Malachi sure has some kind of a mental disorder. That obsession and twisted devotion for his foster sister screams red flag to me. The things he did with her while she was unconscious because he drugged her were sexual abuse, let’s be honest.  I couldn’t like Olivia in part 1, much less their parents but their…

Content:⋆✴︎˚｡⋆  mystery ➺ murder ➺ supernatural ➺ dual timeline   ⋆✴︎˚｡⋆ I just couldn’t get into this book. A woman primarily staring across the lake spying on her neighbors while drinking heavily. So damn boring. Just writing a review for this book is putting me into sleep.  Casey Fletcher, a recently widowed actress trying to escape a streak of bad press, has retreated to the peace and quiet of her family’s lake house in Vermont. Armed with a pair of binoculars and several bottles of liquor, she passes the time watching Tom and Katherine Royce, the glamorous couple who live in the house across the lake.

I really enjoyed reading the parts of Penn trying to become a foster parent to Sam. It was so heartwarming 🥹 If you enjoy a light sports romance with a group of found family and a marriage of convenience with low drama, this is your book. ˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ This is book 5 in The Single Dad Playbook Series.

Terrible characters, sex, sex, sex and more sex, the VERY little plot that has was stupid, and the writing was lousy. It was so bad I would have given this zero stars if I could.

Content:⋆✴︎˚｡⋆  dark academia vibes ➺ mystery ➺ murder ➺ dual timeline ➺ love, friendship & betrayal ➺ “who done it?” ➺ set in Oxford ⋆✴︎˚｡⋆ The atmosphere was good. It has that dark academia vibes. The dual timeline was well done. However, I didn’t find lots of tension throughout the book, it didn’t make me feel like other thrillers have – excited, needy to know what happened. It was also soooo slow in progressing the plot line, it felt like the author had to meet a certain word count and hadn’t reached it yet, so she padded it with unnecessary “fluff” that didn’t add anything to her story or characterizations. Could…

Aside from that, I really liked this. All Roman doubts and uncertainty was really engaging and felt realistic. I found myself deeply focused on Roman recovery, his pain, his hope… The way he treated his mother was just…

Content:⋆✴︎˚｡⋆  con artist mmc ➺ mystery ➺ short chapters ➺ domestic thriller ⋆✴︎˚｡⋆ The story is mostly the ramblings of a sociopathic liar who gets away with conning dumb ass women. and the daughter of his target trying to figure him out. Boring and redundant. I kept waiting for something interesting to happen, and it never did. The different timelines were very frustrating and hard to follow as well.

3.25 stars Content:⋆✴︎˚｡⋆  celebrity ➺ athlete hero ➺ sports romance ➺ baseball ➺ forced proximity ➺ black main characters  ⋆✴︎˚｡⋆  At the same time that I think their relationship moved a little too quickly, you also barely see them romantically together on the page. I would’ve loved to see more development on their feelings, some real, emotional depth shared between the main characters as having more scenes with them together so you could see their relationship grow. This made me disconnect with them and not feeling their emotions. I also think the story dragged a bit in the middle. Overall, not a bad story, it just left some to be desired.  ❝…
