BLURB

Being the star of the world’s most viral runaway bride video wasn’t how I envisioned my future when I woke up on my wedding morning, but here we are.

With me hiding from the world in Fiji where I’m now honeymooning solo.

And where I just tripped over my number one celebrity crush, hungover and sleeping on my little porch.

Turns out Jonas Rutherford, Razzle Dazzle movie star and heir to the entertainment conglomerate’s billions, is having his own relationship issues and is here hiding too after details of his scandalous divorce went public.

I didn’t think inviting him in for a hangover cure would lead to us getting friendly. And friendlier. And then—okay, yes.

I slept with him. Who can blame a girl? When you’re suddenly unexpectedly single and the number one guy on your freebie list is available, you leap.

But when I wake up the next morning, I discover I’m not the only runaway in my life, because he’s just ghosted me.

It’s fine. I’m fine. Neither one of us is in a position to start an actual relationship.

But three years later?

When he crashes my brother’s wedding?

Where the son that he’s just discovered he has is serving as ring bearer?

Life was a lot easier when I was just a runaway bride.

The Bride’s Runaway Billionaire is a deliciously juicy and utterly swoony romcom featuring a jaded optimist who’s had enough of the limelight, a happy-go-lucky celebrity whose world has been upside down since that fling after his divorce, the most adorable two-year-old on the planet, and a chicken with an attitude. While this book stands alone, you won’t go wrong to read The Worst Wedding Date, The Gossip and the Grump, and The Last Eligible Billionaire first.

My thoughts: 
Emma’s story gave me all the feels and had me laughing out loud repeatedly. Her hero was a great guy who had his stumbling moments and was adorably awkward at times. It was also fun to see past characters that I wasn’t expecting to see in this story. There are many things about Pippa Grant’s worlds that make these stories so amazing and this one had them all, including adorable animals with huge personalities. I won’t share who Emma’s hero is, but I definitely think this book is worth reading at least once but probably more than that.

My thoughts: I wanted to read this book based on the author. I knew I liked her past work so I figured I'd like this book too. I was correct, but this book may not be for everyone because the couple in this story are cheating to be together. In this instance I am rooting for them to be together, even if they aren't doing things the right way. This story put me through a gamut of emotions, but was very well done. I'd love to see what happens after the end of this book because I had some questions still. Scarlett and Easton had a lot to work through, but they both owned up to their mistakes. I'd also love for Scarlett's twin to get her story told because both girls went through so much in this book. I definitely enjoyed reading it and had trouble putting it down. 
BLURB:

 

WARNING: DO NOT READ THE BLURB FOR THIS BOOK.

It’s better if you go in BLIND, trust me…

But if you *have* to know what you're getting yourself into, you can read the synopsis below.

 

She lied to me.

Not once, not twice.

This entire time.

 

To her, I was the "cliche Mr. Popular," the star quarterback who owned Friday nights.

To me, she was the goth geek in the bleachers, playing clarinet in the band.

 

Despite our differences, I climbed through her window every night.

Even when we started college.

 

She was the only person who truly understood me, and I couldn't stay away from her if I tried.

Our connection was hot and toxic, but we never dared to put out the flames.

 

We fell too hard, too fast…

And this wouldn’t have been a problem except for the fact that I was already dating someone else.

 

Her sister.

 

**See? That’s why you shouldn’t have read this blurb and went in blind. Alas, this is an emotional ride of a romance with toxic undertones that will drive you to some unexpected places. The author just felt like writing this story one day, so don't say you weren't warned about what you were getting into.**

Dr. CEO

Louise Bay

Release Date: August 31

FREE IN KINDLE UNLIMITED

 
She hates him. He can’t get enough of her.

My life was simple until Vincent Cove, an (annoyingly hot) American billionaire, arrived. He wants to convert the English country mansion where I live and work into a glitzy hotel.

Over my dead body.

I’m just a small-town waitress, up against Vincent’s goliath fortune, but I won’t go down without a fight. I'm taking on this billionaire bulldozer.

