Four Letter Word, Hit the Spot and Bad For You by J. Daniels

I received the book Down Too Deep, Book 4 in this series, for review through Hachette Canada. On the last page of that book, it’s mentioned that it’s part of a series. I immediately went online and looked it up and proceeded to order books 1-3 and now here we are with another review. Lol. I love these types of series, where the author builds a world of characters and each book is dedicated to either an individual character or in this case a couple. That way throughout each book, you’re still living within the same world and you’re getting updates on the lives of all the other characters you’ve invested in. I think this explains my lifelong need to constantly have an epilogue in all things fictional.

I flew through these books, staying up far too late and basically only work and walking my dog were things that made me put them down. The yawning and sandpaper eyes were totally worth it and I would do it again in a minute.

Four Letter Word is Book 1 and Brian and Sydney’s story. Sydney calls up her friends recent Ex to give him all kinds of drama, only to call the wrong number by 1, can you guess who was on the otherside of that call? You guessed it, Brian is the lucky recipient of the crap pile Sydney throws down … and the meet cute has begun. Out of all four of these books, this one was my least favourite. Some of the secrets, the drama, just wasn’t something I connected on as much as in the other books. It was also the introduction to all of the characters, so it maybe started a little slower then I’d like. Brian and Sydney are both dragging some heavy baggage, will they survive together? Or end up apart? I give this book 3 ½ stars ⭐️

Hit the Spot, book 2, is Jamie and Tori’s story. Now this one is more of the classic type romance that I really enjoy. Guy sees girl, guy likes girl, guy pisses girl off but continues to pursue slowly and subtly anyways. I’m not sure why the love/hate romances always end up being some of my favourites? My first thought is those characters tend to have more sarcasm, more sass and a stronger attitude generally in life. I like a character that can make me both laugh and cry in a book, Tori, our female lead, she gives that and more in this one. Tori, is Sydney’s BFF with the Ex in book one. I give this book 4 stars ⭐️

Bad for you, book 3, in this book you’re going to be all about Shayla and Sean, or Stitch as he’s known throughout the series. Another classic type of romance story, I mean you even see hints of it in Beauty and the Beast, it’s the one where the guy doesn’t feel like he’s good enough for the girl. Our Sean has made some mistakes you see, has quite the past he’s trying to move on from, and he doesn’t think his dark has any right to touch Shaylas light. Sean has squashed down any possibilities that he and Shayla had, at least until Shayla ends up in tears in her car. All of the sudden Sean has offered to help and the will they won’t they is back on the table. Out of all 4, this one was my favourite. I give this book 4 ½ stars ⭐️

I really loved this series. I’m incredibly glad to have added it to my shelf and I’m sure I will be going back to reread more then once in the future. Im grateful to Hachette for the opportunity to review Down Too Deep, cause who knows if I would’ve ever found this series otherwise. I give this series overall 4 stars ⭐️

Spoiler Free Review of

Repeat by Kylie Scott

Well, I liked this book don’t get me wrong, but when you compare it to her other books I’ve read it’s … lacking a little something. There are parts to this book that just seem a little abrupt. For example, in the very first scene of the book our main character Clementine has already been attacked, lost her memory and is confronting her ex boyfriend. We don’t get very much information at all about how and why she was attacked and when we do get info, it’s brushed over very quickly. Which considering it’s a large part of the story act I found it disappointing.

The concept of the story is one we’ve seen before and I’m sure we will see again in the romance drama. There are only so many ways to spin a romance and with thousands of romance books out there it’s bound to happen. The author Kylie Scott brought her own spins too the story tho, I do love a good book nerd lead character, but details seemed rushed throughout the book.

I liked both main characters in this book. Clementine who’s forced to play detective for her own life, and feels disconnected with the people that are supposed to be closest to her. Ed, who had his heart brutally stomped on, yet still has enough feelings for Clem to help her figure her life in the new day to day out. Plus, let’s not forget Gordy … the sweet little dog and Clem’s interactions always brought a smile to my face.

Generally speaking I enjoyed the book, and don’t regret reading it, but it isn’t my favourite of the authors work as a whole.

I give this book 3 stars ⭐️
