so-soJune #RomanceRoundup
Poetry On Ice - Enemies to lovers isn‘t a trope I generally enjoy. This one handled it reasonably well, but I found the 🌶 a bit icky
Pucked - Read with #LittensLoveRomance (thanks @StayCurious ) teammate‘s sister trope, started well but never developed the relationship beyond the physical, which just got boring
Untouchable Player - Sweet jock/nerd & teammate‘s brother trope
Blue Line - OK but forgettable fake dating trope
pickI really enjoyed reading this for #LittensLoveRomance and look forward to reading more of the series. It‘s fun and very spicy and not meant to be taken too seriously. Perfect escapism. 4⭐️ Thanks for hosting @StayCurious ! 🤗

pick#LittensLoveRomance Ch.27-epilogue and review: a satisfying ending with a move in, a vacation, a slight dress up mishap 😅 and a proposal. I enjoyed reading Alex and Violet‘s journey but I think some of the character growth was impeded by all the sexy times. Don‘t get me wrong - this book is hot and pretty fun, but a bit too spicy at times. ⬇️
#LittensLoveRomance Ch.25-26: well, that was very romantic-movie-esque - a public declaration of love after a Stanley cup win - it‘s all happy. I‘m glad they talked finally and she‘s willing to give them a chance. And not only because she misses the MC. She‘ll have to learn to be vulnerable just like he will in order for this to work. We‘ll finish tomorrow!
so-soThis was okay...I enjoyed Alex but not Violet as much. Violet needed to shut up a few times, IMO. Some of the sexy stuff was good, but it got old pretty quick.

pan#unpopularopinion time. Repetitive AF. I knew going in that this was spicy, which is fine, but there was sexy times in every chapter except for 2, maybe 3. And it just seemed like the MCs did literally nothing but bang it out, so I don‘t buy that they formed an emotional connection. When they did talk, it was mostly about each other‘s private parts. And if I never hear the words cock, beaver, or monster ever again, that would be fine with me!
#LittensLoveRomance Ch.23-24: Oof- these chapters made me sad. I hate break ups especially when both members are heartsick and want to get back together. I appreciated that Alex fired his agent and was willing to go on the air with his feelings for Vi. I guess she didn‘t see the interview. Or it hasn‘t aired yet. Will it change her mind?
so-soI finished this #littensloveromance last night. It‘s probably the spiciest spice level I‘ve read becasue it‘s unrelenting. The Canadian settings are fun- Toronto, Guelph and cottage country, a fair bit was cringe and I feel like Violet became a different person as the book went on or the author wanted to cover too much on top of the non stop shagging
pickIf you are in the mood for something fun and steamy, this is the book for you! I found myself totally cheering for Alex and Violet and loved getting lost in the pages of this book! #littensloveromance
