A great “meet cute” is one of my favorite parts of a romance novel. If you’re not familiar with the term, a “meet cute” is the sweet or humorous way in which two main characters first meet. This book has a fun yet awkward meet cute, as well as a really charming story.
Welcome back, Lily and Lo. Not that they’ve gone too far, but it was nice returning to a story that is centered on them.
Hothouse Flower is my favorite book so far in the Addicted and Calloway Sisters series. I’m so glad I decided to read the two series together and in the suggested order. The characters are so deeply intertwined and the timeline is crucial to getting a complete picture.
Krista and Becca Ritchie’s books tend to be on the long side. Kiss the Sky is nearly 450 pages and the audiobook is 14 hours long. I never once felt bored, though, or wanted to story to move faster. In fact, the end is so swoony and satisfying I didn’t want it to end. Talk about getting a bang for your buck!
Now we’re getting somewhere! Addicted for Now was a far more enjoyable read for me than Addicted to You. Giving a series another chance even though the first book didn’t meet all your expectations can really pay off.
After Motion left me hanging, I could not wait to get my hands on Space! The story picks up over two years later, and my how Abram and Mona have changed.
Addicted to You by Krista and Becca Ritchie is one really slow and incredibly angst-filled story. It is the first book in the Addicted series.
With Naked Love, Jewel E. Ann dives head first into the enemies-to-lovers trope, and the result is a fun and sometimes emotional love story featuring memorable characters.
What a fantastic way to end Maximoff and Farrow’s love story. Alphas Like Us had me shipping #Marrow so hard!
I was looking for a book by a “new to me” author and stumbled upon Mercy. It has high ratings, but I was on the fence about reading it because I don’t like my romance on the super dark side. Don’t give me a book full of kidnapping and torture and then try to make me fall in love with the victimizer. Zachary Webber and Muffy Newtown narrate the audiobook, though, and I love them hard so I figured it was worth a shot. I was pleasantly surprised. Mercy is actually a heart melting love story with the perfect amount of darkness to shake things up and suck you in.
The Risk is the second book in the Briar U series, and I continue to be charmed by the sports romances set on an Ivy League college campus. The strength of the series so far seems to be its confident heroines who frequently outshine the hockey players.
I have been in a romantic suspense mood lately, and Say You’re Sorry is a darned good one.
