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
Sex Ed by ZB Heller M/M romantic comedy. Stands alone but ties into all of her other books. I am not usually a big m/m reader, but I enjoyed ZB Heller’s Tied Together so much that I decided to read Sex Ed as well. And I absolutely fell in love with the nerdy, gay hero, Jaxson (who is Moxie’s son… Read More

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.

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
Tempt The Boss by Natasha Madison Erotic Standalone Romantic Comedy OMG you guys, I freaking loved this enemies-to-lovers, single mom workplace romance! Tempt the Boss by Natasha Madison hit all the right spots when it comes to books I love. It was funny as hell, had banter, was super sexy, no unnecessary angst and I couldn’t put it down. Lauren… Read More
Catching Carly (Barley Cross Book 2) by Emma Hart Romantic Comedy. Can Easily Stand Alone. Being Brooke was one of my favorite books of 2016, so I couldn’t wait for Catching Carly by Emma Hart. Brooke was so over the top, that Carly seemed like the sane one in the friendship, so I expected more of a serious book with… 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
The Deep End: The Honey Series by Kristen Ashley Erotic Romance. First standalone in a series that is related. Throw your preconceived notions out the window. Your notions about female Dommes and male subs will be seriously challenged in The Deep End, a new erotic romance from Kristen Ashley featuring a very masculine, very alpha sub. Since Kristen Ashley is… Read More
Mack Daddy by Penelope Ward Standalone. Contemporary Romance I didn’t even read the blurb for Mack Daddy by Penelope Ward before jumping in. I saw single dad and just grabbed it. From the title and cover, I assumed it was a romantic comedy. While there were some really funny moments, this was an emotional book that covered a lot of… Read More
Dirty Dealers (Dirty Players #3) by Tia Louise 3rd in a Series. Can Stand Alone. Dirty Dealers by Tia Louise is marketed as a standalone spin-off to the Dirty Players series. While the main story stands alone, I wholeheartedly think you need to read the Dirty Players duet first for full enjoyment of the story. Even though I read the… Read More
Finding Mr. Wrong by A.M. Madden and Joanne Schwehm Standalone Contemporary Romance What a nice surprise! I have never read either A.M. Madden or Joanne Schwehm, but let me tell you, these women sure know how to write. What a fun, sexy, unique and compelling story Finding Mr. Wrong was! I have no idea how they wrote it together, because… Read More
Long Drive by Jessica Florence Contemporary Romance, Standalone (but there will be a spin-off) I love a unique read. I’m always looking for books that don’t follow the trends, so when I saw Jessica Florence was writing Long Drive, a book about a long distance truck driver, I wanted it right away! In a world of billionaires, sports stars, rock… Read More
Things My Husband Says by Barbara Blue Standalone comedy of true anecdotes I have been following Barbara Blue on Facebook and always laugh at her posts. When I saw she was putting them all together in a book, I was so excited! Things my Husband Says by Barbara Blue is not fiction. It’s not romance. (Not really). It’s just a… Read More
Raw Deal by Cherrie Lynn Adult Contemporary, first in a standalone series. It’s been a few years since I picked up a Cherrie Lynn book, but I loved her Ross Siblings Series, so I was thrilled she was starting another brother series and couldn’t grab Raw Deal fast enough. Raw Deal begins at Tommy’s funeral. He was an MMA fighter… Read More
Preppy Part Two: The Life and Death of Samuel Clearwater Gritty Contemporary Romance. Does NOT stand alone. OMG, T.M. Frazier blew me away with Preppy Part Two: The Life and Death of Samuel Clearwater. I have loved this entire series, but this is my favorite so far.

Taking Turns by J.A. Huss Contemporary Erotic Menage Romance. 1st in a series, doesn’t really stand alone. January is one of the busiest reading months ever. But when a fellow blogger who I very much trust told me to drop everything and read Taking Turns by JA Huss, I did what I never do. I put down my current read… 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
Mr. Bossy by Danika Dare Standalone Erotic Romance Novella Looking for a fast smutty read? Look no further. Let me tell you. Mr. Bossy by Danika Dare is total ladyporn, but it’s ladyporn done well and the author makes no apologies. Warning: This is a filthy, smut-filled, sheet-clawing, over-the-top, love story about finding forever in all the wrong places. This… Read More
