Review: First Comes Like by Alisha Rai

February 16, 2021Leave a comment

Four Stars Are you in the market for a slow burn romance starring one of the sweetest heroes I've read in a long time? OF COURSE YOU ARE. Alisha Rai somehow wrote a book that started with catfishing and made me like it. Magic. It helps that the hero wasn't the catfisher. Someone pretending to … Continue reading Review: First Comes Like by Alisha Rai

Review: The Worst Best Man by Mia Sosa

February 10, 2021Leave a comment

4.5 Stars Only Mia Sosa can make me laugh and absolutely go with a trope that rarely works with me. The hero and love interest in THE WORST BEST MAN is the brother of the heroine’s former fiancé. It just gets weird for me if I think too hard about it! Lina and Max are … Continue reading Review: The Worst Best Man by Mia Sosa

Review: Like Lovers Do by Tracey Livesay

February 5, 2021Leave a comment

Four Stars I was nervous going into LIKE LOVERS DO by Tracey Livesay. Friends to lovers is a hard trope to pull off in a romance novel. Readers want to see the chemistry between the characters, and I’ve found some friends to lovers books lack that spark. Well, let me assure you, Dr. Nicole Allen … Continue reading Review: Like Lovers Do by Tracey Livesay

Review: Flirting with Forever by Cara Bastone

January 26, 2021Leave a comment

Five Stars Dear Cara Bastone, thank you for writing one of my favorite books of 2021 in January. A heck of a way to kick off the year! FLIRTING WITH FOREVER, and I am not exaggerating, made me smile, swoon, and believe in love again. When I read the synopsis, I knew I would adore … Continue reading Review: Flirting with Forever by Cara Bastone

Review: Driven by Rebecca Zanetti

January 25, 2021Leave a comment

Five Stars I was so worried the relationship between Nari and Angus in DRIVEN wouldn’t live up to my expectations after three books of building sexual tension. I am happy to report that not only did Rebecca Zanetti meet my expectations, she also knocked them out of the park! Zanetti has been masterfully weaving the … Continue reading Review: Driven by Rebecca Zanetti

Review: Claiming the Rancher’s Heir by Maisey Yates

January 24, 2021Leave a comment

Four Stars Maisey Yates does enemies to lovers so, so well. It's just a fact! This book was about rival vineyard owners, Wren and Creed. Wren's family business has just gone through total upheaval after her father's misdeeds came to light. To continue developing the company brand, Wren needs to partner with Creed's family vineyard, … Continue reading Review: Claiming the Rancher’s Heir by Maisey Yates

Review: Tools of Engagement by Tessa Bailey

January 11, 2021Leave a comment

4.5 Stars Ummm, I loved this book. I don't miss sleep for many things, but I started TOOLS OF ENGAGEMENT right before bed, stayed up too late reading, then woke up early so I could finish before work. WORTH IT! If you've read the two previous standalone books in the series as I have, you've … Continue reading Review: Tools of Engagement by Tessa Bailey

Review: Immortal Angel by Lynsay Sands

January 5, 2021Leave a comment

4.5 Stars I freaking love the Argeneau series. It’s one of those rare paranormal series you don’t have to read in order (in my opinion). Sure, you’d probably understand more if you jumped in during one of the earlier books, but I read this whole series out of order, just picking up a book here … Continue reading Review: Immortal Angel by Lynsay Sands

Review: Dream Chaser by Kristen Ashley

December 15, 2020Leave a comment

Four Stars This series is classic Kristen Ashley: commandos, wacky heroines, over the top drama, and Colorado landmarks. I love it! DREAM CHASER was a fun addition to the series. Lots of your favorite characters make cameo appearances, but Ryn and Boone (the most KA names EVER) were definitely at the book's center. Ryn is … Continue reading Review: Dream Chaser by Kristen Ashley

Review: Mine to Keep by Rhenna Morgan

December 14, 2020Leave a comment

Four Stars I had almost given up on finding a new mafia romance series I really love (most of the ones I enjoy were written in the early 2010s), and then Rhenna Morgan gave us the NOLA Knights series! Sexy Russian ex-pats who protect New Orleans, have their own moral code, and fall head-over-heels for … Continue reading Review: Mine to Keep by Rhenna Morgan

About Romance Reader

Hi Romance Peeps! My name is Teresa and I am a self-proclaimed romance aficionado with a BA in English and PR. My “real” job involves a grab bag of communications and community relations for a large nonprofit in the DC area. I probably read 5-7 romance novels a week. I take grave exception to people calling romance novels “smut” or “trash”. My #1 romance novel of all time forever and ever amen is “Dreaming of You” by Queen Lisa Kleypas. Read my posts to learn more about me, but mostly to hear my thoughts about romance novels new and old. Love you all!
