Sky of Dreams: A Young Adult Epic Fantasy (Realms of Radiance Book 1) by [Kate Renae]

Title: Sky of Dreams
Series: Realms of Radiance #1
Author: Kate Renae
Release Date: May 12th, 2023
Genre: Fantasy

What if mental illness was a sign of rare magic?

Kenya Sawyer sees herself as broken. In the struggle against her own mind, she’s always been afraid she’ll jump and fall.

She never expected to jump into another realm entirely.

Two years after the murder of her best friend, Lia, Kenya returns to San Francisco.

She isn’t exactly met with open arms. Lia’s twin brother, Luka, still hasn’t forgiven her for leaving, and the memory of Lia is everywhere.

As Kenya tries to return to a normal life, her mind begins to spiral. She’s plagued by vivid dreams: a city of magic, Lia trapped and begging for help, and a violet sky of dreams… and nightmares.

Kenya thinks the images are proof of her broken mind — until she and Luka accidentally fall into a realm with that same violet sky. There, they learn that Kenya has magic: realm-jumping magic that no one has seen for five thousand years.

Suddenly, it’s possible that Lia could still be alive, trapped in this new realm. As Kenya and Luka explore a city of magic to find her, they ignore the feeling that something has changed between them, something beyond childhood affection. But what they need to do is keep each other alive, because if they don’t focus on finding Lia, they may get pulled into wars and worlds they never imagined.

That is, if the broken trust between them doesn’t prove deadly first.

Book Review:

Wow! What a story! This is my first book from Ms. Renae and it was such an enveloping world! Kenya Sawyer feels broken, especially from the struggle in her mind. Two years after the murder of her best friend, Lia, Kenya has returned to San Francisco. But Lia’s twin brother Luka hasn’t quite forgiven her for leaving and the memories of Lia are everywhere. In the attempts to return to a normal life, Kenya is plagued by vivid dreams of a city of magic, Lia trapped and begging for help, and a violet sky of dreams and nightmares. When she and Luka fall into a realm with that same violet sky, they discover that Kenya has realm-jumping magic, the like that has not been seen there for five thousand years. With the possibility that Lia could be alive and in this realm, Kenya and Luka explore the city of magic. They try to ignore the feelings that have grown beyond childhood affection. However, they must focus on staying alive as they are pulled into wars and worlds beyond their imagination. But will the broken trust prove deadly first?

I am a bit overwhelmed with how to even respond to this book! First, of all, I haven’t been able to read a lot of YA fantasy recently, so that was a treat! Sky of Dreams was such a unique consideration of magic as well. I loved the thought of different realms and the magical system (I don’t want to give spoilers so I will be a bit vague).The story was so engaging and full of twists and turns. I had no idea what was coming next! There was action, intrigue, secrets revealed and a shocking cliffhanger!

Oh Kenya! I felt so bad for her! She was definitely struggling, but so determined, She desperately wanted to find Lia and to get back to a sense of normality. She was trying so hard to be strong and to overcome the battles in her mind, even when she was having bad days. I admired her kindness and tender heart. She was drawn into the conflicts of the realm she entered because of her heart for those who were hurting and struggling. Luka was quite the contrast. Even though he was struggling like Kenya, he just hid it better. He was still haunted by Lia;s death and Kenya leaving. He was very careful with others and guarded, especially in the new environment they found themselves in. I loved how they supported each other. Their relationship still had a lot of tension from the past, but I enjoyed seeing them grow through it. I loved meeting all of the characters in the world they jumped into. I am excited to learn more about them!

This was definitely a wild ride! I really enjoyed it and can’t wait to read the sequel! It does directly move into the next book, so just be ready for that. This is a YA book that deals strongly with mental health as well as prominently dealing with a death. It is PG13 level in terms of language, fantasy violence, and romance.

Desire or Defense

About the Book:

Desire or Defense: An Enemies-to-Lovers Hockey Romance (D.C. Eagles Hockey Book 1) by [Leah Brunner]

Title: Desire or Defense
Series: DC Eagles Hockey #1
Author: Leah Brunner
Release Date: April 18th, 2023
Genre: Romantic Comedy

I’m not the hero in this story.

