With You Forever by Chloe Liese

With You Forever by Chloe Liese

4.5 stars — This one just hit for me.  There was something about Axel and Rooney that had me captivated even from the previous books.  They are such a study in contrasts in some ways, but seeing them find safety in one another was so rewarding. I feel like I got a completely different impression […]

Would I Lie to the Duke by Eva Leigh

Would I Lie to the Duke by Eva Leigh

4.5 stars — This one felt both very different from historical romances I’ve read so far, but also not.  There was just something refreshing and frank about Jess, and I loved her. Ms. Kingsley did a great job with the narration.  Occasionally I had a moment of not knowing who was speaking, but generally it […]

Role Playing by Cathy Yardley

Role Playing by Cathy Yardley

4.5 stars — I kind of avoided this book b/c I was afraid it wouldn’t live up to my expectations, but the funny thing is that my expectations were kind of wrong in some ways, and it took me to places I wasn’t expecting but that seriously delighted me.  So the lesson is: stop procrastinating […]

Jasper Vale by Devney Perry

Jasper Vale by Devney Perry

4.5 stars — This one started off solid, and I definitely enjoyed the wildness that was their night in Vegas.  Things got a little sticky after that for a bit, but I was still enjoying myself.  But at a certain point about halfway through the book it just really shot up, and I loved the […]

Awkward Love by Riley Hart

Awkward Love by Riley Hart

4.5 stars — OK, this one was absolutely fucking adorable, and I loved it from start to finish. Jameson was so cute and awkward and nerdy, he was just delightful.  He was also brilliant, thoughtful, and caring. Honestly?  Will was the surprise hero for me.  He had that facade of cockiness, just like his friend […]

Stupid Love by Riley Hart

Stupid Love by Riley Hart

4.5 stars — This one started out cute, but I also wasn’t necessarily connecting with their bantering as well as I’d hoped…it was a 3.5 star type book.  But about half way through this book totally skyrocketed into 5 star territory for me, and I loved the ending!  So I settled on something in between. […]

Cheating Death by April White

Cheating Death by April White

4.5 stars — This was a seriously solid series ender!  While there are a few things that I ponder over, in general it wrapped things up really well, answering questions and setting everything into a good position where I can imagine this world continuing on. Saira really felt like she came into her own throughout […]

Always Only You by Chloe Liese

Always Only You by Chloe Liese

4.5 stars — Wow, this one was both eye opening and adorable!  I definitely loved it a lot more than book 1, and I don’t know if it was switching to ebook over audiobook, or if these characters were just more Lenore characters.  I have a feeling it was a good dose of both of […]

Fourth Wing by Rebecca Yarros

Fourth Wing by Rebecca Yarros

4.5 stars — Uh oh.  This is going to be one of those reviews.  I genuinely don’t know how to write this one, because I’m still sitting over hear absorbing it…and recovering from a crying headache, that was probably worse than it should have been but what can I say?  I’m on my period. I […]
