Unorthodox Love by Heidi Shertox review

Title: Unorthodox Love

Author: Heidi Shertox

Ch: 30 plus epilogue

Pg: 33

Genre: Jewish rom com

Rating: 4 stars

Publisher:  Alcove Press

Thanks to Jean Meltzer I’m hooked on Jewish rom com and romances and any books that focuses on Jewish joy. And Unorthodox is the debut novel by Heidi Shertox. The heroine Penina is an Orthodox Jew who match makers send her on dates with not best pickings because she can’t have kids. But then her boss Sam Kleinfield comes into the picture. Sam is Jewish but he’s not Orthodox.

Sam starts out as a bit of a jerk but then Penina isn’t exactly the friendliest to him. But for me he quickly grew on me and became one of my favorite fictional heroes. And he delivers one of my favorite lines in chapter seventeen of the book. Why does it seem like all the best guys are fictional?

 

I received a copy of this book from the publisher through netgalley. I was not required to write a positive review. All opinions expressed are mine alone.

Kissing Kosher by Jean Meltzer review

Title: Kissing Kosher

 

Author: Jean Meltzer

Ch: 47

Pg: 400

Genre: Jewish Rom Com

Rating: 5 stars

Publisher: MIRA

In Kissing Kosher Jean Meltzer does it again. She gives a book with Jewish joy and romance and quite frankly we need more books about Jewish joy. This one is her steamiest book to date but it’s still lower on the spice level. But as some who like Aitval suffers from chronic pelvic pain though mine is from endometriosis this romance was right up my alley. Where can I get an Ethan.

Ethan’s not perfect. I mean he ends up in her life because of a lie. But he takes the time to learn in order to make things better for her. Too bad he’s fictional.

Kissing Kosher also gives delicious sounding Kosher baked goods. Rival bakery families what’s not to love. Now this book also includes medical cannabis that might not be for everyone, but it works with the story.

And I just have to say thanks Jean Meltzer for giving me a heroine with pelvic pain in romance and s rom com and a hero who loves her for her.
