is something she really wanted. I loved how strong both characters are and their super sexy times together. Thx for sharing your book with me Saray O’Rourke.

A sweet light funny romantic read!!!!! Rachel Van Dyken has once again charmed her readers with this endearing romantic comedy!!!! And how could she not when she introduces characters like Max, Reid and Jordan into the mix!!! The Consequence of Seduction is a sweet love story that explores the madness they call LOVE. And in this particular love story, it is about seeing the person who has been standing by your side in a whole new light!

“I had no clue I'd be sealing my fate. No clue that the plain girl twisting the straw between her pretty little fingers would destroy me.”

While this third installment can be read as a standalone, I highly urge you to read the previous two books in order to gain a better understanding of the character dynamics of the secondary characters. Also, the first two books were just as sweet and hilarious as The Consequence of Seduction. So what can you expect in this book? Well, for one be prepared for MAX!!! I think this character needs to come with a warning label as he and Reid will have you laughing and giggling with the antics these two come up with. And secondly, be prepared to fall in love with Reid and Jordan as these two discover that something so wrong can be so right!! And there is nothing wrong in falling in love with the girl, who has been at your side.

So if you are looking for a book that is filled with an abundance of laughter, charm and sweet romance then look no further because RVD has written the book for you.

“I love you wildly, madly, completely, Fiona Archer,” he growled, then groaned on a broken breath. “I love you always.”

Have you ever read a book from an author who you know you can always count on to leave a big fat smile on your face? Well, Penny Reid is that author for me. In her newest installment to the Knitting in the City, Ms. Reid has knitted and weaved a story with so much depth, honesty, humor, sacrifices, and LOVE.

If you read the prequel, Ninja at First Sight then you were introduced to how Greg and Fiona met and fell in love in college. Readers got to see a young Greg and Fiona discovering their love, passion, and bond for one another. A bond that was tangible and palpable from the beginning. A bond that has been tested and will be tested as they embark on their lives together as a married couple. And so in Happily Ever Ninja, we are reunited with Greg, Fiona and their two kids.

“My heart keeps discovering new ways to love you.”

The love Greg and Fiona have for each other is just as strong the day that they got married. Without a doubt, these two completed each other and were each other's heart and soul. But after 14 years of marriage, it seems Fiona has all the weight on her shoulders. She has to be wife, mom, friend, and basically a ninja to keep the household in order. Fiona understands that Greg has to work for months off site for an oil company, so all the responsibilities back home in Chicago falls into her hands. With everything on her plate, all the stress and burden begins to pile up. So when Greg returns home for a few days, Fiona is thrilled to have her husband, best friend, and lover back but she is also sad knowing that he will leave again. As with any normal married couple, Fiona and Greg gets into a fight right before he leaves for work, and so it leaves an unsettling feeling among both of them.

“If Greg died, I would die, too. I know I would. We have been married for fourteen years. He is my soul.He truly was. He’d been my first real home, my first unconditional anything. And he still was. ”

So when Fiona gets a phone call that Greg has been kidnapped in Nigeria, Fiona doesn't hesitate to get on the plane and go rescue her husband. With her former CIA training and the help of her friends, Fiona rescues Greg from the kidnappers but along the way to safety, their marriage and bonds of trust is tested. Will Fiona and Greg rediscover what is needed to fix their marriage?

“I loved him and I always would. But that was the easy part. Working to deserve him and demanding that he work to deserve me, everyday—that was hard. But he was worth it. And I was worth it.”

Happily Ever Ninja was absolutely BRILLIANT. Ms. Reid has written a story that captures the true raw essence of what a real marriage is about. She showcases the ups and downs and doesn't sugarcoat any of it. What drew me into this story was how REAL the story of Fiona and Greg Archer was. It was refreshing to see a couple really work on their issues and express to each other how they hurt one another emotionally without realizing it. So if you are looking for a book that weaves raw emotions, humor, love, sacrifices, and communication then I highly recommend you to read Happily Ever Ninja. This book will showcase that in order to knit a happy marriage, both must find a common thread and for Greg and Fiona, their marriage may have got tangled up in a ball of yarn but once they figured out how to untangle the threads, they were able to knit their happily ever after ninja style.

“A shiver rippled down her spine at the intensity in his gaze. It was more than simply reading the lust on her face. It was like he was looking right into her mind. Into her soul. Like he was seeing something in her that she’d been certain didn’t exist anymore. It was unnerving and strangely intimate. It stirred her. Made her feel … things. ”

Love Struck hits all the right notes!!!!! The writing duo, Laurelin McGee has once again crafted a sweet, lighthearted romance that will be playing the song and melody to our hearts. In this delightful and charming tale, Laurelin McGee beautifully weaves a story with so much depth, raw emotions, and friendship.

They say music can be food for the soul. And so Laurelin McGee will nourish our hunger for romance as they weave a story that hits all the right chords!!! Two strangers. Two musicians. Two hearts. And one beautifully written love story. The title alone,Love Struck, fits perfectly to describe the story of two musicians who not only were able to produce a beautiful song together but also discovering what has been standing in front of them. LOVE.

“Because I’m not done telling you what else I have to fight for .” Still holding her hand , he walked closer to her until his front was nearly pressed along her back and his mouth was near her ear. Lacy could barely breathe, her voice a whisper when she asked, “What’s that?”“You.”

LOVE STRUCK is definitely your feel good lighthearted romance. I loved the modern concept of weaving a story of two people who are unaware that they are online friends when they meet each other in real life. I love that Laurelin McGee allowed readers to FEEL for the characters of Lacy and Eli. The sexual chemistry, raw vulnerability and love that these two had for each other was easily felt since their palpable and tangible connection was felt right off the opening pages when these two first developed a strong online friendship.

“I did. I fell completely. I love music, you know that, and you make me feel like there’s music everywhere. In crab shacks and blanket forts. And I’m not talking about the sound, but the feeling. Possibility hiding behind every moment. The feeling that music gives me—you give me that. You’re my songbird.”

So in the case of this story not only did the authors create a story that hit all the right notes but also an online love connection!!! I adore this sweet, light, funny and emotional read since it kind of reminded me of the movie, You Got Mail, since Eli and Lacy had this whole modern take of two people finding comfort, love, support and friendship in their online exchanges. So if you are looking for a story that where love is the music to the heart then this book might be for you. Be prepared to get Love Struck by the gorgeous prose of Laurelin McGee.