I’m the villain…

The notoriously angry, grouchy, D.C. Eagles defenseman that just can’t keep his temper in check. The temper that leads to a fifteen game suspension from the NHL.

As if that’s not bad enough, I’m forced into a short term youth-hockey coaching gig. Which my manager swears will “rebuild my image.”

But what I didn’t expect was for a gorgeous, spunky blonde to stomp onto the ice on day one and lecture me about being rude to her little brother.

Something about this spitfire of a woman, and the boy she’s so protective of, has my defenses melting.

And if I’m not careful, I’ll burst into flames, forever melting the ice I’ve carefully kept around my heart.(This is a closed-door romcom with mild language. Trigger warnings include: parental substance abuse & dealing with grief/loss of parents).

Book Review:

Ahhh! This was just a wonderful start to a new series. I am already invested in the characters. Desire or Defense is the first book in Leah Brunner’s Hooked on a Feeling. Okay, so Brunner is an excellent writer and I was super excited for this new series. It was just as good as I had hoped!

Andi was a lot of fun. I loved her spunk and how she cared for her brother, she was just trying her best. Andi was a strong character and it was fun to get to know her and see her match Mitch. It was hilarious to see that she didn’t know anything about hockey but how she would do anything for Noah.

Mitch was such a complicated character, but I loved his depth. He was struggling and he didn’t know how to deal with life. It was sweet to read about him connecting with Noah and then Andi. They broke down his walls. Mitch had to learn to fight for his future and hope for the best even when obstacles came.

Mitch and Andi were fun to read about. They had great chemistry and I loved seeing them fall in love. I loved how they connected over Noah and how they tried to be their best for him. The side characters were a lot of fun and I can’t wait to read the next books! I enjoyed reading about their interactions and how they stood by each other. The whole team needs their own books!

Desire or Defense is a must read! It is a closed-door hockey romantic comedy.

Rook to King

About the Book:

Title: Rook to King
Series: Love and Treasure #1
Author: Carina Taylor
Release Date: April 13th, 2022
Genre: Romantic Adventure

romantic adventure

Bodie King

My entire life revolves around convincing people to do what I want. Some people call me a con man. Some people call me…other things. I prefer to call myself a broker. (I even made business cards, so it must be official.)

Charming someone into helping me has never been a problem—until now.

The Bennetto chess set is rumored to lead to a priceless fortune. Who better to find it than me? I need an authenticator to help me buy the missing pieces of the chess set. The problem is finding someone who knows the set but is still honest—a quality I lack.

Enter Gracen Winthrop. She’s knowledgeable. Annoyingly trustworthy. And, most importantly, available.

After some persuasion, she seems to catch the treasure hunting bug as well. Unfortunately, I don’t actually want to share.

Now Gracen refuses to be left behind, despite a homicidal, grudge-holding ex-employee of mine chasing after us. I can’t protect her…but turns out she can handle herself just fine.

The closer we get to the chess set, the slower I want to find it. Because once I find the missing pieces? I’m going to disappear into the sunset, never to see Gracen again.

But Gracen has her own secrets…and how could I expect her to ever love a con?

Book Review:

This was such a fun book! I have read almost all of Carina Taylor’s books, but this one had a very different, heist movie vibe to it.

I loved Bodie! He was such a sweetheart underneath all his conman exterior. But it was also fun to read about a morally gray MC. He is not the good guy, and he is unashamedly a thief and a conman. But he also plays by a different set of rules. It was fun to watch him try and grapple with who he was and who he wanted to be.

Gracen was an awesome character! She had so many layers to her, and it was fun to see her character grow and change. I feel like the big reveal for her character felt very genuine too which I loved. It didn’t seem to come out of nowhere. Let’s just say that there is more to this antique expert than meets the eye.

