I am so excited for this new series! I absolutely loved this book and the characters. Hands down one of my favorite single dad book. I loved Weston so much. He had no problem jumping into dad mode. With his NFL friends he has a great support system to help him and they sure do. Sadie was easy to love she is very protective of her nephew. She slowly starts to let those walls down. Mad Love pulled me in from the first page and held me captive until the end. I can’t wait for the next book in this series!

I can read anything K. Bromberg writes. She is a go to author for me that never disappoints. Over the Limit  is book3 in the Full Throttle series. I really liked Lachlan and Blaire. Love it when our hero falls first. She is supposed to be off limits but that doesn’t stop him for pursuing her. The chemistry and steam is off the charts. Their story was perfection! Must read!

I will read anything Kelly Elliott writes. I love her small town romances and the way she tells a story. Forever Enough was the perfect beach read. It was a sweet love story with great characters.


There were moments my heart broke for Bradley and Mackenzie. She went through a lot and Bradley just wants what the rest of his family has. These two had an instant connection and were perfect for each other. They have the greatest banter and make each other better, they complete each other. I really enjoyed this book and seeing all the characters from past books.  Must read!

I have been on a roll with amazing reads from great authors. I have been waiting on the next book in this series since I finished the first one. I adored the first book and was so excited to get Cameron’s story. I am a sucker for small town enemies to lovers romance. Add sports into the mix and I am one happy girl. That is a great combo for a good story. These two definitely don’t start off good and the instant bickering begins. Unstoppable Love was a fun read with great characters and plenty of witty banter and chemistry. I am looking forward to the next book in this series.

What an emotional rollercoaster this book was in the best possible way. I still cannot stop thinking about this book. Jewel E. Ann is one of those authors I know can break my heart and then somehow put it back together by the end. I may not like how we got there but she always makes me happy by the end. I adore this authors work and will read anything she writes. I Thought of You is best to go in blind not really knowing anything. Make sure to have tissues on hand. Loved this book so much, MUST READ!

This series just keeps getting better. I loved Wes and Clare’s story. It was the perfect love/hate slow burn read. The chemistry between these two is off the charts.

YES!!! This book was perfect and I cannot wait for Aires book!

Capri is all grown-up!! If you don’t know who Capri is, she’s Julian and Autumn’s daughter from Second Chance Contract.

Elias didn’t have the best upbringing, but he was determined to succeed. He wanted to be worthy of the girl he fell in love with. Succeed he did, they don’t call him “Sin” or “Devil in a suit” for nothing.🥰


I loved being able to check in on past characters that I love. However there is never enough Julian.

There was the perfect balance between angst, spice and love. These two truly are soulmates. I really hope to see more of them in Aires book.

Monica sure knows how to do alpha men!! This is a must read.

Great start to a new series. This book was so sweet and romantic and funny. Just what I was in the mood for. I loved how these characters interactions were after so many years. Emily and Caleb were perfect for each other. Add in that sweet boy and it just makes it even better. The Kelly family is the kind of family we all want. I can’t wait for the next book in the series.

I loved this book just as much as the very first time I read it back in  2016 when it came out. I was just as emotional the second go round, I would be driving down the road crying and didn’t care. Written in the Scars is a book that pulls at your heart strings and will have you a blubbering mess. Trust me the journey is worth it. Make sure you go in blind and don’t read any spoilers. This will always be one of my favorite reads.  I loved hearing this story by these narrators. They brought the book to life in a new way. Once I start a good book I don’t want to stop. So being able to listen to it was perfect! I can’t recommend this book enough.

Vi Keeland always has me hooked the minute I start one of her books and this was no different.  I loved this book so much! I couldn’t get enough of Fox and Josie. These two were everything. Fox is an ex hockey player and Josie  is busy in New York and needing a break. Laurel Lake is the perfect place for both of them to have a slow pace from life. I am loving grumpy/sunshine genre right now. The relationship these two have and everything they go through to get there is perfection. I am such a huge fan of this author and loved this book. Must Read!
