BLOG TOUR ~~ BOURBON NIGHTS by Shari J. Ryan

Rating: BLOG TOUR BOURBON NIGHTS by Shari J. Ryan Release Date: July 20, 2020 Cover Design: MadHat Studios Photographer: Reggie Deanching – R+M Photography Model: Aidan Stewart Genre: Contemporary Romance   Louisa’s 4 Blush Review I am not always a fan of a complete book for another POV but when Shari J. Ryan is writing…I am reading. Brett and Melody’s story was book one in the series but Melody’s point of view.  I loved the story then so I knew this one would be just as good (Bourbon Love Notes review). Seeing the thoughts that Brett has from the moment he...

#FiveBlushReview ~~ The Breaking Season by K.A. Linde

Rating:   The Breaking Season: An Arranged Marriage Romance by K.A. Linde A sexy stand alone arranged marriage romance from USA Today bestselling author K.A. Linde… I signed on the dotted line. A marriage contract to seal my union with the devil. I thought I knew what I was doing. His money and name were mine for the taking. But Camden Percy always gets exactly what he wants. And what he wants is me—my body, my obedience, my surrender. He wants to break me. But I’m Katherine Van Pelt. I’ll never break. I’ll never beg. I’ll never give in. Except I promised...

#ReviewTour #EnemiesToLovers ~~ The Rivals by Vi Keeland

Rating:   Title: The Rivals Author: Vi Keeland Genre: Standalone Contemporary Romance Release Date: July 13, 2020 Louisa’s 4 Blush Review From the moment these two see each other on the plane ride to NYC, the sparks fly.  The enemies to lover is no joke with these two.  The hatred between their families has spilled over to these two but with them -the fine line between love and hate is oh-so thin. I loved the push and the pull between Sophie and Weston.  I loved how Weston could be such a smart ass but also a sweet guy.  The back...

Blog Tour ~~ Twisted Circles by Claire Contreras

Rating:   Twisted Circles by  New York Times bestselling author, Claire Contreras, is now live! Sandy’s 4 Blush Review Twisted Circles is the second novel in Claire Contreras’ Secret Society series. It can be read as a standalone. However, reading Book 1 “Half-Truths” will certainly add to the atmosphere and enjoyment of this series. Rewind! That’s how it felt because we are right back in the Half-Truths world and another person is missing. Eva Guerra is suffering from selective amnesia. Eva wakes up in a mental institution with no idea how she got there. Certain things are clear but whole...

Review ~~ The Hunter by L.J. Shen

Rating: The Hunter (Boston Belles #1) by L.J. Shen Stephanie’s 4 Blush Review He was fearless, and a rebel, and a sinner, and a saint. LJ Shen has turned her book world upside down! The Hunter is a crossover of sorts. Hunter Fitzpatrick is featured in the All Saints High series and Sailor Brennan is the daughter of Sparrow and Troy Brennan from Shen’s “Sparrow.” Hunter and Sailor are thrown together for many reasons. Some are known and others are revealed later. Their story is layered with dreams, aspirations, promises, and heartbreak. I love Sailor’s character. Her heart is pure and...

#Review ~~ One to Watch by Kate Stayman-London

Rating: One to Watch by Kate Stayman-London  Louisa’s 4.5 Blush Review This book was fantastic! I always love a plus-sized heroine and I Bea was the perfect girl to bring this book to life. To be honest – I CAN NOT watch the Bachelor or Bachelorette in real life because it’s just too…ick…for me. How do people “claim” they love someone after just a few weeks? And I know a lot of it is all staged for the drama and I just feel so awkward when they are sent home and just…yick. BUT, One to Watch didn’t give me those...

#ReleaseBlitz #FiveBlushReview ~~ Am I The Only One by E.K. Blair

Rating: Title: Am I the Only One Author: E.K. Blair Genre: Thriller/Romantic Suspense Release Date: July 10, 2020 LOUISA’S 5 BLUSH REVIEW My first suspense book I ever read I think was BANG! by E.K. Blair and I have been waiting for another suspense from her to give me the same feels…you know – the “WTF did I just read” feel. For me, the barometer for a good suspense book is exactly that…what did I just read? What just happened? A mind fuck essentially and E.K. Blair delivered it with Am I The Only One.  I went into it blind...

Blog Tour, Excerpt & Reviews ~~ Hard to Handle by K. Bromberg

Rating: Hard to Handle, book one in the Play Hard series, an all-new series of standalone books by New York Times bestselling author, K. Bromberg, is LIVE!   Louisa’s 4 Blush Review I have been a K. Bromberg since the Colton (Driven series) days.  She has proven to her readers that she can be versatile but also consistent.  She writes books that keep you intrigued and on the edge of your seat while reading. Hard to Handle is a little bit of all of my favorites – sports romance, second chance romance,  and enemies to lovers romance.  K. Bromberg has...
