Tempting Promises by Corinne Michaels

5.0

Corinne always delivers heartfelt emotion, epic swoons, and the most charming characters. The Whitlock family is pinnacle Corinne Charm. I can not get enough of this delicious and endearing family! Tempting Promises is a complete delight. Enemies to lovers meets small town meets snowed in magic. Gah, I swooned and sighed and fell so hard.

Rowan. OH MY . This man is so delicious, and he's trying real hard to take my top hero spot. His enemies to lovers tension with his neighbor Charlotte is just chef's kiss. Corinne builds the perfect dynamic between them- still light and fun but also intense. And their banter is off the charts. I love how Rowan gets under Charlotte's skin, how these two push each other's buttons. It makes the heat between them palpable, and when things get smexy, it's explosive!

I love the snowed in/only one bed (here only one SLEEPING BAG LOL)- it takes the already close proximity of these two to the next level. But I loved most of all when they melted (pun intended). Seeing Rowan care for Charlotte, seeing them fall and their feelings evolve. The chemistry evovles naturally and sweetly. Adored them together.

I can't believe we're at the end of the series- with only one book left. But I can't wait for Brynlee's story next!
