The beginning…

February 21, 2017February 26, 2017 ChandrisLeave a comment

When I was in high school, my Aunt brought a few large paper grocery bags of romance novels over to my Mom’s house. One day, looking for something to do I started reading the back of one… and quickly made my way through reading all of the full bags from there. After awhile of begging…… Continue reading The beginning…

New 5 Star #BookReview on the Blog!! Beard Necessities by Penny Reid --> https://amzn.to/2quC3b0 <-- Check out my #linktreeinprofile for all of my latest FULL reviews! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Review Snippet: Beard Necessities is the book that dries the tears that were left behind from the emotionally devastating, yet sadly beautiful love story that was Beard with Me. Claire and Billy's young love might have been fast and unfulfilled, but the hurt that they have experienced being apart has lingered ever since. And with their mutual secrets having been kept quiet for far too long, Billy and Claire are about to get the full Winston meddling treatment... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Blurb: Billy Winston’s family is going to see him happy and in love if it’s the last thing they do. No one deserves a happily-ever-after quite as much as the second oldest Winston brother and his lady love, Claire McClure (aka Scarlet St. Claire). Cruelty and circumstance tore them apart almost twenty years ago. Secrecy and bitterness kept them separated. But you know who's tired of their separation and stubbornness? Everyone. Especially Billy Winston’s family. And now they're going to do something about it. Well-meaning interference means the star-crossed lovers can’t stop tripping over each other in the hills of Tuscany, the catacombs of Rome, and the waterways of Venice. Billy and Claire find themselves thrown together and at the mercy of the Winston siblings’ shenanigans. But will their forced proximity bring them together? Or push them even further apart? This second-chance romance brings back the entire Winston gang, playing cupid in one last story of love, hi-jinks, and family collusion. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ #BeardNecessities #PennyReid #WinstonBrothers #5stars #topread #romancebookrecs #mustread #instabooks #bookstagram #bookobsessed #bookish #bookinstagram #mybookfeatures #romancereader #contemporaryromance #bookstagrammersunite #bookgram #booklover #bookblog #bookworm #romancenovel #lovestory #readromance #booksofinstagram #bookphotography #reviewcopy #nightbirdnovels

New 4.5 Star #BookReview on the Blog!! Gilded Lily by Staci Hart #oneclick --> https://amzn.to/2LlQFB4 <-- Check out my #linktreeinprofile for all of my latest FULL reviews! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Review Snippet: Gilded Lily was a thoughtful and entertaining opposites attract story that was a sexy, sweet and all-around-delightful read. Lila and Kash make a great team when it comes to working together, but when an agreed upon fling turns into so much more, will these two realize that their HEA may be closer than they ever thought possible, or will the drama of their differences ruin it all... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Blurb: They say there’s no such thing as perfect. But I’ve built my life to perfection—the perfect boyfriend, the perfect apartment, the perfect career planning celebrity weddings. My job—my only job—is to make sure every event is absolutely and completely perfect. What’s not perfect? Kash Bennet. And I wish I didn’t find that so appealing. I could have told you every perfectly imperfect thing about the gardener at Longbourne. Like his hair, lush and black and far too long. Or his nose, the flat bridge of a Greek god, bent a little like it’s been broken. Or his size. Beastly. Roped and corded with muscles, gleaming with sweat and peppered with dirt. There’s no escaping him, not if I’m going to use his family’s flower shop for my events. But nothing is what it seems. And in the span of a heartbeat, my perfect life is turned inside out. They say the best way to get over somebody is to get under somebody new. When Kash offers his services to the cause, it sounds like the perfect plan. What’s not part of the plan? Falling in love with the gardener. But they were right—there’s no such thing as perfect. And I’m the fool who finds out the hard way. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ #GildedLily #StaciHart #BennetBrothers #topread #newrelease #mustread #instabooks #bookstagram #bookinstagram #romancereads #bookrecommendation #bookflatlay #bookstagrammersunite #bookgram #coverlove #bookblogger #booklover #bookblog #bookworm #bibliophile #romancenovel #lovestory #readromance #booksofinstagram #bookphotography #reviewcopy #nightbirdnovels

