What a weird and absolutely lovely story. Based on the description alone, I had my doubts I would enjoy this book. But a few other readers I trust said they loved this story, so I decided to give it a chance. Shark Heart follows Lewis and his wife, Wren, as they navigate Lewis’ transformation into…

Hello Stranger
Katherine Center is an auto buy author for me. Things I love about her books: they’re normally set in Texas and they always give me all the warm fuzzies. She’s definitely a comfort read and as always, I was stoked to get an ARC of Hello Stranger. Sadie Montgomery, after hitting rock bottom, is a…

Vanishing Hour
I’m convinced I’ll love anything Laura Griffin puts out. She does such a good job of blending a solid mystery in with the romance, which makes her book page turners for sure. Plus her books are primarily set in Texas, and as Texas girl myself, I love that I generally am familiar with the areas…

Fate decided that London, Taylor, and Samiah needed each other, and now they’re the best of friends. We’ve already had Samiah…
