15-word review: Bridesmaid Wendy keeps hooking up with former crush Noah, who’s the brother of the bride. Wendy’s best friend Jane (from One and Only) is getting married, and she’s delighted to be asked to be the maid of honour. Unfortunately, the best man is the bride’s older brother, Noah, who Wendy nursed a crush on for pretty much her entire adolescence until he broke her heart by standing her up at the prom.

Another enemies to lovers romance, I did say it’s my favourite trope

Official book description: Of all the decisions brilliant lawyer Victoria Clemenceaux has made in her life, an unforgettable one-night stand with her opposing counsel Owen Pohl is either the worst…or the best. One thing is certain: these long-standing rivals aren’t going to let their searing attraction stop them from winning the biggest case of their careers.

Meh. That’s about my whole review.  But in the interest of following CBR rules, here we go.  Adam and Sarah Morgan are a couple in crisis.

But when Adam’s lover is found dead in the Morgans’ beach house, he is the prime suspect.  Sarah runs herself ragged as she tries to both keep up […]

Disclaimer! I got an ARC from NetGalley. That has in no way influenced my review.   In a dystopian alternate reality, where the 2016 election led to the USA becoming a tightly regulated surveillance state, pretty much at the same time as the existence of a number of supernatural beings were revealed, several big cities, including New York, are now a Sanctuary City for supernaturals. Joe Peluso, an ex-soldier turned werewolf through military experimentation, is in prison for murdering six bear shifters with ties to […]

Back in the day I devoured John Grisham books like candy. The “classics” I remember fondly, aka, The Firm, The Client, The Pelican Brief, The Runaway Jury, and, a departure from the thes, A Time to Kill. For no real discernible reason, it’s been about a decade (whoa) since I have picked one up and a quick pass over the “hot and new” section at my local library grabbed my attention as unsurprisingly, John is still at it. A few of my book clubs are […]

I think I found this book in the Kindle Unlimited library randomly one day.  It looked good, so I downloaded it.  Who knows when that was.  Anyway, I finished it, and I liked it.  I’m already reading the second book in the series.  I ACTUALLY STARTED THIS SERIES ON THE FIRST BOOK!  That is truly an accomplishment for me.  Also, it looks like the entire series so far is on Kindle Unlimited.  This brings me joy. Onto the story!  Joe Dillard has been a defense […]
