*** NEW TOP RECOMMENDATION ***
The Mason List by SD Hendrickson (Read my Review)
HOLY WOW!!! This book was just BREATHTAKING!! I absolutely LOVED it and truly FELT this story with all my heart and soul. My heart raced with the intensity as this epic childhood friends-to-lovers romance built over the years and I honestly had tears in my eyes for the whole last 80% of the book. And that epilogue was perfect!!! This easily was one of the most BEAUTIFUL stories I’ve read.
A TOP FAVORITE STANDALONE (HEA). 5 STARS!!!
*** LATEST NEW RELEASES ***
Never Never by Colleen Hoover & Tarryn Fisher — New Release!!
OMG!!! This is live several days early and it is AMAZING!!! (My spoiler free review)
Best friends since they could walk. In love since they were fourteen.
Complete strangers since this morning.
He’ll do anything to remember.
She’ll do anything to forget.
Falling Away by Penelope Douglas — New Release!!
This is the highly-anticipated latest novel in the Fall Away series.
“He’s the guy she’s supposed to avoid. She’s the girl he won’t let get away.”
It is recommended to read this series in order even though the books are about different couples as they are strongly interconnected.
Reading order: Bully, Until You, Rival, Falling Away.
With A Twist by Sawyer Bennett — New Release!!
This is the latest standalone in the Last Call series. It sounds SO good!!
The hero is a cop sent deep undercover to investigate a sex slave ring. His focus is staying alive in a dark and dangerous underworld. His partner is a female FBI agent who is also involved just as deeply as he is — and she’s the bait… posing as an erotic dancer in an attempt to snare the enemy. And as the sparks fly between them, he’s caught between the job he loves and the woman he wants…
Last Call by Alice Clayton — New Release!!
This new Simon + Caroline novella wraps up this sexy and hilarious series. Series order: Wallbanger, Rusty Nailed, Screwdrivered, Mai Tai’d Up, Last Call.
“It’s been a grand adventure, and Caroline and Simon wouldn’t go out without the best surprise ending ever. One part sexy, one part laughter, a dash of exotic locales, and one pink nightie, mixed with passion, and you’ve got Last Call. Served with a side of Clive.”
Absolution by Amanda Dick — New Release!!
OMG!!! This made my heart squeeze! I want to read this!! It seems to be a second chance romance standalone with a deeply heart-wrenching core. — After a car accident shatters his girlfriend’s spine, Jack McKenna disappeared. Desperate to escape the guilt, he spent four years hiding in the shadows, punishing himself for not having the courage to go back to her. Then, out of the blue, a phone call forces him to face up to everything and everyone he left behind… especially her.
The Life Intended by Kristin Harmel — New Release!!
This sounds really good! — After her husband’s sudden death over ten years ago, Kate never expected to find another love of her life. But now she’s planning her second walk down the aisle. So why isn’t she more excited? … When she starts seeing her late husband in her dreams, she begins to wonder if he’s trying to tell her something? Attempting to navigate between dreams and reality, Kate must uncover her husband’s hidden message…
Razorblade Kisses by RL Griffin — New Release!!
Ooooh, this story sounds so intriguing!! It’s a standalone.
“She doesn’t know who she is, she tried to run, to hide and make a life for herself… When her house of cards comes tumbling down she runs again, until the one person who can change her mind finds her… Take a breath before you start this one. It’s gritty and not pretty. Nothing is pretty here.”
Losing Romeo by Cindi Madsen — New Release!!
Oooh!! This is a modern twist on the Romeo & Juliet story (but loosely based on it, with a different plot and a different ending it seems). — The heroine seems to be actually screwed over by Romeo and ends up in jail and is then forced to go live with her aunt. The hero lives next door. His racing career was destroyed the night he was attacked and his knee shattered. Now he has to walk with the help of a cane. He’s kept to himself for a long time, but then she moves in. Even though he’s sure she’s trouble, he can’t deny his attraction to her…
Fifty Shades of Grey movie tie-in paperback
The new paperback version of Fifty Shades of Grey is now available with a hot new “movie tie-in” cover. The book itself is the same and this is not a replacement, it’s just a fun new addition for fans of the movie who want it. The original cover will still be available purchase as always. But I grabbed one because I wanted a copy of this cover too just for fun!! I love the picture they used — it’s both HOT & SWEET and really speaks to the love story at the heart of this trilogy!!
Contradictions by Tiffany King — New Release!!
This college romance can be read as a standalone and sounds different!
The heroine is a wild partier and the hero is “the classic anti–bad boy: smart, boring, and way too serious… There’s no way in hell they’re compatible… But when a college prank goes terribly wrong, she has to turn to the last person she ever thought she’d ask for help — and quickly discovers that there’s more to him than meets the eye…
Gooseberry Island by Steven Manchester — New Release!!
Oh, I love military romances and this new standalone caught my eye!! — “They met at the worst possible moment… or maybe it was just in time. He was about to go to war and she was there at his going-away party, capturing his heart when falling for a woman was the last thing on his mind. While he was serving his country, he stayed in close contact with her. But war changes a person, and when he came home very little had the same meaning that it had before – including the romance that had sustained him. Was love truly unconquerable?”
Fire On Ice: Complete Series by Brenda Rothert — New Release!!
This complete series of five full length romances about “hot hockey stars and the women who steal their hearts” has been bundled for $5.99 (worth $14.95).
I’ve heard really great things about this series — many readers have recommended it to me so this is a great deal if you want to test it out. The first 2 books are about the same couple, the next 3 are standalones about different couples.

*** MY MOST RECENT FAVORITES ***
The Pact by Karina Halle (Read my Review)
If you’re looking for a standalone to fall in love with, this friend-to-lovers romance was fun, hot, a little angsty, and kept me glued to the page!!
The hero is a ruggedly handsome helicopter pilot. The heroine is an ambitious businesswoman. They’ve been best friends forever. Back in their 20’s, they made a pact to marry each other if neither one of them are in a serious relationship by the time they hit thirty… And as they get closer, their pact is put to the test!!
Bad Romeo by Leisa Rayven (Read my Review)
SQUEE!! I absolutely LOOOOVED this book!!! It’s a second chance romance with a moody, brooding, tortured bad boy hero and this INTENSE “hate-to-love-each-other”, dysfunctional-but-can’t-stay-away, love-you-forever-no-matter-how-painful type of love story. It just had this SPARK that made my heart RACE!! 5 STARS!!
“If you want me to apologize, I’ll do it until I lose my fucking voice. I just want things to be right between us. Talk to me. Help me fix this.”
Clipped Wings by Helena Hunting
I recently 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 review) and I’ll start the sequel, Inked Armor, soon!
