Blog Tour: Sweet Love and Country Roads by Camilla Isley*

 

'Falling for the wrong cowboy never felt so good . . .

Samantha Baker is a high-flying movie producer living in New York City. She loves her shoes, drinking cosmopolitans, and wouldn’t trade the comforts of city life for anything in the world. But when her job is put on the line, Samantha has no other choice than to move to the middle of nowhere to straighten out the filming of her latest romantic comedy blockbuster.

Her new country home has no Starbucks, no Pilates, and the one pub in town has never heard of appletinis—only serves beer and whiskey neat. On the plus side, the views are scenic. And not just for the aerial shots, as the local eye-candy provides a welcome distraction.

At least until Samantha discovers a native cowboy, Travis Hunt, is the source of all her troubles...

And the battle begins.

Each has something the other wants, but as Samantha and Travis go head to head, they might discover the endgame has changed. When hate turns to heat, all becomes fair in love and war for these two sworn enemies who’ve been playing a game of hearts.

But will a roll in the hay be enough to make Samantha decide there’s no sex in the city and convert to country living?'

This is the story of Sam and Travis, which is told over the course of 32 Chapters plus a bonus chapter. This is also book 7 in Camilla's First comes Love series. Although this is book is part of a series, it is also a standalone novel. 

This book is your classic enemies to lovers story with the added bonus that it is a also a romcom. The book is full of giggle moments. However these are very cute giggle moments. These moments are more apparent in the bonus story. 

Throughout the normal story you get a mixture of both cute giggle moments and emotional moments. Emotional moments that will make readers get lost in the pages of the book. It isn't just the emotional moments that will draw the readers in. 

Sam is your typical girlie girl, who knows what she likes when it comes to brands and guys. Whereas when it comes to Travis he know what doesn't suit him but also say hello to your new book boyfriend. A very versatile book boyfriend who can rock a cowboy hat jeans just as well as a business suit. 

This book is very easy to get addicted to, so much so that readers will easily find themselves going through several chapters without realising it. They will be that engrossed in the book and the story. 

Let's tell you a little bit about the Author Camilla Isley who is an engineer who left science behind to enter the whimsical realm of romantic fiction. She writes contemporary rom-coms. Her characters have big hearts, might be a little stubborn, at times and love to banter with each other. Every story she pens has a guaranteed HEA that will make your heart beat faster. Unless you're a vampire, of course. She is a cat lover, coffee addict and shoe hoarder. Beside writing, she loves reading (duh), cooking, watching bad TV and going to movies - popcorn please. She is a bit of a foodie, nothing too serious. Camilla is a keen traveller who knows mosquitoes play a role in the ecosystem, and doesn't want to starve all those frog princes but could really live without them. 

Overall this is a brilliantly addictive book. That is a must read whether you have read the entire series or whether this is the first one you read. You can get your copy HERE

Blog Tour: The Meet Cute Method by Portia Macintosh*

'Do movie romances ever happen in real life...?

Frankie doesn't believe in true love. As relationships expert at popular magazine Stylife, she has learnt that dating disasters are far more common than happy ever afters.

So when she is tasked to find out if meet cutes can work in real life she is up for the challenge - but whether it's being a damsel in distress with a flat tyre, or spilling coffee over a stranger, she isn't convinced this can really lead to love.

But little does Frankie know that the ultimate meet cute opportunity is just around the corner. As she is whisked off her feet (all in the name of her work project of course...) perhaps true love isn't just for the movies after all...?'

This is the story of Frankie, which is told over the course of 41 Chapters. Throughout this book Frankie finds herself in situations that readers will find funny and interesting. 

From the very start of this book readers will be intrigued and giggling from not only the story but the sort of situations that Frankie finds herself. Whether the situation works out for her or not, it is one more reason why readers will enjoy this book. 

This story is easy to get stuck into, to the point that readers will soon find themselves whizzing through the chapters. Quicker than they anticipated. Although this story is filled with its share of laugh out loud moments, there was a few moments that I would call 'tear jerky'. Now they weren't full on, grab a new box of tissues tear jerk moments, more along the lines of a tear or two may escape you. 

Now let me tell you a little bit more about the Author Portia MacIntosh, who is a bestselling romantic comedy author of 16 novels. This list includes titles such as It's Not You, It's Them and Honeymoon For One. Portia was previously a music journalist, she writes hilarious stories, drawing on her own real life experiences. 

Overall this book is full of moments that are both funny and adorable at the same time. Every moment like this within this book proves to the reader why this is a romcom. You can get your copy HERE
