The Path to Loving Him by: Meghan Quinn

Meghan will manage to get all the feels out of you in her new book. She also doesn’t make you wait around for sexy times, it happens fast and often.

Ryland and Gabby are two well-thought-out characters. They have many layers and similar backgrounds leaving them vulnerable to new relationships. Ryland is not looking for a distraction and Gabby needs to focus on her new job. They both didn’t expect a one-night stand to turn into seeing each other daily. They try to navigate living steps away from each other and coaching together, but their scorching chemistry makes it difficult and the closer they get the harder it is to deny.

I’m in love with the Almond Bay series and this book may have been my favorite. I wasn’t sure about Gabby at first, but as I got to know her character I fell in love with her. She was dishonest in the beginning but not because she was a dishonest person and more because she needed to protect herself. She was a strong female character which I admire. And Ryland I have always liked even though he could be a grump, I so wanted him to find his HEA. I think Gabby was the perfect personality for him to come out of his shell and finally live a little. Mac is such a great addition to this book and series, I’m so happy that we got so much of her in this book. The epilogue was fantastic and made me cry.

Another five-star book by Meghan, I can’t wait to see what other characters we will get from Almond Bay!

How My Neighbor Stole Christmas by Meghan Quinn

My favorite time of the year arrived early with this sexy, fun, silly read. This book sure got me in the holiday spirit. I want to be in Kringletown where Christmas is 24/7, it sounds like a dream. I honestly don’t know where Meghan comes up with her ideas but they are so clever.

I think I giggled throughout this book, and if I wasn’t laughing, I was panting, because WOW Cole is dirty. I don’t think I’ll ever look at a candy cane the same again without thinking about this. And the MC’s names…Storee and Cole how perfect for this book.

I have to say though the narrator was my favorite, and all I could hear was Dr. Suess’s version of The Grinch in my head. I’m sure many other readers will experience the same. Also, I really would love to get a book about Atlas/Max, he was such a great side character.

I once again devoured Megan’s story. You will laugh out loud, get a little teary, and definitely get a little hot for these friends to enemies to lovers and fake relationships to lovers, (I could go on with the tropes). I will not recap the book because you just need to grab a cup of hot chocolate and go in blind.

This book was so much fun! I couldn’t stop laughing, Meghan Quinn’s humor is so unique and funny. She always knows how to get me to laugh out loud and wake my husband out of sleep. Both our MC’s Every and Hardy are a bit awkward, which makes them so lovable. They have this quirky email exchange that made me giggle, but Everly’s one-liners are what had me going. I love it when the characters are both likable and I liked both of them immediately. There were a lot of silly misunderstandings and times you wanted to shake them and tell them to open their eyes, but it’s what made the book and the slow burn so well done.

I was excited to get a book about a Hopper brother because they were such great characters in Bridesmaid for Hire. I usually highlight a line or two to quote but I devoured this book so fast that I didn’t even make any notes.

I read something that MQ wrote about this being one of the hardest books she has written, because it goes from friends to lovers, to enemies to lovers. Well, I couldn’t tell at all, she did a fantastic job of making this work. And those two tropes happen to be my favorite. I can’t wait to see what her next book has in store for us!

Four stars!

So This is War by Meghan Quinn was a fun and steamy story. I couldn’t wait to dive into Posey’s book, I have been waiting for that bologna-loving hockey player to get his story finally. I wasn’t sure how serious I would take him, but Meghan did a good job keeping him funny, but also sexy and in control when he needed to be. And I wasn’t expecting his kinks. I loved the texting between the Queens; it had me giggling the whole time.

Wylie was a strong confident woman, ten years younger than Posey. She was the coach's daughter and Posey’s secret obsession. And she just so happened to love bologna.

Posey and Wylie’s chemistry sizzled throughout the entire book and I thought I’d combust if something didn’t happen soon. Their banter and games were hilarious and the tasks Posey had to have her do were utterly ridiculous. This book will have you laughing and smiling, but it will have you ripping your hair out in frustration while panting.

I thought this was an entertaining and fun story, and I’m so sad this series is over, but my favorite is still He’s Not My Type.

Blurb:

Did I think I was going to fall for my coach's daughter?

The answer would be no. 

I'm still unclear on how I got into this predicament in the first place. A year ago, I was a man with one thought on his mind, the redhead I met at a hotel bar. Twelve months later, I found her. 

Unfortunately for me, she not only happens to be my very off-limits coach's daughter, but also . . . my new assistant and roommate. 

I don't even need an assistant, but Coach Wood doesn’t take no for an answer. Add in him writing up tasks for his daughter, Wylie, to complete for me? Well, it's his own form of sweet torture. We are talking tasks that I would never ask her to do. 

Tasks that make her despise me. 

Hate me. 

That make her utter four words that cause a shiver to crawl up my spine . . . Posey, this is war.

Honey Cut by Sierra Simone was such a captivating and steamy read. Sierra once again is impeccable with her writing and storytelling and she’s the reason why I started this series. For one, I’m not into age gaps over ten years, two, I don’t like cheating and sharing, and three, sex clubs just aren't my thing. This book checks all those boxes and I devoured it. It was so good that the above-mentioned didn’t even bother me. The story picks up after Isolde and Tristan are back from the boat, they are on edge because they don’t know if Mark knows about them. It is angsty and the tension and sexual chemistry between the three of them is palpable. I was rooting for Tristan and Isolde and hating Mark, but then I could see some of his walls come down before they went right back up. I do not like Mark, but I wanted the three to make something work out. This is a unique and passionate relationship between the main characters, and the author does an excellent job of building tension and chemistry between them. Sierra drew me into the emotional journey of the characters. The book contains deliciously mature content and explores some darker more complex themes. You will be left with one hell of a cliffhanger and book hangover. I can’t believe I must wait to discover what happens between this threesome. I know it will be worth it!

      Blurb:   I have one job in this arranged marriage, and that’s to seduce my husband. It should be easy; I’m the heiress to a transatlantic fortune, bred and raised to make a good match. I’ve spent a lifetime building up my endurance, my discipline, my dedication to my god and my church. The danger lies in falling for the devil who put his ring on my finger—a mistake I made years ago, and can’t afford to make again. There is one more danger: handsome and green-eyed, emotionally wounded. Tristan Thomas, former soldier and my new husband’s bodyguard. A hero who stole my heart with salt-soaked kisses on the sea. But Lyonesse is not like other places, and this isn’t like other marriages. Soon Tristan, Mark, and I are tangled in a knot of vicious jealousy and gorgeous wickedness, where suspicion is an aphrodisiac and secrets and vows are one and the same. And there is something far darker at play than my real purpose, than the machinations of the Church I serve. Darker even than the twisted longings of my own heart. Because my husband has secrets of his own, and the reason he’ll stop at nothing to possess me could slice my soul deeper than the honeysuckle-hilted knife he gave me once upon a time. Because when it comes to Mark Trevena and his games, the first cut is more than the deepest—it’s the sweetest. And he always leaves you begging for more…   Read the Lyonesse Prequel, Salt in the Wound, for FREE Tropes: Anti-hero. Age gap.
