The Dancing Girls-M.M. Chouinard

I was granted early access for The Dancing Girls by M.M. Chouinard through NetGalley. Bookouture is set to publish this book on 05/15/19. If you are in the mood for a serial killer thriller, this is definitely for you!

Detective Jo Fournier is thrown into a mind boggling case when Jeanine Hammond is found dead in her hotel room with strange strangulation marks. This case soon connects to several cold cases and Jo begs for help solving them. The story follows her as the FBI rejects her, the suspect outsmarts her, and she starts to feel in over her head.

I actually forced myself to read this slower so that I could savor the book. I do wish that there had been more information about the killer's past, and the same with the person he meets towards the end of the book. I would have liked a little less computer detail and a little more interaction from the different victims. I liked the resolution but it felt a little bit rushed. I did love the use of Karma in the end. Overall I enjoyed Jo's detective style. She is the type of character I would follow through multiple books. Cover wise, I think the art is beautiful but I don't necessarily think it fits the story.

If you like serial killer murder mysteries, pick this book up when it is released on 05/15/19! Thank you to NetGalley and Bookouture for the advance copy! I can't wait for more books in the series!

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 ...

Wine or Lose by Amanda Chaperon

I was so freaking disappointed by this book. I bought the alternate covers (which are absolutely stunning) at Romance Con and I expected to read about (PER THE AUTHOR) small town charm, office rivals to lovers, and a happily ever after. Unfortunately for me, I didn’t feel like I got any of that. The first problem lies within the setup of the relationship. Amara and Cal meet in a club, fall in love after like 2 hours, and go back to his place before Amara realizes that Cal is the new CFO that her dad just hired for their family’s winery. He calls her a party princess, she storms out, and fast forward to five years later, when they’re both still holding onto that. How have you seriously not gotten over that one interaction in the span of FIVE YEARS? Second, Cal hates women. You can’t convince me otherwise. When he was trying to prevent Amara’s father from giving her the company, he ONLY talked to her father, shook his hand, and plead his case with him. He paid no attention to ...

Twisted by Emily McIntire

Man, I’m obsessed with these books. The Never After series is probably my favorite series of all time because each story is just SO 👏 GOOD 👏 This one is an Aladdin reimagining, where the Aladdin character is a whiney little bitch, the Jafar character, Julian Faraci is a snack, and poor little Yasmin Karam has no choice but to marry him and suffer under the weight of his muscles and good looks. I devoured this one. If there was one thing I could ask for in my life, it’s that Emily McIntire write more of these stories because I’m almost at the end of the series and I’m not ready. 😭 If you’re into dark romance and alternative views to the fairytales we grew up with, run, don’t walk to these. If you don’t like them, read them anyway. She just might surprise you.
