UPCOMING TOP RECOMMENDATION: The Birthday List by Devney Perry (Read my Review)
OH MY SWOOOOOOON!!!!! This was one of my most highly anticipated books of this year and I read an early copy and LOVED IT!!! It was such a beautifully written love story — the ultimate slow-burning romance full of HEART, HEALING, and HAPPINESS that truly showed that even after the most heart-breaking loss imaginable, it was still possible to find a second chance at love and life. This hero was SO patience and gentle and understanding… he just MADE MY HEART MELT over and over. And the heroine was strong and relatable. While some parts of the story were painful, I would definitely describe this book as a FEEL-GOOD ROMANCE and one that left me with the biggest smile on my face. This book is a complete standalone NOT related to any of her other amazing books and I would highly recommend pre-ordering a copy so you don’t miss its upcoming release!! This is a NEW FAVORITE!!!!

LATEST BOOK NEWS:

Tattered: Lark Cove by Devney Perry was just announced and OMG. OMG. OMG. This is a BRAND NEW BOOK in a BRAND NEW SERIES (of standalones) by one of my TOP FAVORITE AUTHOR!!!! I love EVERYTHING she writes! — “Thea Landry has always known her place in modern-day society. It’s somewhere just above the trash can her mother dumped her in as a newborn but below the class where much comes easy. With her tattered shoes and bargain-bin clothes, her life has never been full of glamour. So when a rich and charismatic man walks into her bar, she doesn’t fool herself into thinking their encounter is anything more than a one-night stand. Months later, she’s kicking herself for not getting his phone number. Or his last name. She’s given up hope of seeing him ever again. Until one day, years later, Logan Kendrick waltzes into her bar once more and turns the life she’s built upside down. This time around, she won’t make the same mistake. She’s going to fight to keep him in her life—not for herself. But for their daughter.” — Be sure to pre-order!

The Red Ledger series by Meredith Wild was just announced!! It sounds very intriguing! She says: “The series follows Tristan Red, an assassin robbed of his memory after a military mission gone wrong. Not much gets his adrenaline going, but when his latest mark, Isabel Foster, she says his name seconds before he’s ready to pull the trigger, he’s gripped by a desire to know more. She knows him, which means she knows things about his past that have been beyond reach for as long as he can remember.”

Mogul by Katy Evans was just announced! It’s a standalone! — “He’s my most delicious secret. The hot Suit I had a one-night stand with one evening. I didn’t know anything about him, not even his name. Only that we shared a taxi, and he was staying at the hotel where I worked. We met in room 301. Where he commanded not only my body but my soul. The next day he was gone and I only had a memory of him. I could still taste his kisses, feel his demanding touch. I searched for him for months. Daydreaming about him. Wondering if I’d ever find him. Until the day I find myself staring face to face with his jeweled black eyes again. He says let’s keep it casual, and my heart knows that falling for this workaholic in a three-thousand-dollar suit is off the table. Because he has a secret. One that’s a deal breaker for me. My Suit has a name. Ian Ford. And this is our story.”

It’s about a married couple struggling through some dark days and HOLY EPIC FEELS!!!! I read the book in one sitting and just DEVOURED this story.

And then there was just this MOMENT where everything CLICKED and I swear I just literally burst into tears and then SOBBED my way through the whole rest of the book. But in the BEST WAY. These weren’t tears of sadness, rather an EMOTIONAL OVERFLOW. And the EPILOGUE was PERFECT. This book was PERFECT. Everything about it was perfect. You have to read it!!

LATEST BOOKWORM NEWS:

Only Him by Melanie Harlow was just announced!! This is the next standalone following Only You which was recently released! — “He was my first crush, my first kiss, my first everything. But I’m not a lovesick teenager anymore, and I refuse to let him break my heart again. So when he shows up out of the blue asking me to take a road trip with him “for old time’s sake,” I say I will. After all, it’s been ten years. I’m stronger and smarter, full of inner peace and harmony… Except he’s still got eyes that make me weak. Kisses that steal my rational thoughts. Tattoos that declare war on my senses and a body that renders me completely defenseless. We’re just as good together as we were back then—better, even—and I’m willing to give the only man I’ve ever loved another chance. But he’s got to tell me the truth.”

Consumed (Firefighters series Book 1) by JR Ward was just announced!!! — “From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the popular Black Dagger Brotherhood series comes a brand-new novel about arson investigator, Ann Ashburn, who is consumed by her troubled past, her family’s scorched legacy, and her current case: chasing a deadly killer… Anne Ashburn is a woman consumed. By her bitter family legacy, by her scorched career as a firefighter, by her obsession with department bad-boy Danny McGuire, and by a new case that pits her against a fiery killer…”

From Here to You by Jamie McGuire was just announced!! — “As she sits in a tiny Texas church bathroom on her wedding day holding a positive pregnancy test, she realizes that of all the bad decisions she’s made in her life, marrying her abusive fiancé would be the worst. She’s never been able to stand up for herself, but she’ll sure as hell stand up for her baby. With just the cash she has on hand, she runs to get a bus ticket to the farthest place she can afford. Between her sheer grit and pageant-queen smile, she lands a job as a front desk clerk at the Colorado Springs Hotel. It’s not a glamorous life, but she and her baby are all that matters. A former Marine, Scott Trexler has worked in the most dangerous, corrupt, war-torn places on earth. Now he finally has a chance to return to the last place he’d felt at peace–Colorado Springs, Colorado, to take a new job with a top-secret military installation buried deep within the granite… The moment he walks into the inn, she knows he’s dangerous. There’s no way she wants to get involved with another man who seems to be keeping way too many secrets. As charming and devastatingly gorgeous as he is, he clearly isn’t telling her everything…”

