Checkmate: This is Effortless is the concluding duet story of Drew and Courtney. In order to fully understand what is going on you MUST have read the first book since this second installment picks off where it last left off. So with that out of the way, now onto my review.

Friends to lovers!!! Ummm, hell yeah!!!! Excuse the excitement over here but Kennedy Fox delivers a fun, sexy and sassy love story of two former roommates who became best friends to now lovers. Drew and Courtney's story is filled with lots of highs and unwanted drama from a crazy ex that doesn't get the memo time to move on. But hey, crazy Mia couldn't stop the love that Courtney had for her deputy.

The devotion and commitment Drew and Courtney had for each for each other was legit. They were that couple who had been tested over and over again with unwanted drama and craziness but found a way to survive. So with a blend of craziness and sexiness, Kennedy Fox will have readers devouring this book in one sitting as this book was one of those fast reads. All in all this book was fun and steamy and has me begging for more especially with Kayla and Logan's book up next.

Emma Hart has readers drunk in love with her newest romantic comedy, Mixed Up. Hart indeed concocts a new kind of romance with her sassy and vibrant characters that makes a big splash onto the pages as she has readers like myself intoxicated with her fresh writing. With her wicked sense of humor, Hart mixed up a love story that combines friendship, banter, family, and good times.

One thing about Emma Hart that I love is that she isn’t afraid to write a strong heroine and Raven Archer is one fierce and sassy fireball that isn’t afraid to get dirty. Raven owns Dirty, a cocktail bar restaurant. While Raven has no problems mixing and serving up the drinks, she runs into a problem when she can’t find a chef to help run the food side of the business. So when her brother suggest her to ask for help from Parker Hamilton, her brother’s best friend who happens to be a Michelin rated chef, Raven has to suck up her pride and hand over the reigns to Parker to help her. Did I mention that Parker and Raven have this hate/love relationship? So you guessed it...lots of banter that possibly leads to romance? Will Raven find herself mixing up a new concoction that is called Parker?

Mixed Up was a sexy, fun, and playful romance that will have you giggling and drunk in love with Hart’s writing. The characters were intoxicating as each serves up their charm to the story. So if you are looking for a story that will make you hungry and thirsty for more of Hart’s romantic comedy then this is the book for you.

Ain’t Sawyer Bennett precious? Well, her alter ego Juliette Poe surely is as she delivers one charming second chance love story in Ain’t He Precious? This novella was a sweet sticky molasses of love, family charm, second chances, and good old Southern hospitality.

My knees are pressed in tight against his hips, my fingertips digging down into his shoulders, and my heart skittering out of control. Not just because of the amazing physical sensations that are completely overwhelming me, but because I am connected to Ry Powers. My first love. My truest love.”

It’s no secret that I am huge Sawyer Bennett fan and so when I found out that she was writing as Juliette Poe, I knew regardless of whatever genre it is that I had to read it. And let me tell you ladies and gentlemen, this book is a good one. If you like your romance sweet, sentimental, and emotional then this book is definitely for you. Who wouldn’t want to read a feel good second chance love story?

After graduating from Harvard Law School, Trixie Mancinkus gave up her chance to be a big time city lawyer and instead decided to move back home to Whynot, North Carolina to open up her small town practice. She loves her family and Southern roots so it was something she couldn’t bear to part with. While her career was something that she was deeply proud of, a part of her was missing.

Ryland Powers was the only man that Trixie loved. He was her everything but they had to go on their separate ways since they both wanted different things. He wanted to be a big city lawyer in Boston and Trixie wanted to be home with her family. So fast forward to eleven years later, Trixie needs Ryland to help her with a client and so she invites him to Whynot, North Carolina.

The feelings that Trixie and Ryland had for each other are still there. Eleven years couldn’t erase their feelings and love for each other but with Ryland living in Boston, will Trixie be able to leave her family, her hometown, and her practice behind in order to be Ryland? And will Ryland will be able to leave his city life for small town farm life?

