ARC Review: Change of Heart by Falon Ballard

Publication Date: February 11, 2025

I am simply OBSESSED with anything Falon Ballard writes!!! This book was short and sweet in all of the best ways. I GET Cam’s workaholic nature and how it takes a dramatic change of scenery to make her see that there is more to life. The switch from her fast paced life in New York to the slow nature of Heart Springs is both amusing and revealing. Personally, I would LOVE to visit Heart Springs in all its adorable nature.

Cam cracked me up so much in this book. I loved her bitter attitude and all the things that go wrong for her as a result. Ben is adorable and his patience is everything you want in a love interest. In many ways this book felt that it also had a friends to lovers arc and I adored that. 

I loved this book. The setting of Heart Springs is perfect and the characters are relatable. The slow burn is *chef’s kiss*. If I could reread it for the first time again I would. It warmed my heart and reminded me to believe in love and how love changes us for the better. It was just a beautiful story and I cannot say enough good things about it. 

Thank you to PENGUIN GROUP Putnam for the opportunity to read and review this book! I received a free advance copy of this book via NetGalley and am voluntarily leaving a review. All opinions expressed are my own.

ARC Review: Enter the Villa by Anna Peele

Publication Date: May 19, 2026 As a longtime Love Island fan, Enter the Villa was fascinating. Hearing from production about the stereotypes of various characters on the show, how the show morphed over time, and how the show became the mega popular force it is today was incredibly interesting. It truly was a look behind…
