Synopsis from Goodreads:

Sing. 

That’s what I came to do. 

I was prepared to do just that until I walked into my audition and saw him. Tall, mysterious, and gorgeous to boot, he was sitting at the coaches’ table with three others, ready to judge my performance, and decide my future. Yet, since I’d walked onto the stage, he continued to look at anything but me. So, I did the one thing I was there to do: sing. When I opened my mouth and let those words spill from my lips, he finally looked up. Those startling, dark eyes collided with mine with such intensity that I knew one thing for certain: I would never be the same. 

I am Layne Carter, newest contestant on Rising Star, the biggest singing competition on reality television. Nothing can stop me from giving this show my all. Not my horrible diva roommate. Not the fact that I'm terribly homesick and miss my family. And certainly not my uncontrollable growing attraction to my coach, Beau Tanner, award winning country superstar. Nothing will stand in my way. 

And I’m wrong.

Romance Reveal unboxing - August

Side view of the August box

I've been looking forward to this box since I originally heard Lauren Blakely was signing books for the Romance Reveal Box. It's why I signed up for the service in the first place. I didn't get so lucky this time, but at least I still got some great titles!

Before we get to the unboxing, here's a little reminder of how Romance Reveal works. It's a monthly subscription service that lets choose between two different options, which I find really nice because if someone runs on a tight budget, there's a cheaper option. Not many services have that. The options are one book for $12.95 plus shipping or the box for $24.95 plus shipping. The box will get you two signed books, some book swag, and samples. It's also packaged really nicely, which you can see below. You can find out more information about it here.
