#BookReview FRIENDSHIP ON FIRE by Melissa Foster #romance #bradens

Friendship on Fire by Melissa Foster

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Josh Braden is my favorite Braden so far. I guess it's because of his inherent honesty and willingness to examine issues from every angle, even when his gut is against it. I also like that he is more intellectual and not as brash or gruff as the other Bradens. Josh considers what he says and how others feel, and sometimes it might make him seem passive, but he is no fool.

Riley and Josh's romance was fast and sweet, and I really enjoye...

#BookReview HAPPY ENDINGS by Chantel Rhondeau McCallister's Paradise Book 1 #romance

Happy Endings by Chantel Rhondeau

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


This story really did have a Happy Ending! I love everything about McCallister's Paradise. It is a vacation spot (fictional) near the Hawaiian Islands where people can go to relax and get away from their troubles.

They have a spa, snorkeling, horseback riding, and lots of beautiful nature.

Only thing is, the people who work there, well, they WORK, and can't enjoy the surroundings because they have jobs to do, and no one takes work more ser...

#BookReview POINT OF RETREAT by Colleen Hoover #romance #YA

Point of Retreat by Colleen Hoover

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Well, I'm really far behind all my friends on this book and while I loved Slammed because it felt new and intriguing and I loved Lake's voice, this one paled in contrast.

Will was responsible and trying to do the right thing, but he seemed unable to handle being in a relationship with the more fragile Lake. She had just lost her mother to a lingering illness, said all the goodbyes and is now responsible for her younger brother.

Yes, their...
