What to expect: 
- actor turned werewolf +  former fangirl 
- reverse grumpy x sunshine

- small town 
- age gap 
- slow burn 

Chase โ€˜Redโ€™ Thompson is one hell of a man! ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿป

What to expect: 
- dirty talking cowboy 
- FMC with PCOS + Hashimotoโ€™s 
- one night stand 
- accidental pregnancy 
- childhood frenemies to lovers 
- all the potatoes 
- friend with benefits 
- found family

Love a good revenge plot, even if this was a little OTT ๐Ÿคฃ

What to expect:
- research scientist + engineer
- workplace romance
- opposites attract
- cute nicknames
- revenge plot
- โœจ GLITTER โœจ 

Despite both Tucker and Deo having a lot of trauma and baggage, their romance and story was actually very sweet and had little to no angst. It was just all around sweet and swoony, even if a bit too fast paced, but I loved them together so much! 

Per usual, I loved the disability rep in EMโ€™s books, itโ€™s just always so well done, and I learned about sled hockey which seems cool as shit. 

What to expect:
  • drunken Vegas shenanigans 
  • disabled MC
  • strangers to lovers 
  • jock + nerd 
  • instant connection
  • para-hockey/sled hockey 
  • found family 
  • ex-boyfriend drama 



I'm on the fence on this one. 

Dubbed as a paranormal romance, I was expecting, well, more romance. 

A Simple Twist of Fate focuses more on the town of Fates Haven--which is very Hallmark meets Halloweentown, with tons of found family goodness and friend shenanigans, more so than Harry and Jax's fated mate romance. 

Which, overall, was fine, as I never really bought into their romance anyway, and was definitely more invested in finding Grace's dad and the friend group as a whole.

To put it bluntly, Harry and Jax lacked chemistry. Like a lot. 

There wasn't enough angst and pining, and everyone seems to forgive Harry so easily (especially Jax) for pulling a runner and disappearing for the last thirteen years all because her feelings got hurt and she didn't wait around to learn the truth for herself. (I HATE THE MISCOMMUNICATION TROPE!!!!)

Honestly, I just wish everyone would have made her work for it (again, especially Jax) instead of ushering her back into town and their lives with arms wide open, but I digress.

A Simple Twist of Fate was cute, and does wrap up nicely with its eventual fairytale happy ending and conclusion to all the other shenanigans going on in Fates Haven... I just wanted (and expected) more.

What to expect:
- witch + alpha shifter
- kooky but close-knit small town  
- found family
- second chance romance
- fated mates


Should I have read Strong Side first? Probably. 
Did I feel like I missed anything? Not really.

Overall I really enjoyed Jax and Theo's story, but the pacing and time jumps weren't my favorite. 

What to expect: 
- volleyball player + athletic trainer
- sports romance
- age gap
- forbidden romance 
- marriage of convenience
- cheating (not between MCs)
- pan + bi rep
- primal play
- light stalking
