Review: The True Love Experiment by Christina Lauren
The True Love Experiment by Christina LaurenRomantic ComedyMay 16, 2023Gallery Books Review by Jen I’ve read some great books in recent months, but this one is hands down my favorite. I have to think it will be in my top three even at year end. It’s that good!! The True Love Experiment by Christina Lauren is a follow up to The Soulmate Equation. BUT, I didn’t read that book and this definitely stands on it’s own. Now I’m putting the first book on my TBR list. Where to Continue Reading
Review: Meet Me at the Lake by Carley Fortune
Meet Me at the Lake by Carley FortuneContemporary RomanceMay 2, 2023Berkley Review by Jen I was so excited to get an ARC of the latest book by Carley Fortune. I absolutely adored Every Summer After. And this book had the same second chance romance swoony summer vibes. Meet Me at the Lake features Fern Brookbanks and Will Baxter. Fern grew up the child of a single mother living at a good old fashioned Dirty Dancing style lake resort in Canada, owned by her family. Will grew up Continue Reading
Review: Happy Place by Emily Henry
Happy Place by Emily HenryContemporary Romance/WF04/25/2023 by BerkleyARC Review by Angela I'm unsure what kind of magic this author weaves through her pages as she's writing, but I am always desperate to get a copy of every new release. When I do, I immediately open and devour every word. Emily Henry is my latest must-read author and I can't get enough of her voice. Happy Place is labeled as both a contemporary romance and a women's fiction novel. And I agree wholeheartedly with Continue Reading

Review: Ana María and the Fox by Liana De la Rosa
Ana María and the Fox by Liana De la RosaHistorical Romance April 4, 2023Berkley Review by Melanie I’ve really been leaning hard into historical romances in the past few months. They’ve brought me comfort and a sense of escapism during a personally difficult time in my life. I’ve been lucky enough to discover brand new authors (Erin Langston) and new-to-me authors (Lorraine Heath) and also revisited familiar favorites (Beverly Jenkins). Liana De la Rosa is not a debut author, she has Continue Reading
Review: Devil of Dublin by BB Easton
Devil of Dublin by BB EastonMafia Romance/Gothic RomanceSeptember 22, 2022Art by Easton Review by Jen When I think of BB Easton, I immediately go to the Netflix series, Sex/Life. I realize she's written MANY books, but this is always my first thought. I started watching the series with my husband, and just couldn’t stick with it. The eyeball rolls from the hubs were just too much to take for me. Although, there is that one scene. If you know, you know ;) Devil of Dublin by BB Continue Reading
Review: Love Thy Brother by Garrett Leigh
Love Thy Brother by Garrett LeighRebel Kings MC #4LGBTQ+ Contemporary RomanceMarch 29, 2023 by Fox Love Press Reviewed by Kate H. Garrett Leigh’s Rebel Kings MC series is unrelenting in the best of ways, and the fourth and latest installment, Love Thy Brother, is no exception. The recommendation to read it as part of the series and not a standalone is a wise one. For one, Leigh doesn’t do a lot of background at the beginning of the novel to catch Continue Reading
