This was Cinderella meets The Bachelor and it was so fun!! I also loved all the representation of a plus size FMC and well as lgbtq characters. All the characters were so loveable!

This was a really cute small town second chance romance with all the best Port Snow characters! Also the mystery of the manor mistress was a fun subplot that caught me by surprise! It was a fun sweet read. The dual pov and dual timeline was done very well!

It was a bit slower and repetitive in the beginning it seemed but I was enjoying it still and even more toward the middle/end. And that's really only by comparison to the first two books. Super cute and heartwarming and now I want all the cookies and banana bread and desserts and baseball. All the characters were loveable and this was just a sweet story in general. I loved Kai & Miller's character growth. A good reminder too of what really matters in the grande scheme of things.

I didn't think this series could get better after Mile High and I was wrong! This was so cute. I loved absolutely everything about this book. The return of your favorite characters but diving deeper into Ryan & Indy's story made me laugh, cry, and swoon! So many tropes.... sister's best friend/best friend's brother, forced proximity, slow burn, he's possessive, fake dating, sports romance....more I'm probably forgetting. I loved the ASL rep as well! I loved that Ryan & Indy had struggles they were dealing with separately but were able to grow individually as well as together. These two were so adorable together.

I've had this book on my tbr for so long and I hate it took me this long to read it! I'm not usually a fan of hockey romances but this one I could see myself rereading. I loved all the characters. All the characters had fantastic realistic banter with one another, it was so entertaining. I also loved the mental health rep! That was addressed very well. There was amazing character growth between both main characters with each other and individually. I loved everything about this book! I was grinning like a fool through the whole thing.

Another super cute swoony romcom by Meghan Quinn! This was the perfect introduction to the cute small town of Port Snow. I've never wanted to visit a fictional small town so badly! Such loveable characters.

I loved this!! It was cuter and more fun than I expected. It was fast paced and took off from page one and kept going. Zoe and Sawyer's interactions and banter with each other were so funny. I was thoroughly entertained throughout the whole thing.

I loved this modern Beauty and the Beast retelling!! Super cute and a great take on the classic tale!
slow-paced

3.5x audiobook speed was not fast enough for this book. Both of the prior books my reviews stated how it was constant back and forth fighting and toxicity. The gaslighting...omg 🙄. Nothing has changed in book 3. I  tolerated it for the first two books cause those books still seemed to have a plot but this book was 850 pages of unnecessary. I should have DNF'd this book... I'm DNF'ing the rest of the series at this point.
