Synopsis:

A brand-new emotional, angsty romance from the USA Today and Wall Street Journal bestselling author of the All of Me Series.


When Callan Hunt arrived at Ryemont High senior year, I couldn’t have predicted the hot Irish football player would become my everything … and end up breaking my heart.


College and dreams of a career in interior design were my sole focus until my new neighbor bulldozed his way into my life.


Callan had ambitions too. He planned to leave Vermont after graduation to pursue his dream of playing for an English Premier League club.


We weren’t looking for love, but fate had other plans.


When Callan was scouted during our freshman year of college, I couldn’t have been prouder.


Until everything came crashing down in one crippling blow.


I was devastated, and it took years to recover.


After finally moving on from the heartache of my past, I now have a successful career and a billionaire CEO fiancé.


Then my first love reappears.


Callan says it’s time I learned the truth about that night.


He claims he’s never stopped loving me and vows to fight for me in a way he couldn’t before.


He seems determined to keep every promise he ever made me, but how is it possible after everything that’s happened?

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Never Stopped Loving You by Siobhan Davis absolutely took over my life. I’m not exaggerating. I couldn’t put this emotion-packed, super angsty, all-consuming romance down. It was EPIC. This book made me forget the world for a while, and I’m so thankful for that, Siobhan. I don’t think I’ll be forgetting Callan and Astrid’s story any time soon.

In Never Stopped Loving You, Siobhan spins a wicked web of love, lies, and redemption, taking Callan and Astrid on a catastrophic romantic journey toward a hard-earned HEA. This second-chance sports romance delves into regret, longing, heartbreak, and the kind of love that never truly dies. Callan and Astrid’s relationship is chronicled from their senior year of high school through adulthood, and watching their nuclear, once-in-a-lifetime connection unfold over the years is both breathtaking and devastating.

Siobhan doesn’t just pull on my heartstrings; she shredded them. This story wrecked me and then somehow put me back together again. It’s an epic journey of the heart and soul, and every single page hurt so good. I didn’t think it was possible to love one of Siobhan’s books more than Say I’m the One from the All of Me series, but Never Stopped Loving You stole my whole heart. Completely. Never Stopped Loving You is on my top reads of 2026 list.

Darkest Destiny by Pepper Winters Kindle Crack Review


Synopsis

For twenty years, Lucien Ashfall has been caged by the very men who profit from his blood.


He’s dangerous, uncontrollable, and deadly.


He’s also the only one carrying his bloodline and they need another.


Every six months, thirty girls are sent into his prison and tasked with one goal: Make him create an heir by any means necessary.


But everyone who goes in, never comes out.


Until Rook Snowdon is thrown into Cinderkeep by mistake.


She isn’t a seductress.


And she certainly isn’t there to save anyone.


In fact, she only has three goals in life:


One, hide her true identity for as long as possible.

Two, nap and self-medicate with wine.

Three (and most problematic) ignore the fact that stress is slowly killing her.


Lucien only has one goal: escape and burn everything to the ground.


Unfortunately, everyone has their secrets and these two have many.


They just don’t know it yet.


Because she might be the key to getting him free.


But if he gets out, it’s not the world that will burn.


It’s him.

Spoiler-free Review of Darkest Destiny

Darkest DestinyDarkest Destiny by Pepper Winters
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Darkest Destiny by Pepper Winters is the first book in the Darkest Destiny Trilogy, and as always, Pepper did not disappoint. Rook and Lucien’s dark, seductive story had me hooked from the very first page straight through to the last.

Pepper’s signature addictive writing style shines in this dark, bloody “spa trip gone wrong” adventure. The tension between sweet, resilient Rook and tortured, dangerous Lucien is absolutely palpable. I won’t regurgitate the synopsis—just go in blind. Trust me.

What truly pulled me in, though, were the characters themselves. Rook is achingly sweet, strong, and impossible not to root for. Lucien is unpredictable, dangerous, and dripping in morally gray energy. Their connection unfolds amid kidnapping, survival, and a brutal fight to endure everything Cinderkeep demands of them, and I just need more.

