WEDNESDAY MORNING BREAKING NEWS UPDATE: Prime Day is over, and it was SO fun!!! But!!! This new release list is still rocking. 😉 Scroll down, and take a look at what just went LIVE this week. AND ALSO!!
ABBI GLINES ALERT!!! This one just went live! Because of Lila!!!! She leaves Rosemary Beach to start over… and meets HIM. ➔➔➔➔
“Two weeks into his no-women-rule he meets Lila. She’s so damn sweet and polite. Like she walked right out of an etiquette book. But he’d already been drunk before she walked in so there was a good chance she might not be as stunning and perfect as he thinks. He’s just too drunk to worry about that.
The next morning, he swears he can still smell her on his skin. He just can’t remember why or what happened after that third dance.
Their worlds are about to collide, and so are the secrets and lies.”
P.S. Let me know if I’m missing any or if you loved any (from this list or elsewhere).
For those going on a road trip soon, or maybe you’ve got some projects that require both hands this weekend but still allows you to “listen”… check out the free audible trial + 2 free audiobooks deal —>
- AND! Here’s the fun-tool again! —> Find out which of YOUR Kindle books are available as audiobooks at a BARGAIN-PRICE! <— This thing is so cool (Amazon calls it “Matchmaker“)!

BARGAINS & READER RECOMMENDATIONS!!!
- The Idea of You: A Novel <— BOOK FOG/FORBIDDEN LOVE ALERT!!! My awesome friend Kandace HIGHLY recommends this one but she says to GO IN BLIND!!! Oh yeah!!!! This is the one Susan read and recommended last week. THAT’S IT. TOP OF MY TBR after the next 2 buddy-reads I have going on. Plus my Fireman book. 😉 LOL!!! Gah. I just wanna read 24 hours a day.
Kandace: just finished a book. I can’t stop thinking about it. (sidenote: Here’s a tidbit from her review: “…It’s been hours since I finished and my heart is still beating fast. I’ll never forget this book and the excitement the author gave me. This is not a breezy read. I slowly savored every single word. I even found myself reading paragraphs again and again because I didn’t want to leave their world…“)
- To Love Jason Thorn and To Hate Adam Connor by Ella Maise <— ASHLEY LOVED BOTH of these books!
Ashley: I just finished re-listening to two books by Ella Maise To Love Jason Thorn and a To Hate Adam Connor, both are so much fun – if you haven’t checked them out before I highly recommend them!
Tessa: Ashley, I loved To Love Jason Thorn. That was such a fun book. I’ll look up To Hate Adam Connor. (yeah for KU!)
- Shifter’s Shadow (Legion of Angels Book 5) by Ella Summers <— Tessa is *squeeeeing* over this one (actually, the whole series)!
Tessa: “Shifter’s Shadow (Legion of Angels Book 5) by Ella Summers was released on Fri! *squee* I am loving this series. Once I’m done with my book, I’m going to move onto that! (The book is short. I’ll be done tonight. )”
- Black by T.L. Smith <— DARK ROMANCE ALERT!!! My friend Samantha (I like to call her ‘Manther <— I dunno 😉 I come up with weird nicknames…) absolutely LOVED this one! She’s been my friend for years, and we totally lost our minds together over Twilight. And I’ve come to realize over the years, book-wise, what Samantha loves, I love.
Samantha: Hey love. Just read another good book. It was called Black by T.L. Smith. Dark romance with MC undertones. Sh**ty proofreading but really captivating. It’s so good! Like I said, typos are terrible in certain parts but it’s worth it…”
- The Seven Series Boxed Set (Books 1-3) by Dannika Dark <— DANNIKA DARK BARGAIN-PRICED BUNDLE ALERT!!
Jan: I loved the Seven series by Dannika Dark. Wolf shifters but it’s not all about the pnr – more about the people and their relationships and adventures.
Robyn: the Seven Series… I will miss reading about the Weston Pack. One of the best shifter series out there!
- Dear Neighbor by River Laurent <— TEE HEE!!! I can’t help but love the title (see the WHOLE title on the book cover 😉 *grins*) and of course… that premise!! Recent release, awesome reviews and super-bargain priced!!! YES PLEASE!! “Here I am. One of only two residents left in an entire building block in Lower Manhattan.

Morning! 🙂
Good morning Leslie!!! 😀
So many good-looking ones here Maryse. Quite a few are calling my name. That series by Pam Goodwin in particular. Oooh, and Jilted.
I am currently reading The Studying Hours, How to Date a Douchebag. I need a palate cleanser after The Ground Ruled angst and before our BR.
