This was a perfect mix of cute, sweet, funny, spicy and drama

I really loved revisiting this universe with new main characters, I loved both of them and thought they were so good together

I really enjoyed the plot, especially the 3rd act - it had me gripped and I had to keep listening to find out what happened next

I really enjoyed both of the narrators and thought the narration was really good

- coworkers - spicy movie stars
- ex boyband member turned pizza shop owner x childhood actress brought up on purity culture
- accidental pregnancy
- dual pov, 1st person

I really enjoyed and cute and easy the relationship in this was, there was no drama and it just seemed to work

The lack of drama did make me slightly uneasy at one point, I was like 'this is all going far too well' and wasn't sure if there would be a tonne of drama about to happen in the relationship, which I'm glad there wasn't

The plot twist towards the end about the book that Will was working on wasnt something I saw coming but was really enjoyable and helped answer some questions I had/clear up some points of confusion 

- queer (MM) romance
- workplace romance - work in publishing
- found family
- easy drama free relationship
- check content warnings/read authors note before starting as it does deal with some difficult topics 

I enjoyed the start but the middle - third act ish just didn't really keep my attention and I got bored

This book was most enjoyable when the MMCs child was involved, she was super cute and brought lots of entertainment to the plot. I really enjoyed the date/day out they all had together

I liked the start of their relationship and how they got on straight away and almost clicked

The MMC started annoying me when he was just kinda throwing money her way in terms of presents to try and get her to forgive him for lying/keeping info from her (and the fact that it happened twice got on my nerves)

- olympic figure skater x nhl team captain
- single dad

Thank you to NetGalley and Siesta Key for the arc - all opinions are my own

I really enjoyed this book! Was such a great background listen and had some entertaining stories and advice

I really liked that it was narrated by the author and loved her narration style - definitely going to check out the rest of her books

- non fic
- narrated by author
- agony aunt stories and advice split into different categories 

I loved this book

The MMC is the grumpiest of grumps when they first meet and I loved it

There were so many funny laugh out loud moments, like the camping, and just overall banter between the MCs. And also so many sweet moments, especially from the MMC, i was melting for him

The book is mainly set over a two week period but their relationship didn't feel rushed at all and i loved how vulnerable they were with each other

I enjoyed the journey we went on with Mel when she was kind of rediscovering herself

The grand gesture at the end!!!! It was so good!!! The mini plot twist (nothing bad) i cant it was so cute

- small town
- fake dating / fake fiancé 
- forced proximity
- opposites attract, he’s from a small town x shes an influencer from the city
- single pov, 1st person

Thank you to Penguin and NetGalley for the ARC - all opinions are my own

I love that the MMC was the Hopeless romantic who always dreamed of getting married - want to read more books like this

I liked that they made a pact that the FMC would help the MMC find a wife but that was very quickly forgotten about (after like one attempt) because even at the start when they 'disliked' each other they were both attracted to one another 

I liked that the FMCs best friend who he hadnt even met got them back together after the 3rd act break up

- small town
- 'dislike' to love
- forced to work together
- he's a hopeless romantic X she never wants to be married after a terrible past engagement 
- duel pov / 1st person

I forgot how spicy this was, however I loved revisiting the book that made me love why choose romances

I really liked that each main character had a different narrator and how they brought the transcripts of the podcasts to life

- why choose
- fake dating
- semi famous
- multi pov

This was a great read.

I loved the semi mystery plot line and when the truth came out at the end it was so good

I loved the FMC and her slightly chaotic nature and how she brought fun to everything

I enjoyed the fact that despite the 3rd act having a lot of drama it all got sorted quickly and no one really held grudges making it a perfect feel good book as everything worked out good in the end

- small town
- FMC works at a bookshop in a town made famous by an author
- bipoc characters

Thank you to NetGalley and One More Chapter for the arc - all opinions are my own 

I liked the narration and the plot but I just didn't really feel the spark/connection between the main characters

- annoyance to love
- mistaken identity
- bipoc characters

This book was so cute! I loved their relationship

The fact that he called her bookworm the whole time, it was such a cute nickname

I really loved the growth that we went on with Hannah and how she became more confident and made changes in her life even if they were difficult

Reason why its not a 5⭐️ is that I wanted to see more after the 3rd act break up, i thought the 3rd act break up was done for a good reason but i just wanted a couple more chapters after of them bring happy and together and seeing more of their life

- small town
- FMC goes to MMC asking him to help her become a ‘hot girl’
- bookstore owner x surfer
