Thank you to the publisher for a copy of this summer romance. Foster always does a great job with characters and banter and this one was no exception. Nicole buys a summer house in small beach town and is instantly charmed by townspeople. Everyone is friendly and a bit noisy and welcomes her in. She meets Declan and they have major attraction to each other and resists the attraction and develops a friendship. I enjoyed seeing their friendship develop and the adventures they went together.

Thank you @dreamscape_media @netgalley @sourcebookscasa for this wonderful romance. I recommend this anyone that loves:
- Grumpy/Sunshine
- Fake Dating 
- Forced Proximity 
- Great banter 

Sam is a perfect mc who is a little chaotic and wants to protects his staff from being laid off. Jonathan is the grumpy owner who is worried about the bottom line. I love their interactions and seeing their relationship develop. The misfit of employees and Jonathan's family added so much fun to the story too. The narrator really brought out the fun English wit in the story. 

Thank you @thedialpress @prhaudio for this book. This book was so much fun and heartwarming. Sasha is feeling burnt out and heads to a seaside resort to take care of herself. The hotel is not she expected and she meets another guest, Finn, who is just as stress as she is and forms a friendship. They are so fun together and the hotel staff really brings the hotel to life. The audio was great, you could feel Sasha's emotions as she tries different things to de-stress her life.

Thank to you to the publisher for a copy of this great friends to lovers romance. I adore the history between Lorelei and Craig and seeing the flashback and their relationship. The banter and tension between them is so good. I love the added lyrics and how much they played in the story. This story always covers some heavier subjects which added more depth to the story.

Thank you @berkleryromance @prhaudio for a copy of this. This is a retelling of Shakespeare's Taming of the Shred which I have not read. Katerina and Christopher have know each other all their lives and has had adversary relationship since the begging. I enjoyed the banter between the two and how they both assumed things about each other and was able to prove each other wrong. There are great neurodivergent representation and dealing with chronic illness which played a large part in plot. I enjoyed the dual POV and the narrators. 

Thank you @smpromance @netgalley for a copy of this office romance. This was a little enemies to lovers, forced proximity and lots of great banter between Casey and Alex. Casey doesn't like Alex as she was passed for a promotion by someone that was an unknown. I didn't like Casey at first because she was mean to Alex for getting her desired job which felt immature. As they started working together and they show more of their personality, the book started picking up.

Thank you @readforeverpub @hachetteaudio @netgalley for this great celebrity romance. This story is about 2 actors that stars in a gay movie where Logan is an actor with a troubled history and Mattie is the up and coming Hollywood golden boy. It was great to see the BTS of movie making as well as seeing their relationship develop. I love Mattie and how sure he was of himself despite his relationship with his family. I highly recommend this in audio, the is a whole cast of characters and sound effects too. 

Thank you @sourcebooks @libro.fm for a copy of this book. This was book felt like an olde to Twilight with lots of focus on religion, sexism and coming of age. The story is very atmospheric and dark told by Ruth's POV. She lives in a small town which her dad is a pastor and she befriends Everett who is a town outcast. I enjoyed learning about their past and both of their struggles. This didn't feel like a thriller but it was entertaining and I enjoyed how Winstead brings up so many topics that are relevant.

This was a IG made me do it book. It was all over and I had to read it to see what the hype is all about. I would say this felt more like a YA read and I was expecting more romancetasy which to me was too light on the romance. The story is not dark and kind of cute with a hint of mystery. I felt the ending was way to abrupt and of course you had to read the next book.

Thank you @stmartinspress @macmillan.audio for a copy of The Intern. This is my first book from Campbell and I loved how the story unfolded. Madison lands an internship with her mentor, Judge Kathryn and keeps a secret to keep her internship. As she starts working for the Judge she learns some things about the Judge. The story kept me entertained and so many twists in the story.
