Nanny turned amateur sleuth. 

Ukrainian hotel mogul turned single dad. 

And a relentless detective who might tear them apart. 

Aurora Sinclair is a failure. At least that’s what she thinks when she’s not selected for a crucial internship, and her dream of becoming a school psychologist hits a dead end. Hoping for a change, Aurora decides to take a stopgap nanny job for a boy whose mother recently died under suspicious circumstances. When she meets his father, Sergei Chernov, she’s taken aback by his unapproachable demeanor. However, as they spend time together, Aurora discovers the soft, hopeful layer beneath, making it hard to keep boundaries from blurring. 

Sergei is a guarded Ukrainian mogul opening a luxury hotel in Las Vegas. Following his wife’s tragic death, Sergei is determined to be the best papa he can be. When Aurora enters his home, she ignites an unexpected attraction that threatens to complicate his already messy world. While navigating these feelings, he must protect his loved ones from the shadows of his past. 

But when Daniel Custode, an overzealous detective, finds out that Aurora is working for Sergei, he pressures her into joining his investigation to prove Sergei is responsible for his wife’s death. As Daniel’s demands escalate, Aurora grows increasingly determined to clear Sergei’s name. She must decide whether to betray the man she’s falling for—or come clean and risk losing him.

Where do I begin? It was a joy to read this book. Undercover Light had me on the edge of my seat from beginning to end. Every chapter had me craving for more; wondering what was going to happen next between Aurora and Sergei, and what Aurora and Daniel would uncover next. Daniel, I wasn’t so sure about him, and even though I understood why he did it, he seemed so sure that it was Sergei who was responsible for his wife’s death; it seemed like he didn’t even want to consider that it could have been someone else. I was curious to see what he would uncover. Like Daniel and Aurora, I was curious to find out what happened to Alessia. 

Undercover Light had me going through a range of emotions as I read. I adored the bond between Aurora and Misha; it was as if she were meant to be his nanny. I think it was because of her that Sergei started spending more time with his son. I could tell when Sergei fell for Aurora, even if he tried to deny his feelings. The way that he looked out for her. The way he seemed to want to spend time with her and Misha. I knew that it was only a matter of time until they fell for each other. Plus, Aurora was trying to learn Russian. I'm Russian, and it's a hard language to learn. I was rooting for them throughout the book, but I was also afraid of what might happen if Sergei found out what Aurora was doing. 

I was born in Ukraine, so I loved that one of main characters was Ukrainian, and he has my brother’s name. I have read few romance mystery books, but this one; it was unique and that was one of my favorite aspects of the book. I loved how the story kept you on guessing. The last few chapters of the book, I couldn’t put down, and probably stayed up later than should have, to finish it. I’m so excited that there is going be a second book! A beautifully written debut novel.

Heart Breaker(Deep Cove Millionaires Club,#3)

 

 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

 

 Thank you to the author,Lily Miller for letting me be part of ARC Team! 

 

 

 

 

I didn’t plan on getting into a fake marriage with a millionaire pilot I barely know, but that’s exactly what happened when I said “I do” to Wes Winters, Deep Cove’s broodiest bachelor. 

So how did I get here? It’s all thanks to a looming scandal, a pushy publicist, and a deal too tempting to turn down. When a long-buried controversy from Wes’s past resurfaced and threatened to destroy the reputation he spent years rebuilding, suddenly I became the perfect solution. It turns out a sunshine wedding planner with a spotless track record is exactly what his image needs. 

The plan is simple: fake the perfect marriage and play happy newlyweds for one year, long enough for the tabloids to lose interest. Thanks to our carefully arranged marriage, Wes will get the squeaky-clean image he desperately needs, and I’ll get my dad’s medical bills taken care of. 

Simple enough, right? 

