The Runaway Bride of Blitzen Bay

June 9, 2022

Summary

From the author of Truth or Tequila, a sweet and spirited romantic comedy. A runaway bride. Her handsome getaway driver. A cozy town with a cast of animated citizens to help her figure it all out.

Noelle’s getting married in three days. It’s a dream come true—for her mom. For Noelle, it’s starting to feel like the walls are closing in. She’s known for months that something’s changing—namely, her fiancé. He’s becoming someone she doesn’t know anymore. She’s tried to ignore it, but her gut’s telling her that she’s marrying the wrong person.

Nash retired from the military three months ago. He’s not in the mood to celebrate anything. He just wants to be left alone. His high school buddy’s getting married in a few days. He has no desire to go, but every time he tries to throw the invitation out, an alarm goes off in his head. For some reason, he feels like he’s supposed to be there.

It’s thirty minutes before the wedding starts. Noelle’s in her wedding dress. Nash is in his seat. The universe is trying to bring these two strangers together. Is it ever too late to meet the man of your dreams?

The Runaway Bride of Blitzen Bay can be read as a standalone novel or as the first book in The Blitzen Bay Series. Visit donnaschwartze.com for a suggested reading order.

“Blitzen Bay is a magical place with beautiful people. I loved all of the characters so much. I wish it was a movie or a series so we can dive deeper into each of their lives a little more.” Amazon Review

“This book is heartwarming, fun, humorous—just a magical little gem of a story.” Amazon Review

“Am I the only one wondering if Nash has a brother? Hopefully my age and single. What a beautiful book. Fast paced with heart-lifting dialogue. The natural witty banter is straight couple goals!” Goodreads Review

Review

‘Sometimes you have to break free of what you know to find out who you are.’

Rowan

June 9, 2022

Summary

A Reckless Princess. An Enemy Kingdom. And a mistake that could cost her everything.

Rowan never wanted the kind of love you go to war for — the kind of love that could break you.

But when a harmless adventure lands her in the dungeons of her enemy, she’ll realize that’s just one of many things that’s beyond her control. Between Socairan politics, blood debts, and arseling lords with perilously gray morality, Rowan is forced to learn more than she ever wanted to about herself, about the kinds of choices she is capable of making.

And about how much she’s willing to risk for a love she never wanted to begin with.

Rowan contains all four books in The Lochlann Feuds Series by USA Today Bestselling Authors Robin D. Mahle and Elle Madison:

  1. Scarlet Princess
  2. Tarnished Crown
  3. Crimson Kingdom
  4. Obsidian Throne

*Plus* exclusive bonus content, including twenty new chapters, special edition artwork, and more!

Dive into this coming-of-age story full of sizzling enemies-to-lovers romance, witty banter, and a depth of character you won’t see coming.

**The Lochlann Feuds takes place after the events of The Lochlann Treaty Series, but it can be devoured and enjoyed all on its own.**

Review

“Don’t we always own a piece of the person who loves us?”

He’s a Keeper

May 26, 2022

Summary

Drunk-texting a grumpy soccer star?
Best worst decision of my life. 

Especially when the player is the sinfully handsome, foul-mouthed Holden Sanders… my new library assistant.The benched bad boy needed an image makeover, I needed to save my job, and his star status was just what the library ordered to raise awareness for our fundraising campaign. The press can’t get enough of Mr. Growly reading to kids.
It’s win-win and completely platonic.

Until I need a shoulder to cry on after drowning my heartbreak in too many margaritas. I only typed that invitation to his brawny biceps and perfect pectorals for fun–I never meant to hit send. Holden isn’t the kind of guy to care about tears and feelings, least of all mine. He’s made it clear good girls aren’t his type.

But he shows up–with his strapping shoulder, a box of tissues, and a supersized bag of Doritos.

That’s when I realize there’s more to him than meets the eye.

One soulful, smoldering mistake of a kiss has me craving more, and the heat between us quickly builds to a blaze neither of us can control.

But I’m not the only one guarding secrets, and Holden’s might push us to the breaking point.

Even if I’m surrounded by books, I know better than to believe in storybook endings.

And yet, I want to believe… Because I know he’s a keeper.

Review

The glimpses I’ve caught so far only want me to strip the remaining sheen away.

“A Bánh Mì for Two” is a feel-good story abo “A Bánh Mì for Two” is a feel-good story about food, family, and self-discovery.

Dual POVs: Lan, who lives in Sai Gon, wants to be the perfect daughter and fulfill “expectations,” all the while dealing with the grief of losing her father. Vivi is a Vietnamese-American who comes to Vietnam for the first time, wanting to learn more about her family and herself. Their love of food connects them. 

I wasn’t expecting to get emotional as I did.

“A Bánh Mì for Two” was what I needed growing up. Stories with characters who look like me are coming to traditional publishing in YA. And people even know about it!

If only the blog was real! I would use it the next time I go to Vietnam. It needs to be a thing.

It was relatable. However, I wished for more at moments. 
A few times, I had to stop to look up words. Since I can understand Vietnamese more than I can read it, I had to listen to the words to understand what they were. It would have been an even better experience if I had listened to the audiobook. 

“A Bánh Mì for Two” was one of my anticipated books of the year, and I am honored to be gifted a copy.
