New Audiobook Release Review: The Last Guy on Earth by Sarina Bowen

 

The Last Guy On Earth by Sarina Bowen
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Sarina Bowen has long been a DEAR (Drop Everything and Read- I'm a child of the 70s!) author for me and I always enjoy her hockey romances. Clay and Jethro were both fantastic, well-developed characters, and I especially loved Jethro's relationship with his nephew. This audiobook, narrated by Teddy Hamilton and JF Harding, was so well done.

About TILL SUMMER DO US PART (Coming 6/3/2025):

I got what I wanted. I became buddy-buddy with my boss in an instant. But the cost will be hefty…finding a husband by tomorrow. 

Scottie Price just started a new job, and it’s a real sausage fest. She’s the only woman on a team filled with Brads and Chads. Expecting a bachelor pad atmosphere, she is quickly corrected when she finds out everyone is happily married. 

In an effort to impress her boss, Scottie mentions her nonexistent husband in a company meeting. But eagle-eyed Chad points out her lack of wedding ring. Panicked, Scottie creates a story about her unhappy marriage. Unfortunately for Scottie, her boss has a solution – a one-on-one session with the best marriage counselor in the Northeast, who happens to be her boss’s husband. 

With no way out of her lie, Scottie agrees to see him. Frantic, she calls in help from her best friend who sets her up with his brother, an improv-obsessed millionaire. 

Enter Wilder Wells. More than happy to take on the job, he teaches Scottie the main rule of improv: Always say yes. But the rule backfires during the session when Wilder signs them up for an eight-day summer marriage camp with all of Scottie’s co-workers where she’ll have to share a cabin with her way-too-handsome fake husband.

New Release Audiobook Review: The Business Trip by Jessie Garcia

 

The Business Trip by Jessie Garcia
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Although this started out a bit slow, the second half picked up and I was hooked. I really enjoyed the audiobook, especially since each character was voiced by a different narrator. I found it to be full of twists and turns and quite clever. The ending was not what I expected at all, and although I found it a bit far-fetched, I still enjoyed the ride. I will definitely be looking for more from this author.

New Release Review: Comeback by Rebecca Jenshak

 

Comeback by Rebecca Jenshak is now live! 

My brother’s best friend is such a jerk.    

An imposing, handsome jerk who doesn’t trust me. And now we’re roommates.  

He wanders around the apartment in nothing but gray sweatpants, looking like a broody, tattooed muscle god, and playing music that shakes the walls. I want to hate him for treating me like an intruder, but there’s something about the way he looks at me—like he’s trying to figure me out—that keeps pulling me in.  

Archer Holland is loyal, caring, and protective—with everyone except me.  

Every time I move around our apartment, I can feel his glare. And the worst part? It only makes me want him more.  

Not that it matters.  

He’s my brother’s best friend—the one guy I can never have. But after a late-night rescue, we go from sharing a wall to sharing a bed.  

I’m not sure what my brother would do if he found out, but it doesn’t matter because Archer says it can’t happen again.   

That imposing, handsome jerk is about to find out I’m done playing by his rules. 

Comeback is a football romance with lots of spice, swoon, and a happily ever after. It’s the third book in the Holland Brothers series and can be read as a standalone.

My review: 4 stars

I have really enjoyed the Holland Brothers series and Comeback was great as well! I loved the fact that the heroine Sabrina was opening a dance studio since I grew up dancing too. I really liked the time author Rebecca Jenshak spent on hero Asher's hearing loss- she took great care to note whether he was reading lips, or if others were signing to him. I found Comeback to be a quick fun read- there was no real relationship drama and the conflict was solved pretty quickly and that was refreshing.

New Release Review: Not Your Biggest Fan by Sara Ney

NOT YOUR BIGGEST FAN

Sara Ney

Release Date: January 28

Blurb:

USA Today bestselling author Sara Ney sizzles with a quick-witted, sexy romp about an eager entrepreneur and a cocky football star who couldn’t be more different—or more into each other.

Harlow James is destined to rock the dating world. The creator of Kissmet, the app helping singles find love, she’s in New York to secure advertisers. But the sassy, small-town girl can’t help meddling in other people’s business.

When she runs into a muscular stranger at her go-to food truck, Harlow doesn’t realize he’s Landon “Andy” Burke, the NFL’s most-wanted free agent, in town to talk contracts. She just sees a hottie about to get burned by undercooked street food. Though she tries to warn him, he shrugs her off, making a little wager instead.

In a messy twist of fate, Andy finds himself in the same hotel as Harlow. When she collects on their bet, they make a mind-blowing—and bed-rocking—connection. But after the weekend, she goes home to Green Bay to her goofy dad and corgi, ready to focus everything on work again. Kissmet, however, has other ideas, when Andy knocks on her door…

My review: 4 stars

I always know I'm in for a hilarious good time when I dive into a Sara Ney book, and Harlow and Andy's story was great from the meet-cute to the HEA. I loved how sassy and fun Harlow is (her conversations with her friends are so funny!) and Andy was a perfect balance of a strong, yet sweet man. Their antics were a delight- the mustaches had me cackling for sure. Harlow's dad Big Steve was a hoot. I really loved that there was no real third act break-up type drama. This was such a fun book!

BLURB

From New York Times bestselling author Penelope Ward comes a new, STANDALONE novel…

Don’t say her name.

That was the one rule my bandmates followed, because they knew how much it messed me up to think about her, especially on tour.

My ex, Nicole.

The one who got away and the woman who still owned every piece of my heart.

After our divorce, I threw myself into the rock scene, trying to forget my heartbreak.

Three years after we split, a phone call from Nicole changed everything.

She told me her grandmother wasn’t doing well.

Mimi was still family to me, and she apparently had one wish before dying: to spend time with us—Nicole and me.

With Mimi’s caretaker away on vacation, it would be the ideal time for us to move in with her for a couple of weeks.

Of course, I couldn’t refuse.

But there was a catch.

Nicole apparently never told her that we’d gotten a divorce.

She hadn’t believed Mimi could handle it, because her grandmother loved me so much.

So, not only would I have to see Nicole again, but I’d be pretending to still be her husband.

Two weeks in a tiny house in a small town with the woman who broke my heart. Or was it me who broke hers?

It was complicated.

And it was about to be a heck of a lot more complicated sharing one bed in the guest room with a woman who wasn’t mine anymore.

Cover Reveal: The Merger by Adriana Locke

 The Merger is the next interconnected standalone in the Brewer Family series, and is filled with heat and humor, spice... and secrets.

 

The Merger by Adriana Locke

Releasing: February 10, 2025

Model Cover Design: Kari March Designs

Model Photographer: Julia Mindar

Special Edition Cover Design: Books & Moods

 

Crushes are harmless—unless they involve your best friend’s grumpy, off-limits brother.

Gannon Brewer is the epitome of my type. He’s at least ten years older than me, emotionally unavailable, and highly disagreeable—a walking red flag in a tailored suit. But do I listen to that? No. In fact, when his office plants start dying, I convince myself that I can ignore the pheromones and save the philodendron.

Now I’m in his office every week, dodging sinful smirks and heated stares, reminding myself to reach for the watering can—not him. But one late-night “ivy incident” changes everything. Suddenly, we’re sneaking around, indulging in a steamy, forbidden fling that’s supposed to be nothing more than (a lot of) fun.

After all, he swears he’ll never fall in love. I assure him that I only want one thing, and it’s not his heart. But the closer we get, the more lines we blur, and the harder it becomes to keep our promises …

Especially when the secret I’m keeping threatens to shatter everything.
