MY TOP 4 WEEKEND RECOMMENDATIONS:
SQUEEE!!!! OMG, you guys!!! I literally just finished Throttled by Elizabeth Lee (brand new release) and love love LOOOOOVED it!!!!! Ahhh, I can’t stop smiling!!!! It’s a second chance romance with ALL THE FEELS and I’m fully serious when I say that I loved EVERYTHING about it. The hero is a famous Motocross racer who returns to his hometown to realize that the girl he left behind when he went to follow his dreams still holds his heart and this time, he’s willing to do everything and anything in his power to win back her trust and prove that he still loves her more than anything. I loved him, I loved her, I loved them, I loved the whole story. Just…. READ THIS BOOK!!!!! 😀 ❤ (standalone)
Another SQUEE here ‘cuz I read Heart-Shaped Hack by Tracey Garvis Graves the other day and totally LOVED it!!!! It had me laughing, smiling, and SWOONING non-stop!! I appreciated so much that there was literally no stupid drama. It was just this gorgeous romance with two people who fell madly in love and did everything they could to STAY together. There were definitely heart-stopping moments (omg 70%!!!!) but I totally loved the ride!! Plus, there was so much FANTASTIC banter (I have so many highlights!!) and sexy ROMANCE that it was an awesome, HEART-WARMING read mixed with a little mystery because the hero had a whole secret identity that the heroine didn’t know about at first… This is definitely a new favorite standalone recommendation and it’s now live at this link!! ❤ (My Review)
And yet another SQUEEE because I also read Sustained by Emma Chase and LOOOVED it!!! If you’re a fan of stories with heroes/heroines with kids, then you HAVE to get this!! The heroine is the legal guardian of her late brother’s six kids, and the hero is roped into her life after a chance encounter with her… and now he just can’t stop thinking about her. OMG this book is just HILARIOUS!!! The scenes with the kids are ADORABLE!!! And it’s told from the guy’s POV which is pure GOLD!! It was hilariously funny, sexy, romantic, heart-warming, and kinda badass with that lawyer stuff too. You can read it as a complete 100% standalone romance, and it’s now live!! Grab a copy!! ❤ (My Review)
Aaaaaaand one more SQUEEE because I just finished Worth It by Linda Kage last night and also LOOVED it!!!!! If you’re a fan of heart-meltingly sweet bad boys, tortured heroes, forbidden romances, and intense second chance love stories, then you HAVE to try this!!! I read the whole book from start to finish in one non-stop sitting because I honestly just COULD NOT PUT IT DOWN!!! It’s well-written, full of feeeeeeels, and kept my heart racing!! You can easily read this as a complete standalone and it’s totally a new TOP FAVORITE recommendation!!! Note: each book in the series is about a different couple and written in a way that each one can be read alone. I read it as a standalone! ❤ (My Review)

Next up…
RECENT RECOMMENDATIONS: Hawthorne & Heathcliff by RK Ryals is a beautiful standalone I recently reviewed. I was wiping happy tears at the end! The UNIQUE feel of this story grabbed my attention and the gorgeous writing hooked me. It’s deeply introspective, almost poetic, but a very REAL, HEART-FELT story about an awkward girl in a small town with a past full of heartache and a good-looking boy she meets in high school who saw past her pain and, no matter what happened, he never gave up on her. This is their journey over 8 years of self discovery, first love, and second chances. I have almost 50 highlighted quotes in my book. It’s YA/NA and totally non-formulaic. I loved it!!! 4.5 stars!
