The Reinvention of The Rose by Christina C. Jones (Roses & Thorns #1)

September 11, 2021 Leave a Comment

This book is a spin-off from Jones’ High Stakes series and, while it could read as a standalone, I think it is helpful to read High Stakes before diving into this book. Our protagonist is Tempest, a woman in her twenties who has spent her entire life as a Rose, an assassin for a secretRead the Post

The Deal by Elle Kennedy

Content Warning: Domestic Abuse, Rape and Sexual Assault Not sure how much of this is a review or me doing a ‘feels dump’. I have been hearing hype about this book for years. 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

The True North Series by Sarina Bowen

September 7, 2021 Comment : 1

I randomly picked Steadfast off my bookshelf and was instantly pulled into the True North series. This series takes place in Vermont and centers around Shipley Farms–an organic apple orchard. Each book features hardworking characters as they build relationships, make sacrifices, and pursue their dreams. One of the things I love about this series isRead the Post

The Road To Rose Bend by Naima Simone

August 8, 2021 Leave a Comment

I don’t know why I get it into my head that books with warmly lit landscapes are moderate heat-level because this small-town romance was scalding. The last thing Sydney wants to do is head back to her small hometown of Rose Bend…especially since she’s pregnant with her ex-husband’s baby. Sydney has a complicated past withRead the Post

Love at First: An Uplifting and Unforgettable Story of Love and Second Chances by Kate Clayborn

August 1, 2021 Leave a Comment

I feel like the best way to describe this book is it is ‘exactly what it says on the tin’. I’m not sure why this book is listed under the title Love at First: An Uplifting and Unforgettable Story of Love and Second Chances. I suspect it’s because of how common the book title?  ButRead the Post

Next Year In Havana by Chanel Cleeton

July 20, 2021 Leave a Comment

I really should have reviewed Next Year In Havana and Heart and Seoul together. They are both about American women visiting their cultural homelands for the first time and grappling with where they belong while also falling into passionate but complicated relationships. Cuban-American journalist Marisol Ferrera’s family fledCuba in the 1950’s and have dreamed ofRead the Post
