Contemporary Romance: The Worst Best Man by Mia Sosa- You know that feeling of frustration you get when you are reading a really great book and you are in the middle of a part where you can hardly take your eyes off the page because you need to know what happens next and suddenly life interrupts?

This book had it all Continue Reading
Kini’s Favorite Books of 2020
2020 brought us many, many challenges. But the one thing that remained a constant reprieve for me from the challenges were books. I didn’t read as many as I hoped. I didn’t love as many as I usually do, but still the books were there when I needed them. I had a hard time coming up with this list for many reasons. The list doesn’t represent the “best” books but rather the ones I loved the most because they brought me joy and happiness while I read them. In no particular Continue Reading
Angela’s Mid-Year Update: My Favorites of 2020 So Far
Contemporary Romance/WF The Worst Best Man by Mia Sosa- Enemies to lovers is not my favorite trope, but this book worked for me in almost every way.

Kini’s Friday Kisses- Mini reviews for He’s Come Undone Romance anthology, and books by Emily Henry, Tash Skilton, and Kwana Jackson
I’ve been fortunate to get lost in some really good books lately. He’s Come Undone Romance Anthology by Adriana Herrera, Emma Barry, Olivia Dade, Ruby Lang, and Cat Sebastian. Here’s a little about each of the stories in the order they appear in the book. Appassionata by Emma Barry- This story is about a pianist and a piano tuner.

Kini’s Most Anticipated Reads 2020
First I want to mention that almost all of the books that I am excited about are from traditional publishers because they typically release information about new books several months in advance. If you are indie or self publishing a book, we would love to know about it sooner rather than later so we can get it on our radar! Our request form does not require an ARC. Second, most of these books are from the first half of 2020, with a few from the second half as publishing hasn’t released much Continue Reading
