More Than Once (Chasing the Dream #4)

More Than Once




This is my second time reading a book by Elizabeth Briggs in the Chasing the Dream series and I enjoyed this book as much as the I did the previous book.  I loved Andrew's character because he was the perfect combination on a good and bad boy, but it did annoy me when he kept on giving Becca mixed signals. Becca's character was of a bad girl who was trying to put her life right and I really enjoyed the fact that she learnt from her mistakes and was not afraid to admit them. The chemistry between Becca and Andrew was was steaming hot and I loved the both sides to them. Elizabeth's writing was flawless and I loved her characters and dual point of view style of writing. The only thing I wished there was more of was drama and some stronger emotions. Overall this was a great novel filled with lovable characters and I am definitely going to read the rest of the series.

Rating: 4/5

Rock Addiction (Rock Kiss #1)

Rock Addiction




I had heard many great things about Nalini Singh's books , so when this book came up free on Amazon I decided to read it and I must say that this book did not disappoint me as it was captivating and well written.  Nalini's writing was brilliant and she manged to make me fall in love with her characters  with her well conceived plot and scenes. I loved Fox's character because he was sweet and romantic, but at the same time he was a possessive alpha male who protected what was his.  Molly's character was strong and independent and I loved that she stood up to Fox when she thought he was not right and she also believed in fighting for the man she loved even through difficult situations. The secondary characters of Fox's and Molly's friends were well written and set a good foundation for the rest of the series which I am dying to read. The chemistry between Fox and Molly was explosive and I loved that Fox was not only after a physical relationship, but also an emotional connection. Overall this was a brilliant novel with great characters and anyone who loved novels based on bands will definitely enjoy this book.

Rating: 4/5

Taming Rourke (Devereaux Billionaires #4)

Taming Rourke



This is my second time reading a book by Mallory Crowe and I really enjoyed the hot billionaires in her novels. I loved Rourke's character because he was your typical alpha male billionaire who wants to protect the girl that he is in love with, but at the same time he can be sweet and caring. Cali's character was kind of annoying because she was back and forth all the time and she seemed whiny at times. I did not really get Easson's, Colin's and Walter's characters because Mallory did not explain their roles and give us a better back story on them in this book, hence I would not suggest reading this novel as a stand alone because it can be  very confusing. Mallory's writing was good , but I felt there was a lot of loop holes in the book for example we would like to know more about Cali's character and her past as well as more about the feud between Luke and Rourke. The chemistry between Rourke and Cali was explosive and really well written. Overall this was a good book if you love alpha male billionaires and love stories filled with a bit of danger.

Rating: 3/5


Plot

Cali has realized that she has had enough of the Devereaux brothers and after many years she finally decides to quit, but then she is given an offer she cannot refuse.

Snow Angel (Hope Falls #5)

Snow Angel



This is the third book that I am reading in the Hope Falls series and the fourth by author Melanie Shawn and this book has everything you expect from this series such as a sweet and short romance and the small town charm. I enjoyed Melanie's dual point of view style of writing  and the simplicity of her characters as it made for a short and easy read. Eric's character was my favorite in the book because which girl does not love a hot alpha male in uniform, but I also loved his sweet and romantic side. Lily's character was a strong woman who has fought against all odds to survive in the cruel world and she does not use her past as an excuse to give up living which is what I enjoyed the most. The chemistry between Eric and Lily was sweet and romantic and was definitely brilliantly written. I enjoyed seeing the characters from the other books in this series, but I suggest you read the series in order because I was getting a little confused because I have not read all the characters stories. I did wish that there was more drama in the book and that the displayed the danger aspect a bit more. Overall this was a short and sweet romantic novel set in the charming town of Hope Falls and if you love dogs you will definitely enjoy this book.

Rating: 3/5


Plot

Picking Up The Pieces (Picking Up The Pieces #1)

Picking Up The Pieces



After a very long time did I enjoy a book so much to the point that I was addicted and unable to put the book down until I had completed reading it. This was my first time reading a book by Jessica Prince and I loved her writing style because it manged to evoke so many emotions from me. I loved the strength in Emerson's character because she was able to get over her heartache and move on with life and she also learnt from her past mistakes which only made her a better person. The alpha male qualities of Luke's character is what I loved most about him, but he annoyed me when he felt he just come back and apologize and that will take all the pain and heartache away and everything will go back to normal. The secondary characters in the book of all Emerson and Luke's friends were well written and conceived and I especially loved Savannah's character and her loyalty towards her best friend. The introduction of these characters definitely laid the foundation for a brilliant series. The chemistry between Luke and Emerson was good and I really enjoyed their more romantic moments together. Overall this is a brilliant book filled with strong friendships, pain, heartache and unrelenting love and it will definitely take you on a emotional roller coaster with the characters. 

Rating: 4.5/5

The Cowboy's Virgin (Whiskey Hill Ranch #1)

The Cowboy's Virgin


This is the story of family enemies falling in love and trying to fight the odds to be together. It was my first time reading a book by Emerson Rose and I really enjoyed her dual point of view writing style as well as her funny captions before each chapter. I loved Beau's character because he was sweet and charming, but at the same time he had all the alpha male qualities the I love in my male characters. Charlotte's character was that of a submissive who did what everyone told her to do and the only time she stood up for herself was against her parents. The chemistry between Beau and Charlotte was extremely hot and definitely my favorite part of the book. I also enjoyed the inclusion of Alzheimer's disease and diabetes because it made the characters and their problems more realistic. I did wish that there was more drama in the book and the family feud part of the story was explored a bit more. Overall this was a great read of enemies turning into lovers with explosive chemistry between the lead characters.

Rating: 3.5/5


Plot

Charlotte Deardon was raised to hate Beau Hill as their families have been in a 100 year long family feud. But when a tornado tears through Deardon ranch destroying everything that Charlotte's family owns, she is forced to approach the one man who can help.
