Franklin University Series Season 2, Book 8

EMMETT

My twin brother and I have gotten ourselves into a lot of messes growing up. We would constantly switch places to escape consequences while protecting each other at every cost.

But sleeping with Ben’s professor is a whole new level of mess, because there’s something Jonah doesn’t know. He might have been Ben’s professor last semester, but the person he was lecturing wasn’t Ben. It was me.

JONAH

From the moment I meet Emmett, I know he looks familiar but I can’t pinpoint where from. It’s not until I see his twin brother in the quad that I put two and two together.

Dating the sibling of one of my ex-students isn’t a huge problem for me, but I can’t help thinking the twins are hiding something.

The more time I spend with Emmett, the more I fall for him, but as my insecurity grows, so does my worry that I’m being played.

When my heart and my gut tell me two different things, I don’t know which to trust. My gut tells me to cut and run, but my heart won’t let me. Even though I’ve been telling myself to hold back, it’s too late. I’m already in too deep.

Old Flames and New Fortunes by Sarah Hogle

 

A steamy second-chance romance about a magical florist’s unexpected reunion with her high school sweetheart as she fake dates his soon-to-be stepbrother.

A small, magical town tucked away in rural Ohio, Moonville is the perfect place for flora fortunist Romina Tempest to expand her shop, where she uses the language of flowers to help the hopeful manifest their love lives. After giving up on her own big romance eleven years ago, at least she can bask in the promise of others’.

So, when the shop’s potential financier shares news of his wedding, Romina jumps on the opportunity to discuss buying the business. What better place to negotiate a deal than at a wedding, even if she has to fake-date her chaotic colleague Trevor to get an invitation? But all hell breaks loose when she discovers Trevor’s soon-to-be stepbrother is none other than Alex her high school sweetheart. Her greatest love. The boy who, eleven years ago, broke her heart, and who now thinks she and Trevor are dating. 

What starts as an innocent misunderstanding becomes a week-long fake dating scheme, as Romina resolves to make Alex pay for breaking her heart. The only issue? She can’t deny their still-burning connection. Caught between proving to Alex what he lost, and coming clean and risking her business, Romina must decide whether giving Alex another chance means going back on herself, or finally releasing her hold on the past.

My Review: 5/5 Stars

Sarah Hogle is one of my favorites when it comes to comedy and romance. I just end up in stitches when I read her books. Her characters are a delight. It’s such a nice blend of romance and laughs and magic. In this book, we follow Romina. When Romina and her chaotic friend and colleague, Trevor, go to meet Trevor’s dad in what they think is a business lunch (they need money to fix up their shop and get it ready for a big event), they accidentally end up fake dating. In a moment of getting Trevor’s cousin off his back, they tell her they are dating, never thinking it would go past that moment. But then they realize this “lunch” is actually a big family get together where Trevor’s dad announces his is getting married. And the bride? Romina’s first love, Alex’s mom. And cue Alex’s entrance. Romina and Alex had a once in a lifetime love. But miscommunication and circumstances forced them apart. And while both have tried to move on, neither truly have all these years later. It’s clear from the beginning that Alex doesn’t believe in Trevor and Romina’s romance and as she juggles to keep up the lie through the week to the wedding, all the feelings she thought were pushed down for Alex, come rushing back. And once the charade is over, will she be brave enough to take a chance on Alex once again? These two were sweet and hilarious. Their banter was just so rich. I laughed my whole way through their story. Through every twist and turn and all the witchy magic. Because of course there is some magic in this book and it just takes the story to a new level. Such a fun read! 

Calder Academy Book 1: Sweet Nightmare by Tracy Wolff

 

Calder Academy Book 1

The scariest school on earth

Is about to experience real fear…

Most schools are about being the best. This school? It’s about being the worst. Calder Academy is where the rogue paranormals go. The ones who break the rules or lose control. And when that happens for vamps, werewolves, witches, and dark fae? It gets pretty freaking scary.

I should know. Because I’m trapped here.

Look, every seventeen-year-old girl thinks their mom is a tyrant. But mine just happens to run Calder Academy, which paints a giant target on my back. The way I make it through these dark halls is by steering clear of the things―and kids―who go bump in the night.

Especially Jude Abernathy-Lee.

