Crazy In Love by Laura Pavlov
(ARC Review) Laura Pavlov has done it again—Crazy In Love is a small-town romance that hit me right in the heart. As the fourth book in the Rosewood River series, it has everything I’ve come to expect from this world: sharp banter, girl gang moments, and a couple whose journey feels emotional, raw, and ultimately…
Nothing Less Than Everything by Maggie Gates
This has officially become a new favorite for me, and Tatum just might be my new top book boyfriend. The story truly lives up to its title, because with Wren and Tatum, it was nothing less than everything. Wren Porter is living a double life of sorts. She’s an interior designer by day and a…
Sweet Temptation by Bella Matthews
I’ve never typed a review this quickly. I’d give it six stars if I could. I had to get everything out before the memory of how it felt slipped away. I read it straight through, unable to stop. The sadness, the hope, the longing, the ache, the joy, the quiet fulfillment, and in the middle…
Chasing Forever by Piper Rayne
This book was pure heaven; a love story years in the making, if only Brooks can finally stick the landing. Brooks Watson has carried a torch for Lottie Owens for most of his life. But when his brother left her standing in a wedding dress, humiliated in the middle of town, Brooks knew he might…
Dead Rinker by Ruth Stilling
Ruth Stilling has firmly secured her place on my must-read list. I can always count on her to deliver a story I can dive into with complete confidence, knowing I’ll come away more than satisfied. Her books are a perfect mix of angst, spice, and heart, and Dead Rinker is no exception. It delivers all…
Goal Line by Julia Connors
I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again: childhood best friends to lovers is the best trope. Luke and Eva are a great example why this trope works so well. They have history. They have trust. They have inside jokes and corny stories they can use against each other. They have unconditional love and…
Fear of Love by Kenadee Bryant
This may just be my favorite girl gang read ever. When I say this book takes the top prize in the found family category, I truly mean it. I have never felt more wrapped up in a group of friends than I did while reading Kenadee Bryant’s upcoming release, Fear of Love. There were so…
Before We Came by Sloane St. James
Wow. Just…wow. When I turned the final page, I had to sit with my feelings for over an hour, completely overwhelmed, not even sure what I was feeling, only that I was feeling everything and I needed to feel it. I’ve never read anything quite like this. It wasn’t whiplash exactly, but there were so…
The Grump Next Door by Brighton Walsh
I fell completely head over heels for this story. As my first Brighton Walsh read, it certainly sets the tone for all her other books to follow. Everything about this book hit just right for me: the spice, the tender found-family dynamic, Sutton’s fierce independence, Laurel’s quiet longing for a father figure she didn’t even…
Change of Hart by Bailey Hannah
I feel like I’ve just run an emotional marathon—my mind and heart are exhausted, but in the best possible way. That’s what the best books do: they pull you in, make you feel like you’re right there in the trenches with the characters, and only let you go when the time is right. It’s all-consuming,…
