Rating and review coming soon!

So glad we eventually got the story behind Shimmering Springs! Love Seth and Cal

"The racing pulse, the hammering heart, the uncertainty and fucking humanity of it all? If so, no wonder a majority were insufferable. Their emotions short-circuited their common sense, and now, I was one of those insufferable idiots. Whoever invented feelings deserved to be shot." -Alex Volkov

"Ava and I were the unlikeliest of couples. She was the bright sun to my cold moon, the optimist to my cynic, the rose to my thorn.
But if there was one thing she’d taught me, it was that sometimes, the most unexpected things in life were the most beautiful." -Alex Volkov



*I'm only reading specific authors but I am so happy to read this for a good cause*


Reviewing these as I read them in order of what I am most excited about:

The Shimmering Springs by Caroline Peckham and Suzanne Valenti: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️: purchased this anthology partly just to read these 2 chapters. As usual, the sisters leave so much to be desired (in terms of plot not writing). Loved this little sneak peek into a scene that has been hinted at in the main series. I do feel like someone reading this without the context of the larger series will be confused. Zodiac Academy fans know exactly how amazing these two chapters are though!! I cannot get enough of Seth and Caleb, even when they were pretentious assholes.

Love Your the Most by Carian Cole ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️: the second story I was most excited about to read in this anthology. Torn by Carian is one of my ALL TIME FAVORITE books and I have always wanted these scenes that are in this anthology. The novel grazed over this material and I always wanted to know what happened those first few days they were reunited. These chapters did NOT disappoint. Tor and Kenzie are perfection.

Buyer Beware…Disappointing

I know it was for a good cause but this was a rip off. This was nothing like it was promoted to be. I’m so disappointed. I feel like the readers were cheated because I didn’t find any short stories. This was a DNF for me. Why waste my time reading stuff that wont make any sense. Next time I wont preorder something like this.

Please support Ukraine and buy this book from a slew of amazing authors.

Alex and Ava are so cute!!

Purchased for a great cause! Contains a ton of authors with exclusive epilogues, bonus chapters, or alternate POVs. Highly recommend!

This anthology was published earlier in the year, and I’ve been casually reading it over time. This book is comprised of stories from our favorite romance authors. Sometimes the stories are bonus scenes, sometimes they are scenes to introduce new books, and sometimes they’re standalones. Regardless, they’re all entertaining. My favorite stories are by Brittany Sahin, Carian Cole, Amelia Wilde, Susan Stoker, and Siobhan Davis.

All profits from this book go to support the people of Ukraine, so I urge you to grab a copy for yourself. It’s well worth the cost.
