“I know it’s insane to ask this but if you can go along with me for five minutes, I will personally plow and plant your fields whenever you want it. Okay?” ❤️🍓❤️🍓❤️🍓
Shay has her heart broken and receives news that she is the sole recipient of a family farm in Friendship, Rhode Island. There are just a couple of rules in order to keep it…she must live there for a year and in that year she must also get married 😬 Noah is a broody grump who owns the farm next door and is the sole guardian of his niece and has had a crush on Shay since they were best friends in high school…🔥
This had amazing tension and the spice was HOT 🥵 Noah is this big, gentle, grump who is anything, but “gentle” in the bedroom 🔥😮💨 I love Shay and Noah’s dynamic as a couple. His quirky niece was adorable. The town of Friendship was everything you love and hate about a small town. I absolutely loved this book 🥰

“He kissed me like it was the first time. He kissed me like it was the last time. He kissed me like it was forever.” 🌊🩷🌊🩷
She’s my best friend’s little sister. Completely off-limits. But every man has his breaking point…🫠🔥😬
Lila and Hugh — OH MY GOODNESS! They are pure spice! The tension is turned up high and when it finally starts to break — Whew 😅 it’s HOTTTT 🌶️🔥 Their story is incredibly sweet. Hugh helps her through so much even though Lila is very independent and doesn’t ever ask for anything.

“I’d missed Maddie like a limb—some intrinsic part of me I didn’t walk right without.” 🩷🏔️🩷🏔️🩷
Maddie is on her way back to Cedar Ridge after leaving her abusive ex fiancé. Maddie and Nash have been besties since childhood and have secretly always loved each other more than they let on….
This book was SO GOOD! I loved Nash & Maddie. The connection they have is incredible. The tension and suspense! This was such a fun read — definitely recommend.

“When you ignore me, I burn with restlessness; it feels as though the sun has turned its back on the world. And when you smile at me—when you gaze at me like you can see my soul—I feel … I feel like I am lit on fire, like you have been called by God to raze my world.” 🖤🖤🖤
Sara is a firefighter who drew the short straw and was sent on a mission — to kill the horseman. Pestilence is an immortal horseman sent by god to infect the human race with the plague. When their worlds collide and turn upside down, what they thought was their purpose completely changes…🤴🐎
I thought it was interesting, but I was enamored by it. The spice was okay, but not really what I was thinking. 🤷🏼♀️

“I don’t want anyone else, Stevie. There isn’t anyone else. Don’t you get it? You’re the only choice.” ❤️🏒✈️
Stevie is the gorgeous, curvy new flight attendant for the Chicago Raptors hockey team. Zanders is the team bad boy known for being a “player” 🔥 Stevie can’t stand him and he takes every moment he can to push her buttons…
This was such a fun read. The banter between Stevie and Zee was clever and 🔥. This was very spicy with a mix of sweetness 🥹 Definitely recommend this and can’t wait to read book 2!
