I’m a sucker for a marriage in crisis romance, but I’m picky about them and this one was done sooo well. Sarah and Caleb were very relatable characters, both as a couple and individually and I was rooting for them really hard. If you want a romance that feels realistic but also so cute and cozy try this! 

I’m normally not a huge fan of a slower burn with the intensity picking up in the end but it worked for me here. I liked the idea of Gabby confessing a dark secret to a total stranger, the whole concept of it being easier to be candid with someone you don’t know is interesting and I can see how it could be true. The suspense here was quieter, a sense of uneasiness, especially not knowing what Ellis goals and motivations were so maybe that’s why a slow burn made sense for me. There was something almost intoxicating about this book, enough so that even though the big twist wasn’t a surprise to me, I wasn’t bothered that much. If you enjoy books about secrets with a cat and mouse vibe try this! 

This was such a compelling read, it’s a raw and vulnerable look at what’s it like to live with bipolar disorder and puts you directly inside the mind of Maddy. You could feel her struggles in such a poignant and gut wrenching manner, the author did a brilliant job at conveying exactly how she was feeling during both manic periods as well as more stable times. Maddy is an unforgettable character and the narrator completely captured who she was! 

This was an odd one for me, there were parts I really liked and others that just didn’t work for me at all. Initially I was intrigued, it was a unique premise with fantastic creepy and unsettling vibes and I wasn’t sure what would happen next. I couldn’t figure out if it was supposed to be horror or not, and I’m still not quite sure honestly. Where it lost me is there were so so many unanswered questions in the end leaving giant plot holes that were never explained. There were just too many things that either didn’t make sense or were entirely implausible for me to overlook so unfortunately this was a total miss for me. 

I’ve been wanting to try the authors books for the longest time and holy smokes am I ever glad I finally did, I’m obsessed with this one!! I was in it immediately, it starts off in such a heartbreaking yet completely gripping way and my connection never let up the whole time I was reading this. It’s soo emotional and raw but it’s also beautiful and the healing that Lydia and Colby go through is so genuine and pure. I loved Colby’s relationship with Lydia’s kids, it was the sweetest thing and I’m obsessed with the entire Morgan family. If you like single parent, firefighter, forbidden, angsty, found family and patient/therapist, I’m telling you this was so good!

Out of all the King men I knew JP would have the hardest time winning me over but he did in the end! He’s the most like his father and iykyk he’s the worst, but getting inside his head really made so much clear for me and he had me wrapped around his finger. Hazel was amazing, I can’t imagine losing my sister and trying to figure out how to be a parent to her newly orphaned son and she did such a fantastic job with Teddy. He was the cutest and quirkiest kid and I adored him. This one was pretty emotional between Hazel’s grief and JP dealing with everything surrounding his mother and father. Again iykyk, sorry I know that’s annoying but no spoilers from me 🤐 Another really solid addition to the series, I loved the romance, I love Outtatowner, I loved getting to check in with my beloved Sullivan crew and I cannot wait for the next release. 

I really liked this one, it was so heartfelt and endearing and I fully connected with the main character. Loss and grief play a huge role here so it’s not an easy read but the author captured all the feelings of those things so so well. Being such an emotional story the narrator did an excellent job at conveying all of Aurora’s emotions, thoughts and feelings. 

 The premise here initially caught my attention, Eva has a condition where she can’t feel pain. When she dies a journalist named Anna is drawn to her story and her husband. As interesting as that all is I wanted more action, nothing exciting ever happened and in the end I was underwhelmed. I do credit the narrator for me even finishing this she was excellent and engaging

 I love a unique spin on a family drama and this one delivered! It was a compelling look at one family’s dynamics with well developed characters and a great setting. Many of the reveals surprised me and while the suspense was on the lighter side it was still pretty tense. All 3 narrators were great and showcased a wide variety of emotions in their performances 

Ok this is how you write friends to lovers!! Elle and Rhodes have a long history and early on they made a pact to be only friends. I loved their strong foundation and how they could truly just be their authentic selves with each other, so so cute. Levi is Rhodes son and his bond with Elle was adorable 🥹 I adore this series and love this group of single dads so much, if you want a cute series with all the good vibes and a quirky small town try this!
