2.5 Stars I hate writing a review when my main problem with the book is the heroine. When I don't like a heroine in a romance novel, I always try to take a step back and figure out why she bothered me within the context of her own romance. In this book, the heroine is … Continue reading Review: Well Matched by Jen DeLuca

Review: Last Seen Alone by Laura Griffin
Three Stars Romantic suspense is one of my favorite romance subgenres, so I added Laura Griffin to my must-read lists. I have enjoyed her books in the past, but this one sits solidly on my “it’s fine” list. LAST SEEN ALONE follows a lawyer heroine who fights for the victims of online abuse and a … Continue reading Review: Last Seen Alone by Laura Griffin
Review: All the Feels by Olivia Dade
Three Stars This book was... fine. I wish I had more to say about it. Olivia Dade is undoubtedly an excellent writer, but I just haven't found the right book in her backlist to click with me. ALL THE FEELS is a Hollywood romance featuring a misbehaving actor and the woman hired by the studio … Continue reading Review: All the Feels by Olivia Dade
Review: How to Find a Princess by Alyssa Cole
Two Stars I didn’t know Alyssa Cole could write a boring book, but I am very sad to be proven wrong with HOW TO FIND A PRINCESS. Now, I love her, but no author is perfect, and this book just didn’t work for me – it might work for someone else! As always, Cole’s main … Continue reading Review: How to Find a Princess by Alyssa Cole
Review: Much Ado About You by Samantha Young
Two Stars I am a big fan of Samantha Young, and MUCH ADO ABOUT YOU sounded like a "me" book. A single woman burned by love and fed up with dating heads to England to run a bookstore? Yes, please! Sadly, the execution didn't work for me in any way. Now, if you've read a … Continue reading Review: Much Ado About You by Samantha Young
Review: Rosaline Palmer Takes the Cake by Alexis Hall
Four Stars I had a hard time rating this book, but Alexis Hall's writing is so dang good, I just can't give ROSALINE PALMER TAKE THE CAKE anything less than four stars. I am so, so happy I was warned that this book was more general/women's fiction than romance. I set my expectations accordingly, and … Continue reading Review: Rosaline Palmer Takes the Cake by Alexis Hall
Review: Battle Royal by Lucy Parker
Five Stars Please believe me when I tell you this is one of the most delightful books I have ever read. Funny, cute, unexpected, and adorably romantic, BATTLE ROYAL by Lucy Parker exceeded all my rom-com hopes and dreams! If you don’t know by now, a starchy, uptight character paired with a fun-loving, chaos demon … Continue reading Review: Battle Royal by Lucy Parker
Review: Lucky Leap Day by Ann Marie Walker
1.5 Stars I am giving this book half a star because it started out so promising! LUCKY LEAP DAY is my first book by Ann Marie Walker, so I went in blind hoping for the best. Our heroine was recently dumped by a cheating boyfriend and decided to take their trip for two to Dublin, … Continue reading Review: Lucky Leap Day by Ann Marie Walker
Review: The Love Con by Seressia Glass
Four Stars I loved these two oblivious nerds! THE LOVE CON by Seressia Glass was the lovely, low-angst romance I needed in my life at the moment. Set with a reality show backdrop, this friends to lovers, fake dating romance novel was a fun, quick read with imperfect characters you can really root for. Kenya, … Continue reading Review: The Love Con by Seressia Glass
Review: I Hate You More by Lucy Gilmore
4.5 Stars Let me preface this review by saying I am a dog lover, and I’m incredibly close with my grandmother, who lives in senior housing, so, in many ways, it felt like Lucy Gilmore wrote this book just for me! It’s a surprising contemporary romance with a former pageant queen heroine turned senior citizen … Continue reading Review: I Hate You More by Lucy Gilmore
