Sub-Genre
Cowboys of California, Book #2
(Review of Cowboys of California, Book #1)
Heat Factor: The characters talk freely and often but the action itself is not so lengthy or involved
Character Chemistry: Very natural and low key
Plot: Cinderella but with an Oscar-winning actor as the prince and a terrible employer as the steps
Overall: It wasn’t really a page turner, but it was very cozy
A Little Village Novella
Heat Factor: Sweet little kisses
Character Chemistry: They actually interact very little, but the way the story is told made me really want this for them
Plot: Man has had a secret crush on his former physiotherapist since physiotherapy started, and it gets blown wide open when his friend plays an April Fool prank on him
Overall: Some people might be super stressed by this prank, but I thought this story was ADORABLE
Once Upon a Con, Book #1
Heat Factor: Extremely chaste
Character Chemistry: They’re so texty texty cute. In person…¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Plot: Cinderella + You’ve Got Mail + fandoms
Overall: I’m not sure the “Aww” outweighs my rage at nearly every single character’s behavior
True Colors, Book #1
Heat Factor: Feels like closed door, even though it’s technically not
Character Chemistry: These two felt super wholesome and super young
Plot: New adults road trip to a gaming convention tournament. ONLY ONE CAN WIN.
Overall: These young men made me feel a little old with all their, “What am I going to do with my life!?” crises.

Heat Factor: Sealed with a kiss
Character Chemistry: Nothing special, though our hero is extremely respectful
Plot: I am developing a crush on my roommate! Also, my job is toxic.
