Just for the Summer

How does Abby Jimenez continue to write the most sworn worthy and adorable book boyfriends? Every time I think she tops herself, she creates another adorable romance and couple. Opening with a ‘Am I the Asshole?’ Reddit thread immediately hooked me. I’m a sucker for these types of threads. Add in the ridiculousness that is…

Happily Never After

Sophie Steinbeck and Max Parks have sworn off love. In fact, these two cynics are co-objectors in their side gig which allows them to spare other brides and grooms the embarrassment of cancelling or calling off a wedding.

A Fate Inked in Blood

Everyone is in their Romantasy era. I’m only half joking but for anyone needing something to hold them over for the next SJMaas or Fourth Wing installment, this book is for you! Danielle L. Jensen has done a fabulous job of creating a fantasy world inspired by Norse mythology. It has all the Viking vibes…

Expiration Dates

Rebecca has quickly become an auto buy author for me. I’m a big fan of magical realism though and so her books give me enough magic within a contemporary setting to fuel my imagination. Since she was young Daphne has always received a slip of paper telling her how long her relationships last. She doesn’t…

Love, Naturally

I love a good opposites-attract romance especially when our lead characters are adorable and have perfect chemistry.

Presley, a self-proclaimed city girl who considers sipping mimosas on the patio as…

Last Call at the Local

Give me a good romance set in the Scottish Highlands or in Ireland and I am soldddddd. Last Call at the Local was no different, and I adored this heartfelt Irish romance. Raine has always struggled with ADHD. After dropping out of med school she’s diving headfirst into her music and playing around Europe. When…

The Fake Mate

I have never read a shapeshifter romance before. While I love fantasy, romantasy, and romance books, but have just never had the desire to pick one up. But I’ve heard great things about Lana Ferguson’s books so when Berkley sent me a copy, I decided to give it a whirl. From the first chapter, we…

Portrait of a Scotsman

I adore this series. It’s educational, charming, spicy, and filled with independent women during a time when women were seen as property. I’ve loved all our couples (Lucie and Tristan, Annabell and Sebastian) and I have loved Hattie’s character since Bringing Down the Duke, so I was extra thrilled to finally get a love story…

The Farrow women have long been thought to have been cursed and many have disappeared without a trace. June Farrow is the last of the Farrow women and is determined to note let the curse get her.
