Synopsis:

EAT. SLEEP. FOOTBALL. 

Those are Jackson Jennings, Jr’s three mantras . His entire life, he’s been a trained athlete with only one end-game: the Pro’s. No girls. No parties. No alcohol. 

EAT. SLEEP. FOOTBALL. 

Repeat. 

Every Friday night, Triple J cruises the strip on campus, bored, lonely and conditioned not to party. But the night he meets Charlotte Edmonds on the side of the road, he wonders if his three mantras will ever be enough. 

BIG. DUMB. JOCK. 

Charlie has no time for Jackson’s antics. Not when he’s stealing her food or teases her to no end, making her tingle in all the right places. But if she’s ever going to have a boyfriend, she’d choose one who isn’t a Neanderthal. One with manners and actual time to spend with her. Not a hulking man-child who cruises the strip at night, in his Big. Dumb. Truck.

Review:

Sara Ney has done it again!!! The newest addition to her Jock Hard Series, Jock Road, was an unputdownable reading escape! All of her books have given me a book hangover and this one was no exception. It feels so good to pick a book and realize from the very first page that this story will make you smile, swoon and cheer for these amazing characters! 

In Jock Road, we follow Charlie and Jackson’s journey. Charlie is the kind of heroine I love to cheer for and Jackson is the swoony hero that will melt your heart! Jackson can’t afford any distractions. He has a clear road for his football career and he’s been doing a good job at following that road until Charlie comes along. She’s about to turn his world upside down and he just can’t get enough of her. 

The connection I have with the characters is very important to me. I know right from the start if I will connect with them. It took me no time at all to fall in love with Charlie and Jackson. They complete each other perfectly and I loved their chemistry. Their journey was filled with laughs romance and swoon galore. This book was written in a dual POV and trust me when I say that you will love reading both these POV’s. 

If you’re a fan of Sports Romance, don’t hesitate to escape into the Jock Hard world. Sara Ney is an incredible author that knows how to bring an unforgettable reading journey. Her writing style is captivating and fun and her characters will leave you cheering for them from beginning to end! If you are scared that you will be confused if you pick up Jock Road before any of the other books in the series, don’t be. All the books in this series can be read as a standalone. This is exactly the kind of book I needed to get out of my book funk. Jock Road was everything I expected it to be. I loved every minute of it! I highly recommend this entire series!

Review:

If you have never read anything by Sara Ney, Switch Bidder is the perfect novella to give you a little peek at how phenomenal this author is. Novellas in my opinion are great to discover new authors and Sara Ney is an author that you ABSOLUTELY need on your TBR list! Her writing style is captivating and her stories linger with you for days after you turned the last page.

Piper Davenport is about to step out of her comfort zone. She has been crushing on Ryder Williams for four awkward years. Things get interesting between Piper and Ryder because of an auction that her best friend won for her. Piper's world is about to be turned upside down and Ryder is right by her side for this rollercoaster ride. 

Switch Bidder is the second novella in the Jock Hard Series and it can be read as a standalone. This was a super quick read that left a smile on my lips.  Piper and Ryder are a fantastic duo and I had fun following their little journey. Even if this was a quick novella, I loved how I connected immediately with both of these characters. I really enjoyed my reading escape and I highly recommend this book and the entire Jock Hard Series by Sara Ney. You will not be disappointed!

Synopsis:

ABRAHAM DAVIS—Honest Abe to his friends—IS IN OVER HIS HEAD... 

He’s a fixer and a do good-er. The all-knowing, resident "grandfather" on the wrestling team who everyone relies on to fix their problems. His teammates go to him for everything; advice, homework, or when they need a sober driver at three in the morning--whether he likes it or not. 

Abe’s current mission is easy: mend his roommates broken heart by helping him find a girlfriend on the LoveU app--without getting caught in the lie... 

SKYLAR GABRIEL. IS. OVER. IT. 

Over her bad grades. Over her meddling older brother and his two best friends. And over dating douchebags. What she wants to know is: where have all the nice guys gone? 

She longs for a handsome, sweet, and honest guy who can make her laugh. In one last ditch effort to prove that he exists—Skylar turns to LoveU. 

