Month: February 2020

Remember back in January when I said I was behind.  Apparently, that hasn’t changed!  But, I stumbled upon a new to me author!  Introducing…. Meghan Quinn!

Meghan has a unique style of writing.  She is witty and her female characters are walked all over like in so many others in romancelandia.  My first read by Meghan was Co-wrecker.  I thought with that name… what can go wrong?  

Co-wrecker is about two young adults who want to be friends while working together.  But, can they stay just coworkers?  PSSH No!!  What kind of romance book would that be?  It’s fun.  It has a little bit of angst.  Will they get together?  Will they stay apart?  Will Sadie get back together with her ex?  

If you haven’t picked up this book yet, you should.  Co-wrecker is the first in a four book series.

Another book I have read by her was:  The Virgin Romance Novelist

Hold on to your hats boys and girls.  This book was a laugh a minute. 

Our main girl, Rosie, is a virgin.  She has just graduated from college and landed her first writing job at a cat magazine.  From her sexual encounters to her bosses clothing choices, this book is HILARIOUS.  I had so much fun reading this.  I had only read the first two sentences before I let two of my fellow Sisters know they needed to add this to their TBR pile right away.   

I am devouring all her books now as most of them are available on KU.  As a bonus for me, Megan is going to be one of the attending authors at Apollycon next month.  I cant wait to meet her and let her know how much I have personally enjoyed reading her romance novels.

A Curse So Dark and Lonely by Brigid Kemmerer
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book was an amazing retelling of the classic story Beauty and the Beast. I haven’t always been a huge fan of taking the classics and putting a twist on them. This book stopped me in my tracks.

The characters were down right fantastic! Prince Rhen, Harper and Grey are everything I want in my characters. Dark, mystical, magical, a little flawed, and down right badass. Rhen is ready for the season to end and his torment to be over. When Harper is dragged, literally, into his Emberfall it’s amazing to see his transformation. I was a HUGE fan of Grey. I was rooting for him the entire book. He’s so loyal and trusting! I want to snatch him up and hug him tightly.

Something else that also made me happy was how Brigid portrayed the actual curse bestowed upon the beast. It would have to be very exhausting to live for so many seasons. I probably would have lost my mind if I was Rhen or Grey. Then again, it seems as if they were already on the edge, ready to jump. The cruse was literally what made me fly through pages and stay up past my bedtime. I loved every second of it.

If you’re a fan of YA read this book! It’s a truly amazing read!! It deserves all the stars from me! Cannot wait to read the next installment A Heart So Fierce and Broken. Until then, I’ll be dreaming of Grey!! ❤

Echoes Between Us by Katie McGarry

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Really enjoyed this YA Romance book! The characters were excellent. I love that Veronica and Sawyer aren’t perfectly perfect. They each are experiencing something that separates them from their friends. In turn, it helps to draw them together. It did have a touch of paranormal, which I absolutely loved!

The book is told from dual perspectives and gives an insight on each characters true feelings. The story really flowed and was easy to follow. All in all the writing style was very well written. I loved that Katie used a journal from a real life person who was suffering from TB in the early 1900’s. That was easily one of my favorite parts of the book. Then to learn that Evelyn was a real person, MIND BLOWN!

I highly recommend this one if you’re looking for something lite and fun to read!
