Emancipating Andie by Priscilla Glenn

4.5 out of 5 stars

A little gem:
What a little gem this one turn out to be. Love Chase and Andie and their playful banter. Together they are stuck on a 2 say road trip with each other. Though it wasn't all laughter as they are stuck in a love triangle with Andie's boyfriend and Chase's best friend, Colin. I felt was dealt with exact how I liked.

Love Chase:
Didn't think I could love another Chase since Taking chances but now I do. LOVE Chase!!! Love the writing style!!! I wish I could give it a 5 stars but it was missing an epilogue. But otherwise LOVED IT!!!

Andie to Chase: "why do you look so nervous?...This isn't your first time, is it?" Haha

Trying to Score by Toni Aleo

4.5 out of 5 stars

Plot:
Another between 4* and 5*. Second in the assassins series and this one follows a second chance romance of Lucas, the ice hockey player and Fallon, with trust issues. I feel like I've read this kind of storyline half a dozen times already by various other authors, nonetheless I could feel the electricity between the couple.

Second in the series:
Second in Toni Aleo's assassins series and I was not disappointed. Similar to the first book, the ending I knew what was going to happen. But you kind of know and expect the HEA these two deserve. I do find some second chance romances a bit samey but here I love this couple. I would highly recommend if you love your smut romance. Loved it!


Taking shots by Toni Aleo

4.5 out of 5 stars

Plot:
So so close to a 5*... Shea, an ice hockey player and Elli, a photographer with insecurities. Loved the connection with this couple, how they fell in love, their ups and downs. Towards the end I could predict what was going to happen before it did and I just wanted to stop it. 

Heroine and Hero
Elli just....arh...!!! What is she thinking towards the end? If I could I would have shaked some sense into her. Got to love Shea though...such a sweetie, made my heart melt,

Author:
This was the first book by Toni Aleo so I wasn't sure how her writing style is like. Turns out I love it!!! The story isn't heavy on drama, it was rather sweet with a bit of angst but the way she wrote it made me gripped from start til finish. Well worth the read x

A different blue by Amy Harmon

4.5 stars out of 5

This book was a little bit different to my norm. Opening up and trying to uncover her past, Blue befriends her British teacher, Wilson. There was MANY 'did I just read that right shockers' as well as some funny banter between Wilson and Blue. The only problem was I love my romance and I felt like there wasn't enough of it otherwise this could have easily have been a 5*.

"I keep wishing you had a better life...A different life. But a different life would have made you a different blue"
