[Shana’s Review]: Yes & I Love You by Roni Loren

Roni Loren is definitely known for her steamy romances, but in her next release, “Yes & I Love You”, she takes a dip into the rom-com world and I think she transitioned beautifully and in her own unique way! She didn’t just give us a traditional contemporary romance book about coworkers. Instead she gave us […]

Emily’s Review: Love at First by Kate Clayborn

Sixteen years ago, a teenaged Will Sterling saw—or rather, heard—the girl of his dreams. Standing beneath an apartment building balcony, he shared a perfect moment with a lovely, warm-voiced stranger. It’s a memory that’s never faded, though he’s put so much of his past behind him. Now an unexpected inheritance has brought Will back to that same address, where he plans to offload his new property and get back to his regular life as an overworked doctor. Instead, he encounters a woman, two balconies above, who’s uncannily familiar . . .

No matter how surprised Nora Clarke is by her reaction to handsome, curious Will, or the whispered pre-dawn conversations they share, she won’t let his plans ruin her quirky, close-knit building. Bound by her loyalty to her adored grandmother, she sets out to foil his efforts with a little light sabotage. But beneath the surface of their feud is an undeniable connection. A balcony, a star-crossed couple, a fateful meeting—maybe it’s the kind of story that can’t work out in the end. Or maybe, it’s the perfect second chance . . .

[Asis’ Review] The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid

The hype of this book made me very nervous to start reading it in the first place, especially because I essentially knew nothing about it beyond the fact that it was basically an interview with a very famous fictional actress. I hadn’t gone into a book blind in a really long time since I’m always asking […]

[Chelsea’s Review]: The Last Goodbye by Fiona Lucas

This will be a spoiler-free review. I was instantly drawn to this book from the moment I read the synopsis and saw the comparisons to both Josie Silver and Jojo Moyes, who write beautifully heart-wrenching books. After reading this book, I can tell you that The Last Goodbye is just as beautifully written. I knew […]

[Marie’s Review]: A Pho Love Story by Loan Le

I will pretty much jump at any chance to read a book written with and for the Vietnamese American experience and A Pho Love Story is no exception. This romantic comedy is a cute twist on the Romeo & Juliet trope – if Romeo and Juliet were Vietnamese American young adults whose parents own rival […]
