What a little cocoon of sweetness and love this book was for me! I totally fell for this cute relationship and this was exactly the kind of story I was expecting : Ali Hazelwood always delivers those amazing love duo that puts a balm on the heart and makes you believe in magic. I loved it!

What a pleasure to read this sequel! I loved One Dark Window and couldn't wait to read what was coming next and finished loving Two Twisted Crowns even more! The story was captivating : I couldn't stop reading it as I really wanted to know the end! The characters are so interesting and I loved the fact that this story focused a little more on characters who were not so important in the first book... this is definitely a duology I would recommend in the future when I'm asked for recommendations!

Awwww! How much I love this story! Catalina and Aaron are so... specials! My heart was melting so many times reading this book that I stopped counting... but they're definitely a cute duo that fits so well together. I needed a sweet romantic book and this one definitely did the job!

I received this ebook from the author in exchange for an honest review.

I asked to be on Jessica S. Taylor "street team" for the promotion of her new book because I LOVE her writing... and once again I'm fully convinced that I'm gonna love everything she's writing! The characters are always so well described and... so perfectly imperfect at the same time. I really enjoyed the journey she put us through... the story is well-constructed and so original even if it's a retelling! I've definitely spent some great time in Sleepy Hollow and I recommend you to go down this path as well!

I received a copy of this book from the publisher (via Netgalley) in exchange for an honest review.

What a book! I jumped into it almost immediately and wasn't expecting to enjoy this vampire story so much! The characters are so touching with their weaknesses and so strong feelings. I loved the writing and how it's a quite fast-paced adventure. I'll definitely read book 2 soon!

That's an exciting book! I really enjoyed the main story and the spice is so hot!!! Once it started, I needed to keep on reading. The characters are loveable in their own way as they hide so many scars... and the writing is so smooth that at some point I forgot that I was reading (and English is not my mother tongue so it's quite a compliment!). I'll gladly read what's coming next when book 2 will be published!

Thank you to the author who gave me the ebook in exchange for an honest review.

I loved Jenelyn's Journey and this sequel is just in the same mood : a lot of cultural (accurate) informations, a touch of mystery and so much love. Jenelyn's going through her life as everyone of us in her position would probably go: with doubts sometimes but so much courage and determination! I really liked how the French catholic culture has been described as it's really close to the reality! The writing is easy to read and I can't wait to discover the next step of Jenelyn's Journey...

So much tension in this story! I loved how their relationships grew and changed along the pages and I will definitely read book 2 as soon as it's published as I want to know what happens to each and every one of the characters... because I like them all... even if some are totally loathsome.
The writing is fluid and the story is fast-paced (no time to get bored into long description, which I really appreciated). I would definitely recommend it!

Quelle claque cette lecture! Tellement de ces vérités sont miennes depuis de nombreuses années mais jamais je ne les avais mises en mots... les lire de cette écriture simple et efficace m'a remise bien droite dans mes baskets tout en me renforçant dans ma certitude que mon but dans cette vie est également d'être une exploratrice... mais au lieu de relier la nature à l'homme, je m'applique jour après jour à relier l'homme à ses semblables et quelque part mon chemin, bien que moins dangereux, a aussi souvent rencontré des situations ayant tout remis en question mais m'ayant permis d'avancer, tout comme Sarah, vers cet objectif que je sens si profondément ancré en moi qu'il ne peut être que l'appel de la vie. Merci pour ce rappel sur le fait que l'instinct, si on lui laisse une place de choix dans notre quotidien, est à lui seul la meilleure des réponses...
