Coming Attractions & Giveaway - - April

 



April has arrived! We are officially in the fourth month of this year and, I don't know about you all, but I'm finding that incredibly difficult to grasp. I feel like I'm going to blink and it will be Christmas again. Once again, we have some terrific books on our schedule this month and more intriguing titles to look forward to in the months ahead. Here's what's cooking this month at The Romance Dish.




We kick things off on Tuesday, April 1 with a review and giveaway of Summer in the City by Alex Aster. This contemporary romance is Aster's adult fiction debut and one of my favorite reads so far this year. 





Friday, April 4 brings a review of A Wager at Midnight. This diverse historical romance is book two in Vanessa Riley's Betting Against the Duke series. 





Join me on Tuesday, April 8 for a review of What They Don't Know by Susan Sands. This second book in Sands' Moonshine series brings romance and suspense in the mountains of Georgia. 




Nancy will be here on Wednesday, April 9 to share her thoughts about The Geographer's Map to Romance. This second book in India Holton's Love's Academic series brings a romcom story for fans of historical romance and fantasy.





I'll be Spilling the Tea on Thursday, April 10 when I share my thoughts about this newest contemporary romance by Brenda Jackson featuring amnesia, family secrets, and a matchmaking great-grandma. 




Stop by Monday, April 14 for a review and giveaway of A Wedding in the Lowcountry by Preslaysa Williams. This friends-to-lovers romance is Williams' third Lowcountry novel but is a standalone. 



Wednesday, April 16 brings a review of Jane and Dan at the End of the World. This marriage in crisis romp by Colleen Oakley is getting lots of great buzz. 

*Note: Just to let you all know, I will not be reviewing this title. It seems to be a fun read with relatable characters and lots of great reviews. I enjoyed what I read but, due to personal experiences, I found myself unexpectedly triggered by aspects of the hostage situation and was not able to continue.  




Stop by Friday, April 18 for a review and giveaway of The Love Simulation by Etta Easton. I thoroughly enjoyed Easton's debut, The Kiss Countdown and am looking forward to reading this sophomore novel. 





We're back in historical England for more romance and mystery from Manda Collins. Join me on Tuesday, April 22 for a review of A Wallflower's Guide to Viscounts and Vice, a sunshine spinster/grumpy viscount/fake engagement story that launches a new series from Collins. 




Stop by on Monday, April 28 for a review of Summer in a Bottle by Annie Rains. This standalone women's fiction novel is brimming with friendship, second-chance romance, and a touch of magic. 





Sabrina Jeffries launches a new series this month with Hazardous to a Duke's Heart. Join me on Tuesday, April 29 when I share my thoughts about this new historical romance. 





Santa will be here on Wednesday, April 30 with a review of Love, The Duke by Amelia Grey, book three in her Say I Do historical romance series. 




That's it, so far, for our April schedule. I hope we have some titles that pique your interest. 

What are you looking forward to this month?

  3. I finished reading Jane and Dan at the End of the World last night and it was just as good, and as quirky, as Colleen Oakley's last two books! I am looking forward to Sabrina Jeffries' new series and reading about the other new books.

  12. Well, this is my birth month and I hate to say it but apparently lots of good authors have written a book that I want to read. I am not sure which I am anticipating most - Jeffries, Collins, Grey, Sands, and those are just the ones I know best. Every description of a book looks like a treasure. Thanks for the list, Thanks for the fact that I "NEED" all these books.