But when a freak storm hits our isolated island, I'm stuck without a backup plan. The power is gone. The lights are out. And our worst nightmares are suddenly real―and out for blood.

Now the only way to survive is to align myself with one evil to avoid the other.

And the only thing worse than the idea of getting close to Jude? Secretly loving every minute of it.

My Review: 5/5 Stars

Back in the Crave universe and it is so nice to be back! This is the sequel series to the six book Crave series. It takes place after that final book and is now following the story of some familiar faces and some brand new ones. If you haven’t read the Crave series, definitely do so! You will appreciate the world so much better and get the references to several characters in this book. But this story follows Clementine Calder at Calder Academy. Her mother and the rest of her aunts and uncles run the school. This supernatural school is different from Katmere. It holds the most dangerous of the supernaturals. One thing I loved about this book is that while we got a good dose of certain supernaturals in the Crave series, this one takes us to a whole new level and gives us so many more different kinds of people. Clementine’s story begins with some weird stuff going on with the magical creatures in the basement of the school to being put on a class assignment with the boy who broke her heart 3 years ago and still to this day won’t tell her what happened. The tension between Jude and Clementine is intense and underneath it all, you can definitely tell these two care for one another but while Clementine craves answers, Jude is stubborn in his need to protect her. But things are about to change when a hurricane is about to hit their school. Chaos erupts. And in the madness, it becomes a game of survival and a lot of harsh truths to be revealed. The action doesn’t stop! It definitely keeps you on your toes. I adored Clementine and Jude and their love story as they find their way to mend what was broken and come together again. I loved Remy and Izzy who appeared in Crave and who was supposed to start this new series originally, but their book will be later down the line. Until then, we get to see them from a new point of view. I also loved this new cast of characters and friend group that has formed. A lot goes down in this book. And while many questions are answered, there are a ton unanswered. And I cannot wait to find out what happens! This was a great way to reenter this world.

Hope’s Ridge Book 1: Fractured Hope by Kady Cordova

 

Hope’s Ridge Book 1

Can I really escape hell to find all I’ve ever longed for?

Bodhi

Finding yourself is hard. Finding someone you can truly trust is harder.

I’ve never known what it was like to have a true home or family, let alone real love.

After almost a year of planning, I finally escaped my abusive ex and ran as far away as I could with just the clothes on my back and a handful of cash. When I arrive in the quaint town of Hope’s Ridge, I’m ready to start over and reclaim my life.

When I painfully crash into Atticus’s life, something about him puts me at ease. I’ve never been one to trust, but now I’m in a situation where I have no choice. He might be what I’ve been longing for my whole life.

Atticus 

I love my tight-knit town, my big Greek family, and the life I’ve built. I have a successful garage with my brothers and love my job. I have it good, but every now and then I long for a connection. Someone to chase away the loneliness that’s been creeping in. As my brothers like to point out, I’m set in my ways and not one for flings, bar hopping, or one-night stands.

When a beautiful man stumbles into my life, I’m blown away. He’s skittish and afraid, but all I want to do is take care of him.

When Bodhi’s ex starts making threats, danger gets ever closer and threatens everything I hold dear. Can I keep Bodhi safe and prove to him he’s worthy of love? Or will he run and take my heart with him?

Fractured Hope is a small-town, hurt/comfort, age-gap MM Romance with a broken boy looking for a safe place, a lonely man longing to find his person, and a family full of love, mischief, and colorful characters ready to step in and protect each other no matter the costs.

My Review: 5/5 Stars

Bodhi has spent the last year saving and planning his escape from his abusive ex. When he finally gets his moment, he slips into the night and runs as fast and as far as he can. Anything to escape the physical and emotional abuse he has been enduring for the last five years. Bodhi soon finds himself in Hope’s Ridge. Ready to start over and hopefully finally be safe. But a bit of a scare and a broken gutter, Bodhi finds himself in a bit of a situation with a broken foot in addition to his already fractured wrist and bruised ribs. Lucky for him, the person who startled him into this accident is the one who will save him in the end. Atticus. Atticus has always been a caretaker and a protector. And the moment he sees Bodhi those instincts come right to the surface. He definitely feels awful for causing Bodhi’s latest injuries but he refuses to leave his side and help him out. And when he gains Bodhi’s trust and his story, there is no getting rid of Atticus. He already felt a strong connection to Bodhi just at first sight but now, he will do what he can to care for Bodhi and show him he deserves all the love and care in the world. And for Bodhi, the fact that he feels safe with Atticus so soon? He never imagined and he isn’t ready to walk away just yet. But his ex is still out there and Bodhi knows he won’t rest until he can drag Bodhi back. I adored Atticus and Bodhi! These two were so sweet together. And I loved how protective Atticus was. These two definitely deserve to be happy and safe. And I loved Atticus’s family and brothers and definitely hope to see their stories as well! A great start to this series and I can’t wait for more!

