Getting Hot with the Scot is a whirlwind roadtrip romance with a just-a-fling beginning and a swoonworthy hero. Reader, I loved it.
This is a very Suzanne set of mini-reviews, with her thoughts on I Flipping Love You, Can't Escape Love, and Hunted.
Do you ever read a book that makes you want to just devour an author's entire backlist? And then you discover that they have 1,000 books in said backlist? Welcome to my experience reading An Affair in Winter, by Jess Michaels.
I need to open with something that influenced my opinion on this book quite considerably: I’m really bad with names. I have read books, absolutely loved them and then had to look up the names of the main characters a day later. Sometimes I read something, take a break, come back and go “Wait? Who’s that guy?” - especially when the book has a lot of characters and/or they have names that are very foreign to me. And Sunkissed Feathers & Severed Ties has a lot of fantasy names.
In the Austen Playbook, Parker delights with a clever opposites-attract romance.
To write this post, I did a little GoodReads research to find out if I had reviewed the three books in this series yet. I'm a little disappointed in myself, if I'm honest.
Book Five in Cathy Yardley’s Fandom Hearts series, Playing Doctor, finally treats us to Cressida’s story. I think my wife and I have been eagerly rooting for this Frost sister’s Happily Ever After since at least Book Two. The Frost sisters all live together and jointly run a bookstore (and now fandom destination) in Snoqualmie, WA. Cressida, because of her acute agoraphobia, is far more sheltered than her sisters. As the book opens,one of her coping mechanisms is to find adventure vicariously on internet message boards devoted to finding the treasure hidden by an eccentric author of one of her favorite books. Working with her internet crush (and hero of Playing Doctor), Noah, she sets off in the family RV to have her own real-life adventure.
Two disclosures before I start this review:
1) I'm not sure I'm able to be objective about it since my response is so strongly emotional
2) There's a bit of a spoiler in the second paragraph but not really a spoiler? You'll see.
If you...
- love girls or the tv show Younger
- are interested in the book publishing or publicity industry
- want a book that's definitely in 2019 --with dating apps and influencers in book marketing plans
- want to read women in business being bosses and also super kind and supportive and generous to each other
This is a book for you.
