R.L. Mathewson – Anger Management Series Reading Order

By 3 Comments

 <— NEW SERIES BY R.L. MATHEWSON ALERT!! AND THIS ONE IS GOING LIVE in just a few days!!! OMG how could I have forgotten how awesome her stories (and characters) are?? I’m halfway through this one and I AM LOVING IT!

I’m hooked ’cause it’s got the perfect amount of friends-to-lovers/slow burn, and he’s moody and totally uncuddly, and unabashedly uninterested in… just about everyone. 😉 And I just adore how quirky and nervous she is around him (she’s his new live in assistant), and yet, endearing and completely indispensable. Best of all? I’m loving how it’s unfolding. Totally believable (and so are all of the characters). read more

Mharis needs our book help!! And I *think* I might know it…

She asks:

Hello Maryse!

I’ve tried checking my “read” pile in goodreads but can’t seem to find my book. Here’s the thing. I barely remember anything, so please bear with me.

It’s about a single dad with a son, who has a sweet tooth who keeps coming back to the female protagonist candyshop/bakeshop *I can’t remember which.

That’s all I can remember. Holy sh!t. I’m bad at this. I just realized that my clue doesn’t really give much. I’m sorry. read more

Belle Aurora – Shot Callers Series Reading Order

By 2 Comments

 This one was HUGELY popular when it released in 2015, and readers have been anxiously awaiting more.

Grey: Lev by Belle Aurora… **5 stars*** Been a while since I’ve handed out a 5 star review. But this book is totally deserving. Angst, but not the typical run of the mill kind. Sweet… (“I want to be your penguin…” Awwww! *cue hearts floating above my head with stars in my eyes*) with a hint of spice, and some absolutely hilarious bits.

I don’t believe I’ve read this author before, but I wouldn’t hesitate to pick up another from her! And I am seriously hoping she continues this series with other characters that were introduced. Read it, you’ll love it! read more
