Reader Recommendation – The book where she overhears her husband talking to his girlfriend on the phone…

By 1 Comment

Elaine has a book recommendation for our marital strife/infidelity category and HOLY MOLY, the “she overhears” trope is one of my favorites. It makes me ROAR!!!

And this one is FREE on Wattpad!! YAY US!!

She says:

Hi,

…try, ‘The Foster Girls: Willow’ by GroveltoHEA on WattPad – this book has a similar story where the main M/C is wealthy and has to marry to meet the stipulations of his father’s will.

Poor Willow overhears a conversation between M/C and his girlfriend after the wedding night. He ships out Willow to a cottage by the sea so he can continue his affair/ and see other women! read more

Janet’s Mini Book Review – Rock and Roll Never Forgets by Barbara Stewart

Rock and Roll Never Forgets (The Rock and Roll Trilogy Book 1) <— BLAST FROM OUR PAST & SOOOOO MANY LOVED THIS ONE! And I mean like…”best book ever” type of love.

Which is crazy, ’cause this is another one where the cover leaves me less than enthusiastic but… I have a series reading order post dedicated to the series and there was so much love for it anyway. And you know what they say.  You shouldn’t judge a book by its cover, so I’m pretty much convinced on the reviews alone. read more

Margie’s Mini Book Review – The Night That Wasn’t Mine by Constantino Fernandes

MARGIE IS A GIRL AFTER MY OWN BOOK-HEART!! I LOVE TWISTY & BINGING & she said those two magic words amongst many more! 😀

She just sent me this recommendation:

RE: Betrayal and Revenge

OMG — I found this buried on Amazon with not many reviews and they were mixed. It’s “The Night That Wasn’t Mine” by Constantino Fernandes.

It’s a supremely binge worthy tale of incredibly complex and horrific emotional manipulation and how the amazing mfc handles the aftermath. I’m not giving the ending away, but it is twisty and happy and satisfying. read more

Reader Recommendation – A Modern Love Story by Jolyn Palliata

By Leave a Comment

BLAST FROM MY BOOK PAST!! This book put me through the romance-angst ringer. I mean… it had everything we love to hate and was a definite Kindle-thrower for sure (so if you choose to read this, tie that sucker to your wrist). Just sayin’.

I didn’t LOVE the book but pretty much because it made me so mad, but I’ll never forget it (especially one particular scene). And Chelsea brought it right back up front and center when I found her old email recommendation and I thought… OMG YES!! I remember that book, and I pulled up my review and I think, you know what? If you’re in the mood for a cheating a$$hole love story, then this might still be one for you. read more

The Matchmaker’s Playbook (Wingmen Inc. 1) <— IN THE MOOD FOR LIGHTHEARTED & FUN ROMANCE? We love Rachel VanDyken and Cristina (she’s been with us for years now!!) LOVED this one!

How did I miss it? Well… since she sent us a recent AMAZING book review (and I’m reading that book as we speak) I just found this one (and a few others that she’s sent over), and I’m creating posts to her favorites.

I’m SO glad I’ve found them, and I’m so glad she’s with us. read more
