[46] Falling by T.J. Newman
Fiction / Thrillers / Suspense, saw on Stephany’s blog, Kindle

Synopsis: A pilot on a commercial flight from LA to NYC is told his entire family will be killed if he doesn’t purposefully crash the plane.

Review: What a high stakes, thrilling story. It starts out intense and never lets down. I struggled with some of the violent parts, especially with the pilot’s family, but mostly enthralled the entire read.

Recommend? Yes, if you can handle it

[47] Their Last Resort by R.S. Grey
Fiction / Romance / Romantic Comedy, free Amazon First Reads book?, Kindle

Synopsis: Paige and Cole work at the same resort and can’t stand each other. But when Cole is told he has to fire Paige, he does everything he can not to. Then there is a hurricane that brings them together. Or something.

Review: This felt like such an amateur entry into the romance world. The writing was weak and cheesy at best, and the story was mostly boring and anticlimactic. Not for me.

Recommend? No

[48] Wild Love (Rose Hill, #1) by Elsie Silver
Fiction / Romance / Contemporary, rec from snis, Kindle

Synopsis: Billionaire Ford Grant has returned to the tiny picturesque town his family summered in to escape the press and open a recording studio. Then a 12-year-old shows up saying she’s his daughter. Then his best friend’s sister, Rosie, moves back to town. Now Ford is trying to get his new business going, learn how to parent, and try to keep his hands off Rosie, who he’s had a crush on since they were kids.

Review: I am usually NOT a second chance romance fan, but with the enemies to lovers vibe, I was totally here for it. I loved how sassy Rosie was and how fake mean she and Ford were to each other. Their chemistry was great. I was thrown off by the daughter thing in the beginning (because I did not read the synopsis) and thought it might ruin the story, but her character ended up adding a lot. The dark moment in the story was kind of weak and sort of out of the blue and there was definitely some cheesy parts, but I loved the book and am excited for the next one in the series (about Rosie’s brother) to come out in September. Oh! And I almost forgot! Great open door sections (smut) too.
