| love felt like this • review ˖°.🍂. ࿔🎸*:･

this book is the definition of a cozy fall romance it literally put me to sleep every time i picked it up and i mean this in the best way bcs that's how a cozy fall romance should make you feel !!!

i usually avoid rockstar romances bcs the guys can be... annoying.. sometimes, but GRIFFIN HARVEYYY know that you're the exception. he's just a thoughtful and caring and grounded dad who completely worships his daughter!! and i'm a sucker for unique jobs in romance books so bev being a puppeteer trying to revive a children's tv show is ICONIC me thinks.

couldn't get enough of the sweetest found family dynamic as well 🥹🫶🏻 with bev’s relatives stepping up to help taking care of ava and all the banters between them were just so entertaining! ava won the lottery cs i too want to have a dad who writes me songs and a mom who makes me a tv show.

it’s a bit of a slow burn but it works so naturally. if you want a steamy but not overly spicy fall read with the cutest family vibes, this is the one!!

thank you @berkleyromance & @netgalley for the e-arc 💌

start a new book with me, but first, coffee! ˙✧˖°🧋 ༘ ⋆｡˚

the lovely @lunecoffeebrew kindly sent me a box full of coffee goodies so let’s make a coffee together 🤎

this box included-
⟡ moonlight brew cinnamon bun
⟡ moonlight brew salted caramel
⟡ cinnamoon syrup
⟡ golden midnight syrup
⟡ vanilla infusion
⟡ frother
⟡ wooden spoon

this coffee tasted absolutely devine! as a self proclaimed iced coffee queen, i can confidently say this coffee was a 10/10! the coffee flavour was rich & so tasty. the golden midnight syrup was sweet but not sickly, it was the perfect addition to the coffee and the vanilla fusion blended everything together beautifully! ✨

please go support this wonderful small business! thank you so much for sending me a box🤍

4.5☆

[ad/pr/gifted]

this was my first ever @carissabroadbentbooks book and it did not disappoint! i actually didn’t realise that this was the fifth book in the series but the way it was written, everything was explained perfectly! the world building was incredible.

we follow our divine warrior, kyrene and our vampire prince, septimus. kyrene is probably one of my favourite female characters i’ve read about. she’s fierce, full of rage & unapologetically herself! septimus, septimus, septimus!! the vampire of all vampires. i am OBSESSED with him. he was snarky, a survivalist & sooo cunning!

a very special mention to zefiah, the sword that kyrene wields throughout this book! her sarcastic nature was one of my favourite parts of this book. zefiah was entertaining, had a slightly motherly touch whilst also being powerful!

i need the next book like immediately because the last 10% was PAIN. also, im definitely going to read the first four books very soon!! i would most definitely recommend going in blind because it enhances the reading experience!

thank you so much to @bookbreakuk for sending me this gorgeous proof copy 💜

daybreak🏰💜🥀🕛

4.5 ☆

{ad/pr/gifted}

i have spent the past week getting lost in the world of alex & ophelia and in sorrowsong’s dark, gloomy & mysterious setting. daybreak was the perfect conclusion to this duology and i’m so sad that it’s over, i miss them (alex) already😫

daybreak follows from the insane cliffhanger we were left with in nightshade & wow! i was on the edge of my seat for part of it whilst simultaneously fangirling over mr alex yearner corbeu green and his obsession with ophelia! 🤭

i absolutely loved and admire the way @autumnwoods.author handled alex’s depression. she handled it with so much care, passion & love. alex was literally going through hell but the way he shows up for the women in his life? i am so obsessed🥺

ophelia, my sweet girl! she was so precious and i felt so, so proud watching her find her forever and her place in alex’s world. she really grew into herself in this book and i loved it. her & alex were absolutely perfect for each other🫶🏽

the found family in this book was arguably one of the best things about it. my favourite side character was most definitely vincenzo but they were all incredible in their own ways🥹

thank you so much to @libraryofchlo @bookbreakuk for having me on the blog tour for daybreak! im so grateful! 🥹💜

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5

The Friendship Fling by Georgia Stone is such an underrated romance and I genuinely don’t understand why more people aren’t talking about it because I had such a fun time reading it. 🫶

This book was funny, wholesome, and such an enjoyable read. I really loved the character development we got from the FMC and seeing her growth throughout the story. She had such strong black cat energy, while the MMC was the perfect golden retriever he was honestly so funny and brought so much charm to the story. 🥹

I also appreciated how the book touched on some more sensitive topics while still keeping that fun and comforting romance feel.

Overall, this was a really cute and refreshing romance that surprised me in the best way. I’m so glad I picked it up because I truly enjoyed my time with these characters. 💕

What’s a book you think deserves way more hype? 📚✨