My favorite part was the banter between Gracen and Bodie! It was just perfect. So funny and on point for both of these characters. They drove each other insane in the best way possible 😉

The side characters in this one were hilarious! I loved Oscar and Gracen’s family. They were so much fun! Gracen’s family is insane but in a super awesome, dysfunctional way. And I loved all of the Fletcher and Saidy cameos. Poor Fletcher was so frustrated by Bodie, and it was so funny!

I loved the action in this book. The plot was entertaining and exciting without ever taking away from the characters and their development. I would recommend this clean adventure romcom! There is some mild language and action.

That Time I Kissed the Groomsman Grump

About the Book:

That Time I Kissed The Groomsman Grump: A Sweet Romantic Comedy by [Julie Christianson]

Title: That Time I Kissed the Groomsman Grump
Series: That Time I #1
Author: Julie Christianson
Release Date: April 24th, 2023
Genre: Romantic Comedy

The second dumbest thing I ever did was let my brother’s best friend kiss me …

BRADY

Yeah, I shouldn’t have kissed Natalie Slater.

Not on the porch. Or at the beach. Or in the storage closet. Especially not the storage closet. But to be fair, she kissed me first. Six months later, I’m still thinking about it.

Trouble is, I’ve made promises that tie me to our small town, while Natalie can’t wait to escape. I’ve got no business pursuing her or my secret ambitions. My future’s set, and good people here are depending on me. Too bad my gut’s not listening to reason, and I’m being pulled toward different dreams: the career I’ve always wanted, and the woman whose smile I can’t forget…

NATALIE

Brady Graham and I used to be friends. For a while there, I was even the teensiest bit attracted to him. But Brady’s sister is marrying my brother, and my brother is Brady’s best friend. How awkward would family dinners be if things went south? We need to let our mutual attraction fizzle out.

Except…nothing seems to be fizzling. With all the time we’re spending together as Maid of Honor and Best Man, our attraction’s just burning hotter. Then the guy decides to show me his secret soft side. Hot and vulnerable? So. Not. Fair.

Because the only heat I need in my life is the sunshine in Los Angeles. I’ve made commitments on the west coast, and I can’t risk being sidetracked by Broody Brady.

I just need to put three thousand miles between me and his so-not-fairness…

Book Review:

Such a cute story! Both Brady and Natalie know that a relationship is not a good idea. Brady is tied to their small town and the people in it. He can’t pursue her or his secret ambitions. Yet he feels pulled towards his dreams of the career he has always wanted and the woman who he can’t forget about. Natalie is ready to leave and has started making plans for a life in Los Angeles. Besides with Brady’s sister marrying Natalie’s brother and her brother being Brady’s best friend, they don’t need to add any awkwardness. They just need some time to let things settle…right?

It was so exciting to read this after being able to read That Time I Kissed my Brother’s Best Friend! You got to see the beginning hints of Brady and Natalie there. Natalie was so sweet. She felt a bit out of place in their small town where everyone had known everyone since birth. But she was so willing to help and to support, especially with Kasey’s wedding. I admired how she sought to be upbeat and encouraging, especially with Brady. She had to think through why she wanted what she had been pursuing. Brady was so sweet. He was a bit gruff, but definitely showed his tender side with Natalie. He felt like his commitments were weighing on him. He was so responsible and considerate.

It was fun to watch the antics of the wedding preparations and planning. Both Brady and Natalie had good relationships with their siblings and it was sweet to see how they tried to support them. I also loved how Brady and Natalie supported one another. They were both trying to look out for the other. As always, the side characters were hilarious! I love how Ms. Christianson’s books make you so invested in the whole cast of characters. I loved the small town vibes and the super-involved family! I enjoyed seeing old characters coming back into the story too! This is a closed-door romance that is part of a series, but can be read as a standalone.

Matched with Her Athletic Boss

About the Book:

Matched with Her Athlete Boss (Romance by Love, Austen Book 3) by [Britney M. Mills]

Title: Matched with Her Athletic Boss
Series: Romance by Love, Austen #3
Author: Britney M. Mills
Release Date: April 2nd, 2023
Genre: Romantic Comedy

Being matched isn’t for the faint of heart. Especially after the relationship train wreck I’ve been through.