On her worst day, Skylar has no filter (it’s a miracle she hasn’t been ditched mid-date). On her best, she’s as wholesome, and sweet, as pie. On Thursday? She matches with Abraham Davis’s roommate. 

Skylar Gabriel is falling for the wrong guy—she just doesn’t realize it yet. 

Why? 

BECAUSE ABE DAVIS IS A LIAR.

Review:

The How to Date a Douchebag Series is where it all started for me! The Studying Hours (HtDaD, #1) was my first book by Sara Ney and I never looked back! I have read every single one of her books and she's in my top five favorite authors. If you are looking for a fun, sexy and unputdownable read, look no further! Sara Ney always delivers the laughs, the sexiness and all the feels!

I was really excited to find out that one of my favorite series of all times was getting another book. I was really sad when I read the last words of The Coaching Hours (HtDaD, #4) thinking it was my last reading escape in this super fun world Sara Ney created. When I learned that the series was continuing, I was over the moon excited!!!

I really enjoyed The Lying Hours. From the fun texting between Skylar and Abe to the awesome supporting cast of characters, this was a reading escape that had me turning the pages from beginning to end! It was fun to see Skylar Gabriel and Abe Davies interact on the LoveU app. Skylark is so over dating douchebags. She wants to find a good guy and Abe Davies is exactly what she's looking for. The only problem is she thinks he's someone else. Abe is caught in a major lie when he tries to help his friend on the LoveU app. He meets Skylar and the last thing he wants is to see her go out on a date with his friend. Skylar Gabriel is falling for him. She just doesn't know it yet. What will happen when Abe's lie is revealed?

Skylar and Abe had an amazing chemistry and it was entertaining to see them get to know each other. Skylar was a fun heroine that knew exactly what she wanted. Abe was a sweetheart and I have to admit that he's one of my favorites in this series. I was super excited when my favourite douchebag of them all made an appearance in this book. I won't spoil it for fans of this series, but trust me that you will love every minute of his role in this story. I also really liked Hannah. She's Skylar's best friend and she's hilarious!!!! We all need a Hannah in our lives! 

The Lying Hours was an awesome reading journey that left me with a smile on my face! I am so glad that this series is not over and I can't wait for my next reading journey with the DtDaD crew. If you have not read anything by Sara Ney yet, you are seriously missing out!

Book Synopsis:

I knew something was wrong the second she walked in the door tonight; I just couldn’t put my finger on what it was. 

Same hair color. 
Same legs. 
Same face.

Except…I look harder. At the small dimple beneath her lip that wasn’t there the last time we went out. And her laugh—that laugh isn’t as loud. 

This isn’t the girl I’ve gone out with the past few weeks. It’s her twin sister, and they’ve switched places on me. 

Only I’m not quite ready to let them switch back.

My Thoughts:

Switch Hitter was a fun, sexy, and fast-paced short little novella.  I've never read anything by Sara Ney before, and my co-blogger/book twin, Mikki, loves all of her books.  I liked the book cover, and when I read the book summary, I thought to myself, "This sounds like a good read!"  I was looking for something short to read, and a book I could get lost in...Well, Switch Hitter proved to be a really good reading escape!

Amelia and Lucy are identical twins, but they couldn't be more different!  Amelia is introverted, down to earth, responsible, and has substance.  Her twin Lucy is outgoing, only dates the most gorgeous guys (usually jocks,) that have a good chance at going pro one day, and heavily depends on Amelia to bail her out of the constant trouble she gets herself into from her irresponsible actions.  

On one such instance, Lucy has accidentally booked herself two dates on the same night, and begs Amelia to pretend to be her for one of these dates.  Even though Amelia really doesn't want to, she bails Lucy out as usual.  However, what happens when Amelia starts to fall for Dante?

Switch Hitter was a good time!  The pages flew by, and the chemistry between Amelia and Dante was palpable.  I enjoyed seeing Amelia let her hair down, relaxing, and slipping up with Dante by being herself.  It was sexy and sensual when they connected with one another, spoke Spanish to each other, flirted, laughed, talked, and danced.  I loved watching these two fall for one another, and wanted Amelia to tell Dante who she really was!  

