I love the Appies series and I am working my way through it. When Alec Met Evie is the sixth in the series, but each book works well as a standalone novel.

I love the Appies series and I am working my way through it. Romancing the Grump is the fourth in the series, but each book works well as a standalone novel.

My Review:
First Love, Second Draft takes a hot minute to get into with the changing perspectives of the story. You have the story of the main characters, Noah and Gracie, and you also get the perspective of Gracie's nephew Matt.

Genre: RomCom, Contemporary Romance

My Review:
I have loved all the Bailey brother books and Alice Taylor is More Than a Princess did not disappoint. Alice was always one of my favorite characters. She was a child in all the books, but always spoke her mind. Not much has changed now that she is an adult 😂.
Title: The Run Option
Series: More Than A Game #3
Author: Annah Conwell
Publisher: Independently Published
Genre: Contemporary Romance, RomCom

My Review:
The Run Option is the third book in the More Than A Game series, but I think it could easily stand alone. The series is a group of friends, with each book focusing on a different friend.

I own several books by Jenny B. Jones on Kindle, and I can't believe this is the first time I have read one of her books. Save the Date is a fabulous introduction to this author, and I enjoyed the narration by Natalie Duke.

My Review:
Bram Baxter Marries the Wrong Sister is the first book I have read by Latisha Sexton, but it won't be my last. I wish the second book was already out because I was not ready for the story to end.

Series: Only Magic in the Building
Author: Courtney Walsh
Publisher: Independently Published
Genre: Contemporary Romance, RomCom,
Source: Kindle Unlimited
My Review:
The Cupid Chronicles by Courtney Walsh is the second book in the Only Magic in the Building series. It is a standalone book. These closed door, whimsical romance books are all set in the same historic building, which has a habit of playing matchmaker with its residents. There are light magical elements, but no spells, shifters, or dark magic.

I love Annah's books and was excited to listen to The Golden Goal. The narrators are okay, I didn't like the male narrator's female voice.

Trail of Threats by Jessica Patch is part of the Mountain Country K-9 Unit series, but can easily be read independently.

My Review:
If All Else Sails is a stand-alone novel by Emma St. Clair that will be released in August. Based on the side characters, it does have the potential to become a series.

Pixels and Paint is Kristi Ann Hunter's first contemporary romance and I am here for it! She also writes historical fiction with humor.
Series: Only Magic in the Building #1

Genre: Contemporary Romance, RomCom,

My Review:
I am starting to think Emma St. Clair could write anything and I would enjoy it. The Serendipity is the first book in a multi-author series Only Magic in the Building. I am not normally a "magic" person, but, again, Emma St. Clair, plus the fact that it wasn't talking animals, or flying people, it was more teleportation and enjoying the story for what it is.

Love, Lace, and Minor Alterations was V. Joy Palmer's debut novel. She has since written two more books about the side characters in this book.
Series: Sewing in SoCal #5
Author: Sarah Monzon
Publisher: Radiant Publications
Genre: Christian Fiction, Romcom, Contemporary Romance

My Review:
Betsy is the fifth (and final!) book in the Sewing in SoCal series by Sarah Monzon. While each book can be read as a stand-alone novel, I recommend reading them in order as the friends are in each book and the timeline continues to build. Otherwise, you will get minor spoilers from the earlier books.
