Review - A Night of No Regrets / Regretting You Movie


I went to the A Night of No Regrets event for the Regretting You movie on Thursday (10/23). If you're a fan of Colleen Hoover and the book, it's a must see. If you're a fan of movies, it's a must see. 

Before the movie started we got to see behind-the-scene clips, and a Q&A that was moderated by Amanda Hirsch from the https://www.notskinnybutnotfat.com Podcast. She chatted with Director Josh Boone (who also directed The Fault In Our Stars), and actors Allison Williams (who played Morgan), Mckenna Grace (who played Clara), Mason Thames (who played Miller), and Dave Franco (who played Jonah). We also got to listen to a few songs from Hannah Cohen, who is on the soundtrack. 

For those of you not familiar with the book, here's the synopsis:

Morgan Grant and her sixteen-year-old daughter, Clara, would like nothing more than to be nothing alike.

Morgan is determined to prevent her daughter from making the same mistakes she did. By getting pregnant and married way too young, Morgan put her own dreams on hold. Clara doesn’t want to follow in her mother’s footsteps. Her predictable mother doesn’t have a spontaneous bone in her body.

With warring personalities and conflicting goals, Morgan and Clara find it increasingly difficult to coexist. The only person who can bring peace to the household is Chris—Morgan’s husband, Clara’s father, and the family anchor. But that peace is shattered when Chris is involved in a tragic and questionable accident. The heartbreaking and long-lasting consequences will reach far beyond just Morgan and Clara.

While struggling to rebuild everything that crashed around them, Morgan finds comfort in the last person she expects to, and Clara turns to the one boy she’s been forbidden to see. With each passing day, new secrets, resentment, and misunderstandings make mother and daughter fall further apart. So far apart, it might be impossible for them to ever fall back together.

Now, on to the movie. I thought they did a fabulous job of bringing Regretting You to life. There were so many emotions. I laughed, cried, laughed again, and sobbed. I absolutely loved it. I highly recommend you go see it! Just remember the tissues.

After the movie, we got the most adorable bracelet, some cute stickers, and poster (pictures below). 




I had such a great time! Thank you to @RegrettingYouMovie and @ParamountFilms for a great and memorable night.

Lucky Shot by K. Bromberg


Lucky Shot is a spicy bad boy/good girl, close proximity, sports romance from New York Times bestselling author, K. Bromberg.



Our first meeting? He stood me up.
Our second chance encounter? I told him exactly what I thought of him.
Our third? It came with a bet (he lost) and an understanding that we’re stuck with one another.

It doesn’t matter that he’s Alexander Hardy—British soccer star extraordinaire, world-famous in every way, and a certified sex symbol. We come from two different worlds and live in two different realities. But all we need is one month.

The bet: Help him rehab his reputation to the media and the masses, and in exchange, he’ll help my soccer academy and the underprivileged kids who idolize him.

That doesn’t mean I have to like him. Not his delicious accent, his sexy smirk or those storm cloud gray eyes. Not his incredibly fit body or his sinfully dirty mouth. Not even the way he shows up day after day for the kids or the way he looks at me like he wants to devour me.

He looks at time spent in my world as a penance, while I look at it as a way to leverage his star power to help my academy survive.

But as the days turn to weeks, it seems we’re not as different as I once thought. The man who cares about no one, has fixed his sights on me. With his time at my academy up and his obligations back home calling, do we have a lucky shot of working out?

Lucky Shot was such a great story. I absolutely loved it. The chemistry between Whitney and Hardy was perfect. I laughed, I cried, I didn't want to put it down. Highly recommend!
