I loved this book! It's a fun romance that genuinely made me laugh out loud. If you like enemies to lovers and workplace romance tropes with tons of sassy banter and FOOD this book is for you.

A Cowboy to Remember | Rebekah Weatherspoon
post image
Pickpick

With an appropriate number of dogs and loads of quality food porn this book is an excellent start to Weatherspoon's newest series. A celebrity chef loses her memory and has to go to the ranch and first love she purposefully left behind 10 years ago. A wonderful take on second chance romances with a cowboy spin. Cannot wait for the next book fingers crossed its about Jesse!!!!!

Girl Gone Viral | Alisha Rai

This hit so many of my favorite tropes.
Friends to lovers ✅
Forced Proximity✅
Supportive squad✅
Cute doggo ✅

Okay so technically the dog isn't a trope but hey its my review, my rules #teamdoodle. Real talk, Jas & Kat made this book! I loved the way that they supported and encouraged each other. I also loved they way Rai talked about mental health with tact & empathy.

TLDR: This was a fun sexy read with a shit ton of heart, and loads of 🍑.

Something to Talk About | Meryl Wilsner

OH.MY.GOD. OBESSED WITH THE BOOK

1. Loved the chemistry between Jo & Emma

2. Loved the way Wilsner handled the power imbalance

3. The Cassandra project was topical AF

I just loved it! Only thing was I was practically ready to throw my kindle towards the end waiting for these women finally get down to business but I so enjoyed their journey and watching them fall in love.

I received an ARC from netgalley

I wanted to shake zach for like 70% of this novella but Oh my god Jo was the the best!!! Zach not seeing what was right in front of him aside you definitely want to read for the pictionary (hilarious) and the ice skating (hella cute). All in all it was a super fun holiday read definitely worth checking out over the lunar new year 💕💕💕.

Hearts on Hold | Charish Reid

Genuinely this book was a fun surprise jam packed with tons of heart. 3 reasons I loved it....
1. They got right down to business, seriously considering sex planner now.
2. The prevalence of girl gangs. I LOVE a good girl gang and this book has 2!
3. I laughed out loud.
I loved Johnny & Victoria together, they rocked the opposites-attract trope, supported each other, grew together, & had 🔥🔥🔥 sex.
Yall this book has it all.

Holy. Shit. Damn. Thus novella was amazing!!!!! The closing line was phenomenal.

Equal parts satire, thriller, and character study this novella explores the relationship between a beautiful flighty serial killer and the increasingly resentful protective older sister who is cleaning up after her.

Someone PLEASE read this book so we can talk about it!!!

rmaclean4 Loved this book...might be time to reread it! 5y

Continuing my novella streak with this gem by Alyssa Cole. A fun fandom romp with tons of fangirl feels, representation, and banter. Really wish I could watch Reject Squad Ultra, such a cool concept!!!!

Chasing Cassandra | Lisa Kleypas
post image
Pickpick

I have been hooked on the Ravenels story since book one. Gotta say I was skeptical going into this because Tom has been a complete ass for 4 books, and I didn't think Kleypas could change my mind but god damn it she did. Loved watch Tom succumb to love baffled the entire time. Most of all I enjoyed seeing some dimension added to Cassandra. Loved that she found her feet but wish we actually saw her create her charity.

Oh my god this audiobook had me laughing, out loud, so much! Normally I'd be thrilled but I was at my desk for most of this audiobook and my office mate kept on asking if was crying everytime I tried to stifle a laugh. Loved the characters, but got a little fed up with Ford at times for not telling Gina the truth. All in all a hella fun read 💕💕.
Also audio has two narrators if you are into that.

Firstly, kick ass poc heroine, fun banter, and sexual tension for daaaaayyyyyyyysss

Secondly, this book changed my mind about slow burn romance. You can ask anyone I know what kind of romance books I hate the most and they would all tell you slow burn. If you are hesitant to read this book because, like me you want to get to hot sweaty stuff, I implore you to give this book a chance. Its worth the wait.

Go read this book!

An enemies to lovers plot, a cheeky pirate, sassy banter...this shit was solid gold.

I LOVED THIS BOOK!!! As a former playtron, avid romance reader, and Shakespeare nerd I felt like this book should have been called "Well Met, Erika". Such an amazing and fun read. I have already recommended it to several library patrons and friends. I'm obsessed.

The Bride Test | Helen Hoang

This book was a roller coaster, I laughed out loud (the manual scene was too much for me!!!) , and cried a little too, I cannot wait to read more of her stuff! This book put Helen Hoang on my automatic purchase list for work and my own personal library. Already dying to read Quan's book, I loved him in the KQ but Khai's book sealed the deal and I really need to see this guy finally fall in love!

#weneeddiversebooks #romance #ownvoices #mustread

bookandbedandtea I didn't realize there was character overlap as I haven't read KQ but I ADORE Quan and if he gets a book I'll definitely read it! 5y

The Austen Playbook | Lucy Parker

Wow this kicked right off, usually Parker's books have a bit up of a build up but I appreciated the change of pace. This book is bursting with banter, fun sex, and a couple fighting to support each other as they both struggle to carry the burdens of their respectively family legacies. Also a great read if you are into opposite attracts/enemies to lovers tropes! I can't wait to see where Lucy Parker takes us next!

This book wasn't what I expected. It was atmospheric as fuck, and the ending was simultaneously depressing and horrifying. Unlike the Netflix series this book leaves you wondering if anyone can ever really "go home".

This is the second Jackie Lau novella I have read in in 24hrs this woman clearly knows how to do a holiday novella. Two childhood sweethearts reconnecting over the holidays after meddling parents pressure them into carpooling home for the holidays. A snow storm forces them to seek for shelter for the night. If you like forced proximity, friends to lovers, second chance romances, and jelly donuts this is the Christmas novella for you! #romance

This book kicks right off and is action packed! We instantly meet Memory our new empathic heroine trapped in an underground cell. And from the moment Alexie helps her escape it's a non-stop thrill ride. I really loved Memory and her take no prisoners attitude and determination to carve out a life for herself with Alexie. She is definitely a fighter ❤️. All in all another fantastic addition to the psychangeling universe! #romance #paranormal
