pickI really liked this fresh, vivid tale of a Caribbean woman coming to Paris to share the story of her family‘s distillery and to sell their amazing rum around the world. I loved her dear friends, the settings of Paris and Edinburgh, and her indomitable spirit. And the gruff, Scottish Lord she falls for? Spicy perfection! #BookspinBingo @TheAromaofBooks
Of the books on my #auldlangspine list, I chose these ones to prioritize. I read 3 of these 6 this month, and have the other 3 in my #bookspin board for the rest of the year! I love discovering new books & new authors in recommendations from friends. Super glad that @monalyisha puts in the effort to make matches so thoughtfully every year and thank-you to @Amandajoy for the book list!
Finished one #auldlangspine and going on the next…also one #bookspin and on to the other! Stayed up way too late, but I think it was worth it. I‘m curious about the details of the next books in this series…
pickThis is an excellent original historical romance by a favorite author of mine. This is her first foray into historical romance and I look forward to reading more of this series. Both main characters are lovable and well paired. My only criticism is the miscommunication, which is my biggest romance pet peeve.. However, I really did enjoy the time period, the love story and the cultural aspects to the story. 4.5⭐️

#Bookspin 17 … #Doublespin 7 … two of my #auldlangspine books! I just requested the tagged book from my local library and should be available in a few days. I already have Taste from Audible! This worked out great because I can have both going at the same time.
pickReally loved this one and am grateful I got to see Adriana Herrera speak at Printer‘s Row Lit Fest last weekend and get my book signed.

Time to prep for Printer‘s Row Lit Fest this weekend with two books I already had on my TBR for the month anyway.
pick5 glorious stars!! ✨
Now this is how HR should be!! This author didn‘t shy away from anything which is one of the best things I appreciated. She hit colonialism, slavery and exploitation of women head on! I‘m crazy always for a Scottish hero and Evan fit that bill verra nicely. The chemistry and steam between him and Luz Alana was fiery hottt!!! No, I don‘t think you understand..I‘m talking pure fire. My ear buds almost melted.
