Taking Chances (Taking Chances and Forgiving Lies Book 1)
Okay, here is another one that spontaneously rushed it’s way to the top of my list this week. I heard about it for the first time a few days ago, but over and over again, the enthusiasm was making me antsy. I just couldn’t put it off and had to see what all the craze was about. And… you guys did good! I’m on the fence with just how much I liked/loved it. I’m literally half and half with this book and I can’t commit to a grade, because there were some parts (big parts) that were full-on five star for me (loved and hated parts, but they affected me SO much that I was all “OMG this just became a 5 star read!!”) and theennnnn….. some other parts (or maybe just my “issues”) that give me that “3 star” urge. Half and half.

Book Review – Bone Deep by Bonnie Dee
Bone Deep
THIS was an absolute find! What a treasure of a book, and even though it’s considered a “short” (248 pages) it was long enough to absolutely consume me for quite a few hours, and had just enough of everything for me to be 100% focused completely on this story. Now it wasn’t the first time I heard about it. When I raved about “Finding Home” (that unorthodox story had me riveted) many chimed in and let me know that Bonnie Dee had a few other gripping tales up her sleeve. This being one that was most often recommended.
Book Review – Damaged Goods by Lauren Gallagher

Damaged Goods
I was doing a bit of “What to Read After Fifty” research and happened upon this book. It wasn’t even on my radar until yesterday but OMG my jaw dropped (just look at that gorgeous cover)!! I HAD to know just who was the damaged goods in this one, and I so wanted to walk that path with them.
So… I downloaded the sample. You know… just so I wouldn’t forget it amongst my huge TBR list. Sometimes it’s out of sight, out of mind with me, and with a cover like that constantly in my face, I new I’d be on it soon enough. And I went back to the book I HAD been reading but I couldn’t stop thinking about this one. My current read was good, but this one was calling me so I went ahead and read that sample. And that was it. I was hooked.
Cherrie Lynn – Rock Me (The Ross Siblings) Series Reading Order

One of my favorite contemporary series ever (and I’ve only read two books, but there’s more to come, and I can’t wait. Brian absolutely WOW’d me!)
A story about two gorgeous brothers (complete opposites – a lawyer, and a rocker/tattoo artist), but the series will be exploring the lives (and loves) of their friends, and their sister! I can’t wait for more!
Maryse: ROCK ME!!! BRIAN!!!!! ❤️ I love him. Almost TRAVIS “love him”.
Susan: Since it has been 10 years. Who would you see as Brian today?
Book Review – Hearts in Darkness by Laura Kaye
Hearts in Darkness
*love* I am considering this as one of my favorites in the “short” story category. Usually “shorts” don’t thrill me, because there’s not enough time to get to know the characters. Not the case with this one. I felt them. My only complaint is that I wanted more, by the time I finished it.
But what made it so good is that even in it’s shorter format, it had everything I needed to fall in love. Oh and the “steamy stuff” was off the charts… NOT a YA read. The story was original, and while one might think a little far-fetched, when you think about, this sort of thing could totally happen. Nuh uh! It totally could! If you don’t get your elevator serviced, it could! Oh humor me, and just go with it! LOL!