New Review on the Blog! Shelf Awareness by Katie Ashley --> https://amzn.to/2QL7Xez <-- Check out my #linktreeinprofile for all of my latest FULL reviews! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Review Snippet: Shelf Awareness was a sweet and entertaining read set in Green Valley, Tennessee and in the Penny Reid Universe. It was so much fun to see the quirky town showcased by the new Green Valley Library series and characters interconnected to our beloved Winstons. Finley and Zeke's romance was fun and lighthearted with some added drama and nerd shenanigans thrown in! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Blurb: After catching her husband in a compromising position, Finley Granger finds herself in a new hell: reentering the dating world. When she moves in with her grandmother, her great-aunt, and their best friend, Finley finds herself surrounded by a trio of well-meaning yet bumbling matchmakers. In spite of their efforts, Finley only has eyes for one person, and that’s Zeke Masters—the 6’4”, impossibly built, and ridiculously good-looking new man in town. Along with her nether regions, Finley’s journalistic spidey-senses tingle as to why he’s on sabbatical from Seattle. Is he on the lam or escaping a bad breakup? What's his story?!?! As Finley finds herself reluctantly drawn to the gorgeous IT guy, she can’t help but wonder: should she indulge in a rebound tryst with the mysterious Zeke, or has she finally met her match? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ #ShelfAwareness #KatieAshley #GreenValleyLibrary #SmartypantsRomance #instabooks #bookstagram #bookinstagram #bookstagrammersunite #bookgram #coverlove #bookblogger #booklover #bookblog #alwaysreading #bookworm #bibliophile #romancenovel #lovestory #readromance #booksofinstagram #bookphotography #reviewcopy #nightbirdnovels

New #BookReview on the Blog!! Wordless by Sabrina Stark --> https://amzn.to/34ha4KQ Check out my #linktreeinprofile for all of my latest FULL reviews! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Review Snippet: Wordless was a cute, slow burn romance filled with intrigue and an adorable couple who will make you smile over and over again. Becka and Jack's romance was funny, sweet and sexy all rolled into one enjoyable read. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Blurb: For someone so famous, he sure has a lot of secrets. He's Jack Ward, my billionaire boss, at least for the summer while I support his national book tour. But the funny thing is, the tour doesn't make much sense. The odd cities, the late-night excursions, the secrets simmering between us – they're all making me a little crazy, especially when he gives me one of those looks. You know the kind. He's up to something. I just know it. And I'd love to find out what. There's just one tiny problem. With his movie star looks and devious mind, he's distracting me to no end. And just maybe, I'm distracting him, too. But the worst thing? I'm pretty sure I like it. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ #Wordless #SabrinaStark #instabooks #bookstagram #bookobsessed #bookish #bookandcandle #bookinstagram #bookstagrammersunite #bookgram #coverlove #bookblogger #booklover #bookblog #bookworm #bibliophile #romancenovel #lovestory #readromance #booksofinstagram #bookphotography #reviewcopy #nightbirdnovels

Indefinite by Corinne Michaels This fabulous #signedpaperback copy was just ONE of the books included in the #fallbookbox from @bigbookloverbox! There’s still time to put in your #winterbookbox order TODAY, boxes start to ship NEXT WEEK!! ~~~ ~~~~~ Visit Now! --> https://www.willowwinterswrites.com/mystery-box To get your own Big Book Lover mystery box OR check out my #linktreeinbio for direct ordering!! ~~~ Blurb: The day he said he’d never love me is when I vowed Quinn Miller would never break my heart again. I wanted a family—but he wouldn’t give me that. As one of the top embryologists in the country, I’ve spent years creating babies in the lab for other people as my own dreams of motherhood fade. I’m done waiting. I decide to start the journey to parenthood alone. Then Quinn strolls back into my life, with all the finesse of a hurricane. I’m a fool to think I don’t want him anymore, and one reckless night of passion ends with me pregnant by the man I swore I’d never love again. Now he doesn’t just want my heart, he wants it all. The baby. Love. A life where we’re happy. But even as he promises me the future I always desired, I can’t help but fear that something will rip him away from me again. This time . . . indefinitely. ~~ ~~~~~ #CorinneMichaels #Indefinite #bookbox #bookswag #bigbookloverbox #signedbooks #bookmailisthebestmail #paperback #bookmail #bloggerlife #instabooks #bookstagram #bookinstagram #bookgram #willowwintersbookstagrammersunite #coverlove #blogger #bookblog #bookworm #romancenovel #readromance #booksofinstagram #bookphotography #bookstagrammer #nightbirdnovels

