#ItsLive #BlogTour #Review ~~ Fashion Jungle by Kathy Ireland & Rachel Van Dyken

Rating: Fashion Jungle by Kathy Ireland and Rachel Van Dyken Release Date: January 28, 2020 Sandy’s 4.25 BLUSH Review   Rachel Van Dyken and Kathy Ireland…hmmmmm I thought this is going to be juicy.  Four female main characters with fashion and romance?  Right away I thought Carrie, Samantha, Charlotte, and Miranda.  Yes, there were similarities but let’s dig a little deeper here.  Kathy Ireland has had a long illustrious career that she transitioned from modeling to a business mogul with her hands in EVERYTHING else.  As you get into Fashion Jungle you know that some of these situations are first-hand...

#BlogTour #Review #FiveBlushReview ~~ Even If It Hurts by Marni Mann

Rating: Even if it Hurts by Marni Mann Release Date: January 28, 2020 Wow is the first word that comes to mind. I haven’t read a story like this in a long time.  A story in which I couldn’t decide where I wanted it to go and in my opinion that’s a perfectly written book! These characters, I loved them all. Chloe, Lance & Oliver.  There is so much heart and soul in this book that it left me speechless at the end.  Being in love and loving someone are two totally different things and your first love will always...

#BlogTour #Review ~~ Boss Man Bridegroom by Meghan Quinn

Rating:   BOSS MAN BRIDEGROOM by Meghan Quinn Release Date: January 23rd Genre: Contemporary Romance Christina’s 4 Blush Review Guh. I loved this book. A combination of two of my favorite tropes, boss/employee and fake marriage, Boss Man Bridegroom is funny, sweet, romantic, heartwarming and everything in-between. The heroine was extremely unique and at times, a tad over the top even for me which is probably why I rated this book a 4 instead of a 5. Her love and obsession of all things organization and day planners spoke to me like no other heroine has before (haha). I was...

#ItsLive #DualReviews #FiveBlushRead ~~ Inappropriate by Vi Keeland

Rating: INAPPROPRIATE IS LIVE! A Standalone Contemporary Romance #1 New York Times Bestselling Author Vi Keeland Christina’s 5 Blush Review When I think of the authors who wrote books that made me cry, Vi Keeland is nowhere near the top of the list. That being said, I would be lying if I didn’t tell you that Inappropriate had tears springing to my eyes numerous times and a lump in my throat on a few specific occasions. In my opinion, Inappropriate is Vi Keeland’s best book to date. It has something for every romance junkie out there. Rich, hot alpha/broken tragic...

#Review ~~ Followers by Megan Angelo

Rating: SANDY’S 5 BLUSH REVIEW Influencers.  YouTube stars.  Likes.  People sit next to each other but text instead of speaking to each other.  Social media is King.  One comment can make you the darling of the internet or drop you into oblivion. Followers – so titled because your life depends on ever-increasing the number of followers higher and higher.  The story is given to us in the “present” which is 2055 and flashbacks to 2015.  The crème de la crème of society live in a town called Constellation.  How it came to exist and how the characters got there is...

Maybe one of my most favorite PNR series Vampire Debt by Kelly St Clare

Rating: Vampire royals strategise at 2 a.m. Last week, I inherited every cent of the multi-billion-dollar Le Spyre estate. But tequila is far easier to swallow than the coincidence of my beloved grandmother’s death. I’m over this supernatural game, yet walking away from Kyros isn’t simple with the damn mate thing on the cards. The Indebted need my help. My grandmother deserves justice. And, uhm, the third blood exchange did something to me. It’s official. I’m done playing by paranormal rules. I’m making my own–and playing to win. Because if I enter Ingenium on my terms, there’s no turning back. Winning is the only option....

#SneakPeak ~~ Inappropriate by Vi Keeland

Excited about Vi Keeland’s upcoming release, Inappropriate? Check out this SNEAK PEEK   I wondered if he’d be here. I was mid-conversation with some former colleagues I hadn’t seen in a few years when I got my answer. The sight of him made me lose my train of thought. On the other side of the room, Grant Lexington stood wearing a classic black tuxedo. He was talking to an older gentleman, which gave me the opportunity to really take him in—tall, broad shoulders, yet not overly bulky, a narrow waist with one hand resting casually in his pants pocket. Even...