After a rough year, both in relationships and her career, Kenzie Sullivan has sworn off dating and decided to take the self-employment route. She never thought it would lead her to landing Trey Hatch, her longtime crush, as a client. She tries to keep life separate, but Trey keeps worming his way through every wall she puts up, giving her a sliver of hope that something could happen between them.

Trey is ready to share his busy hockey life with someone. When his agent sets him up to be part of a matchmaking docuseries, he’s not sure that’s the way to find love. But after spending time with Kenzie, and convincing her to try the matchmaking app again, he’s hoping she’ll be one of his matches.

As their relationship progresses, will they stay friends or take things to the next level?

Book Review:

This was cute and fun! I was super excited to read this book because I really enjoyed the previous book and it did not disappoint. Matched with Her Athletic Boss is the third book in Britney M. Mills’ Romance by Love, Austen series.

Trey and Kenzie were super sweet to read about. I loved how they connected and how they really seemed to care about each other. Kenzie was such a unique character, she had a lot of past hurts to work through. However I loved her stubbornness and her kind heart. She was working hard to make her new business work, she never expected to fall in love along the way. Trey was also a sweetheart. I loved how he was looking for a family. It was cute to read about him connecting with Kenzie and falling in love.

The romance was sweet and the characters were engaging. I liked how it also showed Kenzie’s family and their interactions, it was lovely. It was fun to read about Kenzie and Trey falling in love. I like the way Mills did her matchmaking part of this book, it was perfect.

I would recommend Matched with Her Athletic Boss to those who enjoy relatable characters and a sweet romance. Matched with Her Athletic Boss is closed door romantic comedy.

More Than a Silly Crush

About the Book:

Title: More Than a Silly Crush
Series: Cowboys of Stargazer Springs Ranch Rom Com Series #4
Author: Remi Carrington
Release Date: April 15th, 2023
Genre: Romantic Comedy

I only saw him as my best friend’s little brother . . . until I married him.

Getting pregnant before the wedding wasn’t my plan, but surprise! Then my fiancé (correction, ex-fiancé) tells me to take care of the problem. And that’s how he becomes my ex.

But being a single mom in this small town won’t be easy. Maybe not even possible. I’m a large animal vet. It’s not like I can take my baby to work with me.

Then my best friend’s younger brother drops to one knee and proposes so that I won’t be a single mom.
After hours of pondering, I accept Parker’s impulsive proposal.

Romance has never been part of our relationship, but he treats me better than anyone I’ve ever dated. He’s caring, protective, and more than a little good looking. Way more than I deserve.

But I really didn’t think about the day-to-day of married life. Or what it would be like to see him without a shirt all the time. He’s no longer the scrawny kid who liked to tag along. He’s a full-grown cowboy and quickly becoming my best friend. (Well, my other best friend)

Just when I think maybe a happily-ever-after is possible, tragedy strikes.

Now that there’s nothing to save me from, I have to let him go. But walking away from my knight in shining armor will absolutely shatter my heart.

Ripped and Shipped

About the Book:

Ripped & Shipped: An Enemies to Lovers, Fake Dating Romcom (Getting Shipped! Book 7) by [Savannah Scott]

Title: Ripped and Shipped
Series: Getting Shipped #7
Author: Savannah Scott
Release Date: May 5th 2023
Genre: Romantic Comedy

If you had asked me if I’d ever be dating Chris St. James, well, let’s just say it’s more likely Jimmy Choo would name a shoe after me.

Which, Jimmy, if you’re out there, the “Ella Mae” would definitely be a big seller. Call me, Mkay?

But, back to Chris. Sure, he’s handsome. I mean, his arms are as big as my legs! He’s got those lips that would make Michelangelo pause and grab a rock to start sculpting. And when you top his looks off with the whole hero-vibe he has going for him. Yes. He’s a fine specimen of manhood.

