Sunny Shelly’s Review: Say You Love Me Again, by Carrie Aarons


🧡❤️ NEW ROCKSTAR ROMANCE ❤️🧡

Looking for an angsty, spicy rockstar romance? Say no more! Carrie Aarons’ just released Say You Love Me Again, and this book amazing! This is a rockstar romance between a divorced celebrity couple trying to co-parent while keeping their dirty secrets out of the press … all while still being tragically in love with one another.

BLURB:

Who wouldn’t jump at the chance to spend a few months on a concert tour traveling the country? Did I mention that the famous musician headlining it is the ex-husband who walked out on you?

When I met Levi Truin, we were young, rich, famous, and beautiful. Nothing could go wrong, we had the world at our fingertips. Except millions of dollars, marriage and a baby all before twenty-two isn’t all fun and games. And when my indiscretion caused it to come crashing down, we were just another Hollywood couple on the cutting room floor.

Seven years later, Levi and I are the poster children for exemplary co-parenting. Attending red carpet events in support of each other, Sunday night dinners for the sake of our daughter, and her private school functions where we save seats and make polite conversation. The articles paint us in the healthiest of lights, because none of them know the truth.

So when he wants to take our daughter on tour, I have a decision to make. Let her traipse around venues with a nanny, or tag along and somehow survive sleeping in a bunk below my ex for months.

We go on the road, taking our demons and heartbreaks with us. And as we spend nights together with the highway lights flashing past the windows, that familiar spark reignites. Old hurts are discussed, wounds I guard tight are exposed, and my ex-husband makes confessions I’ve been waiting years for. Against all odds, he might just be able to love me again.

But then the dirty details of our long ago breakup get leaked to the press, and the newly fledgling relationship might be doomed from the start.

Lies, silence, and miscommunication are the things that ripped us apart. Can we push past our scars to reunite our family after everything we’ve been through?

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 5 Stars

So. Much. Angst.

I have been a long-time reader of Carrie Aarons, and as much as I love and adore her lighthearted romances, I have always had a soft spot for one of her earlier novels, Down We’ll Come Baby. And Say You Love Me Again was very reminiscent of that angsty, marriage-in-jeopardy story.

Supermodel Sophie and rock god Levi were Hollywood’s It Couple. But their marriage fell apart within months of their daughter Hart’s birth. This book is set seven years after their split, and it is so full of angsty goodness between two people who so clearly still love and adore one another but don’t know how to get past their past. They have mastered co-parenting and putting on a happy face and have created a modern family unit for Hart. But while Levi and Sophie have individually moved on from the hurt of the past, they are both terrified to admit that to the other and confess that they still love the other. Their deep-buried secrets rise to the surface and explode when they are essentially trapped in a tour bus when Sophie and Hart join Levi on a music tour.

This book is wonderfully written, and I was up way too late reading it. Carrie Aarons masterfully wrote a story about postpartum depression and mental health. Sophie’s journey was difficult, and I appreciated how we got to see Levi’s side of things too. These characters both grew and became different people after the events that tore apart their marriage, and I adored going along for the ride as they journeyed back together!

Sunny Shelly’s Review: Slow Burn by Jessica Prince

Title: Slow Burn
Author: Jessica Prince
Series: Redemption

Contemporary Romance, Small Town, Single Dad, Nanny, Virgin Heroine

When she started on the path to her new life, she never could have guessed where it would lead her.

Deva Kent spent most of her life dreaming of escaping. She hated being forced to live among the Fellowship of the Enlightened, the small community closed off from the rest of the world, and was desperate to spread her wings and discover something new. When she applied to be a nanny for a single father and his two-year-old son, the Fellowship wasn’t happy, but she knew that was her fresh start. However, she never thought she’d end up falling for the man with more baggage than he could carry and storm clouds in his eyes.

Laeth Harker’s world fell off its axis the morning a past one-night-stand showed up on his doorstep with a son he knew nothing about in tow. He barely had his own life together and didn’t know the first thing about caring for a child. But after spending most of his life screwing everything up, he was determined to do right by his own flesh and blood. He just didn’t know where to start.