If I’d known his plans I definitely (maybe) wouldn’t have slept with him. And I’m determined to ignore the chemistry growing between us.

Except his charm is distracting, his persistence is irritating and his forearms, sharp jaw and devilish smile are downright infuriating.

At least I don’t have to worry about him sticking around. A self-confessed rolling stone, he can’t commit to a lunch order before noon, so there’s no way he’ll hang around long enough for me to fall in love with him.

A standalone, enemies to lovers, small town, billionaire romance with a guaranteed HEA.

Title: Back in Black

Author: Julie Ann Walker

Genre: Romantic Suspense

About Back In Black:

The Black Knights are back and better than ever!

 

FBI agent Grace Beacham is on the run. After an operation to bring down a Russian disinformation campaign goes sideways and ends in her partner’s death, the Kremlin has sent its most notorious assassin to kill her. Not knowing who to trust inside the Bureau, Grace is forced to call on the one man who might be able to save her. The one man she hasn’t been able to forget.

 

BKI operative Hunter Jackson walked away from Grace Beacham three years ago. And he hasn’t looked back. But when his cell phone suddenly jangles to life with Grace on the other end begging for his help, he doesn’t hesitate to ride to her rescue.

 

Grace is no stranger to men like Hunter. Men who are devastatingly attractive and in love with their perilous professions and no-strings-attached lifestyles. As the two of them go off-grid to uncover the truth behind what happened on her last assignment, she fears her life might not be the only thing on the line. With Hunter, her heart could be in danger too.

About the Author:

Born in Tulsa, Oklahoma, Julie grew up in a house full of women – she has three older sisters. As you can imagine, there was no lack of drama… or romance. Her mother enrolled her in a book club as soon as she began to read and it was the small spark that ignited her voracious appetite for the written word.

 

Because of Julie’s early immersion in literature, she found writing came quite naturally. In high school, she won multiple writing contests and was the proud senior editor of The Tiger’s Tale – her school newspaper.

 

During her college years, however, she longed for a challenge. “Reading and writing felt like second nature to me, so I looked for a way to flex my mental muscles,” she recalls. After receiving a Bachelor of Science degree, Julie began teaching advanced high school mathematics.

 

“I loved working with the students and facing the challenges of the classroom, but I longed for the occasional snow day when I could race to the local book store, buy two or three new novels, and curl up in front of the fire to read.”

 

It wasn’t until a fortuitous move to Chicago that Julie once more returned to her first passion.

 

Now Julie loves to travel the world looking for views to compete with her deadlines. When she’s not writing, she enjoys camping, hiking, cycling, cooking, petting every dog that walks by her, and… reading, of course!

A secret identity mixed in with forced proximity on top of red-hot chemistry? What could go wrong?   The Black Knights are back and better than ever! FBI agent Grace Beacham is on the run.

Exclusive Excerpt:

“Some nights are so dark the dawn seems impossible.” The words Grace Beacham’s father spoke to her that awful evening her husband filed for divorce came back to her as she used the outdoor spigot to wash the blood from her hands. Hands so shaky she could barely perform the task. Hands so pale the brightness shining from her lit cell phone screen made the skin appear translucent. She could see her veins snaking beneath her flesh like holding a leaf up to the sunlight. Her father had been talking about the depths of her despair and the weight of her failure. But now she felt the simple truth of his words. If she believed that text message , this moonless night may very well be her last. Rubbing her wet hands on her thighs, she snatched her phone off the ground and forced herself to look at the screen again. Hoping the text had magically disappeared. No such luck. Who would think six little words could have terror weighing her down until her body felt like a bag of wet concrete?

Orpheus is hunting you. Run. Hide.

