This was such a good weekend book, perfect to hide from the rain! So many moments that made me smile, swoon, and be happy for Parker and Ethan. I love them, and the way their relationship developed. It had a great balance between the fake relationship, the kink lessons, and admitting their true feelings!

This book was adorable! It felt like reading a cute Hallmark rom-com, and I wish I could visit Juniper Creek. It sounds like such a great little small town!

This book made me so happy! It’s just amazing. Mal is the perfect grumpy golden retriever, anxiety and all. I loved the representation in this book, and my heart squeezed a little each time that he realized that April cared for him. There were so many sweet and squealing moments, I teared up several times throughout the story, the slow burn was delicious, and I was so happy to be back on Isle of Skye for a while!

You know a book is great when you catch yourself thinking about it when you’re not reading, and sneaking in pages every chance you get! This was one of those books, I loved it so much!

Yes, yes, yes! This book is just perfect! I love Collin and Harper so much, they’re amazing. They’re so cute together, it’s the best. I read way past my bedtime, I just didn’t want to stop this story. All of the good vibes, all of the feels!
This whole series makes me so happy, it’s so good!

This book has so many goodies, it’s hard to pick my fave! The love, the chocolate, the family, the drinks, the fake engagement turned real marriage of convenience turned love, the playing with toys, it was all so good!
I kept switching between ebook and audio, and you can’t go wrong which one you pick. Just make sure you read it!

I loved this book so much! Hayden and River are both amazing, and they’re so good for each other. I loved all the cute and giddy moments as their relationship developed, and how they could lean on the other during harder moments. It was also great that just because they found each other, it didn’t mean their traumas just magically disappeared. The story had a great balance between dealing with the more serious parts and having the sweet and steamy moments too. So good!
And I’m so curious about Quinn, so happy his story is up next!

When I pick up a Layla Reyne book, I know the suspense plot will be great. That’s exactly what I needed when I started What We May Be, and it was so good! I loved it! The romance felt a bit more like a subplot to the story, but that didn’t make it less enjoyable. Sean, Trevor, and Charlotte are clearly soulmates, they’re just amazing together!
