Royally Endowed by Emma Chase Narrated by Andi Arndt and Shane East 3rd Standalone in an Interrelated Series. Contemporary Romance Emma Chase never fails to write a book I absolutely love, and Royally Endowed is no exception.

Beautiful Mistake by Vi Keeland Narrated by Sebastian York & Andi Arndt Standalone Contemporary Romance I have read a couple of Vi Keeland books before, and they strike me as perfectly fun, sexy romcoms. Beautiful Mistake was getting so much buzz, that I grabbed it without reading the blurb. It’s a cute blurb that makes the book seem light and… Read More
My Best Friend’s Ex by Meghan Quinn Standalone Romantic Comedy Meghan Quinn has become one of my favorite authors, and I will read whatever she writes. Co-Wrecker was one of my favorite books of the year, but I didn’t even realize that My Best Friend’s Ex was a spin-off of it until I had read a good chunk of it…. Read More

Buns by Alice Clayton Narrated by Elizabeth Louise w/ a cameo by Jason Carpenter 3rd in a series of related standalone. Can easily stand alone. Romantic Comedy.

The Story of Us by Tara Sivec Standalone Emotional Second Chance Romance Tara Sivec can write the hell out of every genre she attempts. Though her comedy series are some of my favorite all-time books, two of her emotional dramas are up there too. If you’ve read the amazing Fisher’s Light, you know what Tara can do with a military… Read More
The Farthest Edge by Kristen Ashley Erotic BDSM (female Domme) romance. Interconnected Standalone. The Farthest Edge is the second standalone in the erotic BDSM series, The Honey Series by Kristen Ashley. Though it is a new couple and can stand on it’s own, I think it is a MUCH richer story if you read The Deep End first. The thing… Read More
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. I have read all of her books and not once have I been disappointed. Her audiobooks are amazing too, and she has a knack for picking great narrators…. Read More
Three Simple Rules by Nikki Sloane Narrated by Muffy Newton 1st in an interrelated series. Can standalone but leaves you hanging for the next couple. Some of my book besties recommended The Blindfold Club Series to me many times. I have added it to my sale lists and it’s always been one of those books that I bought but never got… Read More
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
Below Deck by Tara Sivec Erotic Romance. Standalone. Get ready to get wet! (boat pun). I had no idea Below Deck by Tara Sivec was going to be such a hot little vacation in the Virgin Islands! I knew she was writing a romance on a luxury yacht after watching the reality show Below Deck, but I had no idea… Read More
Real Good Man and Real Good Love (The Real Duet) by Meghan March Narrated by Elena Wolfe and Sebastian York Erotic Romance. Must be read together. Spin off of Dirty Billionaire and Dirty Girl Series but you don’t need to read them first. There is a reason that Meghan March became a new favorite author for me in 2016 and Real… Read More
Retreat by Jay Crownover Standalone first in series. Romance/Adventure. I have so many friends who swear by Jay Crownover, but because all her books are connected and I didn’t want to start at the beginning, I never picked one up (OK, I own a bunch, but never got to read them). So as soon as I saw this surprise release,… Read More
The Only One by Lauren Blakely Standalone Contemporary Romance Novella. Lauren Blakely bookended 2016 with amazing reads all year long. She started the year phenomenally well with top favorite Big Rock, and ended it with The Only One, and I loved every book in between. She has become a “drop everything to read” author, and her books are pretty much… Read More
Walk of Shame 1-3 by Victoria Ashley Narrated by Alexandra Shawnee and Becket Grey Full Series, Erotic Romance Victoria Ashley was on my 2016 TBR list all year long.

Out of Bounds by Lauren Blakely Contemporary Romance Standalone Novella Lauren Blakely has become one of my top 5 authors in 2016, which means I will pick up anything she writes, even a football romance.

The Prince & The Player and A Player for a Princess (Dirty Players Duet) by Tia Louise Must be read together. I am going to review both The Prince & The Player and A Player for a Princess by Tia Louise together since they make up the Dirty Players Duet, and can not be read without each other. Let me… Read More
No Trespassing by K.D. Robichaux Standalone Contemporary Romance Millionaires, rock stars, motorcycles, stepbrothers, teachers, Doms, tattooists, porn stars, cops, firemen, sports stars… we’ve read them and loved them. But when something different comes along, it’s like a breath of fresh air. I had such a great time reading No Trespassing by KD Robichaux. She is a new author to me,… Read More
Size Matters by Alison Bliss Standalone Romantic Comedy with a Curvy Heroine Before I begin this review, I want to give a little background. I am plus-sized and miserable about it.

Marriage Games by C.D. Reiss Narrated Duet Style by Sebastian York and Elena Wolfe Part one of Two. Erotic Romance.

Pull Me Close by Sidney Halston Standalone Contemporary Romance Pull Me Close by Sidney Halston was a super unique, emotional read that has a lot of truth to it (see the author interview below). Set in Miami, what makes this story so unique is the severe mental illness the heroine suffers from. Is that the right term? Well, yes and… Read More
Swear on This Life by Renée Carlino Standalone Romance that is mostly New Adult Swear on This Life by Renee Carlino was one of my most recommended books of 2016.
