This book is hot, hot, hot! I love Asa and Dex, they’re such good people. Their journey from hate to love is great, and with all their time together the chemistry is clear from the start. So, so good!

I loved this book! The whole series is just winner after winner. I was so curious about Carter’s story the whole time, and it was a great one!  Diana is just amazing, and they’re so good together.
The book is a chunky one, but I honestly didn’t feel like I was reading a 680 pager. Each word felt necessary! It had a great balance of romance and suspense, and it was great to have the team around without taking away from Carter and Diana. So good!

I love this book so much! Onyx and Theo are amazing, and they’re so cute together. The more serious topics balanced out the sweetness so well, it kept everything real and grounded. I also loved how much of the book was just the two of them, but it was also fun to have the guys of the other books pop up in the market scenes!

This book was amazing! I listened to the audiobook, and the narrators did such a good job making me feel everything they were feeling, the good and the bad. Their struggle felt so real and understandable, and I loved how both Leighton and Miles were handling everything. Such great characters! It was also fun to have their friends from the previous books popping in here and there without taking over the story, and I’m so curious about Tyler!

I absolutely loved the representation of someone dealing with hearing loss, so well done!

Ik wilde dit jaar wat vaker Nederlandse boeken lezen, en dan is de beste keuze natuurlijk Nederlandse auteurs! Ik kwam dit boek tegen bij de bieb en ben blij dat ik het heb gelezen. Goed verhaal, las makkelijk weg, erg leuk!

I loved this book so much! It was just what I needed after a couple slower paced reads, and I couldn’t be happier. I loved Connor’s growth throughout, and how everybody helped him without trying to push. And Parker is just the best! So happy we got another winner in the Puckboy series! <3

I love this town. I love this family. I love this book. I was so curious about Hux and Dolly in the previous books, and I'm so happy we have their story now! Their weekend away was just amazing, with all the swoon and steam you'd want, and their whole journey throughout the book to finally being a couple after being best friends so long was the best!

4.0

You can't go wrong with a Lucy Score book! This was another great read, filled with fun small town shenanigans and love. It also deals with more serious topics, and Cam even made me tear up several times. I would love to visit Story Lake one day, it sounds so much better than Dominion! It’s definitely slower paced, but not in a bad way. It's more like the difference in pace between the rush in a city small and the more relaxed pace of a small town.

I love the Bishops, Hazel, Zoey, and everyone in town, and I can’t wait to read more of their stories!

I love this series so much, each book is just so good! I’ve been curious about Jack’s story since he first appeared in the books, and I’m so happy for him now! This book was filled with suspense and love, everything I read Brittney Sahin books for. It was great to have the whole team there again, but it never distracted from Jack and Charley. Loved it!
