Review / Release Blitz: The One I Didn't See Coming (Plain Daisy Ranch #3) by Piper Rayne


The One I Didn't See Coming by Piper Rayne is now live!

It’s the classic story—girl returns to her hometown only to end up moving in with her high school crush, who she hates.

Returning to Willowbrook was my only option after Chicago chewed me up and spit me out. Technically, it wasn’t Chicago’s fault. It was his fault—the man I thought I knew who turned out to be a liar.

My older sister, always the one to swoop in and fix things, secured me a job as a yoga instructor on her fiancé’s family ranch. As my self-assigned protector, she’s keeping one eye on me and one eye on Emmett Noughton, her fiancé’s brother.

He’s the charming, fun-loving, take-life-as-it-comes kind of guy, and once upon a time, his name was scribbled in my notebooks. Back then, I was invisible to him. Now, he’s looking at me like I’m the only thing in the room. But he lost his chance with me a long time ago.

It’s easy to keep him at arm’s length and nurse the grudge I’ve held onto for years. Until the house I’m staying in sells, and I have nowhere to go except his house. Now, resisting him isn’t just difficult—it’s impossible.

MY REVIEW


Briar's coming back home, and not thrilled to find out she has to room with her former high school crush, now the guy she hates most in this world. But with enough close proximity, she just may find that Emmett isn't the bad guy she had thought. And he might even be the sweetest guy who'll come to mean the most to her.


Emmett's spent his whole life portraying an image that isn't really true. He's let his family think he's just carefree and without a passion for anything. But he wants to be taken seriously and start his own business with his family's backing and approval. Then Briar comes back home and completely turns everything upside down. Once he finds out her big secret, and why she's hated him all these years, he knows he'll do everything he can to redeem himself and be there for her in every way.


Briar and Emmett are so sweet, and funny together. Their banter, and the way Emmett kept flirting, only to get shut down every single time had me smirking the whole time. The tension was there too, though, and I was waiting impatiently for them to finally give in. When they did, whew! I had been impatiently waiting for Emmett's story, and it did not disappoint. I think he's my favorite brother so far. Can't wait for the next story now.

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...
