Blurb
There are worse things in life than being the CEO of the largest and oldest whiskey distillery in South Carolina and the self-proclaimed patriarch of my family. I can’t complain, even if my personal life has taken what seems to be a permanent backseat over the last two years.

I have my mom and brothers to look out for, a business to run, and a legacy to uphold. With the responsibility I shoulder, I don’t have the capacity for much else in my life.

Enter Lila Avondale, my new—and extremely reluctant—business partner. She’s gorgeous, witty, obstinate, and everything I never knew I wanted.

Something about Lila’s frosty charisma has me completely captivated, but she doesn’t trust my family or me as far as she can throw us.

I’m making it my mission to knock down her well-constructed walls and get to know the real her, the one she keeps hidden away. But a series of unfortunate mishaps and an unsuspecting grudge could wreck any chance I have at making that happen.

Will I break through and form a connection that could change everything for us both, or will she always keep her heart hidden from me?

MY REVIEW

Corbin's the CEO of his family's prestigious distillery when a local competitor comes to him with a surprise, welcome offer. With that offer comes the competitor's daughter, the very woman who was ice cold to him the night before. Working with Lila is beginning to show a different side to her, and he's determined to prove to her that he and his family are not who she prejudged them to be. Will he ever be able to get her to open her heart to him?

Lila's starting to realize she and her family had some serious misconceptions about Corbin and his family and business. She's got walls up sky high now that her father has sold their company to Corbin's. She has to work with the man she can't stand - that's not going to end well...until it does, and she's warming up to his golden retriever energy. If she can completely open up, she and Corbin could have something beautiful.

Golden retriever x prickly black cat has never been so sweet and delicious. Corbin may be the friendliest, sweetest of a golden retriever guy, but his mouth is positively sinful! He and Lila are perfect for each other, the way they start off as rivals, enemies, what have you, but in true fashion, he gently proves to her she can trust him with every part of her - her heart, her soul, and her body. I adored this couple and am seriously excited for the rest of the Blackwood guys to fall in love 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...
