Sarah MacLean’s “Heartbreaker”

I started reading romance during the pandemic, but somehow hadn’t cracked open a mass market bodice ripper until the Hell’s Belles series came along. Christina Lauren gushed about Bombshell, so I had to give it a try since they have the best recommendations. Sarah MacLean did not leave me disappointed. So, I was very excitedContinue reading “Sarah MacLean’s “Heartbreaker””

Helena Hunting’s “Starry-Eyed Love”

As we have previously established here on Literaryhypewoman, I don’t always pay attention when picking my next read. This is not really an exception, but it’s a different version of it for once. I picked up Starry-Eyed Love by Helena Hunting because the fine folks over at St. Martin’s Press sent me a digital copyContinue reading “Helena Hunting’s “Starry-Eyed Love””

Mazey Edding’s “A Brush With Love”

Full disclosure: when I first saw the cover of A Brush With Love on Edelweiss, I thought it was about painting. (Don’t judge me. It was a tiny picture that looked like paint and paintbrushes are a thing. It works, okayyy.) So, when my bookstagram buddy read group mentioned “Dental Dan”, I was very confusedContinue reading “Mazey Edding’s “A Brush With Love””

Tessa Bailey Catches Us “Hook, Line, & Sinker”

Elle Kennedy’s “Good Girl Complex”

Several customers at the bookstore have been looking for Elle Kennedy books, so when I realized she was the author of Good Girl Complex on my digital ARC shelf, I moved it up the priority list. I am glad I did. Good Girl Complex is a dual perspective romance following Cooper and Mackenzie’s stories. CooperContinue reading “Elle Kennedy’s “Good Girl Complex””

“So We Meet Again” by Suzanne Park

Warning: So We Meet Again by Suzanne Park will make you want bulgogi real bad. I haven’t stopped craving Korean food since I started this novel. So We Meet Again introduces us to Jessica Kim, right as she’s getting fired from her fancy banking job on Wall Street in New York City. She moves homeContinue reading ““So We Meet Again” by Suzanne Park”

“Cream and Punishment” From Susannah Nix

Guyssss…. This is a sequel but I read the first book first for once! Be proud of me in this accomplishment, okay? I know, I am ridiculous. I’m not sure why I didn’t write a review of My Cone and Only, but here we are, jumping into book two like y’all know I do. TheContinue reading ““Cream and Punishment” From Susannah Nix”

“An Heiress’s Guide to Deception and Desire” From Manda Collins

Guys! I realized a book was a sequel and read the first part first! You should be so proud! That being said, An Heiress’s Guide to Deception and Desire by Manda Collins is book two, picking up about a year after the events of A Lady’s Guide to Mischief and Mayhem, but I think itContinue reading ““An Heiress’s Guide to Deception and Desire” From Manda Collins”

“A Lady’s Guide to Mischief and Mayhem” From Manda Collins

Hi. My name is Stephanie and I love mischief. I also love mayhem. The title of this novel called to my obnoxious soul and I could not escape its grip.
