#LittensLoveRomance Ch 15-16: I can‘t believe her ex called her to check up on what she was doing. Ooh the nerve! She handled it well though I think. I think she needs a new start in a new place - she needs to get away from people‘s expectations.

OriginalCyn620 Oh, I agree 💯. The ex telling her she didn‘t know Tanner well enough…that was rich. Did he not see the irony? 10h

TheSpineView I was livid for her when her ex called. The nerve!!! 9h

BarkingMadRead I cannot believe he called her! wtf?!? She can do her job anywhere, I think it‘s time to move! 8h

Kshakal I 100% agree!! 4h

A cute romance… was it my favorite? No, but it was a solid romance with a satisfying ending!

#LittensLoveRomance Ch.13-14: Blake is an ass. I mean I get it. But he could have approached things in a better way. Now Tanner feels he has to make a choice between his family and the woman who could become his family. Not an easy situation. And Cybil will face a lot of scrutiny and confusion from her friends (and everyone in her small town haha) for spending time with Tanner. Will they be strong enough to weather the storm?

BarkingMadRead He definitely didn‘t handle that well! Yikes! 1d

peanutnine Neither of the friends handled it well! Oof 😣 I understand Jade's pov a little more, since she's never seen Cybil interact with another man, but she needs to stop treating her like an immature kid and trust her! 1d

TheSpineView I loved how Tanner took care of Cybil. 1d

vonnie862 I get why he freaked out but he didn't handle it well. 1d

BarkingMadRead @peanutnine yes! It‘s like, since there‘s never been another guy there should never be another guy… unless Jade is there to supervise 🙄 19h

OriginalCyn620 The friends definitely could‘ve handled things better! But I do wonder what‘s going to happen since Cybil and Tanner live in different states. And are they actually going to have any sort of disagreement? There‘s been no tension between them and there usually is in romances! 12h

#LittensLoveRomance Ch. 11-12: Lauren is so ridiculous but at least she‘s in a better mood now haha. Poor Cybil. That would be me - totally clumsy at the finish line. And what a revelation about her ex - I feel so bad for her, and him - although since we‘re not reading from his perspective obviously I feel more for Cybil. It‘s complicated and I can only imagine how she feels.

LiseWorks Oh I love that Meme lol 3d

BarkingMadRead That meme 🤣🤣 3d

BarkingMadRead I kind of had a feeling about the ex, but not to that extreme! I hate that he lied to her 2d

TheSpineView The revelation about Chris was a shocker. I feel sorry that Cybil got strung along for so many years. Glad that she is admitting to herself she likes Tanner. I thought it was super sweet that Tanner read to her. He is just gold!! 2d

OriginalCyn620 The meme is hilarious! 😂 I was surprised by the twist with Cybil‘s ex, but as a reader, I like it better than him just being a cheating bastard. It‘s too bad that Cybil was lied to for so long, but the complexity of struggling with sexuality is compelling. And it makes it even more complicated that he and Cybil grew up together and were expected to end up together. 2d

vonnie862 It's sad that her ex didn't trust her enough to be honest. It was still a betrayal. 2d

#LittensLoveRomance Ch.9-10: poachers - can there be anything worse? What a horrible situation for Cybil to have found herself in. Here‘s hoping those men are gone now. Or maybe they‘ll run into the Bear. But this trip is certainly not the retreat that these couples were hoping for. Hopefully Tanner can keep everyone calm and safe.

StayCurious @TheAromaofBooks @TheSpineView @OriginalCyn620 @vonnie862 @peanutnine @Kshakal @LiseWorks @BarkingMadRead 4d

BarkingMadRead Omg that was awful, and so scary for Cybil and Tanner! 4d

TheSpineView They are lucky itcwas only warning shots. I wonder if the poachers will make an appearance later. 3d

LiseWorks I was surprised that it was the elk and not the bear they were after. It was a twist unexpected. 3d

OriginalCyn620 That was a scary situation! And hats off to Cybil…she handled it much better than I would‘ve. 3d

vonnie862 That was close! I would have peed myself if that happened to me in the woods. 2d

#LittensLoveRomance Ch.7-8: I get that the title of the book is called Rushed but I was still surprised that Tanner and Cybil kissed so soon. But I‘m ok with it if only because it put a bee in Lauren‘s bonnet and I‘m all for that. That woman is awful. I‘m worried more problems will occur because of that twit before this is over. And someone shooting nearby- that‘s certainly scary!