The Simple Wild: A Novel by KA Tucker was just announced!! It’s a standalone! — Calla Fletcher was two when her mother took her and fled the Alaskan wild, unable to handle the isolation of the extreme, rural lifestyle, leaving behind Calla’s father, Wren Fletcher, in the process. Calla never looked back, and at twenty-six, a busy life in Toronto is all she knows. But when her father reaches out to inform her that his days are numbered, Calla knows that it’s time to make the long trip back to the remote frontier town where she was born… She braves the roaming wildlife, the odd daylight hours, the exorbitant prices, and even the occasional—dear God—outhouse, all for the chance to connect with her father: a man who, despite his many faults, she can’t help but care for. While she struggles to adjust to this new subarctic environment, Jonah—the quiet, brooding, and proud Alaskan pilot who keeps her father’s charter plane company operational [and] can’t imagine calling anywhere else home… It would be foolish of her to kindle a romance, to take the same path her parents tried—and failed at—years ago. It’s a simple truth that turns out to be not so simple after all.

LATEST BOOK REVIEW: Gentleman Nine by Penelope Ward (Read my Review)
Penelope Ward has been one of my favorite authors for many years so when this book was released, naturally I had to dive right in. I read it in one non-stop sitting. It was addictive, angsty, and romantic!! It checked off a lot of favorite trope boxes for me: friends-to-lovers, childhood friends, roommates, and even though I’m not usually a fan of love triangles, I actually though that the one that eventually develops in this book was very well written and handled. Once I started reading it, I was hooked. It was hot and sexy, but still romantic and swoony. I had a few issues with the storyline but overall thought it was a really good read. Definitely give this a shot if you’re looking for something new to read!

LATEST BOOK NEWS:

Bishop: An Arizona Vengeance Novel by Sawyer Bennett and Erik: An Arizona Vengeance Novel were just announced!! — “The Arizona Vengeance series launches with the introduction of BISHOP, who is about to find himself in a compromising position… with the coach’s daughter. She’s got a plan to keep him from losing his place on the team, but it may land him by her side at the altar, the last place he’s looking to be.”

Fight or Flight by Samantha Young was just announced!! — The universe is conspiring against Ava Breevort. As if flying back to Phoenix to bury a childhood friend wasn’t hell enough, a cloud of volcanic ash traveling from overseas delayed her flight back home to Boston. Her last ditch attempt to salvage the trip was thwarted by an arrogant Scotsman, Caleb Scott, who steals a first class seat out from under her. Then over the course of their journey home, their antagonism somehow lands them in bed for the steamiest layover Ava’s ever had. And that’s all it was–until Caleb shows up on her doorstep.

The Bourbon Thief by Tiffany Reisz just went on sale for $2.99 (reg. $8.99)! It’s a standalone! — “When he wakes up from a night with a beautiful stranger, it’s to discover he’s been robbed. The only item stolen—a million-dollar bottle of bourbon. The thief, a mysterious woman, claims the bottle is rightfully hers. After all, the label itself says it’s property of the Maddox family who owned and operated [the] distillery since the last days of the Civil War until the company went out of business for reasons no one knows… No one except her.”

NEW FAVORITE & EARLY RELEASE: Gentleman Nine by Penelope Ward (standalone)
WOOHOO!!!! I just finished reading this ADDICTIVE new in one non-stop sitting!!! It was an ANGSTY forbidden friends-to-lovers romance!! And I’m while I’m usually not a fan of love triangles, I actually thought the one in this book was handled really well and honestly, once I started reading it, I couldn’t put this book down!! — “Growing up, the three of us were friends. He was the nerd. I was the playboy. She was the beauty… Deep down, I only ever wanted her. I kept it inside because Rory and I made a pact that our friend, Amber, was off-limits. He lied… I went off to college, and he got the girl. Amber never knew how I felt. They were together for years—before he broke her heart.

Through it all and across the miles, she and I casually stayed in touch. When my job sent me to Boston for a three-month contract position, Amber let me stay in her spare room.

Still reeling from her breakup, she’d sworn off men. One night, I opened her computer to find the shock of my life. She’d hesitantly contacted a male escort company. Afraid to date and get her heart broken again, she was looking for sex with no strings. Every emotion imaginable ran through me: protectiveness, jealousy—curiosity. Amber had chosen Gentleman Number Nine and sent him a message. She opened up to him, confessing, among other things, her physical attraction to her friend—me. But she considered me off-limits—and she thought I was a manwhore. (Ironic, considering the circumstances.)

Eventually, she set up a date to meet Gentleman Nine at a hotel. When she showed up several nights later to meet him, she was stunned to see me standing there—with an offer I hoped she wouldn’t refuse.” — This is on limited-time release sale price (Price is going up SOON. This will be the ONLY sale.) So be sure to grab a copy!

MY 2018 TOP RECOMMENDATIONS SO FAR:
