Pucked Over by Helena Hunting Humorous Contemporary Romance. Third in a series of closely related standalones. Pucked by Helena Hunting was one of my favorite books of 2015. Pucked Up was still good, but not my favorite, but Pucked Over was amazing. While Pucked may have been a little funnier, Pucked Over had the whole package – humor, heart and… Read More
Snow and Mistletoe by Alexa Riley Holiday Erotic Romance Short Story/novella I actually purchased Snow and Mistletoe by Alexa Riley over the holidays, because I love myself some short, hot, cheesy Christmas novels.

PS…You’re Mine by Alexa Riley Short Erotic Romance This is my first Alexa Riley book. I purchased Snow and Mistletoe over the holiday season because of great reviews, but I never got to it. For the first 2 weeks, PS…You’re Mine includes Snow and Mistletoe as well, and I can never read just half a book, so I just put… Read More
Sustained by Emma Chase Funny Contemporary Romance. Second in a related Series but easily stands alone. I read the first book in Emma Chase’s Legal Briefs Series, Overruled, and though I really enjoyed it a lot, I wasn’t absolutely in love. But I knew I wanted to continue the series. So when I saw Sebastian York was the narrator for Sustained,… Read More

King and Tyrant by T.M. Frazier Dark, gritty, erotic romance. These two must be read in order. Book 3 & 4 are about a different character. I am not usually a very dark reader, but I don’t mind gritty. I had heard that T.M. Frazier wrote dark romances and I was always a little scared to pick them up even… Read More
The Mother Road by Meghan Quinn Romantic Comedy. Standalone. Get your kicks on Route 66! I know I did! If you’ve read my blog at all, you know that romantic comedies are my favorite.

The Needing Moore Series by Julie A.Richman Adult contemporary trilogy. Must be read in order. I have been wanting to read the Needing Moore series by Julie Richman for a long time, but never really got a chance to commit to a 3-book series.

The Storm (The Storm 3.5) by Samantha Towle Adult Contemporary Novella. Does Not Stand Alone. The Storm Series by Samantha Towle is one of my hands-down favorite series.

The Reaper’s MC Series by Joanna Wylde has been a favorite series from the beginning, so I couldn’t wait to start reading Reaper’s Fall. But then it took me nearly 2 weeks to read. TWO WEEKS! Books never take me that long. I can’t quite put my finger on… Read More
Changing Course (Wrecked and Ruined 1) by Aly Martinez Adult Contemporary. Standalone. Aly Martinez sure knows how to deliver the feels in a super unique story. I enjoyed the audio version of Changing Course because it was narrated by both male and female, and I enjoyed both of their voices. Brett and his friend Caleb are hot young cops. One… Read More
Perfectly Imperfect by Harper Sloan Adult Contemporary Standalone Perfectly Imperfect by Harper Sloan is an intensely personal book both for Harper and myself. You see, #IamWillow. Willow was perhaps the most relatable character I have ever had the pleasure of “meeting” in a book. I think everyone can find a little of themselves in this book, but for me it… Read More
Hollywood Dirt by Alessandra Torre Standalone Contemporary Romance Hollywood Dirt by Alessandra Torre has one of my favorite themes. A hot movie star with an ordinary girl. Sounds formulaic, right? Nope, it was anything but. I read this book right before and after surgery so it has been a while, yet it stuck in my head pretty well. Cole Masten, Hollywood… Read More

Sweet Addiction and Sweet Possession by J. Daniels Adult Contemporary. Sweet Addiction can stand alone, but you must read it first if you want to read Sweet Possession.