Except pretending to be Wes’s wife is a lot harder than I expected. He’s guarded, frustrating, and impossible to read. One minute he’ll barely speak to me, and the next he’s looking at me with those deep, charcoal eyes like he wants to devour me. Good thing none of this is real. At least, that’s what I keep telling myself as my ruggedly handsome new husband kisses me in public, calls me his wife like he means it, and slowly starts showing me pieces of himself no one else gets to see. 

Somewhere between sharing a home, pretending to be in love, and a chemistry so intense it’s impossible to ignore, the lines between fake and real blur beyond recognition and falling for my husband starts to feel inevitable.

 🌷

 
From the moment that I started reading this book, I knew that I was in for a wild ride. Before I even realized it, I finished half of the book. I’ve recently read the first book, Deal Breaker, and I loved it. However, this book…so many emotions, and it didn’t take me long to fall in love with Lottie and Wes. The connection between those two had me smiling. Although it started as a fake marriage, Wes tried to take care of Lottie and made sure she got everything she needed. There was nothing fake about that. 

One of my favorite aspects of Heart Breaker was the way that the growth in the relationship between Wes and Lottie was portrayed. It wasn’t just physical, but emotional too. I liked the way they slowly started to open to each other. The way that Wes took Lottie’s feelings into account reassured me of how much he cared about her and that she didn’t have to deal with it alone; it melted my heart. Their chemistry in general was so heartfelt. I was waiting for Lottie to see how much Wes cared about her and wanted to be with her. The scenes between those two were connected; I couldn’t get enough. I’m still thinking about it. 

Another favorite aspect in Heart Breaker that both had me smiling and broke my heart was the relationship between Lottie and her parents, especially her father. I loved the bond that those two had, and how Lottie was willing to do anything to help her father. I lost my grandmother 4 months ago, and reading this, it had me thinking about her, and I felt as if I could relate to how Lottie was feeling. I’m so glad that I discovered this author. Now, I’m going to go backward and read the second book. The way that this book ended, I’m eager for Noah’s story to come out.

Made Better Together(Battles In Love,#4)

 

 

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️ 

 

  Thank you to the author,Kylie Skye, and Kylie Skye's MVP for eArc. All opinions are my own

 

  

EDEN

 
It’s been a year since I last saw him, when we shared a Fourth of July I’ll never forget. Only this time, he’s moved to my city for good. I’m overwhelmed by senior year pre-med reqs and my soccer goals, but still—I’m curious if our undeniable connection can turn into something real… 

The only problem? His new job doesn’t allow him to date clients. And guess which firm I hired to help manage my soccer opportunities?

 
CONNOR

 
I’ve been gifted a fresh start in Orlando, but I can’t seem to get things right—either with my post-college career or with her. Because as soon as we live in the same city, it turns out she’s off-limits. The fact that I’m stuck with this office job, after not being invited to any NFL rookie minicamps, only adds salt to the wound. 

With her so close now, there’s no way I can stand by and do nothing. Maybe we just keep things secret? Who would get hurt, anyway?

 🌷

 
Battles In Love has become one of my favorite sports romance series. It shouldn’t be surprising how much I loved Made Better Together, but once again, Kylie found another way to make me fall in love with the characters. I loved Eden and Connor together and couldn’t help but fall in love with them. It seemed that the universe seemed to push another challenge in their way, just when they thought that they could make it work. What I loved about the two of them was that they didn’t stop. However, I was worried about them keeping a secret; if anyone found out, I knew it could blow up. I hoped that they wouldn’t have to keep it secret for long. 

I couldn’t get enough of how Eden and Connor were supporting each other; of their dreams. Those two were always there, cheering each other on, and not once did they ask each other to give up their dreams for each other. The growth between Connor and Eden as a couple and individually was amazing. It was as if I were watching my friends achieve their dreams. I can’t even remember the number of times I smiled while reading the scenes between the two of them. There were days I read for hours, without realizing how much time had passed. I hoped that they would find a way to be together; without hiding. 

