I am currently reading Accidentally Married on Purpose (Entangled Bliss) (Love and Games Book 3) By Rachel Harris.
One ring plus one wild night equals one crazy love
Sherry Robicheaux loves men. She loves love. And she loves an adventure. So when she meets a mysterious man while working backstage at a country music concert in Vegas, she's all about what's happened in Vegas staying there.
Country music superstar Tyler Blue just wants a weekend of anonymity...though there's something about the spunky waitress with the streaks of purple hair that tempts him like no other. Until the next morning, when they both wake up with fuzzy memories...and rings on their fingers.
Convincing Sherry to maintain the ruse for his public image isn't the hardest part--it's reminding himself that their time spent playing husband and wife in her small town of Magnolia Springs can't last. Tyler's first love will always be music--and the road is no place for a sweet downhome girl.

I am currently reading Nuptials for Sale by Virginia Jewel
It was just a simple prank!
Broke and bored, best friends Josh and Mel headed out to the local super store for a little free fun. Feeling mischievous, Josh took control of the store's intercom and popped the question to Mel, but when a video of Josh’s fake proposal ends up on the internet, life takes a turn for the crazy. When a television producer from a popular morning show and an executive from the super store get their hands on the story, the whole thing gets out of control.
Can Mel and Josh find a way to get out of this monstrosity before it goes too far? How are they supposed to explain to everyone that it was all just a prank? Is their friendship strong enough to last through a fake marriage? What will it cost them to sell out?

I tried reading The Good and Beautiful God: Falling in Love with the God Jesus Knows ( The Apprentice Series Book 1) by James Bryan Smith. I think this is my first bad review . I thought this book is hard to read because it is more of a work book. This book is for people who don't know God. At the end of each chapter there are study questions to ask yourself.

I am currently reading The Good and Beautiful God: Falling in Love with the God Jesus Knows ( The Apprentice Series Book 1) by James Bryan Smith.
God wants me to try harder.""God blesses me when I'm good and punishes me when I'm bad.""God is angry with me."We all have ideas that we tell ourselves about God and how he works in our lives. Some are true--but many are false. James Bryan Smith believes those thoughts determine not only who we are, but how we live. In fact, Smith declares, the most important thing about a person is what they think about God. The path to spiritual transformation begins here.Turning to the Gospels, Smith invites you to put your ideas to the test to see if they match up with what Jesus himself reveals about God. Once you've discovered the truth in Scripture, Smith leads you through a process of spiritual formation that includes specific activities aimed at making these new narratives real in your body and soul as well as your mind. At the end of each chapter you'll find an opportunity for soul training, engaging in spiritual practices that reinforce the biblical messages on your mind and heart. Because the best way to make a complete and lasting change is to go through the material in community, small group discussion questions also accompany each chapter. This deep, loving and transformative book will help you discover the narratives that Jesus lived by--to know the Lord he knew and the kingdom he proclaimed--and to practice spiritual exercises that will help you grow in the knowledge of our good and beautiful God.

I am currently reading Click Point Love by Molly Shapiro
In Molly Shapiro’s fun and sexy debut novel, four women try to sort through the wild and complicated world of text messaging, status updates, and other high-speed connections.
Best friends and fellow midwesterners Katie, Annie, Maxine, and Claudia are no strangers to dealing with love and relationships, but with online dating and social networking now in the mix, they all have the feeling they’re not in Kansas anymore. Katie, a divorced mother of two, secretly seeks companionship through the Internet only to discover that the rules of the dating game have drastically changed. Annie, a high-powered East Coast transplant, longs for a baby, yet her online search for a sperm donor is not as easy—or anonymous—as she anticipates. Maxine, a successful artist with a seemingly perfect husband, turns to celebrity gossip sites to distract herself from her less-than-ideal marriage. And Claudia, tired of her husband’s obsession with Facebook, finds herself irresistibly drawn to a handsome co-worker. As these women navigate the new highs and lows of the digital age, they each find that their wrong turns lead surprisingly to the right click and, ultimately, the connection they were seeking.

Finish Reading Sweet Nothing's Book 2 of the Sugar Springs series by Kim Law. Here is my review for it. I thought this book was sweet and cute. The downside was there was to many chapters and they were long ones. It would have been better if the chapters were shorter and cut down a bit in how many there are.

I am currently reading Sweet Nothings( A Sugar Springs Novel) by Kim Law. I got this book for free.
Joanie Bigbee, cupcake baker extraordinaire, likes to keep her options open—and she’s good at it. She's started and sold some 30 businesses in her postage stamp-sized Tennessee town, and at the moment she can be found in a short skirt and go-go boots, selling cupcakes out of the back of a converted Volkswagen van. What she moves on to next is anybody’s guess. She knows better than to be tied down. In any way. She's watched every woman in her family fall head-over-heels, only to find themselves wondering how to pick up the pieces when love is lost.
When Nick Dalton shows up at the groovy cupcakery, all Joanie wants is a taste; a fling with no strings suits her just fine. But for Nick, a bite is not enough; he wants the whole cake: a big house, a family, true love. But love only makes you stupid, right? Joanie has to decide whether to follow where her free-spirit leads…or hold on to the sweetest thing she’s ever known.

. . . .
“His name is Nick,” I said. “He seems like a total gentleman, not to mention he’s insanely gorgeous. Can I get permission to go on a date with him before he asks me out?”
Patti scoffed, stretched her leg out, and reached for her right foot. “No way.”
Why did she have to be so difficult? I was playing by her rules. “What’s the point of waiting until he asks me out, and then calling you? That’s just stupid.”
“Why should you wait? Let’s see. Brad. Paul. Mike. Marcus. And don’t think I didn’t see the wink your co-worker, Matt, gave you at lunch today.”

I just finished reading Kisses From Katie by Katie Davis. Here is my review for it. Wow Katie is an amazing strong young woman. I really enjoyed reading this book. Once I started reading it I could not put it down. It is one of those books that just grabs you from the first chapter and wont let go. I really learned a lot from this book. It really gave me a different outlook on life. It is an eye opener. Not only did I learn about Katie and her story but I also learned that you need to trust God more. I think if more people trust in God more the world would be a better place. I would highly recommend this book to a friend.
