What Do You See? Is a book that will stick with me for a while. It is so different from anything that I have ever read before and I loved every single moment of it. For a debut novel this story is ABSOLUTELY STUNNING. It literally makes you open your eyes and think about the world around you.
Claire had everything going for her. She was a student, track star and an Olympic hopeful. Until one single accident forever changed her life. She is on a downward spiral and shutting out those who are closest to her. Jake is a soccer star, but his life isn’t perfect. He has gone through his own struggles, but there is something about Claire. He wants to know her secrets and he wants to be her support. Will she be able to let him in?
This story. It is raw, emotional, beautiful, breathtaking, sweet, heartbreaking, full of hope and love. Claire and Jake are real. Their relationship isn’t perfect, they struggle as a couple and individually many times throughout the story. What I love most about Jake? The fact that he isn’t willing to give up when times get rough, he is there every single step of the way. Trying to find a way to help her and support her. Claire is a fighter. I can’t even begin to imagine what she is feeling and experiencing but her story is inspirational. Her struggles felt real. You could feel her pain and hurt throughout the entire story.
Claire’s brothers, Cole and Liam, were fantastic secondary characters and I can’t wait for their stories. I hope that we get more Claire and Jake in those stories as well.
This story is so much more than a contemporary romance novel, it is inspirational and gives you so much hope. This one is a MUST READ and a definite favorite of mine.

HOLY CANNOLI THIS BOOK DESERVES A MILLION STARS. Max Monroe do it again with another AMAZING billionaire romance.
My Brother’s Billionaire Best Friend is everything I love about Max Monroe’s writing. It was laugh out loud funny (seriously be ready for weird looks if you decide to read their books in public), steamy, awkward and completely relatable characters.
Maybe and Milo are one of my favorite couples and totally perfect for each other. Their chemistry is fantastic and they balance each other out so well when it comes to their personalities. Their banter and texting conversations would have me laughing the entire time. Milo is super swoon worthy. He is sweet, romantic and sexy.
Not only were Maybe and Milo fantastic but every single character was perfect and added so much to the story from Lena to Cap (I’m claiming him now!) to Evan and Sadie to Maybe’s parents (mostly her father). Plus, there are some hilarious Thatch scenes!
I don’t think I could recommend this book enough! Max Monroe wrote a super sweet, steamy, laugh out loud funny new billionaire romance and it is one that you don’t want to miss out on!

I have been waiting to read this book since K. Bromberg announced it and I was completely hooked from the very beginning. I devoured this book in one sitting. It is the first book in the Wicked Ways duet and it was wicked in the best possible way from the very first word.
Ryker and Vaughn are both independent people, but their both drawn to each other. Their chemistry is undeniable and kindle melting.
Vaughn is strong woman. She is hard working and extremely focused on her business, so when Ryker shows interest, she doesn’t want it. She doesn’t need the distraction in her life and to her plans. Ryker is a successful businessman. He doesn’t have time for dating, just needs companionship from time to time. That is until Vaughn enters his life and he can’t seem to stay away and wants to know all her secrets.
UGH This book is EVERYTHING! The story, the chemistry, the characters. Everything about it is perfect. K. Bromberg has created two amazing characters in Ryker and Vaughn, but also amazing secondary characters that will completely still your heart.
HOLY CLIFFHANGER!!!! I wanted to through my kindle across the room when I got to the end. I can’t wait to start book two and see where Ryker and Vaughn’s story goes. This is a MUST READ to anyone and everyone!

I am a sucker for hockey romances and I love Kate Meader’s writing so when I saw she had a new series coming out I knew I had to read it. I love that these rookies aren’t just college aged jocks, but men who have grown up and experienced life outside of hockey.
Levi Hunt is a former special forces officer and but hockey on hold to fight. He is done with his service and now is back playing hockey for the Chicago Rebels. The public wants to know more about this man and every journalist wants a chance to be the one to tell his story. Enter Jordan Cooke, journalist with a a personal connection to Levi. Her husband was in the Green Berets with Levi and his best friend. These two are given a second chance, but will they be able to give into the chemistry or will their careers be more important in the end?
I loved this second chance romance. I love the chemistry between Levi and Jordan. It was a classic he saw her first, but knew there was something between her and his best friend so he stepped back. There is so much more to Levi than what meets the eye. The more we learn about Levi throughout the story the more and more you fall in love with him. I also loved Jordan. She has experienced a lot of loss at her young age and the things she has to go through and the things that she experiences in her career are so relatable.
I can’t wait to read the rest of this series and get more glimpses into the Chicago Rebel’s hockey team.

THIS BOOK!!!! It was everything I could have asked for in the third and final book in this trilogy. Evelyn and her Bond are getting stronger, their connection is more powerful than ever. This story was the perfect mix of drama, suspense, action and steaminess (HELLO STEAM ROOM!!!).
I love the connection between Evelyn and each of the guys (Josh, Ethan, Tyler and Alec). Each guy is different, however, they just all work together. They make each other better. And if I could ever have a harem of men these are definitely the ones I would want!
Vivid Avowed picks up right where we left off. You MUST READ the first two books before reading this one. Tensions across the world are at an all time high and Variants/Vitals are in trouble. They aren’t safe anymore. Will there ever be an end to all the fighting and the testing?
The ending of this story was perfect. The epilogue was EVERYTHING!! I am not ready to say goodbye to all these characters and I truly hope that maybe we get some more of them in the future.

