We are in Marbella in the south of Spain, for a few days of relaxation and sisterly bonding. This is the view from our balcony: I was really good this week, I only […]

Review: Rain – Amanda Sun

Review: Rain – Amanda Sun

*I received a free ARC of Rain from Harlequin Teen via Netgalley in exchange of an honest review* Rain continues Katie’s adventures in Japan, even if she was supposed to go back to the US. My Rain review: Katie hasn’t really changed very much from the beginning of Ink, the first book in the Paper Gods series. And that is probably the main reason why I wasn’t completely immersed in the story, and in Japan. She is still drawn to both Jun and Tomo, and the problems with the ink going crazy continue as well. For the two weeks she’s been back in Japan, she hasn’t been able to get a hold of Tomo, but meets him by chance at […]

Review: Stripped Away – Ellis Carrington

Review: Stripped Away – Ellis Carrington

*I received a free ARC of Stripped Away from Ellis Carrington via Netgalley in exchange of an honest review* Stripped Away is hot, complicated and heartbreaking! Dave has a hard time dealing with his father’s passing away, especially because the late pastor has shown his true colors of womanizing, embezzling and having a secret family known only after his death. My Stripped Away review: Stripped Away is an amazing story about Dave, how he’s dealing with his dad’s death, and meeting his brother Greg for the first time at the funeral. Stripped Clean, the first book in this series is about Greg, and he as well as the readers already knew about Dave, and how the pastor had lead a double […]

Review: It’s In His Kiss – Jill Shalvis

Review: It’s In His Kiss – Jill Shalvis

*I received a free ARC of It’s In His Kiss from Forever (Grand Central Publishing) via Netgalley in exchange of an honest review* Hot, sweet and romantic, It’s In His Kiss is an awesome new installment in the Lucky Harbor series. My It’s In His Kiss review: It’s In His Kiss is incredibly sweet and filled with longing. Becca has arrived in Lucky Harbor to try to patch her life back together, and she has quite a few issues she needs to work through. But Sexy Grumpy Surfer aka Sam makes it difficult for Becca to focus, which leads to quite a few funny and hot scenes. As usual, the sense of community in Lucky Harbor reaches out to Becca, […]

Review: Fanning the Flames – Victoria Dahl

Review: Fanning the Flames – Victoria Dahl

*I received a free ARC of Fanning the Flames from Harlequin HQN via Netgalley in exchange of an honest review* Short, hot and well written, Fanning the Flames appealed to me on all levels, from the mature couple to their playful ways. My Fanning the Flames review: It is actually really refreshing to read a hot romance in which the couple is more mature! Fanning the Flames features Lauren, the forty-three year-old librarian who has the hots for the firemen chief Jake who is forty-six. Their chemistry and attraction is evident from the beginning, and I really loved how self-confident Lauren was, even if she did kind of think Jake was out of her league. Happy in her own skin, […]

Blogtour and Review: Gypsy – Trisha Leigh

Blogtour and Review: Gypsy – Trisha Leigh

*I received a free ARC of Gypsy from Xpresso Booktours in exchange of an honest review* Welcome to my stop on the Gypsy Blogtour! I have my review and favorite quotes to share with you, as well as a giveaway 🙂 My Gypsy review: Gypsy is a creepy science-fiction novel, in which teens with strange genetic mutations are first seen in an abandoned plantation in Charleston, until police shows up, and some of them are returned to their families – or what is left of their families, anyway. Mysterious, troubling and very eerie, Gypsy managed to keep me on my toes all through the story, and I never knew what to expect. After the cavies are released, their lives change […]
