Rogue is a standalone novel by Olivia Hayley and it is absolutely amazing. I was very much intrigued by the blurb of the book but it was the cover that sold me. Turns out, judging the book by it's cover isn't so bad.

This is a story of heartbreak and second chance love.

Hayden Cole is a poor kid who comes to live in Paradise Shores with his Uncle Gary, who has scored a job with the Marchands, a rich family residing there.

He is immediately befriended by Lily Marchand, the youngest Marchand kid. As they grow up together through their teenage years, a mutual crush starts developing between them. Through first kisses and foreign feelings, both Lily and Hayden fancy themselves in love with the other.

It was very refreshing to read about their budding childhood love.

But before ther feeings could blossom into something more, it is nipped at the bud stage.

Lily and Hayden get into a car accident, which leaves Lily gravely injured. Enter the devil (all puns intended) who convinces Hayden that the pitiful state of Lily was a result of his bad, company.

As a result, Hayden leaves Paradise Shores and Lily who is heartbroken to find him gone at such a sensitive point of her life.

He's back now, ten years later, a different person from the 18 year old boy he was. And now, he can no more deny his love for her.

I loved the dynamics of their relationship even though the chemistry was off at times. The plot was good and the writing was commendable.

All in all, I enjoyed my time with this book.

ARC Review- Charlie by Siobhan Davis

Blurb:- Demi Dropping out of college senior year was never part of my plan. But Dad needs me, and I’d move mountains for the only parent I’ve ever known—even working for the company that fired him. My boss, Charlie, is determined to make my life a living hell, availing of every opportunity to undermine my confidence, to humiliate and threaten me. Sleeping with him the night of his wedding might have something to do with his attitude. Or the fact I’m the spitting image of the woman he really wants. If our financial situation wasn’t so dire, I’d tell Charlie to stick his job up his delectable butt. But I’m trapped, and things are only getting worse. Because the more layers I uncover, the more I realize he is nothing l expected and everything I crave. Charlie If there was a manual for all the ways a person could mess up his life, it’d have my name written on it. I can’t undo the things I’ve done, no matter how badly I want to, and every day is a constant reminder of my epic failure. Espec...

Review - The Unrequited by Saffron A. Kent

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...
