REVIEW
Reviewer: Chelsea
Rating: 4.5 Groupie Stars

We are finally getting Austin, Pike’s brother’s story! I’ve been hoping to get a book for him since we met him in book 2 of this series!!  


When these two met they didn’t have time for actual relationships. Austin was a Navy SEAL and Sage is heading to deployment. They form a friendship but as time passes it evolves. 


Sage is my favorite type of heroine! She is smart, independent and will always speak her mind. Austin, though having a tough childhood, blossomed in the Gallo  family. I truly love the Gallo world and these two and their chemistry and story were great additions to the series!! One Click Approved!

REVIEW
Reviewer: Kim
Rating: 4 Groupie Stars

Cold as Ice was another great read in The Lakeshore U series.
I’ve been waiting and so curious about this book. It didn’t disappoint. The author really took me on a journey.
 Austin has been the most stand off ish and curious character so far. He was a hurt character who I needed to no more about. He is so complex and didn’t want anyone end read him. So Maddison coming in had a rough ride where he was concerned. Neither character whined anything serious but It was still full of angst.
I loved watching their characters grow and sort through all their baggage together and grew together.
Another great book.

Gabe is the stereotypical CEO. He’s a millionaire, workaholic who doesn’t want to settle down. Then Gabe meets Diana, who is recently single and a white picket fence girl. 


These two had so much chemistry! I loved that the author is always so good at giving the perfect mix of steam and sweet! I love the world of the Whitley brothers and I was so happy to get more from them!! 


Though the CEO troupe is done a lot, Layla has the ability to keep the readers interest and make me fall in love with her characters! 


I honestly can’t wait to see who Grandma Jeanie sets her sights on setting up next!

Title: Damaged Goods
Series: All Saints High #4
Author: L.J. Shen
Genre: New Adult Romance
Tropes: Friends to Enemies to Lovers/Football Romance
Release Date: January 23, 2024


BLURB

From L.J. Shen, the USA Today bestselling author of Pretty Reckless, comes a brand new book in the All Saints series.

Underneath the goody two-shoes persona is damaged goods…but can the bad boy across the street save her?

Bailey Followhill is the perfect daughter. Sweet. Charitable. Pretty. Control freak. Not a hair out of place, not an inch out of line, she is everything her troublemaking sister Daria isn't. But when her A game turns out to be a lukewarm C- at Juilliard, Bailey's picture-ready life starts fraying faster than the worn satin ribbons of her pointe shoes. She's becoming a piece of gossip. The Troubled Child. A drug abuser. No longer the girl her best friend once knew.

Lev Cole is so golden, he's got the Midas Touch. Prized quarterback. Football captain. Hottest guy in SoCal. A textbook cliché. But with a girlfriend he doesn't love and a career path he doesn't value, Lev is coasting.
The only two things he cares about, Bailey and becoming a pilot, are out of reach.

But Lev is done being satisfied with the life others have chosen for him. He wants to pick his own cards. To demolish the seamless kingdom of lies his family stitched together on the ruins his mother left behind.

The question is, can he save his best friend and his dream before too much damage is done?

Another LJ shen book that absolutely hits the spot. 
This was up with the best of her books for me. It was a sweet journey through out but along the way is absolutely heartbreaking moments as well. 
The book was full to the max with angst that I can never get enough of. 
This book was slightly different to the authors books as there is suspicion throughout the story as well as beautiful complicated moments.
I really enjoyed it

Hands down my favorite of the series!!
Second chance at love is my favorite type of romance.
I love a story good meddling jealous female trying to get with him.
Our man didn't want more than friendship but she was on a serious mission. A mission that caused years of separation and heartache for our couple.
But when their eyes met their hearts reconnected and the anger faded the hurt lessened and I sat back enjoying every minute.
Add some drama, some danger and that love from the crazy circus family making it a great story.
Can't wait for more I am really enjoying this series.

This book hit all the right notes. It was definitely a book I couldn’t put down and binged on.
I’ve read all the authors books and this one is up there with the best of the best. Very well written.
I feel in love with Via and Reid. I loved the “older” women aspect as I’ve never read a book like that Reid having his own journey together and personally  
I loved the depth of Reid’s character and really getting in to his inner thoughts.
Overall the story was beautiful written story and well written.

