Huge thanks to Libro.fm and Avon Romance for the free audiobook! Swoony and bonkers in equal measure, this was a festive, feel good treat.

Huge thanks to PRH Audio and G.P. Putnam's Sons for the free audiobook! Warm and tender, this gentle romance features a grumpy hero who will steal your heart.

Huge thanks to PRH Audio and Berkley Romance for the free audiobook! Smitten heroes are some of my favorites, and this one never stood a chance against his girl. Clearly (and loosely) inspired by Hozier, our hero is an introspective rockstar who tends to fall hard and fast. He’s not quite a golden retriever (he’s... Continue Reading →

Huge thanks to PRH Audio and Dell Romance for the free audiobook! It’s probably time to admit that Elissa Sussman is a one-hit wonder for me, because I was entirely underwhelmed by this disjointed romance and wasn’t won over by Once More With Feeling either.

I love it when I dive into a romance and I can honestly say that I’ve never read a story quite like it, which is absolutely the case here. I devoured 75% of this in a single sitting… unfortunately, the day before I got the flu, lol. I took a month off of reading, and... Continue Reading →

Huge thanks to PRH Audio and Berkley Romance for the free audiobook! The playful banter and chemistry shine in this adventure romance, pairing up childhood rivals who have crushed on each other in the past. I will openly admit that I did not care about the treasure hunt element one bit - it weighs down... Continue Reading →
There’s so much good stuff going on in this heartfelt romance, I loved some of the themes that are explored. Our heroine is grappling with the recent diagnosis of a chronic illness, so she’s not in the right headspace for a relationship. Our hero is in a messy place too, but they form a connection...

I love a wife guy, and this one was smitten from the start. He took one look at his girl, and there was no turning back after that. The quirky meet cute was fun, the marriage of convenience was a win, and the roommates scenario won me over. It’s like the tropes were custom made... Continue Reading →

An absolute DELIGHT. The chemistry jumped off the page, with feuding that was really foreplay, bickering that felt more like banter, and characters who revealed different sides of themselves one layer at a time. I love a good marriage of convenience romance, and this was the best kind - complete with a hero who was... Continue Reading →
Light and very spicy, this was a fast-paced, bingeable read. I have a feeling that I won’t remember any details about the plot in a week, but I enjoyed the story as I was reading it. Grumpy neighbor romances are a classic for a reason, and I particularly loved the way our grump bonds with... Continue Reading →

Tender, quietly intimate, and wildly powerful, this was a PHENOMENAL read. With slow burn goodness and a genuinely kind, loving, and patient hero, this had me SWOONING.

Definitely not what I was expecting, but it was fun, lol. After reading the blurb, I thought I was in for an emotional arranged marriage romance with mafia vibes, featuring a found family between two people who find love after loss. Which… I guess is technically true. This starts off heavy, and I was engaged... Continue Reading →

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ With electric chemistry and intimacy that will make you swoon, this reminded me exactly why I’ve loved Wilde’s writing since the very beginning. These characters are SO GOOD together - opposites at first glance, yet so similar beneath the surface. I loved peeling back the layers and seeing what was beneath all that tension...
