Christmas Kitsch by Amy Lane

Christmas Kitsch by Amy Lane

4.5 stars — I love it when a book just hits. There were lots of little things that reminded me strongly of The Locker Room, but not so much that it felt like a regurgitated story — this one was all its own.  It was just things like *how* Rusty struggled with his parents neglect…and […]

Homecoming King by Penny Reid

Homecoming King by Penny Reid

4.5 stars — This review is going to be a bit all over the place…it happens sometimes, and sometimes it’s just too hard to wrangle my brain in order, so I leave it. Abby delighted me.  She was wonderfully quirky and odd. I wish this story had been dual POV, but I suppose I can […]

Holiday by Candlelight by Laurel Greer

Holiday by Candlelight by Laurel Greer

3.5 stars — While I really enjoyed how unique this book was, I found all the conflict and strife to be a bit hard on my heart.  It was real, but I’m just not as into that much push and pull I guess.  It’s like, we had 2 characters who were both struggling with the […]

The Holiday Switch by Tif Marcelo

The Holiday Switch by Tif Marcelo

3.5 stars —  This book did not start off strong.  Neither of our main characters were all that endearing, especially at the start.  Lila was uptight, overreactive, comes across a bit like a bitch, can be judgey.  You don’t get to see a lot of her good qualities off the bat.  But luckily I was […]

Just for the Holidays… by Adriana Herrera

Just for the Holidays… by Adriana Herrera

4 stars — Well this was a solid second chance celebrity romance!  I have quite a few books by Ms. Herrera in my collection, but surprisingly this is the first I’ve read (if you don’t count hearing her read from her book at an event).  I kind of love that Harlequin is really embracing the […]

Twelve Dates of Christmas by Laurel Greer

Twelve Dates of Christmas by Laurel Greer

4.5 stars — Well that was a delightfully cute and sexy Christmas read.  We got a bit of an enemies to lovers feel, but the kind that I like where they just push and pull against each other, but part of it stems from their attraction, and the fighting doesn’t last.  You know, enemies light. […]

The Twelve Nights of Christmas by Sarah Morgan

The Twelve Nights of Christmas by Sarah Morgan

3.5 stars — Well, huh.  I started off this one and could totally see what 2010’s Lenore was attracted to, but I just don’t have patience for that anymore.  So I was annoyed by the book, but still couldn’t put it down.  I expected it to end very meh.  But then, despite the persistent toxic […]

Christmas in the City by Various Authors

Christmas in the City by Various Authors

OVERALL: 4 stars — Huh, this was actually a really solid anthology.  Pretty great Christmas vibes (some more than others), solid romances, lots of variety.  Obviously I enjoyed some more than others, but there wasn’t one I didn’t connect with at least a little, which is kind of rare for anthologies! JUST THE TIP by […]

Ice Planet Holiday by Ruby Dixon

Ice Planet Holiday by Ruby Dixon

4 stars — Well that was a very satisfying novella!  It was odd going back to a book set so much earlier in the series, and seeing characters I haven’t read about as much.  It was also weird reading it and not listening to it.  😛 I loved seeing them set up this “holiday”, and […]
