Friends and Foes

Title: Friends and Foes

Series: The Jonquil Brothers #1

Author: Sarah M. Eden

My Review:

Philip and Sorrel have a horrible first encounter. It truly gives them the opportunity to be enemies to more, and they do declare themselves at war.

My Review:

The Kiss of a Stranger

Title: The Kiss of a Stranger

Series: The Jonquil Brothers #0

Author: Sarah M. Eden

Source: Hoopla Ebook

My Review:

Overall, I enjoyed The Kiss of a Stranger. Because I am reading the books in the recommended reading order, I had already been introduced to several people in the story before beginning this one. I do think that helped to set the stage and enhance my enjoyment of this story.

TTT-One Word Reviews

Happy Tuesday my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic is: One word reviews for the last ten books I read (a throwback to 2022). This sounds fun, but possibly hard, LOL! Some of my words/descriptions might sound mean, and that is not my intention. My intention is to always be honest with my reviews. Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl and you can head over there to see what our other bookish friends are up to today. 

Top Ten Tuesday-One Word Reviews-Click on the cover of the book if you would like to see all my thoughts on a particular book.

My Review:

This is the third book in the Lancaster Family series and I highly recommend reading them in order for the best enjoyment. I love the Dangerous Duke (Adam, whom we meet in book one). I adored his unique relationship with Daphne.

October Reading Wrap Up 2026

October was busy, especially with moving, but I feel like I was still able to read a lot. It was a better reading month than the last few months have been, as far as ratings/enjoyment goes. I finished 20 books, and I had  two 2-star reads, so only 18 will be highlighted here.  Click on the cover of the book if you are interested in reading my review.
