Hey loves. Happy Tuesday. Today I am sharing my book reviews from April. Before I start sharing what I read last month, I want to talk about kids summer reading. We all know the keeping the kids reading over the summer (and all year) is important.  I just signed my kids up for two summer reading problems. Having a little incentive to reading can't hurt. 

The one reading program is through our local library. Most libraries do have reading programs for kids over the summer. Check with your local library there is usually a fun prize at the end too. Previous years the kids got free ice cream to our favorite local ice cream shop. 

The other reading program is with Book It Program and Pizza Hut. Did you do book it when you were a kid? I remember getting a button with with stickers each month and getting a free pizza at Pizza Hut. The Book It Program is back this summer without needing to be associated with a school. The program starts June 1st but you can sign up now.

Last month I only finished books. I started two others that I haven't finished yet. One is a physical book and not an ebook. It is harder for me to make the time to hold a real book and read compared to my ebook I while nursing, putting Audrianna to bed, in the car, and before bed.

I loved this book. It is not a new concept when it comes to affirmations and the way you talk to yourself. It has some great tips and pages and pages of different affirmations that you can incorporate in your daily routine. You can also email the author and get printable affirmations 5 out of 5 stars. 

The Dare by Lauren Landish 

Have you ever had one of those really bad days at work?
You know, one where your hot boss catches you photocopying your backside in his office?
No? Just me then?

I blame my bestie and partner in chaos.
She challenged me with a not-so-innocent dare that I should’ve flat out declined.

But I’m an adrenaline junkie, and now, here I am.
I know it sounds crazy, and daredevil tendencies aside, I definitely went too far to get his attention.

But you haven’t seen him.
Colton Wolfe. My boss.
Tall, dark, and handsome, with the sexiest British accent I’ve ever heard.
His only flaw? That he’s completely oblivious to what’s been right in front of him all along.
Me.

Well, he was until a few minutes ago.
Remember those good old days?
Before I got caught making "nice" with the copy machine, and before I was totally getting fired?

But wait. Maybe I’m not.
If I can take on the biggest dare of all.
Making Colton Wolfe fall in love with me.

The Dare was an fun read. There were some erotic parts, lots of fun dares, and unrealistic makes it enjoyable. I give it a 4 out of 5 stars.

That Second Chance by Meghann Quinn

It was supposed to be an innocent night, celebrating my brother’s birthday. Nothing was supposed to go wrong. We’d vowed to be on our best behavior after all . . .

But it only took one rowdy night with my brothers to flip my world upside down. One unlucky encounter saddled us with a family curse and the promise of doomed relationships. I laughed it off immediately. “Yeah, right,” I thought. “A love curse. Ha!”

Boy, was I wrong.

Word spreads quickly in a town like mine; rumors about that night soon made us the most eligible yet untouchable bachelors in Port Snow, Maine. As a subject of endless gossip and speculation, I could kiss my dating life goodbye.

It would have stayed that way if Ren Winters, the new girl in town, hadn’t crashed into my life. Brave, beautiful, and smart—her vivacious thirst for a fresh start has given me hope that maybe, just maybe, I can have one too.

Everyone wishes for that second chance . . . but could this really be mine?
