Twisted Love by Ana Huang

December 29, 2021 Leave a Comment

This is maybe my last spicy BookTok recommended read. I thought this book was way over the top and I had such a hard time looking past the hero’s toxic behavior in the last chapter. Twisted Love started of promising. Our heroine is the sunshine-y Ava Chen, a college student and aspiring pro photographer. HerRead the Post

The Mistake by Elle Kennedy

December 28, 2021 Leave a Comment

There was a time when I would have said Elle Kennedy was one of my favorite romance authors. I’ve read and enjoyed so much from her but the Briar books do not work for me at all and I don’t see myself reading anymore from this series. The Mistake tells the unlikely romance between rowdyRead the Post

The Chase by Elle Kennedy (Briar U #1)

November 23, 2021 Leave a Comment

I wanted to like this book but at the end of the day I just found it just kind of annoying.    Our hero, Colin “Fitz” Fitzgerald is a hot college hockey player but his real passion is art and video game design. His whole personality felt very much like Jughead’s “I’m a Weirdo” speechRead the Post

Unguarded by Jay Hogan (Vino and Vertias #10)

November 21, 2021 Leave a Comment

This book is a lot like those fish out of water 90’s romantic comedies. We have 27-year-old Tai Samuels the (as the book describes him multiple times) sassy, lipgloss-wearing party boy who flees Boston with just the clothes on his back after a disastrous breakup. He makes a detour in small-town Vermont and, with aRead the Post

When A Rogue Meets His Match by Elizabeth Hoyt & Night of The Scoundrel by Kelly Bowen

November 2, 2021 Leave a Comment

I couldn’t believe it when I found this in a Little Free Library a few months after the release date in brand new condition! When A Rogue Meets His Match is the second book in Elizabeth’s Hoyt’s new Greycourt series and follows Lady Messalina Greycourts’s forced marriage to her uncle’s wicked bully-for-hire, Gideon Hawthorne. This bookRead the Post
