ARC Review: Some Sort of Crazy by Melanie Harlow


I love Melanie Harlow's writing style and I couldn't wait to read her newest book, Some Sort of Crazy. She always writes sexy stories that are emotional and funny, and I just know that I am in for a good story every time with her. This book was a ton of fun to read, and I couldn't get enough of Miles and Natalie. I highly recommend this book and can't wait for more! Some Sort of Crazy is the second book in Harlow's Happy Crazy Love series, but it is easily read as a standalone novel. 

Natalie Nixon had her life all planned out until a psychic told her that a man would change everything for her. Being a skeptic, Natalie blew it off thinking that she already had it all with a new house, successful bakery and longtime boyfriend that she planned to marry. But Miles Haas came crashing back into her life. Though Miles is no stranger, she finds her life changing and it all centers around him. Suddenly she is seeing him in a completely new light. But can she give up her comfortable life for a chance at something with Miles when he has always been the playboy that doesn't want to settle down? 

These two were so cute together. I loved their friendship and banter, and it was so much fun to watch them. They were feisty and flirty, and while things had never happened between them they had so much chemistry there. I really loved that this friends to lovers wasn't just a flip of the switch from platonic feelings to romantic feelings. These two had always had feelings for one another, but circumstances had kept them from ever exploring it. Their story felt very natural and the transition to more felt like it was really a long time coming. Miles was charismatic and hilarious, and he was exactly what Natalie needed. I wasn't sure I was going to like her at first since she was a bit more rigid and seemed to be one for a carefully planned life. But Miles brought out the fun side to her as well as the dirty side, and I was so glad he could loosen her up. She quickly became a heroine that I could root for and I found myself liking her a ton. These two were super sexy together, and I never wanted their story to end. 

Overall, I really enjoyed this book. I have liked everything I have read from Melanie Harlow, but this just might be my favorite of hers. While her stories are always sexy, Some Sort of Crazy had a lightness to it as well that just made it impossible to put down. Some books are just a lot of fun to read and you enjoy every word, and that was Some Sort of Crazy for me. If you are a fan of Melanie Harlow, this book is an absolute must read. If you haven't yet read anything from her, I think this is the perfect place to start. Some Sort of Crazy is sexy and fun, and Miles and Natalie's story is one that shouldn't be missed.

Feature and Giveaway: Steal Me by Lauren Layne



IN HOT PURSUIT

Being a cop might be in Anthony Moretti's blood, but protecting and serving the city of New York has always been more than just the family business. If that means his love life stays locked up, well then that's just another sacrifice made in the line of duty. That is, until he sets eyes on the gorgeous new waitress at The Darby Diner and suddenly Anthony's morning coffee is leaving him a whole lot more hot and bothered than usual.

Though waitressing at The Darby isn't exactly Maggie Walker's dream job, it pays the bills and gives her time to work on her novel. Now if only she could stop fantasizing about gorgeous Anthony Moretti every time he sits down at her table, she'd really be in great shape. But when he needs her help identifying a criminal threatening The Darby—and Maggie recognizes her ex-husband—she fears her fresh start might be a pipe dream. Faster than a New York minute, Maggie and Anthony find themselves in one perilous pursuit that only gets hotter with each and every rule-breaking kiss.

Feature: Take Me All The Way by Toni Blake


You can’t go too far when you’re fighting for love…

USA Today bestselling contemporary romance author Toni Blake continues her new, heartwarming series set in the beachside town of Coral Cove. This time the town troublemaker, Jeremy Sheridan, gets his chance at love!

Tamra Day swore off men a long time ago. Her art, her friends, and her garden have always been enough…until now. Suddenly Tamra is aching for a connection. Unfortunately, Coral Cove’s most eligible bachelor is the troublemaker who’s building the mini-golf course she’s designing. Brusque and sarcastic, he’s made it a habit of annoying Tamra. But more infuriating is the fact that Tamra can’t help noticing how sexy he is.

They call him a war hero, but Jeremy Sheridan knows better. Still haunted by painful memories from Afghanistan, he’s just hoping for a fresh start. So far, the only problem is his new boss, Tamra, a control freak who’s easy on the eyes—and way too fun to tease.

Despite their differences, Tamra and Jeremy aren’t as alone as they think they are. And together, with a little Coral Cove magic, they’ll discover how good it feels to embrace a bright new future.

ARC Review: Heath by Melissa Foster


Heath is the second book in the Wild Boys After Dark series by Melissa Foster. Though each book is a standalone story, this series is like her contemporary series where the characters are interconnected. I love how she always writes about these large families and their friends. While each book and set of characters are unique, they are all ultimately about love and family. There is just something about being able to follow an entire family through a series and getting to know each of the characters so well because Melissa Foster gives them each their own chance to shine. She is one of my favorite authors for a reason, and I just love her books. The Wild Boys After Dark series is a sexier series than her Love In Bloom series, and I am really loving these books. While I absolutely loved Logan's book, Heath has now taken over as my favorite! 

Dr. Heath Wild doesn't do commitment or strings of any type. With his job and family obligations, he has enough going on in his life. When he needs to fulfill his needs he finds a woman for the night or goes to a select few women that know the score. But when he meets Ally Jenner at a medical conference and they spend one sexy night together, he knows that there is something different about her. Heath and Ally meant to spend one night only with each other, but it quickly becomes more after a single phone call changes everything.

I could not have loved Heath more. He was sweet and sexy, and I loved his honesty. The thing that I love about Melissa's heroes is that they don't play games. They are always open about what they are looking for, and they don't mess around. Though Heath had never been interested in dating, he knew that Ally was different and he treated her that way from the start. He told her what he was looking for and they discussed everything. It was so refreshing to see them communicate their feelings and their fears, and the fact that they could work through them together is what made their connection so real. These two were so good for one another, and I felt like they understood each other right away because they could talk about everything. Ally was smart and kind, and she could hold her own. It was so much fun to watch these two together, and I loved their banter. The chemistry was there right away and they were so steamy together. But these two were so much more than that and it all felt very natural. 

Overall, this is probably one of my favorite books ever from Melissa Foster. She really does just seem to get better with each book she writes, and I have no idea how she continues to top herself with each new story. I thoroughly enjoyed this book though, and I had such a great time reading Ally and Heath's story. While Logan's book was more suspenseful and serious, Heath and Ally's story had a lighter feel to it. This story was even sexier than Logan's was, and I couldn't get enough of Heath and Ally together. This series is shaping up to be one of my absolute favorites, and I really think that this series has something for everyone. If you are looking for something sexy and fun, Heath is definitely the book for you. I can't wait for Jackson and Cooper's books, and I am getting really excited for the Bad boys as well. I just know that I am going to love them, and as I have said before you can't go wrong with anything by Melissa Foster.
