It’s that time of year again! Can you believe we’re already half-way through 2017?! And so, naturally, this week’s topic from the girls at The Broke and the Bookish is Best Books in 2017 so far. I’m limiting myself to new releases for this post, so in order of release, here are my Top Ten Picks for the first half of 2017:
~ About the Book ~ She’s trying to uproot the past. He’s trying to safeguard the future. But neither’s ready for the assignment about to jeopardize both. Landing a prominent chair in the Philharmonic Orchestra is part of Bree Ramirez’s determined plans to avoid her old life. Falling smack into her ex-fiancé’s path again? Nowhere close. But with a gang hit targeting her and her brother as loose ends, the pressure to get them out of Queens ushers her straight into the very arms she’s spent the last four years pretending aren’t still home.
Here in the southern hemisphere, summer is just a distant dream, so this week’s Top Ten Tuesday topic with the girls from The Broke and the Bookish is the closest I’m going to get for a while.

This week’s Top Ten Tuesday topic, thanks to the girls at The Broke and The Bookish, is a Read In One Sitting theme. Gone are the days when I could read a book in one sitting! Reading a book in one day still happens occasionally (particularly if it’s a novella), although it’s usually more like 2-3 days, depending on what’s been happening on those days.

It’s First Line Friday time again, and I have been dying to share this book with you. It releases on 8 February, and I reviewed it right here yesterday! It’s Begin Again, by Crystal Walton, and I just have to say, if you love banter, you’re going to love Ti and Drew. And I’m going to physically restrain myself now before I launch into a total rehash of my review! I also have some super good news: It’s currently available for pre-order for just $0.99 on Kindle. How good is that? Too good to pass up, I’d say! 😉 Okay,
Publisher’s Description: What happens when a free-spirited artist from big-city New York collides with an uptight business owner from small-town Ocracoke? Fireworks. The kind neither saw coming. A single call is all it takes to drive artist Ti Russo into what she does best. Run. But hey, lying low in a beach town for a while isn’t so bad.
