Never Judge a Book by its Cover…Except This One

‘Never judge a book by its cover’ is a phrase we all know well, but in this case the cover is stunning and so is the story within.

While LJ Evans takes us along Fiadh and Asher’s journey of love and healing, she might just have you reaching for a tissue.

They both wear a mask that is not necessarily accurate to who they are. In fact, while Asher is ridiculously handsome, his attitude to the Daisy’s is downright ugly.
And Fiadh’s is to protect the other Daisies from seeing her pain. Her loneliness.

Green Jewell is a story about love, loss, loneliness and healing. It can be a lesson for all of us to remember—that not everything we see is truth and instead is what others want you to believe.

The Painted Daisies Series is a steamy romance full of suspense and an absolute must read!

Ashton and Nova's HEA is hard earned. Avery kicked up the heat on this one too. OLS has so many layers of heartache, passion and love. It's not just about Nova and Ash, it's the family healing and the connection you see in each one of the members. It brought out so many emotions. The way Avery Maxwell creates empathy for her characters is incredible. I felt the hurt, the pain, the angst and the inevitable harmony their journey brought to the entire Westbrook family.

While you will get Nova and Ash’s HEA in One Little Secret, this book would have more impact if you read the previous books in both the Broken Hearts Series and The Westbrook Series. It’s a binge-worthy series.

I started reading JS Scott's billionaire series when I first started reading romance in 2015. That should tell you something about her writing. She's one of my favorites.

Billionaire Unclaimed: Chase is no exception. Another fantastic story. You have to love when the best friend of the hero's sister becomes the object of your affection. Savannah also was drawn to Chase for a while.

Forced proximity after Vanna's kidnapping allowed for their friendship to build. With some heartache and loss of a job, and Chase's transparency they finally allowed each other to see how they really felt for one another.

This book had some suspense, a little angst and a lot of heat. I am excited for Wyatt's book.

The Image of You was a unique story and will take you on a rollercoaster of emotions.

This book honestly blew me away. I loved each phase of Ally and Adam's relationship. I was warm and fuzzy, then broken and anxious, then back to so flipping ecstatic. The author would have me so engrossed in whatever emotion and then BAM, I would be laughing at something Adam said. The emotions Melanie Moreland brought out of me was nothing short of amazing.

Definitely add this book to the top of your TBR.

I could not put this book down! Grab your tissues and get ready for the ride.

Samantha Christy brought out many emotions while I was reading. She wrote about real, painful life issues with compassion. Their loss, grief, anger and love bled onto the pages throughout their story.

Cooper Calloway was a mystery. He was an adventurer trying to forget his past. His loss.
Disregarding his safety. Until he didn't have a choice but to be still. With that stillness came a purpose. He just didn't realize it would bring back a piece of his past, along with pain and longing.

Serenity ran from their small town as soon as her fiancé was buried and hadn't been back. But her dad needed her. And she couldn't–no wouldn't–say no.

They were friends before Chaz died and had so much to overcome before they could move forward.

Untaken Twin has become my favorite Samantha Christy book yet!

Sunshine and Sammy was a sweet story with loads of heat. It made me laugh, smile and swoon-sometimes with a fan.
Luke is the ultimate cinnamon roll hero. His grumpy demeanor slowly melted away under the sunshine smile of Sammy. He was a tough one to crack but when he did he was swoon-worthy. Sammy was every bit of the personalities of her parents, Van and Liv (Characters from the must read, Vested series by Melanie Moreland). Strong, sweet and sassy.
I definitely would recommend this book.

Incredible story of love everlasting. Unfinished Ex is definitely a must read book.

Life isn't always pretty. There are fun times, sad times and sometimes there are downright impossible times. Decisions are made. Hearts are broken. This book will take you through it all. Samantha Christy is the queen of emotions. Every. Single. Book. But she always makes beauty out of the chaos and gives the lovely couples a happy ever after.

𝙒𝙞𝙩𝙝𝙤𝙪𝙩 𝙖 𝙃𝙞𝙩𝙘𝙝 is without a doubt another hit for Avery Maxwell. This book was fun, emotional and H. O. T.

One night of unforgettable s3x and fun is all it took to put a crack in Lochlan's armor. He's closed off, protective of those he loves, and a dirty talker.

Tilly is resilient, full of love and the friend that every woman wants to have by their side. She's been through so much in her life that she will not give up the fairy tale she's had since she was 10.

Avery is always a one-click author to me. Do yourself a favor and grab this book today.

While this was a quick and short read, it really packed a punch. Melanie Moreland created a beautiful love story between Maggie and Sebastian. The pain of loneliness that Maggie felt and Sebastian's feelings of not being accepted were tangible. Grab yourself your favorite warm drink and get settled because you won't want to put the book down until the last page is read.

It was nice to be back in the Reynold’s Restoration world. I thoroughly enjoyed the characters. Stefano is the man most single moms dream of. But Gabby isn’t just another single mom. She is protective and fierce. And it makes Stefano want her more. Stefano really takes to Theo, but who wouldn’t. Theo nearly stole the show. Breaking the Speed Limit is a beautiful, single mom, found family love story that I’m sure you’ll love as much as I did.

Another fantastic book from JS Scott. I loved how Leo just knew that Macy was different. He was patient and showed so much compassion towards her. Macy, broke my heart. The pain was tangible on the page and I was so happy when she truly started to live–with her boundaries in place. Their journey was beautiful and heartbreaking at the same time. As with all JS Scott book, this is a must read.

This is my absolute favorite book in the series and is probably tied witch Catching Caden as my favorite Samantha Christy book.
Texas Roses starts off full of heat, has you crying–typical Samantha Christy book–and then has you swooning at the end. Quinn and Amber have many layers and help each other peel back the lies that people have told them and that they've told themselves until they are both able to see what amazing people they are and all they have to offer to others. This a must read book!
