Tome Thursday: The Irresistible Billionaire

 

Hello everyone!

 

Bet you didn't see this one coming.

 

Well, or you did and you're currently just shaking your head, smiling at your computer screens.

 

As you know - or if you don't, you're about to find out - I've been lucky enough to become a member of the Kiwi Birds ARC team, which is the team of people who get book copies from Serenity Woods in advance and then also leave reviews in advance so that others who are contemplating whether or not to buy the book might be persuaded.

 

Which means that I definitely end up with a new and exciting title to review on this blog every once in a while.

 

It's no different tonight either!

 

Despite venturing into cozy paranormal mysteries, Ms Woods remains one of the most beloved contemporary romance authors, and definitely my favourite either way you look at it.

So for her to announce a new contemporary series is a special treat.

And the introduction, The Irresistible Billionaire, is even better!

Tome Thursday: My Christmas Billionaire

Hello everyone!

Time really does fly when you're having fun. It seems like only yesterday that I started reading The Billionaire Kings by Serenity Woods, and yet somehow, we've reached the end.

Of course it may not REALLY be the end, as Ms Woods has indicated there might be a follow-up story, kind of like a wrap-up, to catch up with everyone in the King dynasty.

And it really IS a dynasty by this point, given how many of them there are and how they seem interconnected all over the place.

In the meantime though, we need to review the last of the actual books and love stories, because there's only two people left who remain single after all the others have found their happily ever afters.

What makes this particular book special is the fact that it takes place in Rovaniemi, Finland, which is an actual place up in the Arctic Circle. It's one of my bucket list destinations, because who DOESN'T want to go spy on Santa in his own village??

Ahem.

My Christmas Billionaire does just that.

Tome Thursday: My Wounded Billionaire

Hello everyone!

I'm BACK!

Book reviews are a thing again on this blog, though I do hope, as I hoped on Tuesday, that you've enjoyed my Booktober activity which I did last month. That does mean, however, that I'm a little bit behind on my reviews.

And by 'a little behind' I mean 'a lot behind', because I've already got a new ARC waiting for me to read it from this series, yet I haven't managed to get a proper review up for the fifth book!

Shame on me. Shame, shame, shame.

Anyway.

Considering that Serenity Woods is probably my favourite contemporary romance author (at least at the moment, but I don't see it changing any time soon) it should be a surprise to absolutely no one that I'm kicking off book reviews with another one of her books.

This time, we're headed back to the Ark, and to the King family.

Let's take a look at My Wounded Billionaire.

Tome Thursday: My Boss, the Billionaire

Hello everyone!

Here I am again with a second consecutive book review by the same author, and honestly I blame myself for loving these books so much.

Why wouldn't I want to share them with you?

Also, I saw two announcements today that both brought tears to my eyes, for different reasons, one being that Arrow will be ending with a 10-episode eighth season, which had me sniffling with sadness, and the other that Becoming the Supervet was published in paperback - a format I prefer - and I could finally grab a copy, which had me shedding some tears of joy!

I've been a fan of Professor Noel Fitzpatrick and his show The Supervet for a long time now, and being able to get just a glimpse of the back story which went on from day one up until today promises to be a magical experience.

But as of right now, I kind of need to get my billionaire shoes on again.

Remember last week, when we met Hal? Well, now it's time to meet Leon.

Ninja Turtles, move aside. My Boss, the Billionaire, is up, graciously given to me as an ARC by the author.

Tome Thursday: My Best Friend, the Billionaire

Hello everyone!

First off, it's almost March. Are you excited?

Strangely enough, even though I normally prefer colder months (for personal reasons), I'm feeling buoyant about the upcoming warmer climate, despite the fact that my sister and I had a conversation just yesterday about the old Hades and Persephone myth, its connection to seasons, and how we only have two prevalent ones left.

Like I told her: apparently, Persephone wants to spend more time with her hubster. Fine by me!

Back to the topic at hand, you can probably see very well which book I'm going to be reviewing tonight. The cover should tell you everything and more.

I was excited about this series from the moment the author announced it, namely because I was first introduced to her books through the prequels documenting the life and love of the fathers who gifted us with offspring that can take over the mantle now.

I'm making very little sense unless you've read the books yourself, but not worry, all shall be revealed!

So sit back and enjoy this tale about another hot Kiwi guy in My Best Friend, the Billionaire.

Tome Thursday: Casanova

Hello everyone!

No, this is not, in fact, a movie review, despite me knowing there's at least one or two floating around with the same title. But you can't really put a patent on a title now, can you? Which means there's bound to be different things going on under the same one!

And besides, Serenity Woods has the best titles, even if you've seen them elsewhere before.

With my helpful mug of tea at hand (it's cold outside today!) and the scent of cranberry rising in the air, I'm ready to dive right into this newest installment of her books.

Well, it's a stand-alone, obviously.

But it ties back to the first ever series I read from the author (read and loved, might I add, as I had to reread the trilogy soon after finishing this one!), and it's also a tie-in to the NEXT series she's going to be releasing, which I'd also be on the look out for if I were you.

Because what more could you possibly need than New Zealand, billionaires, New Zealand, happily ever after, and have I mentioned New Zealand yet?

As there's only a few days before the new trilogy starts its publishing race, let's get right down to Casanova.

Tome Thursday: Wishing on a Star

Hello everyone!

It'll be after Christmas when I write for this blog again, so I figured I'd pick an extra special Christmas story to write about in this one, because why else would I even put in the effort? Plus, considering I find it as amazing as the previous books that came before this short-short story, well, I couldn't resist.

If you haven't yet realized, I'm talking about another wonderful read from under the pen (or keyboard) of Serenity Woods.

I have to say that, as far as contemporary authors go, I may have found my absolute favourite in terms of realistic, down-to-Earth and drama-free characters, and pretty amazing storylines as far as everything goes!

The one I'm currently talking about, or will be as soon as I stop babbling in this intro (and keeping a gimlet eye on my Kobo e-reader at the same time) is Wishing on a Star, which is a special short story in the Three Wise Men universe, only available to Ms Woods' subscribers, but it's just too cute not to write about!

Tome Thursday: The Perfect Gift

Hello everyone!

It's time for yet another book blog, and as with the two previous ones, this is going to be a Christmas-oriented piece.

I'm feeling festive considering the fact that I've managed to finish my Christmas shopping earlier today so now all I have to do is wait for the day to arrive so that I can stick the parcels under the tree and watch my family's rections!

Whew.

I have to say, the shopping trip was far less painful than it used to be, but maybe that was because I had company, or maybe I'd finished half of it already so it was only a matter of hashing out some details? Possibly.

In any event, I digress, and terribly so.

The book I'm going to talk about is the one that first got me into reading more work from this particular author, and is titled The Perfect Gift, by Serenity Woods.
