She is very set on ever going back to her hometown again, but when she finds out that her mom has very little time to live, she leaves everything and goes back home. Plagued with guilt of leaving everyone and everything, she struggles to fit back in.  Right on her first night back, she runs into a person she desperately hoped to avoid, her first love and the guy she hurt the most.  The spark between them is very much alive, and the more time they spend together, the more it grows.  It's a very touching story of second chances and forgiveness, but I had the hardest time getting into it. rating ❤❤❤ cover ❤❤❤❤ Goodreads  ||  Amazon happy reading, anie

Fundamentals in Flirting by Lucy Chalice

This book is seriously the cutest! Hannah is not a people person. She also has trouble with having low self-esteem. But when she walks in on her boyfriend, she finds a bit of her inner strength and drops him on the spot. Since he was also her mentor, she lost her spot as a researcher and her relationship all in one go. Since then she has moved on, and back home, and works as a veterinarian in a small clinic. There is where her lack of people skills comes to bite her in the ass. :) After running into her old classmate and a crush, she decides to make him help her. They have a scorching hot chemistry from the get-go, but their issues are keeping them apart. The story can be a bit frustrating at parts because you just want them to be happy, but the ending makes up for it. :) It's cute and full of swoon-worthy moments. It's a slow-burn, sunshine/grump romance set in a small town, that you can't help but love. :) rating ❤❤❤❤❤ cover ❤❤❤❤ Goodreads  ||  Amazon happy reading, anie

Her twin found her happily ever after on a reality TV show. It is the wedding special and the whole family has to be there. Eva is not only her sister but also a wedding planner.  She is not looking forward to this wedding. For one thing West will be there, her best friend.

But they never got together, Eva is too scared to ruin their friendship.  The high-stakes wedding, where everything seems to go wrong is a perfect setting for them to take that next step. But life keeps getting in the way. It's swoony, and steamy and keeps you on your toes. And the villain in the end was totally unexpected, did not see that coming at all. :) It's the kind of book that sucks you right in. I loved the first third of the story and the ending, but in the middle, I got kind of sick of all the twists and turns and was just looking for the HAE. rating ❤❤❤ cover ❤❤❤❤❤ Goodreads Amazon happy reading, anie

It's the world after. There are very few survivors, most of the humans have turned into monsters. In an abandoned world, is where Hella lives. She has one friend and one huge secret. The world has been deserted, the few left are either monsters, or fighting them, but the line between the two is very thin. The pace is super fast and the vibe is perfect.

Written in the Stars by Helen Rolfe

I love to read romance books set in the Christmas time. It's the most magical time of the year, after all. :) But this one didn't hit the spot. It's not that something is wrong with the book, I just couldn't get into it. A case of it's not you, it's me, book edition. :) It has a lot going for it, friends to lovers, small-town romance, dual POV, sweet romance, and Christmas-time setting, of course. Bess and Glo have been friends for a long time. They both a very stressful jobs and on top of that their personal lives are not peach either. The romance slowly developed, as their friendship deepened. It's part of the series, but you can read it as a stand-alone, too. Lovely story, just not for me. rating ❤❤❤ cover ❤❤❤❤❤ Goodreads Amazon happy reading, anie