When Laeth hired Deva on as his son’s nanny, she was supposed to make his life easier. But the way he felt about her was the very definition of complicated.

Their feelings might have started off at a slow burn, but once it catches, it’s hot enough to set the world on fire.

**The Redemption series is a series of interconnected, standalone, small town romances.**

SLOW BURN

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 5 Stars

Another great addition to the Redemption series!’

Reading Deva and Laeth’s story made me think of what it would be like for sheltered Jana Duggar to be hired as the nanny for a hot single dad! Deva led such a sheltered life up on that mountain with the Fellowship community, but she had so much spunk and moxie despite her upbringing. She was strong and secure and had so much common sense despite her insecurities and not knowing anything about social norms.

Laeth’s life was turned upside down when a former one-night stand showed up at his door with a toddler and handed Cash over for him to raise. Still tormented from his time in the Army, Laeth had been living his life with a series of one-night stands while drowning his demons in booze. Now, he has a son to protect and live his life for. And it’s not long before Cash’s nanny also claims a place in his heart.

This slow-burn story captivated me from the start and I read it in a day. Deva and Laeth are perfectly matched; she calms him and he introduced her to a world she was just itching to be a part of. I thought Jessica Prince did a great job of writing all of Deva’s “firsts” — not just romantically, but her first time drinking coffee, driving a car, and being in the library… it was so well done! There is a real sense of made family among Deva and the people she meets in Redemption, like her friendship with Lyric the librarian, and Poppy and Farrah. I loved seeing another side to Bennett, and how Myra “adopted” Deva and saved her from a life of hell.

Slow Burn was a wonderful story to get lost in!

BLURRED LINES

Born and raised around Houston Texas, Jessica spent most of her life complaining about the heat, humidity, and all around pain in the ass weather. It was only as an adult that she quickly realized the cost of living in Houston made up for not being able to breathe when she stepped outside. That’s why God created central air, after all.

Jessica is the mother of a perfect little boy–she refuses to accept that he inherited her attitude and sarcastic nature no matter what her husband says.

In addition to being a wife and mom, she’s also a wino, a coffee addict, and an avid lover of all types of books–romances still being her all time favs. Her husband likes to claim that reading is her obsession but she just says it’s a passion…there’s a difference. Not that she’d expect a boy to understand.

Jessica has been writing since she was a little girl, but thankfully grew out of drawing her own pictures for her stories before ever publishing her first book. Because an artist she is not.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: Hail Mary by Kandi Steiner

 

Hail Mary by Kandi Steiner is now live!

 

Leo F*cking Hernandez.

North Boston University’s star running back, notorious bachelor, and number one on my people I would murder if I could get away with it list.

And now?

He’s my new roommate.

I used to think I loved him.

But that was before I hated him.

He doesn’t remember who I am, or how he made my life miserable for years. And before I unknowingly moved across the street from him, I couldn’t have cared less. I was living my life despite him and what happened that summer, chasing my dream of becoming a tattoo artist.

“The Pit,” as the university so gracefully nicknamed the house he lives in with three other football players, has served as nothing more than a pain in my ass and a constant reminder of the boy who broke my heart. Watching him parade his one-night-stands in and out of it never helped, either.

But with rent this cheap and so close to the tattoo shop, I’ve learned to ignore him — no matter how he’s tried to get under my skin.

At least, until this summer. Because when a water and mold disaster leaves me with no choice but to vacate my house, I have nowhere to go. And Leo Hernandez offers me a deal I can’t refuse.

Live at The Pit with him and the guys, free of charge, until my landlord fixes this mess.

Ignoring him was easy when I lived across the street, but in the same house, with him shirtless half the time and watching me with his cocky grin and searing gaze? It’s impossible.

Still, I have to try. I have to push him away, even when he makes it infuriatingly difficult to do so.

He’s broken my heart once.

I won’t let him do it again.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 5 Stars

I could not put this book down and I could not have loved Hail Mary any more! I really wanted to hate Leo after reading the first chapter, but then we got his version of the events that took place when he and Mary were 15 and… oh, my heart! He was just as torn up about things as she was! Of course, she didn’t know that, so her hate for Leo festered for seven years, and he was completely clueless about who Mary was to him.

