Habits by Anna B. Doe - Review

Habits by Anna B. Doe

Senior year.
Three girls. Three guys.
Secrets and lies.
Demons of past and present.
Old insecurities and new fears.
One more year left to pretend.
One more year to wreck it all.
The countdown begins.

All Jeanette Sanders wanted to do was escape her past and forget everything that has happened. Coming to Greyford was supposed to be her new beginning, a clean slate. Only it seems like her past doesn’t want to let her go. As her old insecurities start to return in full force and lies grow bigger than ever, the only thing left is the hope that her broken heart will survive this time around.

Andrew Hill has been betrayed one too many times in the past. Cynical and cold-hearted, he closed off his heart for good and doesn’t plan on letting anybody in ever again. Especially women. But his heart doesn’t seem to care and starts beating faster every time a particular black-haired beauty gets in his way and puts him in his place.


Rating ⭐⭐⭐⭐


"Eyes on me, Princess."
I fell so hard for this book and these characters! This is a beautiful story that was beautifully written.
Both Andrew and Jeanette were introduced in Lines. Andrew is the alpha asshole that every girl wants but he is a one and done kind of guy.
Jeanette is cold to anyone and everyone and doesn't allow anyone past her frozen walls.
In Habits, we learn more about what makes them act the way they do.
Both of these two are stubborn and they are both broken. They are holding onto a world of hurt all by themselves because of the choices they made.  They are afraid to take risks because of their pasts.
These two are so frustrating at times and so delicate in other times. One minute I want to hug them and the next I want to strangle them. They both have such strong personalities.
One of the things I like about this series is the distinction between the characters. The couples are not carbon copies from book to book. They each have their own personalities, their quirks, and the stories follow suit.
If you love young adult romance, you NEED to read this book!

Just Neighbors by Charity Ferrel - New Release + Review

Just Neighbors by Charity Ferrell

Every day, my neighbor tells me to have a good morning.
Every day, I tell him to f*ck off.
Kyle Lane is the town’s hottest cop.
He’s also the man I’ve despised since high school.
Each morning, he stands on his porch with an annoying smirk on his perfect face.
He’s made it his life’s mission to get under my skin.
Until one day, he’s no longer on his porch but on mine.
He claims he wants to redeem himself for ruining my reputation.
My instincts tell me to stay away, but with each morning he shows up, it becomes harder and harder to resist his charm.
I was never supposed to fall in love with my neighbor and once he finds out my secret, we’ll forever be enemies.
(An enemies 

Rating ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐


Oh wow! This was an amazing story to read! It's cute, it's sassy, it's hot, and it's emotional. 
This book grabbed my attention from the first page and kept it until the very end. I rate my books by my ability to put it down while reading it. I did not want to stop reading this! I even took it with me to my dentist appointment. (Note to self - be careful of where I'm at in the book before reading in public!)
Kyle is Chloe's new neighbor and boy do they have history. Her hatred towards him stems from high school. 
According to Melanie, Chloe's assistant, hate sex is the best sex. And let me just say - Kyle and Chloe's chemistry is off the charts HOT! 
The book goes back to Chloe's childhood a few times - just  enough so the reader can fully grasp the entire story and the mystery. 

There came a point where I was pretty sure I knew what the secret was. Then all I wanted to do was read to see how it was going to play out because it was not going to be pretty. 
Well - what I wasn't expecting was to have the author throw me - the reader - an emotional curveball. I did NOT see it coming!
This book made me laugh, got me hot, wrecked me and then put me back together.

Melting the Ice by Melody Heck Gatto - New Release

Melting the Ice

by Melody Heck Gatto
Publication Date: March 25, 2019
Genres: Adult, Contemporary, Sports, Romance
Talia never imagined that at almost forty years old, she’d be newly single again. Not to mention picking up a sexy young man at a Pittsburgh bar. What she thought was a one-night stand, turned into night after night of the best sex she’d ever had. Even the news that he was a teammate of her brother couldn’t extinguish the desire she had for Harrison. Somehow, he had made himself a permanent fixture in her bed and was slowly moving in on her heart. He fawned over her like no man ever had before, and she was loving the attention, but she wasn’t ready to give her heart away so easily. Not after what she just went through.

