Hot in Hellcat Canyon | Julie Anne Long

This was the first contemporary romance that I have read from this author but have always loved her historical ones. This one was good but fairly predictable. I am happy that Long‘s signature humor was abundant here, and I think I fell a little for the movie star hero with a heart of gold. His wedding toast alone is worth the read!❤️The waitress/artist heroine was not one of my favorite leading ladies from her, but still a solidly good read! 4/5⭐️

Excited to finally start this series from one of my favorite historical romance authors! I‘ve never read a contemporary from her so I‘m a little nervous to see how this measures up to her historicals. 😬 I‘ve heard good things! 🤞🤞

Jas16 I really liked this one and hope you do too! 6y
robinb @Jas16 thanks! So far, so good! 👍 6y
ScientistSam Loved this one, hope you do too! 6y
robinb @ScientistSam thanks I did! Finished it last night and need to post about it...thanks for the reminder! 😊 6y

"Because from the moment he'd walked in, it was as if someone had dialed the universe up a notch: all of the colors were just a little brighter, and everything seemed more distinct and more beautiful, and her very blood seemed to buzz."

Enjoying this so far! Thanks for the rec, @BookThingo @ScientistSam @nitalibrarian @EloisaJames

Chachic @hollybally This is my intro to this author. I should ty her historicals, I think I may have one of them on my Kindle. I think you'll enjoy this.😊 7y
islandstorygirl @Chachic One of my favorite historicals was by Julie Anne Long (How the Marquess was Won). I've been meaning to try this one! 7y
Chachic @islandstorygirl Oh you'll definitely enjoy reading this one if you're already a fan of her historicals. It's a good one! Planning to read the second book in the series soon. 7y

Totally a #BlameItOnLitsy title! Recommended by @EloisaJames @BookThingo @ScientistSam. This is just the Kindle sample, which I finished but still couldn't decide if I want to buy the book. Maybe I should wait for it to become a Kindle deal? Why am I interested in buying new books instead of reading the ones I already have? 😭😂

#romantsy #bookandcoffee #bookanddessert

robinb I have this but haven't read yet. I ❤️ her historicals but haven't read any of her contemporaries yet. I have the same problem myself....I've got lots of books on my Kindle waiting to be read, but keep finding more to add. 😫😳😂 7y
Chachic @robinb Oh I haven't read anything from this author! But I keep hearing good things about this title and I'm always willing to try good romances.😊 Why do we keep tempting ourselves with new books when we can just read the ones we already have? 😭😭😭 7y
nitalibrarian This author has such a unique, lovely way of writing. I love both her historicals and contemporaries. I say give her a shot. 😜 7y
Chachic @nitalibrarian Thanks for sharing your thoughts! I know I'll probably give in and buy this title, maybe after I read one book that I already own. So I can justify the purchase.😂 7y

This was such fun! I'm normally not a fan of the movie star romance trope, but the characters and banter between them made it a really enjoyable read

That happy moment when a book references one of your favorite songs! ❤️🎸❤️
California Stars by Billy Bragg and Wilco, based on lyrics written but never recorded by Woody Guthrie, if you're curious 😉

I owe @EloisaJames a big thank you for putting this book on my radar. I am not sure I would have picked it up otherwise and I loved it. Great banter, laugh out loud moments, strong characters. Already bought book two in the series. #romantsy

aizekj I have this but haven't read it yet. I LOVE Julie Anne Long! The Pennyroyal Green series is one of my all time favorite series. 😊 7y
Jas16 @aizekj I don't think I have read those so I will add them to my list. 7y

This was an adorable and funny contemporary romance! I loved the banter between our hero and heroine. It's been awhile since a contemporary romance made me laugh out loud, but this one did!

Britt has run away from her old life and is gradually rebuilding. Enter a hot actor whose career is currently a bit shaky, and sparks fly. Britt has to decide whether to trust again, or whether to run.

5/5⭐s

Trigger warning in comments with spoiler below.

ScientistSam Trigger warning: Britt's former marriage was abusive and there is one scene in which they discuss what her ex-husband did to her. 7y
Mc_cart_ny I thought this sounded fun so I went to hit 'stack' BUT I already had! I really need to read this one of I'm trying to put it on my TBR list multiple times! 7y
ScientistSam @Mc_cart_ny haha, that's definitely happened to me too! 7y

#fastread #springflingread. This is a truly feel good contemporary romance. A fun fluffy story , a washed up movie star meets an enchanting waitress , you can guess the rest. So sweet , so sassy , so spicy 🌶 and there's a cat named Philip 😻

Started a new romance novel for February and so far it's awfully cute. Britt is starting her shift at the Misty Cat Cavern tavern when in walks a gorgeous guy. JT is an used to be famous actor looking for some lunch. Guess who attracts his attention? #romantsy perfect for reading in the car before work

@Christinak wrote a great review for this book and I just happened to see it on the staff pick shelf at Coles this weekend. So #blameitonLitsy #romance 😀👍

Christinak I just read the second in the series yesterday! I am going to preorder the next one for sure. Right now I'm binging on her regency romances ❤ 7y
GypsyKat I had a #blameitonlitsy post myself today. I got the Graceling series because I saw you posting about it a while ago and it peaked my heart interest. So thanks! 👍🏼 7y
Dragon Thanks @GypsyKat I hope you enjoy it as much as I did ! 👍🐉 7y
Dragon Thanks @Christinak I'm looking forward to reading it and glad to know there's another book available and another soon to be published 👍📚 7y

I have not read anything by this author before. This book was recommended by a favorite author of mine Charis Michaels. I was able to borrow this from my library but I am definitely going to get a copy - this is a keeper! This book is swoony, witty and just sweet. #recommendedbyanauthoryoulove #popsugar2017 #popsugarreadingchallenge #romantsy

raelaschoenherr I like her historicals but have never read her contemporary! Check out 7y
Christinak @raelaschoenherr I love when you find a "new" author that has enough books to binge read! 7y
raelaschoenherr Totally!!! 👌🏻 7y
Dragon I saw this as a staff recommends at the local bookstore and now I wish I had bought it. 😀 7y

I literally could not put this book down! I put it in my Litsy list, but the title seemed to promise an irascible heroine--not so! I adore Britt. She's independent, loving, funny, and altogether wonderful. I loved that her head was not turned by the handsome movie star who strolled into her restaurant. Do not miss this one!! #romantsy. #romance. #keeper

nitalibrarian Her contemporaries are just as lovely as her historicals. 7y

Mehso-so

Loved the characters and setting, but "he's famous, she's not" would have been enough drama for me without a ton of ex girlfriend and miscommunication stuff thrown in at the end.