Cover Reveal! Method Acting by NR Walker

Cover Reveal & Giveaway:
Method Acting
By N.R. Walker

Cover Designer: Natasha Snow
Model: Paolo
Photographer: Xram Ragde

Coming July 19th

Franklin University Series Season 2, Book 7

Chase Soria

Every budding actor knows acting is a difficult gig. There will be grueling auditions and punishing rejections. If you’re lucky, there’ll be roles that pay the bills and even roles that won’t.

Roles we don’t believe in.

But that’s what acting is—acting as if we do believe in them.

So when the semester’s production project is announced and I’m cast as one of the leads, I’m ecstatic. A lot of responsibility, a lot of work, but I’m up for it. Even when I find out what my role is and who my partner is. Amos, the brooding James Dean wannabe, is my on-screen boyfriend. Which is great, except for the fact he hates me.

I can do this. It’s just acting.

Nothing more.

Amos Beddington

The 90s are back, apparently. 90210 and Friends, but with a reality TV spin, which means cameras following us around as if they’re capturing the everyday lives of Franklin U students.

Me, but not me.

Me, with no more than a character description, no script or screenplay. Method acting, being the character 24/7, not just when the cameras are rolling. With a campus boyfriend.

Method acting is immersive and intense, and it can be confusing if the lines begin to blur. I mean, I’ve dreamed of being with the irritatingly gorgeous and annoyingly popular Chase Soria, and now I have to be his on-screen boyfriend?

I’m a good actor, sure. But how can I be convincing when I’m not sure I can even convince myself?

Rom-Com Reboot Book 2: You’ve Got Male by DJ Jamison

 

Rom-Com Reboot Book 2

My friends are all about the romance. Me? I've got other things to worry about.

Carrying on my uncle's little record store--his legacy--means everything to me. Too bad a big audio store promising to be the one-stop shop for music is opening across the street. The owner, Chase Fox, is too friendly, too smooth--too annoying. He knows I'm straight, and his competition besides, and still he flirts with me. My only comfort is the new friend I met on the Seattle Life site. We never exchanged real names, and I don't know if they're a guy or a girl, but there's a freedom in that. I can say anything to them without holding back. But as time goes on, I get more curious. And more confused. Could my online pal be more than a friend? Even if they're not a woman? And why are Chase's flirty smiles suddenly giving me flutters and making me wish for the impossible--that my business rival and my closest online friend might actually be the same guy. A guy meant to be mine. 

You've Got Male is Book 2 in the Rom-Com Reboot series that takes inspiration from classic Hollywood movies, gives them a new twist, a lot more M/M heat, and a satisfying HEA!

My Review: 5/5 Stars

Austin has been struggling to keep his uncle’s record store alive. His legacy means everything to Austin and he doesn’t want to mess it up. But things get complicated when Chase Fox comes to his neighborhood. Chase is setting up a store of his own based off his own grandmother’s chain, and the competition between the stores could be a real problem. Austin fears for his store and isn’t sure he can trust Chase’s promise of not wanting to harm Austin’s store but wants to work together to bring in business to the neighborhood. Plus it doesn’t help with Chase’s charm and constant flirting that confuses Austin more often than not. But little does Austin know the online friend he has and who he has a strong connection with is none other than Chase. And when the two finally realize it? Well, going from “rivals” to lovers is a whole new level of complicated. When Chase finds out, he is only more determined to prove to Austin that his feelings are real. That he likes both the online guy and the store owner. But can he prove that to Austin? These two were adorable! A very sweet rivals to lovers story, I couldn’t put this story down! This series is a ton of fun reimagining classic rom-coms and I can’t wait for more!
