The Trade – An RNAA Recommended Read

Romance Novel Addicts Anonymous Book Recommendation by:  Linda Fausnet

Genre: Sports Romance/Baseball Romance

My Thoughts on the Book: One of the best books I’ve read in a long time. Major league baseball player Cory Potter isn’t just a handsome jock, but he’s a fully developed, multi-dimensional guy. Natalie is a strong, smart woman who refuses to let men walk all over her. Their relationship is intense and passionate, which made for a page-turning read. I am a huge baseball fan but you don’t have to be to enjoy this sexy, heartwarming sports romance.

This Can’t Wait by Luke P. Narlee – A Romance Novel Addicts Anonymous Recommended Read

Romance Novel Addicts Anonymous Book Recommendation by: Olga GOA

Genre: Romance Short Stories

My Thoughts on This Book: I never read such unique, realistic and various collection of romantic short stories! Each story was different from another one and caught my attention. My favourite stories are The Moment, The Perfect Date, Show and Tell, Recess and Carrie Sue. I so enjoyed reading The Perfect Day among others maybe because I am a romantic person and believe in such dates. I would like to have such a date in my life. Carrie Sue showed the true relationships and feelings what every woman feels when experience doubt about love of her husband. I liked it. Recess impressed me in a special way: this story was telling about love among children. This is why I felt so pleasant reading it.
Thank you for this book, it gave me so many positive emotions.
I just wonder only about one thing: are these stories real or fiction? They sounded so close to the reality.

The Lifted Veil by Phoebe Killingsworth – a Romance Novel Addicts Anonymous Recommended Read

Romance Novel Addicts Anonymous Book Recommendation by: Olga Goa

Title: The Netherworld Chronicles Vol 1: The Lifted Veil

Author: Phoebe Killingsworth

Genre: Dark Paranormal Romance

My Thoughts on this Book:

When I started reading this story I couldn’t put it down. It surprised me and conquered me without a doubt. All characters- major or minor- impressed me in full. They are well written as well described, so passionate and colorful. It is like you watch the movie in a big action genre and cannot stop. 

🎥

The story as dark as night itself and it captivates you. A calmly living girl Morgan finds out that she is not a mortal girl and her parents are not real parents at all. And the dreadful thing is, her REAL parents are non mortal as well and dead. What a sad twist, right? This story goes with so many unexpected turns that you cannot stop being in awe and horror because of the darkness that soaked the plot. You can find here as many bad boys as you want, sexy and dangerous. But some of them are so horrible like Chance that better not following him and like him doesn’t matter how beautiful he looks. He is a true bast*rd, cruel and vengefully evil. I can say, he is the devil in this story and nothing more. Fallon is opposite has a heart and some kindness but he is also has no mercy for enemies and killing. Mykah is the same as Fallon, a loyal soldier to his master and King Devon who seems really kind at first sight for Morgan but Netherland Kingdom doesn’t let innocence get in and live there. It dies there and it is not good. Devon shows Morgan what his kingdom is. This is so sad and pity because Morgan has to live there being prisoned, without her great friend Carmen who has a secret of her birth as much as Morgan.
This story surrounded by secrets as passion and love rules it despite of how many awful things happen in it.
I cannot wait to read the sequel! I am not against cliffhanger ends in books, they just make you so excited and emotional. Thumbs up if you agree!
Great job. I so loved this story. 

💞

 Maybe a reason is how I like dark romance books also won me! Thank you.

I’ve spent years running from a dangerous past, only to have the wounds I’ve worked so hard to conceal split open because of Zane. I hated that I fell for my best friend’s sexy older brother. But I did. Now, more than ever, I fear my past is catching up with me. And I refuse to drag Zane into it. 

But my heart and body have other plans.

Even if my head is telling me to run. 

ZANE

I knew Stevie was too good for me. I was damaged. I didn’t deserve someone like her, even if she did have a dark past. But I couldn’t get thoughts of her crimson lips and what they would feel like against mine out of my head. 

