Margie’s Mini Book Review – The Ruined Bride by Madison Brooks

By Leave a Comment

The Ruined Bride: A Billionaire’s Heartbreaking Divorce, a Hidden Child, and a Second Chance Romance (The Ex-Wives Club Book 2) by Madison Brooks <— ANOTHER BETRAYAL BUT IT’S HIM WHO’S ACCUSING HER!!! Margie found us this one and she says THIS is the best of the series so far!

She says:

I know this is another Madison Brooks book, albeit in another series, but it’s so angsty and new…it came out in November 2025. I read the other two books in this series (The Ex Wives Club)…they’re ok, but not as good as this book. read more

Margie’s Mini Book Review – Happily Ever Never by Andrea Nourse

By Leave a Comment

Happily Ever Never<— HERE’S ANOTHER BETRAYAL & REDEMPTION FIND BY MARGIE!! And her own description of this has me excited!!

She says:

Here’s one from 2018 with only 341 reviews. It’s a doozy.

Andrea Nourse: Happily Ever Never

This book has a lot of twists and turns. It grabs your attention from the start with the wedding dress saga.

When you first learn about the FMC you may not like her…a big drinker who can consume two bottles of wine by herself at a special dinner, a party girl, an airhead (doesn’t care about college grades but wants a high end job), goes to an interview hungover. read more

Book Review – First Lie Wins: A Novel by Ashley Elston

By Leave a Comment

First Lie Wins: Reese’s Book Club: A Novel by Ashley Elston <— Okay… this one was a fun one!! Psych-thriller and all of the exciting (and scary!!) elements that goes with it, and what I loved, is that we’re following the story through the eyes of one of the villain (or I should say villainess – which I love!). AND it kept me guessing, AND I was wrong at the end, and I loved that!

I was told to go in blind and I totally did, so if any of you like twists and turns and surprises and having NO clue what’s coming, then yes, go in blind and consider this part, my mini review. —> 4.5 STARS!! read more

Margie’s Mini Book Review – Choosing Cassidy by Natasha Derouchie

By Leave a Comment

HOLY MOLY SHE’S THE OTHER WOMAN ALERT!! Margie’s latest find! THE OTHER WOMAN is the main character. Ohhh a glimpse from the eyes of the villainess?

P.S. Book #2 is now live, so we can devour to our heart’s content! They are all interconnected standalones.

She says:

Another Cheating Betrayal Book

Natasha Derouchie: Choosing Cassidy (Book 1 of 2 in The Soundtrack Series)

This book is binge worthy. It’s a cheating betrayal story that comes from a different direction, with characters that are well thought out, and with people who feel real with real emotions and reactions on rebuilding relationships and handling stress. read more

Book Review – Remain: A Supernatural Love Story by M. Night Shyamalan & Nicholas Sparks

By Leave a Comment

Remain: A Supernatural Love Story <— WHOA, RIGHT?? The king of twisty horror movies (he’s my absolute favorite – even the movies considered “duds” I’ve found captivating!!) and the king of twisty love stories and what a match-up!!!! I was absolutely delighted and there is nothing I love more than a good ghost love story, because… how can it possibly work, right? GAHHHHH!!!! My heart ached already going into this knowing I was in for something touching and angsty. read more