This book ends on a hot, wicked cliffhanger, and I cannot wait to dive into Burning Blood when it releases in the next month or so. One-click worthy.

Release Date: January 11, 2026


BLURB


He lives by a set of rules. She might be his one exception.


I just wanted a distraction, something to take the edge off before facing a wedding I was dreading. So on the flight back to New York, I signed up for a dating app. Harmless enough, right?


Wrong.


Turns out, it wasn’t just any app—it catered to people with very specific tastes. By the time I realized it, I was already on my date.


Tall, confident, and sinfully handsome, Jagger Langston seemed like the full package. The chemistry between us was instant—electric enough to burn the whole city down. Though things took a turn when we figured out I’d misunderstood who should join the app. We laughed it off, said goodbye, and went our separate ways.


Or so I thought.


Until I walked into my new internship Monday morning, ready to put the weekend behind me, and there he was—my boss.


Now I’m caught between the rules he lives by—and the temptation to make him break every single one of them.

Spoiler-free Review of The Exception by Vi Keeland 


The ExceptionThe Exception by Vi Keeland
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Exception by Vi Keeland was truly exceptional — a little kink, a lot of laughs, plenty of tension, and just the right amount of the feels to make you forget the world for a while. This workplace, opposites-attract romance is everything.

Sutton is a smart and sassy algorithm expert who meets Jagger on a dating app called DARE. They figure out pretty quickly that Sutton isn’t into Jagger’s brand of fun. They part ways until her internship begins. Enter Jagger: Sutton’s spicy, demanding new boss who will have you swooning from page one.

I also adored Sutton’s best friend, Miles. Everyone needs a Miles in their life. His banter with Sutton about Jagger is hysterical. He’s the ultimate best friend: loyal, chaotic in the best possible way, and the comedic relief we all need.
I would share my favorite quotes, but I don’t want to spoil the fun for you.

The Exception, releasing January 11, 2026, is another unputdownable and addictive romance from Vi. It has officially earned a spot on my Best of 2025/26 list.

Review: Rhythm Man by Dyan Layne

Rhythm Man by Dyan Layne is live.  I know all of you Red Door series fans are excited for this one! Check out my spoiler-free review of the seventh book in the Red Door series. Click here to buy Rhythm Man on Kindle Unlimited.

Rhythm Man by Dyan Layne Kindle Crack

Blurb:

The wolf is a hunter, the rabbit its prey.

Matt McCready had nothing once; now, he has it all.
Money. Fame. The big house. A fancy car. His boys. The band.

Still, one thing was missing. Something he never hoped to find.
Until an intriguing girl with hazel-green eyes brought a pizza to his door.

He didn’t know it then, the first time he met Gina, she was only four.
His childhood friend’s little sister, but she wasn’t little anymore.

And now that he'd found her, he had to go after her, even if he lost a friend.
It was far too late when he realized he could lose a lot more than that.

Run, little rabbit, run.
I will catch you.

*Rhythm Man, book 7 in the Red Door series, contains subject matter that may be sensitive or triggering to some readers and is intended for mature audiences. While you don't need to read the previous books in the series, as this is a standalone novel featuring a unique romance, it is highly recommended. Red Door is a series of interconnected standalone novels. All of the main characters reappear, and some storylines entwine throughout each book. For the best experience, the series should be read in order.

Spoiler-free Review of Rhythm Man

Rhythm Man (Red Door, #7)Rhythm Man by Dyan Layne
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Rhythm Man by Dyan Layne is smoking hot!

Just wait until you hit chapters 2 and 24. I’m pretty sure I melted my Kindle screen while reading Rhythm Man (Red Door Series #7). I absolutely love this series of spicy, interconnected standalones. Each book packs a lot of heart and heat.

I highly recommend reading the Red Door series in order to fully appreciate the characters’ complex backstories. You won’t feel lost if you start with this one, but reading the series in order really gives you the full Red Door experience, and it’s so worth it!

I’m excited for Kit’s story, The Bassline (Red Door Series #8).
