Latest Romance Books Added To My Wish List | TTT

Feb 8, 2022

This week I’m sharing the latest romance book I’ve added to my wishlist. Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and Bookish and is hosted by The Artsy Reader Girl. 

Romances are mostly what I read these days. So I thought for the love freebie this week I would share the latest books that I have added to my wish list. My list today is a range of different romances. From different subgenres to when they come out. Some of the books haven’t been published yet and some I haven’t had the chance to pick up.

They do have one thing in common though, I can’t wait to read them. Let’s hope that I can get to them soon. As always these are in no order, these are the recently added romances to my wish list.

Omega’s Obsession (Heat Haven Omegaverse #2) by Sarah Blue | Sweet Mercy (Dirty Empire #1) by Nina West and K.A. Tucker | Wolf Bonds (Rocky Mountain Pack #1) by Lucia Ashta | Noc City (Noc City #1) by Penn Cassidy.

All Packed Up (Sweet Omegaverse #7) by Lana Kole | Faith & the Dead End Devils (Sweet Omegaverse #8) by Kathryn Moon | Twisted Love (Twisted #1) by Ana Huang  | Wicked Beauty (Dark Olympus #3) by Katee Robert.

Love on the Brain (Love Hypothesis #2) by Ali Hazelwood | Honey Trap (The Guild #1) by Tate James

And there we go. Those are the latest romance books I’ve added to my tbr. What romance books are you looking forward to reading soon? Have you read any on my list? What did you post this week? Let’s Chat!

Books with Character Names In the Title | TTT

Feb 1, 2022

This week I’m sharing books with character names in the title. Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and Bookish and is hosted by The Artsy Reader Girl. 

This was such a fun topic to do and was one that made me really think. Sometimes I already know what I am adding to the list. But this week I had to go through all the books I’ve read and pick which ones I wanted to add to my list. These aren’t necessarily all 5-star books. But they are books that I have really enjoyed reading. 

Anyway, let’s get into it. Here are some of the books that I have love with character names in the title. As always these are in no order. 

War (The Four Horsemen #2) by Laura Thalassa | Lola & the Millionaires: Part One (Sweet Omegaverse #2) by Kathryn Moon | Tin (Faeries of Oz #1) by Candace Robinson and Amber R. Duell | Kiss of Snow (Psy-Changeling #10) by Nalini Singh.

Lore by Alexandra Bracken | Halo (Fallen Angel #1) by Ella Frank and Brooke Blaine  | Cinder (The Lunar Chronicles #1) by Marissa Meyer | Rafe: A Buff Male Nanny (Loose Ends #1) by Rebekah Weatherspoon.

Chasing Cassandra (The Ravenels #6) by Lisa Kleypas | The Guinevere Deception (Camelot Rising #1) by Kiersten White. 

And there we go! Those are some of the books that I have loved with character names in the title. What books made it onto your list? Have you read any that made it on to mine? Let’s chat! 

New-to-Me Authors I Want To Read in 2022

New-to-Me Authors I Want To Read in 2022

Jan 25, 2022

This week I’m sharing new to me authors that I want to read in 2022. Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and Bookish and is hosted by The Artsy Reader Girl. 

Okay, so I had to change this weeks topic slightly, just because I shared my new-to-me authors I read in 2021 a few weeks ago. So today I’m sharing new-to-me authors that I want to read in 2022. Some of these authors, I already have their books on my tbr. Some I haven’t had the chance to pick up their books yet. But I really want to. 

There are a mix of romance authors and some young adult authors. Some new books and some books that have been on my tbr for a while and I haven’t read yet. As always these are in no order. 

F.T. Lukens: I didn’t realise how many books this author has written until recently, but In Deeper Waters has been on my tbr for a little while now, so I am really excited to pick it up. There is a good chance that I have already read it before this post gets published, but I am super excited for their next book as well. 

Elise Kova: Now I don’t know which of Elise’s books I’m going to read first. I have A Deal with the Elf King and the first few books of the Air Awakens series, so I have a lot of options. Ely my best friend has really enjoyed Elise’s books so that makes me super excited. 