But after eleven years of living what I felt was a magnificent existence, one magical moment with Ry has me questioning everything I thought I knew about myself.”

Ain’t He Precious? was indeed precious. This book was a sugary goodness of sweet tea. Once you had a taste of this book, you can’t help but want more or in this case drink more of Juliette Poe’s swoonworthy Southern love story. Ryland and Trixie’s second chance at love made my heart burst with so much love. I absolutely adored this book because not only did Juliette Poe allowed readers to feel the growth of her characters but she allowed readers to fall in love with a precious love, bond, and connection. So if you are looking for a story where the love is sticky as molasses and the characters are charming as hell then I suggest you better be clicking Ain’t He Precious?

A raw, honest, sexy, palpable romance that was mixed with humor, friendship, love, passion, strength, and confidence. Kylie Scott continues to intoxicate readers with her words, charismatic characters, and heartfelt love stories and in her newest release, Twist, she has readers like myself drunk in love with with Joe Collins.

Forget a Tom Collins because the only thing that I want to be drinking is Joe Collins. When Joe helped set up his younger brother’s dating profile, he didn’t think he would easily develop an email pen-pal friendship with Alex Parks. For six months, “Eric” and Alex would exchange messages and inform each other of their lives.

So when Alex decides to make a surprise visit, she expected Eric to be thrilled but what she found instead was an Eric, who didn’t know who she was. It turns out that Joe has been the one exchanging emails with Alex. Hurt and disappointed, Alex wanted to get away as fast as she could but when she caught the flu, it was Joe who showed up at her hotel making sure she was okay. Joe never intended for Alex to get hurt and be made a fool of so he tries to show her that he truly cared for her. As Joe tried to show Alex, "the real Joe," Alex begins to fall for him and his big heart. What happens when her guarded walls begins to crumble and she opens her heart to Joe?

I seriously can’t get enough of Twist. This book was not only a fun read but also blends an emotional and heartfelt aspect that I found myself drawn to. I love seeing the connection between Joe and Alex through their past emails and how they still have that bond that carried through as they got to know each other in person. Kylie Scott did a remarkable job showcasing the chemistry as she splashes laughter and vulnerability in a sexy and raw manner. So if you are looking for a story that blends friendship, love and a twist then I would highly recommend you to read this beautiful love story of Joe and Alex.

Wow, another hot book by Elizabeth Brown. When I read that another book from this series was coming I was stoked. I’m so glad I read it. Mark and Winnie’s love story is not only fun, but super sexy. Winnie is one smart mouth, dirty, tough chick. She was like one of the guys, she hit it and quit it. She never hid it when a guy caught her eyes, she goes for it as quickly as she could. She is straight forward tells whoever the flavor of the night, what she wants and gets it, nothing off limit. She was so much fun to read and I love her best friend Ainsley with her husband Lamb from book 2. I will forever remember Winnie making Ainsley look at her Vag to make sure she didn’t have STD. Poor Ains, couldn’t say no when Winnie used the best friend line “I would do it for you”. LOL.

Winnie and Mark’s story completely took off after their 2nd meeting in the Men’s bathroom. Winnie getting off in one of the stalls and dropping her bf that Mark had to pick up and clean. I swear Winnie is the biggest slut, she couldn’t get enough of the D*cks. “Well, okay, so he was a dick. That’s alright. I could handle dicks. Big ones. Small ones. Seemed that my subconscious liked big dicks the best though.” Their love story started with lots and lots of sex and a lot of funny moments. Somewhere in the middle of the story, it went serious and I love where it went. Mark made me fall in love with him more and more with every turn of a page. Don’t get me wrong, I love Mark, but Ryan from book 1 still has my heart completely. I was completely sucked into this forbidden love story, that I couldn’t put it down. This is a definite must read for all readers who love romance, that’s a little dirty with lots of laughs.
