Bravo, another Cathy Yardley fave! And Jenapher Zheng and David Lee Huynh did such a great job bringing Emily and Vihn to life. I love second chance romances, so this was gearing up to be a win before I started. I really enjoyed their journey back to one another.

Historia
Trauma nurse Aly Cappellucci doesn’t need any more kinks. She likes the one she’s landed on just fine. To her, nothing could top the masked men she follows online. Unless one of those men was shirtless, heavily tattooed, and waiting for her in her bedroom. She dreams about being hunted by one in particular, of him chasing her down and doing deliciously dark things to her willing body. She never could have guessed that by sending one drunken text, those dreams would become her new reality.

So close to being a 5 star!
Revisado: 02-17-25
What an absolute treat this was! I've been holding off on reading this one right away, but used some leftover credits to grab the audio.
Josh cracked me up, I couldn't stop laughing. He was what I deemed "spicy cinnamon roll". His back and forth was such a comedic relief, I loved it. And the banter between them was unforgettable.
There was two certain elements where the story took a turn for me. I thought the book was amazing as is, but those little elements kind of pushed me out of the story.
Bravo to the 5 star narration with Elena Wolfe and Jacob Morgan. I couldn't have imagined a more perfect casting and hope we get to see them again in the next book.

Historia
All newly minted pediatrician Jamie Malek wants is to borrow a roasting pan for Christmas dinner. Unfortunately, that requires her to interact with Marc—her best friend’s troublemaking brother, who’s now a tech billionaire. He’s the one who got away. She’s the one who broke his heart. Outside, a howling blizzard. Inside, a crackling fire. Suddenly, being snowbound with the man she never expected to see again might not be such a bad way to spend a winter’s night.

Historia
All Evie Cruz wants for Christmas is a nap. And maybe some ornaments for her naked Christmas tree. And while she’s making a list, she wouldn’t mind unwrapping her sexy upstairs neighbor like a present. Luckily, the building’s Santa-themed party and a surprise sprig of mistletoe give her just the opening she needs to make all her wishes come true.

A quick and fun listen for the festive season. I wasn't completely captured by the story, but the narrators did a great job bringing the characters to life.

Historia
He was my boss, my brother’s friend, a Widow, an ex-felon, and a man I’d seen casually with a handful of women. But he was everything that gripped me, both the good and the bad. Worst case scenario if things turned awkward between us, I could go somewhere else. I’d gotten over epic heartbreak before, one more wouldn’t kill me. After moving to Austin following six months of unemployment back home, Iris Taylor knows she should be glad to have landed a job so quickly... even if the business is owned by a member of the same motorcycle club her estranged father used to belong to.

Forever my favorite by Mariana Zapata.

Sadly, I don't have much to share besides the fact that Under Locke has always been my favorite by Mariana since day one. And of course, I enjoyed the audio immensely. Ava Erickson, Bradley Ford, and Sebastian York were solid choices for narration. Forever will be a re-read.

Historia
Sometimes, the worst day of your life happens, and you have to figure out how to live after it. So Clementine forms a plan to keep her heart safe: work hard, find someone decent to love, and try to remember to chase the moon. The last one is silly and obviously metaphorical, but her aunt always told her that you needed at least one big dream to keep going. And for the last year, that plan has gone off without a hitch. Mostly. The love part is hard because she doesn’t want to get too close to anyone—she isn’t sure her heart can take it.

Ashley Poston with another win!
Revisado: 10-06-24
Seriously, make all her books into movies, I'd watch them repeatedly. I'm just such a fan of her writing and of course, I loved this one. The moments between Clementine and Ewan were always my favorites. However, past Ewan and present, while being so different, I was hoping we'd get to learn more of present him. I feel like we just needed a little bit of time for everything and everyone. And it definitely would have been a 5.
I wasn't expecting the close door, but I was okay with it.
Truly enjoyed this one and I really loved what the narrator, Brittany Pressley, did to make book come to life.
Ready for the next Poston book!

