📖 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.

Two for Tuesday: A Perfect Pairing  💌 This week’s dreamy duo? The Fine Print by Lauren Asher and an iced vanilla latte. Sweet, bold, and just the right amount of magic — a book-beverage combo made for fairytale daydreamers.  🏰 ✨ The Fine Print by Lauren Asher Trope: grumpy x sunshine ☀️ Rating: 5/5 ⭐ (If I could I'd give it a 6 star) 💭 Lauren Asher delivered a fairytale I didn’t know I needed. When Zahra submits a brutally honest proposal about Dreamland’s biggest ride, she expects to be fired—not offered her dream job by Rowan Kane, the grumpy billionaire in charge.  Rowan builds fairy tales for a living, but his world turns upside down when feelings get involved—and secrets come to light. A workplace romance full of spark, tension, and just the right amount of magic. ✨ Favorite Quote:  “To the girls who dream of meeting a prince  but end up falling for the misunderstood villain.” Coffee Match :  Perfectly paired with an iced vanilla latte 🧋 — swe...
