I absolutely loved this book! Nolan and Gabi are perfect, not your stereotype hero and heroine you expect in a romance novel. They know who they are, and they work so well together because they don’t need to be fixed or made whole by finding a partner. I loved that Gabi is the athlete, this was the first book I read where it wasn’t the guy who was the athlete! The book is very inclusive, without showing off about it, if that makes sense. I can’t really explain it any better. This was my first book by Lorelei James, but it definitely won’t be my last!

This book is so intense. I’m glad that the Colton chapters from Raced are added at the appropriate places for the plot in the series bundle, having his POV as well made me like the story so much more! It ends on a cliffhanger, and I’m going to dive into the second book soon, but I need a light read in between to balance everything.

This was the perfect book for a lazy Saturday! Devlin and Scarlett couldn’t be from more different backgrounds, but they just work so well together! I love them, and their road to happiness. The mystery that started in the book has me intrigued, and I can’t wait to dive into the next book!

**I received this book as an ARC in return for my honest review**

I was so excited when I saw I got the arc for the latest Pippa Grant book! You know that I love her writing, and I’m so happy that this one fits right in with the rest. I laughed so much throughout the story, but it was also hitting me right in the feels. If only everybody was like Tyler, I love him so much! Muffy is amazing as well, even if she doesn’t always believe it herself. The world is mean sometimes, making people feel they’re not good enough when they don’t fit the beauty standards. Muffy is a clumsy, mid-sized woman who doesn’t have her life together yet, making her insecure about so much. Tyler is a hockey player, sexy and hot, but the best part about Tyler is his open heart. He’s a great friend, even if his reasons to help Muffy out also have a selfish side. I’m proud of Muffy for opening her heart to him anyway, that’s so scary to do! Tyler is the best cheerleader anyone can have, and he makes the world a better place by being himself and making others think about their words and behaviour and what impact they have on the rest around them.

The book can definitely be read as a standalone, but I would recommend to at least read Charming As Puck first. You meet Muffy and Tyler in that one and will make you even more excited about reading their story!

Lingerie Wars: Romantic Comedy

DID NOT FINISH: 50%

Just not the book for me. I gave it a chance but it just was going way too slow for my liking, and I got annoyed with everybody involved in everything.

I really liked the book, it’s a fun enemies to lovers story. There’s so much going on with the pranks and everything, but it never feels like too much. There’s a great balance between the love and hate. I do think there could’ve been a bit more groveling before the HEA, but it was still a great read.

This was such a great continuation of Him, I loved it so much! Wes and Jamie are so good, and their struggles hurt my soul. The story showed how bad the world still is, and especially how the sports world can react to anyone who doesn’t fit their ideas of standard. The book also gave me hope, and a glimpse how the world can be when people are accepting and open. Love is love, and I’m so happy that Wes and Jamie found theirs!

This is such a beautiful story, I read the book in one sitting! Love is love, and it makes me angry that not everybody agrees with that. My heart felt heavy for them to have to deal with that, and Wes having to worry about his hockey career because of who he loves. The book had a good balance between dealing with the real world and handling their developing romance. Can’t wait to dive into the second book!

This was such an amazing book! I normally don’t like the surprise baby-trope, but this story proved to be the exception to the rule. I loved it so much, it has so much heart and love and humor. West and Daisy are already good on their own, but they help to make each other better. This book is a pretty slow burn, but with everything that is happening, it totally works for the story. But it is absolutely worth the wait! Ball pits have definitely changed for me, haha! I loved that Daisy knows she doesn’t need West in her life, but that she wants him in her life. That’s how every relationship should be! And it’s so great to have a series where the billionaire is the woman, all the girl power!
