Review ~ Smoke Bomb by Abbi Glines

Smoke Bomb by Abbi Glines My rating: 4 of 5 stars I started this series recently, and each time I love coming back to this world. It was interesting to see which girl would catch Hucks eye, and Trinity was the right girl for him. Huck became quickly possessive of Trinity, laying his claim from the beginning. Being that she was engaged to his little...

Review ~ The Lovely Return by Carian Cole

The Lovely Return by Carian Cole My rating: 4 of 5 stars This book really had me questioning so much, like - does true love carry into the next life? Axel and Penny met at such a young age and each time you could see traces of life that she shouldn’t have known. They had a great friendship that grew strong over the years and their connection would...

Review ~ After by Anna Todd

After by Anna Todd My rating: 1 of 5 stars I’ve been meaning to read this book for years, so when it popped up on Kindle Unlimited, I grabbed it immediately. Too bad it was quite a disappointment. I struggled right to the end of the book and I know I won’t be reading more. These two were toxic together. Hardin was such a mean and controlling character,...

Review ~ I Thought of You by Jewel E. Ann

I Thought of You by Jewel E. Ann My rating: 5 of 5 stars Oh my heart. This was such a beautiful read. It bought tears to my eyes on multiple occasions, and I honestly could not put the book down. I loved getting to know Price and Scottie, how they crossed paths again after 12 years. We saw them rebuild their relationship and learning about one another...
