End of Story Cover Reveal

End of Story, a steamy and quirky enemies to lovers romantic comedy from New York Times bestselling author Kylie Scott is coming February 14th, and we have the adorable cover!

When Susie Bowen inherits a charming fixer-upper, she’s excited to start living her best HGTV-life. But when she opens the door to find that her contractor is none other than her ex’s best friend Lars—the same man who witnessed her humiliating public break-up six months ago—she isn’t exactly eager to have him around. The sooner this renovation is done, the sooner Susie can get back to embracing her single life.

Things go from awkward to unbelievable when Lars knocks down a wall and discovers a divorce certificate dated ten years in the future…with both their names on it. It couldn’t possibly be real, could it? As Susie and Lars work to unravel the document’s origins, the impossibility of a spark between them suddenly doesn’t seem so far-fetched. But would a relationship between them be doomed before it’s even begun?

Princess and the Player Blog Tour

“The couple has chemistry to spare and Madden-Mills packs in the feels. Returning readers will be pleased.” —Publishers Weekly

Princess and the Player, an all-new sexy, surprise pregnancy sports romance featuring a meet cute at a masquerade ball from Wall Street Journal bestselling author Ilsa Madden-Mills, is out now!

A masquerade ball brings together an NFL player and a penniless princess in this smart and sexy romance from Wall Street Journal bestselling author Ilsa Madden-Mills.

Levelheaded Francesca Lane never thought she’d miss her own wedding. But when her fiancé betrays her, she puts on her wedding dress and ditches the altar for a masquerade ball—at an exclusive lifestyle club.

There, she meets unknown-to-her NFL star Tuck Avery, dressed as a prince and hiding behind a mask—he’s there to celebrate his birthday. For one night, Francesca and Tuck indulge in a wickedly incognito affair. No names. No strings. And the masks don’t come off.

Unfortunately, Francesca realizes quickly that her masked prince is the wealthy jock who lives in the penthouse of her apartment building. His hobbies include parties and supermodels—or so the tabloids say. Getting tangled up with a shallow jerk is the last thing Francesca needs right now, so she vows to keep Tuck from recognizing her (not that she’s his type anyway).

But fate has a teeny-tiny trick up her sleeve…a plus sign on a pregnancy test. Can this tormented prince accept love, or will he push his princess away forever?

Review: Not Over You

Not Over You by Whitley Cox
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

This story had so much potential. I tried really hard to enjoy it. However, it was just lacking something. I don’t know if it was the back-and-forth or just the characters all together. This is supposed to be a RomCom, and where I may have found a few lines chuckle-worthy, this was not a RomCom. Again I wanted to love this book because it sounded awesome but just fell short for me. This was my first story by this author, but I will be sure to try again because maybe it was just me being a mood reader.

Review: Wanting the Fight

Wanting the Fight by L.P. Dover
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Wanting the Fight is the third book in the second generation of the Gloves Off series. This is a series of standalones, but I would still read them in order. I was pulled in instantly by Peyton and Ethan.

This story is filled with Passion, secret underground fighting, and angst like you’d never believe. Uber strong female lead with a secret relationship and a surprise pregnancy.

Just read it today, and you won’t regret it because everything Dover touches is gold.

Review: Falling for Rome

Falling for Rome by Gillian Archer
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

So this story has two of my favorite tropes, Fake Dating and Average Joe Dating a Celebrity. This is such a great story. I enjoyed it so much!
Struggling screenwriter, Sofia has far too many jobs, but she has to make ends meet somehow, right? One of the jobs is a dog walker. It just happens one’s name is Pongo. I know I automatically thought 101 Dalmations. Anyway, while Sofia is walking Pongo, he gets loose. Only to jump all over a guy lying on the beach.
I’m sure you’ve already guessed it; he’s the Roman Grier and Pongo’s owner. Did I mention he’s a famous actor? No? Well, he is but now, to get the rest of the story, you need to pick it up today!

Review: The Summer of No Regrets

The Summer of No Regrets by Katherine Grace Bond
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

Okay, so don’t crucify me. This story had so much potential. There are some quite funny spots. The blurb caught my attention right away, and I loved the cover, but what in the world does the title have to do with this story? Like, I’m seriously baffled. Let me say I am a mood reader, so maybe it’s just a me thing. I do feel as if this was more literary fiction than romance. With that being said, if that is what you enjoy, this is most definitely more for you.

Review: Brutal Play

Brutal Play by Alison Rhymes
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This story is book two in the False Start Series. This one is about Noah and Lorelai. I’ve not read the first story, but I’m going to have to go back to it now. I didn’t care for Lorelai myself. I wanted to be it I couldn’t. She’s very self-absorbed in my opinion. I feel like maybe I missed stuff from book one. Therefore I may enjoy it more after I read book one. I suggest if you plan to read this book, you should start at the beginning.

When things start to go strangely on my first day of school, I don’t know what to make of it. How am I to navigate a strange world that I cannot see or even knew existed?

Magic? Prophecies?

Not to mention the hot guys that are suddenly all up in my new life!
