Code of Conduct | April White, Smartypants Romance

I couldn‘t put this book down, it‘s action filled romantic suspense, romantic comedy, bad ass heroine, polite and British hero with diverse characters and plot.

The Wallflower Wager is part of Girl Meets Duke series and I think this one cements the series as memorable, adorable, funny, socially relevant and most of all female empowering. I loved the humorous cameos played by the other characters from the previous books. I applaud the way Penny was able to get her own power back from a past that was too heartbreaking.

The first in Alisha Rai‘s Modern Love series, a little bit different from her previous novels, the over all tone is lighter although it still has some social issues mixed within the main plot. I liked it a lot!

CoffeeK8 I‘m reading this right now, it‘s really lovely so far 5y

Maya Rodale's Some Like It Scandalous is one of those books that I had a hard time putting down. It plays on a lot of tropes, like the pretend/arranged marriage and enemies to lovers but it also manages to put its own unique spin on it, not to mention a gender swap on images put up in front of society! Daisy and Theo are absolutely adorable, their witty dialogue and endless bantering will definitely make you laugh and swoon!

Passion on Park Avenue | Lauren Layne
post image
Pickpick

This story is full of witty banter and steamy chemistry between the leads but its also not the usual lighthearted romantic comedy that Ms. Layne is known for. In fact, this one has a more serious tone, most reminiscent of her New Adult romances, which resulted in a bittersweet and poignant romance between two people who appear the opposite of each other but definitely is made for one another.

An offshoot of another series, The Rogue of Fifth Avenue features Frank Tripp and Mamie Greene, two characters divided by social class with a common interest that drives them together. I really love how Ms. Shupe manages to give historical facts and seamlessly weaves it into the story making The Rogue of Fifth Avenue a great love story for the Gilded Age.

Forever Wolf | Maria Vale

If you have ever wanted to read a paranormal shifter story with romantic elements that is female empowering, gritty and primal and just makes sense in every possible way, Forever Wolf is the book! I totally adore the series and would always recommend it but only if thinking out of the fictional trope box is your thing🥰

If you could invite 5 people, living or dead, for dinner, who would it be? A question Sabrina Nielsen answered in college and for some reason, those same 5 people show up for her 30th birthday dinner. Now it‘s up to her to find out why and along the way discover things about herself she never really knew

Wolf Apart | Maria Vale
post image
Pickpick

I cannot get enough of this series! I thought the first book, The Last Wolf was fantastic with its original world building and quite intense characters and unique plot but Wolf Apart takes it on another level. Elijah‘s loneliness for his home and pack and his inevitable isolation just leaps of the pages. There is an overarching plot but each book can be read as a standalone. Next book please!

This is the final book in one of my favourite series. Lauren Layne has captured that sudden magic when nest friends suddenly sees themselves as something more. It was perfect and for fans of the series, a bit bittersweet since it is a farewell as well for series.

So I totally fell in love with the cover of this book first and of course loved the modern twist on the Alice in Wonderland theme. Every one of the characters has traits that would lead to guessing which original Wonderland personality they are plus the romance is fantastic as well😍

New series from Lauren Layne, this one is set in Wall Street. It‘s a romance between a Wall Street Trader and an SEC investigator. Definitely learned a lot about high finance and the romance is equally as interesting!

Stripped | Tara Wyatt

First time I‘ve read a book by this author. Never knew this was one of those books that I would really like. Besides the role reversal, the female lead really kicks ass and there is an ongoing mystery that will probably get closure in succeeding books. Those are my personal romantic catnips!

Lady Rogue | Theresa Romain

So this one started out slowly and the dialogue between Isabel and Callum reflected it as well. But as the story progressed you can actually feel these two loosening up to each other from their interactions with each other. It‘s one of those stories that the more you keep reading the more your interest is caught.

Another weekend read! This was one had great reviews as well and so worth it! A very unique take on the beauty and the beast/marriage of convenience trope, this dialogue driven romance captures a witty, humorous and poignant tale about superficial appearances and what truly matters in Life and love. Emma is definitely a different historical romance heroine and Ash is clearly a different type of hero as well. Truly delightful page turner!

The long weekend has been a way to catch up finally on my reading. This new release from Marc Levy is a great start. A successful actress and a publicity shy novelist starts out as strangers, begin the journey as friends and ends up as more than that when they are in Seoul. Along the way they also find the courage to truly become themselves. It's a dialogue driven romantic comedy that will keep you laughing, thinking and smiling till the end😊
