Book Review – In an Instant by Suzanne Redfearn

In an Instant
FIRST OFF!!! GO IN BLIND – not even the synopsis – if you’re okay with (and even LOVE) INTENSE, good or bad SURPRISES!!! Even skip over my review altogether and just go read it for an unforgettable story. 😉

This was my selection in this month’s “Amazon First” read that I jumped on due to the recommendations and all of those incredible reviews. The enthusiasm for it, cinched it for me and because of that, I didn’t even read the reviews (or the synopsis). I knew it was a “women’s romance/thriller” and that was good enough for me. I wanted to go in blind, and had no clue what I was in for, and was delighted!! AND!! I got to buddy-read it with my book twin! read more

Reader Question… Solved! The college romance book set in Australia with a tall & thin heroine & a hero that doesn’t talk much.

By 6 Comments

Cat is looking for this one! Sounds like a fun one (I love the part about the hero)… 😉 but I haven’t read it. Have you?

She asks:

I’m looking for a book, if anyone could help.

It’s college romance, in Australia, the heroine is tall and very thin, hero doesn’t talk much. Heroine isn’t a virgin, her ex treated her bad, made her feel like she’s not sexy or something of that sort.

At one point there’s a hot scene where the heroine tries to be creative, she uses honey, not sure how. read more
