New Release | The Bad Boy Rule by Maren Moore

As a figure skater myself, I was enthused to have the opportunity to read and review this ARC before it came out through Valentine PR (thanks, y'all!). I thought I was really going to resonate with Lennon, but I don’t understand how she could so easily give up her ice time the following semester to… Continue reading New Release | The Bad Boy Rule by Maren Moore

Review | Lights Out by Navessa Allen

My coworkers likened Josh in this book to Lego Batman, and that movie is one of my favorites, so I was excited to receive an incredible special edition cover of Lights Out in my PS subscription box a few months ago. My coworkers also recommended listening to the audiobook, which I thoroughly enjoyed— the voice… Continue reading Review | Lights Out by Navessa Allen

New Release | Unloved by Peyton Corinne

After not really loving Unsteady (I'm not a huge fan of black cat fmcs), I was hesitant to pick up Peyton Corinne's second book, but I'm so happy I did because Unloved delivered in so many ways that the first book fell short. Following Ro's journey of self-love was such a fun and wild ride.… Continue reading New Release | Unloved by Peyton Corinne

Review | The Goal by Elle Kennedy

Since absolutely loving Garrett and Hannah in The Deal, I've been trying to get through all of Elle Kennedy's books, and they never disappoint. I just wish I had gotten around to reading this book sooner because there were moments I was a little confused about side characters or plot lines from the other books… Continue reading Review | The Goal by Elle Kennedy

Review | ‘Til Heist Do Us Part by Sarah Desai

I absolutely adored this book! After being obsessed with Jack and Simi's chemistry and banter in the first book, I was so excited to read the second one. It was so much fun to follow their rollercoaster of a relationship through their second heist together. There were so many moments between them that had me… Continue reading Review | ‘Til Heist Do Us Part by Sarah Desai

Review | All I Want Is You by Falon Ballard

After adoring Right On Cue earlier this year, I was so excited to read Falon Ballard's holiday second-chance romance, and I definitely wasn't disappointed. Filled with incredible banter and hilarious moments of irony and shenanigans, I had so much fun reading this cosy holiday book. I loved the dual POV following Nick and Jess while… Continue reading Review | All I Want Is You by Falon Ballard

Review, Upcoming Release

Upcoming Release | Close Knit by Kels & Denise Stone

I loved Daphne's bubbly sunshine personality and how perfectly it brought out the sharper edges of Cameron's demeanour in juxtaposition. The leftover tension from their first encounter and the forced close proximity make for a suspenseful romance story that was hard to put down. Cyberbullying, anxiety, and self-care are significant topics in this book, and… Continue reading Upcoming Release | Close Knit by Kels & Denise Stone

Review | & Then They Wed by Riya Iyer

Despite having read so many books with brown main characters, this was my first time reading one set in Mumbai and I really enjoyed finally having a setting outside of New Jersey. ;p The city itself is filled with vitality and life just like any other character. I feel like without the detailed writing of… Continue reading Review | & Then They Wed by Riya Iyer

Review | Icebound by Meredith Trapp

Honestly, I hated Rhode from the first page. He spent so much time lamenting the fact that he was older, that his bones ached and his back hurt and everything in between that it was frankly obnoxious. Like... Get in line, you're not special because you have a few aches and pains. However, Nina was… Continue reading Review | Icebound by Meredith Trapp

Review | Sinners Anonymous by Somme Sketcher

I started reading this book because I saw a Bookstagram reel that someone made about it and was instantly hooked. That seems to be how I get into reading any mafia romance book... there's just something about these morally grey men that makes for compelling social media content. From the beginning, I fell in love… Continue reading Review | Sinners Anonymous by Somme Sketcher
