It was so refreshing to see characters who have to deal with past traumas and a life-changing injury. My one complaint is how anti-climactic the climax was which kept this from being a higher rating. That being said, I still couldn't put it down and plan to read other books in the series.
Thanks so much to Netgalley and the publisher for the e-arc....more

Sweethand by N.G. Peltier was a fun contemporary romance that is perfect for summer. Cherisse and Kieran are a classic enemies to lovers pair and were delightful to read about. I enjoyed the secondary characters quite a bit and loved that it's set in Trinidad. And how cute is this cover??
The main thing that kept this from being a 4 star read or higher for me was the dialogue. Sometimes it was just a little too over the top for me. Otherwise, Sweethand is a cute, steamy romance you won't regret reading.
Chrystal Bethell was an excellent narrator for the story!

I haven't enjoyed a contemporary romance book this much since The Hating Game! Eve Brown and Jacob Wayne were so cute I couldn't stand it. I loved thaI haven't enjoyed a contemporary romance book this much since The Hating Game! Eve Brown and Jacob Wayne were so cute I couldn't stand it. I loved that the story mostly takes place at a B&B and the fact that it's all because Eve hit Jacob with her car is hilarious.
I haven't read either of the other books in the Brown Sisters series but I'm definitely going to now and didn't feel at all like I was missing out not having already read them. I know this is the last book but I think Talia Hibbert should explore Jacob's friends next *hint hint*
I loved the autistic representation and body positivity included as well. Overall, Act Your Age, Eve Brown is an excellent read to kick off the summer with!

I didn't think it could happen but One Last Stop is even better than Red, White & Royal Blue!
August, Jane, Niko, Myla, Wes, Isaiah/Annie and everyone else are just delightful and I loved the heartwarming, found family dynamic between them all even more than the slow building of Jane and August's relationship. The characters are as diverse as it gets and I could read a book about every single one of them. I also enjoyed that New York City felt like it's own character in the story and not just a random setting chosen for no reason. The whole time I was imagining what a good movie this would make.
Natalie Naudus did an amazing job narrating this eccentric group of characters and really brought them all to life.

This was a really cute read! I was skeptical of the senior citizen romance but it Eileen is sassy and I love her. I am always down for a good life swap story and this really made me want to watch The Holiday. I wasn't as interested in Leena's arc but it wrapped up nicely and I would 100% love to live in Hamleigh. It was full of self discovery, grief, family and humor.
Alison Steadman and Daisy Edgar-Jones are great narrators but Alison Steadman was absolutely perfect for the role of Eileen.

This was very reminiscent of Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine. Nina Hill is an avid reader who suffers from anxiety. There were a lot of things I enjoyed about this book but I did want more depth from it. Instead, it felt more like a shallow rom-com that didn't have me very emotionally invested.
Despite that, it was a light, quick read that is perfect for the beach. ...more