I can’t get the story out of my mind. I was lucky enough to read all four books as ARCs, and I loved them all. I think that’s one of the reasons that I loved the ending; it had me smiling so much. In general, I had so much fun reading this series, and part of me is sad that it’s over. However, I’m excited for Kylie’s next series! I also loved the way that Kylie portrayed family dynamics in this book. Made Better Together was so heartfelt, and so real.

Together Is Where We Belong(Courtright Ranch,#2)

 

 

  ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

 

  Thank you to the author,Harper Faith and The Author Agency for providing me with E-ARC, in exchange for honest review.   

 

 

At eighteen, I left Haven Valley with Leo Courtright’s final words ringing in my ears. 

I hate you. 

I swore I’d never come back to the small town—or the boy—I’d left behind. But when the manstalking me gets too close, I run to the only place that’s ever felt safe. 

Home. 

Coming back meant seeing the blue-eyed boy who was once my entire world. Only Leo isn’t a boy anymore. He’s colder. Harder. And he still looks at me like I wrecked his life. Returning home also means revealing the secret I’ve kept for eight years. 

He has Leo’s eyes. 

His inquisitive nature. 

And he can’t wait to meet his dad. 

When Leo shows up at my front door to welcome his new neighbor, the second his gaze lands on the little boy behind me, everything changes. 

The man who swore he hates me is suddenly everywhere—fixing broken locks, watching over us, asking questions I can’t answer without risking the fragile life I built to protect my son. 

The more time we spend together, the harder it becomes to deny what’s always been between us.
Because some first loves stay with you forever. 

Some people never stop feeling like home. 

And maybe, after everything we lost, together is where we belong. 

If the past—and the danger chasing us—doesn’t destroy us first.

 🌷

 
Such a heartwarming but heartbreaking story about first love, family, and a second chance. I’m still swooning over Carolina and Leo. 

I didn’t know what to expect from this story, since I haven’t read anything by this author. It was the cover, the title, and the blurb that caught my attention. The blurb is what caught my attention most of all; it sounded moving yet suspenseful. The moment I started reading Together Is Where We Belong, I knew I was in trouble, and I was right. I read it in a day because just when I thought I could put it down, something happened that kept me reading for a few more hours. Leo and Carolina’s story isn’t one you will be able to forget. You can feel the chemistry between the two of them from the moment they reunite. Even though Leo tries to fight it, I can tell how much he cares about her. 

I adored the instant bond that Leo had with his son, Luke. I couldn’t help but love Luke; his energy was so addictive, and I loved how he accepted Leo, even if he wasn’t in his life for a while. He was such a joy to read about. The three of them were a family, and even though Leo tried to stay clear, they still acted like one. I was rooting for them all through the book. I’m glad that Carolina came back and that Luke protected her once he found out about her stalker. I was scared for her and hoped the stalker wouldn’t find her. 

Family was an important aspect in this book. Despite what happened in the past, I loved how Courtright family accepted Luke, and how they tried protecting the two of them. I was smiling at the way that they all came together. Even though I finished the book this morning, I still cannot get it out of my head. Everything in this book, including the suspense, was portrayed in such depth and filled with so much emotion. Now, I must go back and check out the first book in the series. Highly recommended.

Trying Not To Need You(Moran Sisters,#2)

 

 

 

 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

 

 4.5★ 

Thank you to author,Kaylee Ryan for letting me be part of her ARC Team! 

 

Baylor

 
I thought I was living my happily ever after. 

But after five years in New York, building my life around a man who stopped choosing me, I realized our future was nothing more than a dream. 

So I walked away. 

From the city. From him. From the family I thought we’d build together. ,br> Now I’m back in Magnolia Ridge with my sisters, trying to figure out who I am without the life I planned. 

I didn’t come home looking for love. 

But somehow, love has been waiting for me all along.

 
Macklin

 
I’ve loved Baylor Moran for years. 

The timing was always wrong. Until now. 

She’s back in Magnolia Ridge with a bruised heart and walls higher than ever. But that's okay. I'll be here when they’re ready to come down. 

