I don’t think I have felt emotionally gutted by a book before this book, honestly. Well, that’s a lie, it felt just as heart wrenching as If He Had Been With Me by Laura Nowlin, but in a different way. Not a depressing or tragic sort of emotional gutting, but just a tug at the…

When I found out there was a standalone story about the kids of the OG Off-Campus series, I had to get it! And the cover art is stunning, I love the pink-painted edges and music notes, so so cute! Regarding the story itself, I was hopeful. It was nice to see the family ties of…

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…

While Better Than the Movies by Painter has been one of my all-time-favorite reads, Betting on You was alright. It was cute, but not as engaging. Though I do have the experience of being a child of divorce, much like main characters, Bailey and Charlie, and seeing how fast and how much family dynamics can…

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…

Fake-dating, rich hockey player who wants out of the spotlight, but poor ballet dancer who needs the spotlight to land her dream role?! This was a FANTASTIC read, I could not put the book down, despite my tired eyes. Khabra does a phenomenal job of introducing our characters, Sage and Elias, without overdoing it. I…

I’m really wondering now if I need to switch up my tropes, dare I say I like friends-to-lovers more than enemies-to-lovers?! Maybe? I don’t know! Pham’s debut was BEAUTIFUL. Her story follows two childhood best friends who begin dating in high school for a short time before breaking up after an accident, not speaking one…

I LOVED this book. My book club was reading this book, around the same time I started watching the show, and I was hooked by the show, so I knew I needed to read the book. Though it can be read as a standalone, I decided to read Game Changers (Book #1) first to get…

The title covers it, folks. This romance comedy book is BETTER THAN THE MOVIES. With the enemies-to-friends-to-lovers trope, forced/shared proximity (as next-door neighbors), and fake dating, this book embodies every good thing seen in rom-com films all across the board. I could envision parts of 10 Things I Hate About You, How to Lose a…

Loved, loved, LOVED this Christmas/winter read! This book is one of the many within the Dream Harbour series; you can read it in a particular order or as a stand-alone. This one in particular is focused on the romance between bridesmaid, Annie, and groomsman, Mac. These two individuals have a history, and by golly, the…
