Too many unrealistic elements. There is just no chemistry at all between the main characters. This book is only 384 pages but it felt like 8 hundred!! Extremely boring.  “I took this art class freshman year of college where we had to imitate the style of different artists. When we got to Van Gogh, the teacher went on about how sunflowers weren’t very common to paint at the time. They were rough and coarse, and other artists preferred…

We are told they have inside jokes but it’s never shown. They didn’t seem to know much about each other’s life. They felt more like strangers than besties.  I loved In a Jam, and I also love a friends to lovers trope but it was hard to connect with the story and the characters. I was incredibly boring.  ˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ This is book 2 in the Friendship, Rhode Island Series. Each book in this series features a…

I kept zoning out, bored, and waiting for something to actually happen. Camille was insufferable but Dusty was the highlight of this book. Flirty, easygoing, and so patient! The way he loved Cam was just beautiful. I wish my biggest life problem was to have a man like Dusty loving me.  ˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ This is book 4 in the Rebel Blue Ranch  Series.

Surprisingly, I loved it more than her romance novels. There was never once a boring moment for me while reading this, I was truly hooked the entire time. The paranormal elements added an extra layer that seemed to make the story even more interesting rather than being a distraction. I…

I was interested in the story but the minute they kissed the story started to go downhill slowly. Everything got SO cheesy. Also, five chapters to describe only one sex scene felt unnecessary to me.

Nothing in the book stood out for me. The insta-love vibes didn’t help much either. Also the male main character kind of gave me the ick. The cover and title are super cute but it was just an okay read for at most.  “Sometimes you get lucky and something perfect falls into your lap.” After getting ditched at the altar, every “I do” makes me want to scream. Which is a problem, considering I’m…

I was rooting for these two the whole way through. This is a young adult, but I think people of all ages will appreciate this book as it goes deeper than expected. My only criticism is that the end felt rushed. The main conflict got solved pretty quickly. I needed more closure, especially with her mom. I also wanted a bit more time with Audre and Bash together with maybe an epilogue…? The audiobook for this was phenomenal with duet narrations and sound effects for things…