Baylor can take all the time she needs. 

I’m not going anywhere. 

And while she’s trying not to need me, I’ll keep loving her until she realizes she’s not falling apart anymore.
She’s finally falling—straight into the future we were always meant to have. 

  🌷

 
I have no words. This book blew me away, and I am still going through a range of emotions. I loved the first book, Trying Not To Kiss You, but this one is my favorite- at least for right now. I read Trying Not To Need You in one day; I couldn’t stop, I didn’t want to stop because I was so invested in Baylor and Macklin’s story. Macklin is the type of guy that every girl dreams about – if only every guy treated their girl the way that he did. I think I fell in love with Macklin myself. I adored the way he treated Baylor and the way he tried to prove to her how much she meant to him. However, I did feel like he came on a little too strong at the beginning. 

I liked the way that Kaylee transitioned Baylor and Mackin’s relationship from friendship to romance; it was so bittersweet. I’m still smiling just thinking about it. I loved that Mackin wasn’t pushing her into relationship but also showing her different ways that he cares about her. You can’t help but swoon over Mackling; who doesn’t want a man who cooks your favorite food for you, and dances with you? I couldn’t get enough of the two of them, and hoped that Baylor will see that Macklin is the guy for her. 

Found family was another one of my favorite aspects in this book. I adore the close relationship that the Moran sisters have with each other. I’m curious to see which Moran sister the next book will be about. Trying Not To Need You is not a book that you want to miss.

Run Back Home(Golden City,#4)

 

 

 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

 

 Thank you to author,Cassandra Moll for letting me be part of  ARC Team! 

 

 

   09.23.26   

Lenora O'Reilly has many names—Nora, Lenny, Len—but only one major regret: choosing small-town life over true love. 

When high school ended, Lenny couldn’t bring herself to leave the safety, security, and familiarity of Mage Hollow—even if it meant walking away from the plans she’d built with her MLB-bound boyfriend. 

But what she didn’t realize was that the one thing she truly needed would disappear the moment she made that choice—
Him. 

Now Lenny spends her life as a travel nurse—always moving, always leaving—because the place she once called home has never felt like home again.

 
Jace Holloway was always meant for the big leagues—talented, driven, and able to anticipate the last minute bounce or unpredictable hop. And the pit-stop his family made in Mage Hollow only proved that nothing could derail his dreams.
But there was one curveball Jace never saw coming— 

Lenny staying after he left. 

Now, six years later, although he's thriving in Golden City with his family back together, he's still living with regrets of his own. 

And without the one person he never stopped missing. 

When Lenny’s newest nursing assignment lands her in the same city where Jace now starts at shortstop for the Gators, neither of them expects to keep bumping into each other. 

But they should have known—the universe has always had a way of putting them together.

 
Now they’re learning that you can’t outrun your problems. 

And that scoring big almost always means heading home.

 

 🌷

I loved every single moment of this book; the characters, the story, the setting. I’m so glad that I got the chance to read this book. I have a feeling this will be the book I re-read in the future. The Run Back Home is the second book I've read by Cassandra and, so far, my favorite. I haven't read the first two books in the Golden City series, and now that I've read the last one, I'm going to check out the others. One of my favorites is the found-family aspect; it's so heartwarming to see how everyone looks out for one another. That's why it's impossible to have a favorite character; you can't help but fall in love with all of them. It reminds me so much of my best friends, who became like family to me. 

Lenny and Jace : You can see that those two belong together from the start. Their story was both heartbreaking and heartwarming, and I found myself reading late into the night because I needed to know what happened. I could tell that Lenny’s feelings for Jace never faded; just the way that she acted around him. I loved the way that Cassandra portrayed their relationship; it was emotional at times, but also realistic. I was so invested in their relationship, rooting for them all the way through. 

