REVIEW: The Rule Book by Sarah Adams
Kaitlyn‘s review of The Rule Book by Sarah Adams
Contemporary Romance published by Dell 2 Apr 24
If you loved The Cheat Sheet, as I did, there’s no way you won’t adore this one too. It is so easy to binge, and the guy friend group is honestly the best part of these books. When they get together, I can’t help but grin like crazy. I am going to imagine every football bro interaction is like this and no one can change my mind.

REVIEW: Hold Me by Tawna Fenske
Sandy M’s review of Hold Me (Cherry Blossom Lake, Book 3) by Tawna Fenske
Contemporary Romance published by Tawna Fenske 8 Mar 24
I’m thinking I have to retract my comments not too long ago that Try Me, the first book in the series, didn’t work for me. After reading this one, along with Book 2, Charm Me, I now imagine it was my mood or whatever was going on in life that kept me from enjoying that first story. The initial few chapters of this book kept me chuckling and laughing. Who knew hunting for razor clams could be so sexual – even when our Zoe doesn’t realize she’s already got her hooks into poor Cal, who doesn’t stand a chance now that his right woman has come along.

Young Adult published by Wednesday Books 7 Sep 21
This is a love letter to Adrienne Young’s writing. You can tell the amount of work and effort that goes into her books. I really feel as if I am transported into the world of the Narrows and the Unnamed Sea each time I pick up one of her books.
