“In our world? Every woman is beautiful. Every woman has a purpose. Every woman has one guy she’s been after, one unobtainable piece of man art. Just think of the two of us as the brokers. You’re welcome, world.”

RACHEL VAN DYKEN!!!!!! OMG...I AM IN LOVE!!!! Can you hear me fangirling over here from San Francisco? Yes, that’s right you wrote the perfect playbook!!! You have masterfully crafted a story that was absolutely fun, sexy, sweet and hilarious!!!! And did I forget to mention, I had a big fat smile on my face the whole time I was reading this book.

The Matchmaker’s Playbook was outrageously fun, witty, and playful. This book is one of those reads that you will be devouring in one sitting. Trust me, you will fall madly in love with Ian and his buddy, Lex as they are your personal matchmakers.

Ian Hunter runs Wingmen Inc, a successful and secretive word-of-mouth dating service. Ian with the help of his wingman, Lex runs a service that helps shy and insecure women win the hearts of their crushes. So if there is a guy that catches your eye and you are vying to get their attention...enter Ian and Lex. With their playbook of rules, they have a great track record of matchmaking. And as added bonus, these two playboys has no problem following their playbook of rules that is until Ian meets Blake Olsen.

“That’s what Wingmen Inc. is about. What if you could study a playbook for dating? We have rules for every type of relationship scenario, and our process works . Basically, we created a dating version of Minority Report.”

Blake is madly in love and infatuated with her childhood friend. She even moved just to attend the same college as her crush but it seems her crush is not taking notice of her so Blake decides to use Wingmen Inc.

When Ian takes on Blake as his client, he never thought he could want this girl for just himself. Blake was different. She was fun, sexy and witty but just need to get pushed in the right direction to build her confidence when talking to her crush. As Ian transform Blake’s style, he begins to see her in a whole new light. He wants her. Will Ian be able to help Blake get her crush when he wants her for himself? Will Ian be striking out or will he find himself making one final play to get the girl?

The Matchmaker’s Playbook was utterly addicting!!!! This book had it all from banter, humor, charm, steam, and romance. I loved that RVD wrote this book in Ian’s POV. It allowed readers to get a fun insight on the inner workings of what he goes through when it comes to his dating services and Blake. So if you are looking for a book where an author wrote a perfect blend of humor, sass, romance, and charm then I urge you to read this book. Maybe some rules are meant to be broken, when it comes to love.

☆☆☆☆ 4.5 Stars ☆☆☆☆

The Matchmaker’s Playbook was fun and sweet. A manwhore turn lover for the right girl. I really enjoyed reading Blake turn from an ugly duckling to a beautiful swan with the help of playboy Ian. Blake was such a fun character to read, a vixen in hiding. The back and forth between Blake and Ian was loads of fun to read. Going through each and every rule in Ian and Lex playbook was interesting. Of course not only did I enjoy Blake’s changes, I really loved the changes that Ian made because of Blake. Ian did a complete 180 from a manwhore into this sweet and caring guy. Of course there’s the sexy moments between the two, without getting too dirty. Such a fun book, I can’t wait to read book 2.

Sexy, witty, and cleverly written!! Magnificient Bastard by Lili Valente was a magnificently fun read!! Right off the opening pages, you are taken on a fun-filled crazy humor male POV of a man who runs a service that helps women gets back at their ex and help them find that confidence to get back out there in the dating world.

“When you’re down and out and your heart has been ripped to shreds by an asshole with a dickish-side a mile wide, you don’t need Prince Charming. You need a man who’s not afraid to get his hands dirty, a man who can teach Mr. Wrong a thing or two about what it feels like to be deceived, betrayed, and laid low by the one person in the world you thought you could trust. What you need is a Magnificent Bastard, your very own one-man vengeance machine. Love isn’t a fairy tale, sweetheart; it’s war, and now you’ve got a soldier with an anti-asshole missile on your side.”

