The Plus Ones by Kayley Loring
Rating: 5/5
Heat rating: 3/5
Amazon buy button
Category: Contemporary Romance
Publication date: 9/26/2019
Kindle Unlimited: Yes
Cliffhanger: No

It’s fun, y’all.  

Plot overview: Quasi-enemies Keaton and Roxy pose as a couple to go on a Caribbean vacay with their coupled-up friends to a couples only resort.  

I like this author. I’ve read Come Back to Bed and Tonight You’re Mine, and I loved them both. The Plus Ones features characters from CBtB and TYM, but can be read as a standalone.

Plot overview: FBI agent Kate ends up on a prisoner transport plane with Mason, former Navy Seal—now a wanted criminal. Too bad for Kate and Mason that the other prisoners stage a jailbreak that crashes the plane and strands them in the middle of the Alaskan wild.

Why romance readers will love (and hate) Netflix’s Falling Inn Love

9/16/2019

0 Comments

 
Look, I’m generally not a fan of cheesy rom com movies. I’ve never been able to watch a Hallmark movie all the way through. But I’ve generally had better luck with Netflix movies. I mean, I did enjoy The Kissing Booth, based on the book by Beth Reekles, and I ADORED To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before, based on the book by Jenny Han. So when I saw the promo for Falling Inn Love, I figured Netflix had earned the benefit of my doubt. (If I’m being honest, though, if I’d seen the premise on a Hallmark movie, I would’ve run the other way, screaming. But I digress...)

The BEST “there’s only one bed” romance novels you’ll ever find

The BEST “there’s only one bed” romance novels you’ll ever find
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Just because something is a cliche you’ve seen a million times doesn’t necessarily mean it’s a bad thing. That’s certainly the case of the old “there’s only one bed and these two people who are hopelessly attracted to each other now have to share it and pretend they aren’t hopelessly attracted to each other” trope. It’s something that makes me happy every time it comes up in a book or movie. With that in mind, here are a few of our all-time favorites.

I’m not a huge romantic suspense fan these days.  But there are 3 authors I make exceptions for. I 1-click these authors without questions: Scarlett Cole,  Kaylea Cross ...and Pamela Clare. In fact, I tend to judge all romantic suspense against Pamela Clare’s books. And I’m pleased to report that Hard Asset delivered everything I’ve come to know and love about a Pamela Clare read. ​

The worst TV series finales that NEED to be rewritten by romance authors

The worst TV series finales that NEED to be rewritten by romance authors
There are very few things I even watch on TV anymore. Why? Because it seems like lately, when I love a TV show, it comes to a horrible, horrible end. Sometimes the ending is so horrible that it negates everything I enjoyed about the show in the first place and I feel like I’ve wasted years of my life fangirling for no good reason at all. I’m actually TERRIFIED that Supernatural is ending this year because what will become of my precious Dean??? So, with that in mind, I’ve come up with this list of the WORST TV endings that need to be rewritten by romance authors ASAP—because let’s face it, romance authors know how to give good ending.
