This is the sixth book in the series of standalone instalove romances set in Rosewood Ridge and is a fun second chance romance involving Jesse & Makenna reuniting after being apart for seven years. I enjoyed getting to know both of them in this story and am looking forward to reading the spin off series Rosewood Ridge Riders that is briefly hinted at in this story.

This was my first book by Clarissa Lake and while I did enjoy the overall story and the characters there were a few parts of the book were I didn't feel as drawn into the story as at other times. The epilogue was good and I liked how the story ended.

This was the second book by River Ford that I have read since I read Catch Me If I Fall first and then backtracked to this one. I really enjoyed getting to read Jackie and Austin's story after reading about them in the Darcy's story earlier. This series is really good and I enjoyed getting to know more about the Fletcher family in this book. The end of the story was really sweet. I look forward to reading more from this series including the upcoming book about Brandon Fletcher and Summer that is supposed to come out in June 2024 Memories of Summer.

This was my first book by Alexa Ashe and the second book from the Whispers of Fate series of standalone books by different authors that all involve the solar eclipse that I have read and I really enjoyed this book. This book is about a fox shifter with a cursed family and the witch he is fated to and I enjoyed getting to know both of their characters and seeing how they found the way to work through the obstacles that they faced. It was also nice getting to read a book involving a solar eclipse with one having happened earlier in the month. I look forward to checking out what else this author has written.

This was my first book by Kate Sinner and I really enjoyed getting to know the characters and world of this series. Jen & Valtair made a fun couple and I enjoyed Valtair's two friends as well and look forward to reading the next book in the series about Sutek. I hope we get to see more of Rist in the future as well as their friend Taruk who we heard about but didn't get to know much about in this book.

This was my first book by Ashley Evercott and I thought it was a great Retelling of The Frog Prince. This book is part of a series of standalone fairy tale retellings each written by different authors and I enjoyed discovering this new to me author. All the characters in this book are so well written and I was so happy that Prince Devon was able to reach a better place with his father and brother. I also really enjoyed getting to know Princess Annelise and seeing her interactions with Prince Devon while he was a frog. I look forward to reading more from both this series and this author in the future.

This was my first book by Maria Dashwood and I enjoyed the story as well as the way the characters were written. It was fun to see Lizzy and Darcy first meet at Pemberley and the instant strong bond between Lizzy and Georgiana is always fun to read. I look forward to reading more by this author in the future.
