Their bickering went on a bit too long, and her comments on the fire starting were starting to wound MY pride (and it wasn't even me, or a real person)!

✔️ Dual POVs (Ryan x Brianne) ✔️ Set in Tennessee somewhere ✔️ Open-door contemporary romance (4/5 🌶️) 💔 Why they can’t be together: They decided to start off with little barbs and never go over themselves ✔️ Tropes: Miscommunication; small town; military

In Bed with Mr. Wrong (Out of Uniform, #1)

Katee Robert

A sexy category romance from Entangled's Brazen imprint... The blind date from hell is about to get hotter… Brianne Nave is never doing her friends a favor again. When they begged her to go on a blind date, she didn’t expect someone so perfectly gorgeous. She’s a mousy librarian—totally not in this man’s league. And judging by his odd reaction when she opens the door, he knows it, too. Air Force Pararescuer Ryan Flannery avoids his hometown at all costs. He’s not thrilled about the date until he’s shocked silent by the prickly little librarian’s sweet curves and kissable lips…and her smart mouth. But then an argument leads to a kiss that spirals out of control. How can two people have so little chemistry outside the bedroom when they fit together so perfectly in it? When their friends strand them in a cabin to "work things out," Bri’s not sure whether to kill him or put the industrial-sized box of condoms they find to use. Bottom line—Ryan’s career military and hates the tiny town she loves. He’ll leave, just like everyone else in her life. And if she’s foolish enough to give him her heart, he’ll take it with him.

This was one of the "sweeter" (and less spicy) books I've read from Eve Dangerfield.

✔️ Dual POVs (William x Marley) ✔️ Set in Montana ✔️ Open-door contemporary romance (3.5/5 🌶️) 💔 Why they can’t be together: He's a tech bro that wants to fix things with money ✔️ Tropes: Instalust; I can fix him

Sweeter

Eve Dangerfield

What’s better than romance? How about cold hard cash… Marley Ellis doesn’t have time for love, she’s got an artistic empire to build and a sugar daddy to charm. At least she did, until a late night catfishing introduces her to insanely hot and very bored tech bro, Will. Will’s been treading water, searching for something to believe in. He’s sure Marley’s the answer, but convincing her that he’s 1) not a douche 2) a daddy she can believe in is going to be a challenge. Luckily, he’s bringing his A-game because the good life is sweet, but love is sweeter. Sweeter was originally written for the Read Me Romance podcast. This book contains BONUS CONTENT.

Love Notes & Lifelines (Single Dad Hotline #1)

Avery Maxwell

The job was simple. Always answer the phone—no exceptions—then solve the caller’s catastrophe as efficiently as possible. The rules were simpler. They contact you, not the other way around. Never give them your real name, number, or any personal information not required to help a newly single dad keep his head above water. And never, ever get involved with a caller. Simple, right? Becker Hayes was not who I was expecting to call during my shift with the Single Dad Hotline. He’s my boss’s boss. In the boardroom he’s rich, powerful, detached. In my calendar he’s the enigmatic one-time kiss I was never supposed to see again. But on the other end of the phone, he’s vulnerable and reeling from becoming guardian to his young nieces. I’m not thinking straight when I offer him a little help off the books. Not when my mother’s illness is winning the battle and I’d give anything for a distraction from the loneliness. So when the Single Dad Hotline blows up my life, what’s a girl to do but say yes to everything he’s offering?

Oof this was a hard one to finish. This is trying very hard to be literary fiction but is too obvious to achieve it. The third person makes this book incredibly hard to put yourself in the character's shoes.

Theo of Golden

Allen Levi

Questions linger about Theo, a pleasant but mysterious stranger, after his arrival in the southern city of Golden. Who is he, and why is he here? He arrives early one spring and by chance - or is it? - he visits a coffee shop where 92 framed pencil portraits are on display. Inspired, Theo sets out on a mission of purchasing all the portraits one at a time and quietly bestowing them on their 'rightful owners.' Stories are told; friendships are born; and lives are changed. Theo of Golden is a beautifully crafted story about the power of creative generosity, the importance of wonder to a purposeful life, and the far-reaching possibilities of anonymous kindness.
