Bella Matthews’ Enticing is a swoon-worthy romance that tugs at your heartstrings while delivering all the trope-filled fun you’d expect from a fake-marriage storyline. What sets this book apart is its emotional depth, relatable characters, and the undeniable chemistry between the leads. 

The story follows a young romance author and single mum, thrust into a mutually beneficial arrangement with Leo Sinclair, a charming hockey player who is every inch the swoon-worthy hero.

Adelaide is instantly likeable: a determined mother trying to secure a better future for her daughters. Her vulnerabilities and resilience resonate, making her journey relatable. Leo, on the other hand, is more than just a pretty face. His genuine care for Adelaide and her daughters is heart-melting, and his transformation from a fake husband to someone fully invested in the family is beautifully crafted. 

The interactions between Leo and the children are a highlight, showcasing his warmth and making the reader root for the unconventional family. The romantic tension is electric, with witty banter and heartfelt moments that make you believe in their connection. Bella Matthews does an excellent job of balancing light-hearted humour with more serious emotional beats, creating a well-rounded romance that feels genuine. 

The pacing is steady, although the story leans on some predictable plot points inherent to the trope. That said, Bella Matthews keeps it engaging with her sharp writing and authentic character voices. The conclusion is satisfying, with a mix of heartfelt confessions and resolutions that leave you cheering for this couple’s happily ever after.

Sara Ney delivers a witty, steamy, and utterly entertaining romance in Not Your Biggest Fan, blending opposites-attract charm with sharp banter and sizzling chemistry. 

Harlow James is a small-town entrepreneur on a mission to make waves in the dating world with her app, Kissmet. She’s in New York to secure advertisers when a chance encounter at a food truck brings her face-to-face with a muscular, cocky stranger—who just happens to be Landon “Andy” Burke, the NFL’s hottest free agent. When Harlow tries to warn him about his questionable food choice, he brushes her off, leading to a playful bet that sparks an unexpected connection. 

What starts as a flirty, competitive moment turns into an electrifying weekend fling when fate lands them in the same hotel. Their chemistry is undeniable, but Harlow isn’t looking for love—especially with someone like Andy, who belongs to a world far removed from her small-town roots. She returns home to Green Bay, content to focus on her business and life with her goofy dad and adorable corgi. 

But Andy isn’t ready to walk away. And when Kissmet has a say in their future, he shows up at her door, proving that sometimes, love is worth taking a chance on. 

Sara Ney’s signature hilarious dialogue, playful tension, and swoon-worthy moments make this book irresistibly fun. Harlow is a refreshing, independent heroine, and Andy is the perfect mix of cocky and endearing, making their dynamic feel real, heartfelt, and full of sparks. The low-angst, high-fun storyline keeps the pages flying, while their undeniable chemistry ensures plenty of heat. 

If you love fast-paced, banter-filled romances with a lovable, headstrong heroine and a determined, swoony athlete, Not Your Biggest Fan is a must-read. It’s fun, flirty, and the perfect escape for readers who enjoy sports romance, witty dialogue, and unexpected love stories.
