Following my heart, one book at a time...
Kayla is looking for this funny book, and I know we can all use a new witty comedy romance read!
She asks:
I’m having trouble remembering a name of a book.
All I remember was one of those laugh out loud romance books, very inappropriate humor, best friends I’m thinking they were nurses worked at a hospital. I wanna reread but can’t for the life of me remember it. Any ideas from what little I remember?
I have read a few great doctor/nurse romance books, but I can’t be sure, in this instance.
Smut: A Standalone Romantic Comedy
Awwwww!!! Sexy sweetness in pure Karina Halle fashion. Oh sure, that title and sexy cover says one thing, and OMG is it ever …. HOT!!!!! But don’t let all that fool ya. It reads like our beloved new adult romance favorites. I mean, come on. We know this author well, and her romance style is fully present, here.
Grace: I really suggest you read Smut first because OMG!!! …I know I’m acting like a crazy person, but I’m being FOR REAL! The start is slow. I mean after the prologue. The PROLOGUE! It’s crazy, but then it slows down. It’s still really good writing because Karina Halle is very talented. It has a few funnies in there, but then she blows the doors off. I’m at 87% right now. ALL of my ranting has been for everything from about 18% on. JUST READ IT!!!! EVERYONE ON HERE SHOULD BE READING THIS!!!!
I’ve been looking for more “new adult” books with that awesome, old-school “college/new adult” feel. There are so many in the new adult genre, from super-heartbreaking, to super-dark and everything in between. But to me… that one to the left? That is a recent “new-adult” book with that delightful “old-school’ feel.
You know the ones… Beautiful Disaster (<— although that one is super heartbreaking – LOVE!!), Easy, Flat-Out Love, Rock Me, Slammed… you get the picture. And they don’t have to be jocks (this isn’t a sports star romance list, although that’s coming, too!). 😉 It’s about the “feel” of the writing, the storyline and the characters, their dialogue and connection, and not so much, the “trope”.
<— YOU GUYS!!!!!!!! I’m hearing this one is a MUST-READ. It’s a paranormal series that’s new-to-me, but has SO many awesome reviews, and our fellow readers are cackling with glee over this one! I just found out about it, and OMG what am I waiting for?!!
Laura: Oh u guys!! I just started a new series by alanea alder it’s a shifter/vampire/witch/fae series and it sooooo amazing and I haven’t even finished book 1! There’s a scene where he has so go get her tampons and of course he has no clue what they are so he takes his whole command unit with him I’m crying with laughter it’s so good u have u look it up maryse!! … so friggin good u have to have to take a look at this it’s making me all clappy hands excited
Cocky Bastard
Okay so this is definitely one of my new favorite super funny, slightly angsty, but full on “new-adult feel” reads. Just a well rounded, fantastically written story, that flowed so well, I can’t even tell when one author stopped writing, and the other author kicked in.
A great pairing, both in authorship AND in main characters, and WE LOVE IT!!
Maryse: Okay I’m already chuckling with glee reading Cocky Bastard, and I’m only in the first few pages. Tee hee!!!