Jessica and Hayes make an epic team 🥰

So Jessica is on date with a guy she matched up with on a dating app but look this guy is a real chop he’s not really interested I her but more into connections and who she knows , as a said what a chop , anyhoo Heyes comes to her rescue …


Jessica was an intern at Heyes’s company and she learnt a lot from him and she always had a crush on him and now that’s she’s no longer then but running a company on her own , she fair game , no complaint rules are being broken ….

Jessica is doing really well for herself and recently won awards as well so he knows for sure she’s interested in him and not what she can gain from him , after a misunderstanding of sorts the other party involved clears the air with Jessica so Mara scored brownie points with me , good on you girlfriend 😉


This was such a fun read for an afternoon with a coffee and chocolate and there was some steam to add a bit of spice , a perfect blend ❣️📚 J.H. Croix never disappoints, whenever it’s a novella or a full length novel it’s always a treat 😉

Review Tour: What Happens at the Lake by Vi Keeland

 




Title: What Happens at the Lake
Author: Vi Keeland
Genre: Standalone Contemporary Romance
Trope: Grumpy-Sunshine
Release Date: January 15, 2024


BLURB

When life took an unexpected turn, I decided to get out of New York for a while. What better place to go than the idyllic small town my father spoke about so fondly when I was growing up? Laurel Lake held the title America’s Friendliest Town for seventeen years running, and friendly was just what I needed right now.

Unfortunately, friendly wasn’t the welcome I got when I arrived.

Instead, I got Fox Cassidy. My tall, dark, and burly neighbor, who grunted at me instead of saying hello.

Okay, so I might’ve had his mailbox in my hands the first time we met. And it might’ve been a little crushed after removing it from under my tire. And I might’ve needed his help breaking into the place I was staying in after the key broke off in the lock. But still…he didn’t have to be so grumpy.

As time went on though, I started to notice things about Fox other than his glares. Like how he watched me when he thought I wasn’t looking, or how fire ignited in his eyes whenever we bickered. Though I was in Laurel Lake to escape my problems, not create new ones. And getting involved with a man like Fox screamed trouble, even if he was gorgeous and unlike any man I’d ever met.

But alas, problem seemed to be my middle name this year. So why not have some fun while I was here for the summer? It seemed like a good plan. At least until it was time to go home…

They say what happens at the lake, stays at the lake. But it’s not so easy to walk away when what stays behind…is your heart.

 Blurb: She’s the only girl he’s ever loved. Zowen Archer has been in love with Aston Wheeler for as long as he can remember. She’s perfect, except for the glaring fact that she fell in love with his best friend instead of him. For years, he loved her from afar with zero expectation. He told himself that as long as Aston was happy, his feelings for her didn’t matter. However, Aston isn’t nearly as happy as she seems. And by the time Zowen figures things out, his life takes a drastic turn for the worse. Now that Aston is single and laser-focused on making up for the lost time between the two of them, Zowen is doing everything in his power to avoid her. He’s convinced that if she never wanted him when he was at his very best, there is no chance in hell she could care about him now that he’s at his absolute worst. He’s the only boy she’s willing to wait for. Time has never been on Aston Wheeler’s side. She spent too long pretending to be someone she was not. She lost herself in a first love that everyone, except her, thought was perfect. She wasted a lot of time trying to convince herself that she should be happy when she was anything but. She watched for years as the one person who made her feel like her true self drifted further and further away. Finally, when she’s ready to reach out and grab the one-of-a-kind love that Zowen Archer has always silently promised her, it’s too late. Zowen is taken away, and when he reappears in her life, he makes it clear there’s no going back to whatever they might have been. Good thing for Zowen that Aston is patient and doesn’t mind waiting for him to have a change of heart. It’s the least she can do after all the time he spent waiting for her. 


REVIEW
Reviewer: Chelsea
Rating: 4 Groupie Stars

This book is the final in the series and it was a great ending. We get to see some of the OG characters. Zowen has always love Ashton, but choices he made in the past made his feel undeserving of her. Plus she was dating Ryan when she was younger. 


Time has passed and now Ashton has started a new life in California and when he needs a hand she lets him stay with her. 


These two were great together but oh so frustrating at times. These two eventually get it together but lord did they test my patience. 


