#readingromance while waiting for the Dodger game to start. 💙⚾️

Diverting a little from #bookbingo #marchspin #marchreads I realised the 3 books 📖 I had on the go (now 2) are all themed around war 😢I need a break ! I need escapism #readingromance #readinginthebath

My upcoming romcom is now on NetGalley and I have free ARC downloads for anyone interested who isn't on NetG.

A LOL enemies to lovers about a recently divorced woman who keeps running into her childhood nemesis, the town deputy.

Mairin is the illegitimate daughter of the king & on the run. She ends up at the McCabe family's keep & thrust into marriage with eldest brother Ewan. Compared to her former potential mate, this alpha male is a catch, what with all his talk of possession, obedience & all that other misogyny. He's not a bad guy, but he has some growing to do. Mairin gets put into a lot of peril & this is one of the least romantic "maiden voyages" I can recall.

Hannah wakes up in the hospital with amnesia and a fiancee - her life long crush, Max. The last thing she remembers is a night out with friends a year ago. Hannah is in her early 20s, remembers being heavy but is now thin, not sure if she's still a virgin, and no one thinks it's weird to continue pushing forward with planning that upcoming wedding despite not remembering this relationship. How does hottie rocker Nate fit into all of this?

I don't remember ever reading this (just warching the movies) so it was time to rectify that. I didn't have the original story so I went with the 2017 film's novelization. It was good, and Gaston is still his magnificently douchey, but it loses a bit of magic without the music. You still feel for the castle staff, worry about Papa, and hate the book-loathing townsfolk, but the lyrics of the songs do so much to drive home the feelings.

Bk18 of February is done. While not my favourite in the series, this companion novella was still worth a read, even if it‘s just for an insight into Cassian, Mors & Nestas minds. I couldn‘t wait so I‘ve bought the audiobook of Silver Flame which will be my next read🙌 #PennyPerPage #272c #SeriesRead2021 #StackingTheSeries #ReadItAgainSam #NerdReading2021 #52BookClub #FinishingTheSeries #Pageathon #ReadingRomance

Bk17 of February is done! The last in the original trilogy, it ends the arc of the war with Hybern while leaving it open ended enough to continue other storylines. Just A Court Of Frost & Starlight novella to go before the new book comes👍 #PennyPerPage #720c #SeriesRead2021 #StackingTheSeries #ChunksterChallenge #ReadItAgainSam #FinishingTheSeries #Pageathon #ReadingRomance

Bk16 of February is done! I think this is my favourite book of the whole series, there‘s so much happening it could‘ve become confused but it manages to not just stay easy to follow, but shines with brilliance of a damn good story well told. 10⭐️ #PennyPerPage #640c #SeriesRead2021 #StackingTheSeries #ChunksterChallenge #ReadItAgainSam #NerdReading2021 #FinishingTheSeries2021 #BookspinBingo #BookishBingo #Pageathon #ReadingRomance

Bk7 & my last for #FabulousFebruary is done. It was an intriguing book, it‘s a very similar style to Laura Purcell & Sarah Perry. They all have a very lyrical way of writing & all are either Edwardian or Victorian or earlier. And they have a very similar sense of despair. #ReadingWomensChallenge #QueerLoveStory #LitsyAtoZ2021 #LetterC #PennyPerPage #437c #Pop21 #Forgetting #PickYourPoison #NeedReading2021 #BookspinBingo #BooklistQueenChallenge
