RoomHate by Penelope Ward
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
It thought it was a good story and heartfelt. The scenes between them were sweet and I loved the relationship between Justin and Bea. It seemed that there was more to the main character and possible neurotic tendencies, I wonder about that but it wasn't explored. Sexy male character and I read it in a day! Very good!

Book Review
The Baller: A Down and Dirty Football Novel by Vi Keeland
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
The cover alone is drool worthy and the writing is great. She pulled me in and the humor, and sexy appeal of the male character kept me reading all day, and I finished in one day (not abnormal for me, though). It is funny, hot, and sweet. It had a good premise. It was written in 1st person with multiple POV. At first, it was hard to remember who was talking, but I got the hang of it quick enough. It kept me guessing up to the end what would happen between the two main characters.
She created depth in each character, and it made me want to keep reading. The only issue I see was why the Willow character was giving her own chapters with her own POV, because beyond inserting herself between the relationship, I'm not sure the reason.
I look forward to reading more from Vi Keeland and can't wait for Stuck-Up Suit which I already pre-ordered.

Reviews of THE SWALLOW
Advanced Reader's comments:
"While Isabelle Joshua is a new author to me, The Swallow, was a delightful, refreshing and passionate novel, which weaved us through spy intrigue, lies, deceit, and intimacy of immediate and lasting love with unexpected twists. Isabelle has a real gift to encourage the reader to continue reading with vivid descriptions of places, physical appearances, and feelings of sorrow, frustrations, and deep love. This is quite an achievement for a new author and one who I will be following in the future."
"I loved the story and the characters. You had me swooning over Alex and sympathizing with Kathryn. It was an exciting story and you pulled me in right away.... It was a thrilling rollercoaster ride - a great balance of thrills, humor, romance, and drama. I can't believe this is your first novel! There were times I was like, 'oh wait, I'm reading Isabelle's story and not a book I downloaded from Amazon!"
"I thought this was a great book. Nice, quick read. I enjoyed the characters and the way the author told a very interesting love story mixed with intrigue. Very good read and I recommend it." See Goodreads Review.
"I really liked it! I thought your dialogue was especially good (very witty and fun). And what's more is I wanted to know what happened next."
"Suspenseful, intriguing love story."
"Loved it." and gave five stars on Goodreads.
"Just finished it and loved it."

My Bio:
Isabelle Joshua started writing because she couldn't get to sleep one night and her mind was stuck on an idea. She spent all nights writing the first scene in her head and continued. Through the encouragement of friends and family, she wrote her first novel in three weeks while in law school. She is a mother of five children and has been married for over 12 years. She lives in Texas and enjoys her air conditioner while sitting in front of her laptop creating stories, researching ideas, or getting sidetracked by funny videos.
She loves romance and interesting characters. She's been an avid reader since childhood. Her characters are witty and complex, they love intensely, and most of the time steam up the windows with their heat. She loves a good story that captures a reader and doesn't let go. She hopes to create stories that capture her readers as well.
