Review: All the Wright Moves by K.A. Linde (Wright Vineyard #5)


Note: An advance reader copy (ARC) was provided by the author via Wildfire Marketing Solutions.

All the Wright Moves is a falling-for-your-sibling's-best-friend and friends-to-lovers romance from K.A. Linde. Oh, and did I forget to mention that the main characters are roommates as well? This is the twelfth book in the Wrights book universe and the fifth in the Wright Vineyard spin-off series. Like all the other stories in this book world, you may try reading this new release as a standalone, but I'd be remiss if I didn't mention that there are cameo appearances from previous couples and possible spoilers to their stories may be present. The latest Wright to have the spotlight turned on him is Weston Wright and he's currently a session musician with Cosmere, the insanely popular and successful band that his best friend, Campbell Abbey (Wright that Got Away, Wright Vineyard #5), is part of--the same best friend whose younger sister, wedding planner Nora, currently lives in West's house. With West back from recording in LA, he and Nora are in close quarters, and the two are getting quite cozy. This may be temporary, but Campbell can never find out.

If any female character in this book world deserves to have a happily-ever-after, it's Nora. Her ex-boyfriend, with whom she was in a committed relationship for years, and her ex-best friend betrayed her, and the gall of the latter to do what she did at the beginning of the book made me want to slap said ex-bestie silly. I think Nora and Weston simply fit together, and I appreciated that they truly did have their own friendship that they cultivated rather than simply being friends as a by-product of West's friendship with Campbell. Nora was West's Snickers, and he was hungry for her because he wasn't him without his Snickers. *snicker* (If you didn't get that, it has something to do with tagline for the aforementioned candy bar.) The usual complication regarding the friendship between the brother and the boyfriend is at play, but throw in the fact that West's dream is to become part of Cosmere. Plus there's the whole Nora lives and works Lubbock, Texas and West works mainly in LA, California. But these two? They've got all the Wright moves. *wink* Four stars!

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)

Image
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
