Review: A Not So Meet Cute by Meghan Quinn (Cane Brothers #1)


Note: An advance reader copy (ARC) was provided by the author.

"Okay, what kind of creep are you?" 
"Excuse me?" I ask. 
She motions at me with her finger. "I told you I'm looking for a rich boyfriend. You should be running away. You should probably be calling the cops to escort me out of her and back to my mom's modest bungalow. There's no way in hell you should be asking me to grab something to eat. So, what's your game, man?"

Ooh! Me likey! I was smitten with A Not So Meet Cute, the first book in Meghan Quinn's billionaire romance series. Not sure if said series has a title or not, but I'm totally clueless as to what it may be, so yeah, I'm sticking with the whole generic "billionaire romance" label. But I digress! This new novel has the Quinn-tessential (see what I did there?) quirky romance that I've come to expect and look forward to when it comes to this witty author.

We're often told to be careful what we wish for, and in the case of Leiselotte Gardner and Huxley Cane, they certainly got more than they'd anticipated--in each other! Twenty-eight-year-old Lottie is recently unemployed and hopes to bump into a rich husband; voila, she does exactly that with thirty-two-year-old real estate mogul and billionaire Huxley, who happens to be in need of a fiancee. Win-win, right? Yeah, it's all complicated.

This was a hoot of a read, one that left me with a smile on my face by the end. Lottie and Hux were made for each other, even if they did seem like this odd couple. Their motivations may have made them desperate enough to agree to pretend to be engaged, but theirs was a not-so fake connection. There were countless hilarious moments, as well as heartfelt ones, making A Not So Meet Cute an all-too-cute five-plus-starred must-read!

Release Blitz: Saved by Hazel James

Saved (Battles #2) by Hazel James Release Date: June 21, 2018 About Saved Leilani Moretti Life is out to get me.  Humvee accident that took my right hand? Strike one.  Cancer three years later that stole my breasts and hair? Strike two.  An overbearing mother who seems to think I’m twelve, not twenty-seven?  Yeah, I’m out of there.  I thought moving to Oklahoma would give me a fresh start. I hoped life would finally cut me some damn slack. But between the inept people at the VA hospital and a boss who’s hell-bent on fixing me, I just want to be left alone. Haven’t I been through enough already? Clay Prescott Joining the Army and deploying to Afghanistan? Hard. Kicking an alcohol addiction and starting a business combining fitness and mental health? Harder. Worth it? Hell yes.  Battles, my gym, has been so successful that I hired a new employee—a veteran herself—to help me open a second location. And that’s when it all goes to hell. Everything

Blue Skies (Blue Skies #1) by Marie Sinclair Release Date: October 11, 2023 About Blue Skies Greg loves his job as a flight attendant. If only his love life could make him as happy, he’d be all set. Asexual and HIV-positive, Greg has had a series of untrustworthy boyfriends who saw him as a challenge or told him they could accept his sexuality and status. Until they couldn’t. Still reeling from his latest breakup, Greg’s romantic heart beats a little faster when he meets Holden at a club, even though his brain whispers caution. For Holden, relationships are something he can’t afford. He’s been in the closet his entire adult life because it could cost him his job if anyone finds out he’s gay. At forty-eight, hook-ups, one night stands, and quickies in a bathroom are as good as it gets for him. It’s all he’s looking for when he goes to Neon. Instead, he finds Greg. Drawn to each other from the start, the two experience a bit of a bumpy take-off. But then Holden ends up on Greg

Review: The Room Mate by Kendall Ryan (Roommates #1)

Note: This ARC was provided by the author via InkSlinger PR in exchange for an honest review. I do believe I've found myself a new book boyfriend to drool, erm, swoon over in Cannon Roth, male main character in bestselling author Kendall Ryan's Roommates series starter, The Room Mate . This had a familiar romance trope--falling-for-your-best-friend's-sibling--and yet I didn't find it boring or tiresome in any way. This has both heart and heat as well as lighthearted humor along with a bit of heart-tugging angst and it's headlined by a couple of main characters that I was totally smitten with from the moment Paige got a pretty good idea of just how much her best friend's younger brother Cannon had grown up from the nerdy boy who followed them around like a puppy when they were kids. Bonus points for Paige being older and for the four-legged, furball named Enchilada.  When twenty-eight-year-old Paige took the call from her best friend asking if her yo
