Book Review: The Doctor's Nanny by Emerson Rose

The Doctor's Nanny by Emerson Rose
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This was another book that I had downloaded for free, that I chose to start reading after having a DNF book. I was looking for something that would be predictable and mindless that I could read quickly, and this looked like it was going to fit the bill.

I was so wrong! I thought this was going to be one of those books that was written well enough that the typos were at a minimum, young woman plus sexy alpha male doctor plus them spending 75% of the book in the bedroom equals a happily ever after. Now this book did have a young woman, sexy alpha male doctor and a HEA but they did not spend 75% of the time in the bedroom. It was NOT predictable in the slightest. I was not prepared for the characters to have so much depth to them. As much as this was a romance, and with these sort of books that normally means sex every other chapter, this story focused a lot more on the relationship aspect. It was interesting to see how throwing a five year old child into the mixed creates a different dynamic between the characters.

I loved the way the relationship developed between not just Sasha and Xavier but also between Sasha and Victoria (Xavier's daughter). The father/daughter relationship was also nice to see, as it was believable and not something that is often focused on in these types of stories. Great characters aside, this is really well written, with a good pace and flow that makes for easy reading. As well as this there is a pretty good story line underneath everything that keeps the whole thing progressing nicely.

I really enjoyed reading this and would recommend it if you are looking for something that is quick to read but still has a bit of depth to it.

Book Review: Stolen Ink (Ink Born #1) by Holly Evans

Stolen Ink by Holly Evans
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I downloaded this for free from Instafreebie.

Overall I enjoyed this story. I thought that it had a really unique and interesting concept driving the story. The characters were interesting with their own personalities that worked well together. At times I fell that there could have more of an explanation about the different types of magic and the abilities of the magic users. As much as you can understand that Tattoo magicians see a person's tattoo and bring it out of them, you never really get told what that really means; how is getting a tattoo in this world different from us going a tattoo inn the real world? I also feel that some other points could have been expanded on, for instance some back story on how the characters know each other.

This said, I'm looking forward to reading the next one in the series and seeing how the characters and their relationships develop, as well as finding out some more about them all.

This was an interesting quick read that has a lot of potential to be something really unique.

Book Review: What's Up Doctor by Lacy Embers

What's Up Doctor: A Billionaire Doctor Romance by Lacy Embers
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I downloaded this as a freebie as some extra light reading.

This is a story that is overly predictable and a HEA and yet I could not put it down. It fairly well written, although the proofread could have been better (a few missed spaces between words and some missing punctuation, but this is. A personal bugbear of mine.) I thought the characters were interesting, especially Sharon’s friends, who had some great personalities. The interactions between them all were very believable.

Overall, the writing had a good flow to it, even if there were a couple of pacing issues at the start. Although I would never call the a piece of literary genius, the storyline is pleasant, lighthearted romance. This is perfect if you are looking for a quick light read with a happily ever after.