I loved that the reveal happened mid-way through the book — and the payoff was so, so good, I read that chapter twice! — because I loved seeing how they worked as a couple. These two were so head-over-heels in love with each other, but both had their issues and scars as a result of their teenage years. Leo always felt like he had to “be on” and never felt comfortable in his own skin. And Mary was subjected to years of torment and bullying as a teen. Even after the truth all comes out, she still doesn’t fully trust Leo’s intentions because of how hurt she’d been in the past as a result of his actions. Or inactions, as the case was.

But watching this couple blossom was wonderful to read. There is a scene of SA in this book (not between Leo/Mary), which ultimately leads to The Conflict between the two. And it leads to a great reunion between them.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: Made For You by Natasha Madison

Release Date: February 14

From Wall Street Journal and USA TODAY bestselling author Natasha Madison comes a brand new stand-alone enemies-to-lovers grumpy/sunshine sports romance.

A spin-off from the Only One series

Vivienne
I did the last thing I ever expected to do. I bought a boat. A beautiful boat that was all mine to spend the summer on.
Only thing I was looking forward to was the calm being on the water brought me.
A place where I wasn’t a hockey dynasty princess or the only single girl of the family.
What I wasn’t looking forward to was the broody man in the boat next to me.
 
Xavier
I was at the top of my game two years ago.
Then it all came crashing down.
I hung up my skates and vowed to never play again.
I was good at hockey, but hockey was bad for me.
I planned to spend my life on my boat with my dog.
Alone. Happily alone.
Until she came along.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 5 Stars

For the second couple in Natasha Madison’s Made For series we get Xavier and Vivienne, and I just fell in love with this grumpy/sunshine couple! He is a broody loner, a former hockey pro, who lives alone with his dog, and his world gets turned upside down when hockey royalty moves into the yacht next slip over at the New York marina he now calls home.

They definitely did get off on the right foot, and that just made their falling in love that much sweeter because, dang, I love an enemies-to-lovers romance! Once Xavier started opening up to Vivienne, my heart cracked open for the cranky brute. He really had a rough go with things with the last team he played for before his fall from grace, and my heart went out to him. In return, he got to see a side of Vivienne that not many people know, and I loved how Xavier fangirled after finding out her secret!

This story has the perfect amount of spicy and sweetness. I also found this book to be a bit deeper than some of the other Natasha Madison books I’ve read simply because Xavier’s mental health is such a big part of this story. And I thought that Madison handled it wonderfully.

Bring on Abbie!

Meet Natasha Madison


When her nose isn’t buried in a book, or her fingers flying across a keyboard writing, she’s in the kitchen creating gourmet meals. You can find her, in four inch heels no less, in the car chauffeuring kids, or possibly with her husband scheduling his business trips. It’s a good thing her characters do what she says, because even her Labrador doesn’t listen to her…

Sunny Shelly’s Review: You Can’t Kiss the Nanny, Brady Banks by Piper Rayne

You Can’t Kiss the Nanny, Brady Banks by Piper Rayne is now live!

Brady Banks.

The Kingsmen’s best wide receiver.

Rich AF.

Hot as hell.

A stallion in the sack.

How do I know that last fact? I may have shared a one-night stand with him six months ago when I was rebounding from a broken heart.

I didn’t forget him, but I was done with him, until I discovered he’s the single dad of the boy I’ve been hired to nanny.

It’s near impossible to ignore my attraction to him now that we’re living under the same roof—but I have no choice.

First, this job pays well, and I need the money to move out of my parents’ spare room.

Second, he’s a public figure and there’s no room for me to get caught up in a scandal with him—I can’t disappoint my parents again.

Third, men like Brady were built to break hearts. I barely managed to piece mine back together after my failed engagement and Brady would do irreparable damage if I gave him the chance.

Let the longest three months of my life begin…

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 5 Stars

You can’t kiss the nanny, Brady Banks. Even if she was the one-night stand you haven’t been able to get out of your mind for months!

