REVIEW: Love Sincerely Yours by Meghan Quinn & Sara Ney!


Dear Mister...**strike out** no, too formal.

Hey there sweet cheeks *strike out* no, too forward.



To whom it may concern,

Full disclosure; before we move forward with this email, I would like it to be known that I have consumed an adequate amount of alcoholic beverages to intoxicate myself tonight. Three margaritas, two shots, and one beer—because it was free.

I think it’s important to be open and honest with your co-workers, don’t you?

So here I am, being honest. Drunk but honest. Or just drunk with lust? You decide.

I like you so much it’s clouding my judgment and making me do things I never would sober. Like write this letter.

I have a hopeless, foolish, schoolgirl crush on you when you are the last person on earth I should be falling for. Did you know people around the office call you a sadist? An egomaniac. An insensitive, arrogant prick. Your bark is worse then your bite, and you don’t scare me. The fact is, I’d love that bite of yours to nip at my bare skin while we’re both wearing nothing but sheets.

For once I want you to look at me as more than one of your employees.

And as long as we're being honest, that navy blue suit you wear? With the crisp white shirt? It really makes me want to loosen your tie and show you who’s boss.

Love,

Sincerely,

Yours.

CHRISTY'S REVIEW:

   photo IMG_2125_zpsex1wscby.png


OMG this book was so freaking awesome- and so FUN! I usually love all the feels books best, but I swear, 2018 has been the year of rom-coms for me. Meghan Quinn and Sara Ney did a fantastic job co-writing this book. I’ve loved books from both of them individually, but they really shined together! I couldn’t get enough of Peyton, Rome, their emails and banter.

Peyton has it bad for her hot boss. Yes, her boss is hot, but he’s also known as the arrogant prick, the sadist of the office. Peyton doesn’t care. There is something about him that she likes. She sees something there. And in an anonymous email, she lets him know her feelings. Well, if feelings translates into ‘I want to bang you’ anyway. 



When Rome gets this email, he doesn’t know what to think. Of course it’s highly inappropriate of course, and then, maybe it’s a prank? He can’t be sure. All he knows is he’s intrigued by this employee of his. Rome owns a successful business and to maintain that he’s spent so much time being all business. Whoever this woman is, she’s made him smile and laugh more than he has in years. So he keeps responding to this mystery woman, even though he knows he shouldn’t.

One of my favorite things about this book were the emails. I loved reading them, and with reading them, we got to see a whole different side of Rome. Peyton was a fantastic and fun heroine and I loved Rome, even if he was a bit brash at times. They were a great paring and I rooted for them to be together. Their back and forth was comical, witty, and the best part of the book.

I love office romances, enemies to lovers stories, and rom-coms. This was a fantastic mix of all 3. I laughed out loud, I smiled non-stop, and swooned hardcore. I loved this book so much! I hope we get more from this writing duo because they knocked it out of the park with their first book together! Love, Sincerely, Yours is a must read!
EXCERPT:
I open the company messenger app on my phone and scroll through the executive names, knowing full well I’m about to break a policy. It’s the company’s phone, and the company’s app, and I’m about to use it for personal use. To flirt.

With my boss.

I close my eyes, find his name—next to it is a little, green dot, which means. . .

He’s on the app.

I’ve never talked to him live before so this is a huge step, but then again, it might be more fun to get his initial reactions to my comments.

Debating it for all but two seconds, I type out a message to him, making sure I’m signed on under my LSY persona.


My text turns into a new message on the app and I wait on bated breath to see if he will respond. Nerves prickle up my spine, my fingers feeling numb, my mind playing mutiny with my heart just as little dots appear letting me know he’s typing.

Oh God, I don’t think I’ve been more excited.

Sara Ney is the USA Today Bestselling Author of the How to Date a Douchebag series, and is best known for her sexy, laugh-out-loud New Adult romances. Among her favorite vices, she includes: iced latte's, historical architecture and well-placed sarcasm. She lives colorfully, collects vintage books, art, loves flea markets, and fancies herself British.

She lives with her husband, children, and her ridiculously large dog.


Born in New York and raised in Southern California, Meghan has grown into a sassy, peanut butter eating, blonde haired swearing, animal hoarding lady. She is known to bust out and dance if “It’s Raining Men” starts beating through the air and heaven forbid you get a margarita in her, protect your legs because they may be humped.

