Happily Never After by Lynn Painter
Queen B’s Decree: I can’t resist a Lynn Painter rom com. The way she uses “moron” or “dipshit” as affectionate terms of endearment just works for me. I loved so much of the banter in Happily Never After. Whether it was between Sophie and Max, or between her elderly roommates (LARRY FOREVER), I felt like […]
Billionaire Unexplained: Kaleb by J.S. Scott
Queen B’s Decree: J.S. Scott’s Billionaire series are always very satisfying reads, and Kaleb’s was more of the same. Kaleb and Anna are both kind of floundering in their personal life (professional is no big deal, hello, we’re talking billionaire here) when they meet. I love that their relationship started as friends and flourished and […]
How You Get the Girl by Anita Kelly
Queen B’s Decree: There hasn’t ever been an Anita Kelly book that I haven’t loved, and How You Get the Girl doesn’t break that streak. Julie is a high school girl’s basketball coach, and one day her newest player’s foster mom walks in…and it’s the ex-WNBA player that was featured in the posters on he […]
The Friendship Study by Ruby Barrett
Queen B’s Decree: The Friendship Study gave me a lot of warm, fuzzy feelings. Even though I did cry at one point. Lulu and Jesse have an awkward blind date then unexpectedly meet up at a psychological study on the local college campus about the current generation having a hard time making friends. The rules […]
How to Dance by Jason B. Dutton
Queen B’s Decree: How to Dance features a hero that has cerebral palsy, and that is something I wanted to read about so much. After reading, I learned that the author himself incorporated his real-life experience into Nick, and that made it even more meaningful. Hayley and Nick have the opposite of a meet-cute, but […]
The Climb by Amra Pajalic
Queen B’s Decree: I thought that The Climb would be a cute YA friends-to-lovers story, but that’s not quite what we got. Noah and Zephyra have been best friends for years…but the whole time Noah has been pining for her. Zephyra has been *very* clear that she is not interested in him as anything other […]
Whoa by Cambria Hebert
Queen B’s Decree: Kruger is my new book boyfriend. I mean, what else do you need? I loved Whoa. It gave me hardcore nostalgic feels for Cambria’s #hashtag series. Kruger’s devotion, Jess’s work ethic and resilience, the Elite friend group that has become a family. There’s so much I loved about this book, and so […]
Yours to Catch by Harloe Rae
Queen B’s Decree: Yours to Catch is a light and funny friends-to-lovers romance, with a bit of a twist. Grace and Garrett are strangers that meet at Garrett’s bar, but Grace wants a relationship and romance and Garrett is a manwhore…so they decide to be friends instead. Their sexual tension was nice and spicy, and […]
Along Came Charlie by S.L. Scott
Queen B’s Decree: Along Came Charlie was a very realistic portrayal of two people who meet, sparks fly but they both have some baggage, and instead decide to become friends first. The friendship between the two Charlies was my favorite part of the story; it felt so normal and real. Male Charlie was the best—he’d […]
