Review / Release Blitz: There's Something About Molly (Mommy Wars #2) by Christina Hovland


There's Something About Molly by
Christina Hovland is now live!


Keeping it together. Barely.

Molly Princeton hasn't met the right guy. Yes, she's a dating coach. But she's also a single mom with a rocky relationship history. She may be able to help others find love, but she doesn't really need it in her life. Happiness doesn't require falling in love. Winning a matchmaker competition however requires being part of a couple. And darn it, she needs to win this one. That's when she sets her sights on Gavin Frank—the one man she would absolutely never fall in love with.

Gavin is her nemesis, her best friend's ex, and yeah, okay, he's sexy as sin. He's also off limits. But she's out of other options. Plus Gavin could use a fake relationship to keep his meddling mother from setting up blind dates with every available woman in the Mile High City. There's no way he'd fall for Molly. None. Nada.

The two quickly learn there's a thin line between hate and love, and she finds herself tipping onto the wrong side. For the first time, she doesn't have all the answers. What the heck is she supposed to do next? Lucky for her, Gavin realizes there's something about Molly he can't resist...




MY REVIEW
Molly's a single mom, a dating coach, and she's about to embark on a fake relationship with her bestie's ex, the ex she can't stand because he really didn't step up the way he should have. But now that she's spending more time with Gavin, she's starting to see the man he's become, and she likes him (perhaps more). What does a dating coach do when fake dating starts feeling very real?

I remember thinking what a douche Gavin was while reading his ex, Rachel's story (Rachel, Out of Office), but let me tell you, he more than redeems himself here in There's Something About Molly. His character growth from then to here in his own story, is tremendous. Here, he's downright swoon-worthy, and I fell in love with him. Molly was the one I didn't connect with very much, as her character was annoying most of the time, with her massive insecurities, and being in her head way too much. Still, the story itself is great - fun, sweet, entertaining, and Gavin is the swooniest bbf I've read in quite awhile. This series is setting itself up to be a great rom-com series with more than its fair share of heart.

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...
