What It Takes by Willow Aster
Willow Aster was able to create such a beautiful, deeply satisfying read for me . It’s the kind of book that quietly works its way under your skin and then just lingers there. From the very beginning, I was pulled in by the the tension and the pull between Camden and Juliana, and that feeling…
On Borrowed Time by Harlow James
(ARC Review) On Borrowed Time gave me everything I love in a romance: meaningful character growth, emotional tension, found family, and a love story that unfolds slowly and naturally. It was impossible to put down, and I found myself completely invested in Henley and Elodie from the very first page. Henley Clark is a man…
The Mr. & Mrs. Mistake by Brighton Walsh
(ARC Review) Brighton Walsh can do no wrong in my eyes. Truly. She’s an auto-buy author for me, and The Mr. & Mrs. Mistake just solidified that even more. This book was sharp, funny, emotional in all the right places, and way deeper than I expected going in. At the center of this story are…
At Whit’s End by Bailey Hannah
“She’s afraid she’s not enough. He’ll make damn sure she knows she is.” And honestly? That line alone tells you everything you need to know about this book. Single mom Whitney Hart is exhausted, overwhelmed, and hanging on by sheer willpower. Her ten-year-old son Jonas is struggling, his dad is unreliable at best, and Whit…
In A Heartbeat by Laura Pavlov
(ARC Review) Axel Chadwick and Wren Waterstone are the definition of it’s always been you. Best friends since childhood, bonded by horses, shared dreams, and a love that grew quietly for years, until it all shattered in one devastating moment. Two years later, Wren returns to Rosewood River after a career-altering equestrian accident, wounded in…
Chasing Home by Piper Rayne
(ARC Review) Ohhhh this one had me in a chokehold. I picked up Chasing Home thinking I was in for a fun, flirty country-music fling, and instead it delivered something far deeper and more satisfying than I ever expected . Piper Rayne absolutely had me wrapped up in Zander Shaw and Romy Owens from the…
Where You Belong by Kristen Proby
(ARC Review) We all knew Brooks Blackwell’s story was going to wreck us a little, and Kristen Proby made sure of it. Fifteen years ago, Juliet didn’t walk away from the man she loved because she stopped loving him. She left because someone she trusted twisted her loyalty into something dangerous. What looked like a…
Duke by Jessica Peterson
(ARC Review) “Of course I know what a bluebonnet is. I just don’t get why I have a nickname all of a sudden.”“Because you’re my Texas flower, remember?” Wheeler Rankin doesn’t go to Lucky River Ranch looking for romance. She’s just there to visit her best friend Mollie, handle business, and prove (yet again) that…
500 First Editions by Maggie Gates
I knew this was going to be a five-star read the second I met Willow Winslet in chapter one (I mean, how can you not love someone bold enough to buy a drugstore vibrator on a Friday night), but somehow Maggie Gates kept making it better. This book starts like a hilarious rivals-to-lovers rom-com and…