- Vow of Revenge
- A Novel (The Mafia Academy Series, Book 1)
- De: P. Rayne
- Narrado por: Lance Greenfield, Meg Sylvan
Loved Mirabella's fierceness.
Revisado: 09-07-24
It's been a while since I've read from this author duo, but mafia romances are my weakness and I'll read as many as I can.
While this isn't quite the dark romances that I'm used to reading, this might be the perfect amount for those that are unsure about DR, but love the other work from P. Rayne.
Mirabella was an absolute win, she wanted an equal and a choice. And wasn't going to give in to anyone, not even for love. I loved her fire and just everything about her.
And yes, you guessed it, I struggled with Marcelo. And if a man that I'm with and have feelings already established, doesn't defend me when his friends compare me to a mutt. Game over. While we do see a little growth with his character by the end, I wasn't enamored with him as I hoped I would be.
Overall, wasn't too bad of a start for this series and I'm interested to see what comes of it. I have the other books ready to go.
Narration: I thought Meg Sylvan was a solid choice for Mirabella, really brought the character's fierceness through. While I liked Lance Greenfield's voice, I'm not sure if they were the right fit for Marcelo.

Wish I read this series first.
Revisado: 02-24-24
I enjoyed this series immensely more than a previous one that I've read by SJM. There's definitely quite a bit going on with this one and the multiple POVs. I'm not sure if I liked the way with how it was written because I would have rather we just focused on Bryce and Hunt and have Ruhn actually be more of a side character. And have his book later on. I thoroughly enjoyed Elizabeth Evan's narration, I was thoroughly engaged the entire time. I'm looking forward to reading the next one.

Historia
Is it really wrong to want to murder your boss? Dylan has worked for Gabe for two years. Two long years of sarcastic comments. Two long years of insults, and having to redo the coffee pot four times in the mornings to meet his exacting standards. Not surprisingly he has devoted a lot of time to increasingly inventive ways to murder Gabe. From stabbing him with a cake fork, to garrotting him with his expensive tie, Dylan has thought of everything. However, a chance encounter opens his eyes to the attraction that has always lain between them, concealed by the layers of antipathy.

First and definitely not my last read by Lily.
Revisado: 02-03-24
Such a solid workplace romance! Truly the enemies to lovers thing, I had my hang-ups with Gabe because he truly was so mean to Dylan. The entire time I was like just leave him! I think the audio helped with elevating this read for me because if I read it with my eyes, I would have felt differently.
A solid four for and look forward to more.

Historia
Daisy is a girl coming of age in LA in the late '60s, sneaking into clubs on the Sunset Strip, sleeping with rock stars, and dreaming of singing at the Whisky a Go Go. The sex and drugs are thrilling, but it’s the rock and roll she loves most. By the time she’s 20, her voice is getting noticed, and she has the kind of heedless beauty that makes people do crazy things. Also getting noticed is The Six, a band led by the brooding Billy Dunne.

The audiobook that truly started my audio journey!
Revisado: 02-03-24
When you read a book or listen, in this case, that’s outside of your genre and it absolutely blows you away?! That’s exactly what happened with Daisy Jones & The Six. I did not expect to like this one at all, but I loved every single minute of this audiobook.
I am so glad that I dove in and listened to the audio instead of reading. I’m a romance lover through and through, and I truly didn’t think I would have enjoyed this if I chose to listen to the audio.
This story was absolutely everything, the author did a phenomenal job weaving Daisy and the band The Six’s story all into one. With a full cast on the audiobook, you can’t help but just be so enthralled with every character’s story. The band history that Taylor Jenkins Reid comes up with for this book is absolutely insane and it constantly made me question if this was actually a true story. All the Stevie Nicks vibes and was like can it be? Nope, it’s all fiction and that just makes TJR a mastermind in this genre.
To me, this story was absolutely memorable, it’s just one of those that’ll stick with you forever. I can’t say that I loved these characters, but every single one of them had something to bring to the story. Highly recommend the audiobook for anyone that’s been on the fence.
