Thank you NetGalley for the E-arc in exchange for an honest review.

I loved Chrysantha as our narrator for this book, she is cunning and a bit diabolical but you can’t help but root for her and her schemes. The story felt a little all over the place at times, and I felt the ending wrapped up to quickly and easily.

This was just a cute, quick read! I read it so quickly, i couldn’t put it down. I loved Indya and West as characters, the dual timeline really worked in this book normally I’m not a fan of when the author uses the past in books but it was done really well here. I’ll never say no to a cowboy romance!

This was such an interesting and unique concept for a book, however the story missed the mark for me. There just wasn’t enough chemistry between Eileen and Anders, it felt like they developed feelings for one another a bit too quickly and a little out of nowhere.

I’m a bit conflicted by this book, it seemed like the type of book I would enjoy and I was fully sold on the idea of a book where the characters are working on a luxury yacht, but the whole book felt very messy and chaotic- from the characters to some of the writing.

I loved this! This is my first time reading from  the author Liana De la Rosa and reading this book has really encouraged me to read more from her. I loved the history from the time the book takes place in, the world felt a lot more accessible to read about than some other books I’ve read that are also set in the same periods. The tension and the pining between Isabel and Sirius was immaculate!

This book was so good, not only is the cover absolutely gorgeous but the story of Tiwa and Said rekindling their friendship and working together to save the Islamic centre was just so enjoyable to read about. Tiwa and Said were amazing characters, reading from their POV’s felt so genuine and I really liked that took a while for open up to one another instead of them just making up instantly. I do wish that the conflict with Said’s sister was developed a bit, it felt like that situation worked itself out too quickly. But overall, this was such a stunning story written by two incredible authors!

This was such a heartwarming read, the main thing I loved was Cassie and her group of friends - they were so supportive of one another  and had each others back. Levi was honestly perfect, I loved how encouraging he was of Cassie and everything about her. This book was a great insight into cochlear implants, something I feel a lot of people (including myself) don’t know anything about and the authors did a really good job of explaining how they work, also loved how sign language was used throughout the book.

This was my first time to read a book by Tarah DeWitt and this has pushed me to read the rest of her books! I loved Sage she was just so endearing and loving she was. Fisher was so sweet and funny. I loved the banter they had together and just how they treated and communicated with one another.

I loved this book, as someone who is very new to Formula 1 this book is the perfect read! I loved Willow and Dev, I’m a sucker for childhood friends to lovers and I really liked how it was done in this book. They were just so cute and I loved their communication together. Such a cute read

This was a cute romance book that I could imagine myself reading at the beach, definitely a great book to read on your holiday. The pacing is really good, the book jumps into the main plot of story straight away. I do think the writing was good, however I think some parts were a bit long-winded and could have used some editing down. I adored Emerson and Theo, they are fantastic characters who you really want to root for throughout the book.
