  10 WAYS TO ACCIDENTALLY FALL IN LOVE by Emmy Sanders Release Date: February 10, 2025 Review This was such an endearing, romantic, and fun story. I smiled the entire time. I’ll admit, normally a character like Brad, over the top and ridiculous, would annoy me, but through Emmy’s deft hand, I adored him. He was ridiculous, but also, so utterly charming and somehow completely innocent. Also, I really want a Brad hug! For some, he is A LOT, but Joey likes everything about him. And the fact that he was willing to endure a broken heart just keep him in his life - swoon! “Fuck. This man. I barely know him, and I’m already wondering what kind of fence he’d like around his backyard. White picket?” Through some hilarious misunderstandings, antics, and unacknowledged feelings Brad finds his way to falling for his Joey - and I fell in love with both of them just as much as they did each other.

Which I think we can all agree is a perfect place to fall in love. The dynamic between Percy and Finn is quite lovely.

  DESTRUCTION Crimson Bonds - Book One by Abrianna Denae & Leigh Kenzie Release Date: January 9, 2025 Review This is a multi-person, multi-perspective story twisting two established mob families together.  I can’t imagine following the story and characters without having read some of at least one of the parent series. Especially given the way in which the members of each family are so intertwined with one another. And it becomes even more complex as these two ally families are forced to work intimately to get their Bosses back. And yes, intimately, is a double entendre! It’s a dark world they’ve both built and will often make you a little uncomfortable and on the edge of your seat. It’s chaotic, so be prepared! Love and hate are fully embraced by these men, but weakness is not an option. Add to your TBR List GOODREADS LINK Synopsis Allies.

  RETURNING YOUR LOVE Pippen Creek - Book One by Lynn Burke Release Date: February 20, 2025 Review Oh man, Lynn put these men through it!!! And such talented writing. An emotional roller coaster of two best friends who deserve to be together, but life has steered them away, only to bring them back together at the worst times in their lives. They are both really likeable men whom you can’t help but root for, even if you can’t always see how they might get there. It was great to witness their growth and healing, but geez, it hurt at times. There are some other fantastic characters in town, that I’m truly excited to read their stories.
