Thank you to Jacquelyn Middleton and Netgalley for providing ARC for review! After reading (and loving) Jacquelyn Middleton’s London Belongs to Me during the summer, I couldn’t wait to read the sequel, London, Can You Wait?. I’m a huge fan of all things London and knew I would love both books. To my immense excitement, Jacquelyn Middleton allowed me my first…

Bad Romance – Review
You know when you finish a book and you immediately want to tell everyone you have ever known to read it? Yeah? That JUST happened to me. First, I can’t stop singing Lady Gaga’s, “Rah rah ah-ah-ah! Ro mah ro-mah-mah” and I’m so happy Heather Demetrios paid homage to Mother Monster with her book. The…
The Foxe & the Hound – Review
When my fellow Texan, R.S. Grey, releases a new book, I am always eager to read it. Her books always happen to come out at a great time for me, though when is there a bad time to read a book by her? I know her stories will make me laugh because they are always…
The Queen and the Cure – Review
Was Amy speaking of herself with this quote? Seriously, the woman’s gift of writing is a benefit for mankind. Every time I read one of her books I am in complete awe of her writing abilities. She crafts such in-depth stories and some of the most romantic scenes I have ever read. To be honest,…
The Gravity of Us – Review
Let me start by saying, whatever I write about this book will not be able to do it justice. Last year I was gifted a copy of The Air He Breathes by a lovely person in Colleen Hoover’s CoHorts. I subsequently devoured the novel, along with all of the other books in Brittainy C. Cherry’s Elements Series….
Drums of Autumn – Review
I have been reading the Outlander series since May of last year (2016), spacing the books out as I have had time to devote to the tale. Drums of Autumn is without a doubt my favorite of the Outlander series, thus far. I know a lot of people complain about how long these books are…
Lost in Scotland – Review
Lost in Scotland was my first book by author, Hilaria Alexander. It is a delicious and fun story about, Sam, a makeup artist from Los Angeles. After Sam catches her boyfriend cheating with her friend and producer of the show she works for, she concocts an elaborate plan for revenge. Her plan doesn’t seem to have the effect…
From Sand and Ash – Review
Amy Harmon is unstoppable! Yet again, I am blown away by her talents for storytelling. I love WWII-era Historical Fiction to begin with, so I already knew Amy Harmon + the 1940s would = complete magic. From Sand and Ash begins in the 1930s with young Eva and Angelo. Angelo is forced by his father to…
The Silent Waters – Review
I can’t get this book out of my head. I keep reflecting on the characters, the emotion of the storyline, and the growth the characters experienced throughout the novel. I loved “aging” with the characters. This is something I wish more authors would incorporate in their novels, by allowing characters and readers to come full…
In This Life – Review
“You are my madness, my sanity, my darkness, and my light. I will never know one without the other. I don’t want to live a life if it isn’t a life with you.” I was lucky enough to discover Christine Brae’s In This Life through Tarryn Fisher’s Facebook group at the beginning of this year. Without Tarryn’s…
Beautiful Disaster – Review
I’m in numerous book groups on Facebook, so I always see Jamie McGuire’s books being raved about. I’ve had this book on my TBR for quite a while and finally was able to check in out with the Overdrive App from my local library. Be sure to check out Overdrive, by the way, if you…
A Lover’s Lament – Review
“That’s the great thing about love … it finds you. And when it’s true love, it doesn’t go away, and you just know. You don’t have to wonder or guess, because it just … is.” As the first book for my 2016 Indie Readathon hosted by Angie’s Dreamy Reads, Words with Sarah, and Booklovers for Life, I decided…
Collared – Review
I’ll admit to being a judgmental book reader. I totally judge a book by its cover, title, author, and pretty much any other way you can imagine. I was intrigued by the cover of this book; it is beautiful, but I could not figure out why a book would be titled Collared. If you’re apprehensive…
London Belongs to Me – Review
As an Anglophile, I knew I had to read London Belongs to Me as soon as I saw Colleen Hoover post a giveaway for this title on Instagram. I love everything about England and was in need of a cheerful bit of Chick-Lit to read after the heavy books I’ve been hitting lately. Jacquelyn Middleton hit the ball…
Somebody Else’s Sky & Move the Stars – Review
Somebody Else’s Sky NOTE: If you’ve yet to read Something in the Way by Jessica Hawkins, you may want to skip reading this review and start reading this epic love story. I’m going to do things a bit differently and review the final two books in the Something in the Way series in one post. I couldn’t be bothered…
Ten Below Zero – Review
I don’t have the slightest idea where to start with this book. It’s one of the greats that stole my words and left me with the most beautiful mess of emotions. When I pick up a novel, I read for experience, understanding, and emotion. Occasionally, I read to escape or venture to a different location. Ten…
Something in the Way – Review
I believe certain books come to us at the very time we need them in life. Sometimes we’re led to them, and it’s like the world is shouting at us “Stop everything you’re doing and read this book now!” Something in the Way was one of those books for me. First, my lovely friend, Kacy from Fettered Matriarch,…
Goodnight From London – Review
As book lovers, I think we can all agree not all 400 pages in every book we read are created equally. Sometimes I can fly through 400 pages in a day and other times it may take me a couple of weeks. Unfortunately, Goodnight from London was one of the latter. I felt as if I was…
Maybe in Another Life – Review
Do you know what direction your life is going? Do you feel as if you have a choice? Coincidentally, many of the books I’ve been picking up lately have featured a heroine in her late twenties still trying to get her life together. Is God trying to tell me something? Despite feeling this way myself…
Wish You Were Here – Review
I have been struggling to formulate my thoughts for this review after finishing it almost two weeks ago! Usually, I try to write my reviews as quickly as possible, but I have the strongest writer’s block for this book! This is a novel I went into completely blind. I didn’t know much about the story,…
