ARC Review: My Big Fat Fake Marriage by Charlotte Stein

Publication Date: March 11, 2025

I loved this book! The forced proximity and one bed DID IT FOR ME and I was here for it. It took me a minute to get into the story but once the characters arrived at their ski villa, I was dying laughing at their tension and subsequent awkwardness. 

Connie and Beck have a beautiful and at times, hilarious relationship. I enjoyed how they danced around each other and how much of a cinnamon roll MMC Beck is. It was great seeing Connie realize that categorizing all the “nice guys” in one box had held her back from seeing how wonderful Beck truly was. It was giving growth in all the best ways!

This was a cute read that is perfect for the wintertime. I lived vicariously through their ski chalet and writing retreat- it truly sounds like the dream! It was an easy book to read and enjoy.

Thank you to St. Martin’s Press 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: You Won’t Forget Me by Mazey Eddings

Publication Date: June 8, 2026 MAZEY EDDINGS, WOW. This book is the slow burn trope at its absolute finest, and I am thoroughly wrecked. You Won’t Forget Me is peak pining and the dynamic between Cubby and Darcy is everything. The two bandmates falling in love story is always a good one, and this was…

ARC Review: Brighter than Before by Courtney Walsh

Publication Date: June 9, 2026 Brighter than Before was such a tender story about falling in love and finding oneself again. Claire and Miles are both older characters, and that maturity was beyond refreshing. I loved seeing Claire’s grown-up daughter, Minnie, interact with Claire and with Miles on a quest to find Claire a romantic…
