The Play Maker by Stephanie Alves
Oh Maisie girl, I see you. I was you. Part of me is still you.The girl who wants to blend into the background so no one looks too closely, because what if they see the cracks you try so hard to hide? What if they decide you’re not enough? “Sometimes I feel like a side…
Silent Count by Ava Sutton
(ARC Review) Some books make you feel. Others make you heal. Silent Count does both, and Ava Sutton absolutely nailed it. Silent Count is one of those stories that digs deep and stays with you long after you’ve finished. It’s tender, emotional, and heartbreakingly real. It’s the kind of love story that reminds you healing…
Protect Home by Indy Valentine
Enemies to lovers has never tasted this good. From the moment Tenley and August, aka Gus, share the page, the tension is electric. Every argument feels like foreplay wrapped in sarcasm. The “venom” they hurl at each other could fool anyone into thinking they hate one another, but the truth burns a little hotter. It’s…
Full Tilt by Ruth Stilling
(ARC Review) My QUEEN, Ruth Stilling does it again. I didn’t think anyone could rival Archer and Darcy, but Tommy and Jenna? They’re an entirely different kind of wildfire. This story isn’t about soft, easy love. This story is about clawing your way out of the wreckage of your past and daring to believe you’re…
The Hookup Situation by Lyra Parish
This was my very first Lyra Parish book (and yes, I have a bad habit of jumping into series out of order), and the second I finished it, I immediately binged three more. It checked off so many of my favorite tropes: fake dating, friends-to-lovers, EXTREME spice with a side of bedroom lessons, and all…
At First Dance by Renee Harless
(ARC Review) “She wasn’t looking for a way out. He wasn’t looking for anyone at all. Especially not his brother’s ex. But sometimes, love finds you right where you land.” At First Dance is a tender, charming slow-burn romance that finds its magic in the quiet moments between two people whose lives couldn’t be more…
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…
