Absolutely enjoyed this book.
Finally a book where not everything is perfect and loads of things were relatable. It was great to see written down that not every marriage is a happy marriage even though people stick with each other and it can take one person for you to realise how much you’ve missed out, because you’ve put other people first.
There was also mentioned how double standards work and what we sadly see every day.
I was also expecting a not very happy ending due to the way the book was going, but we did get it in the end. It was nice, but I wouldn’t mind it not ending badly 🤷♀️ sometimes there doesn’t have to be a happy ending.
The authors writing was great and entertaining.
Thank you to The Nerd Fam and the author for gifting me this book!

This was a brilliant quick read full of spice! 🌶️
Aspen wouldn’t normally want to do anything with a hockey player, because her brother is one and her father would be disappointed, but she made an exception with Duke… A player of her brother’s rival team.
Duke is currently fake dating his coach’s daughter, because it helps them both socially, but as soon as he spotted Aspen, he knew he had to change things…
There is passion, betrayal and redemption in this book and it was also great to read a book where a woman initiated the act. She definitely knew what she wanted and nothing was stopping her in getting it.
Oh and chapter 21?🥵🌶️
Thank you to the authors for gifting me this book! 🖤

This book took me longer than I would like, because it turned out to be a really great story full of awesome plot twists!
Declan took being obsessed to a whole another level and even though he was a softie throughout most of the book, he also showed his baddie side and I am here for it!
Issa was a bit annoying at times, but the ending made me like her a lot. She’s had a strong character development and it was nice to see that.
I like the diversity of characters and the fact that the author included some issues that pop stars (not just women) have to deal with on daily basis.
Oh and did I mention he has a 🍆 piercing? 🥵
Thank you to the author and BookBabesPR for gifting me this book.
I am looking forward to reading more books from this author.

This book was a rollercoaster of emotions. I was a sobbing mess most of it…
Their love story was heartbreaking, but also full of redemption.
I couldn’t put the book down. The author gave it to us raw and you could absolutely relate to everything that was said.
Not only this book broke your heart, but it also showed you, how important friends are. Without them Tatum and Jake would never speak to each other again and Tatum wouldn’t be able to tell Jake the truth.
Please, do read the trigger warnings. I haven’t read them, because I didn’t want the story to be spoiled..but I wish I did. They are put in there for a reason.
I loved this book, because the author’s writing was kinda unique and really enjoyable. I am looking forward to her next book!

💕“We grieve many things. Loss of life. Loss of love. Loss of opportunity. And there’s no prescribed end date. Grief is forever. Work with your grief rather than against it. Allow it to become a part of you—to inspire you—until your grief is no longer in control.”💕

This book was my favourite of the three I’ve read in this series.
I loved Tony from book one. And Carolina is a perfect match for him. As they challenge each other!
There were times where I got really annoyed with the book and wanted to throw my kindle away, but eventually I had to keep reading to find out what happens!
The plot twists in this book were amazing and the ending got me.
We had some new characters showing in this book and I am excited to read about them in her next book!
🖤“I was gonna let them take me, but then I decided I didn’t even wanna die without you.” 🖤

This book was giving “The Mindf*ck Series” vibe and I loved it!
How can a detective end up in a relationship with a serial killer? Easily.. just read Rose’s book!
Their story was funny and very cleverly written. I loved how he described murder scenes and there were many things pointing to him yet she didn’t put the puzzle together until the end.
There were many plot twists which made the book even more enjoyable.
Oh and the spice? Very SPICYYY 👀🥵🥵
I seriously couldn’t put the book down and managed to devour it within a few hours!
I have really enjoyed this book and I am looking forward to more of them!
Thank you to Rose for gifting me this book! I am so grateful to be on her team.
🖤“I might be new to long-term relationships, but I'm pretty sure showing your girlfriend your torture and sometimes kill chamber was a huge no-no, unless I wanted a prison sentence or planned to kill her, neither of which I had an inclination to.”🖤

This was yet another sweet romance from Evie Sterling. Her books never disappoint.
I really enjoyed this story in particular, because there was family redemption, pilot MC and great sibling dynamics.
Their progress from “friendship” to falling for each other was full of great banter and laughter.. but also full of drama due to Trent’s (Olivia’s brother) almost not happening wedding…
There were situations where I found myself relating to their family troubles and it was nice to see it being resolved. Which wasn’t a surprise, because we were supposed to get HEA from all characters…

If you want your heart broken and then put back together, read this book.
🌸 “Either from me calling your name in my sleep, or when they realize that the ghost of the girlfriend of the past will haunt me forever no matter how hard I try to move on.”🌸
Allie and Jake fell in love with each other when they were teenagers and both knew they were “IT” for one another… but due to some unfortunate circumstances, Allie was made to leave everything behind.
After 10 years, they meet again and as the story progresses, you get to find out what happened and of course, why it happened in the first place.
Their relationship was sweet when they were teenagers, but it’s even sweeter now that they are adults.
“When you know, you know”…. And it’s so true. Their story is very relatable and some parts were shocking.
Thank you to HaylingBookStorm and the author Ambar Cordova for gifting me this book to read. It was an absolutely enjoyable book.

This was my first book written by Emily Henry and it didn’t disappoint. I really enjoyed her writing style and the characters were so easy to fall in love with. It’s written with two timelines and we get to find out why and how their relationship falls apart. They also have a great bunch of friends that love them unconditionally, which makes one of them do something that might normally be for everyone… Thanks to the last trip together at the cottage, everyone says what they had on their chest all this time and relationships between them all got fixed. The ending wasn’t a surprise but it was still a lovely read.

First of all thank you to TheNerdFam and to the author for gifting me this book. I have really enjoyed reading it.
Stone and Emerson knew each other since their teenage years due to the fact that her brother was a teammate of Stone’s. Some unfortunate events happened and Stone was forced to leave his friendship with Cayden behind, which meant not seeing Emerson again.
After a few years Emerson unknowingly moved into an apartment straight across from Stone. She was an aspiring singer and he was a professional footballer.
Emerson’s agent had an idea that could help Emerson get a record label.. the idea was “Fake dating with Stone”..
It was a great idea until it wasn’t.. things got complicated and both kept getting confused.. but luckily it all went really well in the end..
Their story was sweet and enjoyable.
