Thank you @berkleyromance @netgalley for a copy of The No-Show. I feel duped by this book but I a good way. A book about 3 women jilted on Valentine's Day by the same man. 

This book isn't a romance but we get to see Joseph's relationship with each of these women. I wasn't sure where it was going and the twist surprised me and the ending left me satisfied.

Thank you @booksparks @gallery books for a copy of The Wedding Veil. 

I loved this story from the first chapter. The story is told in current perspective from Julia and her grandmother, Bab's perspective. The past was told in Edith's perspective. 

I love the use of the Wedding veil to connect the past and present together. I adored the special relationship that Julia and Babs had and they brought out the best of each other. 

I enjoyed the historical aspect, bringing to light the accomplishments of Edith Vanderbilt. I didn't know anything about her and what she did and enjoyed this in the story.

Thank you to the author for a copy of this book. 

I loved Josie and Cory's story. It was 5 years in the making, the forced proximity and all the tension was so good. Adding in Pretzel who sounds like such an adorable pup. I adored the group of friends that they share and how supportive they were. 

So many laugh out loud moments and so many great steamy moments too.

Fantasy is not a genre I read much of it. This one was enjoyable. It was action packed and I love the tension between Tavi and Torran. The push and pull between the two and having to trust your enemy was done so well. I love how bad ass Tavi is and what a great leader she is to her crew. 

Thank you @williammorrowbooks for a copy of the Tobacco Wives. This was an interesting time period do the south and I enjoyed the idea of women working during war time. 

The audio was great and kept me entertained. This was sort of a historical edition of wealthy house wives.

This was a fun follow up to the Tita Rosie's Kitchen Mystery. This one is set around a murder of a judge in a pageant with Lila as the main character. 

I enjoyed seeing the calendar aunties and love their meddling ways. I love all the food description and now I need to have some Filipino food. 

The narration was great and I love the accent used for the aunties.

A beautiful story about dealing with grief. I loved the setting of the Almafi coast and Katy's experience there. 
The narration by Graham was perfect and I didn't want to stop listening.

Thank you to the publisher and @netgalley for a copy of this book. I loved the first book and was excited to read this. I enjoyed this one but wasn't obsessed with it. 

I enjoyed the different family dynamics and the differences between Elvin and Ray's family. 

I liked the idea of the forbidden Office romance but felt Ray knew it was wrong but kept pursuing it. For someone that cared so much about the company, it just felt odd to me. 

Parts of it dragged a bit for me and the mafia in the story felt like a distraction. I thought all the characters (except Elvin) were way more concerned about the reputation of Jade Harbor then with dealing with the mafia. 

This was a fun accidental marriage rom com. I love that part of the story was set in Dublin and how Finn and Cara met. It really didn't make sense that Finn followed Cara to California but I guess then there wouldn't be a story. 

I really liked the time they spent together in LA as they got to know each other better. Penelope was such a gem in the story too.

I have read a few books from this series and have loved them. This one had so much going on that the story for very messy in the middle.

The ending tied up too nicely and was a bit anti climatic.
