We loved this one!

This book made me laugh from the very first chapter! Sometimes, writing grabs me from the beginning, and this absolutely happened here. Win’s dynamic with Sarah and Sarah’s husband is fun and silly, and I loved their banter and sibling vibes. Win is a very real character; she is someone who has had a rough time in relationships, and she’s a bit gun-shy, but she’s not cold. I think a lot of relationship-avoidant characters are written as emotionally unintelligent, but Win is the opposite. She’s funny, sweet and smart, but she needs to be open to relying on others and letting people help her. Everyone in her life, not just Bo, wants to support her, and Win is not good at accepting that. A big part of Win’s journey is healing from past trauma and letting the people who love her provide her with the help she needs.

Love Tessa Dare? Here’s an early one of her works!

Lady Amelia d’Orsay descends from a noble family – a noble family that has fallen into genteel poverty. She has had a couple of Seasons, but since she’s not a simpering miss, and her family isn’t wealthy, she’s pretty well on the shelf and almost resigned to being a spinster – almost. Amelia still dreams of a home and family of her own – she grew up in a happy family and is still close to her brothers. Her older brother is Laurent, the Earl of Beauvale, who has married a wealthy, if silly woman, and he’s slowly rebuilding the family fortunes. Her brother Hugh joined the army and was killed in action. Then there’s Amelia’s younger brother Jack. He is the proverbial wild child who spends all his time carousing. At a ball, Amelia discovers that Jack owes 400 pounds in gambling debts to Spencer Dumarque, the Duke of Moreland, and the family country home, Briarbank, has been let for the summer.

Spencer has only recently come to town and he is sending frissons through the belles of the ton. He was brought up in the wilds of Canada, and rumor has it, he is not quite civilized. Spencer’s habit is to come into a ball at midnight, pick out a young lady and dance with her, then escort her to supper and disappear. He’s known as the Midnight Duke.

Penny Reid’s works are just so joyful and this one is no exception. 

If, like me, you were introduced to Penny Reid’s romantic comedies through her Knitting in the City series, then you’ll be delighted to know that Bananapants, which features the next generation of the couples in those stories, hits all the same high notes. But it’s not all laughs, as there are some serious mental health conditions faced by the characters, and day to day struggles that ground the story even while hijinks ensue. The effect is a story that brought to me to tears and cheers, and reminded me of why I love Penny Reid’s writing.

Caz gave this one very high marks. 

I generally like second-chance romances; the idea of a couple facing up to and addressing the misunderstandings and misconceptions that led to the breakdown of their relationship and finding their way to a new, stronger and more mature one is what draws me in, and Ava Wilder does a spectacularly good job with this one. As in How to Fake it in Hollywood, the author explores the negative sides of fame and celebrity culture and the danger of falling for a co-star, showing that neither Shane nor Lilah was really prepared for the way their lives would change once Intangible became such a hit, and how Lilah, especially, hated the idea of their relationship becoming gossip fodder. The chemistry between Lilah and Shane is some of the most intense I’ve ever read, and there’s a palpable undercurrent of tension running throughout the book as we get to know them and how they see each other, and as they both realise that there’s still the potential for much more than a good working relationship between them.
