If you remember the 90s, there was a Sandra Bullock film called While you Were Sleeping and Sophie Jordan’s latest is a Regency era nod to that romcom classic. Poppy works in a flower shop and takes care of her teen sister, who is basically trapped in their flat all day. Through her work in […]

Ex Libris Romance (73)
One for the Rogue is a direct companion to The Virgin and the Viscount and we get to see what happened as a result of the family fallout in the previous book. Beau wants nothing to do with his new title to the point where he will do just about anything to avoid having to […]
Ex Libris Romance (72)
Elle and Archer have been background characters since book one, but I knew that their story was going to be emotional and steamy. Luckily, I was right! Their shared history is really interesting and they each carried their own guilt and shame, which kept them apart despite their attraction to each other. Thy both have […]
Ex Libris Romance (71)
As with all of Tessa Dare’s books, Do You Want to Start a Scandal was lovely and so much fun. Spindle Cove is one of my favorite fictional settings of all time and I am so glad that we get to visit it again. Charlotte is determined to solve the mystery of the amorous couple […]
Ex Libris Romance (70)
I have read most, if not all, in this series so I was looking forward to finally reading about the Highlander who is all but demonized in the other books. His ancestral connection to the English and his English title set him apart from the other lairds, but of course there is more to […]
Ex Libris Romance (69)
I love the uptight guy/free spirit girl trope, as long as the girl doesn’t tun into a one-dimensional MPDG. Luckily, that was not the case in this book. Of course, we also have one of my other favorite tropes – surprise baby! India is a free spirit, but as the book progresses, you realize that […]
Ex Libris Romance (68)
Let the Holiday Romance Season begin! What better way to start than with one of my very favorite contemporary romance authors, Jill Shalvis! There was a lot lot like about The Trouble with Mistletoe, and I think for me it started with Willa. I loved that she owned a pet grooming business and I also […]
Ex Libris Romance (67)
In Too Hot To Handle we were introduced to the Clarkson family and their weird, dysfunctional road trip to fulfill their mother’s last wish. In Too Wild To Tame, the story continues as we get to know Aaron, the slick political consultant who has fallen from favor and is trying to get his career on […]
Ex Libris Romance (66)
This was absolutely fantastic! Instead of a scandal involving nudes released on social media or someone’s cloud being hacked, Sarah MacLean basically took the 19th century equivalent – a nude portrait that was only supposed to be for private viewing – and made it the source of the scandal that brings her guardian out of […]
Ex Libris Romance (65)
I approached this one with some trepidation because of the title, but it ended up being kind of interesting. First, the heroine is more interested in social justice for girls who are essentially trapped in brothels and has made it her life’s work to rescue them. She and Bryson have a history, which is […]