Xiran Jay Zhao: I have been putting off reading Iron Widow for a little while now, but I need to get on it. I think there is a high chance I am going to love it and I just can’t wait. 

Kel Carpenter: Is an author that I actually have quite a few books of now and I haven’t read any of them. It’s my mission to read at least 1 book in the next two months. Don’t know which one I’m going to pick up first, but I will. I think it’s either going to be Fortune Favors the Cruel or Dark Horse by Kel Carpenter and Aurelia Jane. 

Ana Huang: Twisted Love and Twisted Games have caught my eye so many damn times and I haven’t picked them up yet. But gosh will I. I’ve said this before, I’m not a massive fan of contemporary romances without a sub-genre. However, I have just heard some fantastic things about this series. 

Harley Laroux: Is another author that has caught my eye through a few of their books mainly Her Soul to Take and The Dare. But I think I’m going to play it sorta safe and start with Her Soul To Take. It just sounds dark and creepy, but still my thing. 

Lana Pecherczyk: I only discovered Lana late last yet but I haven’t read any books by them yet. I got the first book in the Fae Guardians series, so I think I am going to start with that. But all their books sounds pretty amazing too. So if I like this series I feel like I might binge them all. 

Olivia Wildenstein: I haven’t read a young adult/new adult fantasy in a while and I think this one is going to be fantastic. It sounds like a book I would have adored a few years ago. And I’m starting to get back into paranormal/fantasy. 

Danielle L. Jensen: This is another author that I found about last year, but haven’t read it. I really want to start reading more and more fantasy romance and this seems like a great way to go. I have heard some great things about it and I can’t wait to see it for myself. 

Raven Kennedy: It’s no surprise this is another author that I have found via tiktok and I’m really excited I did. I love any type of retelling or a book based on myths and this author has grabbed me right away with Gild. I’m intrigued and excited. 

And there we go for this weeks Top Ten Tuesday. Those are new-to-me authors that I cannot wait to read in 2022. Have you read any books from these authors? Are you planning to? Let’s Chat!

I have a love-hate relationship with this series. I have a love-hate relationship with this series. But I ended up really enjoying this one. It’s best friends to fake dating to-lovers. It’s always been you, bad-boy/good-girl, and I loved that. While Save Your Breath has quite a few tropes, it really leads itself to it, and it works. 

Aleks and Mia have known each other for years now. Since they were teenagers, that angst has been building up this whole time. And you can tell right from the get-go, it’s fantastic. I even wanted more of it, because I love pain. When Aleks went to live with Mia’s family as a teenager, sparks flew, but for many reasons, they both put their feelings aside. And well, now they are not only going to be fake-dating, but they might as well be engaged, too. 

I really enjoyed seeing how both Aleks and Mia both tried to hide how they were feeling throughout the whole ‘fake-dating’ situation, but anyone could see it. They know each other as no one else does. Aleks has a lot going on, and while I do think this was brushed over a little too much, Mia is his centre. Mia is a massive music star and is a female in the industry, so yeah, people don’t respect her. Obvsiouly because why couldn’t a female star be badass and write about the things that she has gone through? Aleks and Mia get each other, and that is very clear from the start; they are both just trying to squash everything. We get to see them slowly start to show how they feel, and well, one night it all explodes. 

Overall, I enjoyed this one a lot; it’s not my favourite of the series, but I had a great time reading it. I liked Aleks and Mia a lot as characeters and while I think the mental health aspect could have been explored a whole lot more, I can see why it wasn’t. The romance was slow and spicy, the angst was great, and the payoff for these two was what they needed.

Well February wasn’t the best reading month. I onl Well February wasn’t the best reading month. I only ended up reading 3 books in. 3 pretty fun books but one of my slowest readings months in a while. 

And I’m going to be honest here it’s because I’ve been constantly reading Heated Rivalry fanfics. 🤷‍♀️ I’m having the best time though. 

How was your reading in February? Any 5  star reads?
