July 2021 Wrap Up πŸŽ†πŸ’₯πŸŽ‡


Hello friends! I hope you're all doing well. I can't believe we're over halfway done with 2021. This year seems to be going on forever. Maybe that's just me, but I definitely felt like July drug on. I'm also in a reading slump. It was so hard for me to finish two books in July!! ACOMAF was an audible book so I didn't even have to do much to finish it. You'll find the link to that review at the end of this somewhat short wrap-up. 

Official Reviews
Book #2: This Is Love ⭐⭐⭐
By: Kennedy Fox

About This Is Love:

Viola Fisher is the epitome of perfection.
She despises my one-night stands and mocks my less-than-classy habits.
She’s smart, beautiful, and too good to be true. And I want her.


If she were anyone else, I’d have made my move years ago, but considering she’s my best friend’s little sister, she’s always been off-limits. Not to mention how much she loathes my very existence. Hating me is her religion, but needing her is mine. Her sexy curves and filthy smart mouth make me want her even more, and I’m more determined than ever to change her mind.

I’ll prove I’m done playing games. But until then, we’ll continue to play by her rules.
Viola Fisher may have won the battle, but the war isn’t over yet.

Checkmate, Princess.

This is book 2 in the Travis & Viola duet and must be read in order. Suggested for mature readers only.

3.5 Adorable HEA--Well, I will say I’m not surprised by how this book played out. I saw a majority of this happening. I will say the storyline gets kinda quick-paced and jumpy. For the most part, I followed along alright. I was happy Travis & Viola got their crap in line. I love Courtney and I can’t wait to read her story next. Drew will be interesting because quite honestly I don’t care for him in this book. I’m happy Travis got some closure/reconnection with his dad & his mom is the sweetest. All in all, not a bad read.

Book #3: This Is Reckless 
By: Kennedy Fox

About This Is Reckless:

Drew Fisher is the type of guy every girl wants.
Noble police officer by day, charming prince by night.


He has no idea the effect he has on women, especially me—his little sister’s best friend. I’m the blonde Southern belle who lives up to the clichΓ©, except I have my own quirks. I’m smart as a whip, can change my own oil, and recite The Pledge of Allegiance backward, but he doesn’t see that girl. It’d be easier to forget him if he wasn’t my roommate and if the first thing I saw in the morning wasn't his shirtless body covered in tattoos. I’ve crushed on him since the day we met, but he’s made it perfectly clear where we stand—just friends.

I know I need to move on and accept that his feelings will never be mutual, but every day he smiles at me, I’m left dreaming of what if. He has girl issues, and I’ve got a crush I can’t deny. We’re friends, but I want more. One drunken hookup leaves us with much more than a platonic friendship. Pretending it never happened proves to be more difficult than anticipated.

A crazy ex-girlfriend, a dangerous war of stolen glances, and passionate kisses leads to the most reckless battle yet. I won’t be a pawn in his game, but I’ll play by his rules if it will show him I’m the one worth breaking them for.

Checkmate, Prince Charming.

This is book 1 in the Drew & Courtney duet and must be read first. Suggested for mature readers only.

What kinda ending is that???--Courtney is everything you’d want in a best friend and girlfriend. Drew is a loyal brother and boyfriend. I was so happy when they finally got their chance together! I’m also happy we got to see Travis and Viola be together & parents :) I will say I did see that ending coming and I’m salty it did happen! Onto book 2 I go.
