My Thoughts –

I’m reviewing Meeting Trouble and Rock Me: Wicked. There are a lot of books in this set, some I really enjoyed and some didn’t like at all. Too many to review, so here are 2 I liked a lot!!

Meeting Trouble by Emme Rollins

3/5 stars

I thought this was a cute, whirlwind of a romance. Their initial meeting was hilarious and the sparks that ensued between Sabrina and Rob were scorching! I didn’t fancy the ending, which really just kind of ended with no conclusion to the story. I think the characters are awesome and I like that there’s no confusion about each other’s feelings. They are straight up and forward about their pasts and present.

Rock Me: Wickd by Arabella Quinn

3/5 stars

Lena and Alex are a combustible, wicked hot pair. They were good friends in college and lost touch after time. After a certain dorm room incident, they never really got over their feeling, secret though they be, for each other. I enjoyed this couple, along with their flashbacks from college. I also enjoyed the other characters in this quick reading novella. Melissa and Tommy hit ti off right away and I look forward to reading about Tyler’s story in the future.
