Book Review: The Summer Girl by Elle Kennedy
Easily one of my most swoon worthy summer reads, The Summer Girl, jumps right back into the world of Avalon Bay with one of my new favorite couples, Tate Bartlett and Cassie Soul.

Book Review: The Chateau by Jaclyn Goldis
It can be so easy to find a mystery that is filled with highly unlikable characters. It is much more difficult to find a thriller where you are actually invested in the lives of the characters and are rooting for a majority of them. The Chateau was a great find for that exact reason. ItContinue reading “Book Review: The Chateau by Jaclyn Goldis”

First, let’s talk about the main draw ofContinue reading “Book Review: Seven Rules for Breaking Hearts by Kristyn J Miller”

Book Review: The Raven Thief by Gigi Pandian
With twists, turns, and a suspicion of the paranormal, The Raven Thief quickly became one of my favorite cozy mysteries of the year. With engaging characters and a plot that left me guessing, while not perfect, this novel will not disappoint. The novel had an interesting hook.
