4.5 stars — Wow, this book was an intense rollercoaster ride. And I mean that in more than one way. The book started off solidly, I was pretty hooked and intrigued. Then I had some…concerns and my interest was kinda conditional (I’ll get there). BUT!!! Then the plot fucking took off and I was all […]
3.5 stars — This book had a super strong start, I was so intrigued by both characters, I connected with them, and I was excited to see them break through each other’s walls. And for the most part, I got great stuff…but for me, it dragged a bit and I got impatient with our MCs. […]
4 stars — In some ways this book was really easy to read. There wasn’t a lot of conflict, just bits here and there. It was kind of nice to get a lot of happy getting together time. They resisted and resisted because of their pasts, but once they gave in I really enjoyed seeing them […]
4.5 stars — Well shit…I think maybe I do like historical romance. At least when it’s in the right hands. And look at that, I’ve added another author to my list. Seriously though, I really really really enjoyed this! Minnie was a delightful heroine — so complex. She was bright, could be feisty, down to […]
4.5 stars — Wow, this one really surprised me! I don’t even know why exactly, it’s not like I had low expectations necessarily. I think I was a bit wary of it initially based on not knowing what happened to Serena until part way through (not usually a fan). But I just kept getting sucked […]
4 stars — I wasn’t sure how I was going to appreciate this book with their initial antagonistic relationship…especially because I just finished a book recently where it played a large role in not being a fave. And it’s not going to be a Sarah Mayberry fave either, but for some reason I could tolerate their […]

4 stars — I’m in a weird reading funk, so I won’t count out that that affected this review. But once I finally gathered my lady bits and just sunk into the book, I was captivated and curious. Part of that was getting to return to a place that I already love filled with people […]
3.5 stars — I might not have been in the right mood to start this one. Raquel kind of left me a bit lost with who she was. She was hung up a lot on how quirky she was, and hiding her quirkiness, and I’m sure we’ll find out more in the main novel, but […]
