🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Can This Woman Do No Wrong Stars!!

Lauren Blakely does it again! When does this woman sleep???

Have you heard the one about the Quiz Nerd and the Rockstar???

If you know me by now then you will know that I have a love for second chance romance stories, it's not even a guilty pleasure, I have no guilt at all, I fly my Swoon flag high people!

This is a first in a new series, but each one can be read as a Stand-Alone.

This was everything you need in a story with the added benefit of kids!

Yes, our two MC's both have teenage children, and I loved them, one was a little music prodigy and the other was an avid baker with her own YouTube channel.

Mackenzie is a woman that has dedicated her life to her son, she has put herself on the back burner, and managed to find a delicate balance between dating and quizzing, meaning she quizzes more than dates!

Campbell had a privileged life when he was younger being a former Rock Star, now days you will find him chilling with Netflix and sampling his daughters baking creations, although he does still sing in a band, he does not use his former stage name, and is now just a part-time singer and music teacher.

In true Lauren Blakely style the witty banter was there in spades, Mackenzie gave as good as she got, and it was hilarious, I had a grin on my face throughout, and Campbell had a dirty mouth, and I loved it!!!

🎧🎧 Narrated by the dream-team of Andi Arndt #SexyVoiceQueen & Sebastian York #SebYes this was just sheer narration perfection.

These two together are a masterclass of narration, my Andi/Seb comfort blanket was wrapped around me and I didn't want it to end, well not until the next one in the series is released!

**Thank you to the author for providing me with a digital copy

I really wanted to love this story, but I think I ended up with more questions than answers, and I’m not sure that I am invested in the story enough to carry on with the series.

We first meet the MC Julia living with a very religious family, and also being very religious herself, up to the point where the first meeting with the Jonah was with her on her knees on a public boardwalk praying with her hands in the air praying out loud to God.

This would be fine, except for the fact that this religious aspect of Juliette's life sort of falls away throughout the book, does Instalove make you loose your religious beliefs?

The child (Sidney) that she goes to look after seems to range from little girl, to moody teenager.
She is portrayed as this awful child and called the Devils Spawn from other parents, and this is never really explained why, i'm assuming that it may be explained in book 2 ?

Jonas i did not like, Julia was a sweet little virgin, so being thrown into this situation and having Jonas seemingly emotionally abuse her felt a bit icky.

Narration was expertly done and i'm sure that i will get to read book 2 sometime in the future, but i won't rush out to get it just yet.


**I was very grateful to receive a free digital copy of His Secret in exchange for an honest review.

Ok, so i didn't hate this book, but i didn't love it either!

This is a story of Lola and Daire, they have known each other for years, he is a very successful businessman and she is a plain, pretty owner of a small business and unlucky in the love department.

Daire however is an expert in the bedroom department and Lola asks him for help.

The only thing about this story is that Daire was a dick, plain and simple, i usually like the whole douche to nice guy story, but he didn't seem to change at all throughout the book.

Lola was a walking doormat and took everything Daire said & did to her, until about the last 10% where she suddenly discovered her lady balls.

This takes Alpha-douche to a whole new level.

Audio narration was by Tracy Marks and Aaron Shedlock, it was OK but the male voices from Tracy were a bit odd.

Review



So this book had me laughing out loud a lot.
It is I would possibly say american pie meet fifty shades.

Imagine if you will, you are 20 years old and still a virgin, you want to get rid of your v card and you will do this by any means, Claire does this by getting drunk and having sex with a random man and then getting pregnant on her first time how is that for ironic?

Claire doesn't see the father of her child (until later) and slowly gets back into normal life well as normal as normal can be.

Liz her best friend is amazing, I thought she was wonderful I really enjoyed her character, and also making Claire work selling sex toys is the funniest chapter I have ever read.

Claire is hilarious and Carter is just lovely. There is a lot of use of the word vagina however it's done in a humorous way and I personally I found it very very funny.

Gavin the little boy is absolutely hillarious,and I found myself laughing out loud on the bus to work, getting very funny looks as I always listen to my bookson audio.

This book is crude, rude, and very very funny I would highly recommend it especially if you may be looking into the erotic book section and are not too sure about which one to start with.

I have recommended it to all of my friends.

🌟🌟🌟.75 Emotionally Drained Stars

I really enjoyed this story, but i did feel slightly emotionally drained after it had finished!

Brooklyn and Nate have always had a thing, from High School where they hooked up that one time and gave each other their V card, to the time they met again 8 years later at a convention.

You see, even though Brooklyn is engaged to someone else, she had always remembered Nate, always wondered about him, always wondered "What If"

And suddenly, as if it was meant to be, here is is!

The thing is, he is now a slightly over jealous, anxiety ridden chap, don't get me wrong, they are super cute together, but his jealous rages and stalking tendencies seemed to me a little scary, and the relationship seemed to be slightly toxic, i would personally tell Brooklyn to stay clear, but maybe that is me seeing things that are not really there.

🎧🎧 Narration by the always amazing Erin Mallon made this book very enjoyable, it is a new author to me, and i will certainly be looking for others that she has written

**many thanks to the author for proving me with a digital copy

🌟🌟🌟🌟.5 Which brother Stars??

Well now i don't know who is my favourite brother, is it Miller or Campbell??

Loved this little story, i LOVE the fact that the MC was a narrator for Audio books, Well played Ms Blakely, Well Played!!

A friends to lovers story which is always the best type, we get to follow the lives of two lovely people who deserve some happiness for a change.

There wasn't any unnecessary drama and the characters were steaming hot together.

I can't big Lauren Blakely up enough for her writing, she will always leave you with a smile on your face after finishing one of her stories, i don't know how she does it.

🎧🎧 Narration as usual was superb, I mean it was Andi Arndt and Sebastian York, what could possibly go wrong?

For all of you narrator lovers out there, this book has a special little cameo from another narrator, i didn't expect it, so when it happened, i rewound it a couple of times, and then proceeded to do a little squeak!

**Always thanks to ms Blakely for providing me with a digital copy of his book

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐"Just Friends" stars

Well well well, why am i not surprised that Ms Blakely has done it again!!

No matter how many books this lady releases, she always manages to knock it out of the park, and this one was no exception.

April has been invited to stay with her parents for the annual summer reunion.

Unfortunatley whenever she goes home for any time, her friends and family always try and set her up with someone, mainly so that she will stay in the town where she was born.

April doesn't want to stay in the sleepy town, she has a brilliant job and is doing really well, much to her parents dismay, New York is her home now.

Whats a girl to do, how can she stop her parents from trying to shack her up with someone??

Theo is a bit of a bad boy, he has been in trouble a few times, but is now trying to get himself on the straight and narrow, pay off his debts, and live a happy life.

He does this by being a Dial-a-Boyfriend, for those people in need of a plus one, advertising on Craigslist, he manages to make quite good money from it.

After placing her order, April sets the ground-rules to Theo and they toddle off together to the reunion as pretend Boyfriend and Girlfriend..........but things don't always play by the rules, and rules are there to be broken after all 😜

🎧🎧 Narration was perfect with this one, with Zachary "sex voice" Webber and Erin Mallon #ErinMallonsManVoiceMakesMeSexuallyConfused

These 2 together are like a kettle waiting to boil, the witty banter that you expect and love from Blakely's books is there in spades, and the fact that these 2 narrators have the hottest voices around doesn't hurt either 😇
