Welcome to the Sundays In Bed With… Meme! The meme that dares to ask what book has been in your bed this morning? Come share what book you’ve spent time curled up reading in bed, or which book you wish you had time to read today! This meme is hosted by Midnight Book Girl.

This weekend I’m reading Always Never Yours by Emily Wibberley & Austin Siegemund-Broka. I’m about halfway through and I ADORE this book. The writing is flawless and I love the characters so much. I can’t see myself not rating it 5 stars. Sure, I still have half the book left, but I’m 100% sure of what’s going to happen with the rest of the story and I am here for it.

Title: Always Never Yours

Author: Emily Wibberley & Austin Siegemund-Broka

Series: Standalone

Publisher: Penguin Books

Release Date: May 22, 2018

Seventeen-year-old Megan Harper is about due for her next sweeping romance. It’s inevitable—each of her relationships starts with the perfect guy and ends with him falling in love . . . with someone else. But instead of feeling sorry for herself, Megan focuses on pursuing her next fling, directing theater, and fulfilling her dream college’s acting requirement in the smallest role possible.
So when she’s cast as Juliet (yes, that Juliet) in her high school’s production, it’s a complete nightmare. Megan’s not an actress, and she’s used to being upstaged—both in and out of the theater. In fact, with her mom off in Texas and her dad remarried and on to baby #2 with his new wife, Megan worries that, just like her exes, her family is moving on without her.
Then she meets Owen Okita, an aspiring playwright inspired by Rosaline from Shakespeare’s R+J. A character who, like Megan, knows a thing or two about short-lived relationships. Megan agrees to help Owen with his play in exchange for help catching the eye of a sexy stagehand/potential new boyfriend. Yet Megan finds herself growing closer to Owen, and wonders if he could be the Romeo she never expected.

Sundays In Bed With… Behind Closed Doors by B.A. Paris

This weekend I’m reading Behind Closed Doors by B.A. Paris. In the spirit of Halloween I decided to pick up a psychological thriller, which is definitely one of my favourite genres. So far I’m kind of in the middle on if I like it or not, but I’m only about 15% through so we’ll see how the rest of it goes. I plan on reading plenty more today and on my day off tomorrow.

Title: Behind Closed Doors

Series: Standalone

Publisher: St. Martin’s Press

Everyone knows a couple like Jack and Grace. He has looks and wealth, she has charm and elegance. You might not want to like them, but you do.
You’d like to get to know Grace better.
But it’s difficult, because you realise Jack and Grace are never apart.
Some might call this true love. Others might ask why Grace never answers the phone. Or how she can never meet for coffee, even though she doesn’t work. How she can cook such elaborate meals but remain so slim. And why there are bars on one of the bedroom windows.
Sometimes, the perfect marriage is the perfect lie.

This weekend I’m reading And I Darken by Kiersten White. I was going through my books, trying to find what to read next and this one really captured my attention. Fantasy and political intrigue? Yes please! Sign me up. I’m not too far into it (about 50 pages or so) and so far I’m liking it a lot.

Title: And I Darken

Author: Kiersten White

Series: The Conqueror’s Saga #1

No one expects a princess to be brutal. And Lada Dragwlya likes it that way. Ever since she and her gentle younger brother, Radu, were wrenched from their homeland of Wallachia and abandoned by their father to be raised in the Ottoman courts, Lada has known that being ruthless is the key to survival. She and Radu are doomed to act as pawns in a vicious game, an unseen sword hovering over their every move. For the lineage that makes them special also makes them targets.
Lada despises the Ottomans and bides her time, planning her vengeance for the day when she can return to Wallachia and claim her birthright. Radu longs only for a place where he feels safe. And when they meet Mehmed, the defiant and lonely son of the sultan, Radu feels that he’s made a true friend—and Lada wonders if she’s finally found someone worthy of her passion.
But Mehmed is heir to the very empire that Lada has sworn to fight against—and that Radu now considers home. Together, Lada, Radu, and Mehmed form a toxic triangle that strains the bonds of love and loyalty to the breaking point.

Sundays In Bed With… Midnight Sun by Stephenie Meyer

This weekend I’m reading Midnight Sun by Stephenie Meyer. I am absolutely L O V I N G it so far. I’m glad we had to wait ten years for this because the writing is miles above Twlight. I want to finish it all in one day, but I also want to take my sweet ass time because it’s so good. I’m loving being in Edward’s head and hearing everything from his perspective. Stephenie Meyer saved 2020 and you can’t convince me otherwise.

Sundays In Bed WIth...

This weekend I’m spending Sunday with Beautifully Cruel by J.T. Geissinger. Ok, so technically I spent Saturday with this book and finished it yesterday, but I haven’t chosen anything new to read yet, so I’ll mention this one. Honestly, you should probably get used to seeing it around. I’m going to be talking about it A LOT. I absolutely loved it.

Title: Beautifully Cruel

Release Date: May 15, 2020

Alpha (noun):
1) Having the highest rank in a dominance hierarchy
2) The most powerful man in a group
3) Liam Black

He was a stranger to me, a dark and dangerous presence who materialized from the shadows one rainy night to save me from a vicious attack. I didn’t know his name or where he was from. All I knew was that the only place I’d ever felt safe was in his arms.

But safety is an illusion.
And not every savior is a hero.
And—as I’d soon find out—having an alpha save your life comes with a price.

Liam Black wanted something from me in return.

A Lovely Book Affair

the only kind of affair worth having
