Reader Question – The book about the arranged marriage where he treats her badly at first…

By 3 Comments

Kimia is desperately needing our help! We have an entire category for this trope (so much love for that “relationship” struggle), so maybe it’s already in there, but if you know which one she’s looking for, let me know. 🙂

She asks:

Hi,

I’m looking for a romance book where our virgin heroin is being forced by her mother into an arranged marriage where the Hero mistreats her really badly at first.

But then he realises his error and try to make her come out of her shell.

Please let me know if someone knows this book. It has been eating me alive!😁 read more

Reader Question – The book about the heroine that adopted a dog because he looked like the Hero that left her…

By Leave a Comment

Alžběta needs our book help! Awwww! This one sounds sweet and kind of sad. Also I love dogs in books. 😉 In fact, the one I just read and reviewed had a dog (and he was too funny).

She asks:

Hello,

I have trouble to find a book

The only thing I remember is that the heroine bought/adopted a dog because he was quite similar (black, blue eyes) to the hero (maybe the dog’s name was beast – I am not sure) and she adopted him after the hero left her.

Have a nice day,

Thank you for any tip! read more

Book Review – Beautiful Savage by Lisa Sorbe

By 7 Comments

5 HUGE STARS for this one!!! The writing is incredible and the story flowed perfectly. I one-clicked it a year ago ’cause of the crazy blurb jolt it gave me, and lost it in my “sea of books” until the author emailed me last week. And I AM SO THANKFUL. I was wholeheartedly entertained and appalled, and swooning throughout.

It kept me hooked from the very start, sucked me in, and spit me right back out when I hit the end of the book. And WHAT AN ENDING IT WAS!! HOLY MOLY. The heroine (or should I say villain? <— Yes… for sure that), was intense, devious, conniving, snarky, funny… but also so vulnerable at times, it HURT. read more

A little over a year ago, this book gave me a serious blurb jolt & I one-clicked it SO HARD!

By 2 Comments

Beautiful Savage <— This Friday’s newsletter sponsor is extra fun for me, because this is a book I one-clicked SO HARD on one of my “Friday Finds” posts a year ago (not ever having heard of the author – just on the blurb alone). Thank you Nancy for pointing it out to us!! Oh yes, this book is RIGHT UP my alley.

So, like I often do, I one-clicked it because it absolutely HAD to be mine, but I didn’t get to it right away. And in my eBook hoarding, it was pushed further down until I couldn’t see it anymore, and completely forgot about it. Though never fully forgetting that haunting synopsis. read more
