REVIEW: Prima Donna by Laura Drewry

In USA Today bestselling author Laura Drewry’s witty, sizzling, and tender romance for readers of Jill Shalvis and Susan Mallery, a woman who can’t slow down discovers that the perfect guy is in hot pursuit. 
Even when her hair salon goes under and she’s on the brink of breaking, Regan Burke keeps her “I’m just fine” attitude. She’s had a tough life, coping with a difficult family and keeping her act together . . . barely. Right now, she just needs a job, any job, so she can pay her mother’s medical bills. It’s the exact wrong time for Carter Scott to come into her life—and to be so damn sexy, so distracting, and so determined to get close. 

Carter isn’t looking for anything serious—his heart belongs to the kids who depend on his pediatric practice—but something about Regan makes him reconsider. Maybe it’s the scars she hides so well, the secrets she can’t share. Carter knows all about that kind of pain, and he wants to help. But offering Regan a job in his office only makes things worse, even if their chemistry is off the charts. Lucky for them both, Carter isn’t about to let go of love without a fight.

ADRI'S REVIEW:

First of all I would like to thank NetGalley and Random House for providing us with a copy of the book so that we could bring you this review.

Oh I need to say how much I liked Carter... Ok I am not so much in love with him as I am in Lust with him... Come on how can you beat a sexy, pediatrician who rides a motorcycle... there just isn't much you cant like about him.  And Regan, wow its amazing how strong she is. She has been through a lot over her life. To have dealt with the kind of hurt she has, and still be willing to kill yourself working that hard to provide for the person who hurts you makes her an amazing person. 

I can't blame either of these characters for being leery about having a relationship, but their connection is strong. It was a fun sexy read.

Happy Reading... Adri

REVIEW: Plain Janye by Laura Drewry

In Laura Drewry’s funny, heartwarming Loveswept debut, a man and a woman learn the hard way that a little bit of love makes staying friends a whole lot harder.
 
Worn out from the long drive back home, Jayne Morgan can only smirk at the irony: Of course the first person she sees from her old life is Nick Scott. Once best friends, they lost touch when Jayne left town at eighteen, but nothing could keep them apart forever. Jayne has returned to take over her grandmother’s bookstore, determined to put all her bittersweet memories and secret disappointments strictly in the past—until, that is, Nick insists she bunk at his place.
 
Nick never did care what people thought about having a girl for a best friend—or the “scandal” she caused by showing up to his wife’s funeral four years earlier—so he’s got no problem with the gossips now. Jayne was always the one person he could count on in his life. Now Nick is starting to realize that he never wants her to leave again . . . and that being “just friends” isn’t going to be enough anymore.
 
Includes a special message from the editor, as well as an excerpt from another Loveswept title.

Adri's Review:

Let me start by saying thank you to NetGalley and Random House for allowing us an ARC copy so we could write this review.

Jayne is one of those characters that all you want to do is grab and give a big hug to, but it is something that you know will make her very uncomfortable. Why? Because she isn't used to getting love and affection shared with her. Nick is that character that you want to bop in the back of the head for not seeing things sooner. 

As many of you know I like these types of stories the most. They are just as good as those second chance loves. These best friends finding that they see themselves more than just friends. It also has a lot of fun and interesting secondary characters.

Happy Reading... Adri
