Funny Feelings is a sweet romance between Farley a stand up comedian and Meyer her best friend/manager who is a single dad (and former stand up comedian). I decided to give this book a chance after seeing it pop up all over the place as one of the most underrated romances of 2022. While this book wasn’t quite the smash hit for me as it was for others- it left me wanting more out of the story. That being said I enjoyed this book it was a solid read. This book hit lots of tropes- single dad, workplace, friends to lovers, and fake dating but I think it could’ve been stronger focusing in on two of those. I still would recommend this book for anyone looking for some sweetness.

I really enjoyed reading this book! I loved Garrett- he was so patient, gentle, and supportive to Jennie and really worked at meeting her needs. They built a strong foundation of friendship and trust. Just like in book 1, I love the scenes when the group is all together they’re so fun. My only gripe is that the book didn’t have to be quite this long. Despite that, I honestly couldn’t put it down. I can’t wait for Adam’s story in book 3!

Wow, Tik Tok got it right with this one! I really really enjoyed reading this book. I absolutely adore Carter, he’s just a big golden retriever MMC who is obsessed with the FMC. I liked Olivia as well she works hard to overcome her anxiety and insecurities and really learn to trust and communicate with Carter. I appreciated that we really got to see growth from both Olivia and Carter through their journey as a couple. I will say this book did not need to be this long, with some editing an equally strong story could have been portrayed. That being said I Ioved this book, it was smutty and had a lot of heart! I definitely recommend reading Consider Me!

A solid ending to the Honey Mountain series! I really like Dylan- she is an interesting character, she’s vulnerable and caring but at the same time she’s tough and takes no shit. I enjoyed the journey Dylan and Wolf went on from workplace enemies to frenemies with benefits to a full on couple. As always I love the dynamic and bond all the Thomas sisters have, their scenes are always my favorites. I really liked this series and would recommend!

Another solid edition of the Honey Mountain series! I liked Charlie and Ledger, I think their relationship had an interesting progression. Truly the star of this book was Nan and I desperately need a prequel involving her own love story!! I wish this book had more scenes with all of the sisters because I just love their dynamic. I can’t wait to see how the series ends!

I absolutely loved this book, easily my favorite in the series thus far! I loved Ashlan and Jace both as individuals and together. Ashlan is the sweetest I adored her dynamic with Paisley and Hadley. Jace was doing the most, he is a top tier small town single dad. I enjoyed the progression of their relationship. I’m not one to usually cry when reading books but this one had me going through it during the 3rd act conflict. This book is perfect for fans of Melanie Harlow particularly Ignite or Irresistible. I would 100% recommend this book!

I enjoyed Hawk and Everly’s story, they are a couple you immediately find yourself rooting for! I thought Hawk was the sweetest and really loved seeing the effort and care he put in to breaking down Everly’s walls. I felt that Everly’s response to her grief was very realistically portrayed. Much like in Book 1 of this series, some of my favorite scenes were all of the sisters chatting together. I am excited to continue with this series!

I enjoyed reading this book, the first by this author! I liked Vivian and Niko and appreciated the arc of their relationship. They genuinely cared so deeply for each other. I think this was a really solid first book for a series and I am interested to see how the author’s writing progresses. Honorable mention to all the Thomas sisters who are so fun, I can’t wait to read their stories!

A solid ending to a fabulous series! I really enjoyed Griffin and Nadia’s story. The tension and pining between these two will have you in knots for them. This one will give you a little banxiety at first but totally worth it. One thing I really appreciate it that both Griffin and Nadia put in the work to overcome their issues and to ensure that they are building a strong foundation for their relationship. I totally would recommend this book and series!

Wow, this book is my favorite in the series! I loved Mira and Stefan’s story. They had great banter and chemistry from the start that made their journey to friendship and more through a little fake dating deal all the more satisfying. Stefan was so misunderstood, I truly enjoyed his POV- the pining!! Mira was a badass and I loved how strong she was. This book was a great balance of emotions, romcom banter, and spice. I absolutely would recommend this book, a must read!
