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 October 20th-31st

  I read two arcs in the second part of October. They were both wonderful reads. Obviously, my personal life has impacted my reading as I only finished 5 books this month. I can't tell you when the last time was that I read so little. The positive part was all of the books I read this month were very good. Until next time, happy reading! Can't Believe You Came (Mile High Matched #5)  by Christina Hovland ARC: Release Date- 10/24/2025 #CinnamonRollHero #OppositesAttract #ARC I am voluntarily writing this honest review after receiving an advance reader copy of the book. It is written in third person, can be read as a standalone, and ends with a HEA. I have loved this series from the beginning. It is wonderful to finally see the last Dvornakov get their HEA. Zach is a cinnamon roll hero to love. He falls first, fast, and hard for Piper. Piper, who is type A personified, does her best to control every situation she is in and Zach is an outlier. His calm and steady presence c...

Book reviews for books read January 19th-24th

  Happy weekend! I decided that since I hit 7 books this week I should just go ahead and push this out today. I will read at least one more today but you will see that review next week. I had a gap between ARCs! I went back and finished the Kings of Avalier series that I started in February 2024.  SO GOOD! They are new adult, which is not my norm, but the fantasy realm made them un-put-down-able. I am thrilled to meet the author in Phoenix in a couple of weeks. I read the next book in the J. Saman series I am making my way through. Those Abbot-Fritz brothers are something else. I adore that whole family. I read four novellas with 2 of those being new-to-me authors. Coco Miller's book was a fun billionaire read, and Regine Abel's Prime Mating Agency was GOLD. You will see in my review that I loved this first in series book, and I am super excited to read the rest of them. I read a wonderful mafia novella by Lee Savino. He is truly obsessed with the girl without it being a terri...

Book reviews for books read September 21st-30th

  This review post is late due to a family emergency that happened about ten days ago now. I feel like I am finally getting my self together a little bit today and was able to put this together finally. During the last week of the month, I read one ARC, one book for book club, and three smutty novellas. Check out my reviews and add so books to your TBR today. My month in review. September turned out to be a good reading month for me. Most of the ARCs that I read that released in September, I actually read in August. That freed up some time to read from my TBR and finish two reading challenges. During the last week of the month, I finished the A to Z reading challenge. Earlier this month, I completed the B.A.N.G. Book Club reading challenge. I also took this as an opportunity to read new-to-me authors and fit in several novellas. Out of the 23 books I read and the 2 I did not finish, I read 19 new-to-me authors! That has to be a record for me. There is a place for smutty insta-love ...