If you haven’t read The Paper Swan by Leylah Attar yet, please trust me and grab yourself a copy! You’ll thank me later. This book blew me away. — It has almost all 5-STAR ratings and I can’t recommend it highly enough!!! Most of the readers who have finished it (including me!!) are saying it’s one of their 2015 Top Favorites so don’t miss out on this book!!! Also, a huge congratulations to the author because this book hit the New York Times Best Sellers list!! It’s a standalone romance. 5 stars! (My Review)
I also recently read Always Be The One by Hadley Quinn! It was a random read for me. A friend told me they were loving it, so I decided to try it, and just didn’t want to stop til the end! It’s about a musician hero who is left broken-hearted after his fiancee cheats on him. For a year, he’s unable to move on… but then a single mom with two little twin girls moves in across his street and for the first time, he finds his heart open to falling in love again. I’m always being asked for books with single parents in them so this is definitely one if you’re looking for that! 4 stars! Read my Review 🙂

*** THIS WEEK’S NEW RELEASES ***
Heart-Shaped Hack by Tracey Garvis Graves — New Release!! Top Fav!!
A heart-warming new standalone from the author On The Island!! Loved it!
— When Kate Watts abandoned her law career to open a food pantry, she never dreamed it would be this difficult. Facing the heartbreaking prospect of turning hungry people away, she is grateful for the anonymous donations that begin appearing at the end of each month. Determined to identify and thank her secret benefactor, she launches a plan and catches Ian — a charismatic hacker with a Robin Hood complex — in the act… Ian intrigues Kate in a way no man ever has… and Kate soon finds herself falling for the mysterious hacker…
Sustained by Emma Chase — New Release!! Top Favorite!!
Romantic comedy fans, this fun & sexy book can be read as a standalone! Loving it!
— When you’re a defense attorney in Washington, DC, you see firsthand how hard life can be… Then Chelsea McQuaid and her six orphaned nieces and nephews came along and complicated the ever-loving hell out of my life. Now I’m going to Mommy and Me classes, One Direction concerts, the emergency room, and arguing cases in the principal’s office. Chelsea’s too sweet, too innocent, and too gorgeous for her own good. She tries to be tough, but she’s not. She needs someone to help her, defend her…and the kids. And that—that, I know how to do.
Worth It by Linda Kage — New Release!!
I looove the sound of this standalone! It appears to be a forbidden love story with a second chance romance, a bad boy hero, and a baby?!
— I fell in love once. I lived for each time I could see her, and nothing else mattered, not that our families were enemies, our time together was forbidden, or we had to meet in secret. Our love could conquer all. Until it didn’t.
So I was ripped away from the love of my life and shoved into hell, forced to continue without her. It shattered me, broke the best parts of me, left me damaged. Or so I thought.
Years later, I swear history’s trying to repeat itself because she’s back in my life, and I’m just as drawn to her as I was before. But I’m older and wiser now, and I know she should stay away from a worthless piece of ex-con like me.
So, I will not let her in. I absolutely refuse to hurt her. I will keep her away. Then again, sometimes risking your greatest fear to get to a smile makes everything worth it, and besides, I’m not sure I can resist her, anyway.
This is the story of how Felicity Bainbridge changed my life forever, starting one summer day long ago after I was forced to change a dirty diaper…
Until Friday Night by Abbi Glines — New Release!!
This is the first standalone in a brand new YA series!!
— To everyone who knows him, West Ashby has always been that guy: the cocky, popular, way-too-handsome-for-his-own-good football god… but on the inside he’s battling grief. Two years ago, Maggie Carleton’s life fell apart when her father murdered her mother. And after she told the police what happened, she stopped speaking and hasn’t spoken since… As West’s pain becomes too much to handle, he knows he needs to talk to someone, so in the dark shadows of a post-game party, he opens up to the one girl who he knows won’t tell anyone else. But he never expected the quiet new girl to reply, to reveal a pain even deeper than his own — or for them to form a connection so strong that he couldn’t ever let her go…

Find Me by Laurelin Paige — New Release!!

This 2-book duet is a spin-off of the Fixed Trilogy.
— There are some things I don’t want to leave behind – like JC, the man who taught me how to let loose. The man I wasn’t supposed to love. The man I don’t want to lose. My life is safe now. The threats from before have become less menacing, and I’m faced with a choice: either move on completely or keep holding to the hope that JC loves me enough to come and find me.
