5,000 CIRCUS STARS!!!!!!You HAVE to read this book!!! Please. I’m begging you, fellow readers.This is not your typical story. This is not your typical book. This is a story that you have never read….trust me. It is anything BUT typical. The story begins with an arranged marriage. No, it’s not set in the medieval times. It’s a modern arranged marriage. Say what?! I know. It seems off-putting at first. But we quickly get to know Alex and Daisy, and the reason for the arranged marriage takes an app...

This book was not my cuppa.I didn't like the hero, he was a real as*hole for me and the heroine was kind of a doormat, so I didn't like her much, either. Their marriage was based on something unbelievable for me. And there wasn't enough groveling at all... Little to none!My 2 points go to the scenes with Sinjun, the tiger and Tater, the elephant, as I fell in love with these two animals :)

Why did it take me so long to read this?Just kidding, I know exactly why. Because, quite bluntly, I hate the circus. HATE it. Since, you know, human exploitation and rampant animal abuse, among other things. But you came here for a review on this wonderful book, not to hear me rant about the circus. So I put that tangent, which generally outlines some TMI thoughts about the circus, at the end of this review (for those interested). But I digress. For the above reason, I typically skirt away from

Do you know that feeling when you have just finished a book you adored but you just can't figure out how to express that on your review? Well that's exactly what happened to me but I'll do my best to try to explain it to you all.This was my favorite book from this author, I even liked it more than the Chicago stars series and I already had adored that one, I gave 5 stars to most of the books in it. But it was so different this time. I couldn't put the book down, that's how FREAKING amazing it wa...

4.25 Stars (Originally Read - 6/22/2018)4.25 Stars (Re-Read -1/20/2020)Overall Opinion: Wow! This was so much better than I thought it'd be! I know I might be giving too much away here -- but I think keeping the circus aspect of this book a secret is a poor choice! I might've picked this up sooner if I had known what all we experienced with that! It's an older book, but it really didn't feel all that dated tbh -- maybe the clothing descriptions, but that's about it. I came across this again when...

OMG...I cant even...This love story just blew me away..... "I don't love you anymore,Alex.""It's alright sweetheart.I love you enough for the both of us." KISS AN ANGEL is a beautiful love story that revolves around two broken & loney souls,both vulnerable and lost in their own ways...Honestly speaking,this book surprised me in more ways than one.I mean with its chic-lite cover,and the book's subtle summary.I had no clue,how emotional this book would really turn out to be.The characters

5 BILLION ZILLION GAJILLIONTY STARS I take thee... to be my awful wedded husband” I have NO idea how I missed this book by one of my all time favorite authors, considering I've practically read her entire backlist. But I did. And I've been kicking myself for days for taking this long to do it. Because this book? THIS BOOK WAS MAGICAL! It is hands down my favorite contemporary romance, not only from this author, but period. Yes. It was THAT good. Actually, no. It wasn't just good. It w...

+++2 stars only for the writing+++I still cant fully decide how im feeling about this book. First i want to say that when i first started this book i thought that its not what i expected because of that cover, i thought that it really needed a change because it was quite good, BUT than i found out that this book definitely doesnt need a different cover, its really what you can see in that picture - stupid naive pathetic little girl who lets people walk over her through the whole freakin book.She...

2.5 stars SEP has written some of my favourite romance books so I had little doubt that this wasn’t gonna be a winner. I was so sure that I bought the paperback as well as the ebook (impulse buys never turn out ok for me, I should have learned that by now)When I read the synopsis and the reviews I was anxiously preparing for all that delicious angst and the epic grovel - those are the two main reasons I picked this up - BUT as it turns out, this didn’t do it for me. AT ALL - the stars are only

4.5 starsI’ve had this one and I’ve been wanting to read it since forever and I’m glad I finally picked it up. It was just so fun and so unique in its own way. I’m a sucker for the marriage of convenience trope and this one was so adorable. This book takes place in a circus which is another thing I’ve never saw on a romance. The setting was perfect with many adorable animals and many nice side characters that added a lot to the story.I loved both the main characters so much. They both showed maj...

So the romance was between Daisy and Alex or Daisy and the tiger? Or was it with the baby elephant? Honest to God, this girl had better relationship with her assorted animal crew than her husband. Too much drama with the ex for my liking, but this sure was entertaining. SEP's writing was top-notch as always!

5 STARS[image error] Seriously.. I’m speechless.. LOVE LOVE LOVE this book!!!!It’s official! I am hopelessly in love with Susan Elizabeth Phillips! What a wonderful and endearing story this was. I was glued to the pages from start to finish with a stupid silly grin on my face the whole time. In fact, I can’t help smiling now as I’m writing this review. Just thinking back over the story, makes me want to pick the book up and start in all over again. The characters were absolutely fantastic. Th...

5 beautiful, brilliant stars!“Don't dare a person who has nothing else left to lose.” It's official! I'm hooked! I'm the newest SEPPIE Fan Girl! I loved this story! Alex and Daisy are all kinds of amazing. I laughed, I sobbed, I sighed, I fanned myself... My only problem with the story is that it ended. Thank you to my lovely friends whose ravings made read this author. What do I read next???

Fucking loved it. Loved it. Alex is a jerk, a fucking major jerk. But ... yes, his childhood was shitty. Let's give him some space.Daisy, Daisy, Daisy. I love you.Tater. I love you too.Sheba. You are a bit of cunt. “But I don't love you, Daisy, and you can't begin to know how sorry I am about that because if I could chose anyone in this world to love, it'd be you.” My expectations are so high for the new SEP book due out in August. I sure hope it lives up to my expectations.

Review posted at: Swept Away By Romance4 1/2 Fun time Stars!! I didn't just love this book; I'm in love with it!!Admittedly when I started to read this I thought this was not going to work for me. Boy was I ever wrong!!! Even with the over-the-top unrealistic circumstances that surrounded the characters, this book STOLE MY HEART!! Daisy, oh my goodness, talk about wearing your heart on your sleeve, she did everything… everything out of love!! She was one of the sweetest, kindest, most determined...

It's not long, about few months, since I've luckily discovered SEP's books and after having enjoyed, more or less, all the other eight I've read so far, I can safely say that with Kiss an Angel I've found my first and only big disappointment. I am aware this is a rather widely beloved classic of the genre and of her backlist, and I can even see why to a certain extent, but I guess I'll have to take my turn at "unpopular opinion time" in this case. There are copious great reviews already covering...

KISS AN ANGEL published 18 years agoDaisy has finally pushed her dad to his breaking point. Spending all her deceased mother’s money and racking up debt has lead her father to give her one last chance. This last chance involves marrying a stranger and staying “happily” married to him for 6 months which after her time is up she can divorce him and collect a trust fund. Sounds easy enough?!?!Alex is a strict Russian who has agreed to marry Daisy because of a debt he owes her father. To break Daisy...
