Monica Murphy – The Rules Series Reading Order

By Leave a Comment

Monica Murphy says those that enjoyed “One Week Girlfriend” will enjoy this series, and book #4 is coming out soon. Plus I love the sound of that blurb! PLUS! Book #1 starts off with the H and h HATING each other. Oooooh. Sounds like fun!

About book #1:

When your boyfriend bets YOU in a poker game, you better know when to run…

Bad enough Jade Frost’s boyfriend drags her to an illegal gambling house. Even worse that he actually threw her into the betting pot during an intense round of poker…and lost. Talk about the perfect excuse for Jade to make him her ex-boyfriend. read more

Friday Finds! Today’s book-bargains and five-star reader recommendations!

By 277 Comments

Happy Friday everyone!! I’m finishing up a book today (super-romance and absolutely made for us!!) and will be reviewing shortly, and then I think… maybe time to choose an adrenaline-pumper. I want a fun/scaryish reading weekend. Something dark. Or that has a mind-blowing, super-clever twist that I didn’t see coming. I have a few on my list, but if you have a recommendation for me, I’m all ears!

I’m also thinking something poignant and emotional and life-changing (always unputtdownable and unforgettable), but… *sigh* my wonderful mommy has left me this morning, and headed back to Canada. I think I’m already feeling too melancholy for that. It’s bittersweet, you know? Best time ever, but saying goodbye is the worst. Knowing it’s coming, each day, one day closer and reminding myself… don’t think about it. Just live in the moment. Enjoy each and every moment. read more

Kristen Callihan – VIP Series Reading Order

Sexy rock star series! P.S. BOOK #4 JUST WENT LIVE, and so many LOVED book #1 (me too!).

Lisa: …read Idol. I loved it….perfecto pure rock star fantasy. Some really sweet moments, a tinsy tad of angsty moments and some wonderful music/lyric references. Great CR read. I five starred it….just what I was in the mood for. Nothing to taxing.

Maryse: I just REALLY loved when she finally realized who he was. I loved the honesty in her reaction… how truly star struck she was and how hurt he was that she was changing because of it… I really like their friendship, and how it wasn’t immediate sex and such. Instead, they get on each other’s nerves, and I found that endearing. read more

Anjelica is looking for a book, and I think I can answer this one!!! But I figured I’d post it ’cause this series sounds awesome and the premise definitely gave me a blurb jolt!!

She asks:

“I’m looking for book where a woman with financial struggles starts receiving mysterious payments from an unknown stranger. Eventually, all of her debts are paid down, but this is where things get interesting. With her debts paid, the mystery man then comes to her door step to take her…own her.” read more

Jennifer needs our help! I’m having some difficulties because, while she thinks it’s a book I’ve recently reviewed, the details she mentions do not ring a bell for me OTHER than I do remember highlighting this synopsis not too long ago. A new release or bargain find that I highlighted recently? Maybe it was another reader question, so I’m going to dig into my blog and see what I can find in past posts.

But in case someone here might know which one she’s looking for… read more
