I thought I’d fallen in love with the couple from the first book—but this couple? I don’t think I’m capable of falling in love with any couple after them! Indy is such a perfect character—hilarious and unbelievably sweet, to the point that she made me want to be her friend. Ryan is the kind of hero I wish every single woman could have. An insanely romantic book—deeply moving, emotional, and uplifting. I truly loved the audiobook experience; the narrators did an amazing job and brought the characters to life in my ears. Liz Tomforde, you did a phenomenal job—and you’ve completely ruined my standards after this book.

A book that pulls you in from the first page and makes you not want it to end. The characters feel real and relatable, with great banter, strong chemistry, and plenty of emotional depth. I loved the focus on self-love and positive body image, which added something meaningful without feeling heavy. The writing flows easily, the pacing is spot on, and the intimate scenes feel natural and well placed. A fun, warm, and highly recommended read. 💕📖

Huge thank you to Tia Louise and Ear Candy PR for the early audio copy! It was my first dive into the Bradford world and I had such an amazing time with them. 🙏🏻 💘

I think I'm in love with a hockey player(again)!!!💘💘💘

Well, I can officially add @authortialouise to my list of new authors that I LOVE & ADORE🎧🤎 I can't believe this is the first time I’m trying her books! Why did I wait so long?! I fell in love so fast and couldn't stop the audio, I finished it in one day (who needs sleeping hours when Owen "Cage" Stone is in your ear🤌🏻) and I smiled so hard my cheeks hurt!

Liam Dicosimo and Willa Jaymes are like angels in my ears! They were PERFECT! 🤌🏻🤌🏻🤌🏻 Liam’s voice is so deep and gravelly, he IS the ultimate protective alpha, and Willa was so amazing as Gina. Their chemistry in duet narration was absolute fire! 🤌🏻💘

I loved the chemistry between Gina and Owen. He’s a widower, a single dad, and a hockey player who’s just trying to find his place, and she’s this brilliant dog groomer/STEM girl who just blows his mind. The way their dogs (Ladybird is a legend! 🐶) basically forced them together was freaking hilarious! 🤣 And can we talk about the one-bed motel scene? Like girl... give me a break, Owen Stone is everything! 🥵

The best part? NO THIRD ACT BREAKUP! 🤌🏻 It was just pure, feel-good, spicy vibes from start to finish.

If you love those tropes & micro tropes, this is your next book: 🐾 Opposites Attract 🏒 Pro Hockey Player (Owen "Cage" Stone!) 🐾 Single Dad / Widower 🏒 Temporarily Roommates 🐾 Forced Proximity (Only One Bed! 🥵) 🏒 Protective MMC 🐾 Grumpy x Sunshine 🏒 Dog Lover / Champion Groomer 🐩 🐾 No Third-Act Breakup 🤌🏻 🏒 Found Family 🐾 Age Gap (28/35)

Campbell and Durban have this electric, soul-deep chemistry that honestly just jumped out of my headphones. I was totally captivated by the way they balanced the tender, healing moments with that undeniable, simmering heat. 🔥 It’s the kind of story that makes you want to pack your bags and move to a Montana ranch immediately! 🥺

The narration by Marissa Clay and Will Speare was next level. They breathed so much life into Campbell and Durban; you could practically feel the tension and the love in every word. Will Speare’s cowboy drawl is absolutely everything! 🎤🎧

A total must-listen for anyone who loves heart-melting romance and a rugged hero you'll wish was yours! 🙌🥃

The chemistry between Winnie and Soren was pure perfection. I lived for the banter and watching Soren’s icy walls absolutely melt for Winnie! It was heart-meltingly sweet but also had that perfect amount of heat. 🥵🤌🏻

Jason Clarke and Grace Grant were absolute perfection in the ears. They brought so much life and emotion to the character! I couldn’t stop listening!

Highly recommend if you need a festive listen that hits all the right spots! 🎄🙌

Preorder this Brother’s Best Friend hockey romance now, listen December 9:

https://amzn.to/4rkdFmp

I went in thinking “another hockey romance with single-mom vibes”… and came out completely in love with it. 🤌🏻💜 This book is laugh-out-loud hilarious, heart-melting tender, and surprisingly deep all at the same time..

