Christy's Review: 



   photo FA4A3DFE-4B6E-409F-8070-27D81FDF0B5C_zpsptdax001.png


I love royal romances and after reading 'The Sinful King' earlier this year, I knew I wanted more from this royal family. The Naughty Princess is a novella featuring King Elias's sister, Princess Pilar.

Pilar is a good girl and never gives her royal family any trouble, unlike one of her brothers. She keeps under the radar as much as she can and doesn't get into anything too exciting. Until she goes out with Benjamin Drake. Ben is someone she's crushed on for a while, as a famous footballer, he's always in the limelight.

Pilar and Benjamin go out a few times, and find that they really like each other. Not only that, but their chemistry is insane. It's hard, though. Pilar has a lot of expectations as a Princess and Ben tries very hard to keep his private life private, which is difficult if you're involved with a royal.

This short story packs quite the punch. I loved both Ben and Pilar and watching them navigate their feelings for each other. The Naughty Princess was a short and steamy story that held my attention from start to finish. I really hope we get a book about the final Prince, Aramis. I'm dying for that playboy's story!

Review: Love Under Quarantine

   photo IMG_6557_zpscmp1p4ct.png  
   
In that moment, I realize I’m falling for this woman, and I’ve never laid my hands on her.

Love Under Quarantine is a stand-alone romance co-written by Kylie Scott and Audrey Carlan. I love Kylie’s writing, but this is the first book I’ve read by Carlan. 


Love Under Quarantine starts with Evan staying at his friend Jake’s apartment for a while due to some bad press. What Evan doesn’t expect is to get stuck in this apartment during a quarantine. Lucky for him, Jake has a beautiful neighbor named Sadie. Sadie and Evan are flirty and fun together and hit it off from the start.

Sadie and Evan had loads of chemistry. I loved watching the build up between them and how they got to know each other through calls, texts, video chats, and hanging out on their respective balconies. I couldn’t wait till they could finally be together. It was well worth the wait!

Evan is definitely an alpha type hero. He’s a professional athlete and there was a side story based solely on what he was going through with his career at the moment. It also touched on Sadie’s career as a romance author. I didn’t love the conflict between them towards the end regarding Sadie’s book, but I was happy it was resolved quickly.

Personally, I want to read to get out of my head. Sometimes when books hit a little too close to home it’s not a bad thing, if I can connect with them in some way. Even though I enjoyed a lot of this story, I’ve been reading more to get my mind OFF the pandemic going on, and this just brought it right back to the forefront of my mind. I think a lot of readers will love it, but for me, I had trouble connecting to the story for this very reason.

If you’re looking for a romance that is set during the quarantine, pick this one up! It was a great mix of a bit of insta-love, but with a lot of delayed gratification and I truly did enjoy that part of it!

Cover Reveal: When the Walls Come Down


wtwcd CR banner


When the Walls Come Down, an all-new neighbors to lovers romantic comedy from USA Today bestselling author Aly Martinez and M. Mabie is coming June 4th and we have the gorgeous cover!


When the walls come down cover


Did you ever hear the joke about the guy whose wife cheated on him with his best friend? So he quit his job, moved into his parents’ basement, and gained fifty pounds?

No? Because that wasn’t a joke. It was my life.


Four years later, I'm back with a dream job, a killer apartment, and a set of abs that are better than ever.


So, when Maggie Light, a stunning, snarky blonde moves in next door, and we spend the hottest weekend of our lives together, I think this could be the greatest comeback story ever.

That is until I realize Maggie has moved to town to do one thing—steal my job.


Maybe this isn't a comeback story after all. Maybe this is war—one I intend to win.


What I never anticipated was that maybe I’d rather win her.


Perhaps, if I’m lucky, the universe has finally run out of jokes and I can somehow win both.
