Hot Daddy

Genre : Contemporary romance, New Adult

♥♥♥

My review

Like every book I read by Lila Monroe, Hot Daddy was an addictive read. This is the kind of story you read in one go. It is as sweet as it is sexy and Cal delivers exactly what you expect from the title : a caring and hot daddy.

Spread the love 🙂

  • 🌟🌟🌟🌟 Happy release day to @ellekennedy33 !
The Risk (Briar U #2) is now available 🎉🎉
.
About The Risk:

Everyone says I’m a bad girl. They’re only partly right—I don’t let fear rule me, and I certainly don’t care what people think. But I draw the line at sleeping with the enemy. As the daughter of Briar’s head hockey coach, I’d be vilified if I hooked up with a player from a rival team.

And that’s who Jake Connelly is. Harvard’s star forward is arrogant, annoying, and too attractive for his own good. But fate is cruel—I require his help to secure a much-coveted internship, and the sexy jerk isn’t making it easy for me.

I need Connelly to be my fake boyfriend.

For every fake date…he wants a real one.

Which means this bad girl is in big trouble. Nothing good can come from sneaking around with Jake Connelly. My father would kill me, my friends will revolt, and my post-college career is on the line. But while it’s getting harder and harder to resist Jake’s oozing sex appeal and cocky grin, I refuse to fall for him.

That’s the one risk I’m not willing to take.

❤ I was waiting for this story for so long and like always with this author, she didn't disappoint.

Adding the modern Romeo and Juliet vibe to what Elle Kennedy does best : hilarious scenes, lively dialogues, a relationship coming along naturally and beautifully, honest and assertive characters and a more than endearing couple, was a big win for me!

So a couple of days ago I finally got to read ACOFAS by Sarah J Mass. I won't lie, it was a little disappointing. Nothing really happens but let's say it sets the vibe for the next book that is coming and I just can't wait! Also, it was really cool to read again about those dear characters!
.
I have a lot more to say about this book and the story in general and most importantly the characters but I don't want to spoil anyone who hasn't read it so 🤐
Fortunately I was able to vent with those amazing and (extremely) passionate ladies 🤣 @jemimajamir @_bookish_affair_ @liber_lady . Thank you for being here ❤
.
What about you ? Have you read it ? What did you think ?
  • 🎆🎉 Happy New Year guys!!! 🎉🎆 I wish you all the best and everything you wish for but especially health for you and your family because that's the most important thing ❤

📚 B O O K  R E V I E W 📚

One of my last read of 2018 was Josh & Hazel's guide to not dating by @christinalauren

I gave it 5 🌟. This story was like a warm hug. When this book didn't make me laugh, it put a big smile on my face all along! It was funny, sweet and refreshing. You could feel the love in its purest way. This read was just wonderful! Don't get me started on those incredible characters. I still miss them and plan on re-reading this story for sure.
.
There was a time when I used to watch K-Dramas and while this book is nothing like it, certain things reminded me of what I loved about them.
.
Josh was the serious relationship type of guy and didn't play around which I found refreshing. He was serious, sweet and responsible which I loved! He valued family and friends and the way he respected and got attached to Hazel was soooo cute.
.
I loved Hazel as well. She was quirky and unapologetic about who she was and just so adorable. These two. Seriously guys. These two 😍😍 My heart feels so full just remembering...
.
Have you read it ? I'm curious to know what you thought 💕
.
QOTD : Have you set bookish goals for this year ?
  • ❤🎅 Merry Christmas to those who celebrate!! 🎅❤
.
I personally don't but I enjoy the food 🍬🍭🍪, the wonderful atmosphere and of course Christmas movies and BOOKS!!! I especially love romances set around Christmas time, they're so comforting 🤗💖
.
QOTD : What is your favorite #christmasreads ?
  • Hotshot Doc is live guys!!! 😍😍
This book was a definite 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 read for me!
.
This book is the perfect romantic comedy with the right amount of angst.

I love everything R.S. Grey has written and this one beats everything else for me.
I miss Bailey and Matt so much. I want a book 2. I want to get back to the story and see how they are doing. This is how much I miss them! This is how much I loved those two characters!