I love the way Cassandra portrayed deaf awareness and Vienna’s journey to get the implant. I can’t even begin to imagine how she must feel, but the descriptions were phenomenal, so I felt as if I could. I have a deaf friend, so I loved that it was featured in this book. I also loved the relationship that Jace had with his sister, and Lenny too; it had me smiling on multiple occasions. In general; if I could give this book more than five stars, I would. Such a beautiful, inspirational book.

Falling For The Enemy(Hawthrone Brothers,#2)

 

 

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

 Thank you to the author,Lydia Michaels and LMPR for eARC. All opinions are my own.

Soren Hawthorne is arrogant, brooding, and used to getting everything he wants—including ruthless control of his family's empire. The last thing this grumpy alpha billionaire needs is any lip from Jocelyn Collins, the sharp-tongued, beautiful, chaotic, Viking smut author with an evil chihuahua that hates his guts. 

Jocelyn has spent her whole life being too much. Too loud, too messy, too wild for a small-town that likes its love stories neat and tidy. She writes happily-ever-afters for a living but never believed she'd get one of her own. Especially not with the infuriating, insufferable, impossibly gorgeous man she's been at war with since the third grade. 

But twenty years of slow-burn tension has to break somewhere. And once Soren realizes the woman he wants has been right there all along, his possessive nature kicks.

 🌷

 
I've been curious about the Hawthorne brothers ever since I read The Holiday Clause last December. I loved Greyson and Wren’s story, but I loved Soren and Jocelyn’s story even more. There was something about those two that had me rooting for them. Although they claimed they hated each other, I could tell there was more to it. Those two had such chemistry; the ones that they seemed to deny. I hoped that they would figure out that what two of them had was more than sex. I do believe that Soren fell for Jocelyn first, the way he wanted to take care of her, and the jealousy. I just hoped he wouldn’t do something stupid to mess up the relationship. 

Soren…I had my doubts about him when I started reading the book. The things he did and said sometimes frustrated me. However, I could tell how much he cared about Jocelyn, even if it took him some time to realize it. One of my favorite things about Lydia’s books is the way that she portrays the characters and their emotions. I felt every emotion that Soren and Jocelyn had. I felt their anger, frustration, love, and doubt. I loved this town in winter during Holiday Clause, and I loved it during the fall. Everything about it made me wish that it was real, so I could go there and escape for a while.

Once again, it warmed my heart how the town came together. The way Lydia portrayed the relationship between Soren and Jocelyn was phenomenal; you could see their growth. I also loved the banter between them and found myself laughing out loud at some of it. I didn’t want this story to end, and I'm hoping that they make an appearance in the next book. I’m excited to see what’s in store for Logan.

Yours Trully,Fall(Season Sisters,#2)

 

 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

 

 Thank you to the author,S.L Scott and The Author Agency for providing me with E-ARC, in exchange for honest review.   

  

There are worse things than being stuck alone in a cabin with a hot as sin firefighter who’s good with his hands. A lot worse . . . This should be fun. 

Agreeing to help Brandon Culver recover from his injury seemed harmless enough. 

Sure, he’s a firefighter and Mountain Laurel Cove’s most eligible bachelor. But I’m too busy focusing on my nursing career to be distracted by a handsome face. 

Unfortunately, Brandon is a lot more than a great face. 

He’s steady. Dependable. He’s the kind of man who remembers the little things and shows up when it matters. His easy confidence is comforting. His quiet strength makes me feel safe. And the way he looks at me makes me question everything I thought I wanted. 

But I’m in his home to care for him, not fall for him. 

One tiny slip could ruin all the plans I’ve meticulously made for my life. Romance is a fool’s game and if I’m anything, I’m level-headed. Until his heated gaze and lingering touch threaten to turn the electricity between us into a five-alarm fire. 

If I’m not careful, I might be the one getting burned.

 🌷

 
A charming, heartfelt small-town romance, with fall vibes. 

