This book broke my reading drought! Wouldn’t you know it, my brain fixated on the non-stop news associated with the current pandemic when I could be ramping up my reading time. My godsend came via the plethora of books authors are discounting / offering for free at the moment. In among my latest book haul… Read more »

Accidental Secrets by Dana Mason
I chose to read Accidental Secrets because I am a sucker for surprise babies and second chance romances. In this story the baby is a teenager and the romance between her parents doesn’t kick in for some time. This is a multi-level relationship driven story where the majority of the characters have a dramatic past…. Read more »
Bene by Bethany-Kris
Guzzi Goodness! Bene was my favourite twin. Lucky for him (and me) his story picks up after he and his twin Beni have been forced to grow up. Before they were put in their place, I found both of them irritating. The grown-up version of Bene however was just the kind of man I adore… Read more »
Contempt by Bethany-kris
Loved it! Lucia and Renzo have been to hell and back since we last checked in on them in Harbor. I believe the title could have easily been Contempt and Contrition, for as much bitterness Lucia harbored, there were so many loved ones surrounding her trying to mend the bridges they had broken. It took… Read more »
Harbor by Bethany-Kris
Blind Love! The love of family is at the forefront of Ren and Lucia’s story. Lucia is prepared to blindly follow Ren to the ends of the earth because life without him is no longer possible. It’s important to have read Privilege before Harbor as this book picks up where the last book ends. Family… Read more »
Sweetest Sorrow by J.M Darhower
Wow! Sometimes a book leaves me with such a buzz that I don’t stop and write a review. Unbelievable but true. Why? I get greedy and reach for another book to maintain the euphoria. This is fraught with danger when you do the same at the end of the next book. That’s what happened when I… Read more »
Privilege by Bethany-Kris
Bookbuzzed! Ever read a book that you instantly fell in love with and got disappointed each time you glanced at how many pages remained? Well that was me throughout this book. I could have easily devoured this book in one sitting but life demanded I read it over two sittings. Thank goodness the next book Harbor… Read more »
Naz & Roz by Bethany-Kris
From the first chapter until the last of Naz & Roz’s story I was hooked. My buzz ignited and I was left hankering for my next 5 star fix! Theirs is a story of young love steeped in maturity. Naz has his feet firmly in the family business while Roz is pursuing her passion as… Read more »
Harlow by Karyn Rae
I was drawn to Harlow’s book by the premise of a second chance romance that takes place in sync with the heroine hitting 40. It’s a time when possibilities and fun times are all there to be embraced. Add to the mix a marriage breakup and the story had the scope for a plethora of… Read more »
Dancing in the Dark by T.L. Martin
Dancing in the Dark began with a brutal introduction, to the extent I reconsidered whether I wanted to continue reading. I only continued because I had joined a buddy read in a dark readers group. If I chose to stop reading, I needed to justify why and “the content made me squirm” didn’t seem like… Read more »
