This was such a great audiobook with 4 different narrators and I loved it. The story centers on Sally whose father recently passed and she must learn to live on her own. Sally has been sheltered all her life and interactions with people has been limited which makes her appear strange. I loved seeing Sally's growth journey and as the story develops, we get so much of the backstory. Despite this book having some dark themes, it is always very heartwarming and you can't hit root for Sally to succeed.

Love on the Byline was a great start to a new series. This is a second chance romance between Blake and Oliver who reconnected by chance with Blake's celebrity write up only Brandon. They all knew each other in college and the story alternates between their college days and present day. I appreciate that both Blake and Olive's integrity was shown with their work and shows their personality. There are other subplots to the story that added additional interest to the story.

Just could not get into it 

Thank you @delacortepress @prhaudio for a copy this book. If you love gelato, this book is for you. Iris goes to NYC as she deals with the recent passing of her mom. She discovers a little gelato shop and meets Gio and they form a friendship. I am not a fan of miscommunication which is a big plot of this book. I did enjoy seeing Iris' growth and seeing her and Gio's relationship develop. Emma Appleton did a great job with the voices and Italian accents.

Thank you @prhaudio @berkleyromance for a copy of this workplace romance. This one was a miss for me. The narrators did a good job portraying Izzy and Lucas and I felt the hate between the two. I had a hard time with their maturity and I lost interest in their story. 

Thank you @readforeverpub for a copy of this fun forced proximity story. Becca is a sorority mom and is snowed in during holiday break and is forced to stay with Harrison, the hot football coach. They had 1 date awhile back and it never went anywhere. This story went from 0-60 real quick with the snow storm. There was some fun parts with their interaction but their love story felt rushed. 

Thank you @ prhaudio for a copy of Love, Holly. Stone does it again in writing a book that tugs all the emotions. This story deals with some heavy topics such as grief and mending strained relationships. Holly is likeable character and I enjoyed seeing breakdown the surliness of Emma and their friendship. I loved Jack and reading his healing process too. Stone always writes stories that reminds us that holidays may be difficult for some.

Thank you @dreamscape_media @netgalley for a copy of this book. I love how real Maggie's journey felt and how relatable it is. I love all the music references and that Maggie never wavered from her dream to make music. I am not a fan of love triangle and this was done so well and not really a triangle but more Maggie's relationship with Garrett and Asher. Katherine Littrell did a great job with all the voices and bringing the story to life.

Thank you @smpromance @macmillan.audio for the perfect holiday read! Kerry goes to NYC to join her brother to sell Christmas trees. She meets the people of the neighborhood and forms a connection with Patrick and his son, Austin. This story is so sweet and Austin was added so much cuteness. The voices that Kathleen McInerney did for all the characters really brought the story to life. 

Thank you to the publisher and @netgalley for a copy of this book. Rachel Reid is the queen of hockey romance! This story centers on Landon who is called into the big league as the goal keeper. He meets Casey who invites him to be his roommate and I love the friendship that develops. The banter between the two was amazing and I love how great Casey was with Landon and their feelings develop. The supporting characters were all great as well.