This story was so sweet and so funny! R.S. Grey's humor is the best.
HotShot Doc left me with a warm and fuzzy feeling all along.

I absolutely loved it. And I highly recommend it for every romance lover.

.
This quote must speak to us all bookworms 🤗
.
So this post to speak of my love for this author. More than her work, it's the woman I truly admire. She is such an inspiration.
.
To defy society like she did and fight for her independence as a woman in a field dominated by men during her time is really brave. Not to mention the beauty of her work.
.
QOTD : Do you like Jane Austen ? What is your favorite book by her ? 📚

Hope you have a wonderful Monday and week 😘❤
  • ⚠️⚠️ Warning : a long post will surely follow (with lots of rambling) 👇👇
.
It's been so long since I've posted here, I'm not sure I still know how.
.
The main reason of my absence is because I didn't feel comfortable anymore around here. I felt like most people were competing with each other about I don't know what, mostly followers or the best pictures, etc. My feed was full of promo stuff and my account quite of became that too. And as much as I feel like promo is essential and I love to do it for books I can't wait for, I think I've lost touch with the reason why I started this account in the first place. I missed the feeling of needing to share my thoughts on a book right after reading it to express how much and why I loved this particular book even if it's the umpteenth romance book I've read.
.
During this period of time I never stopped reading. I kept posting a few words now and then here or on Goodreads but nothing more. And it felt SO good to enjoy reading again for myself and remember why it all started. 😍❤
.
Another reason why I've stopped posting here is because I've had an insane schedule for the last few months, travelling a lot for work. During one of those trips, I forgot my kindle in my hotel room 😱😱 so I've asked the hotel to send it back to me and in the meantime audio books saved me! 🎧📚
It was hard for me to carry paperbacks with all the moving so audio books came in handy.
.
This allowed me to discover books I've wanted to read for a long time. Vicious by @authorljshen was one of them. And I absolutely LOVED it. A detailed review is coming up on my blog soon. 😍❤
I feel like I've bored you enough with this post. That is if you even made it this far 😅

(👇 this continues on the comment below)
  • 🌟🎉🌟🎉Today is release day for Not So Nice Guy by @authorrsgrey !!!🌟🎉🌟🎉
.
I'm so excited!
Guys, my love for R.S. Grey is no secret but I just can't believe she has done it again.
.
You know I've loved every book of hers I've read and every time I feel like she can't write something better than this. And yet, she does.
.
I absolutely loved Not So Nice Guy. It included all my favorite tropes : friends to lovers, office romance. This was perfect : funny, sweet and sexy and I loved Sam and Ian so much.
.
This is the perfect read for this summer.
.
I still need to organize my thoughts so I can write a structured review so I'll post it in the days to come otherwise I'll just keep writing that I LOVE LOVE LOVE this book so much! But seriously, you just need to read it. Do not think, just grab it and enjoy! ❤❤❤
  • 🌟🌟🌟The Chase by @ellekennedy33 is live!!! 🌟🌟🌟
.
This book was too good! I needed a good romance and the timing for The Chase was perfect.
.
I've loved every book I've read by Elle Kennedy and this one didn't disappoint either. If you loved the Off-campus series, you'll love the Broad U. Book 1 was a delight and I already can't wait for the rest!
.
Blurb :

Everyone says opposites attract. And they must be right, because there’s no logical reason why I’m so drawn to Colin Fitzgerald. I don’t usually go for tattoo-covered, video-gaming, hockey-playing nerd-jocks who think I’m flighty and superficial. His narrow view of me is the first strike against him. It doesn’t help that he’s buddy-buddy with my brother.

And that his best friend has a crush on me.

And that I just moved in with them.

Oh, did I not mention we’re roommates?

I suppose it doesn’t matter. Fitzy has made it clear he’s not interested in me, even though the sparks between us are liable to burn our house down. I’m not the kind of girl who chases after a man, though, and I’m not about to start. I’ve got my hands full dealing with a new school, a sleazy professor, and an uncertain future. So if my sexy brooding roomie wises up and realizes what he’s missing?

He knows where to find me.
