  FROST AND FIRE Christmas at Hall Farm - Book One by Ana Ashley Release Date: November 21, 2025 Review I love me some Ana Ashley at Christmas! Small-town goodness with farm animals who don’t know they are farm animals, lots of button pushing, found family, and a side of hurt/comfort. Sebastian has two loves: his band and his family farm. And 25 years later, it’s time to take a break from living the celebrity life and come home for good. But coming home means seeing his next-door neighbour, who also happens to be his best friend's brother. Their age gap, loss of their brother/best friend, and secret pinning have made for a confusing relationship. Taylen wants to believe that his crush has come home for good, but the desire to protect his heart means keeping Bastien at bay. And what better way than to make digs via ‘gifts’.  If only they could learn to talk instead of just kissing! Honestly, they are a gorgeous couple, and I love the future they’re building and the family/frien...

  BITTERSWEET Dads of Stillwater - Book Five by Ana Ashley Release Date: August 1, 2025 Review What a great novella.  Sweetness galore.  Just a story to make you smile and indulge in cozy vibes.  A cafe owner in desperate need of a baker, and a baker in need of a home. Constantine swans in like a baking saviour, with a dejected teenager in tow, and turns Julius’ life upside down. In the most beautiful and sugar-filled way.  I love how these three become a family, and I especially loved watching Leo (Constantine’s brother) shine and come into his own. Add to your TBR List GOODREADS LINK Synopsis Things I like: bitter coffee, competency…oh and the guy that breezes into my coffee shop like a shot of espresso—bold, invigorating, and impossible to ignore.

With his teenage br...
