This was the second book from the Jinx Paranormal Dating Agency series that I have read and I enjoyed it as much as my last which was Dating A Music God and was about the Idol Mimi that was briefly in this book. I enjoyed both Skadi and Erik's characters and seeing how the two of them bonded over the couple days they were snowed in together. The epilogue at the end was cute and I look forward to reading more from this series in the future.

This was another great addition to the Treasured by the Alien series and I loved getting to know Lauren and Krestar. This book had a good storyline and I enjoyed getting to see how Lauren and Krestar grew closer as the story continued as well as having some fun side characters. The epilogue was fun as well and I like that we got to see how some characters from other books are doing as well. I look forward to reading Hope for the Alien Warrior and finding out what happened with Lauren's friend Felicity & Luxor.

This was my first Retelling of Thumbelina and was a very entertaining story with several great characters, excellent world building, and a few unexpected twists. I really enjoyed getting to know Briar & Quinn and watching their relationship develop. The last chapter was also really sweet and a great way of wrapping up the story. I look forward to reading more fairy tale retellings by Sydney Winward in the future.

This was a fun story with more inspiration from Red Riding Hood than Goldilocks as well as plenty of its own original story. I liked both Goldie and Fenris as well as how well the world around them was built up. The background characters were entertaining as well and the epilogue when Goldie finally gets to her Grandma’s house was amusing.

I really enjoyed this Retelling of The Goose Girl and while it isn't a fairy tale that I am overly familiar with I have read a few other retellings. I loved getting to see Helena and Wilhelm's story finally come together and really liked the two of them a couple. I look forward to reading more of this series and exploring more fairy tales in this world.

I really enjoyed reading this gender-swapped Retelling of Aladdin about Alyeesah and Prince Enver. The Genie was a fun character as well and I enjoyed seeing how everything worked out. The epilogue for their story was really nice and I am looking forward to reading the next book and what happened for Helena.
