ARC Review: The One Who Got Away by K.L. Shannon

Publication Date: September 4, 2024

It was so fun getting to read The One Who Got Away and getting to dive into another rockstar romance! I loved the process of the romantic connection building between Rory and Hannah. There were so many delicious slow burn, tense moments that I loved. 

While I don’t read a lot of age-gap romance, this one totally worked for me. They had the fun banter and ridiculous musical chemistry that led to more physical chemistry. Both characters go through a time of healthy healing and learning how to better communicate those needs rather than running away, and that’s a beautiful thing to see. I believed in them both from the very beginning, which was lovely.

K.L. Shannon does a wonderful job creating compelling characters with multi dimensional lives and rich histories. The romance is gorgeous and spicy at all the right moments. I enjoyed every moment and would absolutely read this again! 

I voluntarily reviewed a free advance copy of this book provided by the author. The 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…
