πŸ’–πŸ’–πŸ’–πŸ’–πŸ’–/5  Stay by Elle Kennedy and Sarina Bowen, book two in the WAGs series, is an enjoyable story with the perfect blend of sweet and sizzling, with little angst/drama. Hailey co-owns a company called Fetch with her ex-husband. Fetch is a successful virtual person assistant app; catering quickly to the clients’ every need at any time or place. She’s been assisting one of her clients, Matt, who she believes to be a pro-hockey player; one of her favorites.

Flirting with the Past by Kaylie Newell

 πŸ’–πŸ’–πŸ’–πŸ’–πŸ’–/5 Flirting with the Past by Kaylie Newell,book one in the Hearts on Main Street series, is a wonderful and heartwarming story of healing and finding unexpected love when you believed you were unlovable. It is also a story of reconnections with your past and working toward a future you never expected to find. I loved this story and the way Poppy and Justin were able to work past their hurts, but how they helped Justin’s mother heal by moving past her anger. I also enjoyed the reconnecting of the cousins and the lessons young Mary taught the adults. I highly recommend this book to other readers.   I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book. #NetGalley #Harlequin

I had no plans to follow in my father’s footsteps working at the bank, and living the humdrum life of a family man. My world in fast-paced Vegas was far enough away from home to avoid that, or so I thought. When I was called into action, paying back an old debt to my former lieutenant, things went terribly wrong.

Maybe if they kept their relationship a secret they could con...
