This got me back into reading after a years long break.
It was so easy to read, and I am obsessed with the writing. I was immediately hooked!!!
You can assume where the story is going to end up, but the journey getting there was so exciting.

This book was so stinking cute!!! Lucy Score is always a must read author for me.

Bad-boy in high school Jake, isn’t so much a rebel bad boy but really is a sweetheart made of gold. He has a doofy dog Homer, and is a tatted sexy track coach and history teacher.

Marley booked it out of her small town the minute she graduated and never turned back. Until, she lost her job and boyfriend and moved back in with her parents.

The two reconnect at their old stomping grounds, and flames rekindle.

This was such a sweet romance, but also a great story about learning to accept yourself while cutting yourself slack. No need to strive for perfection, you are perfect as you are.

Such a cute summer romance! Finished it in a day and a half.

I love how most of the plot took place during a game, which is super unique and a fun twist.

The Taylor swift references were cute too. Not too many - just the right amount.

Ahhh nothing like a marriage of convenience that turns into love.

Quiet Isaiah was always a mystery, reluctant to open up to his wife, but slowly but surely they came together.

The drama continues, while the gang tries to find out what really happened to Genevieve’s mother

A cheeky little in between book, about the Christmas holidays with both sets of parents, and a quick wedding!!!

I had no idea what to expect of this but I’m so pleasantly surprised!!!

Such drama, angst, and action.

I hesitate to say cute, but a cute mafia forced marriage romance.

Predictable? Yes.
Cheesy? Yes.
Easy read? Yes.
Did I enjoy it? For the most part.

We love an enemies to lovers story line. It was a quick easy read, but I wish the characters had more dimension to them. They were very stereotypical, but overall a good read.

Had some spice to it which I appreciated the heck out of.

Holy…. I had all the feelings with this one.

Super intense, always waiting to see what would happen next. My stomach was in knots (in a good way) trying to read as quick as I could.

He is the sunshine but he calls her sunshine. I CANNOT.

These characters were so friggin loveable. Like I honestly can’t say enough good things.

So beautifully written. So much love. So much joy. Sadness, but ugh. My heart.

Please read this.
