Can’t Wait Wednesday: Betsy by Sarah Monzon

May 25, 2022 by Suzie Waltner 3 Comments

cant wait wednesday

Can’t-Wait Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted at Wishful Endings to spotlight and discuss the books we’re excited about that we have yet to read. Generally, they’re books that have yet to be released. It’s based on Waiting on Wednesday, hosted by the fabulous Jill at Breaking the Spine. If you’re continuing with WOW, feel free to link those up as well! Find out more here

I can’t wait for Sarah Monzon’s Betsy, the fifth and final book in the Sewing in So Cal rom-com series.

About the Book

Rule #1. Never fall for a musician
Rule #2. There are no exceptions to rule #1

As a professional sound engineer, I’m around musicians every day, so I know what I’m talking about when I say they aren’t boyfriend material. They’re only looking out for number one, and that ain’t you, honey. Give them a map with destination Not on Your Life, Mister highlighted, underlined, and circled for good measure.

That being said, what am I supposed to do with Asher North, lead singer of the band True North and my new boss? My glares don’t intimidate him, and my sarcasm only seems to draw him closer instead of pushing him away. The longer we’re on tour together, the less my rules make sense. And the more he looks at me the way he does, as if he can see right through the wall I’ve so diligently constructed, the more I want to throw those rules right out the window.

Match Me If You Can by Krista Phillips – Review

April 11, 2019 by Suzie Waltner Leave a Comment

The Resort to Romance series is still going strong. We’ve got a few more weeks in this 10-week novella release collection.

About the Book

Match Me If You CanHe was gifted a trip to the Bahama’s Matchmakers week. She was conned into it.

They’re both determined to leave matchless.

But neither count on losing their heart–

Ava Raleigh is going to strangle her best friend. Conned into going on a trip to the Bahamas for “Matchmaking” Week, Ava determines to everything she can to not be matched. She’d soak in the sun and enjoy every minute of her vacation–while completely ignoring whatever poor sap she gets matched with. What she doesn’t expect is to be forced to spend time with her match. And the tiny fact that her match is a giant.

Former NFL football player Sean Jackson is only on this trip because he loves his mother–nothing more. Sure, he feels guilty that some woman is paired with him and will be disappointed that he isn’t interested–but that is bound to happen to most of the couples anyway, right? But he never expects a woman like Ava Raleigh. She is a puzzle–one he shouldn’t want to put together but as the week goes on, he can’t help himself.

Ava refuses to fall for Sean. No way, not going to happen. He is all kinds of wrong for her. Not only is he out of her league, he also scares her more than a little. But as the week goes on, she comes to tolerate him–then even like him a little. Okay, fine, maybe a lot.

But then a phone call changes everything…

Teal Paisley Tights by Barbara Brutt – Review

January 3, 2019 by Suzie Waltner Leave a Comment

A couple of my blogger friends have recommended this book, so of course I had to read it!

 

About the Book

Teal Paisley Tights

 

Life post-graduation was supposed to see the launch of Jadyn’s art career, or at least an art gallery showing one of her watercolor paintings. Instead, this Pittsburgh native is locked into a low-paying consultant position with an impossible boss. When another coworker is fired, Jadyn inherits an extra workload, including the company’s biggest client. If she loses him, she’s fired.

Evicted from her apartment because of a small spending problem, she is forced to move in with her know-it-all sister. While everyone else plans a neat, buttoned-up life for her, Jadyn longs to paint professionally. Stretched like canvas between responsibility and dreams, she must choose.

Will practicality always win?

Lies, Love, and Breakfast at Tiffany’s by Julie Wright – Review

November 29, 2018 by Suzie Waltner Leave a Comment

A glass eye named Audrey, a friend who comes to the rescue, and a few revelations make Julie Wright’s November release one not to miss.

About the Book

Lies, Love and Breakfast at Tiffany'sThe Lie
Women in Hollywood are just pretty faces. But Silvia Bradshaw knows that’s a lie, and she’s ready to be treated as an equal and prove her worth as one of Hollywood’s newest film editors.
 
The Love
She and Ben Mason had worked together as editors before Silvia got her big break, so he’s the perfect person to ask for feedback on her first major film. But even as their friendship begins to blossom into something more, a lawsuit surfaces, jeopardizing both Ben and Silvia’s jobs—as well as their fledgling romance. Audrey Hepburn once said: “The most important thing is to enjoy your life—to be happy—it’s all that matters.” Silvia agrees. Or she used to. It’s one thing to risk her job and her heart, but can she really risk Ben’s, too? Does she have the right to make decisions for her own happiness when they affect so many other people?
 
The Breakfast
With everything to lose, Silvia meets Ben for breakfast at his favorite diner, Tiffany’s, for one last conversation before the credits roll on true love.

Literarily for Keeps by Sarah Monzon – Review

September 30, 2018 by Suzie Waltner 1 Comment

I’m not sure I’ve gushed enough about how much I loved Sarah Monzon’s first rom-com novella. Well, I here to tell you the second was even better!

 

About the Book

 

Literarily For Keeps

 

She only has to pretend to be married for five days. What’s the worst that could happen?

Literature professor Ashleigh Darmody never imagined her life would turn into a classic trope, but that’s exactly what happens when her sister Claire calls with a bizarre request–quickly find a fake husband. Backstory is a powerful thing, and Ashleigh’s has plenty of shadows, but is her past so shady that it requires an elaborate scheme to ensure Claire’s prospective father-in-law, renowned TV evangelist Ken Abrams, will give her his blessing to marry his son?
Already divorced from a man who turned out to be other than he claimed, Ashleigh now has to pretend to be blissfully married to a stranger for the next five days. But when the lines of fiction and reality blur with each tick of the clock, could a temporary deal turn into something for keeps?
