his was the perfect combination of sweet and tender and super spicy and sexy, I really liked it! Andi is one of my very favorite narrators so listening to her is always a treat and Jacob really brought Maddox to life. A great summer listen!
I’ve been waiting for Cody’s book for what feels like forever and it was sooo worth the wait! I adore the way the author writes the single parent trope and Hailey and her daughter were beyond adorable. Hailey is just so sweet and nurturing and she definitely balanced out Cody and his cocky nature. She brought the man to his knees in more ways than one, he falls hard for her and their relationship gave me all the feels. The author really brought the heat here, there were some super steamy scenes and the flirty banter between these two was so good! The suspense was also really intense, especially in the end and the whole dang thing was just SO good! Another great addition to such an amazing series
This series is soo cute and reminds me exactly why I love a small town romance so much. Sadie and Jude have been best friends since they were kids and their bond was so sweet and special. Both of them have feelings for each other but they’re scared about changing the dynamic of their relationship until they need to get married to save Sadie’s family farm. Besides friends to lovers and marriage of convenience you also get grumpy and sunshine and these two were the definition of that trope. I loved that Jude was grumpy with everyone but her and that lifelong friendship gave them such a strong foundation for a romantic relationship. This series is quickly becoming a favorite for me when I want a truly escapist read, I can’t wait for book three!
This has such a good premise, the idea of a child knowing things they shouldn’t know just creeps me out and the author portrayed it in a way that was unsettling and addictive. Camille had such a horrific childhood, the bits and pieces that are shared about her past are chilling and haunting, I so felt for her. She’s resilient and has worked very hard to move on from her past and watching her beautifully crafted life unravel was so sad. But it also made me wonder if she was just being paranoid or overprotective, I mean who could blame her if she was? It made for a fun guessing game and I really didn’t predict at all how things would turn out. I don’t want to say much more about the plot but if you like dark and fast paced thrillers this was excellent and I cannot wait for the next book!
I’ve read all of the authors books and I think this is my new fave! There was something addictive right from the start, I was instantly drawn into the story and read this in record time. There are quite a few characters at the beginning and I thought I would be confused but I settled in quickly and had no issues. The suspense started right at the beginning and really never waned for me, things just kept happening and there were some really great twists that threw me for a loop too. One in particular really shook things up and made me race to finish the entire thing to see wtf would happen next. Loved this one and definitely recommend it!
This was a delightful cozy mystery that was so good on audio. Aure Nash was such a talented narrator, she did a few different voices for some of the characters and her impressions cracked me up. While this was light and fluffy the author explored race, class, being a single parent and more. Fans of Finlay Donovan will enjoy this
If you read the synopsis of this one you already know this is outrageous because that premise is insane 😂 so when I started this I knew it would be slightly ridiculous but I had no idea just how unhinged it would get. The author really went there in terms of outrageousness and I was here for it. This was fast paced, I could not put it down so there was an addictive quality to the authors writing. I really had no idea what the characters would do next but I was dying to know. There’s a bit of a book within a book as there are excerpts from Kate’s steamy erotica story interspersed within the chapters so that was fun. You also hear from Annie, the new neighbor in alternating chapters and she was quite the character. If you like domestic novels with unhinged behavior, a side of steam and some pretty surprising twists this was a blast. The publisher says it’s for fans of The Arrangement series and I can definitely see that!
When I first read the synopsis of this one it sounded like a perfect summer thriller and it totally was! The Hamptons setting, the glitz and glam of the Blackwell family and the missing sister? Yep that all screams summer to me. I enjoyed the back and forth between Maddie in the past and Alex in the present as she basically retraces her sister’s footsteps in order to find her. It was fast paced as Alex realizes nothing is as it seems with anything about the life Alex was living in the Hamptons and there were quite a few twists that took me by surprise. The suspense aspect was solid, I was right there with Alex wanting to know what happened to Maddie and the big reveal made sense with no unnecessary twists just for the sake of them. Overall a solid mystery that kept me on my toes.
This is romance for grown ass adults, it’s raw and vulnerable and shows the not so pretty side of a decades long marriage that is unraveling at a rapid speed. It’s very emotional and I knew it was gonna make me cry, I tried to avoid it but damn it was truly heartbreak at times. I warned you. BUT. It is a very worthwhile read if you want a romance that is flawed and that you can sink your teeth into. The author captured the complexities of marriage and parenthood in such a profound and relatable way. This one took me on an unexpected journey that won’t soon forget. If you like messy stories that will lift you up and break your heart try this.
This was a really solid thriller, exactly the kind of story I’ve come to expect from the author. She’s a really great writer, I love her style and combine that with a compelling and intricate plot and a complex mother/daughter relationship and I was hooked. This is a character driven story following Cleo and her mom, Kat who are somewhat estranged when Kat goes missing. You hear from Cleo in the present day and Kat in the weeks leading up to her disappearance until everything merges together in a fairly satisfying conclusion. There is definitely a lot of emotional upheaval here due to their strained relationship and I thought the author did a fantastic job at examining their issues. My only small gripe was there were a couple of loose threads in the end that I wish were more resolved but overall a solid read for me.
