Love Feud by Janine Amesta

The Third Moreno Sister’s Story

The Love Feud by Janine Amesta

July 20, 2026 by faintingviolet Leave a Comment

Late last summer and early fall I read the first two books of Janine Amesta’s Love in the Air series and had a great time. Due to oversights that are entirely my doing, the third and final book in the series went unread until June of this year. However, I was VERY glad to have this book on vacation in June, so there’s that.   The Love Feud is the story of the youngest Moreno sister, Hailey. There has been a bit of a time jump since the end of The Wedding Con and we are now a few years away from […]

In her Fun Author Questions with Powell’s Books Bannen talks about loving to mash genres together so that we can all have fun in […]

Lucy Parker Delivers (and with a romantic pairing that don’t want kids to boot!)

Headliners (London Celebrities #5) by Lucy Parker

February 12, 2020 by faintingviolet 3 Comments

I love Lucy Parker, it’s as simple as that. I love the kind of book she writes; I love the world she has built in this series and the characters she chooses to populate it with. I’m rating this one five stars, as I did with its immediate predecessor The Austen Playbook mostly because of how it made me feel while I was reading it. That isn’t to say that Parker isn’t using her craft well – she absolutely is – but that craft sunk […]
