  • Book Recommendation | The Hunger Games

    I was so pumped to watch The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes, but my heart still lives with the original Hunger Games. One of the only adaptations that I loved the movie as much as the book, I actually watched it three times in theaters when it first came out – back in my crazy…

  • Book Recommendation | Little Haunting By the Sea

    ✅ Deadly Ghosts ✅ Scarred hero ✅ Secretive heroine Little Haunting by the Sea by Kate Johnson ticks all the boxes if you’re looking to fall headfirst into a fabulous gothic rom-com this autumn.

Princess Lira is a siren…

  • A Heartless Laird | Scottish Romance Recommendation

    Book recommendation! I recently read A Heartless Laird by Hildie McQueen and couldn’t put it down! I met Hildie at the Coastal Magic Convention back in February. She is the sweetest person, and since I love everything Scottish, I decided to dip into her book. Like Outlander by Diana Gabaldon and Kiss of the Highlander…

  • Magic Bites is Fabulous!

    Book recommendation! I’m currently reading Magic Bites by Ilona Andrews, and it’s FABULOUS! It published in 2007, and I don’t know how I missed this goodie because it has everything I love: a kick butt heroine who solves paranormal mysteries, a dangerous alpha hero who shifts into a were lion, and a delicious slow burn…
