Switched by Cassie Mae was a funny and often frustrating read but highly entertaining. Kayla, Wesley, Reagan and Talon were all friends. Reagan and Talon were a couple while Kayla and Wesley, well they've been pining for these two since high school. Told from Kayla's point of view, she, dragging Wesley along hatches a plan to break the happy couple apart. Because as everyone can see Talon is her soulmate while Wesley is Reagan's. Thus starts the funs and the laughs and the musical chairs between the four. Kayla as a character was frustrating initially for me, I have no idea whether its because she was being an evil bestfriend to Reagan or she really was in love with Talon. I could not really hate nor empathize with her at the start. As the story progressed and the romance part began, her sudden self awareness becomes believable.

Old letters and a lost comb, a crumbling old home and family secrets; it seems The Emerald Comb is a typical recipe for a modern day English mystery. Just as anyone fond of English mysteries, I was drawn like a moth to a flame. Katie, obsessed with her lineage, spends a lot of time tracing her ancestors, the St. Clairs much to her husband's disdain. When she steps into Kingsley House, the old residence of the St. Clairs, buried secrets of the family starts to unfold and it all becomes even more muddled for Katie. Who was the owner of the emerald comb? Which part of the family history does it come in?
The Dom Project was one exceptionally good book. Engaging, witty, funny and real. A true romance with an element of BDSM but so everyday life as well. Fantastic writing, great memorable characters and a very unique twist to the friends into lovers trope. I love how Robin and John are as friends, as would be Dom and picky submissive. The way they are in the everyday life. Robin with her almost obsessive way of organizing and how vulnerable she gets when she lets down her walls. I love John's dorkiness, his laid back attitude and the way he becomes everything Robin needs in the end. There are a lot of elements going into this book but its all flawlessly put together making the flow of the story great. It has enough of everything for every reader. Highly recommended reading whether you are into the BDSM romantic genre or not. *The ARC for this novel was provided by the publisher and NetGalley in return for an honest review*
What eye-catching covers! They remind me of those historical romance novels of old, and now even contemporary books are at it.
