Book Review
Under Pressure by Hannah Cowan
Beckett Rourke absolutely knocked it out of the park for me. Is he a little cheesy? Yes. Does the way his ass looks in tight baseball pants more than make up for it? Also yes. But underneath all that shameless flirting, ridiculous confidence, and baseball-player charm is a man who is completely, hopelessly gone for…
Playing the Backbeat by Jane Hayes
(ARC Read) Playing the Backbeat was my first Jane Hayes book, so I wasn’t entirely sure what to expect. What I found was a roommates-to-lovers romance overflowing with witty banter, laugh-out-loud humor, and some of the sweetest, most genuine moments between two people simply learning how to be there for each other. That balance is…
Unexpected Shot by Chelle Sloan
(ARC Read) I had a bit of a love-hate relationship with this book… and by that, I mean I spent the first half wanting to lovingly shake Shelby until she opened her eyes. Shelby is the blackest black cat I’ve read in a long time, and she drove me absolutely crazy for the first half…
In Stormy Weather by Chelsea Curto
There are some authors who earn your trust, and then there are authors who somehow keep raising the bar every single time they release a book. After Face Off, I honestly didn’t think Chelsea Curto could write another story I’d love just as much. I was wrong. In Stormy Weather isn’t just another rivals-to-lovers romance….
The Secret by Ava Sutton
(ARC Read) There is just something about a hero who has been quietly in love for years that gets me every single time, and Aston Griffith had me from page one. The setup for this book could have easily been filled with unnecessary drama, but Ava Sutton handled it so well. Aston isn’t torn because…
Tethered Love by Ann Einerson
(ARC Read) There are some books you spend an entire series waiting for, hoping they’ll live up to the expectations you’ve built in your head. Tethered Love didn’t just meet mine—it blew right past them. After all the teasing, tension, and buildup between Heath and Charlie throughout the Silver Saddle Ranch series, I was desperate…
Cinder by Hailey Rodger
It’s been over twenty-four hours since I finished Cinder, and I’m still carrying it around with me. The grief. The hope. The joy. The ache. Some books break your heart just to see if they can put it back together again, and somehow this one managed to do exactly that. I know it because I’d…
It’s About Time by Harlow James
(ARC Read) I don’t know what I expected from Elliot Thorne, but it definitely wasn’t that mouth. After spending the first few books thinking he was uptight, broody, and honestly kind of frustrating, Harlow James completely changed my mind. Beneath the tailored suits and grumpy lawyer exterior is a fiercely loyal man carrying around more…
Trying Not To Love You by Kaylee Ryan
(ARC Read) Kaylee Ryan is officially back in her small-town romance era, and I am LIVING for it! There’s just something about returning to a small town where everyone knows your history, where first love never really stays in the past, and where every missed opportunity somehow feels even bigger. Trying Not to Love You…
Endless Summer Nights by Willow Aster
(ARC Read) Second-chance romances can be messy, emotional, and frustrating in all the best ways, and Endless Summer Nights reminded me exactly why they’ve become one of my favorite tropes. Willow Aster has created another story that pulls you right back into Windy Harbor, and I honestly didn’t want to leave. Five years after Lola…
