After the FallGiana Darling
Not a fan

After the fall I did not love. I feel like this book I don't know if it was like really necessary. This one is book four and it is Cressida and King's second book and I just feel like it was kind of a filler book for the plot.

So, this was really hard to pick a favorite, but I'm going to go with All Roads Lead Here because of our grumpy Roads hero and I just really loved his son. I loved all the side characters in this book and the heroine she is trying to move on from a very long-term relationship that just ended and so she is also trying to overcome the death of her mother, which she still doesn't really have closure from cuz her mother's body was never found.

Block ShotKennedy Ryan
Not a fan

The one I'm choosing is one I haven't finished. I DNF'd it because of how emotional it was and I never came back to it and that is Block Shot. This one something like really emotional was happening that was keeping the characters apart and I was just I don't know why I put it down cuz I rarely put books down.

We have Broken Vow, which is a cowboy bodyguard grump sunshine romance where the hero is the sunshine and the heroine is the grump and she's a lawyer and it's amazing. They have to go and hide out on his family farm. I love this one because someone is trying to kill her, so he's her bodyguard.

But my least favorite is probably Continuum, which had the least amount of like spice and plot to it. I don't even really remember too much about the plot. I know she had blue hair and I think it was a second chance romance, but I just did not care about these characters or this plot.

Devil in DisguiseLisa Kleypas
Not a fan

My least favorite was hard to pick, but I think it's going to be Devil in Disguise, which is one of her newer books if not her newest because I was pretty bored with the romance and then it had kind of like a trope that really rubs me the wrong way. I don't know if it's a trope, but she I don't want to spoil anything. She was supposed to not be able to do something and came to terms with that and that was a big conflict in her ability to trust someone and like their relationship and then it happened at the end.

Forget Me NotQ.B. Tyler
Loved it

You know I love KB Tyler and you know I love Forget Me Not. It is amnesia. I've read this multiple times and tabbed this one too and our hero and heroine are on the verge of divorce.

Inked in LiesGiana Darling
Loved it

The first author is Gianna Darling and of course Ink and Lies is my absolute favorite. I've reread it, I've tabbed it, I've highlighted it. It's just it's it's amazing.

It Ends With UsColleen Hoover
Loved it

You guys should know my favorite book by Colleen Hoover is It Ends With Us. I read this as an arc when it came out and was absolutely gutted reading it, cried reading it. It is so hard and heart-wrenching to read.

Perfect WreckageCatherine Cowles
Not a fan

Unfortunately my least favorite is also in this series and that is Perfect Wreckage. I think the reason why I didn't love this one is because I had to listen to the entire audiobook in one sitting and I was not driving with the story and that made me hate it even more that I was listening to it in one sitting.

Reckless RefugeCatherine Cowles
Loved it

So the next one is going to be Catherine Cowles who I love and I have Reckless Refuge as my favorite. I just did a guide on her. I can link that down below if you want to and this one is so good.

Savage LoverSophie Lark
Not a fan

My least favorite is Savage Lover. This one was definitely the least mafia out of the whole series and I just didn't care about the romance. I was very bored and there was this heist randomly too that I didn't get and so I wasn't connected to these characters and I just didn't love this book, unfortunately.

My least favorite is The Coppersmith Farmhouse. I am not a fan of this series. I think I liked like one book in the series, the Jameson Valley series, but this book the hero was so domineering and alpha and not in a good way.

The KingmakerKennedy Ryan
Loved it

My favorite book by Kennedy Ryan is Kingmaker. This duet is so good and so angsty and it's like it's always been you romance though I love like all of her romances.

The OutpostDevney Perry
Loved it

I think that Outpost is in the series and I gave that one five stars. Like it's really good, but the rest they're just okay.

I had to include a couple historicals on this list and the my favorite is The Earl Takes All. I almost said The Duke and the Lady in Red because I have given so many of Lorraine's books five stars. They're very angsty and pretty dark and I'm obsessed with that kind of historical romance, but The Earl Takes All is very angsty because it's about twins and the one twin is in love with his twin's wife, but he's not going to do anything about it.
