Kaceey’s Review: I had somewhat of a love-dislike relationship with this book. Pull up a chair and I’ll explain. The premise grabbed me right away and knew it was a must-read for me! Maya wants to surprise her boyfriend who’s presently across the country in California on business. It’s Maya’s birthday and her surprise isContinue reading “The Meeting Point by Olivia Lara @olilara_writes @NetGalley #romance #fiction #bookreview”

When Sparks Fly by Helena Hunting @HelenaHunting @MacmillanAudio @NetGalley #bookblogger #romance #bookreview
Kaceey’s Review: Avery Spark and her sisters run an events hotel in Colorado. It’s Avery’s burning passion, and her sisters? Well, they support her dream and are all in with just one caveat…Avery must run the show. Avery’s personal life isn’t nearly as exciting as her professional life. She lives with her long time (male)Continue reading “When Sparks Fly by Helena Hunting @HelenaHunting @MacmillanAudio @NetGalley #bookblogger #romance #bookreview”
It Started with a Dog (Lucky Dog #2) by Julia London @JuliaFLondon @BerkleyPub @NetGalley #romcom #contemporaryfiction #bookbloggers #rottiepuppy
Susanne’s Review: Seriously Cute, though a Tad Predictable. A Ridiculous Lyft Share Ends with an Inadvertent Phone Swap and a Meet Cute. If only life worked out this way, for real! Ha. When Harper Thompson and Jonah Rodgers inadvertently swap phones during a wild Lyft share, they of course start swapping text messages. The factContinue reading “It Started with a Dog (Lucky Dog #2) by Julia London @JuliaFLondon @BerkleyPub @NetGalley #romcom #contemporaryfiction #bookbloggers #rottiepuppy”
Cul-de-sac by Joy Fielding @joyfielding @randomhouse @NetGalley #Thriller #Suspense #Contemporary #Bookblogger #Bookreview
Kaceey’s Review: Oh what scandalous, delectable fun! I just adore neighborhood books and this was among the best of them! A shot rings out in the night. One neighbor is dead. Of course, everyone wants answers. Although there’s a considerable list of characters in this book, Ms. Fielding did an amazing job of bringingContinue reading “Cul-de-sac by Joy Fielding @joyfielding @randomhouse @NetGalley #Thriller #Suspense #Contemporary #Bookblogger #Bookreview”
The Charm Offensive by Alison Cochrun @AlisonCochrun @AtriaBooks @NetGalley #lgbtqia #romcom #fiction #contemporaryfiction #mentalhealth #bookreview #bookblogger
Susanne’s Review: So much more than a Rom-Com! Have you ever gone into a book expecting one thing and getting something else entirely? Well, that is exactly what happened to me when reading The Charm Offensive. I expected an LGBTQIA+ rom-com, and what I got was a book centering around acceptance, identity, mental health, self-esteem,Continue reading “The Charm Offensive by Alison Cochrun @AlisonCochrun @AtriaBooks @NetGalley #lgbtqia #romcom #fiction #contemporaryfiction #mentalhealth #bookreview #bookblogger”
The Forever Girl (Wildstone #6) by Jill Shalvis #jillshalvis #fiction #contemporaryfiction #womensfiction #libraryloan
Susanne’s Review: There’s just something about Wildstone. Returning to Wildstone for her best friend’s wedding isn’t easy. After all, it’s been several years and Maze walked away for a reason. Leaving everyone behind broke her heart. Once part of a foster family that included her estranged best friend Cat, baby sister Heather, and Walker, theContinue reading “The Forever Girl (Wildstone #6) by Jill Shalvis #jillshalvis #fiction #contemporaryfiction #womensfiction #libraryloan”
Finlay Donovan Knocks ‘Em Dead (Finlay Donovan #2) by Ellie Cosimano @ElleCosimano @MinotaurBooks @NetGalley
Kaceey’s Review: She’s at it again! Finlay Donovan is a mystery novelist currently (well, almost always) in the throes of yet another writer’s block. The primary inspiration for her next book will come from her everyday life. Because Finlay’s life is in fact, just crazy enough to work as a piece of fiction! I believeContinue reading “Finlay Donovan Knocks ‘Em Dead (Finlay Donovan #2) by Ellie Cosimano @ElleCosimano @MinotaurBooks @NetGalley”
the Heart Principle by Helen Hoang @HHoangWrites @Dreamscapeaudio @librofm #contemporary #romance #fiction #bookreview #bookblogger
Kaceey’s Review: Oh my gosh. I went into this read expecting a fun romance. Yes, I heard there were some deeper themes involved. But truly I thought those would be a side note. Turns out it was the romance that took second stage. Anna’s long time boyfriend just asked or should I say presented herContinue reading “the Heart Principle by Helen Hoang @HHoangWrites @Dreamscapeaudio @librofm #contemporary #romance #fiction #bookreview #bookblogger”
We Are the Brennans by Tracey Lange @tracey_lange @CeladonBooks #fiction #contemporaryfiction #literaryfiction #bookbloggers #bookcommunity
Susanne’s Review: Guilt, Secrets, Trials & Tribulations. Life in an Irish Catholic Family. Five years ago, Sunday Brennan fled her family, friends, and her significant other Kale, in New York and moved to Los Angeles. She has been running ever since.

The Layover by Lacie Waldon @LacieWaldon #librarybook #audio #romcom #fiction
Susanne’s Review: Let’s hear it for this PG-rated Rom-Com! The Layover by Lacie Waldon comes highly recommended by my friend Jayme. Based on her review, I requested the audio from my library and decided to give it a go. Luckily for me, it was a winner. Ava Green is a flight attendant who is preparingContinue reading “The Layover by Lacie Waldon @LacieWaldon #librarybook #audio #romcom #fiction”
