*** MY FEATURE BOOKS ***
Clipped Wings by Helena Hunting — Latest Review!!
I just finished this and loved it! It’s a contemporary romance (not paranormal) about two broken people falling in love. The hero is tall, dark, mysterious, and tattooed. He runs a tattoo parlor and is intrigued when the girl from across the street comes in and shows him the hauntingly beautiful, intricate tattoo she wants him to ink onto her. It’s kind of funny, sweet, but also edgy and a little angsty. Here’s (my new review) and I’ll start the sequel, Inked Armor, soon!
Darker Water by Lauren Stewart — Recent review!!
I recently read this and loved it!! It was exactly the kind of story I was looking for: UNIQUE, FUN, & SEXY!! The banter was awesome and the chemistry was sizzling. It was almost the opposite of a traditional romance — the hero and heroine were both openly set on NOT falling in love. He was all tortured and damaged but also cocky and charming (and loaded with tattoos!!) … It was a great read!!! Oh, and it’s a standalone 😀 — (Read my Review)
Never Never by Colleen Hoover & Tarryn Fisher —Most wanted!!