But, Chris is closed off, and judgy. And even if he weren’t, we’re from two separate sides of our town.
Remember Romeo and Juliet? That didn’t end so well, did it?

Besides, Chris and I don’t have any desire to date, or even talk to one another most days.
We’re not exactly what you’d call friends.

But, here’s the thing. You never know what situations life is going to throw at you. And right now, I’m in a doozie. Which means, Chris St. James–yes, that brawny, broody man–is now my boyfriend.

Well … He’s not really my boyfriend.
But don’t tell anyone.

Book Review:

I was so excited for this book! And a little nervous because I was so excited 🙂 But I shouldn’t have worried because Savannah Scott did not disappoint! Ella Mae and Chris finally get their HEA.

Okay, I honestly am not sure if I really liked Ella Mae from the first couple books, but as I kept reading the series, you get the feeling that there is more to her than meets the eye. And there is so much more to her than the annoying cell phone obsessed influencer. She’s kind, funny, and somehow a perfect mix of insecurity and confidence. I loved her! She was dealing with so much, and I loved getting to pull back the layers to her character.

Chris was such a sweetheart! He’s a soldier through and through, and he is not amused by Ella Mae’s antics. But it was so sweet to watch him fall in love with her! He got to see past all of her walls to who she really was. And it was adorable to see how she made him relax and enjoy life. He didn’t really know how to have fun before being with her. And I love how he steadied her and made her open up.

The town was more frustrating in this one. You really got to see how badly Ella Mae was treated, and it’s very irritating! But let’s just say that there’s a happy ending.

I loved this book! It was the perfect ending to the Getting Shipped series! It is a clean romcom with only some swoony kisses 🙂

Glass Midnight: A Cinderella Retelling (The Cursed Kingdom Chronicles Book 2) by [Kayla Eshbaugh]

Title: Glass Midnight
Series: The Cursed Kingdom Chronicles #2
Author: Kayla EshBaugh
Release Date: April 11th, 2023
Genre: Fairytale Retelling

Welcome to the ancient land of Terra, where curses run rampant throughout all the kingdoms and where the royalty desperately attempt to break their curses and claim their own happily ever afters.

Princess Gabriella wasn’t cursed at birth like the other royals.
Although not cursed, she feels as if she might as well have been for the threat of the neighboring kingdom of Lune is ever present. This threat of war has forced her into growing up with a unique set of skills. Not only can she amaze with her beauty and grace on the dance floor, but her skill with a blade is unparalleled by any of the knights in her kingdom.

Prince Wesley isn’t sure that he’ll live to see himself crowned king, as his curse prevents him from being king unless someone loves him for himself and not his crown. His uncle, the regent believes if he wears a mask and keeps his identity a secret he can find a maiden to love him for who he truly is. Hidden all his life from everyone his mask hides more than just his face—he fears that no matter who he meets, or gets close to all they will ever see is the mysterious masked prince—not who he truly is underneath it.

Book Review:

The next in The Cursed Kingdom Chronicles is a lovely story inspired by Cinderella. Although Princess Gabriella wasn’t cursed at birth like the other royals, she feels the ever present threat from the neighboring kingdom of Lune. This threat has caused her to grow up with a unique set of skills, beautiful dancing skills along with incredible skill with the blade. Prince Wesley isn’t sure if he will live to see himself crowned king with his curse that requires someone to love him for himself, not his crown. His uncle, the regent, believes that wearing a mask to keep his identity secret will find him a maiden who will love him for who he truly is. However, after hiding his face all his life, he fears that no one will truly see who he is beyond the mysterious masked prince.

I was really excited to read Wes’s story. We met him in the first book, so it was cool to see him again! It did take me a little longer to really get into this book. I had a bit more trouble staying engaged with the story. However, overall I enjoyed it! Wes is really fun and a bit mischievous. But he really cared about his sister and wanted to be a good ruler for his kingdom. His relationship with Odette was adorable and it was so fun to see his friendship with Sir Thomas. I loved the brotherly teasing that they did! The story watches him grow into understanding his position as crown prince more and his ability to help his kingdom.

