Wrenched by Barb Shuler

I loved the way that this one started and the sass pouring off the pages. This story had all the emotions and drama. Such an awesome read! Shuler has done it again with another great story chock full of terrific characters.

On the whole, I had a lot of fun with this anthology. It’s sassy, it’s snarky, it’s sweet, it’s spicy. It covers a wide range of styles and tastes. A couple of the stories weren’t what I’d normally pick, but I’m glad to have had the experience. I wouldn’t have known what I was missing, otherwise. Others were exactly what I gravitate to: snappy sarcastic banter and sizzling chemistry with just enough Murphy’s Law to leave me howling in laughter. Most of these stories appear to come from existing, or soon to exist, universes, so I see some expensive one-clicking in my future.

These amazing authors have come together to give us a wonderful selection of stories with this collection.

Fall for Me by R. Sullins: The author has given us a wonderful story that pulls us into the lives of Nikki and Jason. The story keeps us turning the pages with desire, denial, determination and steam.

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Pucker Up is finally here and includes Kiss My Sass! Meet snarky Eleanor Lipswich (40) and flirtatious Ford Wheeling (36)! He's ready to settle down. She's not willing to settle.

Specific review for Always the best friend R.S. Jonesee
I am a fan of the author who I call the Queen of rom com because I do not consider myself a fan of rom com books but I make an exception for this author. I love the relatability of the characters, the way that she finds ways of making what can be thought of as a formulaic genre unique. The will they won't they gets me every time. It's an easy read - I read most of it in a day - you just keep wanting one more chapter and you have a smile on your face from the moment it hits your kindle/doormat till after the last page. Read a book or a story by this author and trust me you will come back for more. Maybe you too will call her the Queen of rom com.
