Promising and cute, but way the timeline was written was too confusing to be pulled into the story.

This was such a great book about love in every way possible, grief, saying yes even if you’re scared, with everything I love from Lauren’s writing. 

I was lucky enough to be able to listen to the audio while reading along, which sucked me into the story so much. I loved Max and Everly, they’re amazing people! And together they were just so, so good!

Sometimes you just need a dark romance, and this definitely was that. I don’t really love the degradation kink, and that did take me out of the story a little at times, but Elio and Orion are still a great couple! The book definitely has heart, and that kept me engaged the whole time!

What a great start to a new series! There are some familiar faces from other books, and it was so good to finally get Jesse’s story. Both him and Sebastian are complex characters, and we discover who they really are throughout the book together with them discovering each other (or rediscovering, I guess). Loved it!

A great read to move from summer to autumn reading, as this one has a bit of both! I loved Hazel and Noah were great, their adventures so much fun. And all the town people are such good characters, can’t wait to read more in this series!

Whenever I’m in the mood for a romantic suspense, I always go to Brittney Sahin books. She always delivers! Not Mine To Keep is another winner. Great balance between swoon and suspense, between light and dark. I love the Costa family, and Callie is amazing! She’s such a good character, and her struggles felt so real. Alessandro is best described by his sister, a tough guy but a teddy bear underneath. And if that’s not the best combination, I don’t know what more you need! Loved it!

A cute story, with great characters, but the writing style kept me from being pulled in fully. I do still wanna read the next book!

This book was perfect! I love this series so much, each book just makes me so happy. From the awkward moments with Derek’s stalking to the adorable times together with Marley, it was all so good!

I loved this book so much! Everything about the story was so good. I love this whole series, they just make me happy. Easton and Knox are so good together, and I’ve just wanted to slap the back of their heads so they’d fix their problems (with love, of course) and just be together and in love and happy!

I loved this book so much! Mason and Ryan are amazing, and the couple works so well together. It was so much fun to follow them discover their relationship, and everything that comes with it. It was great to have moments with West again, and I loved the D&D campaign moments!
