I haven’t shared some mini reviews in quite some time, so I thought now would be a perfect time. What I have been reading so far this year is all over the place but it has been all indie romance. Which shouldn’t surprise anyone. And today I’m sharing my thoughts on three of the books that I have read so far this year. 

Overall I really liked all three of these books for different reasons, so let’s get into it. The books that I am sharing my thoughts on today are The Wrong Bride (The Windsors #1) by Catharina Maura, Where Good Girls Go To Die (Good Girls #1) by Holly Renee and Sticks and Stone by Grace McGinty. Let’s Go.

The Wrong Bride (The Windsors #1) by Catharina Maura.

This book has been popping up all over my social media lately and the next thing I knew I was reading it and I am so glad that I did.

It’s a romance that is messy and angsty but works oh so well. When Raven’s sister doesn’t show up for her wedding, Raven has no choice and takes her sister’s place. One major issue, Raven has always loved Ares.

The Wrong Bride is full of so many ups and downs. not only between Raven and Ares but family situations. If you don’t like drama then this book may not be for you.

However, there are also many sweet parts, sexy parts and parts where you don’t want to stop reading. it’s one of those books that you are either going to love or hate.

 

Where Good Girls Go To Die (Good Girls #1) by Holly Renee.

This second-chance romance is sexy and gritty. Where Good Girls Go to Die follows Parker and Olivia as they are bought together again after years of being apart.

It’s angsty to the tea and that is why I loved it so much. There is so much history between the pair and the attraction is there even after all this time.

Holly Renee knows how to create characters that are real and flawed, but you cannot but love.

If you are looking for a steamy, second-chance romance that is messy then this is the book for you

Sticks and Stone by Grace McGinty.

Grace McGinty has been on my tbr for a while now but I’ve never known which book to pick up. But her newest release caught my eye right away. A why choose ice hockey romance? Umm yes, please!

And while I didn’t love it, I still ended up really enjoying it. It’s complicated, heartwarming and sexy all at the same time. 

Nova has been through some shit, and when life throws even more at her she knows she needs to stand up and take it in full force. But she isn’t doing it alone, now that River, Devan and Rigby are in her life. 

Overall, the writing was okay, there were a few things that didn’t stand out to me. But I did have a fantastic time reading it and looking forward to reading more books from Grace McGinty soon. 

 

And there we go. Those are some mini indie romance reviews. I enjoyed each of these books or different reasons and I am so excited to read more from each author. Have you read any of these books? What did you think of them? Let’s chat!
