*`Release Blitz & Review: Until I Remember by Karla Sorensen`*

 Until I Remember by Karla Sorensen is now live!

She has no memory of choosing him. Her heart, apparently, didn’t get the memo.

I wake up in a hospital with a year of my life missing—and Grant Hastings at my bedside. I remember him, all right. He’s wealthy. Arrogant. British. And my late brother’s best friend. The last man I’d ever want to marry.

Except apparently I did.

Title: Wild Card

Series: Rose Hill #4

Author: Elsie Silver

REVIEW:

4.5 Stars

I can't believe this is the last book in the series. I've enjoyed it so much. This last book was such a joy to read. I loved that we got to know Clyde. He is so much more than his crazy reputation. It was so much fun seeing him play matchmaker. There is such a great sense of humor in this one. This is an age gap romance. Things get messy when it comes to Gwen and Bash. Life really felt like throw curve balls at them. Gwen has such a sunshine personality and Bash is one grumpy dude. M heart goes out to Bash though because life hasn't been the kindest to him. Then he thinks he can have happiness then it wants to rip it away again. Man a few parts had me on the edge of my seat because some serious events happen that I really hated for this town to have to go through. A great book to end this series on! The epilogue was perfect. 

BLURB:

Sebastian Rousseau is a grumpy, hot as hell fire pilot who is too damn good with his hands.

It’s the perfect combination. But unfortunately for me, he’s also my ex-boyfriend’s dad.

A chance meeting brought us together and a missed connection has kept us apart.

One year later, a stroke of fate has us living under the same roof—which makes everything between us downright messy.

Because even after all this time, he’s still the man I think about when I fall asleep. The one I can’t get over no matter how hard I try.

He’s working on mending a fragile relationship with his son and we both know acting on these urges would be the ultimate betrayal.

But I see the heat in his eyes. That look of need that never fails to send a shiver down my spine.

The mutual longing is borderline unbearable and the simmering heat between us is downright palpable.

We both know there are rules when it comes to situations like this.

But then again…following the rules never has been my strong suit.

Title: Sweet as Puck
Series: San Diego Seals Hockey #1
Author: Ann Grech

REVIEW:
4 Stars
This is the first book in the series. I forgot how much I enjoy a why choose romance. This is a MMF romance with a curvy girl, her best friend's father, and a delicious hockey player. My heart goes out to all three characters because they each are struggling so what they find with one another is something really beautiful. It's a very steamy romance, but you can see the true connection between them as well. Everything that Monroe has lost he so deserves all the happiness. I liked that we get all the characters points of view through out the book. For me at least it leads to more of connection to the characters as the reader. It's not easy road for these three. Monroe is learning more about himself through out this book in a few ways when he thought that part of himself was going to stay dormant indefinitely. I appreciated Cara and Zali's friendship. Poor Alec faces a lot with his team in this one so Gauthier and Hewitt stood out to me when they show support for Alec. My romantic heart happy sighed with how this one ended. 

BLURB:
Two men who need a second chance. Could she be the sunshine who lights their dark days?

I’ve fallen for my best friend’s father. He’s a sexy silver fox who needs a second chance at love. Impossible to stay away from, right? And when he praises me in that deep voice, I melt. I want him to be my first.

I wasn’t expecting Alec. He’s the gorgeous, tattooed, grumpy bad boy of the NHL. Tensions are running high with his team. His reputation and career are hanging by a thread. He needs to focus on hockey. I need to stay away. But with chemistry as electric as ours, it’s impossible.

I shouldn’t fall for either man, never mind both. But I can’t resist them. And I think they’re falling for each other too.

If only we weren’t doomed from the start.

Sweet as Puck is a steamy hockey bi-awakening, age gap, why choose MMF romance. It features a curvy girl who’s never been kissed, a silver fox who falls first, and a disgraced hockey star seeking redemption.

This book deals with past loss of loved ones and cheating (not the main characters).

*`Review: Key Change by Cara Dion`*

Title: Key Change
Series: Hotel Bellwether #2
Author: Cara Dion

REVIEW:
4.5 Stars
The second book in the Hotel Bellwether series. I'm a sucker for a single dad/nanny romance, but add in it's an age gap grumpy/sunshine yes, please! The banter between Jo and Derek was one of my favorite parts. Derek's daughter was just delightful. I loved the scenes with her and Jo on their ghost hunting mission. This was a fast read, but it packed a punch. After reading this you bet I'm reading this author's back list. I was hooked from the beginning of this book until the end. Even the secondary characters had me so I know she has gained a new reader. This book gave me everything I could have wanted. Derek's big move just perfect. I recommend this one!

BLURB:
Never mix business with pleasure… especially when you’re banging the boss.

Jo Baker is the best damn bartender / model / nanny around, and she knows it. Too bad she still can’t pay her rent—until the silver fox at the end of the bar offers her a short-term nannying gig and a one-night stand worthy of a girls’ night debrief.

