Tell Me The Truth by Felicia Heilgendorff
4.0
Katie has no memory of her life prior to the past 3 years since she was in an accident.
Ronny is her best friend.
Jen took her in and supported her after losing her memory and is a friend of the family.
Marc, her boyfriend she started dating just prior to the accident.
She leaves Germany and all of them behind to finish her degree at a college in Denmark.
Her flatmate Sam looks exactly like her and claims to be her twin sister.
To us the readers and to Eva, a friend she’s just met at school it all seems very strange that no one is sharing anything about having a twin or not, her parents, or anything about the accident that took her memory.
Crazy pager turner just to find out what is going on, so hard to put down. I began to get very frustrated while reading with the unknown, which can be either a really good book or maybe maybe I’m just too impatient with it by 50% in, with no real clues of her past, just sprinkles of madness or wonder?

The Housemaid by Freida McFadden

OMG WOWEEE!!!
What an amazing book! I loved every single second of it.
This is the best page turner.
Millie, just out of a 10 year sentence in prison, is having trouble finding a job.
Nina is desperate to find a housekeeper.
Just when you think you know what’s going on or going to happen, you’re so wrong!
Your head will spin and you won’t be able to sleep until you finish this baby!!
OMG I need book 2!! I can’t wait til the 20th
Incredible writing, I could easily become addicted to Freida McFadden’s writing, ok stop I am!!!
Great choice my 1st kindle purchase, zero regrets!

The Game She Plays by Siena Sterling
5.0
Nicola (Nic) is from Maine, now living in Buffalo NY.
She meets James who’s from London on a plane while traveling to Paris.
They hit it off and fall in love.
Juliet is James's ex girlfriend who has been in Hong Kong for the past several years, she makes Nic a bit jealous.
Trez is married to Hugo, he’s next in line to become an Earl, they live in a mansion in London’s countryside. They’re trying to get pregnant. They have all their friends for the weekend shoot adventure that goes suspiciously wrong.
Much thanks to the Author, Publisher and NetGalley for this free ARC in exchange for my honest review, it was so hard to put this book down.
The ending will have you both pondering and for me I’m hoping for a sequel.

Her Unexpected Match by Lacey Baker

It's a cute little Hallmark type story. That’s not my type of fiction, romance. But if you like Hallmark movies this cute romantic mystery is just perfect.
Thank you to NetGalley for providing this book, it is a pleasure to review this book.

Leigh Makes Three by Grace Pearce
5.0
Twins Leigh & Owen. Loving and close as brother and sister could ever be.
Wes is Owen's best friend.
Emma is Leigh’s best friend.
This is a wonderful & beautiful love story! It’s sweet, spicy and written in a way that’s just so intoxicating but not at all cringeworthy. It gives you those good all over feelings, leaving you unable to put it down and stay up all night long to finish. I never wanted it to end, I could have continued reading about their love story daily!
This is what most like myself dream of having. The characters, friends, families are all so enjoyable and loveable!
Thank you so much to Grace for my free copy! I loved every minute of it.

The Spare Room by Andrea Bartz
3.0
Sadly, this was a no for me. It had such great plot potential but it didn’t turn around so it was a miss for me.
I expected a thriller/mystery, but it was more of just a psychological domestic drama, talking about break-ups and living in a threesome..
I will admit vs not DNF i skimmed through many parts that lost my interest.
It just didn’t seem realistic and I continued on hoping for a good ending.
Thank you to NetGalley for an arc of Spare Room in exchange for an honest review.
I HATE giving bad reviews – it just makes me feel so bad, because so much of a review is based on personal opinion.
2.5 Stars

Maybe One Day by Sarah Douglas
5.0
4 friends Hayley & Tom brother and sister.
Jace & Millie also brother & sister, each are the best of friends.
1 set fall in love. 1 of the boys dies in a tragic accident just before his high school graduation.
Just over 2 years later Hayley begins college.
We meet Pippa, Owen and Eden.
It’s full of suspense, mystery and truly romantic thoughts, dreams and loss.
So sizzling hot and romantic.
I got the chills reading it and thinking that someone was unbelievably too romantic, I guess it’s because it’s what we all wish for, this kind of love.
Thank you to Net Galley, the publisher and Author for allowing me to read this incredible book in exchange for a review. I absolutely loved every minute of it.

Only Love Can Hurt Like This by Paige Toon
4.0
"You can't help who you fall in love with...."
A mesmerizing tale of pure romance.
Wren thought she had it all.
She’s an architect, engaged and content?
Scott, her fiance, falls in love with a coworker.
Heart-broken and confused by the ending of their engagement, Wren takes a trip to Indiana, to visit her father and his family.
Anders and Wren's romance is one centered around coming home and healing, it was a slow-burn that was so rewarding..
I was completely consumed by their story.
Thank you to netgalley, Penguin and the Author for the opportunity to read this arc in exchange for an honest review. I Loved this book so much!!! I cannot stop thinking about it!!

The Jilliad by Nicole McInnes
4.0
Jillian is married to Lawrence a College professor, they have a son Evan.
Jillian catches Lawrence with one of his students.
Hadley is Jillian’s best friend since childhood who comes to her rescue to take her back home where they grew up.
Bodhi was her 1st love.
Gunnar is Bodhi’s friend and a war vet.
This is a story of seeking and finding oneself, a new chapter, a new beginning. Just when you think your life is where you thought it should be or would be, it’s not. Truly relatable and coming of age of what’s not the norm in today’s world. It’s beautifully written and gave me hope.
