I’m so glad STOLEN MIDNIGHTS was a Book of the Month pick. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have been on my radar. I thoroughly enjoyed this story. I loved the setting, characters, and magic system. Wren and Damien had amazing banter, chemistry, and sexual tension. I’m so anxious to read the sequel after that ending and I can only hope this duology will turn out the way I want it to.

LIKE CATS AND DOGS was a cute story. I loved the concept and setting. Lauren irritated me a bit, though. I thought she was a little bit too whiny and not very empathetic to Caleb’s relationship hangups. If he had been divorced longer than a year or two, then I would’ve agreed with her.

I thought AN ACADEMIC AFFAIR was a fun enemies-to-lovers and marriage of convenience romance. I liked both Sadie and Jonah. I thought it was a good look at how trauma and love can blind us to reality. I’m glad that was all sorted out in the end, though. I also liked another look at academia from a romantic POV. It’s cool that these types of stories are becoming more available.

I adored OUR PERFECT STORM. Friends-to-lovers is one of my most favorite tropes and Fortune executed this story so well. I loved both Frankie and George so much. I loved that Fortune wanted to write a what-if-Jo-and-Laurie-got-together-like-they-should’ve story. I also loved the overall message surrounding conservation and combating climate change.