Three days at a luxury resort on the California coast watching Derek’s seven-year-old daughter? No problem. Not climbing back into bed with the hot single dad? Impossible.

Derek Owens needs to help a washed-up boy band launch their comeback, manage one last blockbuster tour, and then he can settle down and be the father his daughter deserves. But spending time with the sassy bartender-turned-nanny is the farthest thing imaginable from “settling down.”

So Derek does what he does best: he takes control. And that includes one rule he cannot break if he and his daughter have any chance of not leaving CA heartbroken—do not fall for the nanny.

Key Change is a spicy, single dad / nanny, vacation romance between a grumpy music executive and the woman who loves to push his buttons. This standalone in the Hotel Bellwether series has a guaranteed happily-ever-after.

*`Review: The Love Hypothesis by Ali Hazelwood`*

The Love Hypothesis
Ali Hazelwood

REVIEW:
 4 Stars
I love that this book has women in STEM. I loved Olive's friends Anh and Malcolm. Olive has that little bit of social awkwardness that sometimes comes with people with a beautiful smart mind. This is a fake relationship trope between a professor and a PhD student, but not her professor. When I first started this book I was a little iffy, but then I was quickly drawn into the story. Now I'm a reader that usually likes dual points of view, but Ali Hazelwood did such a good job that  it didn't dawn on me until I read the bonus chapter that the book was only from Olive's perspective. I got enough cues and descriptions from Olive that I could tell what was going on in Adam's head. Also his good friend and fellow professor Holden gave enough info to help that out as well. I had a little inkling in my gut where this was going to go and as I say I should always listen to my gut. I loved the side Olive brings out in Adam. He feels lighter and more okay just being and not preforming. The banter between Olive and Adam was one of my favorite parts of the book. That always had me chuckling. I will admit Holden was a favorite character of mine. I loved his personality so much. A great secondary character for sure. Overall I enjoyed this book and glad I gave it a chance when I found out it's becoming a movie. 

BLURB:
As a third-year Ph.D. candidate, Olive Smith doesn't believe in lasting romantic relationships--but her best friend does, and that's what got her into this situation. Convincing Anh that Olive is dating and well on her way to a happily ever after was always going to take more than hand-wavy Jedi mind tricks: Scientists require proof. So, like any self-respecting biologist, Olive panics and kisses the first man she sees.

That man is none other than Adam Carlsen, a young hotshot professor--and well-known ass. Which is why Olive is positively floored when Stanford's reigning lab tyrant agrees to keep her charade a secret and be her fake boyfriend. But when a big science conference goes haywire, putting Olive's career on the Bunsen burner, Adam surprises her again with his unyielding support and even more unyielding...six-pack abs.

Suddenly their little experiment feels dangerously close to combustion. And Olive discovers that the only thing more complicated than a hypothesis on love is putting her own heart under the microscope.

*`Review: The Royal Situation by Lyra Parish

 Title: The Royal Situation
Series: Billionaire Situation #7
Author: Lyra Parish

REVIEW:
5 stars
Lyra saved the best for last. I'm one that doesn't always go for the royal romances, but when one of your favorite authors writes one you read it. This is now my new favorite in the series. I literally couldn't put this one down and would get mad when life got in the way of my reading. I loved Addison and Louis. The deep connection between them is what fairytales are made of. These two had me at their chess playing because that game has a deep meaningful connection to Louis with his grandmother. The storm these two face would knock anyone down, but these two are left standing tall and ready to conquer anything. The king (Louis' dad) was one of my favorite characters in this book. Now my favorite is Addison. She is impressive and she doesn't cower to anyone. Louis is going to need someone like her at his side to rule. I loved all the little hidden meanings on things. The one big take away for me after reading this is Addison and Louis are connected on a soul deep level. This love story is truly beautiful and why people would fight dragons in fairytales. I can't recommend this one enough. 

BLURB:
While my parents search for my future wife, a pretty painter arrives at the palace and ruins everything in the best possible way…

I'm the crown prince and tabloid regular who couldn't find a bride by thirty-five so now my fate is being decided for me. As the palace fills with eligible princesses, Addison Cross shows up to compete for the esteemed royal artist position. I never thought I'd see her again.

There are too many reasons why she needs to leave. Her being my friend's little sister is close to the top. Plus, I'll be engaged any day now with a wedding and child not far behind. The timing is terrible and we're both off-limits. It's trouble in the making, but that doesn't stop us.

We break every rule to be together. We sneak out at midnight, steal moments in corridors, and choose each other in secret as everyone around me plans a marriage I don't want. Now I'm hiding a forbidden affair from those who control my future while falling for the one woman I can never have.

The Royal Situation is a forbidden, secret-romance, royal rom-com with a happily ever after! It can be read as a stand-alone, but for the full Billionaire Situation Series experience, please start with The Wife Situation. Included: spicy scenes and a charming disaster prince who'd burn down a kingdom just to keep her.
