Monday Early Bird Book Releases – 03-21-2022

By 13 Comments

9:51am UPDATE!!!! Good morning and happy Monday!! It’s time to build today’s early bird list, so keep checking back as I add them on. Let me know if you found something I didn’t.

THREE THINGS:

1.) I detail-pressure-washed my pool area and it looks sooooo good.

2.) Due to the pressure washing, I spent a lot of time in the sun (mind you… under my pool cage – so sort of protected) and it did me so much good! In the low 70’s all weekend and just pure bliss.

3.) I got a ton of stuff done (super-productive weekend), but nothing that I was planning on. 😉 I love when that happens. P.S. I tried watching Euphoria (3 or 4 episodes) and it’s just too dark for me, I think. So… I’m now onto “Bad Vegan” on Netflix. 🙂 read more

Friday Finds & Reader Recommendations – 03-18-2022

By 10 Comments

HAPPY FRIDAY MY BOOK FRIENDS!! I have an amazing Friday Finds list in store for us (tons of great recommendations, and new releases) to choose from, for our weekend reads. I’m building it as we speak. 🙂 And I’d love to know what YOU’RE reading this weekend (or even watching – I need a binge-worthy show while I update some of these books lists). 😀

BLASTS FROM OUR BOOK PAST!!

TAKE A LOOK AT WHAT WE FOUND FOR THE WEEKEND :D !!

  • Single Girl in the City (The Eastons) by Marina Adair <— SHE OFFERS TO HELP HIM WITH HIS BAR!! “…After a tragic accident, kindergarten teacher, Abi Woods is forced to take stock of her life and vows to make better choices. She trades in her Teacher of the Year trophy for Good Samaritan hat and posts a Good Deed Needed signup sheet in town. Only this amateur do-gooder discovers that do-gooding is harder than it appears. Determined to make amends for her past choices, she agrees to team up with the big, broody bar owner next door—who might just be the biggest wrong she has to right…”
  • Oath of Sacrifice : A Dark Mafia Romance (Deviant Doms) by Jane Henry <— LIVE!!
  • Blade of Iris: A Dark Mafia Romance by K.A Knight <— LIVE!!
  • Hell Theory series by Lauren Gilley <— KELLY WAS SO INTO THESE!

Kelly: I loved Lauren Gilley’s Hell Theory series. 2021 had me become somewhat obsessed with her paranormal writing. The Sons of Rome and The Drake Chronicals are amazing! read more

Reader Question… Solved! The book about the single dad that hires her, but can’t date her because her father is his boss…

By 1 Comment

Sandra is looking for this one! Ooooh love this trope (kind of forbiddeny in a few ways… including the office romance. I bet this will be an amazing slow burn!!)

She asks:

Hi,

I’m looking for a specific book. It’s an older man, younger woman.

The guy is a father and he hires a woman he’s attracted too,  but can’t date her because her father is his boss.

I found it on kindle when searching for another book, but before I could get the title and author, my tablet died. read more

Reader Question – The book about the heroine who’s husband dies in the military, and his best friend is the Hero of this book

By 3 Comments

Rae is looking for this book! I LOVE military romance, and have read a few (and this trope comes up a lot. Best friends in the military and one dies, and other helps care for his wife…). I’m not sure about this one though.

She asks:

Hi, Maryse.

I hope you are well.

I am looking for a book.I can’t remember the title but i can vaguely remember some fact about the book which i am mentioning below:

1) the book is about love after loss.
2) hero is in military/Marine. And friend of heroine’s husband/fiancé
3) heroine’s husband dies on a mission/war or simply just dies.
4) The book was probably published between 2019-2021
5) the cover of the book was something like this “The hero is standing and the heroine is kissing him locking her legs around this waist”. read more

By Leave a Comment

<— BOOK FOG ALERT!!!! I just received the most amazing recommendation and had to post this awesome sounding duet!!

Michelle LOVED IT!

Hi, Maryse! 😊

I have been following your blook blog since I was in high school (so almost 10-ish years now), and there’s always a bit of nostalgia every time I check back in to see what reads you have to recommend.

There’s a bit of ebb and flow when it comes to making time for new reads. I finally picked up a book in what feels like forever, and my goodness, do I have a recommendation for you. read more
