Tropes & Vibes:⋆✴︎˚｡⋆ creepyspooky ➺ dark academia ➺ gory ➺ graphic descriptive ➺ magical realism ➺ mystery ⋆✴︎˚｡⋆ I’m not entirely sure what the hell I read but this book was not good. The plot was nonsensical. Many of the scenes were confusing and somewhat gory. Just too weird for me Bunny!! I could not finish.  ˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ This is book 1 in the Bunny Series. Bunny Series: ❝We never joke about bunnies, Bunny.❞ We were just these innocent girls in the night trying to make something beautiful. We nearly died. We very nearly did, didn’t we? Samantha Heather Mackey couldn’t be more of an outsider in her small, highly…

2.5 stars Tropes & Vibes:⋆✴︎˚｡⋆  one night stand ➺ accidental pregnancy ➺ neighbors ➺ emotional scars ⋆✴︎˚｡⋆ For a guy who had a vasectomy because he didn’t want kids in his life, he was, suddenly, too eager to get married and build a family with someone he had just met only because she was having his baby… there is no tension. No angst. No build-up. Everything was just too sweet and corny for my liking.  ˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ This is book 3 in the Before Series. Each book in this series features a different couple and can be read as a complete standalone. But for maximum enjoyment, follow the recommended reading order.…

4.5 stars Tropes & Vibes:⋆✴︎˚｡⋆  cozy autumn romance ➺ opposites attract ➺ friends to lovers ➺ Gilmore Girls vibes ➺ black cat vs golden retriever ➺ next door neighbors ➺ cinnamon roll mmc ➺ single dad ➺ slow burn ⋆✴︎˚｡⋆ Cliff Burke is the book boyfriend of ALL book boyfriends. He’s an amazing dad, he’s kind, he’s funny and he genuinely enjoyed working for Michelle’s smiles, and that was beyond adorable.🥹 He and his girls added so much brightness to this story!  Not gonna lie though, Michelle could be so frustrating sometimes because she was convinced she didn’t deserve love. And I wanted to be angry with her but her relationship…

3.5 stars Tropes & Vibes:⋆✴︎˚｡⋆  enemies to lovers ➺ one-night stand ➺ billionaire ➺ black cat vs golden retriever ➺ she’s his publicist ➺ slow burn ⋆✴︎˚｡⋆ This was a solid 3.5 star read for me. I enjoyed the banter and tension of their relationship, but I felt like Camille really didn’t like Ryker for most of the book. I wanted more vulnerability, more softness coming from her, especially given their history of a one night stand. However, I did enjoyed their relationship and how it was built. Overall, it was entertaining.  ˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ This is book 2 in the Pembroke Hills Series. Each book in this series features a different…

Tropes & Vibes:⋆✴︎˚｡⋆ sports romance ➺ soccer ➺ roommates ➺ coach’s daughter vs team captain ➺ he falls first ⋆✴︎˚｡⋆ BORING. The characters were bland. There was no build up to the main couple’s attraction to one another. There story dragged on. It fell flat for me. ˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ This is book 2 in the Gods of the Game Series. Each book in this series features a different couple and can be read as a complete standalone. But for maximum enjoyment, follow the recommended reading order.

Tropes & Vibes:⋆✴︎˚｡⋆ marriage of convenience ➺ forbidden ➺ taboo ➺ foster siblings ➺ second chance ➺ it’s always been you ➺ found family ➺ forced proximity ➺ single guardian ⋆✴︎˚｡⋆ I really felt the length while I was reading this. Nothing happens between the main characters until almost 70% through. There are WAY TOO MANY characters in this book that made some parts of the story drag on and feel unnecessary. So much was going on outside of Fallon’s and Kye’s relationship that I felt like there was not much time to enjoy them together. The romance 100% took a back seat in this book and really felt like…

3.25 stars Tropes & Vibes:⋆✴︎˚｡⋆  second chances ➺ high school sweethearts ➺ small town ➺ single parents ➺ secret baby ➺ returning to hometown ➺ family dynamics  ⋆✴︎˚｡⋆ I have mixed feelings on this book as part of me really enjoy certain elements of the book but Delaney’s reasoning for keeping the baby from Bennett felt more rooted in pride than protection. She was actually angry with Bennett’s choice and that made her make a bad decision. She was incredibly selfish with that. She took something from Bennett and Leia that they will never be able to get it back. Another thing that bother me was the fact that she was only…

Tropes & Vibes:⋆✴︎˚｡⋆  college ➺ sports romance ➺ hockey vs figure skating ➺ black cat vs golden retriever ➺ dislike(ish) to love ➺ forced proximity ➺ partners ➺ flirty banter ➺ reformed playboy ➺ found family ➺ hurt/comfort  ⋆✴︎˚｡⋆ I had such a blast with this one! Their chemistry felt natural and earned. The banter was top notch! Although this is the steamiest book in the series, there were quite a few emotional moments too. It dragged a little at the end, but overall, it was a really enjoyable read with satisfying romance and solid character development. Loved watching these two peel the layers for the other to really learn who they…

Content:⋆✴︎˚｡⋆  coming of age ➺ it’s always been you ➺ first love  ⋆✴︎˚｡⋆ I didn’t quite feel the relationship, to be honest. There is just no relationship buildup at all!  Not even in the past nor in the present. The main characters meet for the first time when they’re both ten years old for a very brief moment, VERY BRIEF! Yet they somehow fell in love and then part ways. Then they reconnected again 7 years later and claim they’ve been in love with each other since that day. We didn’t get to see the love blooms. It was really hard to feel emotionally connected with their love story. However, I was able…

Content:⋆✴︎˚｡⋆  dual timeline ➺ cabin in the woods ➺ trauma & secrets  ⋆✴︎˚｡⋆ Good read, but with too many books been releasing per year, Freida’s writing is definitely starting to suffer. The suspense wasn’t really there. Nothing was shocking to me, and a lot of the twists and turns felt extremely predictable. The story felt unfinished to me too. But more wholesome than her others for sure.  Who knows what the storm will blow in… Casey’s cabin in the wilderness is not built for a hurricane. Her roof shakes, the lights flicker, and the tree outside her front door sways ominously in the wind. But she’s a lot more worried about the…
