Barefoot Beach-the Perfect Summer Read!

Barefoot Beach was my first read by author Debbie Mason.  This book is being released by Forever (Grand Central Publishing) on 06/04/19.  A huge thanks to NetGalley for the advanced copy in exchange for my honest review.

It's wedding season at Harmony Harbor, and the natives are set on matching newcomer Theia Lawson with local hunk Marco DiRossi.  While Theia is trying to plan her exit from the town, Marco convinces her to "fake date" him for the summer to convince his family he's already fallen in love with her...BECAUSE NOTHING CAN GO WRONG THERE!

Secrets are revealed and Theia and Marco (who are now actually interested in one another) have to find a way to survive this if they want to end up on the path to true love.

Alright you guys.  I will be completely honest here.  These types of books are NOT my cup of tea.  That being said, I had so much FUN with this book.  I wanted to be Theia.  She was such a hard character to not fall for, despite everything going on around her.  She was tough, independent, and she gave Marco a run for his money.

And Marco...dear lord.  He was the type of guy every girl dreams of finding.  SWOON.

I'm glad I stepped out of my comfort zone on this one.  It was super enjoyable, and I was sad to see it end.  It's a perfect summer book, so be sure to pick this up on 06/04 to read at by the pool, at the beach, or waiting on your kid's summer camp activities to end! 💜

Is One Truly the Loneliest Number?

I was given a digital copy of One? by Jennifer L. Cahill.  She reached out to me through Twitter, and she was so sweet.  I couldn't wait to dive into her book.💙 The Plot (From Goodreads): It's London in the mid-noughties before Facebook, iPhones and ubiquitous wifi. Zara has just moved to London for her first real job and struggles to find her feet in a big city with no instruction manual. Penelope works night and day in an investment bank with little or no time for love. At twenty-eight she is positively ancient as far as her mother is concerned and the pressure is on for her to settle down as the big 3-0 is looming. Charlie spends night and day with his band who are constantly teetering on the verge of greatness. Richard has relocated to London from his castle in Scotland in search of the one, and Alyx is barely in one place long enough to hold down a relationship let alone think about the future. One? follows the highs and lows of a group of twenty-somethings living ...

Athena's Choice by Adam Boostrom

I received my copy of Athena's Choice from the promotional team on Instagram in exchange for my honest review. The year is 2099, and men have been absent from the earth for almost 50 years after a virus accidentally wiped all of them from the earth.  There's a project attempting to bring men back and it has become quite controversial.  When the sabotaged project leads authorities to Athena, this completely normal teenager must decide if she wants to help find the culprit. This book was pretty interesting.  It read almost like a movie.  It's definitely something I would watch if there was ever an on screen translation.  The details and imagination of the author were fun to read.  Despite the fact that science fiction is not typically  my thing, I did enjoy my time spent reading it....right up until the end. Before I go any farther, I just have to say it.  The ending sucked.  I HATEDDD it.  It made me want to throw the book....

Heartless by Elsie Silver

Elsie Silver has once again proven why she’s an auto buy author for me after reading this book! Cade is SUCH A GRUMP and I love him so much for it. Reading book 1, Willa was easily one of my most favorite characters, and I frequently blew up my bestie’s phone with things like “Willa just said _____.” It’s no surprise to me that I also loved her in this story. I’m not huge on age gap romances for my own insane reasons, but I thought it was done well here. Overall, I loved everything about this book. I had an absolute blast while reading it, and it now sits on my shelf as one of my most treasured books.