Yours Truly, Fall was the cozy romance that I love, and the one that I needed. I adored Brandon and Autumn; their banter, but also the way that they fell for each other. I know that Autumn had doubts about him, because of what happened in the past, but I thought that she should let the past go, give them a second chance. In the past couple of years, I fell in love with the small-town and second-chance romance trope. Yours Truly, Fall is the type of second-chance romance that I love. I couldn’t help but smile; the way that Autumn took care of Brandon and made sure that he was healing the way he should. I do believe there was more than one reason that she agreed to take care of Brandon. 

There were quite a few moments between Autumn and Brandon that had me smiling. I was rooting for the two of them from the start. I have read a few books that dealt with amnesia, but the way S.L. was interconnected with the rest of the story was unique. I wondered if Brandon would remember or if this would be their second chance to start over. I loved the Season sisters, and don’t you just love their names? I didn’t know it was a series until I started reading this one. Now I want to go back and read Summer’s book. Once again, I love the depth that S.L gave to the characters; partially Brandon and Autumn. She also always has a way to connect you with all the characters. There was part of me that didn’t want book to end, and I’m hoping that Autumn and Brandon will make appearance in the next book.

Fall In Love(Lovewell Landing,#1)

 

 

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

 

 Thank you to author,L.B Dunbar for EARC. All opinions are my own.

 

  

Neve Snowe doesn't need to settle down. She is already settled in her small harbor town, with a cozy beach cottage and part ownership in the family-run auto repair shop. She doesn't want a man, but she likes them. And she has one golden only sleep with flatlanders. You know, the guys who never intend to stay in Lovewell Landing, only use the coastal area for a brief holiday. 

And the last thing she desired was the unexpected . . . to be expecting. 

Tate Love spent his summers in Lovewell Landing as a teenager, but somehow he'd missed the beautiful girl who turned into a spunky woman, daring him to jump into the icy ocean one New Year's Eve, then slept with him near the town's sacred well, holding spell-binding waters. 

He never thought he'd see her again, until nine months later, a business prospect brings him back to the area.
Now, the man who longs to be tied down finds that one night planted the seed to everything he ever wanted, while he holds the pen that could sign away all she's ever loved.

 

 🌷

 

 
I adored Neve and Tate’s story! It’s such a heartwarming story that had me overflowing with emotions. I had a feeling that I was going to enjoy this book. Since I discovered the author last year, there hasn’t been a book of hers that I haven’t loved. However, there is something about Fall In Love, that will have you falling in love with the characters, especially Neve and Tate. I loved the way Tate took care of Nave, despite the way she pushed him away. Although the two of them had a one-night stand, you could tell that they cared about each other more than that, even if Neve tried to deny her feelings. I loved how excited Tate was when he found out he was the father, and how willing he was to do anything to take care of Neve and the baby. 

I loved all the fall vibes in this book. All the descriptions in this book made me wish that Lovewell Landing was real, so I could go visit. It sounded just like my type of town. Fall In Love is the type of book that, once you pick it up, you will have trouble putting back down. I wanted to keep on reading this book, but because of school, I had to force myself to put it down. I did find myself thinking about the story and wondering what would happen next with Neve and Tate. I understood why Neve didn’t want to let him in, but I was hoping that she would see that he was here to stay and that he cared about her. I was rooting for them all the way through the book. 

This story will touch your heart in so many ways. The depth of the characters was phenomenal; especially for Neve and Tate. I fell in love with Tate from beginning; he’s the type of guy that every girl dreams about. Everything that he did for Neve; it melted my heart and had me smiling. I wish I could give this book more than five stars; it deserves every star. I’m excited for the next book in the series. Highly recommended for romance fans; especially small town, second chance tropes.

Midnight Detour.

One week. Two seasoned travelers. One major travel disruption neither of them wanted…

 
June Moretti likes to travel alone. Confident, capable, and guided by her personal mantra “everything is figure-out-able”, she’s en route from London to Portland, Oregon for her best friend’s wedding. But when her flight makes an emergency landing in British Columbia, June suddenly has to figure out how to get to Portland in time for the wedding. 

