Review: One Week to Claim It All

One Week to Claim It All by Adriana Herrera
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

At the very last possible moment, Esmeralda Sambrano-Pena accepts the top position in her father's media empire. However, not everyone is sure about her assuming the CEO position, particularly Rodrigo Almanzar. He trained under her father and feels it is time he gets to run the company himself. Therefore, the competition begins and each is determined to end up on top. But Rodrigo and Esmeralda have a past and their attraction is interfering with their plans.
First off, once again, I am blown away by a Harlequin cover. It is so beautiful. Second, Adriana Herrera writes a hot scene. The chemistry between them is hot and intense and you get why they can't keep their hands off each other.
The enemies to lovers and rekindled romance tropes are in effect and I think readers will enjoy the first book in a new series. All I can say I look forward to reading.
Thank you #harlequin

Review: The Summer of No Attachments

The Summer of No Attachments by Lori Foster
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Local vet, Ivey Anders has ended her relationship and heads into the summer determined not to get involved with anyone. She doesn't need anything that is going to complicate her life. Then she meets Corbin Meyer and his son, Justin, and her plan goes awry.

Hope Mage, Ivey's assistant, has suffered a devastating trauma which makes her fearful to move forward. She is scared to trust and open her heart. But then Corbin's brother, Lang, coming into the picture and he is patient and so understanding that she finds herself beginning to open up in ways she never imagined.

Lori Foster wrote a summer read that I think many will find a nice surprise and a sweet read. It was filled with so many serious themes but the strong relationship between the two couples made it a heartwarming read. I enjoyed seeing a different kind of heroine - bold, spoke her mind and upfront with her feelings. I loved the strong sense of family and how strong the bond was. Justin's storyline resonated with me.

I especially loved the sisterhood and friendship between Ivey and Hope. This story should the the healing power that time and the right person brings. Hope and Lang's story warmed my heart. I look forward to reading more from this author and recommend this read.
THank you #Netgalley