So, I did the one thing I told myself I wouldn’t do. I fell for my little sister’s best friend.

I just hope I’m not too late.

My Review

This is an unusual tale full of twists and turns involving a sexy and clever magician, his lovely magician’s assistant and soulmate, a family curse, and a jealous romantic rival hell-bent on revenge. Stephen Dagmar, or The Great Dagmaru, is no ordinary parlor-trick magician. On the contrary, his magic is real, as is his love and passion for Herman.

The Secret of a Kiss – A Romance Novel Addicts Anonymous Recommended Read

Genre: Sweet Romance

Synopsis:

A lonely stretch of highway, a handsome stranger, and a long-kept secret that could wreck everything.

Linden Adair is a talented makeup artist on the New York Broadway show, Phantom of the Opera, creating the hideous scar for the actor who plays the phantom every night. But nobody knows the deep scars Linden carries after the divorce from her husband, Mark Denly—who is the famous director of Phantom.

Desperate to get away, Linden takes a cross-country trip to visit her best friend in Seattle. While driving on a deserted stretch of highway late at night, she hits a deer and crashes the rental car into a gully outside of Snow Valley, Montana.

A devastatingly handsome stranger with a tow truck rescues Linden and her smashed vehicle, but when she catches sight of him in the light, she’s shocked. Anton Baldwin possesses a terrible scar on his face—just like the phantom she created every night at the theater.

But Anton is hiding more than the truth behind his scar, and during a whirlwind week while being recruited for a television show being filmed in Snow Valley, the secrets of this enigmatic man turn her world upside down. Does he hold the magic she needs to heal the scars on her broken heart?

If you like sweet romance and second chance love stories, then you’ll love THE SECRET OF A KISS, A Snow Valley Romance.

My Thoughts : 

This is a highly engaging big city to small town sweet romance. I was drawn to this book because I am a big Broadway fan, and the heroine does the makeup for The Phantom of the Opera. I enjoyed this book immensely and especially liked the attraction and sensual tension between the two romantic leads. It’s been my experience that sweet romance books can be a little too sweet for my tastes, but that was not the case with this book. This book most certainly qualifies as a clean romance, but it did a nice job of developing the attraction and the love between the main characters. I found this to be a quick and enjoyable romantic read.

Highland Redemption – A Romance Novel Addicts Anonymous Recommended Read


Genre: Medieval Romance

Synopsis:

While spying for Clan Cameron, Brodie Cameron rescues a lass, only to realize it’s Skye—the woman who’d broken his heart. He needs to get her to her uncle as quickly as possible to keep her safe, but every minute he’s distracted from his mission brings the clans that much closer to war. And having beautiful Skye anywhere near him is dangerous, because the price on his head is higher than the one on hers.

Upon being rescued from kidnappers, Skye finds herself staring into the eyes of the man she once loved—Brodie Cameron. She’s grateful to be freed, but has no idea how she’ll resist the lad who has become a braw man. Especially because she’s promised to another, in a political marriage forged to strengthen the Royalist clans against the Covenanters who plot to turn Scotland upside down.

Each book in the Highland Pride series is a STANDALONE story that can be enjoyed out of order.

My Review: This story has excitement, romance, and drama in the form of a war between clans. The hero, Brodie Cameron, is strong and brave, as is his love interest, Skye. The book has the perfect amount of steamy sensuality and a terrific HEA. This is the second book in the series, but it works fine as a standalone.

The Magician’s Curse – Romance Novel Addicts Anonymous Recommended Read

This was a gripping read with truly engaging characters. This book is an excellent mix of romance and intrigue, and is a nice change of pace from so many cookie-cutter romances. Stephen Dagmur is a compelling and somewhat tortured hero, and the heroine is innocent but strong and resilient. An excellent start to a new series and doesn’t end on a cliffhanger. I look forward to more from this author. You can get the book at AMAZON.