Blurred Lines by Lauren Layne — New Release!!
A new friends-to-lovers romance standalone!
— When she meets him during her freshman year of college, the connection is immediate—and platonic. Six years later, they’re still best friends, sharing an apartment as they happily settle into adult life. But when her boyfriend dumps her out of the blue, she starts to wonder about his no-strings-attached approach to dating. The trouble is, she can’t seem to get the hang of casual sex—until she tries it with him…. The arrangement works perfectly… at first. The sex is mind-blowing, and their friendship remains as solid as ever, without any of the usual messy romantic entanglements. But when Parker’s ex decides he wants her back, Ben is shocked by a fierce stab of possessiveness. With their friendship on the rocks for the first time, Parker and Ben face an alarming truth: Maybe they can’t go back. And maybe, deep down, they never want to.
In The Dark by Monica Murphy — New Release!!
This can be read as a standalone romance.
— “The girl next door isn’t what she seems… Stuck spending the summer with his screwed up family, [the hero] is bored out of his mind and looking for an adventure. And he seems to find it with the hot girl who lives next door. The attraction between them is instant. Electric. Soon they’re spending every stolen minute together. Talk about the perfect summer fling… But she isn’t what she seems. She doesn’t live next door–she’s the girl who’s been hired to house sit for the summer. If he wants to believe she’s a spoiled rich girl looking for some fun, she can go along with that. After the summer, she’ll never see him again… They don’t count on running into each other at college… Will he still care about her when he discovers the truth?”
Caged: Released by Shay Savage — New Release!!
Fighter fans, this is the third book in the Caged series (book 1 and book 2)
— Oblivion is a sweet, sweet place. No pain. No disturbing thoughts of the past. No guilt from my recent actions. Deep down, there is still a part of me that knows how screwed up I am. I don’t see a way out, not now. Tria’s gone, and the possibility of her forgiving me in my current state is exactly zero. I know I have to pull myself together, accept my responsibilities, and try to make amends, but I have no idea where to start.
Tough Love by Lori Foster — New Release!!
Fighter fans, here’s the latest standalone romance in the Ultimate series!
— She’s wanted him from day one… He learned early to stay free of attachments. But with her, he’s the one always left wanting more. Then his troublemaking family comes back into the picture, threatening everything he cares about — her included. Suddenly he realizes they’re much more than friends with benefits. He’s ready to go to the mat for her… but will it be in time to protect the woman who’s tamed him for good?
Another Day by David Levithan — New Release!!
This is the sequel to Every Day, which sounds really intriguing, but the blurb for this book seems a little spoilery, so I’ll just say what the first book was about:
— Every day a different body. Every day a different life. Every day in love with the same girl. There’s never any warning about where it will be or who it will be. A has made peace with that, even established guidelines by which to live: Never get too attached. Avoid being noticed. Do not interfere. It’s all fine until the morning that A wakes up in the body of Justin and meets Justin’s girlfriend, Rhiannon. From that moment, the rules by which A has been living no longer apply. Because finally A has found someone he wants to be with—day in, day out, day after day.
With Brave Wings by Cara Dee — New Release!!
Hollywood romance/famous actor fans, this is the sequel to Breaking Free!
— When Tennyson Wright lets Sophie go, he knows something has to change. He’s lost sight of who he is, and the wakeup call isn’t pretty. Deciding to take a page from Sophie’s book, he begins a journey of self-discovery, though everything comes to a screeching halt when he learns through the tabloids that the girl he can’t stop thinking about is pregnant… Their romantic relationship may have ended, but soon their co-parenting responsibilities bring them together to play the Hollywood game by their own rules.
Rhythm, Chord, & Malykhin by Mariana Zapata — New Release!!
