Here’s the thing: on a superficial level, Up Close and Personal is a sweet, entertaining, gender-swapped version of “The Bodyguard”. The plot is interesting enough even if predictable, and the characters are charming. What made me request this book is obviously the non-traditional distribution of roles. I’ve read my fair share of bodyguard romances and […]

[Lisa’s Review]: The Dare (Briar U #4) by Elle Kennedy
The Dare is the fourth and last installment of the Briar U series, and I have to say I’m sad that we’re done with the series. I could literally read Elle Kennedy’s hockey romances all day every day. While this one is not my favorite in the series, I absolutely loved it. Elle stays true […]
[Lisa’s Review]: Rage and Ruin (The Harbinger #2) by Jennifer L. Armentrout
It’s no secret that Storm and Fury is one of my favorite JLA books ever. Naturally, the sequel Rage and Ruin was one of my most anticipated reads of 2020. By the time I received my ARC, I had been anxiously waiting for more than fifteen months. I read the entire thing in one sitting, […]
[Elizabeth’s Review]: The Dark Tide by Alicia Jasinska
I like to think Alicia Jasinska read Beauty and the Beast and thought: let’s make our beast a QUEEN and let’s make it dark. And I was totally and completely about it. This book focuses on two POVs: Lina Kirk and Queen Eva and they each have something to prove. The dynamic between Lina and […]
[Lisa’s Review]: Conventionally Yours by Annabeth Albert
I read the synopsis for this one and was hooked. I knew I had to get my hands on this book as soon as possible. Conventionally Yours is a sweet, hilarious, and at times awkward enemies-to-lovers romance that will definitely make your day a bit brighter. For some reason, the majority of the male on […]
[Skye’s Review]: Bone Crier’s Moon by Kathryn Purdie
I was super excited to read Bone Crier’s Moon. I love the premise: the Bone Criers are essentially sirens that ferry the dead. To be able to ferry the dead, a leuress (what the Bone Crier’s call themselves) must undergo a ritual where she finds her amouré, her soulmate, and kills him. By killing him, […]
[Lisa’s Review]: From Blood and Ash by Jennifer L. Armentrout
With her most recent surprise release From Blood and Ash, Jen officially joined the ranks of high fantasy authors with a massive bang. It’s hands down the best book I’ve read this year, and definitely one of her best books to date. From epic fight scenes, over swoon-worthy men to strong female characters and steamy […]
[Lisa’s Review]: You Deserve Each Other by Sarah Hogle
So, I have mixed feelings about this book. The synopsis drew me in from the beginning – a couple that tries to their hardest to make each other quit their relationship? Pranks? Sabotage? Usually, I’m totally game for this sort of cat and mouse game; but I’m sad to say, I didn’t like the book […]
