I hope y’all are having a great weekend, #bookst

I hope y’all are having a great weekend, #bookstagram! What are you guys reading or looking forward to reading?

I’m about to finish Forbidden Promises by Synithia Williams. I started this one a couple of weeks ago but set it aside since it won’t be out until the last week of February. I’ve gotten back into it and it’s a solid 4 star read for me.
It’s a difficult trope to write but Synithia Williams did a great job in fleshing out the dynamics between India and Travis and her sister who also happens to be Travis’ ex wife. Yeah. It’s one of those tropes that could easily go wrong but was handled well by the author.

Hey #bookstagram! Have you guys had your first 5 s

Hey #bookstagram! Have you guys had your first 5 star read this year?
.
.
I finally found mine! 😭😭 A Heart of Blood and Ashes by @authormillavane is my first 5 star read of the year! You guys, I loved this book! It’s brutal and breathtaking, it’s fantasy romance at its best!
.
.
I loved Yvenne. She’s my queen & I would die for her 😭 I totally get why Maddek tied himself up in knots to get her. Their story wasn’t an easy one. It gets dark and very violent. If you’re averse to gore, then you might need to brace yourself coz there’s gore aplenty.
.
.
But there’s also heat. So much heat and sexiness between Yvenne & Maddek, it makes going through all that gore worth it. 😂 .
.
If you guys are in the mood for fantasy romance, I highly recommend this book!
.

#ｑｏｔｄ - What’s your first 5 star read this year? .

Happy release week to Jenny Holliday! Mermaid Inn

Happy release week to Jenny Holliday! Mermaid Inn released last Tuesday and it’s now available everywhere. It’s the first book off of Matchmaker Bay novel and it’s SECOND CHANCE ROMANCE!! 😍😱👀❤️
.
.
#ｑｏｔｄ - Which books released this week are you guys reading and loving? Have you added the Mermaid Inn yet? 👀
.
.
Synopsis:

Eve Abbott has a problem--actually, make that a lot of problems. And they're all going to get worse the moment her toes hit the sand in Matchmaker Bay. Once a blissful summer escape, now the tiny town just reminds Eve of loss. Inheriting her aunt's beloved Mermaid Inn is the only reason Eve is coming back. She's definitely not ready to handle nosy neighbors, extensive renovations, or the discovery that a certain heartbreaker still lives down the street... .
Police Chief Sawyer Collins always does the right thing, even when it costs him everything. Like Evie. He's spent the past ten years trying to forget her--to forget how right she felt in his arms, to forget the pain in her eyes the day she left. The last thing he expects is to see her back in town or to find that the spark between them is as strong as ever. Sawyer knows this is his only chance to prove that his feelings have always been real... before Eve turns tail and leaves for good. .

Thanks to @readforeverpub and @holymolyjennyholi for the finished copy. 😍

I have so many ARCs to get through but I just couldn’t resist what has been described as “an angsty friends-to-lovers story” and so here we are. 😭😭😂

Second chance romance alert! Thanks to @readforeve

Second chance romance alert! Thanks to @readforeverpub for this beautiful stack of second-chance romances. .
.
Do you love the second chance love trope? It’s a hard trope to pull off but it’s done well, it’s just delicious! 😍
.
.
I chose these books because they all have a variation of this trope. Whether it’s a hopeless young crush that finally gets a chance, a dance that started years of pining or a love that finally gets requited—these books have them all. .
So which ones do you like? Do you have a second chance romance books you want to recommend. Write them in the comments below. .

Hey #bookstagram! I was finally able to get back t

Hey #bookstagram! I was finally able to get back to reading yesterday after a week of crazy at work! And I think it's totally fitting that the first book I chose was an Ilona Andrews novella. And it was so worth it!
.
.
Sweep With Me is a novella by Ilona Andrews and it follows the adventure of innkeeper Dina and her HEA, Sean as they try to house & manage two dozen space chickens, a mysterious liege from a magical planet, a timid raccoon, a space diplomat on a pilgrimage & a temperamental hedgehog chef. This novella is riot in the most fun way and I wish it wasn't so short. 😭😂
.
.
Anyway, this was a great start to my week. I hope you guys are reading something awesome!
.
.
#qotd - Star Wars or Star Trek? Which one do you like better??

#ｑｏｔｄ - How much do your book friends know

#ｑｏｔｄ - How much do your book friends know you? Do you have an obvious catnip that your friends immediately starts recommending books to you without being asked? 😂
.
.
My friend @victoriapaigebooks wrote this one and she told me I would like the hero, Nate. First chapter in and she was right on the me because I immediately liked Nate. 😍😍 Which is a tough thing to do because I’m really hard on heroes and I constantly pick on them. 😂
.
.
I’m only halfway through since I haven’t done any reading this weekend but I’ve liked what I read so far and I’m really liking Nate! I hope to finish this one today!
.
.
If you’re in the mood for romantic suspense with alpha men and strong sassy heroines, I highly recommend this series! .

Hey #bookstagram! I've been down with the flu sinc

Hey #bookstagram! I've been down with the flu since the other day and couldn't work much so I spent my time reading and finished this book in one sitting.
.
Every New Year by @katjacksonbooks is about two friends who are into each other but can't seem to actually be together. It's a romance that spans almost two decades with so much pining. I loved it so much!
.
I loved Ezra and Candace, both as individual characters and as a couple. Their individual journeys made the HEA all the more sweeter. And despite the fact that this book contain a non-linear timeline that usually drives me bonkers, it worked in this book so well that I couldn't see the story unfolding any other way. .
Katrina Jackson was able to weave a truly engaging romance with characters I immediately connected with and yes, I want more from this author. .
.
#qotd: Have you guys read any new to me authors already this year?

It’s only the seventh day of the year and I’ve already finished 2 books and starting a third one, like what? 😂
.
.
Considering that I didn’t finish my reading challenge last year, being able to finish two books in one week is such a miracle. I cannot wait to dive into Sanditon by Jane Austen and Kate Riordan.
.
.
Has anyone read this before? Or seen the PBS show? Share some of your thoughts! I’d love to hear them. .

Thank you @grandcentralpub for my review copy. .

Eeeeeep! It’s here!!! This was my Christmas gift for myself and it’s so worth it. 😍😍
.
.
Kate Daniels by Ilona Andrews is my favorite series of all time so when Ilona Andrews said they’re releasing a special edition of 6 stories set in the world of Kate Daniels plus all of Curran’s POV, I knew I got to have it. .
.
I have it and gorgeous!!! 😍😍😭😭

Happy new year, #bookstagram! Let’s talk reading

Happy new year, #bookstagram! Let’s talk reading goals. What are some of yours this year?
📖
📖
Mine are pretty straightforward: read more diversely & focus on quality instead of quantity. 📖
📖
Gone are the days where I would just pick up a book just to meet my Goodreads challenge. 😂 This year, I set mine at 12 books and i infinitely feel lighter and less pressured to read. 📖
📖
#ｑｏｔｄ - So what is your reading goal this year? Did you set any?