StayCurious @TheAromaofBooks @TheSpineView @OriginalCyn620 @vonnie862 @peanutnine @Kshakal @LiseWorks @BarkingMadRead 5d

LiseWorks I was ready for the sizzle, lol. I wonder if the gunshot is someone chasing that bear. And good for her for putting g up the tent all by herself. 4d

TheSpineView It does seem too soon for the kissing, but then the whole plot feels rushed. I don't think this is the last of the bear. We will find out soon enough. I get the feeling that Lauren is going stir up some trouble. 4d

OriginalCyn620 Really, Lauren is such a twatwaffle. She‘s hitting on all the men and seems way too concerned with what Cybil does. And what was that comment about not paying all that money for Tanner and Cybil to go off together to make out? First, I‘m sure she didn‘t pay any money, and second, it‘s none of her business what they do! 4d

BarkingMadRead @OriginalCyn620 twatwaffle is the greatest word ever and so appropriate here. She‘s a nightmare, and I love that everyone sees it for what it is. I don‘t think trouble with her is over, and my first thought was someone trying to scare off the bear, although if it‘s not any kind of hunting season, the presence of the gun is a little suspect 4d

vonnie862 Oh my goodness, I wanted to strangle Lauren. She was so annoying! I'm so glad Oliver spoke up. 4d

Here are 5 books for #SnowedIn @TheAromaofBooks

Must share my highly scientifical process:
1. Ohh, there‘s a dog! 🐶
2. Aww, pretty
3. Resting Scrooge Face 🤣🤣🤣
4. I wanna stay at a book club hotel!
5. Mystery involving a train ✅

I hope you like these selections as much as I enjoyed choosing them.

@PuddleJumper

tpixie I haven‘t read any of the others but the book club hotel was fun 5d

DogMomIrene @tpixie I may stack that one. Feeling like I could use fun light reads soon. 5d

tpixie @DogMomIrene I‘ve read a couple of her books and they are sweet, but not too cheesy. 5d

DogMomIrene @tpixie Sold! 5d

tpixie @DogMomIrene ☺️🎄🎄🎄☺️ 5d

TheAromaofBooks Yay!! Thank you so much!! Believe it or not but that entire list is comprised of books I own but haven't read 😂 I second @tpixie - I haven't read this specific Sarah Morgan book, but I have read several others by her and she does such a lovely job - while there is romance, the focus is usually more on family (especially mother/daughter/sister) dynamics. 5d

DogMomIrene @TheAromaofBooks 😂 I saw that you had tagged some of the books as “Kindle” so I debated sticking to those, but then I was “Nah, she‘s got too many other cute covers here.” I added The Book Club Hotel to my TBR. Not sure when I‘ll get to it, but definitely keeping it top of mind for when I need a sweet escape. 5d

TheAromaofBooks Yes, I own all the Kindle books, too 😂 The PROBLEM is that during Winter Games every year everyone reads such fun Christmas/holiday books so I add them to a list and then throughout the year I periodically check Book Outlet for them and snag any under a certain price point... which seems to have lead to a somewhat significant pile of paperbacks 😆 5d

marleed Love the process 🤣🤣 5d

DogMomIrene @TheAromaofBooks 🤣🤣🤣 5d

#LittensLoveRomance Ch.5-6: TBH - I‘m a bit terrified of bears ever since I was younger and watched this movie about a killer Grizzly on the loose. So I‘m thinking that bear is going to be back at some point in the story. I also think the group is going to come to an agreement to tie Lauren up and leave her somewhere if she doesn‘t stop her whining. But maybe that‘s wishful thinking. ⬇️

StayCurious It‘s sad that Cybil was with someone for 9 years and yet they talked about everything except what might be wrong in their relationship. Maybe this trip - and Tanner - will help her gain some perspective. 6d

tpixie Your bear 🐻 photo reminded me of this podcast. It won‘t help you feel better about bears, though https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/killer-author-club/id1771948461?i=10006762...

LiseWorks I was thinking the same about the bear and was also surprised that Tanner was surprised by its presence 6d

TheAromaofBooks I was a little surprised that Cybil has to share her tent with Tanner! I know he's her partner for this trip but... he's still a stranger! 6d

TheSpineView @TheAromaofBooks I had the same thought. Also, I'm not into this instant attraction thing going on. I wish there was more of a slow build up. Maybe start with more dialog between the two of them. 5d

TheSpineView Also, think Lauren is a drama queen and a bitch. She must be used to getting her on way all the time 5d

OriginalCyn620 Maybe the bear will return and think Lauren is a soft taco. 🌮 5d

BarkingMadRead I feel like that bear sighting was foreshadowing! Lauren is making me nuts. Who goes on a couples retreat and hits on all the men?!? They should send her packing, or feed her to the bear! 5d

vonnie862 @OriginalCyn620 🤣🤣🤣 5d

StayCurious @TheSpineView yes I agree, however I think it might be an instalove kind of story. I appreciate more build up too. 5d

TheSpineView @OriginalCyn620 We can hope 😂 5d
