📖 Favorite Friday: My Top 5 Romance Reads: (So Far This Year) 💘 1. Betting on You by Lynn Painter Why I loved it:  I loved how this book felt like a full-on rom-com, it was funny, heartfelt, and impossible to put down. Bailey and Charlie’s relationship completely won me over, especially the way he truly saw her & her little nickname for her "Glasses" . With so many twists and turns, I devoured it in just a few hours! Favorite Quote:  “When you’re in the room, every single cell in my body – every nerve, every muscle, every breath – is lost in you.”  💘 2. Throttled by Lauren Asher (One of My Favorite Authors! Also #1 in Series) Why I loved it: This was my first Formula 1 romance, and I know there probably aren’t many out there! Noah is kind of a mess, but he’s got such a good heart. He’s also Maya’s brother’s teammate (and not exactly his biggest fan), which makes things very complicated. Everyone warns her to stay far away, but of course, she can’t. Watching their r...

Obsession, shadows, and a love that blurs the line between desire and danger. 📖 What’s It About Adeline is a writer who thought she understood control—until she met him. The Manipulator can twist anyone’s emotions with his words, but against The Shadow , her pleas fall flat. He watches. He waits. And no matter how much she begs for distance, her heart betrays her with every stolen glance. The Shadow never meant to fall in love. But now that he has, he won’t let go. He’s consumed by her smile, her body, her very existence—and once she’s his, he’ll never release her. Not even when she begs him to. ⚠️ Trigger Warnings This book contains graphic violence, stalking, kidnapping, sexual assault, non-consensual situations, blood play, and psychological manipulation.
