[Asis’ Review] Love Her or Lose Her by Tessa Bailey

Y’all know a marriage in trouble book will ALWAYS be a book for me. It’s one of my favorite tropes for some reason and I immediately knew I had to read this lol Good thing: this one did not disappoint. I absolutely adored Rosie. I loved how much she grew throughout the book, how her […]

[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 […]

[Skye’s Review]: The Honey-Don’t List by Christina Lauren

This all-star writing duo never fails to captivate me from page one. Their books are addicting, fun, swoon-worthy, and entertaining. As soon as I started reading The Honey-Don’t List, I couldn’t stop. Fast forward a few hours later, not only have I finished the book, but my heart was happy, and there was a huge […]

[Elizabeth’s Review]: The Worst Best Man by Mia Sosa

This book was such a fun read, and I fell in love with the romantic-comedy that Lina and Max embodied. Lina Santos is a wedding planner who was dumped at the altar, and she did not let it stop her. What I loved about Lina was her hardworking attitude and how she never gave up. […]

[Sita’s Review]: Sticking to the Script by Stella Weaver

This is it people. If Steph gave us one ‘ten star for the year’ I would cash in that chip for this book this very minute. And there’s still a quarter of 2019 to go. Full disclosure – I have a history with this story and the super gorgeous author who wrote it. In 2016 […]

[Lisa’s Review]: Faker by Sarah Smith

Emmie Echavarre works in a male-dominated field and is, according to herself, a professional faker. The tough facade she puts on from nine to five Monday through Friday is a stark contrast to her otherwise easy-going self – but Emmie considers it a necessity to hold her own against the primarily male workforce at her power […]

[Steph’s Review]: Josh and Hazel’s Guide to Not Dating by Christina Lauren

For as long as I can remember, authors Christina Lauren have always made it onto my “highly anticipated” TBR each year. That being said, it doesn’t take much to get me on board with a book that has their names attached to it. When I heard about their upcoming standalone with the striking cover, and […]
