Another month is in the books, folks. 2019 can you please slow down a bit? March started off a bit rocky reading wise. I couldn't find anything to make me want to read. However an author who's books always cheer me up R.L. Mathewson released a new book this month (still need to buy it and read it). I found some short stories of hers I haven't read. They were what I needed. I managed to read 11 books in March!! My highest number of books in a month so far in 2019.
Here are the books:
1. Yard Sale by R.L. Mathewson 5/5 stars
2. A Bradford Halloween by R.L. Mathewson 5/5 stars
3. A Bradford Holiday Meeting by R.L. Mathewson 5/5 stars
4. Your Love Is Mine by Bella Andre 5/5 stars
I have a review posted for this one.
5. Christmas From Hell by R.L. Mathewson
5/5 stars
6. House of Salt and Sorrows by Erin A. Craig 4/5 stars
I received an ebook ARC from NetGalley. This book was slow in parts and I almost DNF it a few times. But I stayed until the end. It is set to be released in August. Look for my review then.
7. Pete the Cat and the Treasure Map by James Dean 4/5 stars
8. I Dare You by Shantel Tessier 5/5 stars
I have a review posted for this one too!
9. Fire and Brimstone by R.L. Mathewson 5/6 stars
10. Get Lucky by Madison Faye 5/5 stars
11. The Book Thief by Markus Zusak 5/5 stars
This was a reread for me. This book is heartbreaking beautiful.
That's a wrap on March' s reading!
Happy Reading, Ashley

Page Amount: 96 Kindle Edition

"Meg Ashworth has always lived her life by the book, until she finally breaks away from her family’s strict rules to be a wedding designer at Married in Malibu. But she never expected that part of her job description would mean working day — and night — with one of the biggest rock stars on the planet.
Lucas Crosby desperately needs Meg’s help to create a music video for his new single. She is so brilliant and beautiful that instead of hiring a model or actress to play the part of his true love in the video…he wants Meg! When their deep spark of connection grows far beyond their pretend relationship onscreen, can he convince her to take a chance on loving him in real life? "

My Review:
This was one crazy ride. Right from the start you are thrown into a world of madness. I thought I knew how it was going to end and was totally wrong. I got T.M. Frazier vibes throughout the whole book. I am so glad to have read this book and looking forward to I Promise You next month.
If you enjoy a crazy ride and being kept on your toes then pick up I Dare You.... I dare you too!

Your Love Is Mine by Bella Andre
Released: March 13th 2019 (expected release date)
Publisher: Oak Press
Series: Maine Sullvians, Book One
Page Amount: 198 Nook Edition
Source: Publisher
"Flynn Stewart, an award-winning screenwriter, seems to have the perfect Hollywood life. Until his dark past comes crashing back when he learns his long-lost sister has passed away--and he has a six-month-old niece named Ruby. Flynn vows to give the little girl who now means everything to him a better childhood than he or his sister ever had. So when he finds out that Ruby's nanny is trying to sell their story to the press, he takes his niece as far from Hollywood as he can.
One of seven siblings in Bar Harbor, Cassie Sullivan has always been grateful for the love and support of her tight-knit family. Because of them, she had the courage to create a successful candy confection business. So when a friend of her cousin needs a place to stay with his baby for a few weeks, she's happy to offer him her cabin in the woods. But from the first moment she meets Flynn and Ruby, her heart is lost to the gorgeous man and his adorable little girl.
Flynn has never met anyone as cheerful and open as Cassie. Instantly drawn to her, he finds himself telling her things about his past that he's never spoken of to anyone--things that make him certain he could never be worthy of her. Only, Cassie isn't about to let the pair who have stolen her heart go without a fight--using all the light, love, and laughter she can give them. Will the nightmares from Flynn's past continue to haunt him and and steal away the joy of a future with Cassie? Or will Cassie's love, and the support of her big family, be powerful enough to help him face his long-buried demons and conquer them at last?"
YOUR LOVE IS MINE is part of Bella Andre's New York Times and USA Today #1 bestselling series about The Sullivans. While it can easily be read as a stand-alone story, you'll likely enjoy reading the other books, too.
-Information from Goodreads.com
My Review:
You know you've read a wonderful story when you can't stop smiling afterwards. This is such a great start to another Sullivan family series.
I'm glad I was lucky enough to receive a ebook ARC exchange for an honest review. Cassie,Flynn and Ruby's story so touching and filled with heartwarming moments.
I cannot wait for more Sullivan love stories down the road!
5/5 stars