Dr. Perfect

 

PERFECT

Louise Bay

Release Date: April 20

 
  A boss, his assistant, a snowstorm and just one bed. What could go wrong?   They call him Dr. Perfect.   I call him Dr. Aloof, Dr. Arrogant, Dr. If-you're-going-to-fire-me-just-get-it-over-with.   If I had other options, I'd quit, but I need this job. Badly. So I jump at the chance to impress him by hand-delivering some important documents.   Yes, he's staying on a remote Scottish Island, but I've got it covered...   Until the ferry back is cancelled, there are no hotels on the island and there's a storm headed our way.   So I'm snowed in with my impossibly handsome boss, who barely knows my name, in a tiny one-bedroom cottage in the middle of nowhere.   But unlike the snow outside, his icy stare is beginning to melt and we don't need a generator to keep it warm inside.   Grab Your Copy!   https://geni.us/QwhZbhd
My thoughts: Zach needs an assistant for his private practice, but he doesn't actually want to be a doctor. He hires Ellie to be his assistant and she's very confused about the practice because there are no actual patients. They end up getting snowed in together and that is when their relationship changes.

About VACATION WARS:

From USA Today and Amazon Charts bestselling author Meghan Quinn comes a fun, sexy story about the family dynamics that can stand in the way of rekindling a romance.

Prepared for a good time, Tessa is thrilled to spend the weeks before her sister’s wedding at their family’s favorite vacation spot: Santorini. Sandy beaches, stonewashed houses, attractive men—it’s heaven.

But Tessa’s idea of a girls’ trip comes to a screaming halt when her sister thinks it’s high time Tessa finds some love herself. Unfortunately, Tessa forgot about the deal she made back in high school: she has to find her soulmate before her sister’s wedding. Or else.

As she dodges suitors and her sister’s pranks, Tessa finds an ally in the oh-so-dreamy Myles, her childhood crush who just so happens to work at the resort. But Myles is dealing with some family conflict of his own. He’s elated at being reunited with Tessa, but his father’s refusal to acknowledge his interest in the family business and relegating him to only grunt work casts a dark cloud.

As Tessa and Myles help navigate their way through their families’ antics, they begin to realize that their past feelings may have a future—if only they can turn their island fantasies into something real.

The Worst Wedding Date

 


I absolutely adored this book! I loved seeing how Theo supposedly messed up and what had to be done to keep him in line. Both characters were quirky, fun, and had chemistry that was off the charts. One thing I adore about Pippa is she writes characters with flaws and quirks that anyone could have. This book was read in one day because it was such a great story. I highly recommend reading it. 

Title: The Worst Wedding Date
Author: Pippa Grant
Genre: Romantic Comedy
Tropes: Best Friend's Brother/Enemies to Lovers
Release Date: April 13, 2023


BLURB

I didn’t know bridesmaid was code for babysitter for the bride’s brother, but if that’s what my best friend needs of me for her dream wedding to go off without a hitch, that’s what I’ll do.
Even if Theo Monroe has been a pain in my rear since third grade.
Even if he should be responsible enough to not wreak havoc at his sister’s destination wedding.
Even if it means we have to share a hotel room in Hawaii, which might be the final duty that breaks me.
Not only does Theo know exactly how to push my buttons, but he never wears clothes, he’s hiding a litter of kittens in his room, and he keeps showing up with fresh-baked cookies that seemingly come from nowhere.
Also?
I have no idea why he’s being such an utter ass to the groom.
Or why he’s so proud of the world’s most awkward wedding gift.
Or why I suddenly want to know what makes him tick. The story behind his tattoos. How he can afford to rent a convertible in Hawaii. And if maybe all of that utter frustration and irritation I’ve felt for him for years is suppressed attraction that a good girl like me isn’t supposed to feel for the biggest bad boy of Snaggletooth Creek.
But I do know one thing.
When I find out his biggest secret and the answer to all of my questions, it will change everything.

The Worst Wedding Date is a frolicking good time of a destination wedding enemies-to-lovers romcom, complete with a good girl bridesmaid, her best friend’s troublemaking but secretly big-hearted brother, and more than one hitch on the way to happily ever after. It stands alone, has no cheating, and comes complete with ooey gooey goodness.
