In this college romance, Collide follows two Dalton University students with very polar opposite personalities and ambitions. Summer, psychology student with Honors, is determined to do whatever it takes to be accepted into her dream master’s…

In preparation for the second season of Heated Rivalry, which will hopefully include these characters, my Game Changers hockey romance series continues! I thoroughly enjoyed this book, it was really comforting and wholesome to get to know Ryan and Fabian, as they were side characters in The Long Game, who I didn’t know too much…

Truly manifesting fall to come sooner as I read this in July! It was everything I would want in a cozy autumn read, even if it’s really 90+ degrees outside. Cinnamon buns and hot coffee in July, anyone? In the second book of the Dream Harbour series by Gilmore, bookseller Hazel Kelly finds herself moping…

Hi, it’s me again! I finished this hockey romance at the beginning of the month but am just now getting around to write my official review of the book, so sorry, friends.

I want to give this one a 4.5 and Goodreads doesn’t do half-stars yet, but I can here! Offside, a college hockey romance, follows the relationship between Bailey James, journalism major and avid hockey fan, and Chase Carter, troublemaker, and stubborn rival to her brother’s hockey team. A forbidden romance, ha! After being broken up…

My, oh my, that was a SPICY book. My friend, as she handed me this book for my birthday, said, “This is the spiciest book I have ever read.” And I know it was going to be spicy, considering her past reads. If she thought it was spicy, even for her, I was in for…
