MY REVIEW

*Advanced reader copy received in exchange for an honest opinion*

5 "You are the sine to my cosine" STARS!
Dating-ish is surprisingly refreshing, extraordinary and hilariously awesome.

I love everything about this book and Penny Reid as usual delivered a perfect jewel. It is very witty, exciting and I had a really good time savouring every pages.

Matthew Simmons or Matt is not your typical
hero as he seems a bit unique, or maybe odd sometimes with the way he speaks and also maybe the way he is dressed. Nevertheless, there is this charm to him that I like right away from the start. And OMG, his nerdy jokes are ridiculously hilarious. I love it!

Now let's talk about Marie, she is super loveable and totally great. I like that she is very kind, compassionate and always seems to be helping people and yet she is also really brave and adventurous. She can be a little bit craaazy sometimes expecially at going the extra mile to get her work done and I admire her for her bravery. Most of all, I loveeee how she is a great cook and Matt being a food lover is seriously perfect.

All that being said, I think Matt and Marie is perfect for each other and I enjoy reading their story. It was definitely one of my top favourite love story and I highly recommend it. Totally worth reading and believe me if I say you wouldn't want to miss out on this one. :)

BLURB

Dating-ish' can be read as a standalone, is a full length 100k word novel, and is book #6 in the Knitting in the City Series.

There are three things you need to know about Marie Harris: 1) She's fed up with online dating, 2) She's so fed up, she's willing to forego the annoyance and consider more creative alternatives, and 3) She knows how to knit.

After the most bizarre and irritating first date in the history of humankind, Marie is looking for an alternative to men. With the help of her friends, she quickly identifies a few possibilities:

Need a cuddle? Use a professional cuddler. Need affirmation? Get yourself a life coach. Need an orgasm? Try orgasm meditation! Why does she need the hassle of a romantic partner when she can meet all her needs with paid services?

But then her irritating date resurfaces. And he's not at all the person she thought he was. And he suggests a different--and crazier--solution to her dilemma . . .

As everyone knows (or will soon come to realize), traditional relations between humans are a thing of the past. Robots are our future. And if robots are our future, then why do we need other people at all?

REVIEW: THE FOXE & THE HOUND by R.S. GREY

About THE FOXE & THE HOUND

When your life is a hot mess at twenty, it’s cute. At twenty-seven…well, not so much.

It’s just that my lofty dreams—making it as a real estate agent, paying rent on time, showering daily—have stayed just that: dreams. Oh, and love? I’ve decided love might be a little ambitious for me at the moment. Instead, I’ve settled for the two guys who will never leave me: Ben & Jerry.

That is, until Dr. Adam Foxe takes up residence as the town’s new vet.

With his strong jaw, easy confidence, and form-fitting scrubs, it’s not long before every housewife in Hamilton is dragging neglected tomcats in for weekly checkups.

Like everyone else, I’m intrigued. Even after I spoil my chance at a good first impression, he still offers me a proposition I can’t refuse: play his girlfriend at a family function and he’ll hire me as his real estate agent. Welcome to love in the 21st century.

It’s too bad I underestimated Adam’s irresistible charm and the undeniable attraction that burns between us. The day he pins me to the wall and silences me with a kiss, the line between reality and ruse begins to blur. Every teasing touch brings me to my knees. Every kiss promises more.

It looks like my hot mess of a life is about to get a little hotter.

5 ADORABLY MOUSE STARS

R.S. Grey has once again delivered a masterpiece and it is freaking awesome!

I like every single thing in the book and Adam Foxe and Madeleine Thatcher are perfect together!

Adam is this new hot dude in town and he drive black Audi, wear suit and also happened to be a vet. Did I mentioned he is hot? yeah, he might be my new book-boyfriend. (Ssshhhhh. Don't tell my fiancé) Anyway, I like how Adam just have this aura to him that drawn readers to offing love him and most importantly I like how he can't help himself from falling in love with Madeleine. I also like her crazy mum too lol his family is very entertaining.

Madeleine is the sort of heroine that you would definitely love and I really admire her for her strength in dealing with life. She seems like to always struggle to make ends meet but she keep her head high and just keep moving forward as much as she can. I also like that she has this quirks about her and she can be really funny that I totally laugh at some of her monologue and amusing antics.

All in all, I would say that it is a book that have a splendid storyline with marvelous characters and if you are looking for a book that you could indulge into with additional bonus of good laughs then this is perfect for you. Highly recommended!

MY REVIEW

*Advance reader copy received in exchange for an honest review*

4 OPPOSITE ATTRACT STARS!

Somehow, Some Way was a delightful read that will certainly gives readers an enjoyable time.

Brady is this hot 35 years old Latino architect that likes everything to be neat, tidy and fixed. Somehow, he is set on his mind to seek for a 'traditional' wife that will obey him, cooks food and take care of the children at home. I must admit I think it is quite rare to find a male lead in a book that is looking to settle down because it usually about the playboy or manwhore or something like that. So in that regards, I felt that this book is refreshing although the female in me pretty much screamed inside when he told Charlotte his ideal wife characteristics because hello it is now 21st century and I like to work. But I don't know, being a stay at home wife can be good too hmm..

Anyway, let's talk about Charlotte now or Charlie as what she likes to be called as. Charlotte is a gorgeous 25 years old newly hired at the Pierce Brothers Construction in which it is the same company as where Brady works. She is young, impulsive, work-driven, totally not conservative and has no desire to settle down any time soon. In other words, she is a complete opposite of Brady.

And yet, somehow and some way they attracted to each other especially during the time they spend together in renovating a house that Charlotte bought. I like how they actually sort of dislike each other at first and then as they gradually getting close they just can't ignore their feeling anymore. Then, the angst about the different wants and needs in life is just a perfect flair in the plot and I dig that.

All that being said, I would say that it is worth reading and if you're looking for a good time that this book is definitely for you. Recommended for contemporary romance readers who loves a HEA.

Release Day Lunch: Love In Transit by Jana Aston, Ainsley Booth, Kitty French, BJ Harvey, Raine Miller and Liv Morris

Today we have the release day blitz for Love in Transit, a sexy new project from Jana Aston, Ainsley Booth, Kitty French, BJ Harvey, Raine Miller, and Liv Morris!

Title: Love in Transit

Genre: Contemporary Romance

About Love In Transit:

You know those people that have a house full of motivational slogans? Embrace Every Moment, stamped on their coffee mugs. Always Kiss Me Goodnight painted above their perfectly made beds. I’m not one of those people. This morning I overslept, then slipped on a stray sock and banged my toe into the nightstand. The elevator in my building broke and I had to run down six flights of stairs. And then my local coffee shop was closed. For health code violations. What’s that? Not the end of the world? You want me to suck it up? Did I mention I’m wearing a wedding dress… on the subway? It’s a Good Day for a Hot Mess. Someone embroider that on a pillow.
