    A Novel Love Story by Ashley Postonย ย 

    ๐’ž๐‘œ๐“ƒ๐“‰๐‘’๐“ƒ๐“‰:books about books, magic, slow burn, grumpy & sunshine. This book was a totally snooze fest. I loved her The Seven Year Slip but I struggled to finish this. So boring!  “Love was tricking yourself into doing something you didn’t want to do, because you loved the person who did.Love was a bunch of small things that added up to bigger things.Love was feeling valued. And accepted.Just the way you were.It was never feeling too much, or not enough, even though often you were both, because Love loved you anyway. Not in spite of it, but because of it.“ A professor of literature finds herself caught up in a work of fictionโ€ฆ…

    The Dixon Rule by Elle Kennedy

    ๐’ž๐‘œ๐“ƒ๐“‰๐‘’๐“ƒ๐“‰:college sport romance, enemies to lovers, frenemies with benefits, fake dating, next door neighbors. I love some good banter and Elle Kennedy did not disappoint with this one. I loved the banter between Shane and Diana. I really felt the connection between these two. Seeing their relationship change over the course of the book was so fun, and really really cute.  My only criticism is that the book was a bit too long. Some of the scenes felt like were written only to add pages to the book. I also found the dad drama close to the end SO unnecessary.  Overall, a fun and cute read. Their back and forth…

    Honey Cut by Sierra Simoneย 

    ๐’ž๐‘œ๐“ƒ๐“‰๐‘’๐“ƒ๐“‰:dark romance, age gap, arranged marriage, love triangle, bdsm, mystery, cheating, polyamorous, cliffhanger.  I tend to skim sex scenes when they go on for several pages and there is just a lot in the bookโ€” but Sierra Simone does it masterfully. There is no one else who writes a sex scene like her. You just canโ€™t get enough!! ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ I am only giving it 4 because this one flowed a little slower for me than the previous book. But damn! I cannot wait for the sequel. That ending was shocking!!  “Think before you sign your safety away because your safeword will be the only armor I leave you with.“ I…

    God of War by Rina Kent

    ๐’ž๐‘œ๐“ƒ๐“‰๐‘’๐“ƒ๐“‰:mafia, marriage of convenience, amnesia, virgin heroine, touch her & die, enemies to lovers. I am conflicted about this book. It definitely has some great parts. There is definitely tension and chemistry between the main characters. And the banter was delicious. I really enjoyed reading some parts but it wasnโ€™t perfect. I did have a few issues with it. 1- Ava was one of my biggest problem here. She does very stupid things and childish to provoke Eli, and that made her came off like a brat. Very immature and childish. She lacked substance and character development. 3- Some parts of the book felt very middle school. Like the part…

    The Rom-Commers by Katherine Center

    ๐’ž๐‘œ๐“ƒ๐“‰๐‘’๐“ƒ๐“‰:enemies to lovers, grumpy X sunshine. The Rom-Commers started out strong but it goes downhill as you read. In the end I couldnโ€™t connect with either main characters. Both of them were pretty disappointing. Also, there is absolutely NO chemistry between these two. I wanted to love it so much more but sadly I found myself dragging through it. I donโ€™t mean to challenge somebody elseโ€™s opinion; however, The Rom-Commers was not to my liking. “Whatever story you tell yourself about your life, that’s the one that’ll be true.“ Emma Wheeler desperately longs to be a screenwriter. Sheโ€™s spent her life studying, obsessing over, and writing romantic comediesโ€•good ones! That…

    Cruel Seduction by Katee Robert

    ๐’ž๐‘œ๐“ƒ๐“‰๐‘’๐“ƒ๐“‰:marriage of convenience; enemies to lovers; mythology retelling; polyamorous; mmff relationship. What a glorious hot mess these four make when their emotions get tangled up!! Whew!๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ  This series is always full of delectable spice, mythological references, and all the olympus world drama. I thoroughly enjoyed this story and the evolution of the characters. I only found Pandora and Aphroditeโ€™s relationship underdeveloped. But I loved Theseus, Aphrodite and Adonis! “It never lasts, but there’s sweetness even in loss.“ He was my enemy. My lover. My husband.  And the one man I swore by all Olympus I would destroy.  Aphrodite has never flinched at getting her perfectly manicured hands dirty, and she’s…

    Crossroads by Devney Perry

    ๐’ž๐‘œ๐“ƒ๐“‰๐‘’๐“ƒ๐“‰:second chances, cowboy romance, small town, childhood friends, workplace, forced proximity, itโ€™s always been you, right person wrong time, dual timeline. I didn’t really understand their relationship. Why did they hate each other so much in the present? They met once a year for a week every year since they were kids, they ended up sleeping together when they were older, but once she left the ranch, they never kept in touch for the rest of the year until she was back in town. They never dated, they were only hookups. I just could not understand why they hated each other so much if they never once discussed their relationship…

The way I ate this upโ€ฆI had to force myself to put the book down when I needed it, and thatโ€™s when you know itโ€™s that good… Aiden is top tier book boyfriend material. He is sweet, caring, selfless and has the patience of a saint! Sorry Summer, but you could be really annoying sometimes ๐Ÿคญ but the way Aiden handled her had me swooning! The warm and cozy feelings that I got while reading this was unmatched!  Cannot wait til more from this series…