But of course, kissing the nanny is exactly what Brady Banks does! And Violet, the nanny, loves kissing him back! There is so much sexual tension simmering between these two, and it’s just compounded a hundred times over by the fact that they had a one-night stand months ago and are trying to ignore the undeniable chemistry between them!

This story is sexy and fun, a little bit forbidden, and a whole lot of steamy. Aaron Shedlock and Cindy Kay did a wonderful job with this duet narration (which I’ve decided is the best narration of all!).

Brady is a great dad, and Violet is wonderful with Theo. And Brady and his ex, Hannah, have a wonderful relationship co-parenting their son. I loved that, rather than the meddling ex-wife trope. Instead, we have Violet’s meddling mom! Seriously, she drove me bonkers. But I loved Brady’s mom, Lennon, and dad, Jasper, and hope we see more of them as owners of the Kingsmen in future books!

Sunny Shelly’s Review: Forget Me Not by Jess Taylor

Title: Forget Me Not
Series: Blossoming Beginnings #1
Author: Jess Taylor
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: February 14, 2023
BLURB
People Always Leave.
They’ve proved it time and time again for as long as I can remember. You’d figure I’d be used to it, but that feeling, the one of losing someone you love, it can be unbearable. That’s why it’s easiest to never let people too far in to begin with.
It’s the cardinal rule that I broke with one look into his deep blue eyes. I let him in. All of him. His touch, his love, his secrets, his lies. I thought it was the fairytale that I never believed in.
I thought that we were soulmates. But how could he be my soulmate when my soul was broken from the start?

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 5 Stars
I can’t believe Forget Me Not is a debut novel. Jess Taylor blew me away with this beautiful, deep, emotional romance between Kade and Logan.

This book was not easy to read — both Kade and Lo have some major trauma in their past. But their souls seek out one another because they are each other’s other half. And together, they find a way to heal. What starts out as a fake date becomes a consuming passion as they understand one another on a level that they haven’t found with anyone else. But Kade is keeping a secret from Logan that will threaten to destroy the happiness they’ve found together.

These two characters go on a lovely journey together. And there is such a nice development in Kade’s relationship with his sister/Lo’s roommate Demi. (I really hope that Demi and Asher get a story, because WOW!) The characters that Jess Taylor introduces us to are wonderful. There is a tight bond between the friends, and I loved getting to know the supporting characters as much as I loved getting to know Kade and Lo.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: Falling For The Rookie by Carina Rose

 Release Date: February 7

People rarely catch me off guard. I’m Collin St. James, after all, starting wide receiver for the Virginia Thunder, and playing football has kept me on my toes. But nothing could have prepared me to mentor our newest teammate, kicker Charlie Nicholson.

I wasn’t caught off guard because I had to take someone under my wing, or because Charlie was easily banging sixty-yard kicks through the uprights. It happened when the rookie’s silver helmet came off and long blonde hair spilled out. Completely baffled, I edged closer and took in the prettiest blue eyes I’d ever seen.

Charlie wasn’t only a complete knockout, she was also my younger sister’s closest friend, and when she smiled at me, I knew right then and there I was in serious trouble.

The last thing I needed was a distraction, but thanks to my gorgeous new teammate—and, to my surprise, my roommate—that was exactly what I got.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 4 Stars

Charlie had plans to be a physician when she got sidetracked by a brief career as a kicker for a pro football team. She happens to end up on the team that her best friend’s older brother, Collin, plays for and ends up as his roommate. Oh yeah, Charlie has always had a crush on Collin…

Collin isn’t exactly thrilled when he’s asked to mentor the team’s new kicker. And he’s absolutely stunned to find out that the kicker is the first female in the league. The awkwardness between Charlie and Collin is delicious at first, and it evolves into sizzling sexual tension before they eventually start to fall for each other.

When the unexpected happens and Charlie is forced to make a life-changing decision, will she decide that Collin is her future or her dream is still to go to med school? (There’s a lovely full-circle moment with a motivational quote that I adored.)

I loved the concept of this forced proximity, football romance, and I enjoyed the cameos from the other characters in this series. I received an advanced copy and voluntarily left a review.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: Don’t Let Me Break by Kelsie Rae

Don’t Let Me Break is LIVE!!!

