MY BEAUTIFUL NEIGHBOR
By Piper Rayne
Release Day February 23, 2021

Who’s the mystery woman who just walked into my brewery?

I’m not the only one from my Alaskan small town asking themselves that question. But I’m positive, I’m the only one in Sunrise Bay undressing the pretty blonde in my head. Everything about her, from her make-up to her high heels says she’s a fish out of water.

Whispers and speculations run rampant until the secret of who she is gets uncovered. Then the rumor mill goes into overdrive when she announces she’s staying to open a bookstore in the building next to mine—throwing a big wrench into my plans to buy that empty building.

I quickly find myself in a tug-of-war since my business partner/brother is upset she’s ruined the opportunity to expand our business. I try to keep my distance, but I’ve got one sister with a gossip column on the local radio station and two meddling grandmas setting me up as a tour director.

And now I kind of like the idea of our new neighbor staying. But small-town life isn’t for the weak—time will tell if she has what it takes to be one of us.

[Review] LOVERBOY (The Company #2) by Sarina Bowen


Source: Received an egalley in exchange for an honest review.
Release Date: December 1, 2020
Number of Pages: 320 (Kindle)

DESCRIPTION

Secrets, desires, and exquisite pie. It’s all in a day’s work at The Company.

Growing up, I was the rough guy from the wrong neighborhood who couldn’t catch a break. Posy was the pampered girl I tried to impress. But I managed to steal only a single kiss before I had to skip town.
Now I’m back, and the tables are turned. Posy runs a struggling pie shop. I’m the VP of a secretive billion dollar security company.

Not that I can tell her.

There’s a murderer on the loose in New York, and he seems to spend a lot of time at Posy’s shop. I can’t let on that I’m here to bring him down before he can harm a hair on her pretty head.
Going undercover as Posy’s new barista wasn’t my idea. I don’t even drink coffee. But now I have to call her “boss,” and do everything the curvy perfectionist asks of me. I’d forgotten how much we infuriate each other, and that she somehow fills me with both irritation and desire in the same breath.
There’s nobody more skilled at stealth ops than me. I can bring this killer down. Right after I take a cold shower. And just as soon I figure out how to make a skinny peppermint latte with milk poured in the shape of a kitten...


Note: This is Gunnar's book (Max's right-hand man)

REVIEW

I'm a huge fan of Sarina Bowen's Brooklyn/Brooklyn Bruisers series, so I love that The Company is a spin-off of it! I'm always a fan of seeing familiar characters, so I was super excited to read LOVERBOY! I do still have to go back and read MOONLIGHTER, but I was able to keep up with this one since they work as standalones. The interesting thing about The Company is that it's a little bit different compared to a lot of Sarina Bowen's other romances because it has some romantic suspense elements. It still contains all of the delightful things her romances usually have...but it has that added tension and level of anticipation, which I thought she did very well. 

I absolutely adored Gunnar and Posy! Their chemistry was phenomenal--their banter and teasing were fantastic, and I loved how the two of them fit together and how they complemented one another. Posy owns a pie shop called Posy's Pies, and I really loved how the shop played into the story. The food and coffee descriptions made me super hungry and desperate for a latte...and the descriptions were so vibrant. I also was super intrigued by Gunnar's work...he and the other members of The Company sure have mysterious pasts!
 
Overall, I thought that LOVERBOY was sexy, captivating, and super intriguing! I don't typically read a lot of romantic suspense, so this was a nice change of pace for me. I'd recommend this to contemporary romance fans who love a bit of suspense, vivid food descriptions, and intense chemistry between the leads.

Star Rating:

★★★★

[Blog Tour Review] THE DO-OVER (The Rooftop Crew #5) by Piper Rayne



Source: Received an egalley to give an honest review.
Also purchased Kindle copy on Amazon CA.
Release Date: December 1, 2020
Number of Pages: 237 (ebook)

DESCRIPTION

She was always the one.
Or so I thought.
Turns out my instincts were dead wrong.

Years ago I was faced with the choice between two women. Both were perfect in opposite ways. One was carefree and against commitment. The other was a woman you’d bring home to mom.

I was young, naïve and stupid. I’m sure you can guess who I chose.

Now, I’m older, wiser and know what the hell I want.

So, when the same two women pop back into my life it’s my chance for a do-over. But they flipped the script. Just like me, they want different things now. Leaving me with one choice—convince the woman I want that she wants me too.

REVIEW

 Oh boy, this was one dramatic read! I've really come to love the variety in Piper and Rayne's Rooftop Crew series--they've been doing a great job with keeping the tropes fresh and the stories are all super different from one another. Most of all, I absolutely adore their friend group! I've been eager to read Knox's story for a while since he's been the quiet, mysterious one in the group up until now, and we definitely got to see some depth underneath his uniform. ;)

Part of the fun of this book is that the heroine is a bit of a mystery...is it Knox's ex...is it someone else? He's getting a do-over...but until you start reading you're not going to know who. ;) 

Since I'm trying to keep Knox's love a mystery...I'm going to keep this rather brief and say that I loved her! I loved getting to know her, loved how she and Knox grew closer and fell in love, and I really loved seeing how she fit into their friend group. Knox's parents were also super precious and I loved them, too. When it comes to Piper and Rayne's books, I'm always a sucker for the friend groups, and the family moments, and all of those lovely dynamics, and this one did it super well. 

Overall, I thought that THE DO-OVER was great! It was sexy, sweet, and I loved seeing Knox and his mystery lady fall in love! I was a little bit conflicted going into this one because Knox is a cop, and with everything that's gone on this year I honestly do feel a bit iffy reading romances where the heroes (or even the heroines) are police. That did kind of damper my excitement for this one, but all in all, I did enjoy it. A few other little things kept me from absolutely loving this one, namely Dylan's behaviour during parts of it and a tad too much drama for my personal taste, but it was an exciting, fun read and I definitely recommend it to contemporary romance fans who like second-chance stories, especially if you like them to have some twists and turns along the way.

Star Rating: ★★★★
