I’ve had a pretty good reading year this year; I’ve read/listened to well over 250 books and audiobooks, and the majority have fallen into the ‘good’ (B/B+) range with around a couple of dozen earning DIK status – which isn’t too shabby. So here, not in order of preference, is my Best of 2025 list…
I was overjoyed when I learned that Rachel Reid’s Heated Rivalry was going to be adapted into a six-part TV series. (I was less so when I found out that the international distribution deal doesn’t include the UK, but that’s a moan for another time!) Sports romance – especially hockey romance – is a huge…
I’ve had a pretty good year of reading all told – there have been a few, but not too many duds, and Goodreads tells me I’ve read/listened to just over 250 books this year, and that I’ve graded the majority of them 4 stars / B and above, which isn’t too shabby! I definitely curate…
November’s TBR Challenge prompt is “Once Upon a Time”, and Caz – flying solo this month – had fun with a bonkers fantasy romp in audio. What book did you knock off your TBR pile this month – and what did you think of it? Enquiring minds want to know! The Lightning-Struck Heart by TJ…

Caz found a very satisfying sci-fi thriller, and Lynn jumped into the backlist of a favorite romance suspense author who specializes in high-action plots. What’s…
September is traditionally a BIG month for new romance releases, and this September is certainly continuing that tradition with a bumper crop of new titles to get stuck into! As always, we love hearing which books YOU’RE most keen to read in the coming weeks – and just a reminder that while we do our…
Not That Complicated by Isabel Murray Thankfully, the prompts for the TBR Challenge are generally open to interpretation. Some months a book will attach itself to the prompt immediately in my mind, and other months, I waffle helplessly between titles, trying to work out which one is the best fit. This month was one of…
Opposites attracting has long been a staple of romantic novels, movies and television shows. It’s just one of those ideas that seems to capture the imagination. Maybe it’s a longing to see what it would be like to live a completely different life, or a fascination with other ways of seeing the world. At any…
Hopefully the advent of April will bring with it some more Spring-like weather – in my part of the world, at least! – but even if it doesn’t, it DOES bring lots of great books for your consideration! Below is just a small selection of the new books coming out in April – click on…
When the month’s TBR prompt is “baggage”, you know that you’ll be dealing with emotional stories. While Lynn’s pick is much lighter than Caz’s, both feature characters that need to deal with their pasts in order to have a future together. So, when you think of “baggage,” do you need a real tearjerker of a…
