If you're looking for a great fun and sweet love story in the LGBTQ+ romance this book is definitely for you.
I enjoyed the overall story and the characters are so great , so real and the book touches many stereotypes of our nowadays that many young people are experiences. It has insightful moments in the lgbtq world and how acceptance and discovering ones desires and focusing on what they really want for their future and life is a big part of their life.
The banter was great and many times i have laughed at the snarky replies or quick thinking but other times i just felt like the story it's dragging so that's why i can't love it enough for a five stars read.
Overall it's a great book that many people will enjoy for sure.

Nothing can hurt you is a story about how a murder can impact in the life of the families and friends involved in the case.
It's a great set up and a chilling story overall but for me personally was hard to keep up with everything as it's told in chapters between then and now and way too many pov of the involved characters.

I loved this book as much as i loved the first one in the series.
The fast paced and never ending twists and turns made for a perfect afternoon with some of my favourite characters.
I love when i found authors that manage to make my imagination run wild and prove that my theories aren't correct even if they lead us to a different ending.
Suspenseful , thrilling and it felt like watching the best crime serial on tv.

Who doesn't love a great second chance at love and a knight in shining armour that saves the day?
This love story was perfect for a great summer read, with meet cute moments, low angst and what ifs that turned out why not scenes.
If you're looking for a quick heartwarming beautiful love story this one is for you.

I loved it for so many reasons and it reminds me of my favourite historical romance of all times
It’s not your usual historical romance story and maybe because the hero is not a pompous high ranked society peer was even better for me.
The characters and interaction are perfectly designed and you can feel the chemistry and that flicker of hope and love coming their way soon enough.
If you’re in a mood for a great historical romance pick up this book and you won’t regret it.

The story holds many hidden gem within the pages and it was an enjoyable experience overall. I would say it’s more reinvented than a retelling of the classic.
I must admit that it made me think at the Virgin Queen and her appetite for virgins blood to stay young as the King Manford lived his life. I don’t particularly like Sophia because I still see her as a teenager and very unsure about her life and future. It’s an age when you have to feel and discover the world and life’s opportunities so the gay heroine at sixteen is a bit lost on me here. The patriarchy fight has been happening for many years and will still be a long time before we can live in a better place for everyone.
The writing was great and the story overall was interesting but I wouldn’t say it’s a favourite unfortunately.

Many thanks to the publisher for my review copy.

I love when I find new to me authors and especially if the book holds my attention at all times.
This is the fifth instalment in the crime series DI Ridpath and although I haven’t read any of the previous books, I feel that I could easily get into the story without a missing a beat. And that’s probably one of the author’s gift as the writing was so good that got me invested from the first page to the last in one sitting.
If you love a great crime thriller story, this one is definitely worth your time. It’s fast-paced, it has compelling characters and so many twists and turns that I could barely wrap my head around all the layers upon layers unveiled with each new chapter. And that cliffhanger ending really got me hooked for more in this series.

Very grateful to the publisher and NetGalley for my review copy.

And here I thought that Neil is the most dominant alpha hero that I’ve ever read! No baby,this Italian is way more fun to get lost in this beautiful story of redemption and a second chance at life after so many downfalls.
Age gap, steamy and stormy, this book goes in my favourite of the year and Shade goes on my Big List

I don’t know how she does it but I just couldn’t stop reading this book.
There are great writers in this world and there are truly talented ones that stick with you for a long time. That’s the case for me with Brittainy C Cherry.
I love her words and angsty feels like real-life stories and this book has ticked off all the boxes for me. From the world build that’s very unexpected to be honest, to the characters development that’s highly executed and the dialogue and banter, everything was perfectly written for me.
There are past mistakes, there are lots of secrets to be unveiled and there’s also friendship and what that friendship really means.
A well deserved happily ever after with many ups and downs moments,chemistry and life learning lessons , just like in real life.
Read it and hopefully, you’ll enjoy it as much as I did.

Love is a Rogue by Lenora Bell reminds me why I love historical romance so greatly. Even if I’m not reading the genre as much as before, every now and then I try to get back into the fascinating world of the English countryside and fall into a beautiful love story like this one.
I love that our hero, Ford is not your usual high society lineage duke or any other nobility person. He’s so down to earth, caring,loving and most of all respects a woman’s life,heart and mind. He acknowledges her as his equal and that’s the most important thing for me, even in times where women weren’t allowed to have their own voice.
Beatrice is a wonderful character and her personality is a perfect mix between stubborn and strong but also loving and sensitive or better said feminine.
Their interaction is so good and many times I had laughed out loud as well as felt the heartache. The balance is very well done and you just can't seem to stop needing more from them.
Wonderful characters, witty banter, funny moments and romantic happily ever after story.
