Content:⋆✴︎˚｡⋆ age gap  ➺ forbidden ➺ grumpy hero ➺ ballerina vs physical therapist ➺ slow burn ⋆✴︎˚｡⋆ I was very excited to read this book after absolutely loving The Brightest Light of Sunshine, and while it was okay, this was not quite the sequel I was hoping for. The beginning was drawn out in many places and I didn’t like the adult version of Maddie. I was expecting a more appreciative, strong and kind Maddie after getting to know Cal and Grace in the first book, but what we get here is a depressed whiney Maddie. It was really hard to get into it.  ˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ This is book 2 in…

Content:⋆✴︎˚｡⋆  vampires ➺ werewolves ➺ fated mates ➺ shapeshifters ➺ cold hero ➺ alpha male ➺ forbidden ➺ age gap ➺ insta-love ⋆✴︎˚｡⋆ I read Bride last year. I don’t remember much other than I really loved the banter and the characters dynamic. I was looking forward to this one, but sadly, this didn’t meet my expectations. Koen kept pushing Serena away. Over and over. He was cold and distant for so much of the book just to turn around and decided he was in love with her. Just like that! Huh??? What??? Where was the buildup? The tension? The slow burn?  Honestly, the characters were poorly developed. They have no…

Content:⋆✴︎˚｡⋆  holiday reads ➺ ghost ➺ grumpy vs sunshine ➺ strangers to lovers ➺ forced proximity ⋆✴︎˚｡⋆ I wanted to love this, the premise was so cool, and the cover so cute! But sadly the story felt very bland and forced. The characters couldn’t hold my interest in this book long enough. I was bored.  Thank you @libro.fm for providing access to an ALC of this title in exchange for an honest review. ˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ This is book 1 in the Ghosted Series.

3.75 stars Content:⋆✴︎˚｡⋆  small town ➺ enemies to lovers ➺ grumpy hero ➺ opposites attract ➺ billionaire ➺ found family ➺ family group text ⋆✴︎˚｡⋆ I loved the banter between Emilia and Bridger! Also, the banter between Bridger and his brothers had me cracking up. The brother’s group chat texts was the absolute best! I just would have liked more for the hate phase to have lasted longer. The transition from enemies to lovers moved rather fast and I was having too much fun with these two as enemies 🤭 but I still enjoyed their dynamic. It was full of great tension and banter. It was a good book! ˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥…

Content:⋆✴︎˚｡⋆  spooky season ➺ spicy ➺ strangers to lovers ➺ curse  ⋆✴︎˚｡⋆ This was lacking in depth and way too spicy for a such short novella. I’m not exactly a prude but I think a little relationship development between the main characters should happen before all the spice begins. The ending felt unfinished as well. Awful.  ˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ This is a stand-alone novella from Scared Sexy, a Collection of Amazon Original Stories with many different authors.  ❝ In a world where every second was predictable, the sensation of surprise was blissfully foreign to him.❞ One darkly seductive immortal’s powers of persuasion have worked flawlessly for nine centuries—until he meets the one woman…

Content:⋆✴︎˚｡⋆  fake dating ➺ sports romance ➺ hockey ➺ opposites attract ➺ childhood friends to enemies ➺ anxiety rep ➺ coming of age  ➺ family drama ⋆✴︎˚｡⋆ Although I enjoyed this very much, it wasn’t my favorite by this author. The miscommunication was silly and dragged on forever while all could’ve been sorted out within a page. But then the main characters are teens and teens are dramatic like that. Still, I enjoyed Lynn’s sense of humor and banter and all the sweet little moments she creates between the main characters here. It was a really cute YA book. From play dates on the playground to sneaking into movie theatres, Dani and…

Content:⋆✴︎˚｡⋆  second chance ➺ love triangle ➺ found family ➺ secret relationship ➺ ➺ strong heroine⋆✴︎˚｡⋆ I used to love Jewel E Ann’s books. If she wrote it, I read it. That’s it! But now, sadly, that changed for me. She still have great premises but the execution are so lacking! Of course, I still find ones I enjoy but if I’m being brutally honest it’s not often.  I noticed a changing in her writing and not for the best, at least not for me. I feel like her stories are revolving too much around sex lately and also some too insta-love. There is barely any relationship development therefore it is…

Content:⋆✴︎˚｡⋆ a girl with Down syndrome  ➺ animal cruelty ➺ domestic violence ➺ entrapment ➺ very descriptive violence ➺ disturbing ➺ psychopath ⋆✴︎˚｡⋆ ⚠︎ If you are sensitive to animal cruelty, domestic violence or cruel and abusive behavior, do not read this. ⚠︎ I was so bored with it!  The author shows us nothing. This was just one big monologue of Grace relating one event after another. Horribly repetitive. The plot was also so obvious from the beginning. Once you discover the villain’s plan (which happens pretty early), what more is there?  Everyone knows a couple like Jack and Grace. He has looks and wealth; she has charm and elegance. He’s a…

Content:⋆✴︎˚｡⋆  enemies to lovers ➺ amnesia ➺ paranormal ➺ forbidden ➺ spooky season ➺ novella ⋆✴︎˚｡⋆ This was pretty damn good for a novella.  I loved their cat and mouse energy. The back and forth between the characters was so entertaining! I would love to get a full-length novel of these two. 🥹 ˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ This is a stand-alone novella from Scared Sexy, a Collection of Amazon Original Stories with many different authors.  When a vampire slayer loses all his memories, the only person who can help him is the vampire he’s tried to kill for centuries in this unforgettable short story by #1 New York Times bestselling author Ali Hazelwood.

Was it sappy? Absolutely. Was it sweet? Very much. Did I still enjoy this? You bet I did! Callaghan has skyrocketed to the top of the ultimate book boyfriend list. He will forever have my heart.  My only criticism about the writing is that Grace was never raped. She was sexually assaulted. Which…
