Release Blitz: A Taste of Love by Kyle Shoop

 




Title: A Taste of Love
Series: Senses of Love #3
Author: Kyle Shoop
Genre: Clean/Sweet Contemporary Romance
Release Date: September 23, 2020


BLURB

Dashing. Funny. Confident. Empathetic. 
Two different men share these traits. Which one will Nikki pick? 

Nikki had two goals in life: to become a famous wedding chef and to find love. She always felt that only one of these goals was realistic, while the other seemed like a dream influenced by her years of being a server at other people’s weddings in downtown New York City. But which goal would it be? Would it ever be her turn to wear the wedding dress? 

Nikki wasn’t just trying to find a husband, she was looking for love. Or, rather, she was interviewing to find it – on first dates, twice a week. At the same restaurant. At the same table. With the same rehearsed lines and questions. But with different men. After a year, she was a pro at first dates and judging which men were right for her: none. 

But then it happened. Nikki actually asked a guy out on a second date. Was she finally on the path to love? He was, after all, dashing, funny, confident, and empathetic – easily checking all of her boxes. 

But then it happened … again. This time by happenstance. A second date with a different guy. He, too, was dashing, funny, confident, and empathetic – but in a different way. Nikki was in trouble. That lofty goal of finding love had backfired. Now, she was in love with two different men. 

Love is the sweetest adventure. One with more ingredients than just check-boxes. But when faced with two different recipes for love, which one will Nikki choose? 

Experience the new book in the compelling “Senses of Love” romance anthology series. The books in the series may be read in any order.

Harrison
I loved Laney Landers before most people learned to read.
Blonde hair, blue eyes that rivaled the ocean, and an invisible halo over her head.
She stole my heart the same day she threw sand in my face.
What started as a friendship grew into so much more.
I thought she’d be my forever.
But then life threw me a curveball and I changed course.
Laney moved on and found a different happily ever after...
While I wallowed in grief and regret.
And now she’s here, reminding me that I made the biggest mistake of my life.

Laney 
I loved Harrison Montgomery since the first day he saved me a seat in kindergarten. 
He was my best friend, my own real-life prince.
He taught me to ride a bike and showed me how to shoot a three-pointer in basketball.
He was my first kiss.
My first love.
My first heartache.
My first everything.
I don’t believe in happily ever after anymore.
Harrison forced me to write a new ending to my story.
But seeing him again after all these years—it makes me want things I shouldn’t.
Because that chapter of my life is closed forever.
Or is it?

EXCERPT

His thumb kept tracing my lips until my mouth opened, and Franklin’s thumb was in my mouth. I closed my eyes as he triggered my need to suck. I sucked on his thumb like it was his dick, and I opened my eyes to see his face look like he was about to come.

“You have such a fuckable mouth, Haven,” Franklin groan. If you suck my dick as hard as you’re sucking on my thumb, I’d come so hard into your mouth, it’d make up for all those months we’ve been apart.” He groaned again. “God, I missed you.”

Book Review: Catching Fireflies by Sherryl Woods

                          For this review, I chose Catching Fireflies by Sherryl Woods.

I picked this ebook from the selection of Hoopla books.


Here is a brief description from Goodreads:
When bullying threatens to destroy a teen’s life, painful memories resurface for dedicated high school teacher Laura Reed and pediatrician J.C. Fullerton. With the support of the Sweet Magnolias, they bring the town together to ensure that a promising student’s future isn’t ruined. And to establish once and for all that bullying has no place in Serenity, South Carolina.

Both J.C.’s and Laura’s passion for the cause is deeply personal, and their growing feelings for each other are just as strong. But with so many secret hurts to overcome, can these two vulnerable lovers find the strength to believe in happily ever after?

This is my favorite out of the entire series so far. I love how beautifully this book was written. The way bullying was shown. I can’t wait to read the next book.  I’m a little sad I’m almost done with this series.  

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I give this book 5 out of 5 stars.

Book Review: Midnight Promises by Sherryl Woods

                       For this review, I chose Midnight Promises by Sherryl Woods.

I picked this ebook from the selection of Hoopla books.

Here is a brief description from Goodreads:
When Elliott Cruz first courted struggling single mom Karen Ames, it it was a romance worthy of any Sweet Magnolia fantasy. The sexy personal trainer made it his mission to restore Karen's strength—physical and emotional—and to charm her children.

Now, a few years into the marriage, colliding dreams threaten to tear a few years into the marriage, colliding dreams threaten to tear them them apart. Elliott's desire to finance the business opportunity of a lifetime with their hard-earned "baby money" stirs Karen's deep-rooted financial insecurities. It's the discovery that their brother-in-law is cheating on Elliott's sister—and thinks it's justified—that puts their irreconcilable differences into perspective. Will their own loving fidelity be a bond so strong they can triumph against all odds? (less)


 I loved how we got to see Karen and her husband worked through their differences. I hope the next book is about Elliot’s sister.  I can’t wait to read the next book in this series.

Book Review: Honeysuckle Summer by Sherryl Woods

                For this review, I chose Honeysuckle Summer by Sherryl Woods.

I picked this ebook from the selection of Hoopla books.

Here is a brief description from Goodreads:
Her devastating marriage behind her, Raylene Hammond is truly thankful for her best friends, the Sweet Magnolias. They’ve taken her in, shielding her from the world. Then she meets sheriff’s deputy Carter Rollins, and suddenly Raylene’s haven no longer feels quite so safe.

Carter understands why Raylene is trapped inside. He’s even taken to bringing the outside world to her. But with two kid sisters to raise, just how much time can he devote to this woman who’s stolen his heart?

Raylene knows Carter is a man worth loving, but she may never be strong enough to accept what he’s offering. How long can she ask him to wait? Maybe they’ll never have more than this one sweet summer (less)


Omg so sweet and romantic!  I loved Carter & Raylene.  Hope is a word I need to remember more everyday.  I think I need to have more faith in everything too. With hope & faith, life is sweeter.  I can’t wait to read the next book.

Book Review: Home in Carolina by Sherryl Woods

                     For this review, I chose Home in Carolina by Sherryl Woods.

I picked this ebook from the selection of Hoopla books.

Here is a brief description from Goodreads:
There's no place like home, especially if it's Serenity, South Carolina. For Annie Sullivan, though, the homecoming is bittersweet. She'd always envisioned a life there with her childhood best friend, Tyler Townsend. But Ty's betrayal has cost her the family and the future they'd once planned.
For Ty, losing Annie was heartbreaking. Still, he can't imagine life without the three-year-old son whose mother left him for Ty to raise. Ty wants it all--Annie, his child and the future he'd dreamed about--and he's back home in Serenity to fight for it. But getting Annie to forgive and forget may be the hardest challenge he's ever faced. With the stakes so high, this is one game he can't afford to lose.


Wow! Finally Annie and Ty’s story.  I love the other books hinted to something that happened between the two of them but as a reader didn’t know until this book.  I can’t wait to read Sarah’s book and Raylene’s. 

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I give this book 5 out of 5 stars.
