Taking Flight by Brooke May My rating: 3 of 5 stars If you read Courage of Us and saw my review, I’m basically feeling the same way. I love May’s world-building and character development skills. Not that I “like” all her characters, but she develops them really well, in that they feel like real people […]
Courage of Us by Brooke May My rating: 3 of 5 stars This was my first May novel and I was super excited to start a new (to me) author! May is an excellent world-builder and is a gifted character-developer when it comes to feeling like you know the characters and that they are well-rounded […]
Mr. Nice Guy by Belinda Williams My rating: 4 of 5 stars This was my first Williams’ book and I am totally invested in the Pierce brothers! The romance is real, relatable, super slow burn with a little steam, and what healthy relationships look like. I’ve always been a fan of friends-to-lovers, but the nice […]
Kingdom of War by Tricia Copeland My rating: 4 of 5 stars Action, adventure, drama, and a coming of age all rolled into one! What a wonderful audiobook to have selected for our family road trip this summer! While my kids are older teens, it had enough excitement and mystery to keep the whole car […]
Shield & Shade by Misty Hayes My rating: 3 of 5 stars FYI: This was my first Hayes novel and I learned this is a spinoff series from the author’s The Blood Dagger Trilogy AFTER I read it. So be warned it won’t make for a good read, in my opinion, if you haven’t read […]
The Don by Hazel Storm My rating: 4 of 5 stars This was my first Hazel Storm novel and my first novel based on Greek Mythology, needless to say, I am hooked on both! While it has 220 pages, The Don felt like a shorter story in all the best ways! When it comes to […]
Forbidden Wolf by C.R. Robertson My rating: 5 of 5 stars Ummm HECK YES! This was my first CR Robertson book and honestly my first experience with an almost otherworldly vamp/wolf/something else dark and unknown (but in reality very well known) combo, so I was excited to see how it went. I have to say […]
Mountains Wanted by Phoebe Alexander My rating: 3 of 5 stars This was my first Phoebe Alexander book and my first read about swingers/open marriages and relationships. I’m not 100% sure how I feel about the book because I truly enjoyed getting to know Sarah and her family, but I also found aspects of the […]
Dirty Kisses and Conflicting Wishes by Danielle Jacks My rating: 3 of 5 stars I have no clue how to review this story. This was my first Jacks’ novel so I’m not sure if this is par for the course or different from her other tales. Either way, the story had a lot of potential, […]
The Way to Storey by L.B. Anne My rating: 5 of 5 stars This was my first L.B. Anne story, and I am sooo excited to have found it! Anne is a gifted author; her imagery and vivid world-building are out of this world! You will fall in love with the characters, Luella is my […]
Love Unexpected by Marina Hanna My rating: 5 of 5 stars Holy Smokes this was one of the most fully developed romance/steamiest short stories I’ve ever read! At only 172 pages it is a fast read, but Hanna packed so much passion, character development, sizzle, and angst into it that it feels like a full-length […]
Blue Summer Part One by Everly Taylor My rating: 3 of 5 stars 3 out of 5 stars! Blue Summer Part One is a flirty re-telling of a childhood favorite cartoon that comes to life. I won’t spoil the fun, but it’s full of sexy blue men who don’t have any females of their kind! […]
Walker Pride by Bernadette Marie My rating: 4 of 5 stars This was my first Bernadette Marie book, and I am so very impressed with how each character had such a unique, distinct voice and personality. With such a large group of characters, mainly handsome gentlemen, it can easily become smeared talking heads, but Marie […]
4 out of 5 stars!! This was my first McKinley Audiobook, so I had no idea what to expect other than I loved the synopsis and the cover. I’m so glad I judged this book by the beautiful cover and snatched it up! McKinley’s skill with world-building was just as beautiful as the Italian setting […]
Jake the Growling Dog Goes to Doggy Daycare by Samantha Shannon My rating: 5 of 5 stars 5 out of 5 Stars! Who wouldn’t love a book where a dog and a squirrel are best friends? While this is a bright eye-catching book with fun illustrations and a great story about trying new things and […]
Try Right by Jill Brashear My rating: 4 of 5 stars First and foremost, I want to say while this is the third book in this series, it totally works as a stand-alone in my opinion, but it will make you want to read the others if you haven’t already!! With that in mind, this […]