Rock star romance fans!!! — “When her twin brother invites her to go on tour as his band’s merch girl, she isn’t exactly screaming at the top of her lungs with joy… With no job opportunities pounding on her door, an ex-boyfriend she would still like to castrate, and no end in sight to moving out of her parents’ house, it would be dumb to say no to the chance of a lifetime… If only the singer of the headlining band didn’t have tattoos… a great personality… a fantastic body… and if he wasn’t so funny… Let’s be real: she never had a chance against him.”
Nantucket by Nan Rossiter — New Release!!
A second chance romance!! — “Over twenty-five years ago, they fell in love. He knew she was way out of league for a local boy who restored boats for a living. Yet the two became inseparable… After she returned home to New York and discovered she was pregnant, her parents crushed any hope of communicating with the boy she’d left behind… Unanswered letters and calls couldn’t change his heart, but over the years he’s settled into a simple, solitary life in his rambling beachfront house. Now he’s learned that she is returning for the opening of her son’s art show. Over a weekend of revelations and poignant memories, they have an opportunity to confront the difference time can make, the truths that never alter, and the bittersweet second chances that arrive just in time to steer a heart back home…”
Capture by Rachel Van Dyken — New Release!!
This new standalone romance sounds SOOO good!!
— “Losing your ability to speak at the age of seventeen; it’s not normal or fair. But trauma, has a way of throwing normality out the window. She lives anything but a normal life… That is until Hollywood’s newest heartthrob hires her as his assistant for the summer. He’s gorgeous, completely unavailable, and unobtainable. But that doesn’t stop her from wondering…if things were different…would he want her?”
*** RECENT RECOMMENDATIONS ***
The Paper Swan by Leylah Attar (Read my Review)
I LOVE LOVE LOOOOOVED THIS BOOK!!! Fierce, powerful, and absolutely breathtaking, this beautifully-written book will sweep you away in an epic love story that spans years and lasts a lifetime. The Paper Swan is a must-read for any romance readers who are searching for a completely unique story that’ll captivate you from start to finish. While the twists and turns are intense, gritty, and sometimes even dark, this was actually one of the sweetest and most beautiful love stories I’ve ever read. I loved every word and HIGHLY recommend it! 5 STARS!!
Hawthorne & Heathcliff by R.K. Ryals (Read my Review)
What a BEAUTIFUL story!! I was wiping happy tears at the end! The UNIQUE feel originally grabbed my attention and the gorgeous writing hooked me. It’s deeply introspective, almost poetic, but a very REAL, HEART-FELT story about an awkward girl with a past full of heartache and a good-looking boy she meets in high school who saw past her pain and, no matter what happened, he never gave up on her. This is their journey over 8 years of self discovery, first love, and second chances. I have almost 50 highlighted quotes in my book. It’s YA/NA and totally non-formulaic. If you’re in the mood for something different, definitely try this!
Vanguard by CJ Markusfeld (Read my Review)
OMG!!!! I absolutely loooooooooooooved this gorgeous book!!!!!! From the moment I read the prologue, I was hooked and could NOT put it down even for a single minute!! I cried, laughed, swooned, was totally overwhelmed with emotion, and even had to take little “breathers” before turning the page because it could get literally that intense!!! It had ALL THE FEELS. This story was 100% unique and unlike any other I’ve ever read. It’s a modern-day wartime love story with fantastic writing, a gripping and emotional tale, and an epic romance that kept my heart racing from start to finish. This was smart, intelligent romance!! Book HEAVEN!
Maybe In Another Life by Taylor Jenkins Reid (Read my Review)
SQUEEEEEE!!!! I LOVE LOVE LOVED this so freaking much!!! My gosh, that last 10% was seriously loaded with feels!! This was honestly one of the BEST BOOKS I’ve read this year. The story was unlike any other I’ve read, the writing was AMAZING, and it kept me glued to the page. It was totally unconventional and gave such a UNIQUE perspective on finding your soul mate and one true love. I cried, I laughed, my heart felt like it was bursting with emotions. I LOVED IT!!! 5++ STARS!!! — “I still love you,” he says. “I’ve always loved you. I might never stop.”
