Joy Ride by Lauren Blakey Narrated by Sebastian York Standalone, but related to most other of her books in the past year.

Complicated by Kristen Ashley Narrated by Lance Greenfield and Erin Mallon Standalone. Exclusive to Audible until November 2017.

The Thing About Love by Julie James Standalone Contemporary Romance I read a few of Julie James FBI/US Attorney series about 5 years ago, and remember enjoying them, so when I saw she had a new FBI book this month, The Thing About Love, I grabbed it and I’m glad I did. It doesn’t seem to be related to the series, as… Read More
Sinful Intent by Chelle Bliss Contemporary Romantic Suspense. 1st standalone in a series. Spin off of Men of Inked Series.

Co-WRECKER by Meghan Quinn Standalone Contemporary Romantic Comedy This is getting ridiculous. I give out very few 5++++ star reviews, but this is #2 this year, and guess who the first went to? Meghan Quinn. And the books couldn’t have been more different. Co-Wrecker by Meghan Quinn is a pretty light romantic comedy, and let me tell you, I read… Read More

Pucked Off by Helena Hunting Narrated by Rose Dioro and Jacob Morgan 6th in a series but can TOTALLY stand alone. Wow! Where the heck did this book come from?

Royally Matched by Emma Chase Narrated by Andi Arndt & Shane East Romantic Comedy/Contemporary Romance. Second in a related series. Can stand alone. Emma Chase is an auto buy author for me.

Wardrobe Malfunction by Samantha Towle Standalone. Contemporary Romance/Romantic Comedy. I have to admit, I love a Hollywood romance. You know, the kind when the movie star falls for the regular girl. It’s a trope that’s been done a lot, but since Samantha Towle brought me one of my favorite Rock Star Series, I figured she could do the same with… Read More
