Book Review: Kiss Me Honey Honey

Image

What more could you expect when two disco devils become obsessed with a not-so-innocent angel? My Review Dante and Kat are the Disco Devils. They demand respect and grab all the attention of everyone in the room. Even, I felt the magnetic draw they have. I love how close Kat and Dante are with each other. Dante calling Kat "Kitty Kat" is sweet but shows his love for her as well.  When you bring in Dot, the dynamics change and for the better. Dot seemed so innocent, but she is a wildcard. Who knew under those angel wings that she was a firecracker. If you mess with one of these three, you better be ready to face the other two.  While she is not part of the group rela...

Book Feature Wild Irish Rose

Image
  Book 1 of 6: The Merriams BLURB// International Bestselling Author Ava Miles kicks off another blockbuster feel-good family series with an irreverent hero, two well-intentioned matchmakers, and a heroine as beautiful as a wild Irish rose. A  USA Today  Bestseller. Billionaire Trevor Merriam doesn’t like being ordered around by his older brother, much less to a sleepy Irish village to complete a business deal for their family company. Worse: the owner of the land he needs to buy doesn’t want him there. In fact, Becca O’Neill loathes him so much that she won’t even serve him the award-winning scones her famed Wild Irish Rose Bed and Breakfast is known for. Even worse than that (and not getting scones is bad in Trevor’s book): Becca has an ornery cat, a mischievous Irish setter, and a lovesick alpaca that delights in chasing him around. Then there’s the woman herself. If she weren’t so indignant about his business offer, they might have a good romance budding. Worst of all...

Book Review: The Other Side of Apart

Image
  A powerful first love story that pulls you into the beauty and struggles of fighting for what you want despite the odds. Weaving the darkness of past hurt with the light of new romance, The Other Side of Apart is perfect for fans of Jandy Nelson and Amber Smith. Marcus had life figured out—a hard earned 4.0, hours of intense soccer training, and a full-ride to Stanford to kickstart his dream future. Running away with his secret girlfriend to escape a crazed criminal was never part of his plan. But Mei Li is worth leaving perfection behind for even if she’s tangled in her family’s lies and has a stalker ex-boyfriend. She’s funny, sexy, brave, and most of all—impossibly—she and Marcus are together again. So worth it. However, together isn't the rings-on-their-fingers, back-of-the-motorcycle perfect they’d hoped it would be. Marcus desperately clings to the dream future he still wants while Mei is haunted by memories of her abusive past.  So when that past catches up to them, f...

Book Review: Addicted Lies

Image
  He gets addicted to things too easily…and I’m no exception. Ford Ivanov follows the rules. I was born to break them. A single scandalous moment turns into a year of lies, stolen kisses behind closed doors, and whispered promises in the night. Sneaking around with my brother’s friend is forbidden. Because where I come from, love isn't just dangerous. It’s deadly. The lies are unraveling. And in a world where love is a weakness, we’re about to find out just how strong we really are. My Review I loved Ford and Hawke from the prior book. You could say I was beyond excited to learn that Ford's story was next. Ford's story is more than I could imagine.  The angsty intensity between Billie and Ford is the chef's kiss! The way these two craved each other but would not say those words, kept me on the edge of my seat in anticipation. The sneaky moments shared between these two with each time "almost" getting caught just hyped up the intensity.  "There's somet...
