5 ☆ if I could give this book MORE I would. I enjoyed this story from start to finish, and honestly I agree with and approve of what the main character is doing. Sometimes bad people don't deserve jail but something worse.
The audiobook was great, the narrator did a good job. Easy to listen to and understand, I will definitely be buying this book when it's released.

Cassie has done it once again! She's made me fall in love with someone who doesn't exist. Gosh! This story could be triggering for some people, so please read the TW before reading. The storyline alternates between present and past with dual POVs. I highly enjoyed this story.

The audiobook is great. The narrator did a great job telling the story, and it was easy to listen to and understand what they were saying.

Listen, Rome is my new book boyfriend! If standing on business was a person, it would be Rome! This is a re-release with new cover art and pages with designs, and I am here for it! I will definitely be ordering myself a copy.
This story will give you all the FEELS, EMOTIONS, etc. I enjoyed this story so much. It will be a comfort read for me. The messiness this storyline gives is laugh-out-loud funny. I annotated so many paragraphs. Not to mention I devoured this book in one day!

Dorothy gets dropped onto a strange planet only to fall for not one, but two, aliens. If you enjoyed Kimberly Lemming's first series, "Mead Mishaps," you will enjoy this new upcoming series called "Cosmic Chaos," from her. This cover art is gorgeous ❤️ and I would love to see it as a special edition! I love the Wizard of Oz references! And it features a dinosaur 🦕, major points in my eyes!

Two lies and a lord is book four in the seduction series. Daisy is a very native young lady who falls for a man who is 7 years old. She has also grown accustomed to thinking of Lord Miles Devin as a man who can solve any problem, so when her half-sister Belle is left in a basket at her door, she turns to Miles, hoping he can save Belle from an orphanage.
The audiobook was good. The narrator did a good job telling the story and was easy to listen to.

Hooked from beginning to end! In the beginning, the Theodosia Balfour character was very insufferable, but once you start the semi-healing journey with her, you start to understand her a lot more, and honestly, I felt for you and could really relate to her. Wild! The twists and turns were *chef's kiss*. Highly recommend.
The audiobook was great. I couldn't stop listening. If I didn't have to go to bed, I would have listened to this story in one day. The narrator did a great job. She was easy to listen to and understand, and I could listen to her forever.