Macklin and I are just friends.

And even that’s a stretch.

He saw me at my most vulnerable, and now the guy’s popping up left and right.

Pretty sure it’s because my friend is trying to set me up with him, but what do I know?

It’s not like I have much experience with guys.

And he’s…well, Macklin’s older, more experienced, and bluntly put?

Way out of my league.

He also has a heart of gold and the personality of a golden retriever, which makes me pricklier than ever.

I don’t have time for boys.

I don’t have time for friends.

But Macklin?

Well, I’m pretty sure I can add stubborn and persistent to his list of personality traits.

He thinks I’ll cave and give him a chance?

Clearly, the man doesn’t know me as well as he thinks he does.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 5 Stars

Macklin is the ultimate golden retriever book boyfriend! He is so swoony, and he was the perfect, patient guy as he showed Kate (first strictly as friends!) that her epilepsy didn’t define her and the guys who blew her off about it in the past weren’t worth her time or tears.

Everything about this story had me smiling. Well, maybe not the parts about Mack’s estrangement from his teen daughters! But the story is paced well, I felt like I really got to know these two main characters, and fell in love with them as they fell in love with each other.

Well done!

BLURB

An act of hysterical blackmail between two work enemies kicks off this flirty and utterly ridiculous laugh-out-loud romantic comedy from USA TODAY bestselling author Stevie J. Cole.

I hated Vance Morgan, my arrogant office mate, more than anyone in the world. And yet, there I was, on a Paris-bound flight, cramped in the small space by his six-foot-four, arrogant frame.

And why?

Because after the sexy, thieving bastard stole my dream assignment, I found out he had a Lonely Fans page. One dedicated to pictures of his man-meat stick in front of world monuments. So, I did what any rational woman in my situation would do.

I blackmailed his hot, article-swindling ass. The problem was, he blackmailed me right back. And thanks to him and his can’t- lose-attitude, we ended up stuck together, Traveling around Europe while coming up with tips and tricks on how to survive vacationing with someone you hate. Easy. Like I said, I despised the man. Or at least I thought I did…

After a few days of tiny hotel rooms and steamy tension, everything between us came to a head—a really big, massive, enticing head.

Now the only tip I’m desperately seeking is how to survive falling for my used-to-be enemy.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 5 Stars

In all seriousness, I could barely contain my snorts of laughter while reading Meet Hate Love in the lobby during my daughter’s dance class. It is hilariously funny, with likable characters, over-the-top scenarios that just somehow make complete sense, and two workplace rivals that are just perfect for each other!

Every time I thought things couldn’t get weirder or more awkward between Vance and Blake… they did. And I loved it. The banter between these two is so witty, and as they go on Vance’s *ahem* Europeen tour as a side project of their work assignment, things just kept getting funnier and funnier. Let me tell you — if I ever get to the Sistine Chapel, I will be looking for that bathroom!

Don’t let this one pass you by. Blake’s Eat Pray Love trip may have not started out how she’d imagined it would, but it brought her to her happily ever after and the trip there is an absolute riot!

I received an advanced copy and voluntarily left a review.

About Stevie J. Cole:

Stevie J. Cole likes to write realistic stories with raw, gritty characters you should hate but can’t help but to love.

She’s obsessed with rock music, loves sloths, and has an unnatural obsession with British accents.

Her books are not recommended for the faint of heart.

I’d do anything for that woman because she is my world.
Even if she doesn’t realise it yet.

Tiffany

When Mum is diagnosed with cancer, Aiden’s the person I run to.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 4 Stars

Rumour Has It is a charming second-chance, best-friends romance from a new-to-me author. I quite enjoyed reading this book by Naaz Spencer, and thought she did a lovely job of portraying the hurt and heartbreak between Aiden and Tiffany — as well as the groveling, reconnecting, and falling back in love. This book deals with the sensitive topic of a parent dying of cancer, and I thought that added so much to the story. Her mom’s diagnosis was a turning point for Tiffany in forgiving Aiden. Amid all the angst, there are some very sweet moments, and I enjoyed Tiffany and Aiden’s journey very much. I received an advanced copy and voluntarily left a review.
