Book reviews for books read in February 2026

  February came and went in the blink of an eye. I read one ARC, and two new-to-me authors. I also mood read a monster romance by the fabulous Caroline Lee/Veronika Kane. I was able to attend the Wild & Windy West book signing in Phoenix where I met both Jade Dollston and Sara L. Hudson. They were both wonderful and I have special edition books on my shelf now to prove it. I was glad I was able to go to the signing. With the way the last 12 months have gone, that was never guaranteed. All four of these books were true gems and I can't believe I am almost to the end of the first week in March before getting this blog review post finished. I am very excited about getting back to the three series I started in February, but I will tell you that March and April are stacked with ARCs and I am just trying to keep up. Check my reviews. Add these books to your TBR. And until next time, happy reading! It Seemed Like a Good Idea at the Time  (Darling Springs #1) by Lauren Blakely A...

Book reviews for books read December 9th-31st

  Welcome to the end of 2025. In December I read a total of 8 books plus a collection of erotic short stories that I left unrated. In this post you will find reviews for my last 5 reads of the year. Four of them are by new-to-me authors. They are all very good and would be good additions to your TBR. After taking a step back from several ARCs these last few months, I found myself really leaning into mood reading. I found myself drawn to FB ads while mindlessly scrolling and gave into the urge to check out those books on several occasions. It was delightful. I hope my reviews help you find your next read. Here's to wishing all of us a happy 2026 full of books, love, and happiness.

Book reviews for books read January 25th-31st

  Happy weekend. Can you believe that January is over? In some ways it felt like it took forever and in others it flew right by. I read two ARCs and two books off my TBR this week. Personally, this week has brought huge changes to my life. I am hanging in there, but my brain is a little scattered and reading has been difficult. In the coming months, I will do my best to keep up with my reading, this blog, and the romance book world. Meanwhile, I hope you still look to my reviews to add to the never-ending TBR we all have. Until next time, happy reading.

Book reviews for books read January 11th-18th

  Happy weekend! I read five books this week. All by authors I have read previously.  I have continued with the Arranged Monster Mates novella series, gone back to the beginning of the Howl's Edge Island series, and read one of Susie Tate's that has been on my TBR. I also read an ARC by Harlow James that was amazing and Lilian Harris' new release which kept me n the edge of my seat. My dad is doing much better and I get to fly home tonight and resume all of my regular life duties and responsibilities.  I look forward to the books I have planned for the next week. Have you read anything great lately? If so, give me the recs in the comments on this post.  Until next week, happy reading.

Book reviews from the week of August 7th

  Happy weekend.  This week I read one ARC and finished an audiobook reread of another book I started last week.  Carly Phillips adds to the Kingston Family world with Jade Dare's love story.  You don't want to miss this one.  My listen of Rockaway Bride by Pippa Grant was a fun and relaxing treat. I really enjoyed going back to my first Pippa book with audio and the narrators did a fantastic job bringing the story to life.  I wish everyone a week of happy reading and good stories.
