Top 5 Summer Reads on my TBR pile
For me Summer Reads are books that are light hearted and fun, but it can also range from Mysterious to a thriller or a novella in the Romance section; New Adult or Paranormal. I guess it still always depends what my mood is. As long as the books can be read in a couple of days or even a day sometimes for me, but as always I am rambling on. ^_^
Let me now introduce you to my top 5 books I really would love to read this Summer. They are either on my TBR pile or I on my wish list to buy. So here it goes!

Ever since her close friend Lil, from The Gingerbread Café, had become engaged she had been yearning for a little love to turn her life. Except Sarah knew a good man was hard to find – especially in a tiny town like Ashford. That was until New York journalist, Ridge Warner stepped into her bookshop…
