This series just keeps getting better. I love Layla and Caleb's story!! Their characters are so lovable and Caleb sounds like the cutest disaster. Their dates were so fun. I love seeing the characters from the series in the story and of course the phone free! This town is just so charming.

Thank you @hachetteaudio @libro.fm for a copy of this audiobook. I don't even know how to review this book. So many emotions. First of, the narration was amazing! I love the French and Irish accents. 

The story is so well told about a woman, Vincent, that learns of her husband's secret child through his latest books. She is mad and leaves for Paris to figure out her thoughts and meets Luop who is half her age and they are instantly attracted to each other. 

They tension and love scenes between Vincent and Luop was amazing!! 

I was frustrated with Cillian about not being open with his secret child and Vincent for not being honest with her husband about Luop. 

The story ends with an opened ending which of course...drives me nuts. I need closure.

An amazing follow up to Lovelight Farms and we get Bec and Evelyn's story. We know from the first book that they had a hot encounter and never saw each other again until Evelyn comes to help promote the farm. 

How can you not far in love with Bec with his gentle heart and caring ways. I love that he has a soft spot for abandon pets. 

Evelyn is at odds with her career and comes back to escape the social media job and figure out what to do. 

I love how caring and supportive they were if each other. The tension built was amazing and I just love their journey.

Thank you @libro.fm for a copy if this audiobook. A coming of age story about Frankie who meets Zeke in the summer and plasters a poster around town that goes viral. The story goes back to how Frankie and Zeke comes up with the idea and their relationship and the adult Frankie reacting to what happened 20 years ago. 

I didn't get the whole poster and how it got so viral so this story didn't really work for me. The narrator did a good job bringing the characters to life and I enjoyed the flashback to the 90s. 

This was a fun holiday romance if you are into:
- small town
- friends to lovers 
- fake dating

The setting of a Christmas tree farm was charming and Luka was the perfect book boyfriend. I thought Stella should have been open with her business partners about the state of the business and work together. The side characters were all so charming.

Gordo and Mark's story was so heartbreaking. The story picks up where Wolfsong ends with the Bennett wolf pack looking for their father's killer. The story is told between past and present of Gordo's life as a witch. I felt the pain and want between Mark and Gordo and how upsetting it was they weren't with each other. The narration did a great job with the wanting.

Thank you @prhaudio for a copy of this audiobook. This is a story of fate and what ifs. The book is told in present before Audrey and Josh's wedding and Audrey's one day with Frank. I enjoyed the flash back of Josh and Audrey and their story that led to their wedding. I was frustrated with Audrey and her not talking to Josh. I was glad he didn't give into her so easily.

The narrator did a great job with showing Audrey questioning her decision.

I was looking forward to read Rose and Connor's story and this book follows post Lily's scandal released and Rose trying to fix her failing fashion line. I like the idea of a reality show revealing the lives of the Calloway sister. The idea of having the producer be part of the show was kind of odd. I am not sure how they would agree to the arrangement they put themselves in. 

Who knew Connor was going to be a freak in the sheets. I thought the narration sounded to old to be in their mid 20s. Overall, it's an addictive read that had some flaws in the plot.

This was a great memoir about Arshay and his experience growing up in the west side of Chicago and how rowing changed his life. 

This story broke my heart while reading and all the Arshay faced as a kid. The story still speaks about race, class , gangs and how hard it is to get out of the vicious cycle. I am glad Ken had the heart and the vision to start a rowing club in a Black school and gave these boys a chance to live beyond what they know.

Thank you HQN @netgalley for a copy of this emotional read. Don't let this cover fool you, have tissues ready. I read devoured this one in 2 days. 

The love story between Annika and Daniel is an emotional ride. They both have experienced grief and have been alone. I enjoyed seeing how Annika and Daniel helped each other heal. 

Annika faced so much with her family pressuring her to find a good Indian man and go to medical school. While Daniel, continues to grief the loss of his daughter. The story covers some intense topic like racism and school shootings that broke my heart. 

Despite all the heavy topics, there are some fun moments with weddings and dancing.
