I was excited for the chance to read S.E. Clancy’s novella, Mercy, because Ruth is one of my favorite books of the Bible. I’ve always admired Ruth’s devotion to her mother-in-law and was anxious to see what a contemporary retelling of this story might look like. Mercy took me back to my days of waiting…

Maybe Maby – Review
Willow Aster’s Maybe Maby has been on my to-read list for a long, long time. I finally felt the need to dive into this story and I can’t say how glad I am that I did! I didn’t know much about this story going into it. Only the line, “I’m having a meltdown” and that…
The Rules of Burken – Review + Blog Tour
Debut author, Traci Finlay, took me on a crazy and nostalgic ride with her release, The Rules of Burken. Strangely enough, this book is set 10 miles from where I grew up for the first few years of my life. Cadillac, Michigan was a place my family visited nearly every weekend, my brother was born…
Eleanor & Grey – Review
No matter how swamped I become in my reading and reviewing schedule, I will forever continue to make time for Brittainy C. Cherry’s books, even if I have to stay up all night to read. She writes one emotional hit after the next, each one better than the last. Right now I can’t possibly imagine…
Make Me Bad – Cover Reveal
R.S. Grey’s next romantic comedy, MAKE ME BAD, releases March 7th! Check out the cover and find out more about MAKE ME BAD below! About MAKE ME BAD (available March 7th) I was issued a warning: stay away from Ben Rosenberg. As Clifton Cove’s resident “king”, he thinks he’s entitled to anyone and anything….
Violet Ugly – Review
“Sometimes, we live through traumas to show others how to do it. I believe we each have a walk of life, and sometimes, human decisions are made that affect us. But it’s how we come out of it, hopefully as better people.” J. Lynn Bailey, yet again, made me fall in love, not only with…
Loving Mr. Daniels – Review
I talked about taking advantage of my Kindle Unlimited Trial in my November TBR post and I’ve started my mission of checking off as many books as possible during the trial period. I decided to kick off my Indie reading binge with Loving Mr. Daniels by Brittainy C. Cherry. This book has been sitting on my…
364 Days a Year – Review
Many thanks to Sarah Riad for the chance to read this novel early! 364 Days a Year is one of my favorite kinds of books to read. It offered a unique storyline, well-done characters, and was a young-adult novel I would feel excited to have my daughter read someday. The blurb caught my attention and…
Arrogant Devil – Review
R.S. Grey has done it again! I don’t know what I can say about her books that I haven’t already said about the last seven books I’ve reviewed of hers. The bottom line is, I haven’t met an R.S. Grey book I didn’t like, with most books boasting a strong five-star rating on Goodreads from…
The Beau & The Belle – Review
I don’t know how R.S. Grey manages to write hit after hit. She’s has nailed her niche and I doubt she could write a bad book. Her stories never fail to make me laugh out loud, read through the entire day or night, and fall in love along with her characters. While I’m reading, I…
Wall of Crosses – Review
Baj Goodson’s debut novella, Wall of Crosses, releases today and it’s bound to leave you begging for more. If the gorgeous cover doesn’t get your attention, this story will grab you from the very first word, raising questions and slowly revealing secrets about a dysfunctional family until the final page. Just when one might think there…
More of You – Review
With twenty books under her belt, it’s a little surprising More of You was my first A.L. Jackson read. Though I have many of her books waiting on my Kindle, apparently receiving the paperback of this book was the push I needed to make time for this author. I really appreciated the chance to participate in the…
Disgrace – Review
Brittainy C. Cherry is one of my go-to authors for a reason. I adore her storytelling and the emotion she pours into her books. I never fail to feel everything her characters experience, as if I’m living it with them. After reading the first page, I knew this would be another novel to rip my…
The Sweet Gum Tree – Review
Thank you so much to Talon from Under the Cover blog for helping me break the horrendous book slump I was in. At the time, I couldn’t make up my mind on what to read and nothing sounded appealing after several two-star books and a couple DNFs. I posed the question of what to read next to…
Pieces of Eight – Review
I’ve taken days to write this review because I simply don’t know what to say about this book. We’re not even halfway through the year yet, and I’ve already read so many amazing novels. I honestly am scared about making a list of favorites at the end of the year! Whitney Barbetti’s Mad Love Duet is without…
Waterfall Effect – Review
I was lucky enough to meet my birthday buddy, K.K. Allen, in February at Holidays with the Belles in Dallas. At the time I still hadn’t read any of K.K’s books yet, despite her sitting on my TBR list for over two years (sorry!). After meeting and LOVING her, I figured it was time to…
Six Feet Under – Review
Oh, my heart. I’m not even halfway through this book at the moment of writing this, but I had to stop and quickly jot down thoughts before I’ve forgotten them. This book explains the substance of our feelings as humans. The main thing all of us want is to be loved unconditionally, to know no…
Kiss Me Like You Mean It – Review
Everything about this book makes me excited. The cover, the story, the setting(s) – J.R. Rogue knocked it out of the park with her third novel. This is not your typical love story. It’s raw, revealing, and you may find your heart snagging on some of the shattered dreams inside. Nevertheless, the best books are…
Weightless – Review
I have had Weightless on my Kindle for over a year, and on my TBR even longer. Everyone raves about Kandi Steiner’s books in the Romance world, and I knew it was time to get on board, especially after meeting her in person at Holidays with the Belles. Kandi was ridiculously awesome and gracious! After enjoying Weightless as much as…
