I read Not What I Expected but that’s it so far. I have read a few from Kate Cantetbary, but not the one that’s included here. There are a few authors I’ve never heard of, and a few I’ve heard the name, but never read them before. I always love a box set, and even better when they’re FREE! Check this one out, I don’t know how long it will be free, so grab it now.
Sorry for short notice, but the first 3 books are free, possibly today only
I started an arc (advanced reader copy) of this book, and really struggled to get into it. Somewhere around chapter 3 I got bored and actually put it down and read another book. I picked it back up, and in the middle of chapter 4, I still couldn’t get into it. I was going to skim it, but then I just jumped to the last 2 chapters to see how it ended. I’ve never actually done that before, but I’m glad I dis. It was definitely better in those last 2 chapters, enough that it made me go back to read more. Then at about the halfway mark, I stopped, read another book, then came back. I normally don’t feel so compelled to put this much effort into finishing a book, but for whatever reason I did, maybe I felt obligated since it was an arc. The first sex scene was pretty impressive, one of the better ones I’ve read. Not overly graphic, but more poignant, more meaningful to them as a couple then just writing about the act. I did find it interesting that I don’t recall any swearing, yet there was plenty of sex, so you can’t classify it as clean. I ended up enjoying it more than I expected, the ending was really sweet. It was worth powering throug. I ended up giving it 3 stars, which I know a lot of people don’t see it as favorable, but with the rough start, I don’t think it’s a bad review. It could be just me, you may read it and have no trouble diving in.
I’ve read the first two books in the series and have been looking forward to this one for a while. I was disappointed to start reading it and saw that it was enemies to lovers. Not my favorite. But this was more than that thank goodness. But let me get the complaints out of the way first. There were abrupt scene changes. Several times I was wait, what? Oh, okay. And the messages back and forth, sometimes it was hard to tell who was saying what. They weren’t labeled in any way. It would have been nice to have more distinction.
I was able to pick this one as an arc copy. Get yours now free with Kindle Unlimited
I have loved this series from book one. It’s all in Kindle Unlimited, but I own every single book. I love the family these people have created, how they all connect with each other. It’s very emotional, but such a satisfying read. Book 4 is free now, pick it up today.
I’ve spent the last 2 weeks or so reading thru this series. The final book was released not too long ago and I’ve seen it mentioned here and there, in reader groups and authors newsletters so I decided to give it a go. The whole series is in Kindle Unlimited, and the first 3 books are in are box set, which is great that you can load up the whole series without using up all of your KU slots. These books are all clean but they dance a fine line. No, there’s no closed door sex, but there is a whole lot of chemistry. And there are a couple of first kiss scenes that are pretty darn amazing. There are hints of swearing, but again, clean. I think it’s a great balance to not be prude like, but not offensive to those that don’t like to read anything over PG-13. Like any series, there were some books I enjoyed more than others. There is age gap, enemies to more, boss/employee, which are some of my least favorite tropes, but I loved all of the characters. And they all stay relevant with each book, no one feels forgotten about. The last book felt the longest, but in a complete the series appropriate way. I laughed all along the story, but honestly got sad at the end. I’m not spoiling, but I’m so glad she added the bonus epilogue at the end, it helped. I don’t want you to think it didn’t have a nice happy ending, but I think it stirred up some things for me personally that just made me sad. I also downloaded a little bonus scene, that as of me writing up this post, I haven’t actually read yet, but can’t wait to. I’m kind of holding on to it, because I loved these characters, and I’m not quite ready to let them go. I’ve downloaded another box set fom Emma St. Clair to read because this one was so good. I just hope it lives up to my expectations!

I’ve written about Jessie Gussman before, and another one of her books is free. This is the first book of her latest series, and it’s about a married couple. So far the rest of the series is about new couples getting together, but I do enjoy a married book every so often. As with all of her books, they are clean, and have some religion to them.
Wow. I can say I’ve not read a book quite like this before. This is not a cookie cutter romance, i did not find it predictable at all. I legit had no idea what was going to happen, how things were going to end. I read book 2 from this series and I really enjoyed it (When Morning Comes), so I jumped at the chance to read this one. There were some tears, I won’t lie. I really need to go back and read book one (since it was referenced in both books I’ve read), and I’m already anxious to read book 4. This was so emotional in ways I did not expect with a couple of twists that i didn’t see coming. It was a very good read especially if you’re looking for something a little different. Calling it a single dad romance really doesn’t do it justice, since that’s just a small part of the story.
