Almost goodbye, May. :) How are you today, lovelies? Let me introduce my book feature for today, Fast Love by Zoe Adams.


Fast Love by Zoe Adams
Romance, Western Romance
Buy now: Amazon Kindle | Paperback


Indiana Bernstein lives life in the fast lane… 

Even when her famous father died in a racecar crash when she was fifteen, Indiana still dreamt of becoming a driver herself—but the terms of her father’s will required she finished college before claiming her inheritance. Putting her love of speed to good use, Indiana finished college by eighteen and pursued her goals…which also included superstar driver Richard Sand. 

Richard Sand’s career meant everything to him… 

A favorite of the fans and surrounded by beautiful women, Richard knew any hint of involvement with an underage girl would ruin him, and he was determined to stay away from fifteen year old Indiana, despite her obvious interest. But when she turned eighteen, there was no longer any reason to deny their attraction. 

Their relationship is shattered when Richard’s past catches up to him… 

When Richard receives devastating news, it appears there is no chance of a happily-ever-after with Indiana, who kicks her dedication to the racing circuit into high gear and tries to outrun her pain. 

Then Indiana’s own career takes a turn for the worse, and she must learn whether there’s a future for her anywhere other than in the cockpit of a racecar. 

Can Indiana find a way back to Richard and be the supportive woman he needs? 

The road ahead is far from easy…but the victory is sweet if you’re bold enough to take the risk on a fast man and a fast love.

Weekend is here, my dear lovelies! How are you? What are you reading today? I finished another book this week soooooo that means it's time to choose another one! :) 

Dead Run by Erica Spindler
Mass Market Paperback | Kindle

"I'm in trouble, Liz. I've uncovered something.… They're watching.…"

That panicked message on her answering machine is the last time Liz Ames hears from her sister Rachel, pastor of Paradise Christian Church in Key West, Florida.

Compelled to uncover the truth about her sister's disappearance, she heads to Key West. Within hours of her arrival a successful banker jumps to his death. Then a teenage girl whom Rachel was counseling is found brutally murdered. The ritualistic style of the killing is hauntingly similar to that used by the notorious "New Testament" serial killer—now on death row.

Could the teen's murder be related to Rachel's disappearance? Is a copycat killer at work? And why do the police refuse to help?

For answers, Liz turns to Rick Wells, a former Miami cop who worked the fringes of the "New Testament" investigation. Together they peel away layers of deception to reveal a terrifying adversary—and the unspeakable evil at the heart of this island paradise.

I'm really excited about this one. How about you - what are you reading? Please let me know in the comments below.

Title: Always the Baker, Never the Bride
Author: Sandra D. Bricker
Contemporary Romance
Form: Kindle edition

Book Description: Always the Baker, Never the Bride


Always the Baker, Never the Bride by Sandra D. Bricker
Paperback | Hardcover | Kindle edition

They say you can’t have your cake and eat it too. But who would want a cake they couldn’t eat?Just ask Emma Rae Travis about that. A baker of confections who is diabetic and can’t enjoy them. When Emma meets Jackson Drake, the escapee from Corporate America who is starting a wedding destination hotel to fulfill a dream that belonged to someone else, this twosome and their crazy family ties bring new meaning to the term "family circus." The Atlanta social scene will never be the same.

Always the Baker, Never the Bride ~ Book Review

I love the recipes - just delicious! Unique set of characters. The story is alright, simple and entertaining in a way. – Ara of My Book and My Coffee

Welcome to Emma Rae Travis’ world. Emma Rae is a diabetic master baker. Yes. It’s a bit sad, right? But you know, it’s also inspiring. 

Jackson Drake is an interesting ex-Corporate guy who’s starting a wedding destination hotel.  The ‘craziness’ begins right after their worlds meet. 

The story, as I’ve mentioned above, is just alright. It’s wonderful in its own way and I find it to be entertaining. There were a few scenarios where I got confused but after re-reading, I did get what was happening or who said what. 

[Spoiler Alert] When Emma Rae started working for Jackson, I knew already that it will start something special. And it eventually did. But since Jackson is still undergoing something painful, their ‘something special’ had to wait for a little bit. One of the things that I can say I’m not that thrilled of is how the story kind of took a long time to head to the direction it should be going. Maybe because of how the story was created but I feel like it could have been better. For me, the story got really exciting when that ‘something special’ finally started between the two main characters. 

This book has a unique set of characters and I appreciated them all. Of course, my favorite character is Emma Rae, our main character, because she did inspire me. I am not diabetic but what her character does is just inspiring. Imagine this: You’re a baker. Oh wait, not just a baker, an award-winning baker and yet you’re diabetic. So you cannot really have cake and eat it, too. Maybe just a taste though. A tiny bite. It’s just cruel, right? But this character proved that it doesn’t matter. If you’re passionate enough with something, do it. Even though you cannot really enjoy the outcome. That’s inspiring… and brave, don’t you think? 

Jackson’s character is also quite lovely. He is lucky to have his sisters and Emma. Jackson’s sisters are also entertaining. I can almost hear their accent and I love, love it! I also like Fee’s character because she's unique and dependable. 

There’s a wedding at the end so I’ll leave you to guess. 

Whose wedding is it? You’ll have to find out for yourself. :)


Thanks for reading!

Book Spotlight: The Dream Diaries by Philip Hoy

Book Spotlight: The Dream Diaries by Philip Hoy - Book Tour

The rumor at school is that after the varsity quarterback broke her heart, Evelyn Hernandez broke his hand. Then she demolished his car, beat up his girlfriend, and smashed all the windows in his house—or so the story goes. Some say that under the long hair and blunt cut bangs, beneath the cute dresses and colorful tights, and behind the pretty face and big brown eyes … hides a black-hearted, spell-casting, evil witch.

Only Evelyn doesn’t care what people at school say, or think. She couldn’t be happier. Her bullies have been brought to justice, her parents trust her, and she has a boyfriend who adores her. She’s even returned to drawing in her journal … but that’s when the nightmares begin.

Evelyn believes her violent dreams are messages from the future. Something terrible is going to happen at her school and only she can stop it—but how, and at what price?
