Give Love a Chai by Nanxi Wen

Give Love a Chai by Nanxi Wen

3.5 stars — Huh.  This story didn’t play out at all like I was expecting.  Which is not a bad thing necessarily, but it may not have been as good a fit for me. Andrew and Tia’s relationship was more volatile than I was expecting.  I know there are all different types of relationships out […]

Heartscape by Garrett Leigh

Heartscape by Garrett Leigh

4 stars — I can’t seem to get my thoughts in order.  I fucking hate that.  So I apologize if this review feels a bit scattered. I definitely felt a lot more connection between Tanner and Jax.  I loved the way they connected, and that while there were a few obstacles in their way, in […]

Get a Life, Chloe Brown by Talia Hibbert

Get a Life, Chloe Brown by Talia Hibbert

4.5 stars — I don’t even know where to begin you guys.  I adored it.  Like I could feel the stupid grin spreading across my face and couldn’t stop it kind of adored it.  Like I cried near the end because I’m stupidly emotional adored it. It started off feeling a bit enemies to lovers-ish […]

Princess Brides Bundle by Jane Porter

Princess Brides Bundle by Jane Porter

ORIGINAL REVIEW: 3.5 stars — I saw Malik and Nicolette mentioned in one of Ms. Porter’s more recent books, and had to dig around in my kindle so I could reread this. It didn’t disappoint. I LOVED the chemistry and banter between Nic and Malik…some of their conversations had me cracking up! And I enjoyed […]

Highland Sword by May McGoldrick

Highland Sword by May McGoldrick

3.5 stars — While I still enjoyed this book, I will admit I didn’t connect with it and get sucked in as much as I’d hoped.  I think I’m likely to be pretty picky with my historical romances.  I think I was thrown off by all the political things going on not quite in the […]

Lennon Reborn by Scarlett Cole

Lennon Reborn by Scarlett Cole

4.5 stars — Well, that was another emotionally loaded book!  It was a fantastic end to what has been an emotionally charged series full of characters that make me feel so much. Lennon was both not at all what I was expecting, and yet made total sense at the same time.  I think that was […]

Elliott Redeemed by Scarlett Cole

Elliott Redeemed by Scarlett Cole

4.5 stars — Well, that was an emotional rollercoaster that I devoured.  I seriously ended up biking way past my goal time because I was so absorbed, gotta love that! I don’t know what expectations I had for Elliott, but I don’t remember being as excited for his story as some of the others.  And […]

The Purest Hook by Scarlett Cole

The Purest Hook by Scarlett Cole

4 stars — I don’t know, this one just worked for me.  I really loved that even though Dred and Pixie were seriously SO DIFFERENT, there was an undeniable connection and attraction between them that they couldn’t help exploring. This book definitely suffered from moments where I was like “OMG, investigate that!  Doesn’t that seem crazy??”  […]

Nocturnal by Chelsea M. Cameron

Nocturnal by Chelsea M. Cameron

ORIGINAL REVIEW: 4.5 stars — I must say that this book broke the mold for me for paranormal romance. For one, the romance was really slow and in some ways more realistic b/c it started out with an innate curiosity about the other…something that tugged them together, for reasons they could not explain, and made […]

Lies & Lullabies by Sarina Bowen

Lies & Lullabies by Sarina Bowen

4.5 stars — I told Brett that this one was an amalgamation of some of my favourite tropes: secret identity, secret baby, celebrity…even a bit of second chance.  And it fulfilled everything I love about those tropes and more.  Basically, Lenore was a happy reader…well, listener. Jonas was NOTHING like I was expecting for a […]
