Never Cross a Highlander by Lisa Rayne

4.0

This is my first time reading a historical romance but the cover got me first then the description. You will not be disappointed.
This Book follows Ailsa Connery. She is enslaved in Stirling castle and is planning an escape. After years of planning her escape, her plans are destroyed by the coming of a fierce highland warrior.

Alisa and Kallum’s chemistry was off the charts. Natural enemies to lovers. The two are headstrong and mirror each other in some ways. Of course the person you claim to not like gets under your skin until you get to know them and feelings arise. The close proximity helped to garner their relationship. I just ate it all up.

What I loved
I love the POC representation in medieval times.
I loved Kallum period. He was fierce and committed to free the enslaved people.

What I didn’t like
I didn’t like the pace of the story. It took me a couple of days to read because of that.
I didn’t like the ending because it seemed rushed.

Overall this was a 4.5 star read for me and I look forward to reading more like this in the future.

Thank you to Entangled Publishing LLC and Net Galley for the opportunity to read this ebook in exchange for an honest review.

Snow King

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Noelle’s friends talk her into to getting away for the holidays and take time for herself after ending her 3 year relationship with her cheating ex. Before she could talk herself out of it , Noelle books a last minute trip to Mistletoe Mountain and is ready to enjoy this joys of Christmas time.
Snow is always in a bad mood around Christmas due to several losses that have basically turned him into a grinch. He takes trips every year around this time to get away from the celebrations of the season. When his assistant books a trip to Mistletoe Mountain things heat up from there.
Although Noelle and Snow’s first meeting was unexpected and ended up with one of them getting pepper sprayed. The attraction was instant. Noelle love of the season seemed to thaw Snow’s heart and he would do anything to keep the smile on her face. Snow is everything you’d want in a Book Bae.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. If A.E. Valdez writes it I’m gonna read it. The characters are gonna be well developed and relatable. You get the Christmas story but it’s so much more than that. This is a must read and I can’t wait for everyone else’s stories.
