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.

#Wingman1

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.

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?

#Wingman

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.

A slow burn romance that hits all the right notes!! Ginger Scott is one of those authors who continues to deliver a story that will set hearts racing and beating to the rhythms and sounds of love. Or in this case, Ginger spins a love story that mixes passion, friendship, hopes and dreams into one beautiful heartwarming tale.

 photo f44c8f79d37ccc211fd9b903a03f14_zpsjx8fsibo.gif“I’m scared because I like this Casey Coffield. I really like him.”

In Your Dreams may sound like a simple story but Ginger creates a story that is far beyond simple. This book transfixes readers to FEEL the depth of love, friendship, family, hopes and dreams. This story is more than just your standard romance but a tale that inspires us all to believe in our dreams and passion.

#InYourDreams2

Music is life. Life is love. And Ginger Scott tells a story that mixes and weaves this theme as she tells the story of Casey Coffield and Murphy Sullivan. Two beautiful souls whose life and dreams collide in one unforgettable song. A song that will electrify and sing to your soul!!! Casey Coffield lived for music. He lived for the beats, the sounds, and that power that music can bring. And so when he saw a video of Murphy Sullivan singing a song titled In Your Dreams Casey Coffield, Casey was intrigued by the the raw beauty and seductive voice of Murphy. But Casey doesn’t recall Murphy Sullivan from high school.

#InYourDreams1

 photo f44c8f79d37ccc211fd9b903a03f14_zpsjx8fsibo.gif“We’ve not really done anything but fight through demons and take chances on dreams in one another’s presence, but I think I love her. It’s impossible. It’s entirely possible. My heart is a victim of this stress, and I know that’s the cause. But I also think maybe… maybe it’s not. I at least admit to myself that I love the idea of loving her.”

As Casey sees potential in Murphy and her musical career, these two begin to strike a friendship. And as their friendship begins to deepen, they soon find themselves falling. Falling in love and facing their fears together. So in true Ginger Scott fashion, she makes her readers see that nothing can stop you from achieving your dreams. Only you can do that.

 photo f44c8f79d37ccc211fd9b903a03f14_zpsjx8fsibo.gif“I thought her singing was perfection. I thought no other sound could compare, but when she pants for me and cries with pleasure, I come undone.”

I love that this book sends a powerful message of facing your fears and to never give up on your dreams. So if you are ready to surrender to the beat and rhythms of hope and love, then I highly recommend you to fall hard. Fall in love with Ginger’s poetic and lyrical prose. And most importantly fall in love with the sounds of love.

Confessions of a Queen B* BY Crista McHugh

***COPY GIFTED IN EXCHANGE FOR AN HONEST REVIEW***
BY GUEST REVIEWER: JD MUYNILA
RATING: ☆☆☆☆ 4 1/2 Stars ☆☆☆☆

Alexis Wyndham is the Queen Bitch at Eastline High School, aka “the level of hell Dante missed.” She built up her reputation by exposing the wrongdoings of other students and/or faculty on her blog. She is a senior now, and everyone is intimidated by her; they stay away from her if they see her on campus, and no one even sits next to her in class. She’s very content with the way things are, and even has two best friends, Richard and Morgan. They were the only people that put up with her bitchiness and still liked her, until Brett Pederson came along. One day in health class, the teacher assigned the dreaded “baby assignment” where students had to learn how much work it was to take care an infant, and Alexis was teamed up with Brett. Alexis realizes there is more to the star football player, and soon finds herself falling for him. The story revolves around the romance of them, and the side issues are not as focused on as their romance. Brett helps Alexis with the mystery of the X-rated videos of the girls locker room, but we don’t get to meet the person or know why the principal and Brett acted the way the did when they found out who it was.

I loved Alexis and Brett. Alexis is such a bitch, but in the most snarkiest, intelligent, and hilarious way. Brett is so charming and lovable; a true golden boy. Every character added their own element to the story, and the only character that didn’t seem really necessary to me was the culprit of the X-rated videos, but maybe it will be explained in the sequel; if ever there will be one. Overall, this was a very enjoyable and easy read with witty humor, extraordinary characters, and steamy romantic tension. I just wish the story it was longer!!!
