REVIEW: Lessons from a One-Night Stand by Piper Rayne
Sandy M’s review of Lessons from a One-Night Stand (The Baileys, Book 1) by Piper Rayne
Contemporary Romance Audiobook published by Audible 11 Mar 19
At first I was pretty irritated that my car CD player suddenly stopping working. I listen to audiobooks constantly in the car. So I did the next best thing – plugged in my iPhone and pulled up some audiobooks to choose from. I came across this book and thought, “Why not?” I’ve never read Piper Rayne, and I’m always looking for new authors to read. After the first few pages, I was completely invested in this crazy family and look forward to getting into all their stories in the future.
REVIEW: The Ghost Illusion by Kat Martin
Veena’s review of The Ghost Illusion by Kat Martin
Romantic Suspense published by Kensington 26 Sep 23
It took me a while to warm up to this book. For some reason, I found the beginning very dark and almost frightening. I suppose that’s actually a good testimonial for a ghost story. Having set it aside for some time, I am glad that I went back to it, because it sucked me in and kept me on the edge of darkness, romance and all.

REVIEW: The Blonde Identity by Ally Carter
Kaitlyn‘s review of The Blonde Identity by Ally Carter
Contemporary Romance published by Avon 8 Aug 23
Let me start by saying the YA spy school for girls series, Gallagher Girls, by @theallycarter was one of my all-time favorite series growing up. When I saw she wrote an adult spy romcom, I literally squealed in excitement. I never worked so fast to get an ARC in my life and then threw my TBR out the window to immediately devour this book.

Sandy M’s review of A Heart Restrained (Scarred Hearts, Book 3) by Jennifer Wilck
Contemporary Romance published by The Wild Rose Press 27 Mar 23
This is my first book by Jennifer Wilck. I like the premise of the story and I enjoyed Caleb and Fiona as they get to know one another throughout the book, starting as adversaries and slowly making their way toward a happy and satisfying relationship. Unfortunately, it’s Caleb who has problems getting to the same place Fiona is.

REVIEW: Bride by Ali Hazelwood
Kaitlyn‘s review of Bride by Ali Hazelwood
Paranormal Romance published by Ali Hazelwood 6 Feb 24
If we’re going off vibes, this was phenomenal, and I had a blast reading it. If we’re being objective, then I think the fantasy world building could have been improved, because the modern world setting still left me with a lot of questions. But I had the best time binging this, so vibes win out.
