My Tour Stop for The Marriage Trap by Sheryl Browne!

I was granted early access to The Marriage Trap, courtesy of NetGalley in exchange for my honest review.  This book will be published by Bookouture, released on 07/30/19.

Karla's husband Jason packs his bags and leaves, claiming to be in love with someone else.  His words crush her, and the stable mom loses her grip on reality as her life turns upside down.

 I know that's a short synopsis, but I really can't say much else without seriously spoiling the book.  I mean this in the best way possible, but reading this book was like watching a car crash.  You know you shouldn't, but you can't turn away.  The relationships in the book were all dumpster fires.  Everyone is so incredibly flawed, minus Karla and Jason's kids.  I found myself reading with my mouth open so many times.  There was SO MUCH DRAMA, and I was there for all of it.  I felt like a neighbor watching a fight happen in the street, creeping through my blinds to peek into their lives.

 I have now compared this plot to a dumpster fire and a car crash, but I mean that in the best way.  I could not put this book down.  I read it in less than 24 hours.  It stressed me out so much.  When I finished, it felt like I could breathe again.  It felt like the family secrets were MY secrets.  Every time I thought it couldn't get worse or more stressful, it did.  This book had me on the edge of my seat, and I'm so glad I was able to be part of the ride.

 Another great book from Bookouture.  Seriously.  If you're into thrillers, pick this one up immediately.  It's out now!

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 ...

Lucy Dawson's Don't Ever Tell

Don't Ever Tell was written by Lucy Dawson and published by Bookouture, released on 06/25/19.  I was granted early access to this book in exchange for my honest review.  Because I got too click happy on NetGalley, I'm just now getting to it.  I promise-one day I'll be caught up on my reading!!! Charlotte seems to have the perfect job, family, and life.  Only she knows that her marriage is crumbling, and her husband is oblivious to the fact(because of COURSE he is).  Little does he know that she has hired someone to be her, and when he realizes just who that person is life will change as they know it. The synopsis sounds like a typical thriller, but this one was more enjoyable than most.  The writing allowed me to put some pieces of the puzzle together, just enough to keep me interested and reading.  I couldn't put this book down.  Charlotte was so easy to relate to, especially if you've ever been in an unhappy relationship.  I loved th...

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.
