Happy Wednesday, friends! I don’t know about you, but when a new season rolls around, I like to pick a new batch of books to dive into.
I don’t read much fiction while I write. I primarily read non-fiction until after I finish a book, which I just turned in the first draft to the second book in my Jeopardy Falls series—YAY!
So now I’m ready to binge some fiction before my revisions come back. It looks like I might get two weeks. Usually, it’s one, so I’m excited to have a little more time off to devour books.
I really love the new covers that are so popular for rom-com and contemporary romance. I think they look great for some spring reading.
I’m excited about each story and wanted to share them with you.
First up is Bethany Turner’s Brynn and Sebastian Hate Each Other.
Bethany says:
This slow-burn, low-spice/clean enemies-to-lovers rom-com is set in a small town full of quirky citizens and is packed with pop culture, witty banter, and a guaranteed Happily Ever After–provided they can resist the urge to throw each other off a Colorado mountainside first. After all, Brynn (you probably won’t like her at first) is desperately trying to save her career and Sebastian (who’s hiding from his own demons) really just wants to be left alone to sing karaoke in peace.
Mine kind of story!
Next up is Loyally Luke by Pepper Basham. It doesn’t release for a few more weeks, but I’ll be snatching it up right awry.
Sometimes love means embracing the good, the bad . . . and even the impossible.
I love Pepper’s witty, hilarious, and heartwarming stories.
Next is My Lucky Charm by Courtney Walsh.
A humiliating break-up leads to an impulsive New Year’s Kiss with a complete stranger.
What could possibly go wrong?
My Lucky Charm is a grumpy/sunshine, sweet hockey romance with all of the sizzle but none of the steam.
Reader Question:
What are you reading, and what are you looking forward to?
Have a blessed week,
Dani

I am feeling nostalgic and think that for May I will be reading classics from my childhood- The Secret Garden, Mandy, The Little Princess, Sarah Plain and Tall, with a few newbies thrown in.
Oh how fun! Enjoy!
Loyally, Luke is so much fun! I’m looking forward to My Lucky Charm. I read My Phony Valentine (connected to this one) and couldn’t stop smiling so I am hopeful this one is similar! Right now I’m reading Janine Rosche’s The Road Before Us and am really enjoying it. Who doesn’t love a good road trip? I’m most eagerly awaiting the release of Gabrielle Meyer’s next Timeless novel, For a Lifetime.
Great pics! I love a good road trip. Will have to check its out.
I’m looking forward to Loyally Luke as well! I feel like I’ve been doing a lot of heavy fiction reading lately and need some fun! I’m reading Courtney Walsh’s The Happy Life of Isadora Bentley right now.
Ohh fun. How is The Happy Life of Isadora Bentley? Looks great.
So far I’m really enjoying it!
I have already read Pepper and Courtney’s books; you will love them. Bethany’s is on my TBR list. Right now, I am reading one of Grace Hitchcock’s books, Miss Wylde in the White City. I am looking forward to Jen Turano’s next read, Meeting Her Match, but it is a few months out so I will patiently find other books to read until it releases. 😉
Awesome. I’m really looking forward to them. All great choices.