So what happens when Bash aka Magnificent Bastard finds himself doing a personal favor for his virtual personal assistant, Penny? Well what happens is a riot of humor, banter, and romance of course. Bash never thought he would love again or want to love again that is until he finally meets Penny in person and tries to help her out by being her date for her mother’s wedding. Did I mention that Penny’s mother is marrying Penny’s ex-boyfriend? So yeah…hot mess of a situation!!! And so Bash will do what he does best be a magnificent bastard or will he find himself being the magnificent real life boyfriend?

If you are looking for a fun read that has humor, steam, and oh yeah a magnificent bastard, then go read this book!!!!

Boob Squeeze!!!!! Yes, I can’t believe I wrote that in my review but since this is a Meghan Quinn book, she is the only author that can completely understand why. Yes, I adore and love this author. It just felt like yesterday when I was reading her book, The Virgin Romance Novelist and laughing like a crazy woman. So you could imagine my excitement when I found out she was doing a sequel. Yes, there was lots of fangirling when Meghan sent me The Randy Romance Novelist.

So if you read the first book, Rosie finally did it. Yeah, she finally had sex and can finally put away her V-card membership. And so in this crazy, hilarious, smart and witty sequel, Rosie is back at it again and this time Rosie is one horny woman. Yes, losing her virginity to Henry, the love of her life has made Rosie sex craze. I am talking about this woman has a sexual appetite that will make porn stars bowing to Rosie’s prowess. Well, Rosie can’t take all the credit since she has to thank Henry and his skills.

No longer a virgin, Rosie is over the moon. And she has many reasons to be happy but the most important reason is she is madly in love with Henry. And so what could burst their happy bubble? Well is there such thing as too much sex. In the case for Rosie and Henry, their sexual appetite for sex everyday has led to Rosie being insecure when she questions when Henry doesn’t want to have sex for the fourth time of the day and also when she discovers Henry’s ex-girlfriend was brought on to work on a project at Henry’s work. And then to top it off, Rosie is hormonal and may have a purple vagina. Yes, I said purple and if you are saying WTH then I highly recommend you to #oneclick this book now. Discover why Henry and Rosie are the best couple EVER!!!!

In all honesty, The Randy Romance Novelist needs to be read, savored, and experienced. Meghan Quinn has once again delivered a romantic comedy that has it all. So if you are looking for a snarky, smart, sassy, witty, and ridiculously crazy entertaining read then The Randy Romance Novelist is the book for you. All there is left to say, go on this crazy sexual journey with Rosie and Henry.

Ahhh…it’s official I am addicted to Penny Reid and L.H. Cosway. Seriously, I can’t even begin to express how much I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE The Player And The Pixie. This book was downright fun, smart and sexy!!!! Everything about this book from the writing, the characters, the storyline, and the dialogue were PERFECT.

“Fine. I want you to teach me the art of foreplay and sex. I want you to teach me where to touch, how to touch, how long. I want you to teach me about pressure, licking, and sucking, and—”

Right off the opening pages, I fell in love with the characters. It usually takes me awhile to love both the hero and heroine but Ms. Cosway and Ms. Reid did a fabulous job in writing and describing Lucy Fitzpatrick and Sean Cassidy. I was instantly drawn to the deep emotional pull, humor, banter, and sexy moments.

Lucy Fitzpatrick is the younger sister of Ronan Fitzpatrick, Ireland's Rugby star athlete. Lucy loves Ronan and all the success that he has achieved. But when it comes to her mother, they have a relationship that is not very motherly. It is the kind of relationship that they both love each other but Lucy's mother constantly nitpicks everything Lucy does. She never fails to scrutinize Lucy's shortcomings in her career and love life. Feeling the pressure to be perfect, Lucy is driven to an unhealthy compulsion habit.

Sean Cassidy is somewhat the black sheep of the Ireland's Rugby team ever since he tried to get Ronan kicked off the team. Ronan and Sean do not like each other. With that being said, Sean enjoys every opportunity he can to push Ronan’s buttons. Not only is Sean the black sheep of his team, he is also notorious as being a player. But this womanizer has one secret, he is a horrible lover. I mean downright awful that is until Lucy Fitzpatrick walks into his life.

“THERE’S THIS IDIOM I’d never fully appreciated until I sat across from lovely Lucy Fitzpatrick and asked her to teach me how to fuck, good and proper. Go for broke. Last night had been a nightmare. Then it had been a dream. And she’d been an angel. My angel.”

