    [Book Review] The Growing Season By Diana Copland & Paramount Coffee Love Grows: Toasted Maple Nut

    Secrets of Neverwood is a three book trilogy with each book following one of three foster brothers: Calvin, Danny, and Devon. The brothers, who vaguely remember and feel no brotherly love towards each other, come back to their old home when their foster mother Audrey dies, leaving her run-down family home, once a grand Victorian estate, to the three.

    [Book Review] Maybe This Time By A.M. Arthur & Open Eye Café Ethiopia Yirgacheffe Coffee

    Maybe This Time was a quick read for me and I was surprised upon finishing it to realize it’s a full length novel and not a novella. I just devoured it in one sitting, stuck in the angst-ridden tension of Ezra’s and Donner’s unfolding relationship. To say Ezra and Donner have not had it easy in life is an understatement. Both men come from traumatizing backgrounds with horrible parents (to say the least). Both have loved and lost the person they thought was their forever (Ezra’s ex pretty much abandoned him after a move to a new city and Donner’s partner of six years was killed in a senseless act…

    [Book Review] Stranger On The Shore By Josh Lanyon & Starbucks Gold Coast Blend

    Stranger On The Shore is first and foremost a mystery, but the romance unfolding within feels anything but secondary, instead both aspects blend seamlessly together in this intriguing and compelling read.

    [Book Review] The Lost Year By Libby Drew & Marley Coffee Simmer Down

    Devon McCade has been able to turn his inability, and unwillingness, to emotionally connect to others into a career as a photojournalist, where he can be safe from emotional attachment, protected as he is by the other side of the photo lens – or so he tells himself.

    [Book Review] Sharp Love By Ava March & Groundwork Coffee Lucky Jack

    Oh, how I do love a good romance. Sharp Love is a historical, Regency Era friends-to-lover romance that simply knocked my socks off. With the combination of friendship, love, and hot intimacy – I simply couldn’t but this one down and read it all in one sitting (and into the wee hours of the morning).
