I love the friends to lovers trope, so when I read the blurb for this one I eagerly waited for it to hit my kindle.Β If only the story lived up to the hype I created. Natalie and Aidan are childhood friends.Β He was the one constant growing up that understood the facade she put […]
When August Ends is one of those slow burn books.Β I spent the majority of the book wondering if Noah and Heather were ever going to act on the obvious sexual tension between them. I could understand Noah’s resistance to being anything more than friends with Heather.Β Noah was letting his past dictate his future […]
Oh….this book should come with a warning label.Β Someone should have warned me that I was going to need emotional support over the course of this book along with a box of tissues to periodically mop myself up.Β So for those chomping at the bit to read this title be sure to do a little […]
I havenβt enjoyed an Elle Kennedy book like this in a long time. Β Jake and Beeβs relationship took me back to the Off-Campus books (which I loved) and reminded me why I love Elle Kennedy hockey books. Jake, whoβs the captain of the Harvard hockey team, and Bee, daughter of Briarβs head hockey coach, should […]
It pains me to say this book by Louise Bay was not one of my favorites.Β I’m not sure if it was the characters themselves or just the fact that the yachting life didn’t connect with me.Β But I did find the story moved a bit slowly and the romance for this couple just didn’t […]
Carrie Aarons is one of my go-to authors.Β I discovered her through Kindle Unlimited a few years ago and now I immediately grab whatever book she’s releasing and devour it.Β I had that same feeling with DOWN WE’LL COME, BABY and couldn’t wait to immerse myself in Imogen and Theo’s story. Imogen and Theo’s story […]
I am a huge fan of Vi Keeland.Β I love the flawed characters she creates and the wonderful stories they live in.Β That said, We Shouldn’t wasn’t one of my favorites and it’s mainly because of the characters. Bennett and Annalise are vying for the same job, but the minute these two meet Bennett is […]
I really enjoyed this installment in the Royally series.Β Queen Lenora was such a hard-ass to her grandsons, but it was a special treat to be able to look back and what made Lenora who she was. Being a princess and the heir to a country did not afford Lenora the kind of childhood others […]
I’ve enjoyed the Ascension series, but I had a hard time reconnecting with the characters in this entry into the series.Β Cyrene was the hardest, especially because of her interest in random boys that show up in the books.Β She loved Edric, kinda had a thing for Kael, was engaged to Dean, kinda still had […]
I’ve enjoyed this series, but Kristen Callihan gives us something special with Fall. If you’ve read this series, you know what happened with Jax two years ago and what that did to Kill John.Β Finally, we get to see how John is dealing with his life and trying to make changes.Β It’s clearly not as […]
It’s been a while since I read a Prescott Lane book and I’m so glad I picked this book to get back into her list of books. Childhood friends, stalwart supporter and unrequitedΒ love drew me in, but this incredible story proves how a spark of an idea or even a carefully placed word can change […]
The truth comes out in this one and it’s a really hard pill for Cora to swallow.Β But Cora has this amazing resiliency that helps her push through her pain to focus on keeping herself and her girls safe.Β Things don’t always turn out the way she plans, but you never have to wonder why […]
This was a guilty pleasure read for me. I laughed at Marlee and really wished she was real (weβd totally be BFFs). Gavin was easy to love and I could understand why Marlee fell for him.Β I enjoyed their building relationship and how Gavin knew what he had with Marlee and was willing to give […]
I wanted to like this book much more than I did.Β I wanted the truth about the accident to become a catalyst for the town to discover they have been wrong about Cole from the time his family moved to the town.Β But that didn’t happen.Β Cole’s uncle, at the very end and on the […]
Penelope Ward once again took something most would find shady and managed to find a love story in it. Ryder and Eden definitely came from opposite worlds, but their unconventional meeting and conversations led to them building a friendship without the trappings one would find through a traditional date or casual meeting.Β They could use […]