Lucy can’t explain her growing attraction to Sean. She knows she should stay away but as she gets to know him, she sees the real Sean. Not Sean, the cocky arrogant player but Sean, the man who is lonely and has a big heart. The man who loves dogs. The man who has dedicated his life to rugby in order to prove his worth to his family. The man who is in search for love. The man who is looking for a friend. And for the first time, Sean found the one person who sees the real him. Lucy Fitzpatrick. The girl who has a rainbow color of hair. The girl who loves dogs. The younger sister of his nemesis.

“I wanted more. I wanted a shot with Lucy. I wanted to go for broke. But she didn’t want that with me, not enough to make a mess of her life. I was too risky. I couldn’t fault her logic, but I gave myself permission to hate it.”

When Lucy and Sean kissed for the first time, it was hot. Passionate. It was sexy. But when Sean and Lucy begin the act of sex, Lucy discovers Sean is lacking in proper sexual foreplay education. Basically, he sucks. Sean is well aware that he is bad and so he ask Lucy to teach him. As Lucy agrees to teach him, she makes him well aware that Ronan can never find out about it. But as Sean and Lucy embark on his foreplay lessons, a deep emotional connection begins to develop. Soon Sean and Lucy are in that phase of something more. But Lucy’s fear of her brother finding out and the added stress from her mother is what’s stopping her from being truly happy. Can Lucy admit her real feelings for Sean? And can Sean show Lucy that she is not just another notch on his bedpost but instead that she is his everything?

I LOVE The Player And The Pixie.. I love Sean Cassidy. I love Lucy Fitzpatrick. I love this book. Yes, I will say it again. I love this book and adore the creative writing duo Penny Reid and LH Cosway. If you love a book that is just as colorful as Lucy’s hair, then this book is for you. It had it all from humor, banter, romance, and raw emotions. All I can say, The Player And The Pixie is a smart fun romance with all the FEELS.

“I like the way he looks at me, like he gets me. Like he wants more of me. Like I interest him.”

There was nothing wrong with Jana Aston’s debut book, WRONG….. right? It was sexy, lighthearted, playful, and embarrassingly fun!!!!! So after we were steered in the wrong direction, Jana decides to steer her readers in the right direction with her newest standalone, RIGHT.

Whatever direction Jana takes her readers on whether it’s wrong or right, just be sure to know that Jana Aston can write. Yes, this cat loving author can write a fresh, smart, modern romantic comedy that will have you laughing out loud. Seriously, I thought WRONG was wickedly entertaining but I got to say that I am favoring and loving RIGHT as my new favorite romantic comedy from Jana. This book was oooooh so right!!!!!

“I want your cock inside of me, Sawyer. I want you to sink it into me, with my legs stretched wide and all of your weight on top of me. And then I want to feel you move. I wanna feel you sliding out of me and then slamming back inside. That’s what I want.”

I know you are going to be asking me how can this book be RIGHT? Well, the answer to that is simple. Jana has once again created a fun, sexy, flirty, smart, and deliriously entertaining read. You gotta love a heroine that is confident, sexy, and knows what she wants. Everly may have thought she found Mr. Right but as it turns out, Mr. Right might be someone completely different. Who needs a professor when Mr. Right might be a smart-mouth, almost billionaire, dirty talking alpha hero. Right? Everly may have been wrong with her first choice of Mr. Right but she will soon discover she will be making all the right choices. So if you are ready to fall head over heels or in this case ”boots” in love with a witty and fun romantic comedy, then you need to read RIGHT.

“I can edit the vision I had for my future, for our future. Just as long as you’re in it.”

As I sit here writing my review with my freshly new painted nails that is aptly titled, Cake Hole, all I got to say go read RIGHT. Meet Everly and find out who is her Mr. RIGHT. And as an added bonus for all those nail polish lovers out there like myself, Jana does mention some amazing nail polish colors in her book. And also, Mr. Grind Me aka Dr. Luke and Sophie makes an appearance. So there is nothing wrong about that...right?
