I will always read this author. Her version of vampires are my favorite. Nalla starts after having a disagreement with Bitty. Because of that she runs into Nate at the bar. I loved that Nalla was her own brand of crazy like her father. I loved that Nate would realize forgiveness was like love. I just love these books.

I loved Artemis & Apollo. They had an amazing connection since childhood. Artemis is a hunter, but more than that Apollo needs her. When she is threatened, he comes out to protect her. When he gets threatened, believe me she goes to protect him. The whole family gets involved. I love this family!

James & Aubrey are hot! I loved being back in their world. He plans a trip to Belize, and makes some memories they won’t forget. They hit a snag when they got home. It causes James to rethink some things. I agree with them life is too short to waste

I absolutely adored Rhett. He was so sweet and determined to win her heart. Willow was a strong woman that didn’t fully believe in herself, but Rhett made her see her value. This book was a coming of age story where the boy falls first. They are so young, but when you know, you know. Loved it!

Who doesn’t want their Prince Charming? Well, this one gives us the King. I loved this one. Anika was forging her own path.  Her boss asks for favor. Meeting Luca was never on her radar, but it was great timing. I loved Luca. He was down to earth, and committed to his country. This was a grown up fairytale. It was snarky & funny. Can I get one of those danishes?

I LOVED this book! I didn’t see any of it coming. Evie didn’t let her anxiety stop her. At 14 she suffered an incident that no one should see. It changed her.  She didn’t see Lincoln & Lucy coming. I loved Lucy! Evie’s life is changed once again. This book was so good. It had a great plot twist I did not expect, the ending was perfect.

The Accardi twins are spicy spicy spicy. Joshua & Gia have so much chemistry it burns off the pages. I loved that they had been friends since childhood. Joshua had been burned by an ex, and was closed off emotionally. Gia brought him back to life. I loved how strong she was. She was confident in herself. I love that the story continues, and we get more of all of them. Bring it on!

Oh my goodness! I knew I was going to love Caleb & Lili’s book, but it was off the charts! Sweet & spicy with so much chemistry they melted my Kindle. These Accardi twins were the best!

I loved this one! Ana was so uptight, and Julian was laidback. They don’t realize how far they are going to go to try and win the CEO seat. I loved that her father wanted nothing more than to have a relationship with her. I loved that his mother was so understanding. This one was sweet and spicy. Also, baseball games… never sounded so good!

This series… is one of my most favorite of all for Contemporary Romance. It hits all the notes. Matt & Brooklyn had so much tragedy. She had suffered so much loss. Matt wasn’t really living without her. I didn’t want this series to end, but I needed their HEA. This one was funny. Rob was hysterical. It was like he had 16 years of foolishness he needed to get out of his system. I don’t know if I’m the only one, but I need Tanner & Nigel’s backstories, but I need to know everything! The babies and Jacob were so cute. There were tears, giggles, and full on belly laughing. These characters write their names on your heart, and don’t let go!
