AUDIO REVIEW: Love Potions & Moonlight by Kota Quinn (Heart's Hollow)

Image
  LOVE POTIONS AND MOONLIGHT Heart’s Hollow by Kota Quinn Release Date: September 30, 2024 Audio Release Date: January 12, 2026 Review A purely sweet and warm story, set in a quaint small town full of all types of people, shifters, & magic users. Rook and his sister escaped their toxic pack, and he’s now living his dream, owning and running an apothecary. But he’s still not comfortable in his own skin, which keeps him from befriending the gorgeous witch he sees every day in the park across the street. Until his friends decide to meddle a bit. Autumn can’t explain it, but he can’t keep the sexy wolf out of his mind (or dreams!). But he’s a powerful witch and is being pressured to marry to keep the coven's magic alive. What ensues is a super sweet story, as they court, develop a beautiful bond, and discover a deep truth that will bring them all their hearts' desires. I really like the town that Kota has created, and I hope to read more. I would also be really happy to listen ...

AUDIO REVIEW: Hard Sell by Hudson Lin (Jade Harbour Capital #1)

  HARD SELL Jade Harbour Capital - Book One by Linden Bell Release Date: May 25, 2021 Review Deeply engaging story. Set in the corporate world, between best friend and younger brother. Danny is set on acquiring a company that Tobin is assigned to. It puts them at odds, though it doesn’t stop them from hooking up and going from crush to something so much more. I loved the Canadian and Asian rep, and I enjoyed the corporate setting without it being boss/employee.  I also appreciated the speed and way in which their relationship developed. I’m definitely going to be reading book 2! It was also my first audiobook by narrator Tyler Tetsuda, whom I enjoyed and who delivered a solid performance.

There’s nothing quite like being in the spotlight at my lowest point. I could use a break from LA and my agent—just for a little while. But Vermont in the middle of a blizzard? Probably not a great idea. However, the sexy lumberjack who lives next door is a sweet surprise. And so are his kids and the town. I like this place. I could be happy here…at least till my new season begins. Cooper My time is split between work and fatherhood. That’s it. Boss and Dad. Maybe ...

REVIEW: Next of Kin by Marie Sinclair (Legal Briefs #2)

Image
  NEXT OF KIN Legal Briefs - Book Two by Marie Sinclair Release Date: April 12, 2026 Review I enjoyed this pairing and it their unique meeting. And despite the theme of this story, it’s not dark or too depressing. They meet due to really sad circumstances, but their connection and courting is pretty sweet. Aaron and Nick are both good guys, and both are in need of finding their space in the world and someone to care for them. To see them as special. Especially as Aaron’s friend group is bit crap. It was a really good story, and I’m totally curious about Kit, because at this point, I don’t know if he’s likeable or not. Add to your TBR List GOODREADS LINK Synopsis Nick I've always been the playboy of my friend group. The guy who's never been without a boyfriend or girlfriend or at least a regular hookup since high school. But lately, casual isn't doing it for me. It's a fact that becomes abundantly clear when I can't get it up for a hot guy I met at a coffeeshop and i...
