Business Casual by B.K. Borison

January 5, 2026 by wicherwill 3 Comments

I really did want to give this more stars, and maybe I will change my mind, but for now this is where we are at. PROS: – Love the constant, in-time consent! Charlie in particular is insistent on always checking in and asking Nova to be clear about what she wants, even when she’s trying for like, “oh you know what I want” type answers. Communication can be sexy! – Nova asks for what she wants (a casual relationship) (a business casual, hence the title, […]

“People get too caught up in how things look instead of how things feel”

Lovelight Farms by B K Borison

December 29, 2025 by Nart Leave a Comment

An unexpectedly lovely holiday romance. I didn’t know they made those. Plot: Stella grew up without being able to set down roots. She and her mom moved around a lot, and among other issues, had very limited funds. But every year, her mom would find a Christmas tree farm that let people come in for free, and they’d spend some time taking in some holiday magic. She wanted that magic, and to share it with others. And more than anything, she wanted to set down […]

It started out well

First-Time Caller by B.K. Borison

November 7, 2025 by Sophia Leave a Comment

I found First-Time Caller (2025) by B.K. Borison on my library’s list of popular and available audio books. This one sounded cute and I started it with high hopes. And it started out really well. Unfortunately, I kind of lost interest in the middle and the end of the book. It wasn’t bad, but the characters didn’t seem real, and I didn’t find it very romantic. Aiden Valentine is the host of Heartstrings, a call-in radio show where he dispenses relationship advice. Although he’s not really qualified for […]

Same Time Next Year by Tessa Bailey

January 11, 2024 by RevGirlUtena Leave a Comment

Here are some 2023 reviews that I didn’t manage to get out before the deadline: Butcher & Blackbird by Brynne Weaver Sloane is just your average, everyday woman who just so happens to enjoy murdering serial killers and posing them in grisly tableaus as a hobby. Who can’t relate? One day, she is accidentally trapped by a killer she has just murdered and is worried she is going to starve to death when she is saved by Rowan, an everyday man who also just so […]
