The yearning, the quiet actions of love, the messy and honest conversations, the baggage they each brought into the relationship, and how they handled it together. Perfection, beautifully written perfection. I was brought to tears of joy multiple times while reading this book. It began during the author’s note in the beginning and never stopped
⭐️⭐️⭐️💫 (3.5) Genre: Romance {opendoor but has closed edition} Format: E- Arc Publication: June 17, 2024 Soundtrack: I Will Buy You a New Life – Everclear Thank you to Netgalley and Melissa Dymond for the advanced copy of this book in exchange for my honest review of this novel. Outwardly, Paging Dr. Hart is a […]
This novel completely enthralled me. Check & Mate’s rivals-to-lovers build felt organic with a slow burn that frankly had me questioning whether they would become lovers at all.
An ode to both baseball and romance novels, KT Hoffman’s debut is funny, flirty, and brimming with joy. He details everything to perfection from the baseball diamond to the open-door scenes, in an illustrative and witty manner, yet still full of tenderness.
She finds Iwan, an optimistic and decidedly attractive aspiring chef, in her apartment and finds it difficult to follow the second rule. That is not her only problem; however, the Iwan she wants is seven years in the past.
With salacious and witty banter, a bad boy athlete in need of a career rescue, and an independent, kind-hearted fan turned caddy, Fan Girl Down had the making of a knockout read. Yet, as my first full Tessa Bailey novel (I did enjoy her novella Same Time Next Year), this fell short.
I proceed to read this book in less than a day! Our star, FMC Soléne, is a sexy, intelligent girl boss and divorcé pursued by Hayes Campbell, a 20 year old boy band sensation. Their whirlwind romance gave me such butterflies that I could not put this book down (maybe I have been listening to So High School too much, but it was just #swoon).
So I went into this booking with high expectations and found it to be just above average. There was flirting, witty conversations, and a man ultimately head over heels for his woman. I wanted to book it to completely take my mind off the psychological thrillers I have been reading lately, and this completely did the trick.
The chemistry and banter between these two 30-somethings is fresh and funny, and the spice is on fire! Just what I needed to get me out of my reading rut!
Additionally, both main characters are physicians, shifters, and rare forms of their species (omega and alpha, respectively). If you are unfamiliar with shifters (aka werewolves), this book has little to no world-building; I would not consider it true paranormal or fantasy.
