GOODREADS

Cattle are simple.

You take care of them; they take care of you.

Women, not so much.

They’re fickle, stubborn and emotional.

They’re time consuming and unapologetic.

And yet, I can’t live without her.

She’s passion and sin.

Heartache and innocence.

Isabella Sharp is every man’s weakness.

She’ll bring me to my knees.

And in return I’ll worship her with my dying breath.

I am Cross Malcolm

After the secrets and through the lies…

Past the darkness and into the light…

I get what’s mine.

Blog Tour w/Review: The McAvoy Sisters Book of Secrets by Molly Fader

I’ll be honest: the main reason I wanted to read this book is that I share a last name with the titular sisters. And I will admit, it was kind of odd to see that name repeated in the book. But that uniqueness faded as I became absorbed in the story.

Lindy left town over 17 years prior, which caused her sister, Delia, to take over the family business – something Delia never wanted. However, when their mother, Meredith, suffers a “brain event,” Lindy returns home. Her return is the catalyst for long-buried secrets to surface, forcing the sisters, Meredith, and Delia’s family to face the events that caused the family rift.

I realize that this description makes it sound like a simple family fight that the sisters need to get over, but it is so much more than that. The author draws so many parallels. One example is how Delia’s daughter, Brin, looks like Lindy and acts exactly how Lindy acted at the same age. Another involves a boy who Brin likes who is similar to a mystery boy from the past. It quickly becomes apparent that there is something deeper and more sinister that occurred to cause the family to split.

The descriptions of the repercussions from Meredith’s brain event are extremely well-described, and the imagery invoked in several passages made her experiences feel especially real. (They reminded me of dad’s health when it began to fail). But what I liked the most about the story is that the author didn’t get bogged down with minutiae and meaningless events; everything in the plot had a purpose (even though some weren’t clear until the very end).

I appreciate the attention to tying events together, which allowed the reader to draw conclusions (albeit sometimes incorrect ones) on their own.

And about those incorrect conclusions; I especially liked how the author planted a few details that kept me guessing up until the last page of the book. Although this wasn’t a mystery or psych thriller, it was more engaging than some books in those genres. It was just that well-written.

As I look over this review, I realize that the book is many things: a family drama, a cautionary tale, a mystery…but it’s all so subtle that it ultimately is just a superb story. Don’t miss this one.

The McAvoy Sisters Book of Secrets by Molly Fader
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I wasn’t sure what to expect from this book at first. What I got was a heartfelt story about family secrets and the lengths one might go to protect the people they love. I thought that everything from the characters to the plot to the setting was carefully thought out and well-described. I liked that I only got bits and pieces of the backstory as the plot progressed. The impact of the secrets that had been kept hidden coming to light was not unlike a storm crashing on the lake. The small mystery propelling the plot, and the role each of the McAvoy women played made this into a page-turner that I finished in a day. I highly recommend this compelling book. For more thoughts, please visit my blog at Fireflies and Free Kicks Fiction Reviews. This review was written based on a complimentary, pre-release digital ARC of the book.

New Release: Making Up

Here is some great info on the new release from Helena Hunting, and be sure to come back for my stop on the Blog Tour on July 19 – I’ll have a juicy review for ya!

“I LOVED both Cosy and Griffin! This story was ABSOLUTE PERFECTION!”- Kendall Ryan, New York Times bestselling author

Making Up an all-new laugh-out-loud romantic comedy from New York Times bestselling author Helena Hunting is available now!

Cosy Felton is great at her job—she knows just how to handle the awkwardness that comes with working at an adult toy store. So when the hottest guy she’s ever seen walks into the shop looking completely overwhelmed, she’s more than happy to turn on the charm and help him purchase all of the items on his list.

Griffin Mills is using his business trip in Las Vegas as a chance to escape the broken pieces of his life in New York City. The last thing he wants is to be put in charge of buying gag gifts for his friend’s bachelor party. Despite being totally out of his element, and mortified by the whole experience, Griffin is pleasantly surprised when he finds himself attracted to the sales girl that helped him.

As skeptical as Cosy may be of Griffin’s motivations, there’s something about him that intrigues her. But sometimes what happens in Vegas doesn’t always stay in Vegas and when real life gets in the way, all bets are off. Filled with hilariously awkward situations and enough sexual chemistry to power Sin City, Making Up is the next standalone in the Shacking Up world.

Release Blitz: The Kissing Contract

It’s now available!!! ICYMI, here’s my 5-star review.

The Kissing Contract, an all-new irresistible romance from USA Today bestselling author Amy Andrews, is available now!

Marshall Dyson wants one thing and one thing only: to raze his grandfather’s island to the ground. Everything is ready to go––except for the freakin’ bunnies! Hundreds of the furry critters hopping about and multiplying before his eyes. And then there’s the American Bunny League, along with one distractingly beautiful veterinarian, taking him to court to save them…

Dr. Augusta “Gus” North can’t believe the grumpy–and annoyingly hot–builder she’s facing in court cares more about demo-ing some cabin than the lives of 200 bunnies. But when the judge orders Marshall to stay on the island and help her rehome the rabbits – the entire month – she knows they’re going to need to lay some ground rules.

Like, for example, absolutely no kissing. Might as well go ahead and get that in writing. Sure it’s on a napkin, but that still counts.

How hard could it be to keep their hands off each other amidst all the fighting? Surprisingly, harder than wrangling 200 bunnies…

Release Blitz and Review: Hooked – A Love Story on 7th & Main

Hooked: A Love Story on 7th and Main, an all-new standalone opposites attract Contemporary Romance by Elizabeth Hunter is NOW LIVE!

She’s in high heels; he wears hiking boots. Can these two opposites make romance in Metlin work?

Tayla McKinnon is not a small town girl. The fashion blogger moved to Metlin with two goals in mind: help her friend start a book store and have a little fun. A year later, Tayla has made new friends, successfully launched INK, and is ready for a new challenge. Too bad she can’t get a certain rock-climbing, comic book geek off her mind.

Jeremy Allen has been playing the long game with Tayla, even though the avid outdoorsman was certain she was the one from the minute he set eyes on her. They may have different tastes, but their chemistry is undeniable.

When a job opportunity from a new fashion start-up lands in her inbox, Tayla takes it as a sign. She’s not meant for a small town, even though her best friend and her inconvenient crush are trying to convince her otherwise.

Jeremy can’t believe Tayla would be willing to leave her new life behind, but maybe he’s been playing it too cool. Summer in Metlin can sizzle, which gives Jeremy an excuse to turn up the heat.

Hooked is a stand-alone, opposites-attract romance in the Love Stories on 7th and Main series by Elizabeth Hunter, USA Today Bestselling author of INK.

Hooked by Elizabeth Hunter
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

The premise of this book seemed interesting: big city girl in a small town tries to deny that the small town is where she belongs. I loved Metlin, and I loved the residents. What I didn’t love was Tayla. She turned me off when she ignored Emmie regarding the costumes for the middle school book club, and she never really got back into my good graces after that. I found myself wishing for someone better for Jeremy. I’m sure other people will like how she realizes her love, but she rubbed me the wrong way, and it tainted the book for me. Three stars for Gus and the other residents of Metlin. This review was written based on a complimentary pre-release digital ARC.
