seriously romantic: love, again by l.p. dover

l.p. dover's latest, love, again, is a second-chance romance that features a hotshot hollywood director and the man she left behind in dusty valley, oklahoma to reach her dreams. in the ten years since she left her first love, aubrey has never forgotten cole.

so when a misdiagnosis has her questioning her life choices, she decides to start living with no regrets. she writes up a bucket list and leaves the glitz and glamour of hollywood behind. the pull of reconnecting with her lost love is too strong to deny, so she finds herself going back home.

and honestly, there was very little conflict in this book. she goes home, reconnects with her guy who forgives her because he's still in love with her. and like no one holds the fact that she left everyone behind against her. it's true that communication goes both ways, so i suppose it's not a bad thing that she doesn't have to shoulder all the blame for leaving her entire life before hollywood in the dust bowl. but it's almost a little too easy.

everything in this book is almost too easy. all these couples fall in love and get their happily ever after. and the only concern hanging over anyone's head is whether or not aubrey is going to go back to hollywood, but she is pretty clear on what she wants to do with her life. and while it is still making movies, she doesn't need to live in hollywood to do it.

this was perfectly enjoyable, if you like low-angst books with little conflict, this is for you.

**love, again will publish on april 9, 2019. i received an advance reader copy courtesy of netgalley/random house publishing group (loveswept) in exchange for my honest review.

simply catching up on all things general hospital

hmmm, it's been months since i've blogged about gh . partly this is due to the fact that i fell behind while i was traveling. partly because all the outrage lapsed into disinterest when i realized i couldn't bring myself to care anymore and everything that was happening was just so trite and boring. some days i still feel that way. and there are still whole storylines that i either hate or just fast forward through. but there are some good things too. in no particular order, here are my thoughts on the goings-on in port charles: 1. soras [and why re-casting roles works on soaps even if you do miss the original actors]: the new, older versions of sonny's kids are turning out to be quite enjoyable. [although hilariously, cameron whom i believe is older than molly is now younger. and because cameron is so cute, i'm kind of hoping they won't fix that. we also haven't seen spencer in ages, so he may be approaching 50.] in any case, at this point we've only s...

When you know you shouldn't go there? Not even in your head. Annie has never experienced the 'spark' with a guy-the kind of instant chemistry that steals your breath and blindsides you completely.
