Review & Release Blitz: Zaan (Sidewinders: Generations #1) by Kat Mizera

First love gets a second chance...
Zaan (Sidewinders: Generations) by Kat Mizera is available now!
First love gets a second chance...Norwegian-born professional hockey player Zaan Hagen has only ever loved two things: Hockey and Lexi. He never imagined he’d have to choose, until he was forced to let her go.

After beating breast cancer at sixteen, Lexi Rousseau vowed to live her life with no regrets. When her singing career took off with one of the hottest pop groups in the world, her dream came true— but it cost her the only man she ever loved.

When an unexpected turn of events brings them back together, Zaan and Lexi will have to learn to balance their demanding careers and irrefutable desires before history starts repeating itself. Have they finally figured out how to play the game without losing everything?

MY REVIEW
Zaan and Lexi were once a thing. But schedules, careers, and life got in the way and the parted ways. They never stopped loving each other, though, so when they're offered a second chance, it's inevitable that they'll grab it with both hands.

But is Lexi really in the right headspace yet to handle a relationship with Zaan? She's got a lot of baggage, and they've been down this road before...

I have to admit right off the bat that I did not like Lexi, at all. I never thought she loved Zaan as much as he loved her, nor did I think she was mature enough or selfless enough to devote herself to a relationship. If I had to guess, this relationship wouldn't last anymore than their first time around did, because Lexi did not seem to give it or Zaan, her all the way he gave her his whole heart. That's why 4 instead of 5 stars. But aside from Lexi, I liked this story. Zaan is a sweetheart, and the storyline and the hockey make for an entertaining read.

Review: One Little Lie by Whitney Barbetti

Review of One Little Lie by Whitney Barbetti ONE LITTLE LIE Hollis is a good girl with a crush on a broody musician. Unfortunately, that boy, Adam, hates her. Why? Because the chip on his shoulder leaves him thinking good girl, rich girl Hollis is a lemming like everyone else in their small town. Which makes it even more unfortunate when years after their high school encounter, Hollis' best friend tries to stick up for her and ends up telling her parents that Adam is the the boyfriend Hollis doesn't actually have. Oops. How will Hollis ever convince Adam to go along with her little lie? I really liked One Little Lie. Hollis is a really naive girl, but she has such a huge heart that I couldn't help but fall in love with her spirit. She's so sweet, so compassionate, the kind of person this world needs more of. Adam, on the other hand, eh, he didn't do much for me. His chip on the shoulder, broody asshole attitude did nothing to endear me to him, but because H...