What I loved most – the relationships: ♡ Emmy & Jace – real, messy, loving single-mom/teen-son dynamic that never feels forced. ♡ Emmy & Beckett – slow-burn perfection. He sees her exhaustion, her strength, her walls… and just quietly stands there until she’s ready to let him in. The way he loves her and Jace? I was a puddle. ♡ Found family everywhere – from the moms to the team to Beckett’s own family. It’s handled with so much care and zero sugar-coating.

🎧 The audio is absolute fire! 🔥🤌🏻 Vanessa Moyen gives Emmy the perfect mix of exhausted-mom energy and sharp wit – you feel every eye-roll and every crack in her voice. Lee Samuels as Becket… that man is doing God's work! His gravelly tenderness in the quiet moments? Chef’s kiss. Duet narration makes every text message and late-night conversation feel deliciously real.

Spice: solid 3.5~4 🌶️ – hot, emotional, and very “he falls first and worships her” coded. 🤌🏻

Bottom line: If you love hockey romance that’s actually about healing, motherhood, friendship, and a hero who shows up exactly when you need him… grab this immediately. It’s funny, it’s steamy, it’s heartfelt, and it will hug your soul.

✨ A huge thank you to Danika Bloom and Home Cooked Books Promotion for the early audio copy in exchange for honest review! ✨

If you’re looking for that book that instantly transports you into the Christmas spirit, you need to pick up Merry with the Millionaire. Danika Bloom has created a genuinely charming and feel-good story that is both funny and deeply satisfying.

The core of the book is a Second Chance Romance centered on Paige and Josh, who broke up a year ago under complicated circumstances. Now, they are forced back together for the holidays, thanks to the world’s most determined and well-meaning grandmother, Nana.

Why It Works?

What really makes this book special is the way the author handles the second chance trope. It doesn't rely on overly dramatic misunderstandings; instead, the conflict comes from real, relatable baggage. The forced proximity is fantastic, and the banter between Paige and Josh is genuinely witty, making their chemistry believable and easy to root for. Josh, the millionaire, is surprisingly down-to-earth, and Paige is independent and strong, a perfect pairing. and they're actually communicating!!! love this!

This book truly excels as a classic romantic comedy: the pacing is quick, the family dynamics are humorous, and the Christmas setting adds a layer of cozy magic that feels just right for the season.

🎧 A Must-Listen Experience

For anyone who loves audiobooks, this is a phenomenal listen. Laura Jennings and Chip Hurley are excellent narrators. They manage to bring so much depth and warmth to the characters, especially in the funny dialogue moments. Listening to this one really enhances the experience, almost turning it into a lighthearted Christmas movie.

In Short: This is a sweet, satisfying, and funny holiday romance. It’s perfect if you need a low-angst, guaranteed Happily Ever After that feels like a big, warm hug. Highly recommend adding it to your holiday reading list!

✨ A huge thank you to L. B. Dunbar and Home Cooked Books Promotion for the early audio copy in exchange for honest review! ✨

I have to confess: This was my first time trying a book by L.B. Dunbar, and I was so pleasantly surprised! Seriously, where has she been all my life?! I will absolutely be looking for more of her books because I was left with the biggest, warmest 'taste of more' in my soul!

A cute, snowy small town in Maine (Hideaway Harbor!), a sweet single mom (Lumi Snowe, the postmistress!), and a total SILVER FOX (Astan “Saint” Santos, the toy mogul!) who crashes his car right into their lives! It's pure, uncut Forced Proximity goodness!

Saint is the definition of a walking green flag! He's kind, he's thoughtful, he pushes Lumi to chase her huge dreams, and OH MY GOD, he is so HOT. This man is a gift wrapped in gray hair and pure desire. This book proves that love after 40 is the sexiest, most heartwarming thing in the universe! It’s all the cozy feels of a Hallmark movie but with MAJOR R-RATED spice! 🌶️🔥

🎧 The Audio is PURE Comfort! You MUST listen to this one under a blanket with hot chocolate! 🎤

Erin Mallon is perfection; her voice is like a warm hug! The dual narration flows beautifully and the narrators bring incredible emotional depth to Lumi and Saint's chemistry. It's the kind of performance that just makes you feel the small-town magic and the overwhelming love! A truly immersive listen!

This book made me smile so hard my cheeks hurt! It’s fun, it’s spicy, and it gives you the absolute best kind of butterflies. Drop your current book and start this one! Tell me what you thought in the comments! 💝
