Another emotional story! You can definitely feel the struggles that Easton and Bodhi dealt with. The strength to endure these obstacles as a family was wonderful to witness.
The narrators did another great job portraying these characters.

Finding You is a sweet small town romance.
Mackenzie and Devin’s story was a fast paced, light read. Both characters had really good personalities and their story was entertaining. I love the meddling small town of Sweet Briar.

Firefly Effect is a single parent, small town romantic suspense.
Evie and Lincoln’s story was enthralling, and I could not put this book down! The chemistry between them was instant and palpable. The small town drama, mystery and intimate moments were captivating. Lincoln’s child was adorable and had me wrapped around their finger. Another well written story!

Fighting with Faith is book 2 in the Fighting series. It’s a second chance, secret pregnancy romance.
Bentley and Kayla had an intense connection from first meet. He fell first, but Kayla’s troubled past left her jaded and not looking for love. I loved how patient and sweet he was and so happy they were able to overcome their obstacles. Plenty of drama, emotion and steamy moments in this book. I enjoyed their found family and cannot wait for Caleb’s story!
Auri Alden and Theo Sinclair did a really nice job bringing these characters to life.

Corium University is books 1-3 in the Corium University series. It’s a dark, bully romance.
Aspen and Quinton’s story was non stop action, with plenty of drama and steamy moments. The chemistry between these two was intense and all consuming. The back and forth verbal sparring and plot twist made for an addictive read. I loved the ending in book 3. I’m excited to begin the next book.
Zara Edén and Connor Brown did a really nice job portraying these characters. They brought this story to life.

Book #2 in the Blade and Sasha definitely had my stomach in knots! I think it needs a trigger warning. The continuation was dark and gut wrenching. It displayed Sasha’s strength and perseverance and Blade’s determination to keep fighting for their love and future. Non stop action and drama had me devouring this book as well.
Angelina Rocca and Michael Norman Johnson did another great job narrating.

Book #1 in the Blade and Sasha duet was an interesting MC romance.
Blade and Sasha are opposites in every way, but the attraction and chemistry can be felt through the pages. Attention grabbing action and drama had me devouring their story. This book ends in a jaw dropping cliffhanger, and I can’t wait to see how their story continues.

Wow this book was so good! Kingston and Sawyer had such intense chemistry and their sexual tension was explosive. The angst filled drama & action held me captive until the end. I loved sweet Hadley and her connection towards King.

Perfect Pursuit (Midas #7) is a small town, age gap romance.
Ethan and Fallon’s story drew me in from the very first page. The chemistry between them was explosive and I loved how their connection grew throughout the book. Fallon’s feisty personality paired so well to Ethan’s protective/mysterious side. I liked getting glimpses of the other lovely couples and friend group. This author never fails to bring so much emotion, angst and tender moments with her characters.
