A Duke by Default by Alyssa Cole

A Duke by Default by Alyssa Cole

3.5 stars — I struggled with bits of this book, but on the whole it offered me so much. Portia was one of the biggest mix of conflicting traits I’ve ever seen.  She had moments where she was spunky AF, and I was all “YEAH!”  But then she would get into her head and would […]

Bridesmates by Sydney Smyth

Bridesmates by Sydney Smyth

4.5 stars — OK, I am officially a fan of audio novellas!!  Especially when they’re part of a subscription service.  They’re like little romance snacks.  I mean, this is my first one, but I’m going to blanket statement that shit. Teddy Hamilton was delightful as always.  And jesus, his Will voice?  SWOON. Cooper was pretty […]

Make Me Bad by R.S. Grey

Make Me Bad by R.S. Grey

4.5 stars — OMG, I seriously love this author.  And I love her even more when listening to her narrated by my favourite narrators.  This was a trifecta of goodness! Let’s start with the narrators.  Luci Christian is wholeheartedly one of my favourites.  She nails that spunky mixed with sweet.  And I’m not sure if […]

Blindsided by Victoria Denault

Blindsided by Victoria Denault

4 4.5 stars — If you’re a reader of my reviews, you know I’m suuuupppper picky about my enemies to lovers trope…  And honestly?  For the first 40-50% of this book I wasn’t sure if this one was going to work for me personally (like, I enjoyed it, but it wasn’t wowing me).  But damn, […]

Keeper by Amy Daws

4 stars — Maybe even 4.5, still deciding. Poppy’s poop jokes and that kind of humour felt out of place.  Don’t know why.  I’m not opposed to that humour, it just didn’t fit for me. I LOVED Poppy’s quirks and generally sunny outlook.  She was that strange mix of insecure and confident that I love […]

Claimed by the Rogue Billionaire by Trish Wylie

Claimed by the Rogue Billionaire by Trish Wylie

4 stars — Hey look!  I hadn’t read this one before!  For some reason I guess I assumed I’d read all the Harlequin Presents books I kept…I wonder what other ones are up there. ANYWAYS.  Trish Wylie is totally making my faves list.  She knows how to take normal Presents tropes and update them for […]

Roman and Jewel by Dana L. Davis

Roman and Jewel by Dana L. Davis

4 stars — You know what?  This felt like a delicious guilty pleasure YA read. I’m a huge Broadway fan, so this was like bonus good for me — I loved the look into a new Broadway show.  And not only that, but there were lots of references to other musicals, and it was just so […]
