BLURB
Join the hunt for love in this hot and hilarious rom-com with a black cat heroine, cinnamon roll hero, and all the pumpkin spice fall reading vibes! Perfect for fans of Tessa Bailey, Ali Hazelwood, and Emily Henry.

Reeve Donovan is Hollywood’s hottest, most charmingly-stubborn director… and the last man I expected to find strolling down Main Street in my sleepy Blue Ridge hometown. Especially since last time I saw him, I was wearing (half) a slutty super-spy costume, and he was facedown in an Indiana Jones outfit, searching for my… buried treasure.

With his tongue.

Ahem.

It turns out, my steamy Halloween hookup wants to find the location of my Great-Grandpa Earl’s missing gold… along with everyone else. The Fortune family’s wayward fortune is the stuff of legends, but I always figured it was just that: fiction. Until Reeve and I stumble on a clue that jump-starts our quest… and makes us unlikely partners in our hunt for the gold.

Soon, we’re swept up in a wild race for the treasure, jostling with a reality TV crew, grumpy historians, and my idiot of an ex-husband (don’t ask). I’ve been burned in love before, and have zero intention of falling for this arrogant charmer… Except Reeve has other plans.

He wants me. I want the gold. And my burning loins want… another go-around with Indy’s whip. We’re both used to getting our own way, so what happens when that way leads straight to the bedroom? And can we outwit the other treasure hunters to claim the ultimate prize?

Find out in the hot and hilarious new romance from Lila Monroe!

MY REVIEW


When Ivy steps out of her comfort zone for Halloween and dons a sultry Lola persona, she meets a gorgeous, swashbuckling Indiana Jones lookalike and has the most exciting encounter of her life. Come morning, though, she's gone, knowing she'll have a memory to hold onto. She knew she'd never see him again, so why does her new neighbor look suspiciously a lot like him? And why does he not seem to recognize her? Talk about a blow to the self esteem. But then he does recognize her and suddenly their connection seems even more sizzling than it was that night. Now Ivy and Reeve are taking on her family legend, determined to find the gold everyone, especially her douchenozzle ex husband, want to find. Along the way they just may find themselves in much more than a temporary fling.

Reeve didn't know what hit him when a woman straight out of his dreams approached him on the street to give him back his whip, no, not that kind, the kind from his Halloween costume, then proceeded to enchant him in every way. When he woke up, though, she was gone, and he's never gotten Lola out of his mind. Even when his new neighbor appears before him and he doesn't recognize her, he's still thinking about Lola. But now his mind has cleared and Lola's eyes appear in Ivy's face and he's smitten all over again. Now he's in a race with her to find her great uncle's fortune, before her douchey ex does, and to convince Ivy that they're more than just some fling.

I love The Treasure Hunt Hookup. Reeve and Ivy are the cutest, hottest couple to land on my Kindle in a long time. Reeve, though he's grumpy around others, when his dream woman comes into his life, she lightens him up and suddenly he's smiling, and happy, and so in love. I don't think I could have swooned any harder than I did as I read as Ivy and Reeve fell in love.

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...
