Totally forgot to write a review for this so here we are weeks later…

OBSESSED. As per usual with Sarah’s books. This is definitely my fave Cupid book of the series & what an ending!!! Sarah just has a way to make things so god damn funny and relatable even when it’s in a fantasy world. And the spice was of course SPICING🥵🔥

Enjoyed the story, the plot & the characters. Just could have been like 100 pages shorter. Was enjoying the plot then there was like 5 chapters of smut for no reason 😂

I loved this so much! New to me author and will be reading her other works!

Holly & Kai were everything. Loathing to lovers at its FINEST but they’re neighbors and his little brother loves her? Hell yes. These 2 went through hell to get their happy endings and it was perfection. Really recommend this if you want a cute holiday read with some good banter!

Absolute perfection. This was so sweet & precious. Of course the spice was fantastic. I could have read about these 2 and their kids for 200 more pages. Ivy going through the motions and taking the leap and realizing Klaus is her person I almost cried. I really loved this could not recommend more & it’s a novella!

Frosted Hearts by Salem Sinclair

3.5

Okay this was pretty funny. Lumi is a girl after my own heart & just wanting to get ducked down by a monster & surprise she gets 2! Good for her. You go glen coco!

Also the cover does not depict her correctly she is very much described as plus sized so if you want a spicy holiday monster book with a plus size FMC this is for you!