 
Worse? She’s stuck with Cam Olsen. Sarcastic, calm under pressure, and annoyingly attractive, he also happens to be the groom’s brother. With flights grounded and time ticking, their only shot at getting to the wedding in time is an epic journey across the Pacific Northwest by any means necessary—bus, train, or questionable hitchhiking. 

What begins as a travel inconvenience becomes a cross-country misadventure filled with unexpected sparks, confessions, and one too many dodgy hotel rooms. And somewhere along the way, June discovers that maybe not everything can—or should—be figured out alone.

   🌷

 
I had a feeling I was going to love this book, based on the blurb and tropes. It sounded like my type of book. The story blew me away; I didn’t expect to fall in love with June and Cam the way I did. There was so much depth in the characters and the story itself. One of my favorite aspects of the story is that the two of them met while traveling. I always loved stories that included traveling. I liked the way June and Cam’s relationship unfolded throughout their journey, and the way they stood by each other's side, even with the unwanted twist their journey took. 

Every page had me on the edge of my seat, wondering what adventures they would face next. I found myself connecting with most of the characters in this book, even the minor characters. I loved how Savannah portrayed every character in the story. I couldn’t put this book down, and when I did, I was thinking about it or talking about it with my friends. Midnight Detour was so much more than I thought it would be. I felt as if I went on the cross-country adventure with June and Cam. 

June and Cam changed in so many ways from the beginning of the book. I also loved the bond between June and Penny. In general, I loved so much about this book that I can keep going. However, I don’t want to give too much away, so you should pick up a copy to find out for yourself.

The Hollywood Switch Up.

Impersonating her sister was the easy part. Falling for her sister's enemy wasn't.

 
Erika Morgan is used to being the wrong twin. The overlooked one. The shadow. So when a devastating accident puts her in her famous sister's spotlight, she does what any sensible person would panics, agrees to impersonate her, and prays no one notices she's not the sister they wanted. 

Enter Stefan her sister's gorgeous, infuriating co-star with a grudge, a razor-sharp intuition, walls no one has breached in years—and absolutely no reason to keep Erika's secret when he discovers it. But he does. Worse, he keeps looking at her like she's someone worth finding. 

Now she's stranded in paradise with a man who sees too much, a director who can end careers with a word—and wants something she's not willing to give, and a lie that could cost her everything—including the one person who finally sees her. The only way out is stop hiding in her sister's shadow and step into the light as herself. 

Even if it burns.

  🌷

 
Heartbreaking. Inspirational. 

There are many more words to explain this book. When I came across The Hollywood Switch -Up , I was expecting a cozy romcom; it was so much more than that, and I loved every minute of it. I was engaged in this story from the first page until the last. There wasn’t a single page that didn’t keep my attention. When I reached the last page, I wanted to go back and read it again. I had a range of emotions by the time I finished the book, and I tried to figure out the best way to write this review. There's so much that I loved about this book: the characters, the plot, and the setting. I liked that this was about a twin swap; however, it wasn't what I expected (in a good way). 

The way that Hallie portrayed Erika’s growth was phenomenal. By the middle of the book, it was as if Erika were a completely different person. I loved her determination; despite what was happening, she kept on going and protecting the people she loved. I do wish that she had told Stefan what was happening, but I understood why she didn’t. I couldn’t get enough of Stefan and Erika; the way their relationship grew was real. I wished that Erika hadn’t listened to her sister, Annie, and had just let herself feel. Based on how he treated and cared for Erika, he wasn’t what Annie told Erika. I was cheering from the beginning. 

I felt all the emotions, especially towards the end of the book, and that was the part where it became impossible to put the book down. Annie, I liked her, but there were times when she annoyed me. I could tell she cared about Erika, but at times, I felt she cared more about her image. I am curious about her and Bradley, and part of me thinks they should get their own book. I’m hooked and cannot wait to see what Hallie has in store for us next.
