4 stars — Am I the only one that loves when the grump is the heroine and the sunshine is the hero?? Willow was actually as badass as everyone told her she was — I really admired her. She was really down to earth, and while she had a lot of things going on with her, […]
3 stars — Huh. I remember loving the first book, but this one felt like it was missing something. I almost DNF’d it because it just wasn’t pulling me in, but I really wanted to finish another series for my challenge, and it was only 200 pages… Honestly, the characters had some great moments/qualities, but […]
3.5 stars — I was worried about starting this book, b/c I was getting over COVID and I didn’t want my brain fog to ruin my reading experience, you know? But I should have trusted Ms. Bowen more, she seems to be able to cut through so much of that and always suck me in. Vera […]
3.5 stars — If you’ve missed the Hashtag series, and want something extremely similar, then you are going to love this story. While for me it didn’t have the same connections and chemistry as #Nerd, it was still entertaining. NOTE: if you have triggers, please please search out trigger warnings for this book (there is […]
4.5 stars — Characters are my bread and butter, and Charli and Neil are some of the best there is. Obviously both very complicated, but at their very core, absolute rock star people. Behind all of Charli’s bluster and anger, there’s a very damaged young woman. She is definitely the product of her upbringing, and it […]
4 stars — This was a solid sports romance. I think I would have enjoyed it more if I’d had the time to just binge listen to it, but alas I kept having longer breaks between spurts of listening, so it was hard to stay super sucked in. The narrators were fantastic. I feel like I […]
4.5 stars — Well, to say this book surprised me would be an understatement. I did *NOT* like Sean for the first little bit of the book. I mean, I wasn’t supposed to, but I know some readers enjoy jerks more than others…I tend to have little patience for them. And Sean was a D […]
3.5 stars — Hmmm…after rereading my review for book 2, it looks like this series might feel the same for me: good, but not great. I think this can happen a lot with author’s earlier works. This one had a pretty strong start, and I didn’t even mind the quick move to steamy scenes…sometimes that […]
4.5 stars — What a great start to a new series! I haven’t even finished all of the Cold Fury books, but I’m down with these Vengeance boys. I actually started the audio first, and honestly I was feeling bummed because it didn’t seem like Bishop was my kind of hero. But either my mood […]
4.5 stars — This book actually delighted me in quite a few ways. And I’m giving it a half star bump for great hockey depiction. I’m not an expert, but as someone who watches hockey quite a bit, it rang truer than most hockey books do. I was surprised by all that was lying in Josh’s […]
