Another Book, Another Destiny…
This is a fun and touching addition to Briton’s series with great characters, a heist-based storyline, and a lovely romance. I also loved the messages about grief, family, and acceptance. Iris is a great FMC. She’s blunt and says what she’s thinking, and she sometimes makes social blunders. She was treated differently her entire life … Continue reading Book Review: You Had Me at Heist by Christina Britton
I was really looking forward to reading Second Chance Prince, the third book in Sarah Bennett's Romancing the Dukes historical romance series. This is such a swoon-worthy series, and I was eager to read Roberta’s story and to learn more about Niki. He wasn't the most likable when we first met him in this series, … Continue reading Book Review: Second Chance Prince by Sara Bennett
I have mixed feelings about this story. I'm super bummed because I generally love this author's historical romances, but I didn't love the main characters or the love story. I really disliked how they spoke to each other. They hurled insults and hurtful comments, questioned each other's character, integrity, and more. It was too much … Continue reading Book Review: The Duke’s Got Mail by Samara Parish

I just couldn't put it down! I buddy read this with Leslie @ Books Are the New Black, and she … Continue reading Book Review: King of Ravens by Clare Sager
My Thoughts on Is This Real or Just Pretend? Emily Sullivan is one of my go-to historical romances, so I was thrilled to receive an advanced copy of Is This Real or Just Pretend? The story reminds me of a gender reversed Sabrina, which is one of my favorite romances from the 90s, and follows … Continue reading Book Review: Is This Real or Just Pretend by Emily Sullivan
All's Fair in Love and Pickleball is my first pickleball romance read, and it was so good! I loved the characters, found family, Dodgeball movie vibes, and the romance. The romance has a major grumpy/sunshine feel with a heap of fake dating on top. These are two of my favorite tropes, so the love story … Continue reading Book Review: All’s Fair in Love and Pickleball by Kate Spencer
So, this book made me realize several things. First, I love Julie Soto's writing style. From her contemporary romances to this debut dark romantasy, Soto's storytelling fully immerses me in her books. The descriptions, use of dialogue, imagery, and nuanced characters and relationships make her an auto-buy author (or, in this case, an auto-request on … Continue reading Book Review: Rose in Chains by Julie Soto
My Thoughts on A Wallflower's Guide to Viscounts and Vice: Manda Collins's new historical romance series begins with A Wallflower's Guide to Viscounts and Vice, and it's a fun blend of mystery and romance. The story follows a grumpy viscount and a sunshine spinster who find themselves in the middle of a kidnapping investigation, and … Continue reading Book Review: A Wallflower’s Guide to Viscounts and Vice by Manda Collins
