Jackson by Siobhan Davis My rating: 4 of 5 stars 4 stars 🌟🌟🌟🌟 For my reviews and more, visit my blog LaraBabbles Book Blog Jackson's book has been on my most anticipated list for so long! I was looking forward to this book as soon as I read Sweet Retribution and to say that this book satisfied my appetite would be a huge understatement. I freaking loved it! Jackson was one of my favorite characters from the Rydeville Elite Series and when I got to know that he's going to get his own book, I was very much excited for it! However, given the glimpse of his personality in the previous books I was a bit nervous about Vanessa being his heroine who I believe is also introduced in a short scene in Ruse. Both of them reeked of a destructive past and I was looking forward to see how Siobhan would weave her magic to bring them together. And she didn't disappoint me.! Jackson is devastated by the death of his sister, Dani, who took her own life. After years of numbing h...

There’s no such thing as love at first sight--right? Forty Day Fiancé, an all-new fun and flirty romantic comedy from New York Times bestselling author Erin McCarthy, is coming June 1st, and we have the irresistible cover! Admittedly, my first plan was a little crazy. I had forty days to execute it. Find a fake fiance, move in with him, and convince the powers-that-be that we’re madly in love. Surely this British girl can sweet-talk a few American officials. Step One: the sexy, wealthy doctor I’ve been chatting up agrees to my plan--with a demand of his own. A baby. An actual ring. A for-real marriage and family. Turns out, there’s someone more bonkers than me. So Step Two: I now have forty days to convince my fake fiance that we can’t be real. Because there’s no such thing as love at first sight--right? Add FORTY DAY FIANCÉ to Goodreads: https://bit.ly/3cQ39MV Cover Designer: Hang Le About Erin USA Today and New York Ti...

Dark Notes by Pam Godwin My rating: 5 of 5 stars 4.5 stars 🌟 For my reviews and more, visit my blog LaraBabbles Book Blog Another amazing novel by an author new to me! I mean, what were the odds?! Anyway, I found this book already sitting on my Kindle. I'd probably bought it in a sale binge or something earlier and promptly forgot about it, but I'm a little extra happy about not shelling out some immediate money. Getting on with my review, then! As the rating suggests, I really enjoyed reading this book! A poor girl from the bad side of the town, Ivory Westbrook is every man's temptation. At 17, she is the only sensible person in her family which consists of a crackhead mother and a similar brother, both of them hates her as her father sold his family business to pay for her tuition at Le Moyne academy and his sudden demise. Left alone to fend for herself, Ivory does the only thing she can to pay the bills - sell her body. She has a plan. Endure one more year of...

The Unrequited by Saffron A. Kent My rating: 5 of 5 stars 5 stars 🌟 For my reviews and more, visit my blog LaraBabbles Book Blog My mother probably thought I had a break up over phone or bad period cramps. Yep! That is how I ugly cried while reading this book. After a series of disappointing reads, this book came to me as a life-saver. The Unrequited is going to be my all time favorite book from now on. I must confess that when I read the blurb, I thought that this book was going to be another explicit story about how a girl lusts after her Professor and all the typical drama that comes with a forbidden Romance. And for my ignorance and stereotyping, I got smacked in my face with a bucket load of angst and a beautiful heartbreaking story. I was in a perpetual state of blocked throat while reading this book. The Unrequited is a story of a heartbroken girl, Layla Robinson who has sworn off love due to a terrible ending with her first attempt at loving someone. She is miserabl...

The Hunter by L.J. Shen My rating: 2 of 5 stars 2.5 stars 🌟 For my reviews and more, visit my blog - LaraBabbles Book Blog I finished this book yesterday but had to wait to gather my thoughts for the review. It isn't everyday your favorite author disappoints you. I never ever thought about giving such a low rating to a L. J. Shen book, but here we are. I'll try to explain my best the reason for the rating. After reading the ARCs and the Beta reviews, I was most excited for this book. I was literally counting seconds for The Hunter to go live. Unfortunately, before reading, I was overwhelmed by the low ratings my friends had given this book. I mean, Angry God wasn't my best read for sure, but how bad can Shen write to elicit such a response from the multitude of the readers? My answer :- Pretty Bad. Reason #1 - The awful dialogues . Now, I understand the authors need to insert humor in her words but Shen took it too far. In her attempt to make Hunter appear as a f...

#MNGirl by A.M.  Brooks My rating: 5 of 5 stars For my reviews and more, visit my blog LaraBabbles Book Blog 5 stars 🌟 I picked up this book on a whim. Seriously, I didn't even read the blurb until halfway through the story. The cover and the unusual title intrigued me into indulging my time with this gem. And a gem it was! I can't believe this author and I have never met before. This book was totally, hands down amazing. Saylor Torre , a seventeen year old girl has had a bad birthday party where none of her friends and boyfriend show up. Her father has been charged with money laundering and is currently a wanted international criminal, hence the aforementioned birthday disaster. But, this thing is seemingly nothing to compare to what meets her when she gets home. A series of disastrous events takes place leading her to separate from her mother and sister, change her appearance and disappear in the middle of nowhere in the small town of Minnesota. She wasn't prepare...
