"A Soul to Keep" by Opal Reyne is a captivating Romantasy tale following Reia, the harbinger of bad omens, and Orpheius, the Duskwalker. Their evolving relationship, alongside intriguing world-building and balanced character development, made for an engaging read. While the pacing was slow initially, the plot was enjoyable and ended out nicely. I eagerly anticipate the next installment in the series.
"Anyone But Him" is a spicy enemies-to-lovers anthology with four captivating short stories. Each story showcases strong characters and compelling dynamics, offering moments of banter and spice. The anthology impresses with well-rounded plots and engaging relationships, earning a high overall rating.
"Little Bookshop of Murder" and "Once Upon a Seaside Murder" by Maggie Blackburn are engaging cozy mysteries that follow Summer, a Shakespearean scholar who inherits her mother's romance-themed bookshop after she passes from a heart attack. Summer comes across some threatening notes which makes her question if her mothers death was actually from natural causes. With a seaside setting and charming characters, these books offer unexpected twists and a captivating mystery.
