The Roommate by Rosie Danan @rosiedanan @berkleyromance #bookreview #bookblogger

Kaceey’s Review: ⚠️⚠️Excessive heat warning 🌡🌡 in effect for entire length of this book! ⚠️⚠️ Sometimes I pick up these rom-coms so innocently. Perhaps naïvely assuming they will be a fun, sweet read with a dash of romance to make me go…“awww”. And occasionally I come away with a hot🔥 and spicy number that knocks myContinue reading “The Roommate by Rosie Danan @rosiedanan @berkleyromance #bookreview #bookblogger”

The Push by Ashley Audrain

Susanne’s Review: What does it take to be a Good Mother? Don’t ask ME that question. For I am not one, nor did I have a typical one. Mine was a combination of two of the mothers detailed here in “The Push” and because of that, my view of this novel is admittedly, somewhat skewed. Even IContinue reading “The Push by Ashley Audrain”

This Time Next Year by Sophie Cousens

All of which she pours intoContinue reading “Excuse Me While I Ugly Cry by Joya Goffney”

The Cactus by Sarah Haywood

Susanne’s Review: What does it take to find your true self?  Life-Changing Events. Susan is a 45 (forty-five) year-old woman who is prickly as a pear or rather as prickly as cactus if I’m going to get technical. Friendly isn’t exactly her forte. Set in her ways, Susan prefers routine and likes to be alone.Continue reading “The Cactus by Sarah Haywood”
