The Hot Henry Effect by Lucy Chalice

Image
Clara and Henry met when they were still in university. She was a grad student and he was the guy everyone swoone over, but Clara.  Years later they lost touch, but Clara still thinks of him often. Then after a presentation from hell, there is Henry to the rescue. It turns out that they will be working together again, and they become close again. But this time, the sparks that fly between them are harder to ignore. The Hot Henry Effect is a spicy stem, workplace romance, that made me giggle, swoon, and laugh throughout the book. rating  ❤❤❤ ❤ cover  ❤❤❤ ❤ Goodreads Amazon number of pages:   309 published: May 16,2024 happy reading, Anie

A Duke of One's Own by Emma Orchard

Image
Lady Georgina is used to bending the rules of polite society. When a new friend invited her to a different kind of party she was eager to go, but little did she know it was a very different kind of party. She was beyond shocked when she found herself in the middle of a masked party, where participants were skimpily dressed and up to various activities for everyone to see. When a mysterious stranger offers to help, she accepts his help. Later that summer, at another party, she runs into her mysterious stranger again, who is a notorious rake and a Duke. I really like the premise of the story, but I felt it lacked chemistry between the MCs. rating  ❤❤❤ cover  ❤❤❤ Goodreads Amazon number of pages:   304 published: April 22,2024 happy reading, Anie

Hate Mail by Donna Marchetti

Image
Naomi and Luca grew up on opposite sides of the country. In the 5th grade, they became pen pals for a school assignment and never stopped writing to each other, until 2 years ago, when the letters stopped. But the letters weren't sweet or heartfelt, they were filled with hate and mean words, and they always tried to outdo each other in their insults. Slowly, over time, underneath all those jabs, a friendship developed. Naomi works at the TV station as a weathergirl. And then she received a new letter at work, from Luca, but without his new address. She and her friend go on a whole adventure to find him, flying across the country, and finding more about his life along the way. At the same time, the cute neighbour asks her out and they start to date. There is this insane chemistry between them, but her heart is torn between two guys. It's so so good! I couldn't put it down. It's funny, sweet and heartfelt all at the same time... and there are many steamy scenes too! :) Hi

The Kiss Quotient by Helen Hoang

Stella loves numbers math and economics. But she has a hard time understanding people. She has Asperger's, so dealing with people is not easy for her.  Her mother is pressuring her to get married. But she doesn't have all that much experience in the dating department, so she decides to hire an escort, to practice all that she has to know to have a successful dating experience. Michael does the escorting once a week to help pay for his mother's medical bills. Her offer is too good to refuse. But being with her, makes him feel things too. The more time they spend together, the more it feels not like working but like being in love. It is a very steamy story of an unlikely match, that fits perfectly together.  It was very eye-opening to experience the world from Stella's perspective... Highly recommend it! rating❤❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ cover❤❤❤❤ ❤ Goodreads || Amazon happy reading, anie

The Love Hypothesis by Ali Hazelwood

Olive is a third-year PhD candidate. She doesn't believe that much in romance, but doesn't want to stand in the way of the friend's happiness. So she comes up with a fake relationship, so her friend will think that she moved on and go out with the guy she likes. The guy she has a fake relationship with is the young professor nobody likes because he can be very tough on everyone.  Every time they spend together, it feels like there is tension between them and the fake starts to feel all too real. It it isn't until the conference from hell, that it all goes wrong, and right at the same time. :) It's steamy, the characters have this intense will they won't the tension, that keeps me flipping pages, and it's all set in a highly competitive academy setting. It's so good! Opposite attract, workplace romance, that will keep you glued to the pages from start till the end.  rating❤❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ cover❤❤❤❤ ❤ Goodreads || Amazon happy reading, anie
