Whisper by Cambria Hebert

 Welcome back to Westbrook, where the swimmers are Elite & the suspense keeps them on their toes! 

I love this series so very much! The fact that - like Cambria's Misfits series - the couples are both MF & MM makes me happy. The way the team is written, the way the couples and friendships are written - it all just ... makes me happy!!

😁

My Review:

Oh, this Elite family! Swoon! Sometimes the least important thing is DNA when it comes to families. Elite proves that time & again.

I love the way Prism (aka Matthew, Matt, Matty, baby, princess...) is written. The things he shares and the way he shares them make me want to tacklehug him. Arsen is so very perfect for our air pod swimmer, too. He's the perfect blend of confident & vulnerable. He provides quality comfort!

This story has all the banter & zaniness we love, especially in the group text arena. 😄 Arsen fits right into those chats, with his laid-back replies. And of course there are emojis... 🍿🥞👽👊

We get quite a lot of 🌶🔥🌶🔥 with Matthew & Arsen, balanced with snuggles. Coach & the team's support of Prism as he comes out & shares more about himself is all kinds of 🩷🩷🩷. The representation of anxiety & Prism's brain, the acceptance & support, the LOVE is beautiful.

And the trauma lattes get a workout! Yup, suspense & drama going on up in here, too.

Excellent, enjoyable story that made me fall even more in love with Elite, the bros, and this series as a whole.

😍😍😍

Dr Single Dad by Louise Bay

 I'd not read this author before, I don't think. But when the opportunity arose to read this story, I jumped at it because the blurb pulled me right in! 

I was not disappointed. 

This story delivers!

My Review:

Dax & Eira have quite a fun story!

I didn't really like Dax's attitude in the beginning. He's not a jerk or anything, just very self-involved. He comes from a big, gregarious family, and he loves them & knows he's loved, but he doesn't really make an effort to get to KNOW them.

And then he finds out he's a dad. And his self-involvement goes up a notch for a bit. He thinks of Guinevere as something to mark on his checklist. He seriously needs a kick in the pants!

Happily, that kick comes knocking on his door in the form of Eira. She's bright & caring & full of life - even when life has tried to drag her down, her heart remains full of love & caring.

I adore the way they end up together, the bonds they each have with their families. And I LOVE how Eira gently nudges & guides Dax into growth. He bonds with Guinevere, his eyes are opened to different perspectives & he gets to really bond with his family. His heart opens up & allows feelings for Eira in, too.

Such a sweet (with 🔥🌶🔥🌶) story!

Have you read this series?

This one read really great as a stand alone, but I definitely think the other stories would be fun, too. The brothers are all fun in this one! 😁

Let me know what ya think!

The Fool by Lani Lynn Vale

 Ahhh!

I can't believe we're at the end of this series. It's been such an amazing ride, and I love this family! They all have to go through some tough things throughout the series, but the support & love they give each other while welcoming new family members is heartwarming. 

My Review 

This series is one of my favorites from this author, & Keene and Ande's story is the perfect wrap up. We get time with all his sisters, to catch up with them, their men, their kids... And we also get to know Ande's family more, which is great since her brothers will be getting their own series... 😉 AND!!! There are some fun cameos...

I love the way Ande & Keene discover connections throughout the story & how they click together right away. They're fun with lots of 🔥🔥🔥, and there's emotional stuff going on that might also necessitate tissues. A perfect balance of all the things!

I enjoyed this story a lot & am so happy this series exists!

😍😍😍

Have you been reading this series? 

I think it would make a good binge read if you want to scope out the whole family at once. It'll read like a great show... 😁

Fearless by C.B. Noy

 Happy Leap Year!

Today I have a new release from a favorite author I stumbled upon last year. 

Her stories are romantic suspense, small town, entertaining reads. And her latest, Fearless, is the conclusion to her Quattro Security series. Loved it!

My Review

Alec & Quin's story starts off giving us the inside look at their 🔥🔥🔥. It takes them a little bit to figure out that wasn't just a one-time thing, but once they're together, they're TOGETHER.

I love Quin's sass & the way Alec pushes her buttons sometimes bc he loves it, too. And Quin doesn't lose that sass when she finally trusts him with all her secrets, but it changes from a protection-mode sass to just Quinny. 😁

I also love getting to go thru part of the pregnancy with these two. Alec's nicknames for the baby are adorable!!

There's suspense & more 🔥, lots of great family & friend bonding, tears - a tough subject is a main part of the story, & it's written beautifully. We also get a preview of the next series & I'm suuuuper excited that this character gets their own HEA!! 💚

Loved this story, and series, lots!!

Killing Booth by Lani Lynn Vale

 Ohhh, guys!

This one is a tear jerker & very emotional.

Don't worry, tho - it still has the classic LLV steam & humor & good vibes. You'll just need more tissues than normal, potentially. 

My Review

Zip & Nash's story is emotional & fiercely about love. There's steam and shenanigans, crazy family stuff... but mostly it's a story about how strong love really needs to be sometimes. It's about strength and vulnerability, family bonds, and how sometimes you have to face your loved one's fears for them when they just can't.

😍😭😍😭

Turn of the Tides by Jessica Prince

 Happy new release!

This is the third book in Jessica's Whitecap series, & it's an enjoyable read!

Very emotional & I was rooting for these two from the beginning. 💙

My Review:

Beau & Presley - my heart broke for them lots. Their story is a second chance, that shouldn't have needed a second chance bc they could've been together all this time. Stupid interference by ... well, you'll just have to read, won't ya? 😉

I adored both Beau & Presley, and I liked the way we got to see what was going on with Beau in the past. I wished there was a little more of them being together after they got together! But that's bc they're written so well, and isn't really a complaint. Lol This story was also coming in hot with the 🔥🔥🔥. They have the chemistry down!

There were a couple scenes I loved lots that I can't say anything about bc spoilers! But I think everyone will be cheering when they see those scenes!

The ending is also done sooo well! And the tease for the next book - oooh!! Intrigued!

😍😍😍

Broken by Layla Frost

 I absolutely love this series!

Styx (book 1) sucked me into this urban fantasy & I fell in love with the whole concept. It's amazing & beautifully written. 

Book 3 is out today, and this isn't a standalone - you definitely need to start with Styx & Stoned so you'll appreciate the banter, relationships, & overall storyline here.

My Review:

First of all, this is not a stand alone. Please read Styx & Stoned first so you can appreciate all the emotion, friendship, banter, battles, & awesomeness of this series.

Now, Lennon & Lilith!!!

This story was super hard for me at some points bc of part of the storyline hitting very close to a personal situation. It's written beautifully & my eyes leaked a lot.

During other parts of the story, the LOL moments were on point! Juno is hilarious, Levi is devil's food delicious, & Nate makes me smile often. Stellan & Denny also get high fives. 😉

I adore the connection between Lennon & Lilith. From their first first meeting to their adult meet cute, the sparks are delightful! I enjoyed the way they communicate & how Lilith leans on him but also stands up to him. And Lennon has this shell with everyone else that was fun to watch melt as he & Lilith get closer!

(Sidebar: could we get more Finn & Hannah?)

The 🔥🔥🔥, humor, heart, & hope in this story are all perfectly woven together, & omh the overall storyline in the series & hint at the final book are STELLAR! Absolutely love this series so much!

😍😍😍😍😍
