I love this ranch. I love these people. I love everything about this book/series. The banter was great, the tension was great, the swoon was great. Everything was wonderful. So many sweet moments along with ones that made me kick my feet giggling and even tear up. Loved it all!

Loved returning to Lovelight Farms! This small town is so cozy. Loved Beckett and Evelyn and thought they were so sweet.

I liked Better than the Movies cause it was a high school setting. College romances aren't my favorite so I didn't click with this one as much as I hoped. I do enjoy Wes & Liz's banter so I liked seeing that again.

This was full of adventure and fun. I loved the characters and the plot. I'm a sucker for storylines with a handful of trials. This is a great intro to fantasy - kind of reminds me of Throne of Glass!
