The girl who'd struggled to find one man now suddenly had two.

Sullivan and Will share a home, they own a business together and they share woman. Adrienne literally runs into Sullivan and he instantly has an attraction to her and knows that his best friend will also feel the same. Adrienne is more of a traditional woman. She grew up in Texas with a strict, traditional family. It would never cross her mind that she could be with two men. Will she give into the temptation?

Once I started this story I couldn't put it down. The bond between Sully and Will was so incredibly perfect on so many different levels. The bond and the connection between Sully, Will and Adrienne was beautiful. The chemistry between them was also on fire. At times I did feel a little tired of Adrienne's fear and doubts of entering into a relationship with two men but it wasn't enough to turn me off from the story.

I understand that menage stories aren't going to be for everyone. This is a hot, steamy story but the relationship and the love between the three is so incredible. This is a perfect quick, steamy, sweet read.

I love a good friends/enemies to lovers romance and Forget You, Ethan was fantastic.

Rachel and Ethan first met when they were 7 1/2 when they lived in the same neighborhood and from that very first meeting they were enemies that did everything together. They would get each other in trouble and they had each others backs. Even once they graduated high school and went on to college they still looked out for each other. When Rachel left her freshman year to spend the next 3 years of her college time doing a semester at sea her and Ethan continued to write letters back and forth to each other, providing updates on their lives. However, Rachel decided to head back to land for her senior year of college and needed a place to stay, renting a home with two other students, one of which happened to be Ethan. The chemistry and tension between these two is explosive, but will they continue to be enemies or will it become more?

My thoughts:

I absolutely loved the letters between Rachel and Ethan. It provided a funny insight into their relationship with each other. As much as they claimed to dislike each other, you could feel their bond, that they truly cared about one another.

I did feel that Ethan was a little arrogant and a little alpha male at times, but he also had his sweet moments. Rachel seemed so naive and clueless about everything, but I guess spending 3 years at sea with limited internet access could lead to that.

I laughed, I cried and I swooned while reading this story. It is a fantastic summer read and definitely adding to my favorites under the enemies to lovers category.

Is there an equation for the perfect hookup? Turns out it’s a lot more complicated than one plus one

Sophie is working on a PhD in mathematics at Harvard but she is in Maine for her sister Bella's upcoming wedding. While there she decides it is time for her to lose her virginity and hook up with some random stranger. Cain is a local lobster fisherman who spends his time in the local bars drowning his feelings in alcohol and hooking up with women.

Cain spots Sophie while she is out with her sister celebrating in a local bar and feels an attraction to her. Sophie gets her wishes and hooks up with Cain, but is one time going to be enough for these two?

I adored Sophie, she is not used hooking up or anything relationship wise. She speaks her mind and she is extremely literal. Cain, well he has had a rough go in life. His girlfriend and his identical twin both betrayed him, it shattered him. Sophie and Cain are truly opposites of each other but there is something so beautiful about their relationship and their connection.

“But you’ve saved me too. Because you’ve given me something no one else has—total acceptance. You don’t see my issues as issues.”

I couldn't put this story down, I was hooked from the very beginning. I can't wait to read book two and learn more about Bella and Christian.

This is the second book about the Jordan Brothers. The Breakup follows Christian, Cain's identical twin brother, and Bella, Sophie's sister.

Bella is a princess, not a royal princess, but she comes from a wealthy family and to anyone who is judging a book by its cover would think she is nothing more than a stuck up spoiled brat. She is in Maine with her family for her wedding, however, wedding plans are up in the air when she finds out that her fiance cheated on her.

Christian doesn't want a relationship, he just wants a one night stand. His primary focus in life is his son. The moment he lays eyes on Bella is his smitten, but also doesn't want to be with someone who is a spoiled brat. That is until he rescues Bella from the wedding she is running away from and truly gets to know the real girl.

I have to admit, I wasn't a fan of Bella in The Hookup and I wasn't much of a fan of her at the beginning of this book, but she grew on me. The more the story went on and the more we got to know Bella and how she felt growing up, the more I started to love her. Christian is a great father and wants nothing but the best from his son. I love his alpha male side and how caring he is when it comes to Bella and to his son.

I am glad we got a little more Cain and Sophie, because I absolutely loved those two. To see Christian and Cain begin to repair their damaged relationship was also great. It was time those two started to act like brothers and get over the hurt and pain they have caused each other.

I am hoping we get some more Jordan brothers because I am curious about the train caboose of fun hidden at the cabins.

Taking lives is her limit. Risking hers is mine.

Isabel is in New Orleans with a new identity trying to escape those who are out to get her. Tristan is on a mission to find out where she is and to be with her, to continue to protect her.

Tristan does find Isabel and the hatch a plan with everyone at Halo to help put an end to this. They know who ordered the hit on Isabel, they know exactly what needs to be done in order to stop this, but nothing is easy.

I am absolutely in love with this series. You have no idea what is going to happen next, where the story is going to go. Yes, you find out who ordered the hit, but things just aren't going to stop. Tristan got help from Jay and now his to go back to being a hit man, how is that going to play a role in his relationship with Isabel, can he continue to keep her safe, can he do this without taking the lives of anyone else?

I can't wait to see where this story will go and all the twists and turns we experience along the way!

Darcy and Derrick dated once before, only on the night of one of those dates Darcy was stood up and decided she needed to make a change in her life before going away to college.
A year later, their best friends are dating and Derrick wants to win Darcy back, he wants to tell her what happened that night he stood her up at the restaurant. Will Darcy be able to forgive Derrick? Will she be willing to give him a second chance at a relationship?
This is the first book I have read by Katrina Marie and I am definitely going to go back and read the other books of this series, though it is not necessary to follow along with this one. I loved seeing the struggles in their relationship. It felt real, it felt like the struggles any young couple in college may experience.
Darcy’s friendship with Cami is great. I loved that they are almost complete opposites of each other but would do anything for one another. Sign me up to join in on those Buffy nights! I loved that!!!
This isn’t a smutty romance book, it’s a beautiful story about a young couple who finds their way back to each other after a misunderstanding and the struggles they experience trying to make their new relationship work.
I look forward to the next books in this series and seeing how all the previous couples continue to grow.
