What I've been reading lately...
58
items In recent years I've rediscovered my love of books and reading and became a really avid reader, especially Romance and Fantasy, with a little sprinkle here and there of sci-fi, thrillers and anything that tickles my fancy.
This list will have all the books I've recently read and a little rating system and commentary because what didn't work for me might still be the perfect fit for you ;)

Where have I seen this trope before?
It doesn't matter because I love it. Forced proximity? Enemies to lovers? Sign me up!
Can be read as a single story even though it's technically part of a series
