My Review: 
The End of Us (Love in Isolation, #3)The End of Us by Kennedy Fox
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Piper has worked hard to build her online brand as an influencer, something her family wishes she wouldn’t do since they are wealthy. I love that Piper doesn’t take her family’s money for granted and wants to build a career for herself. What she doesn’t expect is to have a stalker fan that puts her life at risk. Tristan is the strong, silent type in his role as Piper’s bodyguard. He knows he can’t mix business with pleasure because if he loses focus, it could cost Piper her life. When her stalker, Jack, gets too close at her sister’s wedding, Tristan takes extreme measures by taking her to his family’s beach house to hide out. Suddenly being together around the clock allows this duo to get honest and open up to each other. There are so many fun moments as they learn to navigate sharing a house while the threat of Jack looms in the background. Getting to peel back each other’s layers and walls gave me a wonderfully sexy romance for this amazing couple. I voluntarily read an ARC of this book and this is my honest review.

New Release & Review: My Summer in Seoul by Rachel Van Dyken


 My Summer In Seoul by Rachel Van Dyken is now live!
 

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Rachel Van Dyken comes a standalone new adult romance set in the competitive world of K-pop.
It's not all K-dramas and happily ever afters.
Intern with Korea's number one record label? Yes, please.
Find out there's a huge scandal I need to help "manage"... not so much.
Add in the fact that I don't recognize the "superstars" of the label and think they're interns...
And my dream job quickly becomes more of a nightmare.
But I'm in Seoul, the one place that is beginning to feel more and more like home...
Except it isn't home, and the drama surrounding the biggest K-pop group in the world, SWT, is consuming my every moment.
Spoiler alert. They hate me.
Everything I do is wrong: wrong clothes, wrong honorifics, wrong manners.
Till the leader of SWT takes pity on me.
But pity is dangerous when it comes from someone as beautiful as him.
Every SWT member is gorgeous, perfect, and cultivated to be an idol... lethal to a girl's heart.
And sanity.
But fame plus a perfect face and voice don't equal an easy life. As their comeback nears, the stakes rise higher.
Suicide watch...
Angry fans...
Threats...
All I want to do is survive.
But the price for survival might mean losing my heart.
And like a character in a K-drama, I'm not sure if there will be an actual happily ever after...
Or simply a lesson learned.

My Review:
My Summer in SeoulMy Summer in Seoul by Rachel Van Dyken
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I’ve been captivated by the K-pop world through this amazing story. Grace is graduating and her dream is work in the music industry but she is struggling to get her foot in the door anywhere. When her Uncle Sui calls and offers her an internship with his company in Seoul, she jumps at the chance. What she gets is a crazy, intense ride. From the moment she lands in Seoul, it’s a land of culture shock and full-on work. Everyone expected her to know the traditions and rules but her father didn’t teach her the Korean ways. As she works to keep one of the hottest K-pop bands on schedule and away from scandal as they prepare for their comeback, she has to learn the hard way how to navigate the rules. For Lucas, he knows how to hide what he’s really feeling as he pursues his passion for music. But even he struggles as he deals with a scandal and family pressure while living the K-pop dream. Meeting Grace rattles his resolve. He wants to hate her but there is something about this uncouth, unfiltered and bold American. I love how this story fully immersed me in the K-pop universe and allowed me to feel like I was part of the story as I rode every emotion these characters lived. I voluntarily read an ARC of this book and this is my honest review.

New Release & Review: Grand Escape by Rachel Blaufeld

 

Grand Escape by Rachel Blaufeld is now live!

With sultry beach vibes, Caribbean tunes playing in the background, and the smell of coconut and money all around, welcome to the Grand Escape.

Blond and beautiful Rylan needed to escape her life, so she ran off to a job in paradise. Surrounded by fresh salt air and the ocean waves lapping in the background, she now mixes drinks better than any other bartender at the Grand Escape.

It's the perfect situation for a commitment-phobic woman, who wants to be nothing like the family she was born into. Each week, guests check in, spend time at her bar, and then go home.

Until the day some heartsick jerk who checked in under just his initial and last name sits down at her bar.

With sad eyes and a gritty voice, A. Stern is more than Rylan bargained for, so it's a good thing she no longer gets tangled up with men. But this lawyer by day, alpha by night, keeps pushing his way through the barricade she's built around her heart.

Thinking she knows why he's heartbroken, she's determined not to be his next victim, but he continues to shatter all her misconceptions.

With only a week until his vacation ends, can she avoid falling for the guy at the end of her bar? And can he manage to capture the heart of the only woman who has made him want to try again?

My Review:
Grand EscapeGrand Escape by Rachel Blaufeld
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Rylan has built a solid life for herself as a bartender in the Cayman Islands. She needed to break away from her parents preset path and obligations. What she doesn’t expect is for Adam to show up at her bar one day which has her bending her rules. Adam is all about his work and the guilt he carries about his sister’s death. Forced to take a vacation by his family, he ends up sitting down at Rylan’s bar. He encounters a super-sassy, funny and smart woman that wakes up feelings he had lost. But Rylan has her own rules and expectations and doesn’t believe there can be anything more than a temporary fling. Will Adam be able to convince her that love is possible? That she is worth fighting for? I loved the slow burn to their relationship. They both had to deal with the scars of their pasts before they could find a path to a future together. I voluntarily read an ARC of this book and this is my honest review.

Meet Rachel Blaufeld


A recent poll of her readers described Rachel as insightful, generous, articulate, and spunky. Originally a social worker, Rachel creates broken yet redeeming characters. She's been known to turn up the angst like cranking up the heat in the dead of winter.

A devout coffee drinker and doughnut eater, Rachel spends way too many hours in local coffee shops, downing the aforementioned goodies while she plots her ideas. Her tales may all come with a side of angst and naughtiness, but end as lusciously as her treats.

Rachel lives around the corner from her childhood home in Pennsylvania with her family and two beagles. Her obsessions include running, coffee, basketball, icing-filled doughnuts, antiheroes, and mighty fine epilogues.
