Wylde

Genre: Sports, Contemporary Romance

My rating: 4.5 of 5 stars

MY REVIEW

"This is probably fated for disaster. But I like you, Clarke."

Clearly, "fame clearly isn't everything" - I can just hear Professor Snape saying thing over and over again in my head after I finished reading the book.

Oddly the book was not as intense as I expected it to be. I don't even know why I expected intensity when, let's be real here, I have not read any books in this series so I really have no room to judge. I have Dominik's book just sitting here with me and I somehow just didn't know how I missed reading it. Anyways, I figured at the end of reading Wylde that the whole reason I got the book in the first place was because of the blurb. Honestly, it sounded intense and so good to me.

They are like worlds apart but they ultimately have something in common that makes their bond possibly stronger is part of the compatibility formula.

Naughty Boss

by Whitney G.

Series: Steamy Coffee Collection #1

Genre: Novella, Contemporary Romance

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

MY REVIEW

"Are you going to give me a chance to be nice or are you going to spend the night acting like we're at the office?"

That's one hot Novella!

You know, if there was anything that I love other than sports romance and second chances? It's these heroes in Suit that could make me bend my knees and pray they were real!

The energy in this whole read was so intense I feel like I could freaking touch it with my bare hands!The little epilogue though was short but cute! I wished for a little more background with their relationship but it wasn't really necessary as their chemistry was already on point and telling some time later! It was the emails that did me. Hilarious and somewhat serious. Also, that was some INTENSE scenes! I literally fanned myself! I have no other words for Mya but strong and sometimes clumsy. Michael is everything!

Feisty

by Julia Kent

Series: Do-Over #3

Genre: Contemporary Romance

My rating: 4.5 of 5 stars

MY REVIEW

"Everything is changing. Everyone is changing. Everyone but me."

Lets see, this has romance in it, quirky banter, a whole lot of unexpected sweetness and intense innuendos plus it also comes with humor? Get out!

There were a lot of parts where I giggled, laughed out loud and chuckled. This book was a complete delight. I love it. I can't help but feel like I lucked out on this one. I am so happy I got the book. It wasn't the best but it was definitely worth reading. To be honest, I have not read the other books in this series but I got absolutely hooked in this one!

Also, could this book pass as chick lit? I think it does because the POV is only the heroine's and it has that absolute relief at the end. No major conflict but multiple confusions towards the heroine's feelings and personal issues were everywhere!

The Teaching Hours

by Sara Ney

Series: How to Date a Douchebag, #5.5
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Genre: New Adult, Novella

MY REVIEW

"First lesson in dealing with a guy: they don’t see anything in gray—it’s usually either black or white, so best get to the point. Guys don’t think like you do, so make it simple."

I loved this series. Admittedly I didn't read all of them but I've read most. Everything about Rex has become a blur to me but I vaguely remember him being mentioned in the previous installments. Hannah was also slightly introduced in the previous installment and I remembered having a love-hate judgement with her but in this Novella, she sounded like a really strong-willed and level-headed woman. But she got some attitude. Rex, he was just being a guy and very straightforward which was what I loved about him most.

Sweet and Quick! Doesn't satisfy my hunger to have more from my series but makes it up some how.

Save The Date

by Monica Murphy

Series: Dating #1
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Genre: Chick Lit, Contemporary Romance

MY REVIEW

It's barely a second chance romance. It's more like, how about we see what we could have been if we happened?

It's like a blast from the past but you were really young so you barely remember anything and now that it's back in your life you were thinking how did you not see what it could have been if you did anything about it?

First, It has been quite a while since I last read a good chick lit. I actually picked this book up awhile back and it just got stuffed in the back so when I came back to read the blurb again, I realized why I even picked it up. Chick Lit Romances always always has that feel good ending which at some point is what we always look for especially after reading some other genres with serious tones, angst or something that would drive our emotional sense to a roller coaster.

The Trade

by Meghan Quinn

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Genre: Contemporary Romance, Sports Romance

MY REVIEW

Not settling for less does not only apply to the ladies. If you want to know what I mean then get on with reading this one!

I'm telling you right now, this is one of the best that I've read this year! Bad time right person, right time wrong place and all the FEELS!

description

I could honestly just go on and on about this book. My emotions were everywhere! I loved how Cory just doesn't want to settle for less, I love that THEY HAVE A THING after their date and that Cory's good guy persona is just about to make me ball out and cry.

Mister Tonight by Kendall Ryan

My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Type: Stand Alone

MY REVIEW

I'm so sorry but oh my god, this is the first one that I did not get to finish this year and I feel like I should be disappointed in myself.

Now do not get me wrong, I absolutely LOVE Kendall Ryan from the Filthy Beautiful series to Hot Jocks but there will really be days when you really don't get connected with the books you read.
