 She's all that meets gossip girl

Beauty and the Nerd

This book was predictable but beautifully executed. It's the first book in a series, however, can be read as a standalone with a happy ever after.

Rimmel is roped into tutoring the star of the football team, Romeo. He's everything you'd expect good looking, arrogant, popular and a total player. He everything she's not and Football is his life. Rimmel just wants to keep her head down and her scholarship.
Romeo wants to gain membership to the exclusive frat house on campus which he hopes can boost his career chances. They want him to win over the nerd. The problem is the more he gets to know her the more the things he thought he wanted seem trivial.

5 stars out of 5.

Unexpectedly Hers

Unexpectedly Hers (Sterling Canyon #3) 

Jamie Beck  

Book Review: ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

Emma shared a night of passion years ago, with a man story books are made out of. In fact, she is about to publish that very book under a pen name. In her everyday life, Emma helps run the family's bed n breakfast. She is nothing like the character in her book. She is considered a wallflower.
Her mum has planned a trip away leaving Emma in charge of the B & B. The man of her dreams ends up being her guest, but he comes with his own baggage. A film crew are doing a story about his career come back. He is a professional skier, but things have changed. He's now the player she once knew.

4 stars out of 5. This book felt a little different to the other books by this author, however, is worth the read.

The Sweetest Kiss

The Sweetest Kiss (Kissed by the Bay #4)

Susan Hatler

Book Review: ♥ ♥ ♥

This book can be read as a standalone. However, I think I would have enjoyed it more if I had read about the other characters.

Megan and Brian have been friends for years. Megan has always had a thing for him but didn't think she stood a chance. She wants to be a professional artist and enters a competition to win her dream trip. Brian ends up on a rival team. This book is only a short story, so I don't want to give any more away, but it's a romance novel about getting what you always wanted.

3 stars out of 5. I would have liked this book to be longer and maybe the romance blossom over time. I felt like I'd already missed the starting point.

I received this book via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

Coming Up for Air

Coming Up for Air (Hundred Oaks)

Book Review: ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

I was so excited to gain an ARC of this book, and it didn't disappoint. I couldn't put it down.

Maggie's life revolves around swim. Eat, sleep, swim and swim some more. She wants to be one of the best, and that means practice, practice and more practice. She hasn't had time to enjoy the normal high school experience. She decides she needs help from her best friend, so Maggie isn't a complete novice by the time she goes to college. Her best friend is also a swimming champion and doesn't have time for a girlfriend, but he likes to hook up. She gets him to give her a few pointers, but the lines become blurred. Her best friend becomes more, and they become unstable. Can they go back? Is there even a forward solution?

This book has a lot of swimming in it obviously and shows the dedication needed.

I really enjoyed this book. Highly recommended. Thanks, NetGalley. 5 stars out of 5. One to add to the must read pile.

A Great Catch

A Great Catch: Arranged Marriage Romance

Rocklyn Ryder  

Book Review: ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

This is my favourite book so far by Rocklyn Ryder. I love the arranged marriage series. They are all standalone stories. I couldn't put this one down.

Olivia is a sweet girl looking for the perfect gentleman. She likes a clean shaven man with manners and elegance. What Olivia likes might not be what's right for her. She signs up to the Raven dating service in the hope of finding a great catch.

Redd is ready to settle down. He just needs to find that special someone. He enlists his ex-girlfriend who has the kind of relationship he wants and joins the arranged marriage club. What he gets is more than he could ever have hoped for and Olivia is going to be all his, completely.

5 stars plus, loved it. Ryder has done it again and created another perfect couple. I just can't get enough.

Sunset Reads: Damian & Layla

Sunset Reads: Damian & Layla (Sunset Reads #2) 

D.C. Triana 

Book Review: ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ❣

This is the second book in the sunset read collection. It can be read as a standalone. However, both are available for kindle unlimited readers, and I'd recommend you start with book one as the characters are in this one too.

Layla and Damian had a magical moment together, but it was over before it began. One year later their paths cross again, and this time its business rather than pleasure. The attraction is hard to deny, but they have a job to get done. Staying professional isn't always easy especially when you have met your match.

Action romance novel that is full of sass. I enjoyed this book 4.5 stars out of 5.

I was recommended this book via the author however I downloaded it via kindle unlimited.
