Releasing: February 2, 2022

A secret romance pushes three estranged sisters to the Amalfi Coast to follow clues about their mother's past, and challenges them to a whole new future, from New York Times bestselling author Jennifer Probst.

Sisters Priscilla, Devon, and Bailey haven't been close in years, but when they're forced to come together to settle their mother's estate, they discover a secret none of them knew. In an old trunk, they happen upon ownership papers for a house on the Amalfi Coast, along with a love letter from their mother to an anonymous man, promising to meet him in Italy during the summer of her seventieth year.

Now they're questioning everything they knew about her history. In order to get answers about the woman they thought they knew, they'll have to go back to where it all started. The sisters embark on a trip to the stunning cliffside village of Positano, Italy, to track down the mysterious ex-lover, and figure out who their mother really was.

As Priscilla, Devon, and Bailey unearth the truth, they also experience the magic of Italy, the power of sisterly love, a little unexpected romance, and newfound hope for the future.

Savage Queen {a review}

 

If you read my weekly wrap up then you already know that Savage Queen was my favorite book that I read last week.

Savage Queen is a bully romance that features the enemies to lovers trope, and it is FABULOUS. Oh, and technically this is a sports romance as well. I KNOW! While all that caught my attention, and drew me toward the book, it is the storyline that made me stay.

Samanatha, better known as Savvy, is starting her senior year in school and her mother has decided she needs to switch schools. So here she is at this place she doesn't want to be, with no familiar faces, and she has to use a different last name. Her mother clearly doesn't want anyone to know that Savvy is related to one of the founding families. Therefore using the St James name will keep people at bay. Oh, and Savvy has to be called Samantha as well. No more Savvy at this school. While Savvy has to change so much about herself, her true personality cannot be hidden. She is a strong young woman who doesn't put up with BS. Oh, and don't treat her friends poorly, she doesn't appreciate that.

On that very first day she meets Jasper Noble. He rules the school so to speak, and Savvy immediately challenges him on everything. Naturally Jasper is intrigued by her. How could he not be. Jasper also thinks she looks familiar, but he can't figure out where he's seen her before. There is so much I want to say about this book! Yet I have to reign it in so I don't go too far. Just know that things between Savvy and Jasper continue to build, and the tension is there. These two enemies want each other.

Moving on, because I don't want to overshare...

I have questions that I need answered. First, WHY did Savvy have to change schools? What is her mother's game plan? She clearly has an angle. What is she holding over Savvy to make her go along with this? Why can't anyone know she's related to Carter King, and is a member of the Royalty Crew? WHAT IS GOING ON?

Also, um, I wasn't expecting Savage Queen to end in a cliffhanger! Alley Ciz had me almost throwing my kindle. I literally groaned when the book ended. Is it June yet? Because I need Ruthless Noble to see what happens next!

As I said in the beginning, this was my favorite book that I read last week. It is fabulous. I am eagerly anticipating Ruthless Noble. I will be buying a physical copy of the Royalty Crew series. I will also be going back to read the U of J series, since this is technically a spin-off.

Let me leave you with this: If you enjoyed the Folkestone Sins series by Samantha Lovelock, then you're going to enjoy Savage Queen. You have a strong female lead, you have romance, you have questions that you're trying to answer, you have fantastic characters that you want to know further, and the setting is wonderful. It's all there. So trust me when I say go read Savage Queen!

Thank you for reading my thoughts,

May Anticipated Releases

Can you believe it's already time to talk about books releasing in May? 

I know! I mean it seems as though I was just sharing my anticipated reads for April. Yet some how, here we are.

So I have ELEVEN books on my anticipated reads list. I know. You want to know what's not funny? They're all in the second half of the month.  And I really want to read them all on their release dates. (well unless I can some how score an ARC, and then there is the chance of reading in advance) Yes I want to read them on their release dates because I want to read these books, but also because I want to share my thoughts here on the blog. Oh and all the books are continuations of series, or spin-offs. Sorry, not sorry.

What are the ELEVEN books? Well, I'm glad you asked.

Bad Crush {a review}

Bad Crush by Rebecca Jenshak is the second book in the Campus Nights series. I had an opportunity to read an advanced copy of the book, and I was hooked immediately.

Now it's been YEARS (ahem, 2 decades) since I've been in college, but that doesn't stop me from reading these new adult romances that have a college setting. I'm all for it. Let's just say that my time at college was nothing like the characters. 🤣 This lady was either in class, at work, babysitting, or driving home for the occasional weekend. In other words, BORING. (but if you know me, then you know that's who I am. I love being at home, and laying low.)

Enough about me, and my lack of social life at college though. Let's talk about Reagan and Adam. These two initially met a couple of years ago when Reagan was moving into the same apartment complex that Adam lives in. It was an instant attraction for Reagan. One look at Adam, and the crush began. 

Reagan also happens to be best friends with Ginny. Who is Ginny you ask? Well that would be Adam's sister. Yep, this is a best friend's sibling romance. Over the last couple of years, Adam and Reagan have developed a friendship (maybe due to proximity, maybe because of Ginny). So it is also friends to lovers romance. AND I AM HERE FOR IT! Add in the fact that Adam is the captain of the hockey team, and that just ramps up my interest in the book. Sorry, not sorry.

What can I even tell you about the storyline? Well you know they are neighbors. You know they are friends. You also know that Reagan has a crush on Adam. One night, Reagan gets a little drunk (after a horrible date), and creates a little glitter heart that has a note attached for Adam. It is declaring her crush, and laying her heart on the line. She gets this letter into his apartment (and bedroom) with the help of Ginny. The next morning rolls around, and Reagan remembers what happened and NEEDS to get that card/note/what-have-you back. So she does, and her secret is safe. Fast forward a little bit, and Adam needs a date to accompany him to a banquet. He is trying to obtain a scholarship for medical school, and so he has to attend. Adam asks Reagan to join him. And THAT is where things begin to change. 

Seriously, I want to tell you so much more about the storyline and how everything ends up, but that would be wrong. That would be ruining things for others. I refuse to do that.

Here's what I will say. Bad Crush was a terrific story. The setting was fabulous. The characters (main + side) were AMAZING. And I loved every moment of it. My heart soared, my heart crashed, and I may have wanted to knock some sense into Reagan's mom. I fell for these characters, and I am definitely going to continue with the series. (as well as go back and read Secret Puck which is Heath and Ginny's story.)

So if you like hockey romance, friends to lovers, best friend's sibling, and/or the college setting, then please pick up Bad Crush. I think you'll like it. I know I did.

Thank you for taking time to read,

Bad Crush by Rebecca Janshek is now live!

Reasons not to crush on Adam:

He's my best friend's brother.

He's my neighbor.

He's the captain of the hockey team.

He's a serial monogamist who's sworn off dating.

Reasons not to fake date Adam:

See above.

He has no idea I actually like him—like really like him.

But do I listen to any of those really great reasons? Of course not.

Now, thanks to my amazing and convincing acting skills, one fake date ends with him being my

fake fiancé (oops!).

My bad crush has gotten me in way over my head.
