Why should Young Adult novels corner the market on coming of age stories? This was an adult coming of age story for our heroine Naomi and I loved watching her journey to find herself. Let me just say, runaway brides are not my usual jam. There have been a select few I've truly enjoyed and … Continue reading Review: Runaway Girl by Tessa Bailey

Review: The Good Luck Charm by Helena Hunting
The Good Luck Charm is the first romance novel I've recently read that felt more like a young/new adult novel when the characters were in their late twenties. That might not be a problem for many people.

Matt is a … Continue reading Review: Hard Sell by Lauren Layne

Review: Through the Fire by Katie Ruggle
**3.5 Stars** Caution: Do not start this book right before bed or you won't get enough sleep because you have to read it cover to cover. Speaking from personal experience. As a long time Katie Ruggle fan, I was highly anticipating Through the Fire. For the most part, Ms. Ruggle delivered. Kit, a petite, half … Continue reading Review: Through the Fire by Katie Ruggle
