Saved By the Grumpy Bigfoot by Jamie K. Schmidt
- Plot- or character-driven? Character
- Loveable characters? Yes
5.0
This was my first book by Jamie K. Schmidt and I really enjoyed the story, characters, and world the book took place in. I haven't read many Bigfoot romances before but really liked this story and thought Kael was a sweet character that I enjoyed getting to know as well seeing his relationship with Maya. His mother Asha was a great character as well and I was happy with how the story ended. I plan to look into reading more by this author and have already added an upcoming book to my TBR list.

Review is for Bound to the Dragon by Robin O'Connor
I really enjoyed this story and the characters Rosy and Char. Rosy was a nymph and I haven't read many books with nymphs in them so that was fun and Char was a Dragon shifter. I enjoyed seeing how they grew closer as they fixed Rosy's inherited farm up while she was learning about her heritage and abilities. This is the first paranormal romance I have read from this author since I usually read their science fiction romances and I enjoyed this book just as much as all their others I have read so far. I look forward to reading more from this author in the future and maybe even some of this books other stories.

I enjoyed getting to read about Zachary & Kelsey in this newest addition to the Rosewood Ridge Rescue Series of instalove standalone stories set in Rosewood Ridge, Tennessee. It was nice getting to read Kelsey's story after seeing her be briefly mentioned in the previous book and I look forward to reading more from this series and author in the future.

This was my first book by Cora Lee as well as from this series. I really enjoyed all the characters in this story and how the relationship between Sylvie Devereaux and Kit Mathison developed throughout the story. Sylvie's pet goose Moses was a fun side character as well and I enjoyed seeing him interact with both Sylvie and Kit. I also added Kissing by the Mistletoe to my TBR list to read more about Kit, his brother, and his friend/sister-in-law.

This was another fun book by Bella Blair as well as another entertaining addition to the My Monster, My Protector Series of standalone books each written by a different author.

Whisked Away by the Alien by Julie K. Cohen, Julie K. Cohen
5.0
This was a really great book and I enjoyed the change of having a Hanukkah Alien Holiday Romance rather than a Christmas Alien Holiday Romance. All the characters were fun to get to know and it was entertaining seeing the Yiddish thrown in to further confuse Sten when he wasn't sure what something meant. I plan to read more by this author in the future and hope more is written for this series.

A Kiss of Frost by Honey Phillips

5.0
This is the third book in the Horned Holidays series and I loved it just as much as the first two. All the characters are so well written and Jacks drone is another fun character that has a mind of it's own just like in the first two books although in this case it forms a strong protective bond with him. I have loved this series so far and look forward to reading more by this author.

I really enjoyed reading about Nicholsarian and Jenna's story and the relationship that developed between Nicholsarian and her daughter Lottie was cute as well. This was another fun addition to the Horned Holidays series and I loved the epilogue at the end with Nicholsarian and Krampasarian introducing their new families and mending their rivalry. I look forward to reading the next book in this series.
