My God, I can’t believe it! Another cliffhanger at the end of the story. I wish the author had some mercy, but apparently the author is a wicked witch who did nothing but hook me up with her story. I feel as if I was enchanted with an awful spell that does not allow me to put this book down until I’ve devoured every single pages of it til the end. Everyone is miserable, confused and angry in this book, but it didn’t turn me off like other books would have.

Quite a torture to read, but I guess when it comes to reading such an exciting story, I can be quite a sadist.

I wish there’s more in this book. I wish there’s happily ever after for all the miserable and tortured Gods and Goddess in this story… but I don’t think it’s going to happen anytime soon until the next installment of the series.

Nevertheless, I enjoyed reading this book. It’s kinda refreshing. I rate this book 4 out 5 stars, and can’t wait for the next book.

I received an ARC of this book from Harlequin Publisher via Netgalley. I was not required to write a positive review for this book.

The heroine of this story have issues. Trust issues. I think I could relate to the heroine in this story. It is really hard to trust again when the one that you loved betrayed you and humiliate you in the worst way possible. Many would say that the heroine of this story is a stubborn fool for having fears of trusting, but I won’t exactly say that. When you’re hurt by the man that you trusted most and the man that you hoped to protect you from all worldly harm, you’ll do the same thing, you’ll build a wall, a fortress all around you so that you won’t ever get hurt again.It is not easy to trust again, even if you have forgiven their fault.

This book is really close to home, and at some point, I found myself nearly crying, for I could feel the heroine’s pain and distrust.

This book is a very inspirational read. If you ever feel heartbroken and feels as if you couldn’t trust anyone ever again, let this book remind you that even if the whole world has hurt you beyond healing, He is always faithful and by trusting God, you shall heal… in time.

I rate this book 4 out of 5 stars. I received an ARC of this book from thomas Nelson Publisher via Netgalley. I was not required to write a positive review for this book.

Book description:

When a wedding reenactment turns real, this cowgirl suddenly finds she’s an accidental bride. Shay Brandenberger is raising her daughter in Moose Creek, Montana on her childhood ranch, nestled against the Yellowstone River. Despite her hard work, she can’t seem to keep her head above water—and now the bank is threatening to foreclose. She prays for a miracle, but the answer she receives is anything but. Having agreed to play the bride in the Founders Day wedding reenactment, Shay is mortified to be greeted at the end of the aisle by none other than Travis McCoy, her high school sweetheart—the man who left her high and dry for fame and fortune on the Texas rodeo circuit. Then the unthinkable happens. Thanks to a well-meaning busy body and an absent minded preacher, the wedding reenactment results in a legal marriage. But before Shay can say annulment, Travis comes up with a crazy proposal. If she refuses his offer, she’ll lose her home. But if she accepts, she may lose her heart. Shay isn’t sure if the recent events are God’s will or just a preacher’s blunder. Will trusting her heart to the man who once shattered it be the worst mistake of her life? Or could their marriage be the best accident that ever happened?

I never liked chic-lit. They make me fall asleep, and my friends are definitely suprised when they discovered that I actually read chic-lit books. I was amused…but yes, I do read chic lit, especially Sophie Kinsella’s work whenever I feel stressed up or feels as if the world is crumbling beneath my feet.

Yups, Sophie Kindella’s work is usually the perfect medicine to de-stress; because of the predicament that she usually puts her herione in. Life… can’t get more worst than those situations her heroines are in.

Their life are usually perfectly happy and oblivious towards their problems until they are thrown into a mess and I usually find it amusing on how her heroines perserves throughout the entire ordeal.

I find this work of hers, ‘I’ve Got Your Number’ is not only funny, but I find it ironic and inspirational as well. A good read. I don’t always like Ms. Kinsella’s work, but this one is going to be one of my favourite besides ‘Twenties Girl’.

Would be a perfect and lovely read for the upcoming Valentine’s day. Heartwarming, funny, hillarious…it’s really a charming read. This is the kind of book you wouldn’t mind bringing with you when you’re relaxing in the bathtub, or leisuring by the poolside on a lazy summer day.

I highly recommend this book if you’re feeling down and in need of some heartwarming feelings, or when you feel that nothing in your world has gone right. This book…will embrace you with it’s warmth.

I rate this book 4 out of 5 stars. I received an ARC of this book from Random House Publishing Group via Netgalley. i was not required to write a positive review for this book, and I was not compensated in any ways for writing this review.

I’ve lost it. 🙁 The only thing in the world I wasn’t supposed to lose. My engagement ring. It’s been in Magnus’s family for three generations. And now the very same day his parents are coming, I’ve lost it. The very same day! Do not hyperventilate, Poppy. Stay positive 🙂 !!

Poppy Wyatt has never felt luckier. She is about to marry her ideal man, Magnus Tavish, but in one afternoon her “happily ever after” begins to fall apart. Not only has she lost her engagement ring in a hotel fire drill but in the panic that follows, her phone is stolen. As she paces shakily around the lobby, she spots an abandoned phone in a trash can. Finders keepers! Now she can leave a number for the hotel to contact her when they find her ring. Perfect!

Well, perfect except that the phone’s owner, businessman Sam Roxton, doesn’t agree. He wants his phone back and doesn’t appreciate Poppy reading his messages and wading into his personal life.

What ensues is a hilarious and unpredictable turn of events as Poppy and Sam increasingly upend each other’s lives through emails and text messages. As Poppy juggles wedding preparations, mysterious phone calls, and hiding her left hand from Magnus and his parents . . . she soon realizes that she is in for the biggest surprise of her life.
