“When Charlotte Pringle Frost won The Party Planning Committee three years ago, she gained name-recognition, money, and enough wealthy clients to keep her Beverly Hills party-planning business running for months. But when her father used all her winnings to pay off his gambling debts, he left her with nothing but the clothes on her back and a damaged reputation. Now she’s living in Arkansas, was just fired from her party store cashier job, and can’t figure out how it all went wrong.
When Alexandria impulsively hires some random contestant she remembers from an old reality game show to plan the wedding, all Lance sees is a disaster in the making. It’s bad enough that the wedding is in four weeks and his sister wants the whole process aired live, but this Charlotte chick is cuter than he expected, and she’s messing with his head. Suddenly he’s thinking about the future, and nothing could possibly be worse than that.
Nothing, that is, until Alexandria tells them her ridiculous wedding theme.
As the only sane people around, it’s up to Lance and Charlotte to make this disastrous wedding a success, a nearly impossible feat that soon has them both wondering…
Even if the wedding doesn’t work out, could they?”

Title: At First Hate Series: Coastal Chronicles #2 Author: K. A. Linde Genre: Contemporary Romance Publisher: K. A. Linde Inc. Pub Date: August 24, 2021 Rating: 5 Stars
Our thoughts...
K. A. Linde has done it again, she is the queen on angst! She never disappoints on delivering a page turner that has me at the edge of my seat turning the pages as fast as I can.
New York Times bestselling author, K. Bromberg, is back with a heartfelt, enemies to lovers romance and a hero who redeems himself to steal your heart . . .
He was the one-night stand that didn't exactly go as planned. Now he's standing before me as if he's never seen me naked, telling my manager he'll take the job. Reluctantly.
Finn Sanderson.
Sports agent extraordinaire. Handsome as hell. The man who just signed on to control my every move.
Sure, I'm to blame for my recent bad press, but when your whole life has been so regimented, isn't it normal to want to live it up a little?
But when the partying stops and the grief I'm running from has nowhere else to hide, reality sets in. Turns out, Finn's the only person I have left to help pick up the pieces. The only person to call.
Staying with him is a temporary thing. But when our fighting turns into laughter and our friendship turns into something more, will I fight for a man who swears he's hard to love? Or is it wiser to walk away? To follow the plan?
* * * Offering to help with a client is a way to repay a long overdue IOU to my mentor. Little did I know she was the woman who left my hotel room at four in the morning.
Stevie Lancaster.
Top-seeded US tennis player. Good girl gone bad. The woman currently about to throw her career away. And now my problem.
The compensation to "babysit" her is great, but she isn't worth my trouble.
But when her world falls apart and she has no one else to turn to, I try to be a good guy by gathering her up and hiding her from the media's eye.
Now she's in my house, in my space, and even though I'm enjoying the side benefits of this unexpected arrangement, surely she's better to leave when the time comes and follow her destiny. Because I'm not the man she needs. Not the man she could love. Right?

Our thoughts...
Holly Renee is a new to me author and she did not disappoint. She had me up way past my bedtime needing to know what was going to happen. The Taste of an Enemy had it all and kept my intrigued.
I am looking forward to The Deceit of the Devil. I need to know how things end for Allie and Carson.
I’m a tad late to the game and started the Mason Family series with Relentless, book 4. I couldn’t get enough of
Oliver and Shaye. This book is laugh out loud funny with the perfect balance of
angst, and drama. 100% a page turner!

New York Times Bestselling author Corinne Michaels returns to Willow Creek Valley in this stunning surprise baby/unrequited love romance.
I was totally over Joshua Parkerson.
Sure, I had a teenage crush on him way back when--and everyone knew it--but he never saw me as anything but his little brother's friend, the girl who got tongue-tied any time he walked into a room.
I had long ago accepted the fact that his strong arms would never hold me, his lush lips would never claim mine, and his blue eyes would never see me as anything more than who I used to be.
But now he's back in Willow Creek Valley, and there's a brand-new spark between us--even he can't fight it. Our chemistry is explosive, and every time we're together, I swear I can feel the earth shake.
It doesn't mean anything... how could it? I'm over him.
Until I see that little pink plus sign, and the earth stops turning completely.
Now I want it all again, a life with him. But Joshua built walls around his heart for a reason, and his secrets haunt him.
How can I show him that the ghosts of his past don't have to define our new family's future?

"Some mistakes can't be forgiven or left behind. Some mistakes, leave a mark on us and we have to carry their consequences forever."
Hazel
Six years ago, my life fell apart and ever since I was living within those broken pieces.
Until I met him.
The moment I walked into the Starbucks on my first day of work and laid eyes on him, everything changed.
He saw me.
For the first time in three years, I wasn't invisible. I've grown used to staying on the sidelines and living in the shadows until I met him.
Aiden Hitchings was my father's favorite player. Our university's soccer star. The one who lived in the spotlight.
I knew I shouldn't have tempted faith, but falling for him wasn't a choice.
History was about to repeat itself, and I couldn't do anything to stop it.
Aiden
Last year of college was going to be epic. Juggling our NCAA Championship, coursework and my part-time job at Starbucks wasn't easy, but it was all going to pay off once I signed my professional contract.
That was before she walked in.
The hazel-eyed girl with a sharp tongue, the one who always blended into the background, was staring right back at me. The Coach's daughter, one I should have avoided at any cost but kept being drawn to.
She shattered my carefully built-up world and inked herself deep into my soul.
But she carried a secret with her that stood between us, slowly breaking us.
And for the first time in my life, I lost control and I felt helpless.
Mia is a Young Adult and Contemporary Romance author.

Our thoughts...
I can’t remember the last time I read a book that I knew know matter how tired I was I couldn’t stop reading. This was that book, it was all consuming and heart breaking. Just thinking about it now brings tears to my eyes. Jewel E. Ann never disappoints and this book was so much more than I ever dreamed it could be. The narrator for this book was perfect and really brought the story to life for me. For Lucy has been a book that has been on my mind long after I finished reading it. I loved listening to this book and having it read to me.
I am not going to ruin it for anyone. I will say make sure you have tissues handy. You will be so consumed with these characters and so heartbroken with them. For Lucy will hold you captive until you finish the last page.
This book was phenomenal! I absolutely loved it and the journey these characters take to get where they need to be. This is a must read and a top read for 2021. Words can’t express how much I loved this book and the emotional journey it took me on.