MASON FREAKIN’ WESTBROOK!!!! This man is seriously SWOON WORTHY! Mace was first introduced in Break for Me and I was instantly in love with his character. I was waiting for his story and it DOES NOT DISAPPOINT. It was SO MUCH more than I could have ever hoped for and there is so much more to Mace than I ever expected. I couldn’t get enough of this story!!
Mace and Jess are PERFECT for each other. There is an instant connection between the two of them and it is a connection like no other. Jess comes back into Mace’s life after he helps her sister and she leaves behind a necklace that means more than anything to her. Mace is rather persistent in getting Jess to spend time with him and to eventually go on a date with him. I love how seamlessly Jess fits in with the crew and how easily they embrace her.
Jess is broken. She has struggled her entire life. Like Mace, there is so much more to her than I could have expected. Mace just wants to help her. He wants to be there for her. He wants to knock down all the walls that she has built around herself. He would do anything to protect her, her sister and her niece. I mean THIS MAN RISKED HIS LIFE FOR HER!
I couldn’t put this book down! I loved every single moment of the story. It was sweet, it was suspenseful, it was steamy and it was emotional. I felt every single emotion while reading this book and I would read it again in a heartbeat. I This book and this series are a MUST READ! I can’t wait to get more and more of this crew in future books.

I have been waiting for this book since finishing A Lesson in Thorns and it surpassed every single expectation I had. This story was so much more than I could have ever hoped form. Thornchapel and these characters have completely captivated my mind, my soul and my heart.
It is insanely hard to talk about this story without completely spoiling it. It is just something that you have to read for yourself. It is so different from any story out there now.
While this story was told in multiple POV’s it is primarily Saint Sebastian’s story. We got his and Auden’s backstory. We learned what happened to these two men. Of course, there was also more of Poe, Auden and Saint’s relationship and their relationships with the rest of the group (Rebecca, Delphine and Becket). While they all had fantastic chemistry in the first book of the series, it has grown exponentially in this book. They know more about themselves and about what they want. This group does not shy away from ANYTHING!
Sierra Simone has a way with words. They are absolutely beautiful. Her description of scenes, of places, of every thing makes this world seem so real. It is so easy to picture yourself in the story. Standing off to the side and witnessing what is going on.
This series is not for everyone. This series is one of the most erotic books I have read and Feast of Sparks takes the level of eroticism, of passion, of kink into a whole new level. Every single character in this book plays a major role in the story, they are all so different and add so much more to the story.
This story does end on a cliffhanger and I can’t wait to see where it goes and to get back to Thornchapel.

I LOVED this story. It was sweet, funny, steamy and just overall fantastic. Luke and Tess were childhood friends, then everything changed and Luke has no idea what he did wrong. They hadn’t seen each other for years, that is until Luke comes back to New York to help at his family’s flower shop, where Tess also happens to work. Talk about awkward.
Right from the very beginning you can tell there is so much chemistry between Luke and Tess and the more time they spend together the more that chemistry intensifies. It is definitely a slow burn and I love the enemies to lovers vibe they have in the beginning. They work well together, especially when it comes to Luke’s idea to completely renovate the shop and make it more modern.
The ENTIRE Bennet family is hilarious and I LOVE the entire family dynamic they have. I truly hope that we see more of this family in the future. I love everything revolving around a family business and a flower shop. It is fun and different. Plus, the way Staci Hart describes the scenes it is so easy to picture the displays, the bouquets, the greenhouse, everything. I felt like I was standing right in the middle of the shop.
This book is a MUST READ for any Hart fans or any newbies I loved every single minute of this story.

I don’t even know where to begin with this review. This book took me one hell of an emotional roller coaster ride. First off, thank you to Nicole for the opportunity to read this book. This is a fantastic debut novel! The blurb is what really drew me into this story. I knew I needed to read it and find out more about thee characters and their stories.
Mia believes she can’t feel any emotions, after a traumatic event she has completely shut down. She has acted out. Her father and stepmother have had enough and send her to Dolor in the UK in hopes that she will get better. Ollie is the opposite of Mia. He feels too much emotion. These two could not be any more different from each other, yet somehow, they are perfect for each other.
Mia and Ollie’s relationship was so much more than a romance. They needed each other to heal, to feel, to recover. It was emotional and beautiful. I loved every aspect of their relationship. They are both so afraid for different reasons and they don’t want to hurt each other, but they also couldn’t stay away from one another.
Stay With Me was so different than I expected. It was an emotional romance, it was deep on so many different levels. This is book one in a series and I can not wait to see where this story goes after the cliffhanger of an ending.
