Landin' in Trouble

 Landin' in Trouble Creekville Kisses Too Written by: Brittany Larsen This book was nothing like I expected. While the cover lends to the idea of a light-hearted romcom it had a lot more depth and went through a lot of character progression and emotional issues. I hated Landon to start with. He was so oblivious but Brittany Larsen was able to have his character progress realistically in a way that helped him become a guy who was worthy of Brynn Foster. I loved how Brittany Larsen was able to showcase eating disorders in Brynn. It can be such a delicate topic and Brittany takes it and goes raw- and pulls the real difficulty that a person can have dealing with them. That a person is constantly in recovery and never truly healed while still being able to become a better person. Mixed in with that all was some light-hearted fun romantic moments. Overall was good read with some depth. 

The Bad Boy Theory

 The Bad Boy Theory Diamond Cove Romantic Comedy Series Written by: Elodia Strain Elodia Strain kept me guessing in this new Diamond Cove Romantic Comedy. With a fun and quirky heroine who meets her match with two very different potential beaus- I became invested in rooting for my favorite. Essie Sanchez is such a unique and lovable character. The way she interacts with those around her and the secret seven just make this story sing. Those secret seven are hilarious and it is fun to see some conflict between those that live in the retirement community. They are a fun way to unite all of the books in this series. I can't wait to see what comes next.

The Bachelor and the Bride

 The Bachelor and the Bride The Dread Penny Society Book 4 Written by: Sarah M. Eden Oh my goodness gracious! If you haven't had the chance to read any of the Dread Penny Society books, I suggest you start now because this one tops them all. There are so many spoilers and reveals that I can't share because it would ruin it for you but man this one is soo good. Sarah Eden has me sitting on the edge of my seat wanting to read faster but at the same time wanting it go by slow so I can savor it better. Dr. Barnabus Milligan is such a good-hearted guy- I mean all of the Dread Penny Society men are and Gemma is such a plucky, happy girl that you want them to figure things out to find their happily ever after. But there is soo much in their way- danger both of the heart and a physical nature. I can't say anymore otherwise I worry I will spoil it. I recommend making sure you have the time to read it all because I guarantee you won't want to set it down!

Sinister Secrets

  Sinister Secrets Three Suspense Novellas Written by: Traci Hunter Abramson, Clair M. Poulson, and Paige Edwards While these three authors are so unique in writing style- they are all fantastic storytellers. Each story is different but all have suspense that starts right from the beginning and drew me in. From Traci Abramson's with a teenage girl running for her life to Paige Edwards's where there is FBI and DEA all involved. Each of these authors make it possible for you to jump into the story and see a little snapshot into the lives of these characters. The intrigue, adventure, and love-familial or romantic-makes this set of stories sing.
