Must read book one, The Moon & His Tides before reading this book!!
5/5 Star 3/5 Spice
Giana did the damn thing. This book was highly anticipated after she left us hanging with the ending from book one.
I will forever be a Seb fan. 10 years later after book one we see where Seb, Adam, and Savannah have left off. My opinion only Savannah can kick rocks & even with the ending of book two, my feelings still stand. I will never be a fan of hers, so I am very interested with how the direction of book three will go.
I absolutely adored the relationship between Seb, Adam & Linnea in this book. HOWEVER I need Seb to step up and start putting himself first.
Not quite as spicy as book one, however the spice was still HOT AF. I loved seeing Adam's growth in this book, and I truly do feel Linnea is exactly what he needs.
Loved the marriage of convenience aspect in this book as it really carried the plot & both of these characters really initially were getting something they both needed out of the contract.
I'm still sitting here staring at the wall a week later. My feelings are still incredibly hurt. Nothing else can describe how I feel.
Counting down the days until book three.

Another absolute amazing read by Ellie. ITropes: Small Town Pro Football Comeback Fake Dating Forced Proximity He Falls First Banter
4.5/5 Star 2.5/5 Spice
Another absolute amazing read by Ellie. If you love the fake dating trope this book is absolutely for you. Siena & Brooks were everything and more. This book had be laughing, swooning & sweating from some insanely hot spice.
Siena & Brooks literally are two strangers brought together by fate. Literally bumping into each other on the football field they have insane banter. When they both come to a mutually beneficial agreement to fake date they can't deny their chemistry. Loads of sexual tension, teasing & denying each other lead to the best build up when they finally get together.

If you love a book where not only the MMC Tropes: Mafia Billionaire Morally Grey Characters Forced Marriage Forced Proximity Slow Burn
4/5 star 2/5 Spice
If you love a book where not only the MMC is morally grey, but the FMC is as well, this is absolutely your read. I will preface by saying I do firmly feel you should the novella Untamed first (Aaron, Tristen, & Dom's story) its quick, high spice, but the ending is key in understanding the motives behind our FMC in this story.
We meet Aaron in Shattered Obsession & Shattered Hearts. He's all business, poised, and always in control. So when he witnesses something that leads to our FMC stalking him you start to see him slowly unravel. When the identity of our FMC is revealed & what family she is associated with it leads to the forced marriage from the head of the Mortelle family.
The push, the pull, the banter, then tension & the hate between these characters was absolute perfection. I simply couldn't put this book down and kept wanting more. The ending of this book, holy hell, now I'm craving all the answers for Tristen's story.

Anything J. Saman writes is just so incredible.
Loomis is the bad boy actor who Keegan has always had a crush on. When she goes through a breakup where her ex doesn't get the hint, she runs into Loomis who is hiding his large secret from the world...in the form of a baby who was left at his doorstep.
When Keegan gets injured sidelining her from her residency for 6 weeks she steps in to help out & then finds herself in a mutually beneficial situation of fake dating. They end up taking off to Key West from Boston for some privacy away from the cameras and tabloids and this time away makes them both question the sexual tension they are both experiencing for each other.
As usual the plot & story was phenomenal from J. Saman she has such a unique way of taking these tropes and adding fun twists to them all. However, FOR ME PERSONALLY I felt no actual chemistry between both these characters & I really felt then the spice was a forced thing between these two. I struggled to keep reading their story. ...more

Secret baby is such an underrated trope. Cali did so well with this one. AnTropes: Pro hockey ONS Secret Baby Slow Burn Forced Proximity
4 Star 2/5 Spice
Secret baby is such an underrated trope. Cali did so well with this one. Andi & Carson were perfect and they had insane chemistry right off the hop, but both only wanted one thing, to scratch the itch. They both wanted a no strings attached night, and that's what they get.
Only 6 years later Carson runs into Andi and her son Matteo. Only Matteo's age lines up with their ONS. When he asks Andi about it, there is no denying which leads to a paternity test proving he is, in fact, Matteo's dad.
When Andi finds herself in a situation needing a temporary living situation she moves into Carson's house. The close confines, and spending so much time with them has Carson questioning what he really wants with the mother of his child.
This book was just so sweet & it started out tension filled between these two. I really did love these two together & they grew into a family so naturally.

This book is SO HOT & it has cowboys. What more do you need??
Callie, Colt & Maverick had the MOST intense chemistry. I felt all their relationships equally, but in their own unique way. This read was a perfect balance of uniqueness, sweet & SPICY.
When Callie shows up at the rodeo circuit in search of closure with her childhood friends, she quickly discovers that the boys she left all those years ago aren't friends the way she knew them to be. It doesn't take long for her to break their walls down & slowly mend the grudges they have. After all the tension builds between these two men, the confrontation is explosive & HOT. I literally was sweating. I could not put this one down.

Book #4 in the Vancouver Storm series and it is now, hands down, my favorite read in this series.
Dr Georgia Greene isOBSESSED with Georgia & Alexei.
Book #4 in the Vancouver Storm series and it is now, hands down, my favorite read in this series.
Dr Georgia Greene is more than meets the eye and when our "older" and broody hockey player Alexei meets her for the first time he assumes he knows everything about her, and in the worst way. When they find themselves both in a situation requiring marriage as a solution. When they come to an agreement and enter a marriage of convince they start discove3ring sides of each they didn't know exist. The banter, the spice, the hidden love languages of this man.
I cant even describe the perfection that all of it is, with the perfect balance wrapped into one steamy, tension filled story. ...more

I absolutely loved Hadley & Ace. This storTropes: Small Town Marriage of Convenience Best friend's brother Age Gap Forced Proximity 'Who did this to you'
I absolutely loved Hadley & Ace. This story was such a fun read and it truly highlighted the fact that I am a Hadley STAN FOR LIFE. You want a sassy/feisty FMC read this book. Correction this entire series. Like she might be my all time favorite FMC. Victoria has a way of taking the plot and adding twists that you don't see coming, and the ending of this book was exactly that.
The tension in this one is sizzling. Like there were moments i caught myself holding me breath, then in the next chapter literal screaming at the characters.
My reason for the 4 star versus 5 was definitely not the author & story which leads me to say I will be rereading this book when the audio comes out...BUT I got this as an advance read and personally this book was spoiled for me many times over do to TT, Instagram, and even reading updates on here like weeks even before the release day, so it kind of made it almost forced for me to read if that makes sense. Understand I absolutely still 1000% recommend this book