This story is a nice little intro into the Jock Hard Series, and I really want to read, Jock Row, the first full length story.  If you're looking for a light, fluffy romance, where you just want to relax, sip your wine or tea, and get your mind off of the stresses off life, I recommend reading, The Switch Hitter!

Synopsis:

Dear Mister...**strike out** no, too formal. 
Hey there sweet cheeks *strike out* no, too forward. 

To whom it may concern, 
Full disclosure; before we move forward with this email, I would like it to be known that I have consumed an adequate amount of alcoholic beverages to intoxicate myself tonight. Three margaritas, two shots, and one beer—because it was free. 

I think it’s important to be open and honest with your co-workers, don’t you? 

So here I am, being honest. Drunk but honest. Or just drunk with lust? You decide. 

I like you so much it’s clouding my judgment and making me do things I never would sober. 
Like write this letter. 

I have a hopeless, foolish, schoolgirl crush on you when you are the last person on earth I should be falling for. Did you know people around the office call you a sadist? An egomaniac. An insensitive, arrogant prick. Your bark is worse then your bite, and you don’t scare me. The fact is, I’d love that bite of yours to nip at my bare skin while we’re both wearing nothing but sheets. 

For once I want you to look at me as more than one of your employees. 

And as long as we're being honest, that navy blue suit you wear? With the crisp white shirt? It really makes me want to loosen your tie and show you who’s boss. 

Love, 
Sincerely, 
Yours.

Review:

Eeeeeep!!!! I can't stop smiling!!! Love Sincerely Yours was one of the most fun, sexy and all-consuming reading escape of the year! It is definitely getting a spot on my "Best of 2018" list and I will without a doubt go back and reread this book many times. Peyton and Rome are a couple you do not want to miss! An automatic smile lingers on my lips every time I think of them and they have stolen a piece of my heart!

One email is about to turn Rome Blackburn's world upside down. As the CEO of Roam, Inc., he needs to follow his company rules and put an end to this story even before it begins. The only problem is that each email that he gets makes him want to know more about the employee that is secretly setting his world on fire. What will happen when he comes face-to-face with her?  

Oh my world!!! Peyton and Rome are irresistible!! Their banter is super addictive and their chemistry is incredibly sexy and hot! Be ready to have a few "Fans Face" moments and many LOL ones as well. Peyton is a sassy and confidence heroine that will make you cheer for her from the very beginning. Rome is a sexy, determined, dirty talking CEO that is about to embark on a fun and seductive journey that will turn his world upside down. Peyton and Rome had many memorable moments together, but my favorite ones are the email exchanges. It was so much fun reading them and seeing Peyton break the rules and Rome slowly letting his guard down and have some fun.

I can't say enough about this book and how this dynamic and fun writing duo gave me the most incredible reading journey! They deliver a good dose of vitamin fun and romance. Their writing style is fantastic I can't wait to read more from them. I loved all the secondary characters. I hope we get to see more from them. I'm super excited about Hunter's book. He was such a fun character to follow in LSY. I highly recommend this book if you are looking for your next unputdownable reading escape!

Rating:

I give, Love Sincerely Yours, by Sara Ney & Meghan Quinn, 5 fun, sexy, page-turning stars!

Born in New York and raised in Southern California, Meghan has grown into a sassy, peanut butter eating, blonde haired swearing, animal hoarding lady. She is known to bust out and dance if “It’s Raining Men” starts beating through the air and heaven forbid you get a margarita in her, protect your legs because they may be humped. 

Once she started commuting for an hour and twenty minutes every day to work for three years, she began to have conversations play in her head, real life, deep male voices and dainty lady coos kind of conversations. Perturbed and confused, she decided to either see a therapist about the hot and steamy voices running through her head or start writing them down. She decided to go with the cheaper option and started writing… enter her first novel, Caught Looking. 

Now you can find the spicy, most definitely on the border of lunacy, kind of crazy lady residing in Colorado with the love of her life and her five, furry four legged children, hiking a trail or hiding behind shelves at grocery stores, wondering what kind of lube the nervous stranger will bring home to his wife. Oh and she loves a good boob squeeze!
