Catch and Release Groom by Cindi Madsen

Catch and Release Groom by Cindi Madsen

4 stars — I can always count on Ms. Madsen to deliver fun characters, with a good amount of sass and just enough depth to keep me interested and invested. Easton was pretty grumpy to begin with, but at least I could somewhat understand how he’d become jaded, and how the circumstances around Imogen just […]

The Wolf and the Wildflower by Stacy Reid

The Wolf and the Wildflower by Stacy Reid

4 stars — There were parts of this book that I absolutely loved, but I think I spent a lot of time thinking of gender identity and all that that encompasses, and while this touched on that to some degree, particularly the paths that were open to women in this time period vs all the […]

A Matter of Temptation by Stacy Reid

A Matter of Temptation by Stacy Reid

4.5 stars — This was utterly delightful.  Honestly, the happy moments between Mina and Simon were just so freaking good, I just wanted to read them over and over. You could genuinely feel the connection between these two.  From their initial intrigue, to crush, to fascination, to lust, to more.  It was just…so good. I […]

A Scoundrel of Her Own by Stacy Reid

A Scoundrel of Her Own by Stacy Reid

4.5 stars — Well, I am entirely addicted to these books. This one had some parallels to another historical I read that I ended up being disappointed in…and this book basically did all the things I was hoping for with the other one. We have a wonderful prologue that I was not expecting, and it […]

Her Wicked Marquess by Stacy Reid

Her Wicked Marquess by Stacy Reid

4.5 stars — Oh wow, that was a ride from start to finish. It’s funny, b/c I am not a fan of domineering males…or villainous ones.  And I’m not saying that Nicolas was necessarily either of those things, but he was definitely a shades of gray kind of hero.  And all I can say is […]

My Darling Duke by Stacy Reid

My Darling Duke by Stacy Reid

4.5 stars — You know what I love??  Truly good main characters, who, despite their flaws and missteps, I still can’t help but love.  And yeah, I DEFINITELY loved Alexander and Kitty. I marked this one as a fairy tale retelling, but it is VERY loose.  They even mention the story in the story, which […]

Set to Music by Negeen Papehn

Set to Music by Negeen Papehn

3 stars — *Maybe* 3.5, but not sure if I just wanted to like it more, you know?  I was pretty excited about this one, b/c a) I LOVE celebrity romances; and b) ownvoices diversity!!  But if I’m being honest, I struggled to get into this one…and keep reading.  If it hadn’t been a NetGalley, […]

The Mistletoe Trap by Cindi Madsen

The Mistletoe Trap by Cindi Madsen

4.5 stars — You know what?  This was the perfect book to kick off my holiday reading season.  It was adorable and hilarious, with a good mix of heart and emotion. Julie and Gavin were just gold together.  I loved the relationship they had as friends as the book starts, and ADORE the way their […]
