I wasn't sure that I was loving this until I turned the last page and realized that I had devoured it in one sitting and was SUPER upset that I'd be left with that CLIFFHANGER for two months. The only thing cliffhangers are good for is telling you just how invested you are in a... Continue Reading →

This was really cute, so I wish it hadn't been so... boring. It's way too long, all of their feelings are way too internalized, and the dating gimmick was way too drawn out. I liked both characters and I liked their connection, I just wish there had been a stronger emphasis on that. It's sort... Continue Reading →

Short and sexy with just the right amount of holiday sweetness, this felt very much like one of Bladon’s romances. It also felt a little rough around the edges, with some inconsistencies and a few issues that left me scratching my head. It’s still an enjoyable, entertaining read, but certainly not on the same level... Continue Reading →

Full disclosure? Seeing the words "friends with benefits" in a book about two people who are clearly in love with each other makes my skin crawl. And the premeditated, “this is totally going to work” kind takes that up a notch. So that kept me from fully connecting to this otherwise sweet and steamy, heartfelt... Continue Reading →

It was good, but it wasn't great. The first two books in this multi-author series set the bar VERY high, and unfortunately this just wasn't at the same level. I liked it, and the chemistry was sizzling, but it was lacking the same depth of emotion that the other two had. This couple goes from... Continue Reading →

Playful, funny, and easy to devour in one sitting, this holiday novella is kinda exactly what I expected it to be. It's got the banter and dialogue that Ney is known for, and the same kind of feel as this writing duo's other holiday novella, Kissmas Eve. This isn't a complete love story, but it... Continue Reading →

This gets five stars for entertainment value, because while there were definitely things about it that turned me off, I was hooked. It's sexy and kinda dirty, a little over the top, and a lot of fun. I loved the tension and the dynamic between these two - their relationship begins in a wholly unique... Continue Reading →

So, I'm pretty sure that driving across the country with two strange men, one of whom JUST got out of prison, during a pandemic - because, yes, this is set in present day - and then throwing yourself at the ex-con is a HORRIBLE idea. You won't convince me otherwise. BUT, that doesn't mean this... Continue Reading →

This is what I call an ALMOST 5-star read. I thoroughly enjoyed it from start to finish - Jamieson always writes great sports romances, and this features interesting, compelling characters. The overall tone is sweet, mellow, and laidback, but still very steamy, and it's light enough to devour in one sitting with a smile on... Continue Reading →

Well, this went very differently than I expected! Yes, it's definitely got the feel of your typical single dad/nanny romance, but this is much more a second chance at love after loss kind of story, with a heavier, more serious storyline than anticipated. It got a little slow for me in the middle, but there's... Continue Reading →

After a stellar first book in this series, I just... expected more from this. At its core, it's a steamy, fun, friends to lovers rom com with all of the banter and chemistry I've come to love from Hunter's work. I loved the history and the depth of the relationship between these two, and it's... Continue Reading →

Sentimental and sweet (but still oh so sexy), this friends to lovers romance is more understated than a lot of Quinn's work. It leans towards being angsty, with a focus on healing - of friendships, of hearts, of fears. I love a good road trip romance and this is exactly that, following these two childhood... Continue Reading →

There's no doubt about it: this is sexy Christmas fun! This lighthearted romance is not your average holiday read; it brings the steam early on before settling into a sweet and sassy Scrooge story. Do I wish they hadn't hit the sheets so quickly? Absolutely. This womanizing tool of a hero got his girl way... Continue Reading →

This opens with the kind of magnetic chemistry that makes you want to clear your schedule and dive in for a full day of reading. I loved that immediate connection, and it kicked off a great first half to this unexpected pregnancy romance. The storyline is a mix of light, sexy, and emotional, leading with... Continue Reading →

My brain hurts. A lot. And I THINK in a good way. It would be easy to assign this a rating based on the success of the romance in this (hint: it would NOT be favorable), but that's really, really not what this is. It's psychological, paranormal, and boundary-pushing. The quality of the writing is... Continue Reading →

A little nice and a lot naughty, this festive romance is a mix of spicy and sweet. It's Christmas-themed throughout (yes, even the steamy scenes), and will bring you some holiday cheer. I was surprised by just how quickly this story flew by, and it was a nice, festive treat. While I never fully connected... Continue Reading →

Forgettable, that's how I'd describe this one. It's not bad, but not all that compelling either, and I'm probably going to forget the plot in a few days. Essentially, this moves at such a rapid pace that there's no time to settle into the story and actually connect with the couple. It's only a little... Continue Reading →

Loved this hero! This was actually pretty sweet and adorable, with a completely different kind of love story than I'm used to. This married couple already loves each other, and it's that deep love that only comes from years upon years together. Our hero has taken his relationship for granted, and it's only once he's... Continue Reading →

The sexual TENSION between these two is delicious, crackling with chemistry and waiting for the perfect moment to combust. I loved every bit of it. This forbidden romance will have you rooting for the bad guy, the man who wants nothing more than to end the relationship that he helped create - though there's a... Continue Reading →

A VERY solid start to a new series! I always seek out Stoker's books when I'm in the mood for some suspense, but this one brings the romance to the forefront and made me love the couple - before any action kicked in. The focus is definitely on our couple and the guilt our hero... Continue Reading →

Thoughts. I've got SO MANY thoughts about this book. There's a lot that I loved about it, from the focus on mental health and self-worth to the compassionate, steadfast hero. I loved the unique feel and the unpredictable storyline. But the romance suffered along the way. Two-thirds of the way into the book, I realized... Continue Reading →

WOW, talk about a build in intimacy. These two are hot for each other from the moment they meet, but love takes a little longer to happen. While I often struggle with that kind of storyline, Bromberg is such a master at writing those quiet, impactful moments of intimacy that this was compelling from start... Continue Reading →

Ever read a book that you know isn't bad, but you just don't love it? That's where I'm at with this one. After reading the first book in this series of interconnected standalones, I was intrigued enough to check out this story. But it sort of just felt like an endless loop of one or... Continue Reading →

I love Hart's snarky banter and the playful vibe of her books! This series might be my favorite from her; a return to the fun, devourable stories that I look forward to from this author. While I personally preferred the first book in this series of interconnected standalones (only because teenagers are dumb), this was... Continue Reading →
