I have had this book forever, have had the Audible for months now, and only just got around to reading/listening.

Firstly, I freaking love Jake Spear. He could have come across as a real arse, but I should have known Ms Ashley would not do that to us.

Josie, I adore her (even though at times she spoke like she was in a regency novel!) I love that a) like so many KA novels, she is an older woman b) she doesn't GAF what anyone thinks of her c) she wants it, she goes for it.

I really wish we could have met Lydie, she would be a badass grandma!

I liked the slower feel of this series - sometimes you just need to slow down and smell the roses.

I am really looking forward to moving right on to Soaring.

Ms Green, you had me at book club.

I enjoyed the setting, and i especially loved the friendships and relationships of the 5 ladies as their stories unfolded.

I was hooked right from the start, and couldn't wait to turn each page to find out where their stories would go next.

The writing was exquisite. I could picture the wide expanses of the Northern Territory, could feel the isolation and loneliness that would be a big part of life in this part of the country.

This was my first book by Ms Green, and it definitely won't be my last

Champagne and Handcuffs is the 3rd book in the Saddles and Racks series, and continues on from where Joss and Paul's story ended in Tequila and Lace.

And it quickly became my favourite in the series.

Seth and Cat's story is full of love and hope through the years. I adored them together as teens, however the more i got of their story the more I had to know.

This book shows some of the seedier side of the bright light city. It delves in to darker topics that happen every day but we just don't hear about.

Each and every page, I needed to know. I needed to know what was happening. I needed to know that our lovelies were OK. I needed more.

I loved seeing more of the characters from the first 2 books, seeing where they were at.

I have been reading Ms Knight's books since she first published, and as a reader is it wonderful to see the growth and changes in her writing over the years as she refines her craft.

I can't wait to see what she brings us next.

Why why why (Delilah) did I take so long to read this book??

I have had it forever, I have read later books in this series, but never got back to reading this one.

I was hooked from the get go. I adored Hartley, I freaking loved Corey, and thoroughly enjoyed the journey that they took together.

Writing was great, the story flowed and was well paced, and I couldn't wait to turn each page.

I am also currently listening to book 2 in the series, now to get busy on that.

Firstly, I want cupcakes!

Just when you thought nothing else could happen on Whisper Island, we get The 39 Cupcakes.

Zara Keane has done it again with this latest installment in the Movie Club Mysteries series.

Our intrepid PI Maggie Doyle has got to be the unluckiest person on Whisper Island with her propensity to fall across dead people!

The stories in this series are all a little fun, a little flirty, a little complicated and a lot intriguing. Ms Keane likes to throw in a lot of red herrings, so even though you think you know whodunnit - nope! You will be wrong!

I also adore the slow burn of Maggie and Liam's romance throughout the series. Again, just when we think things will move along, there is someone or something in the way, however they are true to each other, and I can't wait till things really work for them.

Characters we have come to know and love throughout the series are alive and kicking, and I can't help but laugh at their shenanigans - especially Lenny.

I really do enjoy my visits to the Island, and can't wait to see what Ms Keane brings us next.

I have come to really adore the residents of Whynot, NC - especially the Mancinkus family. There is just something about them that are kinda family goals.

This is Laken's store -one of the twins in the family, and the local vet.

I like her. I mean, really like her. She knows what she wants and she isn't afraid to go after it - until what she wants wants more.

Jake is so not what we expect to find in Whynot, however her really does slide into country life - and Laken life - like he is meant to be.

I am not a fan of instalove, however I am a fan of the instalust and insta-attraction, and this pair has it by the bucketload. You can't help but be swept away with them as they tread lightly to maybe more.

There are a couple of scene stealers in this book, I don't want to give away much about them, but you will absolutely freaking adore them! If you don't, you don't have a soul lol!!

Jake and Laken's story quickly became my favourite in the series so far. I loved that we got deeper into the Mancinkus family, and Jake and Laken just had that something a little more than the other 2 books to date

Can't wait for the next installment of this series.

Ms Fernando's Wind Dragons series is one of my favourite series out there, so the chance to get into her new series early was a no brainer.

Breaching The Contract has a bit of everything. Office romance? Check! Single dad? Check! Adorable kids? Check, check!

Add in an angst free, sweet and sexy relationship and Ms Fernando is on a winner.

I adore Kat. She is smart and sexy and full of sass.

Tristan - he is gruff and downright unlikable at times, however you can't help but fall for him, and hope that he and Kat get their HEA.

This is a sweet, cute, sexy little story and a great start to the Conflict of Interest series. Now off to read part 2

It is time to buy shares in Kleenex, as you are going to use copious amounts of tissues

A couple of years ago, Lilliana Anderson ripped my heart out with her book 47 things.

Now she must have thought that enough time had passed that she might as well rip it out again with One More Thing.

And she has. This is how I picture her as she reads reviews
You will need to have read 47 Things prior to reading One More Thing, as this continues on down the track from where 47 ended.

This book was everything I wanted for our lovely Sarah - even though I didn't know it until I read it.

I laughed, I cried, I smiled, then cried a lot more tears. You would think that Ms Anderson got paid by the tears collected from her readers, as she sure does know how to get us going!

Sarah and Tyler's love was epic - but that doesn't mean she can't fall in love again, right?

I don't want to give anything away about the story, as I believe this is one is best going in blind.

Just know that it will wreck you, but put you back together again.

Thank you Ms Anderson for another gut wrenching, heart breaking read.

But please give my heart time to heal before you decimate it again.
