The Family You Make by Jill Shalvis

The Family You Make by Jill Shalvis

4.5 stars — I don’t know if it was the contrast with the previous book I read, but I was immediately captured by Jane and Levi’s story.  Part of that is the situation at the start, talk about intense!!  And part of that was just the easy depth and dimension of our characters from the […]

Holiday Queen by Claire Marti

Holiday Queen by Claire Marti

2.5 stars — Welp, these freebies can often be a toss up, and this time I just ended up on the wrong side of the coin flip.  Sometimes you find a new author to love, and sometimes it just doesn’t match.  This was the latter. If I hadn’t been desperate to try to achieve my […]

Legend by Sawyer Bennett

Legend by Sawyer Bennett

4 stars — It was fun to get back to these hockey books by Sawyer Bennett.  There are definitely elements that I love, and elements that I could do with less of, but regardless they are always entertaining and easy. I was truly expecting this one to have more of the enemies to lovers aspect […]

Until It Fades by K.A. Tucker

Until It Fades by K.A. Tucker

4 stars — Ha!  I started this one stupidly at 1am when we had been out late and I couldn’t fall asleep right away thinking I would just read a chapter or two…next thing I know it’s 4am, and I’m forcing myself to put it down.  The same thing happened the next night.  So to […]

I’m Your Guy by Sarina Bowen

I’m Your Guy by Sarina Bowen

4 stars — There were a few aspects/moments in this story where I had my reservations, but about a gagillion others where I was just grinning and so fucking happy with the romance. It was nice to be listening to the duo of Mr. Hamilton and Mr. Morgan again as narrators.  They were my first […]

Book Lovers by Emily Henry

Book Lovers by Emily Henry

4.5 stars — So here’s the thing.  A lot of this book was 4 stars, or 4.5 rounded down maybe.  But when I got to the end, there were just so many things that HIT with me, that I’m rounding up and I don’t even care. Here’s another thing: I’m not sure I would have […]

The True Love Experiment by Christina Lauren

The True Love Experiment by Christina Lauren

4.5 stars — I’m not sure what I was expecting from Fizzy’s book, but this wasn’t it…in the BEST possible way. Fizzy was delightfully exuberant, unapologetically herself, totally sex positive, and yet lost in such a unique way.  I’m sure I’ve read a heroine like her, but trust me when I say it’s rare.  I […]

Love in Tune by Bria Quinlan

Love in Tune by Bria Quinlan

3 stars — Knowing this was in one of those charity anthologies before helped me to know what to expect — which is a short story, not even a novella.  Just a fun little taste.  And it went okay. The problem was that I didn’t really fully understand the conflict between Melissa and Kyle, like […]
