This is the first book in this series. There is a good amount of backstory introduced so the first half of the book drags a bit. But the second part makes up for it! "Run little Mouse, run." I love the poetry bits of celestial beauty Zade spews rando...

Long read but it keeps you very engaged! The very spicy smut scenes start right away in this book, so definitely NOT a slow burn. I love all the taboo stereotypes this book breaks. Who wouldn't want three boyfriends? Her bed is definitely never cold....

Ugly Love
 
Diana Wolf profile picture
Even the cover screams beachside reading. Malibu never looked so dreamy, although it may have to do with the characters and their beautiful bodies. Even California fires couldn't snuff out this Love.
Malibu Rising

Fun read for the hockey puck bunny ladies.
Icebreaker

Thriller

Lisa Jewell is probably my favorite author right now. Her edge of the seat thrillers always hit for me.

I read this in like two days, this was so good! The woman she works for can't walk or talk... so how did she see her in the window and who is telling her son secrets not to tell? Oh Verity, you sure are full of all the wrong kinds of surprises 😮
Verity

Book 1 was so good, such a page turner. Book 2 was a fast read too, I love how the author switches perspectives in different parts of the book. I've heard Book 3 is harder to digest, I've yet to try.
The Housemaid - 3 book series
 
Diana Wolf profile picture
This started out a bit slow but once Ruby is back and not going anywhere, plenty starts to come out of the woodwork. A shocking conclusion to a tale of wrongfully misplaced trust. A little gossip never hurt anyone - or so they thought it wouldn't.
