Over the Moon by Laura Pavlov
Laura Pavlov’s Over the Moon delivers everything I crave in a contemporary romance, with just the right touch of sports drama. It’s got meddling family antics, sharp banter, sizzling chemistry, and a love story that builds slowly until it completely sweeps you away. Beckett Monroe should be on top of the world after a career-defining…
Protect by Paisley Hope
When I closed the final page of Protect, my chest felt both raw and full, with longing, with hope, with the ache of second chances earned hard. This isn’t just a reunion romance; it’s a vivid emotional journey that burned through grief and lit a path toward healing. Violette has built her life around two…
Ruled Out by Ruth Stilling
My emotions are raw, and I am unhinged. I can still feel my body recoiling from last night’s sobbing. Ruled Out didn’t just tell a story; it broke me open, scattered the pieces, and somehow stitched them back together. It’s heavy in all the ways that matter, weighted with trauma, redemption, and the kind of…
Weekend Reads Recap
I don’t know about you, but there’s something magical about a weekend that’s just wall-to-wall books. The kind where your coffee gets reheated three times because you’re too deep in the story to care. This weekend’s lineup was a mood: ❤️ The Rule Breaker by Stephanie Alves – Forbidden tension, secret glances, and the kind of…
Home Run by Lulu Moore
“I don’t know it yet, but today is the day I get pregnant.” Author Lulu Moore comes out swinging with this fifth and final book in the New York Lions Series. And boy, does our main guy Tanner Simpson have his hands full with Mille Robinson, the woman he’s been obsessed with since he first…
Caught on Camera by Chelsea Curto
If you love a friends-to-lovers story with fake dating, holiday magic, and swoony NFL energy, Caught on Camera needs to go in your TBR pile now. Bonus? The characters are in their late 30s, and as a 40-year-old reader, I absolutely adored seeing a love story unfold between two people who’ve lived, loved, and figured…
Wyatt by Jessica Peterson
I am so here for this book. I know the friends-to-lovers trope can be a bit divisive; some readers struggle with the “sudden” shift from friendship to romance and question whether the love actually feels believable. But when it’s done right? It’s pure magic. Wyatt and Sally’s story is the perfect example. Their journey isn’t…
Holding the Reins by Paisley Hope
I could not put this book down. I heard mumblings of this series in recent weeks, but as a first-time reader of Paisley Hope, I didn’t quite know what to expect. But when I say this book is HOT, I mean Paisley Hope really brought the heat. I found myself giggling with anticipation at their…
Heartless by Elsie Silver
AKA: the reason I’ll never look at a kitchen table the same way again. Let’s get one thing straight: I did not come here looking to fall in love with a grumpy, emotionally unavailable cowboy with a kid and a guarded heart. But Cade Eaton? That man said “I don’t do feelings,” and I said…
