Thank you to Melanie Harlow and her team for the advance reader copy of Slap Shot Surprise, the fifth interconnected standalone in the Cherry Tree Harbor series. Two wonderful characters, a mature take on an accidental pregnancy, and a bittersweet end to a series I have loved. I am a Melanie Harlow review team member, but I remain honest and genuine in my reviews. In my defense, I thought the plane was going to crash. Otherwise, I never would have blurted out those embarrassing things to a perfect stranger. Did I mention he turned out to be a scorching hot superstar of professional hockey? But wait, there’s more. When the plane…

Corinne Michaels’ All Too Well ARC Review
Thank you to Corinne and the team at Valentine PR for the advance reader copy of All Too Well, the first interconnected standalone in the Ember Falls series. There is nothing like starting a new small-town romance series from Corinne Michaels, with a hot firefighter and even hotter chemistry. Lighter on the emotional baggage than season Corinne readers will be used to and a great place for those who have yet to fall for one of her books. For as long as I can remember, Lachlan West has been my brother’s best friend and the love of my life. Trouble is, he kissed me four years ago and then never spoke…

Karina Halle’s The Royals Upstairs ARC Review
Thank you to Karina Halle and the team at Berkley Romance for the advance reader copy of The Royals Upstairs. I absolutely adored this Karina Halle royalty-adjacent romance! It pulled on my nostalgia heartstrings so much, not just due to cameos from past Royalty romances but the entire story felt like the Karina Halle contemporary romances I fell hard for when I first started reading her. He’s the royal bodyguard. She’s the royal nanny. The annoyingly hot attraction that simmers between them—that’s a royal pain. James Hunter has made a tactical error. His new role as protection officer to Prince Magnus of Norway was supposed to be an exciting change. Instead…

Elsie Silver’s Wild Eyes ARC Review
Thank you to Elsie Silver and her team for the advance reader copy of Wild Eyes, the second interconnected standalone in the Rose Hill series. Elsie keeps getting better and better! Wild Eyes is a standout and is truly Elsie at her best with excellent spice, heartwarming characters, and a few emotional gut punches that had me full-on bawling my eyes out (in a good way). A rugged mountain town seemed like the perfect escape from a life in shambles. But on day one I ran full tilt into the world’s hottest single dad and now all my plans are ruined. As a chart-topping country singer with a recent streak of…

Catherine Cowles’ Delicate Escape ARC Review
Thank you to Catherine Cowles and her team for the advance reader copy of Delicate Escape, the second interconnected standalone in the Sparrow Falls series. Baby’s first Catherine Cowles ARC! I could not be more excited to scream from the rooftops about how much I loved Shep and Thea’s story and how much I never want to leave this Sparrow Falls era. Trust doesn’t come easily when you’ve been running for as long as I have, which is why moving in with a man I barely know is such a bad idea. Shepard Colson is all golden-boy charm and devastating good looks. But I know what it’s like to be taken…

Emma Scott’s Falling Like Stars ARC Review
Thank you to Emma Scott and her team for the advance reader copy of Falling Like Stars, a new standalone. I always adore the emotional onslaught guaranteed with the latest work from Emma Scott. I’ve missed her writing dearly as she writes these gems that make me laugh and cry. I am an Emma Scott review team member, but I remain honest and genuine in my reviews. She kept her heart locked away…until she gave it to the world’s biggest movie star. In the dazzling world of Hollywood where fame and glamour reign supreme, award-winning megastar Zachary Butler longs for something more than red carpet events and paparazzi flashes. As he…

Devney Perry’s Rally ARC Review
Thank you to Devney Perry and her team for the advance reader copy of Rally, the third interconnected standalone in the Treasure State Wildcats series. What starts with a one-night stand grows into a wonderful romance. This book has some heavy miscommunication, which won’t be for every reader but if you love accidental pregnancy and a raw, heavy emotional book. I am a Devney review team member, but I remain honest and genuine in my reviews. Check out my more detailed thoughts below… Pregnant. Homeless. Broke. Not what I’d expected for my senior year in college. Neither was Rush Ramsey. We met the day I went camping and got stranded on…

Giana Darling’s Asking for Trouble ARC Review
Thank you to Giana Darling and her team for the advance reader copy of Asking for Trouble, a standalone shorter novel in The Fallen Men series. Damn, Ms. Darling never misses! This book was impeccable and I am reminded time and time again why I love Entrance and that when we return to it, just how much I never ever want to leave it. An MC romance about a girl hiding from her past and the biker who becomes her unlikely saviour… When four thugs show up at Evergreen Gas Station with cocked shotguns and masked faces, it could have ended in the worst night of my life. Instead, a gorgeous…

Helena Hunting’s If You Want Me ARC Review
Thank you to Helena Hunting and her team for the advance reader copy of If You Want Me, the second interconnected standalone in the Toronto Terror series. I adored If You Hate Me, devoured it in just a few days and adored how it captured Helena Hunting’s signature blend of spice and laugh-out-loud hilarity. I counted down the days until this ARC landed on my Kindle. The blend of tropes is just to die for! Hockey romance, with an age gap and he’s her dad’s best friend and teammate. I am a Helena Hunting review team member, but I remain honest and genuine in my reviews. A standalone age-gap, dad’s best…

Melanie Harlow’s Small Town Swoon ARC Review
Thank you to Melanie Harlow and her team for the advance reader copy of Small Town Swoon, the fourth story in the Cherry Tree Harbor series. I adore Dash and Ari so much, Melanie Harlow has put together a phenomenal novel. Who doesn’t love when a character gets a second chance to fall even harder for her best friend’s older brother, bonus he’s a Hollywood heartthrob! I am a Melanie Harlow review team member, but I remain honest and genuine in my reviews. Only in the movies does the Hollywood heartthrob fall for the small town diner waitress. So when Dashiel Buckley returns to Cherry Tree Harbor for a wedding, I’m…
