I LOVE to read romance books. Sometimes I can vibe with a romantasy book too. I am open to reading more genres but for now, romance hits all the right places🩷

    I’m not far in for this book and yet, I already know it beats the first book for me. Lucy Score did not waste any time in just getting the characters to become comfortable with each other. So far, so good :)

  • Kindle - Yay or Nay?

    For months I have been trying to figure out if I should get a kindle or not. It seems convenient, especially when I am travelling to work or uni. Saves me from dragging a paperback with me which is fine because I have a book sleeve but....you know. Is a kindle worth my money?

    Finally reading a romance book set in Australia was refreshing. As an Aussie romance writer myself, this was nice to read and reminded me of my own writing. Adam James is everything I thought he would be. I would like to find me a man like him, even though he does have two first names. The story of Clarissa and Adam, with the past and present merging, was enjoyable to read. I loved reading the flash backs of little Adam and Clarissa and following it all the way until they parted ways. It all flowed so nicely. Brooklyn Dean did great with this book and I cannot wait to go back to Moonshine when I get the next book.

    I am loving this book so far. This is some good Aussie romance! I’m just waiting for Adam to realise who Lissy actually is. Like come on, man, if you have loved her since childhood, you’d know, right?
