Cecily Black | 173 comments I finished Beautiful Bastard (Beautiful Bastard, #1) by Christina Lauren 09/18/16 I really enjoyed it, I had it on my TBR list for a while. Made me laugh out loud a few times and the sex was HOT!!

I finished Full Moon (Second Chances, #2) by Mari Carr 09/19/16 Another I had on my TBR for a while and a series I really want to continue. It kind of reminded me S.E.C.R.E.T (Secret, #1) by L. Marie Adeline with the whole bucket list thing. Great Read!

Sandra | 712 comments I read Against the Wall (Maverick Montana, #1) by Rebecca Zanetti today. I really enjoyed it. Nothing like a sexy cowboy lawyer to pass the hours in work!

Elke (ejurca) | 1810 comments ThatEzi,

Read my 2nd pick Passions of a Gentleman (Gentlemen of Honor, #3) by Rose Gordon - it was really good! Flowed perfectly...plus it has been a while since I read a HR!

Will try for pick #3!

Zorina | 236 comments Hi Cher,

I finished Lover at Last on 09/11/2016 and I was disappointed by the book, a couple of reasons. First I don't like men crying, it makes me feel awkward, there is a lot of men crying. Second the love story was hidden in the book, it felt like a second plot not the main plot. Third the whole book felt like a prologue to the next one. I liked catching up with my BDB guys.

I'm sorry it wasn't for you. I won't like my hero to be a crybaby either. Hope your next read is better.

Lol! I love being an evil corruptor. :) And that's probably my least favorite in that series.


message 161: by Donna (new)

Donna | 250 comments Hi Valerie! Thanks for the picks. I've read both Weekend Warriors and Slave to Sensation. I enjoyed them both and I'm looking forward to reading more in the two series. I'm hoping to read another one off the list before the end of the month.

And Shelby I agree with you on Fantasy Lover being one of my least favorite books in the Dark-Hunter series.

I did finish my 4th pick for the month, Comfort and Joy, and I really liked it, especially the twist that happened near the end.

I hadnt read the prior two books that you read but I enjoyed the Molly Harper.
Glad you enjoyed your picks this month

Thank you for my picks. Dirty English (English, #1) by Ilsa Madden-Mills was one of my favorite reads of the month. I am about to start Rushing the Goal (Assassins, #8) by Toni Aleo on audio, so I hope to get in


Danielle  Gypsy Soul (afdaniellet) | 1091 comments Finished The Score (Off-Campus, #3) by Elle Kennedy as well. It was cute but not my favorite of the series. It was too much like the other books: hookup, get serious, break up, make up.

Kaity | 492 comments Hi again, fleurette!

I was hoping to fit in more but this month wasn't great for reading, grrr! I did manage to read a third pick which I enjoyed. I'm finally seeing why people adore Harry Dresden.
Thanks again for all of the picks! I'm keeping your new-to-me picks on my radar for sure :)

Grave Peril (The Dresden Files, #3) by Jim Butcher
