[Skye’s Review]: The Dachshund Wears Prada by Stefanie London

The Dachshund Wears Prada is a cute, light, contemporary romance with the sunshine and grump trope! I could easily see this book turning into a Hallmark movie. If you’re looking for a quick, easy romance read, then look no further.  I’ve never read any books by this author, so I wasn’t sure what to expect. […]

[Skye’s Review]: Never Been Kissed (Boy Meets Boy #1) by Timothy Janovsky

This was so freaking cute!! At first, I wasn’t sure if this book would be for me. The writing style wasn’t working for me for the first couple of chapters. However, that all changed when Wren sent emails to the 4 guys he almost kissed. Needless to say, after that, I was immediately invested. Never […]

[Diane’s Review]: Some Mistakes Were Made by Kristin Dwyer

An Absolutely Heartbreakingly Beautiful Debut! Kristin Dwyer has set the bar high for teen love and longing. This was a book that I couldn’t put down! Dwyer weaves an element of mystery in with the classic contemporary romance, making it something of its own. With a beautiful prose you really get a sense of Ellis […]

[Portia’s Review]: Meant To Be (Twist of Fate #1) by Jennifer Probst

Meant to be is the first in a new series by Jennifer Probst that follows the lives of 3 best friends, with a book dedicated to each. This book called to me because I love a surprise/accidental pregnancy trope! For the most part I think this book was fine. It was a quick, easy read. […]

[Asis’ Review] The One for You by Roni Loren

I don’t have anything to say about the writing, really. No complaints at all, it was perfectly okay but nothing that stood out to me immensely either. In general, I had no problems with any characters or their relationships (I did love the relationship of the main couple with the old couple). Since I never […]

[Diana’s Review]: Some Mistakes Were Made by Kristin Dwyer

Well, damn. I was not ready for how angsty and angry and heartbreakingly sad this book is. “I have to be careful because memories are like rain. A harmless drop here and there falling against my mind, then suddenly, I’m standing beneath a flood.” Unfortunately, I didn’t end up loving SMWM as I hoped. This […]

[Skye’s Review:] Hook, Line, and Sinker by Tessa Bailey (Bellinger Sisters #2)

This book deserves ALL of the stars. I adored this book from start to finish. My only complaint is that the book ended. I could read about Hannah and Fox all day. Their story was everything. It was the most exquisite slow burn, heartfelt, friends-to-lovers story. Tessa Bailey wrote Fox’s character and his struggles so well. […]

[Elizabeth’s Review]: Mr. Wrong Number by Lynn Painter

This book was so much fun to read, and I found myself unable to put it down. When reading the synopsis, I could tell that this book would be fun, witty and full of romance. Olivia—our main character—caught me by surprise. There have been several times when I have read a book with a quirky […]