Another great addition and another great series! 1 click approved

Loving Romeo by Laura Pavlov is now live! From USA Today and Amazon Bestselling Author Laura Pavlov, comes a new Small Town, Enemies to Lovers, Standalone Sports Romance in the brand new Magnolia Falls Series. Demi Crawford was Magnolia Falls royalty. I was the boxer from the wrong side of the tracks. She was the epitome of everything good, while I was broody and rebellious. We couldn’t be more different. Her family was enemy number one which made her guilty by association. I despised her before I even knew her. It was easier that way. But now she’d moved in next door to me, and she was everywhere I turned. I couldn’t avoid her no matter how hard I tried. She was beautiful and honest and sweet. Everything I knew I shouldn’t want. Shouldn’t need. They say there’s a fine line between love and hate—and I don’t know when I crossed over. I was so wrapped up in this girl I couldn’t see straight. She was the right hook I never saw coming. Hating her was supposed to be my end game. Loving her… well, that was just the beginning. But the secrets that lived between us threatened to tear us apart. Lucky for her—I was a born fighter. And she was definitely worth the fight.

Laura Pavlov never disappoints! She has the Midas touch ! What she pens is always ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Demi has lived a privileged and sheltered life but as a Crawford there’s a stigma attached to her and she’s determined to make it on her own and she’s living her dream with “Magnolia Beans “ her little coffe shop that’s next door to gym , most of the folks there are friendly except for Roman , he’s like a beat with a sore tooth 🤷‍♀️🙈

Roman and his brothers have an intense dislike for the Crawford family and I can’t say I blame them but 2 of the brothers , Nash and Kingston helped Demi with her renovations and got to know her and they’re convinced she’s innocent and doesn’t have a clue about what her family is capable of but Roman isn’t so sure …..

Slade is Demi’s older brother but has a massive drug addiction and he is in and out of rehab and one night he’s so desperate he does something stupid and Roman comes to her rescue…

Roman is in for the fight of his professional career e actually came out of retirement for it and his opponent is a real piece of work and I won’t mention his name as he deserves no “ airtime “ and I’m not sure who I dislike the most Demi’s dad or this boxer …. Both are awful but I must be honest , her dad is a waste of space and oxygen , there I said it ! He’s an awful man ! Just thinking of everything he’s done and the pain he’s caused I want to be sick 🤮

Ok so now that I’ve vented let me just tell you to be prepared for a few rounds of magic ! Some rounds are harder than others but this is a read about redemption , forgiveness , family , hard work , challenges, greed , addiction , power hungry bullies , grace , humility and love !

I fell in love with a little boy that could charm the habit off of a nun 🙈🤣🥰 and the world better watch out when Cutler aka ” Beefcake”grows up 😉

This is a read and town where friends become family ❣️📚can’t wait to come back to Magnolia Falls!

Review Blitz: What Happens at the Lake by Vi Keeland

 




Title: What Happens at the Lake
Author: Vi Keeland
Genre: Standalone Contemporary Romance
Trope: Grumpy-Sunshine
Release Date: January 15, 2024


BLURB

When life took an unexpected turn, I decided to get out of New York for a while. What better place to go than the idyllic small town my father spoke about so fondly when I was growing up? Laurel Lake held the title America’s Friendliest Town for seventeen years running, and friendly was just what I needed right now.

Unfortunately, friendly wasn’t the welcome I got when I arrived.

Instead, I got Fox Cassidy. My tall, dark, and burly neighbor, who grunted at me instead of saying hello.

Okay, so I might’ve had his mailbox in my hands the first time we met. And it might’ve been a little crushed after removing it from under my tire. And I might’ve needed his help breaking into the place I was staying in after the key broke off in the lock. But still…he didn’t have to be so grumpy.

As time went on though, I started to notice things about Fox other than his glares. Like how he watched me when he thought I wasn’t looking, or how fire ignited in his eyes whenever we bickered. Though I was in Laurel Lake to escape my problems, not create new ones. And getting involved with a man like Fox screamed trouble, even if he was gorgeous and unlike any man I’d ever met.

But alas, problem seemed to be my middle name this year. So why not have some fun while I was here for the summer? It seemed like a good plan. At least until it was time to go home…

They say what happens at the lake, stays at the lake. But it’s not so easy to walk away when what stays behind…is your heart.
