Want You to Want Me is the second installment of Lorelei James Want You series and a cute, entertaining, frenemies to lovers romance.

This is the third book in Ashley Poston’s Once Upon a Con series, and I was so excited to see that it was a modern retelling of Beauty and the Beast! This book revolves around Rosie Thorne, who is grieving her mother’s death and trying her best to navigate a new reality in her absence. […]
[Elizabeth’s Review]: You Had Me at Hola by Alexis Daria
This book brought the drama and steamy romance on a level that I wish more books did, and I was completely about it.

I’ve read my fair share of bodyguard romances 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 […]
