Dr. Fellatio by Stella Rom-Com Standalone While I really enjoyed Dr. Fellatio by Stella (Stephie Walls and Leddy Harper), I have to say, I grabbed it for the title and the blurb. But it turned out they totally don’t quite fit the book. While I’m not disappointed, I just expected something totally different. I had also hoped to get some… Read More
Come As You Are by Lauren Blakely Narrated by Andi Arndt and Sebastian York Standalone Contemporary Romance Lauren Blakely never lets me down with her audiobooks and Come As You Are is no exception.

One Baby Daddy by Meghan Quinn Romantic Comedy. 3rd in an interrelated series of standalones. Meghan Quinn has spent the last couple of years at the very top of my favorite author list. Every single book (and there is a lot) was pure gold to me. Three Blind Dates, the first in the Dating by the Numbers Series was probably… Read More
After Care by LB Dunbar Narrated by Coleen Marlo First in a Connected Standalone Romance Series for Women Over 40. I absolutely LOVE a book where the couple is over 40! Being a mom of a 20-year-old touring musician, many of the stories I have thought about have to do with an older rock star. So imagine my surprise when… Read More
Wild Like The Wind (Chaos #6) by Kristen Ashley Standalone in a series. Highly recommended you read the whole series in order.

The Upside of Falling and The Downside of Love by Meghan Quinn Contemporary Romance Duet Meghan Quinn is consistently in my favorite author list for a reason. While her romantic comedies will always be what I think of her for, she slays me with her emotional romances as well, and with Top Gun being one of my favorite all-time movies,… Read More
All Your Perfects by Colleen Hoover Standalone. Women’s Fiction/Romance All Your Perfects by Colleen Hoover was probably my most anticipated read of 2018. Colleen has been one of my top favorite authors since she first published Slammed (She was at the very first Wicked Book Weekend in February 2013). So I knew to expect amazing writing and a TON of… Read More

Neighbors and The Neighborhood (Twin Estates 1 and 2) by Stylo Fantôme Narrated by Grayson Ash New/Adult/Adult Contemporary. These two must be read together. It’s been a while since I listened to Neighbors and The Neighborhood by Stylo Fantôme, and I am catching up on reviews, so this will be a little less detailed than usual. Interestingly enough, I like… Read More
Worth The Risk by K. Bromberg Narrated by Zachary Webber and Grace Grant Contemporary Romance. 3rd standalone in a series. Stands Well Alone. I picked up Worth The Risk by K. Bromberg not realizing it was the third in the Everyday Heroes series about the Malone Brothers. The first, Cuffed, about a cop, the second, Combust, about a Firefighter, and… Read More

The blurb, the cover, the author…perfect setup… Read More
Two Wedding Crashers by Meghan Quinn Romantic Comedy with Emotion. Can totally stand alone, but 2nd in a series. Three Blind Dates by Meghan Quinn was one of my favorites this year. So before I read Two Wedding Crashers, I enjoyed a re-read via audiobook, and I loved it just as much as the first time. In Three Blind Dates,… Read More

Hidden Seams by Alessandra Torre Duet Narration by Dexter Collins and Elisabeth Powers Contemporary Romance, Erotic Romance, Standalone I honestly didn’t even read the blurb when I grabbed this audiobook of Hidden Seams by Alessandra Torre. I was looking for something different than the light and fluffy I was reading and Alessandra usually does that for me. Hidden Seams was still… Read More
The Kiss Quotient by Helen Hoang Adult Contemporary. Stands alone. What a refreshing read! It’s so hard to believe The Kiss Quotient is Helen Hoang’s first book because it was smartly written, refreshing, quirky, sweet, sexy, and unputdownable. It was also nothing like what I expected. This is an adult book with some erotic scenes, make no mistake about it,… Read More
In Bed With The Beast (The Naughty Princess Club #2) by Tara Sivec Romantic Comedy. Can stand alone, but better in order. Tara Sivec has been one of my favorite authors since 2012.

Part-Time Lover by Lauren Blakely Narrated by Shane East and Grace Grant Standalone Contemporary Romance with RomCom elements.

I don’t even read the blurbs to Lauren’s books anymore. Because… Read More

While Rewrite isn’t the most unique premise, Stephanie Rose’s writing made… Read More
I Flipping Love You by Helena Hunting Contemporary Romance/RomCom. Officially third in a series but totally stands alone. The perfect summer beach read! I Flipping Love You by Helena Hunting isn’t quite what you normally expect from the author. It doesn’t have the over-the-top humor of the Pucked Series, but still has Ms. Hunting’s trademark wit in a bit of… Read More
