Bossman by Vi Keeland
4.0
rating: 4
spice: 1.5
i thought this was gonna be a cutesy fluffy book with dirty talk sprinkled in, but i was wrong. this book had so many emotional and sad parts and i became a wreck.
i love reese and chase together, they’re so perfect for each other — from the way they met, to their banter, all the way to their forever.
i normally am not a fan of dual timeline, but this one was done so well. i liked seeing chase’s life before reese and what shaped him to be the man he is now. it was so sad what happened to him, and i couldn’t help but to feel the guilt he was carrying.
definitely 10/10 would recommend if you like:
- boss x employee
- he falls first
- tragic pasts
- jealous mmc

SANDRO MF ROSSI!!! i have no words because i am absolutely obsessed with him and bianca. they are absolutely perfect together and i love that they've known each other since they were kids.
there was so much going on and i didn't want to stop reading just to find out what was gonna happen next. the ending was CRAZY, because i was not expecting that. i'm glad they got their happily ever after though, they deserve it~

i read this book when it first came out a couple years back, and now i'm rereading the new version! and it's now in first-person pov which i was very excited about. since it's been a couple years, reading this felt like the first time.
i am absolutely obsessed with cade and kara! i now have to do a reread of the second book, breakaway.
willow prescott never misses and i am so glad to be on her arc team. i'm also loving this brand new cover. this book has a lot of dark themes so make sure to read the TWs before proceeding.

One Last Wish by B.L. Wilde
Did not finish book. Stopped at 1%.

the fmc gave a lot of “pick-me” vibes and the writing really didn’t start out too strong. reminded me of stories i would read on wattpad when i was 14. 😭
Burning Ember by Darby Briar
4.0
rating: 4
spice: 2
i did enjoy this story, but all the talks about religion felt out of place and was very off-putting.
i haven’t really read any MC romances before and i loved the way ember & mav were written. ember has been through so much and i’m so glad that she was able to make it through and be happy. she deserves the entire world. 🥹
there were a lot of side characters that i absolutely fell in love with and i’m hoping i get to see a certain couple with their own book. 👀

When Hearts Awaken by Victoria Lum

this book was dark, not like dark romance. but in terms of dark themes.
my girl taylor has been through the wringer. 😭 she’s had some awful things happen to her as a child (read TWs please) and she’s come out so strong on the other side. i am so happy she found charles, even though their meeting didn’t happen on the best of terms.
this really had me on the edge of my seat wondering what was going to happen next. there were a lot of subplots in this book, but they were all woven together beautifully. i can’t wait to read more of her books!