New 4.5 Star #BookReview on the Blog! In the Unlikely Event by L.J. Shen --> https://amzn.to/2reCOoU <-- Check out my #linktreeinprofile for all of my latest FULL reviews! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Review Snippet: In the Unlikely Event was a fascinatingly peculiar and all-around-fabulous read. Rory and Mal find the love of their lives at an impossible time, but separated by distance and eight long years, the connection they once shared is bound to have fizzled into nothing, or it's become just as unmanageable as ever... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Blurb: Sometimes you meet people who are out of this world, so you make them a part of yours. A one-night stand born from vengeance in a foreign land. An explosive chemistry neither of us could deny. We signed a contract on the back of a Boar’s Head Pub napkin that said if we ever met again, we would drop everything and be together. Eight years and thousands of miles later, he’s here. In New York. And he’s America’s music obsession. The intangible Irish poet who brings record executives to their knees. The blizzard in my perfect, unshaken snow globe. Last time we spoke, he was a beggar with no intention of becoming a king. But a king he became, and now I’m his servant. I’m not the same broken princess Malachy Doherty put back together with his callused hands. I have a career I love. A boyfriend I adore. An apartment, a roommate, a life. I changed. He changed, too. But Mal kept the napkin. Question is, will I keep my word? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ #ReadforFREE with #KindleUnlimited #LJShen #IntheUnlikelyEvent #ITUE #KU #topread #mustread #bookrecs #bookstagram #bookinstagram #secondchanceromance #bookstagrammersunite #bookgram #coverlove #bookblogger #bookobsessed #booklover #bookblog #bookworm #bibliophile #romancenovel #lovestory #readromance #booksofinstagram #bookphotography #reviewcopy #nightbirdnovels

New #BookReview on the Blog!! Violent Triumphs by Jessica Hawkins --> https://amzn.to/2O5DwOc <-- Check out my #linktreeinprofile for all of my latest FULL reviews! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Review Snippet: Violent Triumphs is the highly anticipated conclusion to the spellbinding White Monarch trilogy, and just when you think that their HEA is finally within reach, this story will carve your heart out just a tiny bit more. Natalia and Cristiano's final chapter is filled with suspense, drama and FINALLY the scorching hot sex we have all been waiting for!! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Blurb: I’ve become a queen to the forsaken, a leader to thieves, and the wife of a man who instills fear in all who cross his path. He was the husband I didn’t want. Now, I can’t fathom life without my king. I should’ve been ready for anything. Like the caterpillar that feeds on poison during metamorphosis, I was raised in the dangerous world of cartel crime. But nothing could’ve prepared me for Cristiano de la Rosa, his brother’s poison, or the Calavera cartel. This is still a story about a love strong enough to topple households, unite enemies, and divide brothers. Resilient enough to bring down those who would try to destroy it . . . and selfless enough to make the ultimate sacrifice. But I was warned, and so were you. Death’s day always comes. This time, it will find what was once a caterpillar is now a butterfly—and hell hath no fury like the White Monarch. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ #ViolentTriumphs #JessicaHawkins #WhiteMonarch #mustread #instabooks #bookstagram #bookinstagram #bookstagrammersunite #bookgram #coverlove #bookblogger #booklover #bookblog #bookandcandle #igreads #romancebooks #bookworm #bibliophile #romancenovel #lovestory #readromance #booksofinstagram #bookphotography #reviewcopy #nightbirdnovels

New 5 Star #BookReview on the Blog! Dangerous Games by J.T. Geissinger --> https://amzn.to/2Kx0mMQ <-- Check out my #linktreeinprofile for all of my latest FULL reviews! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Review Snippet: Dangerous Games was the heart wrenching conclusion to the engrossing Dangerous Beauty trilogy, that is guaranteed to leave you gasping and desperate for more from this shadowed and dangerous world. Eva and Naz's love story is far from settled, and just when they have reached a point of ultimate happiness, the unthinkable happens, and things go from bad to much, much worse... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Blurb: The game isn’t over until somebody dies. Eva knows what it’s like to be imprisoned by a man’s twisted obsessions. But after running, hiding, and finding refuge in a rescuer’s arms, she’s suddenly pulled back into the black hole of her past. Kidnapped by her sadistic ex, Dimitri, and with the love of her life left for dead, Eva is facing down the worst of her demons alone. If Dimitri wants to play sick games, Eva’s ready. She already knows how dark they can get. But despite her fears, she hasn’t been abandoned. Naz is in hot pursuit. And the last thing Dimitri expects is for a dead man to come calling. For Eva and Naz, worlds apart yet bound by fierce and unbreakable passion, it’s time to beat the devil. To do it they’ll have to be just as ruthless, seductive, and cunning. With every pulse of the heart, they must risk it all to play Dimitri’s final game to its harrowing end—and win. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ #DangerousGames #JTGeissinger #DangerousBeauty #5stars #topread #KindleUnlimited #newrelease #mustread #instabooks #bookstagram #bookinstagram #bookstagrammersunite #bookgram #romanticsuspense #coverlove #bookblogger #booklover #bookblog #romancereads #bookrecommendation #lovestory #readromance #booksofinstagram #bookphotography #reviewcopy #nightbirdnovels