Harrison vowed off relationships. He was a self-proclaimed lifelong-bachelor. Talia was simply supposed to be a notch in his bedpost, a hook-up. But he was drawn to this woman with such an animal attraction. Typically, he never bedded the same woman twice, yet he couldn’t get enough of Talia.

At her age, she wasn’t looking for a new relationship. With Harrison, things quickly turned hot and heavy. She had her fun, and it was very fun, but now her divorce papers were finalized.

It was time to figure out what made her happy, put on her big-girl pants and start the next chapter of her life.

The only problem was, she knew exactly what made her happy – the one thing she shouldn’t want – Harrison.

About Melody Heck Gatto

I was born and raised in the Steel City, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Home of the Pittsburgh Penguins, Steelers, and Pirates. We are famous for Mario Lemieux, Sidney Crosby, Pierogis, saying “yinz”, and sandwiches with coleslaw and French fries on them (just to name a few). I live with my husband, teen son and fur babies.

We are huge hockey fans and adore our home team, the Pittsburgh Penguins. During the hockey season, our lives revolve around the game schedule.

I decided one day I wanted to write a fan fiction short story about my favorite hockey player. Eventually, I no longer had a fan fiction, I had a full-length story. Sure the idea got changed around a few times, and names got changed to protect the innocent…lol. And that’s where I started. I wrote one and the rest just followed.

I love hockey and I love romance novels, I didn’t even know there was a whole genre of books out there when I started writing my first novel. I love making the game part of the overall story (I love the whole experience of being at an NHL game, the noise, the food, the sound of the skates on the ice.) So expect the game to be part of my books. I spend time during the season at Penguins practices watching how they interact, talk, and work on the ice, to make my scenes as real to life as possible. My hope is even if you’ve never set foot into a hockey rink, you will feel as if you had while reading my books.

My characters aren’t always rough and gruff, because not all hockey players are goons. I’ve had the chance to meet a few and they are awesome guys. So, I like to show a gentle and caring side along with the rough and tough.

I am a Hallmark movie junkie. I adore the Christmas movies and all the cutesy (and sometimes clichรฉ) romance, and I love to get swept away in it all. I also will binge watch my favorite tv shows BONES FRIENDS, LAST MAN STANDING, SUPERNATURAL, and CHICAGO PD.

The Reality of Wright and Wrong by Leddy Harper - Review

The Reality of Wright and Wrong by Leddy Harper 

“Save me and have me, fix me and I’m yours.”

What do you do when you catch your fiancรฉ grinding on another woman? Well, if you’re me, you run off with a sexy, ink-covered tattoo artist who goes by the name Wrong. 

Then you marry him after a week. 

This isn’t a story of love at first sight—love didn’t come into play until after I had ruined it all. It’s the reality of what is right and what is wrong when it comes to soulmates.

Rating ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

So damn good!!!

"Save me and have me, fix me and I'm yours."
"What's the story behind your name? Why Mercy?"

Do you believe in fate - that the universe already has plans for you? Whether you do or not, this was one helluva thought provoking book.

From the first time I saw the blurb, I knew I had to read this story. I'm a fan of this author's stranger-to-lovers stories and let me tell you this was one of my top favorite reads of the year so far! From the poetry to the characters to the angst and everything in between, I absolutely loved it!

For Mercy, she was attracted to someone totally opposite of what was her norm and so suddenly after having her world turned upside down and yet he brought her out of her shell.
For Wrong, he thought he had lost the love of his life. He had already had his 10. He just never knew there was an 11 out there.


There are certain books that when read at a particular moment in your life, it just grabs you and shakes you. For me, this was that book.
