Book reviews from the week of July 10th

 


I only read one ARC this week, but it was amazing.  It is probably the longest book author duo Max Monroe has written.  I loved every second of it and ended up savoring every word.  This series was a real joy to read and I definitely recommend it.


The Redo (Winslow Brothers #4) by Max Monroe

ARC: Release Date- 07/17/2022

5 STARS

Remy finally gets his HEA!!!!  I am so excited!  I have been waiting for Remy to find love since I met him in Scoring the Billionaire when I read it the first time back in 2018.  Maria is perfect for him.  Their story is written in first person from an alternating dual POV.

Remy, oldest Winslow brother, is 44 when he gets stuck in an elevator with a very pregnant woman who turns out to be his old high school sweetheart.  Maria, 42, is a fierce professional realtor who specializes in expensive NYC real estate and owns her own firm.  When she gets stuck with Remy she almost to term with her pregnancy.  They catch up some, but Maria’s life is complicated.  That does not stop Remy from pursuing contact with her.

I adore Remy: always have.  Maria has a heartbreaking back story. I loved her and she was perfect for Remy.   I loved that she knew him so well when he was a more lighthearted, yet always responsible boy.  I loved that he was her first, and the trust they had in each other then.   There are many humorous moments over the course of the story.  There is plenty of heat between these two also.  Their intimate scenes are packed with emotion and the longing for more.  I really enjoyed how their families were so connected when they were young, and how that paves the way for Maria to be easily welcomed back into the Winslow clan with her baby.  And Remy with the baby?  You guys!!!!  You need to read that.  HOT. HOT. HOT.  Maria seriously never stood a chance at getting away.

Reading all the Winslow brothers together and in love was special.  Even Mama Winslow has found her groove.  Lexi and her relationship with Remy is integral to Remy’s person and his comfort with the baby.  I also love the relationship that is formed between Lexi and Maria: truly special.  This was a fantastic read.  It makes me want to reread the whole series all over again back-to-back.  There are surprises along the way, which I will not share.  The bonus epilogues are true perfection: they wrap up this series in a way I never expected but loved with all my heart.  This author duo keeps getting better and better.  I highly recommend this series.

Book reviews for books read May 3rd - May 10th

  Happy weekend!  I read two ARCs this week. They were both very different and both very good. Marika Ray's new book is going to be the perfect summer read. Take it to the lake or the beach and fully enjoy the quirky romance between Maple and Holt. I promise you will adore the meddling seniors along the way. Then I read an arc by a debut author and it knocked  my socks off. When was the last time you got a book hangover from a brand new author? Yeah, it is a rare thing but it happened to me this week.  Check my reviews and add these to your TBR. You wont be sorry. Until next time, happy reading.

  I read three ARCs and 2 books from my TBR in the last 2 weeks. I feel good about that considering that life at home has been pretty full lately. May has been an excellent reading month for me. There are so many good releases right now, it is impossible for me to keep up. These are all worth adding to your TBR. Check my reviews and add them to your list. Until next time, happy reading. Built To Last (Park Avenue Promise #3) by Lexi Blake ARC: Release Date- 05/27/2025 #EnemiesToLovers #Celebrity #Workplace  #ARC I am voluntarily leaving this honest review after receiving an advance reader copy of the book. This is the third book in the series, and it is written in first person from Harper’s POV. This book is driven heavily by dialogue, and I personally did not miss having the male POV. Though it fully contains the love story of Harper and Reid, I think readers will gain the most value from reading this series in order. The friendship and found family relationship between Ivy, ...

  I can't believe it is June already! This last week of May I found myself binging a series by Swati M.H. I have made working on author backlists one of my goals this year. Next weekend I will be assisting this wonderful lady at the HEA Reader event. In an effort to finish reading the books in her backlist I grabbed this series from Kindle Unlimited. And then I didn't want to stop. I will be doing a series spotlight in a few days when I get my thoughts together. In the meantime, check out my reviews. Then add this whole series to your kindle and read it. I promise, you won't be sorry. Until next time, happy reading! My Beautiful Chaos (Feel the Beat #2) by Swati M.H. #FakeRelationship #SecondChance #FriendsToLovers Yes, no, maybe so? Make it a definite “Yes”. Written in first person from an alternating dual POV, this book stands on its own and ends with a HEA. After meeting both Jeena and Wayland in book one of this series, I was really looking forward to their stor...
