Book Review - Once Upon a Bad Boy

From Goodreads: NEVER SAY NEVER
Sadie Gold is ready to take her career to the next level with the role of a lifetime. Finally, she can shake her reputation as a pretty face with more wealth and connections than talent. But Sadie is not prepared for the wild turn her own life is about to take. The man in charge of training Sadie for her most demanding role yet is none other than her first real boyfriend—the one who took her heart and ran away.

WHEN IT COMES TO LOVE
Bo Ibarra is as good-looking and irresistible as ever. Maybe even more so, now that everything once worked against them—Sadie’s pampered and privileged upbringing and Bo’s childhood in a family struggling to make ends meet—is in the past. But the future is still unwritten…and getting there, together, means coming clean about painful secrets and slashing through nasty tabloid rumors while trying to control the attraction that crackles between them. Maybe it’s finally time for them to walk off into the sunset and into a true and lasting love?


From Goodreads


My Thoughts: This is so good. The characters are well-thought out, intricate, and manage to both grow and still stay true to themselves. The story line is fantastic and had twists I did not see coming at first, which is great! I loved how the characters from the previous books were woven into this story in such a natural way, it never felt like "hey, remember these people!!" This is such a fun, enjoyable, relatable book - which is really saying something considering the careers of the two main characters!


I received an advanced copy of this from NetGalley but all thoughts are my own.

Book Review - Smitten by the Brit

From Goodreads: DEFINITELY, MAYBE...OR LOVE, ACTUALLY?

English professor Bonnie Blythe expects her life to play out like her favorite novels, especially now that her long-term boyfriend has finally proposed. So when a shocking discovery leads Bonnie to end her engagement, she decides to close the book on love. But the plot thickens when a brand-new character enters the scene—and quickens Bonnie's heart.

With his brilliant blue eyes, sexy accent, and irresistible charm, Theo Wharton is like a romantic hero straight out of a Jane Austen novel. When fate places Bonnie in England for a summer—conveniently close to Theo—she realizes a hot friends-with-benefits fling is exactly what she needs to start a fresh chapter. Just as Bonnie begins to believe she's falling in love, an eye-opening revelation into Theo's life makes Bonnie feel like she's wandered into one of her favorite books. Will Bonnie have the courage to risk her heart and turn the page with the dashing Brit to find her true happy ending after all?

My Thoughts: I really loved this. Bonnie and Theo are such great characters who really compliment each other well. And as a fellow Austen lover I adore that Theo is such a great British gent toward Bonnie, and that she has a chance to live out some of her book-related dreams.

This book is super fun and I could not put it down. Highly recommend this!