I am also still eye balling the insta-pot. I was going to snag one last christmas and never did. 🙁
I love kitchen gadgety things but have no room for them. My latest one is the spiralizer. So fun making “noodles” out of zucchini, carrots, etc.
Morning!
Ohhhh I read The Idea of You last week and I am still thinking about it. I also can’t stop listening to Harry Styles album! I thought of him the whole time. I loved the author’s bio too. She is an actress that was in Fifty Shades of Grey and Fifty Shades Darker. I am hoping there will be a book 2
Holy Moses! I just got the new Robinne Lee AND Stephen’s King’s On Writing paperbacks for $11 total! Thanks Maryse <3
I’m eyeballing a pair of headphones on the Amazon deals… LOL!
I saw that sci fi up there by LA Casey! I think that’s my next read. I loved Dominic, but then again it was a bully book. 😀 I haven’t read more of her books and I’ve no idea why.
Tell the Wolves I’m Home by Carole Rifka Brunt is on sale for 1.99 from 11.99. This one’s been on my tbr and what a steal! According to GR, Michelle rated it 5 stars and so did my aunt! She very rarely 5stars anything so I’m really looking forward to this. 🙂
Bwahahah, Tessa… you said bully book and I had to reread your post, because I was all like, what, where?!?! Geez…. Tessa… um, are you reading The Unrequited?? There’s certain aspects of the book I think you would enjoy, LOL! Just sayin’
Sounds like The Idea of You is a must read! I love Harry Style’s new album also, Jen! I bought an iTunes card for music for the first time ever (I don’t buy music when radio is free) just for that. And Ed Sheeran. Lol
I am reading Unrequited! 😀 Glad to hear that it’s a type. lol
OMG, OMG, OMG GREY!!!! You haven’t read Dominic by LA Casey. Go read it! It is a bully book!!!
Tasha, I have to read that one, too!!
I have 4 books I want to read this week. I need to get cracking.
The new one by Aly Martinez, Unrequited, The Idea of You, and I received the ARC for Tarryn Fisher’s latest. :D!!!!
Thank you for including Truck Stop Tryst!
YES Amazon Prime Day!!! Also known as Kim Buys All the Goodies!!! Now my poor hubby doesn’t like it as much as I do but I have the blank stare down pat when he asks why did you need that? LOL
Kim you must share the goodies you found!! 😀 I love reading what everyone got.
I LOVE my pressure cooker! Anyone who doesn’t have one should grab this deal.
See I’m not so sure about these “prime deals”…I’ve been comparing prices and most of these supposed deals are no deals at all. I’m glad I did that because I was ready TO SHOP!
Good afternoon.
I thought The Unrequited came out today so I’m upset about that, and NOW I see Maryse has a Tarryn Fisher ARC?!? Alright, that’s it. Tantrum time. Oh yes…this is happening. Right. Freaking. Now.
(Even though I’m actually thrilled for you, Maryse…and us when the book is released ;))
A bright spot in my tantrum-worthy day is that I’ve had The Idea of You in my library for a bit, and “go in blind” are magical catnip words for me so now I’m itching to read it!! 😀
*smooches bev’s cheek*
Good afternoon!!
Hey, at least I didn’t hug you.
😆
*runs off to one-click a Roomba* <—— FINALLLY!
Amy. Don’t let it find poop. It really likes to paint… 😉 SO I hear. I want one so bad, but for that.
Tessa????!!!!
I don’t know how this can be true but so freaking funny. Scroll down to the HP text. LOL.
https://www.laineygossip.com/celebrity-social-media-round-up-for-july-11-2017/47416
I really want to read The Idea Of You, but $9.99! YIKES! But it keeps calling to me!
Tessa- I saw L A Caseys new book. Idk if I can get into that. You’ll have to read it and let me know how it is.
I have read all the books in Casey’s “Dominic” series. You will love them! They are funny, angsty and bullyish! Each brother gets a book and each girl who they end up with gets a novella. So good!
OMG bev, that is the funniest thing ever! I actually really want to read that… someone find it for me. LOL!
Grey I love the it took Dudley’s death for him to get suspicious. Lol.
Tasha J….I hope you like it!!
lol That’s funny. Necrophilia, really? I know they get darker, but really? And yes, because killing off Dudley would totally make things suspicious…
Robyn, I am reading it right now. It’s entertaining and she’s feisty. It’s nothing to take too seriously, but it’s fun without multiple organs.
Tessa…that has to be auto correct…..right?
