So finally they scratched that itch! 👏
And it was high time! He was hot & cold throughout the first ~70% of the story, and she kept getting disappointed by the mixed signals he was sending. But once they got into it, they spent about 4 chapters in bed. FOUR FREAKING CHAPTERS! Do I need to read about all the sex for this long? Short answer is - you guessed it - NO.
Gonna skim through the rest. So ready for this to be over already.

pickRead this one a while back. Not as good as the earlier Chicago Stars books, but still a solid read with laugh-out-loud moments.

bailedI've read the Cold Fury Hockey series by this author and quite enjoyed them. However, I'm having a hard time with one.
In the few chapters that I have read, the male character comes across as a little bit chauvinistic, and the female as someone without a backbone. She needs to be pushed out of her comfort zone, but I'm not very happy with the way in which he's trying to accomplish that.
Highly rated on GoodReads though!

pickIt's never a good idea to start reading a book, that you know is going to be fantastic, just one hour before your usual bedtime. I'll get only three hours of sleep before I have to get up for work, but staying up to finish reading The Bollywood Bride was totally worth it.
Heartbreaking, angsty, beautifully written - Sonali Dev knows how to spin a tale! Highly recommended.

pickI read this in a few hours - loved the banter between the characters and the no-nonsensical way in which she dealt with him. He was a douchebag, true - but one that you'll love!
Reminded me a little bit of Hayley and Nathan from One Tree Hill.

so-soI don't get all the hype about this series. This book wasn't that bad, but it wasn't that great either. Might/might not read the rest of the books in the series. #theivyyears #imagefromtheweb
☡ Warning: rant ahead.
Over the last few years, there has been more of an "openness" about both reading and writing sex scenes. The taboo doesn't exist anymore. Some people might call that progress.
But here is my problem: what the hell happened to the actual storyline?! Please don't write about characters spending all their time between the bedsheets and sell that as romance. That's not romance, that's porn.
/rant over.

bailedEuhm, there IS such a thing as too many sex scenes. At least, for me, there is. The first few chapters are only about that, with not much else happening. So yeah, that's me bailing on this book!

bailedI had no patience for the too-sweet, squeal-y, giggling heroine. I'd prefer a kick-ass and blunt female character.
