The Trouble with Falling – Rachel Morgan


♥♥♥♥

***I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review***

The Trouble with Falling is the fourth book in ‘The Trouble Series’ and could most definitely be read as a standalone.

We get to know Sophie just before her sister’s wedding, we know that her previous relationship didn’t end on a great note and that Sophie has now distanced herself from everyone, only opening up to an artist, Lex, she has met on an online artist website. Throughout all the prep for the wedding, we meet Caleb, the best man for the wedding, and the two somehow hit it off, and Caleb is determined to pull Sophie out of her dark corner.

I enjoyed this book, Rachel really knows how to get you to love her characters and pull you into the story, I also love how she weaves all the previous stories into each other that should you not read these in order or not read all of them you won’t feel lost.

It is a feel-good, book that makes you smile like a Cheshire cat while reading.

The Trouble with Faking – Rachel Morgan


♥♥♥♥


I am telling you this series is giving me so many feelings and just confirmed to myself that this is my genre, this is what I love to read.

I was given a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

This one follows Andi, she has longed for the boy next door, Damien, since she was 10. Andi moves to Cape Town to attend UCT, almost immediately there is a twist to the book as Charlotte, Damien’s girlfriend, suspects that he is cheating on her with Andi. After Charlotte breaks up with Damien, he and Andi decide to continue the façade, ‘to make the people they really like jealous.’

Andi is pretending she likes someone else, even though she is in love with Damien, Damien is in love with someone else and pretending to be in a relationship with Andi, and the game just gets interesting from there.

There were so many twists and turns in this book, that when the end happened, I couldn’t help but giggle because I had it so wrong.

I would definitely recommend this series to any contemporary romance fans, and of course, there is the added bonus that it is set around a location I have actually been, and I could nostalgically dream back to that  wonderful holiday.  The other thing I really enjoyed was the fact that Andi is a Booktuber and has an Etsy shop. I am a big fan of Booktubers.

The Trouble novels are stand-alone novels that can be read in any order, but each contains mild spoilers for any previous books in the Trouble series. I have now also seen that the author is considering publishing these under a pen name to set them apart from her fantasy novels. So if you can’t find it under Rachel Morgan, you might get it under Rochelle Morgan.

The Trouble with Flirting – Rachel Morgan


♥♥♥♥

I was given a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

I enjoyed this book immensely, the writing emerged you into this world, and after visiting Cape Town last December I was very nostalgic about the scenes set out in front of me.

This one follows Livi, after being labelled a nerd at high school she is determined to shed this persona when she leaves for university. But nothing is as simple as it seems and through everything, Livi learns that being in the in-crowd isn’t everything it’s cracked up to be.

Livi did work on my nerves at times, maybe because I am a nerd and can’t imagine one day going without reading, or having to put up such a front to proof you aren’t one. All the nerdy references had me giggling.

I flew through this book as it was a very quick read. Would definitely recommend this one.

The Trouble with Flying – Rachel Morgan


♥♥♥♥




I was given a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

I flew through this one, it was short, witty and blew me away. The characters were lovable and to me Sarah was relatable.

It follows Sarah, a nineteen-year-old introvert who boards a plane to fly back home after her overseas holiday, on the flight, she meets Aiden, the guy who sits next to her, Sarah goes outside of her comfort zone and spend the flight talking to Aiden for hours.

I enjoyed the twist in the story, Rachel Morgan had me gasping, chuckling at the witty banter between the characters, and doing a quick stop at our local shop as I was craving Zoo Biscuits like there was no tomorrow.

Definitely a great read and will be diving into the rest of the series ASAP.
