TILL I KISSED YOU is the culmination of a story building
not only for the span of the two previous Cottonbloom
books, but for the lifetime of these characters. While
this can be read as a stand alone, I'll be honest and say
I think you'll be missing Read more...
One of the most delightful things to me in a romance is
when friends/side
characters become a tribe of framily. I love watching
folks that
continuously choose each other find strength in the bonds
that come with
it. It's why I'm drawn again and again to series Read more...
I am a huge fan of Michelle Moran's. I love reading about women throughout history that I was never really taught about in formal education. Particularly wonderful for me is that she usually writes in first person, making it easy to feel motivations and choices about these women Read more...
Guys, I just could not with this book. Could. Not. If you
are someone who
likes serious, and I do mean serious Alphas, or are
into the power
dichotomies frequently present in NA, then you very well
may enjoy this. It
has intrigue, suspense, mysterious dudes doing mysterious Read more...
If you're into insta-love, then THE ONE FOR ME is
probably gonna
scratch your itches. While Crystal has been lusting after
Mark for a while,
he doesn't notice her until she falls into his arms -
literally. Once she
does, he is 100% into her in a matter Read more...
I've never read any of Jeanette Murray's works before,
and I was a little hesitant to jump straight into a
series that was clearly well established. I will admit,
this one takes a little while to find your bearings if
you haven't read the entire series. There Read more...
Y'all, I was so excited about this book. I love
sports romances and I love figure skating. I've also watched
all season of THE AMERICANS which has
led to me to a fascination with Russia. A book which
scratched all these itches?
COUNT. ME. IN.
But, meh. The Read more...
The premise of this book was so intriguing. Two co-
workers who hate each other so much that they've actually
made a game of it. Well, actually, they've made a
thousand little games of it, and you can feel the contempt
dripping off each of them. The Mirror Read more...
This book is an environmental PSA disguised as a romance
novel. Now, don't get me wrong, there is definitely a
romance in there. But we're introduced to the hero, Todd,
as an activist who is willing to break laws and risk
personal health for his causes. His choices Read more...
A few things before this one even gets started: this is a
book about an
abduction of a teenager. Said teenager is abused for eight
years before
making her escape. If your brain fills in all the horrific
things that must
have happened to her and you need to walk Read more...
So what do you do when your one night stand turns into
your baby daddy? Loads of women in real life and romance
heroines alike have faced that question. However, I'm
sure few if any have ever faced Ginny's dilemma in this
book: what if said baby daddy Read more...
I am a complete sucker for sports romances. Honestly,
it's probably becoming a bit of a problem. I adore
watching sports, so I suppose this all flows naturally. I
find the fragile egos of professional athletes to be
particularly pleasing romance fodder, I don't know why. I
put Read more...
Lord alive did this one take a bit to get going. Or, I
should really say that it took a little while for me to
believe in this story at all. By the end of it, I really
enjoyed it and would recommend it as a great sports
romance - particularly Read more...
This book opens with a young Cade and a young Monroe, our
hero and heroine, on the night they said goodbye.
Immediately, author Laura Trentham establishes that there is
probably
no one else in the world who knows these two like they
know each other, and that probably will never Read more...
Do you like beta heroes? Read this book.
Do you like second chance romances with sassy women and
the quiet, but strong as hell men who love them? Read
this book.
Do you like small town romances that avoid saccharine and
surrender to real? Read this book.
THEN Read more...
13 WAYS OF LOOKING AT A FAT GIRL is not really a novel,
but it is. It's a cohesive narrative broken into multiple
points of view that leads it to feel like a kaleidoscope
view of a character instead of a full one. In her debut
novel, Mona Awad Read more...
Oooooof, this book was rough for me. The sweetness
that
could come from this kind of story too often veered into
saccharine and unbelievable, as though humans would not
really process information or behave this way. Some
moments were sweet and the chemistry between the hero and
heroine Read more...
Christ on a Ritz Cracker, y'all, THIS BOOK. It is trope-
nip to me. Weddings/wedding planners, check. Second
chances, check. Sassy heroine, check.
Plus, clocking in
at 100 pages, I read it in one sitting. Perfection for a
quiet Saturday morning, with Read more...
IF YOU ONLY KNEW is Higgins' first foray into
"women's fiction", which for her seems to mean that the
core relationship is not a woman and a man but something
else. The backbone of this story is Rachel and Jenny,
sisters on parallel but divergent journeys to Read more...
This book is a bit of a genre mash up. It's definitely a
romance, but straddles between romantic suspense and a
solid western romance. RUSTLER'S MOON was a slow burn of
a book that will satisfy any reader who enjoys fully
realized characters with individual and intertwined
journeys Read more...
Their profession is based on discipline and focus, which usually, shall we say, flows over into other areas, haha! Plus, all the reasons you listed above for sure.