Tasha – I did love Tell the Wolves I’m Home. I read it for my “pick a book that takes place in another decade” monthly challenge. Not my usual read. A very poignant coming of age story. Loved it!
just finished The Idea of You and it is fantastic. I just got the chills after reading that last sentence. Very well done.
YAY Lindsay!! One of the tops on my TBR list right now!! 😀
How I feel about the br.
(If link works.)
https://youtu.be/-Bxc6AzEkEo
LOL BEV!!!!
I heard “When is it bev’s turn?” *snort*
*tackle snuggles bev* :D!!!!
Bev, remember the conversation we all had about alien books with extra ? This one doesn’t have that. They are just grey with odd colored eyes.
LOL! My mind went to internal organs.
lol You have better thoughts, though probably because you didn’t read one that has some odd parts down below. The biggest difference is there is more romantic bonding, they bite 😛 , and they are HUGE (tall wise people! Mind out of the gutter!)
Bev, you keep me laughing!!!
The Idea of You sounds great, but the price does not!!
Is there a release date for the new Tarryn Fisher book?
I have an iRoomba and it is the greatest thing ever!!
*sigh*
I love Prime Day way too much. I bought a DNA kit, an external hard drive, and now I’m contemplating a Kindle Fire 8 (even though I have an iPad). And a laptop. Do I NEED a Kindle Fire?
I think I do. 😉
Snuggles and kisses you all are out of control today.
Yay, I finished a book!!! It’s been WAY too long, but this book makes up for all my missed time. Before We Were Yours by Lisa Wingate- 5+++ stars for me. This one’s my favorite for 2017, hands down. I’ve never read Lisa Wingate before, but I’ll definitely be looking into more of her work. For ME (my opinion) it was as good as The Nightingale. COMPLETELY different stories, but all the feels were there for me. Historical fiction, though I’d never heard of the Tenn. Children’s Home Society scandal before. And such beautiful writing! Rill and her family will forever be in my heart, *sniff* they really came alive for me. I really loved reading all the past parts, the way they spoke, everything’s descriptions, felt so alive and real. And then I also enjoyed the present because, man I needed a break from all the rough stuff and the mystery, some part of it probably only for me (drrr) had me puzzled until the near end. Gosh I feel all full of emotion, it’s so heartbreaking. I even had to stretch this sucker out forever it seemed, though I didnt want to, and it was still fresh and raw every time I jumped back in. I’m actually going to watch that shark movie with Blake Lively to block it all out right now. Lol
You need a Kindle paperwhite, Maryse. No glare, can adjust light. Feels just like reading a book. Lightweight too. iPad has way too much glare! And heavy!
Kindle fire 8 at $50 is a good deal though…. hmmm…. itchy one click finger…
*peeks in room*
*hears crickets*
Wow, where is everyone?
Ireland.
Passed out from our Prime buying frenzy. Seriously. I don’t even want to hear about sales.
LOL!
I thought something wrong with blog or my internet. It was eerily quiet here.
Bad news is I am not liking The Studying Hours, How to Date a Douchebag. Good news is I replaced my pick for Tasha in my book buddy challenge to After I Do.
I put on my big girl panties and am finally trying TJR.
I hope you’re all getting ready for your ‘The Unrequited’ buddy read… *pours shots*
Since I’m a spectator I want to be entertained.
I want Wimbledon levels of buddy reading.
I AM SO IN GREY!!!!!
*downs the shot*
*gags a little*
STRAIGHT???
*laughs*
Definitely straight… *giggle* I went in alone, at least you guys have each other. Oooh, I am so excited!
Hey Maryse!
I think you should add The Broken Puppet by Amo Jones (the Silver Swan sequel) to both your TBR and Preorders’ lists. The Silver Swan was WAY too good, with just the right amount of romance, intrigue, suspense and, of course, kink! It was sort of like a good combination of storylines similar to Corrupt and Paper Princess which are two INCREDIBLE books. I mean, it was one of those books that you simply CAN’T PUT DOWN so obviously I’m hoping The Broken Puppet will be similar or even better. Thought it was worth mentioning.
xo
YAY!!! Thank you Maria for that recommendation. I shall look them up for myself and also add them to tomorrow’s Friday Recommendations list. *hug*
Started Low and not sure what I think.
One part that just made me uncomfortable was when the MC was thinking how the length of the guys nose hinted at his ancestry.
Ummm…..really???
FLT
“My heart is not an organ.” ~ The Unrequited by Saffron Kent
Oh yeah. This is happening.
Maria, I was so thinking I need me a bully book and loved Corrupt and Paper Princess so I’ll definitely check out Silver Swan!!!
My FLT is the same as Amy’s.
