Adult Assembly Required by Abbi Waxman is a bookish book that I enjoyed. Although not part of a series, this book follows the author’s previous book, The Bookish Life of Nina Hill and we get to see the continuation of some of the characters from that book. Laura Costello has moved to Los Angeles from […]
The Dachshund Wears Prada by Stefanie London is the first book in her Paws in the City series. This adorable romance has a high maintenance and delightful dachshund named Carmen that steals the show. Isla Thompson just suffered a career-ending blow when a video goes viral of her interview with a Disney princess. Isla has […]
Starry-Eyed Love by Helena Hunting is the second book in her Spark House series, but can be read as a stand-alone book. This fun contemporary romance is just a bit steamy, and a lot of romantic fantasy all in one book. London Spark is out at the local pub with her two sisters, as they […]
Every Summer After by Carley Fortune is an emotional and beautifully written coming-of-age story that I simply loved. The story is a dual timeline that covers six years in the past and one weekend in the present. The summer after Persephone Fraser (Percy) turns 13, her parents buy a cottage on a lake in a […]
By the Book by Jasmine Guillory is the second book in the popular Meant To Be series that has different authors doing fairy tale re-tellings. By the Book is loosely based on the Disney version of Beauty and the Beast. I loved finding all the little nods to the animated movie throughout this book. Isabelle […]
The Wedding Season by Katy Birchall is a delightful story about forgiveness, personal growth, friendships, and love. I’ll be honest, I enjoyed this much more than I expected. From the blurb, I expected a light and a bit of a silly story, but instead, it was thoughtful, emotional, and charming. Freya Scott is about to […]
Wedding Season by Michelle Major is the third book in her popular Carolina Girls series. This heartwarming tale with an enemies-to-lovers trope has a bit of mystery too. Mariella Jacob never thought she’d move back to Magnolia, North Carolina, but after her bridal dress design business went under, she returns to the small town to […]
The Homewreckers by Mary Kay Andrews is a delightful cozy mystery, romance, and women’s fiction combination that I enjoyed thoroughly. Hattie Kavanaugh has worked for Kavanaugh and Sons Restorations since she was 18 years old. At 20, she married the boss’s son, Hank, and sadly at 25 years old, she became a widow when her […]
It Started With a Kiss by Lisa Hobman is a lovely romance with opposites attract, all set in Edinburgh, Scotland. I said this is opposites attract, but as the book moves on, I realized they are not opposites at all, as they are very similar deep down. Star, an American living in Edinburgh, is […]
Drop Dead Gorgeous by Rachel Gibson is a story about a woman who has to switch bodies with another woman who took her place in heaven. It’s light and easy to read, with a pleasant and satisfying ending. Brittany Lynn Snider crashes her mother’s minivan on her way to a tinder date and ends up […]
