Lovebug (The National History Series Book 2) by Erin Mallon. Narrated by Erin Mallon Romantic Comedy. Second in a related series, but can totally stand alone. Last year’s Flirtasaurus by Erin Mallon was one of my favorite books of 2020. I couldn’t wait for Lovebug and I feel so bad that I didn’t review it before now, because if possible,… Read More

Still Standing (Wild West MC #1) by Kristen Ashley 1st in a new Contemporary Romance MC series. Stands alone. I haven’t been able to read a book since the beginning of December.

In a Holidaze by Christina Lauren Standalone Holiday Contemporary Romance I love Holiday books, and I always enjoy Christina Lauren. In a Holidaze was no exception.

Dream Chaser (Dream Team 2) by Kristen Ashley Contemporary Romance. Can stand alone, but better if you read the first in the series, Dream Maker.

One Time Only by Lauren Blakely Narrated by Jacob Morgan and Teddy Hamilton Standalone male/male Romance. Prequel is available.

Thanks for Last Night (The Guys Who Got Away Book 3) by Lauren Blakely If all I listened to was Lauren Blakely books, I’d be OK with that.