Ellie was so cool! I loved her devotion to her father and kingdom. She really felt the weight of the responsibility of being the princess. She was swept up into a romance with Wes, which was adorable! Yet throughout it all, she had the big picture in mind. I admired her dedication. She and Wes were also so sweet, they both were able to relax and be themselves with the other.

I enjoyed seeing more into the world of Lune and Solea, as well as seeing more into the lives of other royals. It was fun to see the threads of the fairytale woven through as well. Wes and Ellie had to work to ensure Luna and Solea would have peace and to break Wes’s curse. It was also exciting to see old characters and hints of next books! This is a sweet fairytale-inspired romance, with only some kissing!

I should enjoy this while I can, because it’s temporary. It’s fake.
I’m a party of two, and once he finds out, there is no way he’ll want us.
Will he?

Book Review:

This was such a cute book! This is my first book by Anne William, and I loved it!

Skylar was such a fun character. There were layers to her, and I loved watching her learn to trust Isaac. She had been burned in the past, and she was trying to turn her life around for herself and for her baby. Skylar is pregnant at the beginning of the book, but nothing is shown at all. I loved watching her learn to trust Isaac and also hope for a better future.

Isaac was such a nice guy! He seemed like a flirt, but in reality, he was a total softie. I loved how much he adored Skylar. It was definitely an adorable he falls first book.

This was a fun, short read! I wanted to keep reading, but it wasn’t stressful at all. I love books that make me smile and laugh without making my heart hurt. I would definitely recommend this clean closed door romcom!

Royal Gone Rogue

About the Book:

Royal Gone Rogue: A Sweet Royal RomCom (Sweet Royal RomCom Series Book 2) by [Emma St. Clair]

Title: Royal Gone Rogue
Series: Sweet Royal Rom-com #2
Author: Emma St. Clair
Release Date: February 248h, 2021
Genre: Romantic Comedy

“You can’t choose a wife based on a spreadsheet.”

“It’s a RUBRIC.”

“Even worse!”

With the king’s health in decline, the time is short for Crown Prince Phillip of Elsinore to choose a suitable wife.

Preferably NOT one of the many titled women who seem only interested in the crown.

Like the logical, responsible man he is, Phillip treats this task the way he does everything else–analytically, with measurable data points.

Leaving Elsinore in secret, Phillip travels to a tiny Italian village to meet the woman best matching his qualifications. The plan is to present Alessia with a proposal of marriage and return to the palace before anyone notices his absence.

What he didn’t plan for: FEELINGS.

His–almost immediate, gut-punching attraction like he’s never felt.

Hers–seeming dislike and distrust like he’s never experienced.

Phillip’s very practical plan has been replaced with a new one: to stay on and win Alessia’s affection at any cost.

Even if the cost is walking away from the crown …

Book Review:

I loved this book! I have been waiting for Phillip to get his HEA, and this was just adorable. Plus, it was cute having a Cinderella style romance.

Phillip was just so cute! I had already liked him from Royally Rearranged, but I loved getting to see him in his own book. It was fun to see him opening up with Alessia. In so many ways, he thought he was a robot, but when he met Alessia everything changed. He had always had to be the responsible one in the family, but Alessia helped him relax and be a person instead of a prince.

Alessia was such a fun character! She had to work through a lot of fear in her life and decide whether she wanted Phillip. She was such a strong person, so I loved how Phillip supported her and made her want a life outside her tiny village.

The romance in this one was little instalove, but I feel like it fit the two of them. They were both such sensible people, so it was fun to see them unravel a little! And the interactions between them were so cute. I loved all the swoony but clean kisses.

And the royal family comes back in this book too! Callum has totally redeemed himself in my eyes, and I loved getting to see Phillip’s sister too. Their family dynamic was hilarious, and I loved getting to see more of Callum’s side of the story.

I would totally recommend this book! It is a fun, clean romcom that is the perfect blend of serious and hilarious moments 🙂
