The Redemption of Callie & Kayden by Jessica Sorensen
The Redemption of Callie & Kayden is heartbreakingly beautiful. With that dozy of a cliff-hanger left at the end of coincidence I just knew it wouldn’t be long before I picked up the next in the series. It’s been quite some time since I’ve got my teeth into the Romance genre and I’d forgotten how much drama can be packed into a 350 page book. I’m not complaining but I could feel the whiplash starting to take effect, it was a fun ride. So the book takes off pretty much where it left off. Kayden is in a critical condition in hospital after suffering multiple stab wounds inflicted by his…

The Coincidence of Callie & Kayden by Jessica Sorensen
The Coincidence of Callie & Kayden hopelessly raw and heart-breaking. A love story that will keep you glued to the pages. This book is full of content warnings. There’s self-harming, parental abuse and rape. I don’t think anything I write could prepare you for what you’re about to read. Unfortunately crap things happens to good people and that is a tale as old as time. There’s nothing we can do to change it, evil people exist in this world and they will continue to do bad things. This is what The Coincidence of Callie & Kayden is all about. A coincidental meeting of two souls during hard times in both…

This Woman by Jodi Ellen Malpas
Jodie Ellen Malpas is back with the man that started it all, Jesse Ward. The trademark emotion is back. This Woman is bleeding in authenticity, welcome back to Central Jessie Cloud Nine! This Woman is Jesse Ward’s POV from the This Man series. It’s the story that we always wanted but didn’t think we’d get. Not going to lie, I’m a slave for this series, and always have been. I must have read it around five times. Jodie Ellen Malpas weaves a tale of trauma and emotional pain, and it doesn’t fail to tug at the heartstrings. It leaves an imprint that doesn’t fail to leave an imprint upon the…

One Night With the Duke by Jodi Ellen Malpas – REVIEW
One Night with the Duke dazzled with a wholly modern heroine with intensity and wit. Jodie Ellen Malpas proves once again why she has her finger on the pulse of engaging romance stories – she is a genre-busting Cameleon. It’s been so long since I read a book by Jodi Ellen Malpas. The last being the This Man series. Now…don’t come for me but I daren’t read her other series’ mainly because I didn’t think anything could surpass the perfection of Jesse Ward. I will change that after reading her new release, One Night with the Duke. Now, this isn’t generally my preferred genre of romance, I haven’t read any…

Until You (Fall Away #1.5) by Penelope Douglas
Until You is an emotive coming-of-age tale. Tender, funny, heart-breaking. Until You is Bully told from Jared’s perspective. I haven’t read many books that are entirely dedicated to telling the male side of the story. Getting inside his head was interesting if a little heart-breaking. We see that he fell in love with her before Bully’s events. He was pulled towards her, she was so different from all the other girls, she wore band t-shirts, converse and didn’t care to fit in. she walked to the beat of her own drum, and he loved her for it. He helped through the death of her mother but after a disastrous summer…

Bully by Penelope Douglas – REVIEW
Bully is a story of grief and teenage angst but one that highlights the complexities of forgiveness and redemption. Bully by Penelope Douglas was a refreshing change from what I usually do. Read I think it’s quite likely got me back into reading Romance again after losing my way with it around 2014. An enemy to lover’s trope. I actually really enjoyed what Penelope Douglas did with this. Tate and Jared grew up together. They did everything together, from climbing trees and gossiping to Jared supporting Tate through the loss of her mother six years ago. Then one summer he went away and was never the same again. He didn’t…