Once she started commuting for an hour and twenty minutes every day to work for three years, she began to have conversations play in her head, real life, deep male voices and dainty lady coos kind of conversations. Perturbed and confused, she decided to either see a therapist about the hot and steamy voices running through her head or start writing them down. She decided to go with the cheaper option and started writing… enter her first novel, Caught Looking.

Now you can find the spicy, most definitely on the border of lunacy, kind of crazy lady residing in Colorado with the love of her life and her five, furry four legged children, hiking a trail or hiding behind shelves at grocery stores, wondering what kind of lube the nervous stranger will bring home to his wife. Oh and she loves a good boob squeeze!

Unforgivable by Isabel Love is LIVE!







Title: Unforgivable
Author: Isabel Love
Genre: New Adult Romance
Release Date: April 26, 2018



Blurb

There are certain things that are unforgivable…
Falling for your brother’s best friend is one of them.

That isn’t the worst thing I’ve done, though.
Not even close.

Shame and guilt follow me everywhere.
Except when I’m with him.

With him, I can breathe again.
Smile again. Love again.

But he has no idea what I've done...

“Everyone deserves a second chance.”


Unforgivable is the third book I've read by Isabel Love. Each book I read by this author is better than the last, and this is my favorite one by far! I love books that hit me right in the feels, and Unforgivable did just that. An emotional story of love, friendship, growth, and forgiveness- this one hit all my love buttons!

Anna and Wes meet when they're just kids in middle school. Wes quickly becomes best friends with Anna's brother, and he and Anna become close friends as well. Anna quickly starts to fall for Wes, but Wes's life is complicated. He doesn't have the easiest childhood and that factors into the decisions he makes and the things that he does. One of my favorite things about this book was seeing into Wes and Anna's past. I loved watching their interactions growing up.  As they get older though, they change. Things change between them, but they always stay close.

This book made me think about choices, about mistakes, and about forgiveness. Is there anything you can think of that you consider unforgivable? Any mistake you could make that truly cannot be forgiven? Anna has made a mistake that is that big in her eyes. No matter what, she can't move past it and she can't forgive herself. Wes isn't perfect, either. He's made mistakes in his past as well. As tough as these two are on themselves, I loved that they never held each others past mistakes against one another.

I’ve always been hers. I always will be.

Wes and Anna had the most delicious slow burn romance. I am used to hot and sexy from Love, but this book was just... more. It was so much more that that. The story was real, raw, and had depth. Of course there were some sexy scenes, but the build up was the best part! Anna and Wes had a love story that was beautiful, unconditional, and a bit forbidden, as Wes is her brother's best friend. Their connection was just there from the very start. I felt it. This story captivated me. It broke my heart at times, but also managed to uplift me. Wes and Anna are both amazing characters. Wes was seriously the sweetest, and I found Anna to be truly lovable and completely relateable in a lot of ways. I loved Anna's entire family and friends as well.

Unforgivable is a story of healing, first loves, mistakes, forgiveness, and learning to let go and move on from your mistakes. It brought me to tears more than once, but in the end, it made my heart so happy! For all my friends who love brother's best friend books, emotional books, and slow-burn romances, I can't recommend this story to you enough! I give it 5 stars, and I can't wait to see what Isabel Love has in store for us next!!
   
Our story isn’t simple. Our past is riddled with pain and mistakes. But it brought us to each other.

Keatyn Douglas — Hollywood’s sweetheart and owner of Captive Films leads a chaotic, glamorous life.

When drama starts at work, she may decide to give it all up for life out of the fast lane.

Christy's Review:

“When you surround yourself with the people you love, great things can happen.”

I remember reading Stalk Me over 5 years ago when it was first released. I was enamored with Keatyn Douglas and I couldn’t wait for more of her. With each book, I loved these characters more. I’ve watched them grow from high schoolers, to adults with their own families. It’s bittersweet to see a series you love so dearly come to an end, but I think Jillian ended these books in a fantastic way!

This book follows Keatyn and Aiden, Riley, Dawson, Dallas, Vanessa, Knox, and a slue of other characters. IFLY Keatyn and Aiden and I love reading about them, but what I loved most about this is that my boy, Riley was redeemed. The last few books I was questioning his character and the man he became, but it’s safe to say I love him again!

