Nothing Without You by K.B. Barrett was filled with heartfelt romance, building family ties, and suspense. It was filled with the intense emotional character development that I love from K.B. Barrett. Winter is my favorite heroine in the I Found You series. I love how she grows into a strong independent woman, but still loves to rely on her man. I loved how Mark helped support Winter on her journey to heal from her past.

Anything For You by K.B. Barrett was a thrilling sequel to the first book in the I Found You series. I really enjoyed how Christine was able to calm Rick like nobody else. The depth of K.B. Barrett’s characters is intense and allows you to feel all the feels with along side them. Rick and Christine’s story had me guessing how their external conflict would be resolved. Both of these characters went on a whirl wind emotional journey to finally get to their Happily Ever After.

How It Was by T.S. Joyce was so good! I was getting some serious Damons Mountains vibes during this book. I really enjoyed trying to guess, along with Amos, Nuke and Trina’s animals. The way Nuke and Trina care for each other was so adorable. I absolutely loved this Oath of Bane story!

How It Will Be by T.S. Joyce was a tale of best friends reconnecting after a not being in each other’s lives for many years. Bron and Ren were so cute together and the tension between these two was steamy! I loved how both characters helped lift up the other to become the best version of themselves. I’m excited to see how this new misfit crew comes along!

Lover Undercover by Samanthe Beck pulled me in an had me curious how Kylie and Trevor were going to reconcile their attraction and legal situation. I enjoyed this twist with the twins and that it was not a love triangle with twins. The suspense and mystery surrounding who was “protecting” Stacy had me guessing till the end. The tension and intimate scenes between Trevor and Kylie were hot! Overall, this was a fun read.

A Midsummer Night’s Clean really dug into what’s up with O.H.I.O and Nico and Paige’s relationship. Nico and Paige are so hot! You just want them bone so bad, but they always get interrupted leaving you wanting more of them. The introduction of Mavis was tension filled. I really enjoyed Mavis’s character and how she and Paige interacted with each other. I did feel like this story was a bit less than the others, maybe because it takes place in the theater for majority of the book and that just wasn’t my jam.

Reactivated: Cassian by Charssia Gracyk is an emotional and heart warming fifth book in the Project Phoenix series. My heart broke for Cassian as he regained his memories. I was so glad that Hailey found him and was able to help ground him and bring light to his world. The action and romance was amazing! I enjoyed getting to see a bit more of Vain in action. I’m hoping that Cassian is able to get, much needed, revenge along with the rest of his team on the villainous Project Phoenix leaders, in the next books.
