Review: The Ex Vows by Jessica Joyce

July 17, 2024 by Angela 1 Comment

The Ex Vows by Jessica JoyceContemporary RomanceJuly 16, 2024- BerkleyARC Review by Angela Y'all, this book wrecked me. I mean I had high expectations after reading this author's previous release, You, With a View, but I had no idea how utterly ruined I would be after reading. This is a second chance romance, which admittedly is one of my favorite tropes. Maybe because these books have the potential to be so emotionally messy. Maybe because I love seeing people in love make their Continue Reading

Review: The Love of My Afterlife by Kirsty Greenwood

July 4, 2024 by Angela 3 Comments

The Love of My Afterlife by Kirsty GreenwoodGhost PNR RomanceJuly 2, 2024 by BerkleyARC Review by Angela I have a lot of luck with quirky romances that don't really fit into a specific genre. When I read the blurb for The Love of My Afterlife, I thought that it seemed like something that would be right up my alley. This book starts out when Delphie chokes on a burger and wakes up to find herself in a processing center for the afterlife. There she meets Merritt, her afterlife Continue Reading

Spotlight- The Love of My Afterlife by Kirsty Greenwood

July 1, 2024 by Angela Leave a Comment

The Love of My Afterlife by Kirsty GreenwoodContemporary Paranormal RomanceJuly 2, 2024- Berkley About THE LOVE OF MY AFTERLIFE If she wasn’t dead already, Delphie would be dying of embarrassment. Not only did she just die by choking on a microwaveable burger, but now she’s standing in her ‘shine like a star’ nightie in front of the hottest man she’s ever seen. And he’s smiling at her. As they start to chat, everything else becomes background noise. That is until someone Continue Reading

Review: A Novel Love Story by Ashley Poston

June 27, 2024 by Angela 1 Comment

A Novel Love Story by Ashley PostonContemporary Romance/Magical Realism/Women's FictionJune 25, 2024- BerkleyARC Review by Angela I went into A Novel Love Story with an open mind, as I do with any Ashley Poston novel. This author's books are so very unique, I'm not even sure how to categorize them when I'm writing my reviews. So far she's tackled main protagonists who can see the dead (and fall in love with them), slips back and forth in time, and now a book about getting stranded in Continue Reading

June 17, 2024 by Angela Leave a Comment

The Art of Catching Feelings by Alicia ThompsonContemporary RomanceJune 18, 2024 by Berkley About THE ART OF CATCHING FEELINGS Daphne Brink doesn’t follow baseball but watching “America’s Snoozefest” certainly beats sitting at home days after her divorce papers are signed. After one too many ballpark beers, she heckles Carolina Battery player Chris Kepler, who quickly proves there might actually be some crying in baseball. Horrified, Daphne reaches out to Chris on social media to Continue Reading

Review: Isabel and the Rogue by Liana De la Rosa

June 5, 2024 by Melanie Leave a Comment

Isabel and the Rogue by Liana De la RosaHistorical RomanceJune 4, 2024 by Berkley Review by Melanie The first book in the Luna Sisters trilogy was such a delight last year (you can find my review of it here) that I was eagerly anticipating the 2nd book in the series and let me just say, it did not disappoint. Isabel and the Rogue is the story of Isabel Luna, the middle sister, quiet and slightly awkward and overlooked in favor of her much more vicious younger sister.  But Continue Reading
