UNDER A DIFFERENT SKY BY LINDSEY ILER

This is the first book I've read from Lindsey Iler and I really enjoyed it! It's got a hint of forbidden, a lot of angst, and a killer cliffhanger! Don't worry though, the duet is finally complete!
Rating: ★★★★
​Release Date: June 10, 2019
Genre: New Adult Romance

Series: Hand Over My Heart Duet #1
Pages: 231 pages
Format: eBook. Borrowed from Kindle Unlimited. 
My life is a mess.

I'm walking around with a black eye. My position on the hockey team is questionable at best, and if that’s not bad enough, I think I'm falling for my dead girlfriend's best friend.

Every day, it's a fight to feel alive, and yet, I drink to numb the pain. Everyone is standing back, watching me fall apart.

Everyone except Hannah. No matter how many times I push, she's there to pull me back. She refuses to let me spiral any deeper. And after one kiss—she’s impossible to ignore.

Unfortunately, it seems she and I aren’t the only thing being kept a secret.

I couldn't. 
I just wasn't made that way.

Teased her.
Taunted her.
Worshipped her.
Until... I broke her.
My best friend. 
My savior. 
My girl.

Kennedy Fox is quickly making their way to my top favorite authors spot as each and every book of theirs that I read, I fall in love with. If you haven't had the chance to read this duet you are missing out! I highly recommend it. 
Rating: ★★★★★
​Release Date: September 10, 2019
Genre: Roommates-to-Lovers

Series: The Mason & Sophie Duet #2
Pages: 312 pages
Format: eBook. ARC. 
I knew within moments of meeting Mason Holt that he would change my life forever.
I just didn’t realize how much.

As my world spirals out of control, he continues to stay by my side, protecting and taking care of me. Being just friends is all he’s been able to offer, that is until both of our lives are threatened. Now that our relationship is blossoming into something more, I can’t be what he needs even if I wished I could.
Bad timing strikes again.

When I think we can finally be together, someone threatens to tear us apart. I’m not the same girl Mason met three years ago, but I’m determined to fight for what I’ve always wanted--him.

**This is book 2 in the Mason & Sophie duet and must be read after Truly Mine. Recommended for ages 18+**

Written with You is the second book in the Regret Duet by Aly Martinez. You must read Written with Regret prior to this one! I enjoyed both book as a whole but wish it was one book. 
Rating: ★★★★
​Release Date: June 13, 2019
Genre: Contemporary Romance

Series: The Regret Duet #2
Pages: 214 pages
Format: eBook. Borrowed with Kindle Unlimited.  
When I was fifteen, a single bullet changed my life. I spent the next decade trying to outrun the devastation of my past, building an empire that would shield me from whatever life could throw at me.

But all the money in the world couldn’t help me when I found a screaming newborn abandoned on my doorstep.

I’d never wanted to be a father. Passing the sludge that ran through my veins down to an innocent child seemed like a tragedy. But there she was—pink cheeks, red hair, and mine.

Somehow, against all logic, that little girl became the best thing that ever happened to me. It was impossible to stay lost in the past when I was the only one who could protect her future.

Which is exactly why, when her mother came back four years later, I was ready for battle.

Format: eBook. Borrowed with KU. 
​Every little girl dreams of the fairytale. The one where the white knight rushes in to save her from the clutches of evil. They fall in love, have babies, and live happily ever after. 

By that definition, my life should have been a fairytale too. 

When I was eight years old, Caven Hunt saved me from the worst kind of evil to walk the Earth. It didn’t matter that I was a kid. I fell in love with him all the same. 

But that was where my fairytale ended. 

Years later, a one-night stand during the darkest time imaginable gave us a little girl. It was nothing compared to the pitch black that consumed me when I was forced to leave her with Caven for good. 

At the end of every fairytale, the happily-ever-after is the one thing

This book is pure erotic romance. Every other page is filled with sex and unfortunately, it just wasn't my cup of tea. The only thing I enjoyed was seeing a forbidden, student/teacher romance.

Erin cleans Mr. Morris's house twice a week to pay her tuition. The reclusive ex-soldier intimidates her, but she can't help but feel sympathy for him. Then she walks in on him touching himself, and she has much darker, much more sensual feelings.

And a beastly professor with scars he can't hide...

Blake Morris knows he's scarred both inside and out. He's reclusive and surly. Nowhere near good enough for the smart and beautiful young woman who cleans his house.

Baby Mine is an unexpected, emotional read and I loved it! I fell hard for this story and am eagerly awaiting the conclusion to Hunter and Lennon's story! That being said, this book is the first in a duet which must be read in order!
Rating: ★★★★★
​Release Date: April 23, 2019
Genre: Contemporary Romance

Series: The Roommates Duet #1
Pages: 342 pages
Format: eBook. ARC. 
​I saw her first.
Blonde. Gorgeous. Feisty.
I was smitten. 


But it didn’t matter because she chose him and he was my best friend and roommate. I’d never be able to compete with that, so I pushed her away instead. It was easy when she lived hours away, and I didn’t have to see her every day, but then she moved in with us. 
Now, I’m screwed.

To her singing in the shower every morning, dancing in the kitchen while she makes coffee, and doing yoga in our living room, I can’t stop thinking about her in all the wrong ways. She’s not mine and never will be, but that doesn’t stop me from wanting to push her against a wall and claim her mouth.

This post will contain the review for both books in the Beautiful Hearts Duet by Emma Scott. If you haven't read these two books yet I highly recommend doing so. They are beautiful, emotional, and so damn heartwarming once the story completes.

Format: eBook. Borrowed from Kindle Unlimited. 
​
I fell for Connor Drake. I didn’t want to; I fought against it, but I fell in love with him anyway. With his words. With his poetry. With him. The gentleness and beauty of his soul that speaks directly to mine. He writes as if he can feel my heart, hear its cadence and compose the exact right lyrics to accompany every beat and flow. 

I’m in love with Connor…so why do I feel an inexplicable pull to his best friend, Weston? Grouchy, sullen, brooding Weston Turner, who could cut you down with a look. Fiercely intelligent with a razor sharp wit and acid tongue, he’s the exact opposite of Connor in every way, and yet there’s electricity in the air between us. The thorny barbs Weston wraps around himself can’t keep me away. 

But the more time I spend with these men, the more tangled and confused my emotions become. When they both sign up for the Army Reserves during a time of increasing strife in the Middle East,

Meghan Quinn has outdone herself with this series. I adored it so much! I would recommend reading the Blue Line Duet before this one to get a look at the emotion surrounding this duet, but you don't technically have to! Highly recommended!

For better or for worse,'til death do us part . . .

The better captured me; she's who stole my heart. 
And made me realize I couldn’t live without this woman.
The worse of her took my breath away--kicked me when I was down and twisted me into a million knots.

When I first met her, I thought she was someone I would never see again. 
The second time I ran into her, it was a random coincidence.
The third? 
I didn’t know it at the time, but she was the girl I was going to marry.

But life isn’t always perfect. You have to take the better and the

This book, as part of an overall duet, is absolutely stunning! Meghan has hit the mark on this book and made my heart feel full. I loved it to pieces!
Rating: ★★★★★
​Release Date: July 1, 2018
Genre: Military Romance.

Pages: 310 pages

This isn’t a story about a love triangle. There is no triangle involved. 
This isn’t a story about an accidental pregnancy. Although having a baby with her . . . I would. 
This isn’t a story about lies and deception, even though at times I’ve lied to myself. 

No, this is my story.

A story about sacrifice. 
A story about a man who fell in love with the wrong girl. 
A story I wish I never had to tell. 

This is a story about the true meaning of the downside of love. ​