Rush by Emma Scott (Read my Review)
This was a really touching story! The first few chapters were a little slow but once they officially met, I was hooked. If you loved the “feeling” of Me Before You (minus the ugly-crying), then definitely try this! — The hero used to be a pro extreme sports athlete who was blinded and severely injured in a cliff diving accident. With his life and dreams shattered, he was left bitter and angry and shut himself away the world until the heroine arrived to work for him as a live-in assistant. She was a prodigy musician who’d suffering her own loss as well but they began to help each other heal as they fell unexpectedly in love…
The Strongest Steel by Scarlett Cole (Read my Review)
TATTOOED HERO FANS!!! I recently finished this great new book!! The sexy, tattooed hero had me swooooooooning!!! The heroine had survived an attack that left her back covered in scars and the hero was a talented tattoo artist whose specialty was inking over scars. When she shows up at his studio, he cant turn her down, and designs the perfect tattoo while fighting his intense feelings for her that grow with each tattooing session… This story was swoony, heart-meltingly romantic, a little suspenseful (her ex was a real piece of work), a lot sexy… with a hot, protective Alpha male hero!! (It’s a standalone)
Ride Steady by Kristen Ashley (My Review)
Bad boy biker alert!! I LOVED THIS BOOK!!! 5 STARS!! (Chaos series)
“Once upon a time, she believed in happy endings. Money, marriage, motherhood: everything came easy… Now a struggling, single mom and stranded by a flat tire pondering her mistakes, when a vaguely familiar knight rides to her rescue on a ton of horsepower… In high school, he was a bad boy loner who put her on a pedestal… Today, he’s a hard-bodied biker, and it’s clear she’s falling fast.”
The Man I Love by Suanne Laqueur (Read my Review)
WOW WOW WOW!!! I recently read this and LOVED it!! The WRITING was truly exquisite! It was a very slow-building, detailed story, but one where EVERY detail matters. Everything was connected and had DEPTH. It was vivid and powerful and completely UNIQUE. It told a love story that spanned 10-15 years, but didn’t follow ANY rules. Normally that would be scary to me but the way that everything was portrayed made me really *get* where these characters came from. And I was honestly blown away by how much I FELT and how BEAUTIFULLY it was written. It’s like I lived the story with them. It just felt REAL. Highly recommended!
Never Let You Go by Katy Regnery (Read my Review)
HOLY HELL!!! I read reading this in one non-stop sitting because I could NOT put it down. I mean seriously… THE ANGST!!!!! Gah. *clutches heart* It’ll be a while before my heart rate to go back to normal, but WOW, it was unputdownable!!! It felt like I barely blinked or stopped to breathe because I was flipping the pages so fast…… It was sweet and romantic, heart-breaking and painful, angsty as all freaking hell, and really just a gorgeous story of UNDYING LOVE!!! The story was unique and it’s a complete standalone so if you’re looking for a new read, try this!
King by T.M. Frazier (Read my Review)
Holy wow, I totally LOVED this book!! Dark and gritty, sweet and sexy, raw and shocking, and utterly addictive, with an unapologetic, badass Alpha male hero and unexpected twists that I never saw coming!! I highly recommend it!!
— Homeless. Hungry. Desperate. Doe has no memories of who she is or where she comes from…A notorious career criminal just released from prison, King is someone you don’t want to cross. When they come crashing together, they will have to learn that sometimes in order to hold on, you have to first let go.
A Pound of Flesh by Sophie Jackson (Read my Review)
SQUEEEEEEE!!!!! I absolutely LOOOOOOOVED this book!!! If you love SEXY BAD BOY heroes and unique love stories, then you have to try this!!!! The thrill of their forbidden romance kept my heart RACING the whole way through. I swooned over their love for each other, and really appreciated the way there was no ‘stupid’ drama. And now I just can’t stop smiling because the story was just so freaking GOOD!!!! I adored it!!! It’s about a “strong-minded prison tutor who discovers that her sexy bad-boy student is far more than he appears to be…”