These stories have lots of drama, but they also have lots of heart. Love, especially, was a heartfelt story. I feel like everyone got the ending they needed, and you get closure. I fell in love with these characters all over again.

If I had to choose one word to describe these stories I would use the word ADDICTIVE. Once you start them, you won’t want to stop. I love these books so much and I highly recommend them! As sad as I am they’re over, theres always re-reads! Love is a wonderful ending to a beloved series of mine! It’s fun, emotional, sexy, and I loved it!!!

Unconventional by Isabel Love is LIVE!!!











Title: Unconventional
Author: Isabel Love
Genre: Erotic Romance
Release Date: July 20, 2017



Blurb

Happily ever after—what a joke! I tried that once and ended up divorced.
Now, I only want one thing from men.
Charlie Nelson is good at giving me that one thing. Really, really good.

So good, in fact, I discovered a new side of myself.
I never knew I liked to watch until I saw his talented hands touching someone else.
I never knew I liked to be watched until I felt his searing gaze on me.

Maybe happily ever after isn’t always a white picket fence, wedding bells, and 2.5 kids.
Maybe it’s something a bit more…unconventional.


*Warning: Contains dirty talk, piercings and hot threesomes.
Intended for readers over 18 years of age.

Christy's 5 star review:

So… let me start out by saying that THIS is by far the HOTTEST book I’ve read this year! I mean, sweet baby Jesus! Isabel Love burns up the pages with Unconventional! When I first read Untouchable, I was curious about Max and Monica’s wild friends, Charlie and Quinn. This book is a complete stand-alone, but if you’ve read Love’s first book, you’ve already met our leading man and lady.

Charlie Nelson is a photographer. He’s perpetually single, preferring just to hook-up. Charlie’s been hurt in the past and that has turned him into the type that doesn’t do relationships. He meets his match when he meets Quinn Fitzpatrick. Quinn is also an artist. She is the same as Charlie in a lot of ways. Quinn is the girl that just wants to have fun. She’s not into anything serious. She and Charlie develop this flirty and super sexy friends with benefits relationship.

It’s just what they both want. Friends. Lots of sex. No strings. They push the boundaries with each other, delving into their deeper sexual desires. Through that, they start to trust one another, care for one another, and maybe, even start developing real feelings for one another. What I loved most about Quinn and Charlie is that there was no judgment between the two of them. They accepted one another and just got each other.

I am one of those readers that will rarely five star an erotica type book. They never really hit all of my love buttons, because a lot of the time they are super sexy, but don’t give me enough story or enough feels. Unconventional had it all. Steamy, emotional, funny, and the perfect amount of feels. I love Isabel’s writing. LOVE IT! If you’re looking for a fun and naughty read with some depth and a real story attached, this is the book for you! I can’t wait to see what else Love has in store for us!

“Life has taken so many choices away from us, and I like that we get to define our happily ever after.”

Excerpt 
What an odd date this is—he’s taking me out to watch another man give me orgasms.
A giggle erupts from my throat at the thought.


“What’s so funny?” He grins over at me as he starts up the car and pulls out into the street.
“Just…this. I can’t believe I’m doing this. I never thought I was this kind of woman.”


He narrows his eyes at me. “What kind of woman?”


“The…you know…threesome kind, or whatever this is.” I wave my hand in front of me.
“The kind of woman that likes to explore her sexuality? The kind of woman that likes to try new things? The kind of woman that doesn’t let society dictate the way she leads her life?”


Hmm. I don’t mind being that kind of woman. I feel his stare at the stoplight.


“Quinn.”
My mirth dies and my smile fades at his serious tone. I meet his blue eyes and raise my eyebrows in question.


“You listen to me: I think you’re fucking amazing—strong, beautiful, talented, sexy as fuck. If doing this is going to change your opinion of yourself, let’s not.”


My chest squeezes at his sincerity and I feel so much better about tonight. I mean, I am excited, but I must admit I was afraid of the judgment factor, of what he’ll think of me after tonight. Now he’s worried about what I’ll think of myself, and that alone makes me square my shoulders, raise my chin, and reassure him.


“I want this, Charlie, really want it. I promise I won’t regret it later.”


He leans forward, smiling, and places a soft kiss on my lips. “That’s more like it.”
