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

And this is for sure another book I read because of BookTok and like…no one told me this book had sexual assaultRead the Post

Quick Dip : Meghan Quinn

May 31, 2021 Leave a Comment

Because most romance authors have such extensive backlist, instead of taking a deep dive into their work, I’m taking a quick dip! I decided to splash around in the Meghan Quinn waters after hearing Booktuber In Love & Words talk about her. Quinn writes romantic comedies the lean towards sophomoric humor and have varying steamRead the Post

Wins and Losses by Alexandra Warren

April 23, 2021 Leave a Comment

Wins and Losses is my kind of sports romance. I’m fascinated by the communities formed around sports teams and that’s where I like my sports romances to take place. After her father is gunned down, Carmen Wellington returns to her hometown to help her brother Jordy, the star basketball captain, through his senior year. Raising aRead the Post
