Your Play to Call by Rachel LaBerge
Queen B’s Decree: If you’re a Swiftie like me, you’ve probably been following the story of Taylor’s and Travis’s romance. Your Play to Call is what I basically hope it would be. Willow is our musical FMC, playing the half-time show at the Super Bowl. There she meets MVP Tripp, when he helps her avoid […]
On the Map by Christina Hovland
Queen B’s Decree: The “went to Las Vegas and woke up married” is a micro trope that I can’t resist. Singer Maya and football player Sloan wake up married after their first meeting upon a night in Vegas, and when the news goes viral they decide to stay married for mutual professional benefit. The physical […]
Too Far by Abby Millsaps
Queen B’s Decree: Words cannot describe how much I adore this series. I’ve grown to love these characters so much. Too Far was the perfect mixture of action, angst, spice, and emotional connection. I love that both Joey’s relationship with each of her men deepens, as well as the relationship between the men themselves. I […]
Too Fast by Abby Millsaps
Queen B’s Decree: I’ve been waiting for the next in the Boys of Lake Chapel series and Abby Millsaps definitely delivered.

And Josephine […]

Each one was different and had a distinct feel. Locke, who has to earn back her affections; Kylian, who becomes her safe space; Decker, […]
Home Field Advantage by Dahlia Adler
Queen B’s Decree: I’m really digging the diversity in romance and YA books this year so far. Home Field Advantage is the story of in-the-closet cheerleader Amber and the new female quarterback, Jack. I thought the story really showcased the misogyny and homophobia that can come from a small, southern town. Jack moved specifically for […]
Say You Swear by Meagan Brandy
Queen B’s Decree: I feel exceptionally torn on my feelings about Say You Swear. On one hand, Say You Swear contains one of the best book boyfriends I’ve read about recently and the friends-to-lovers trope was done so well. On the other hand, it was long and drawn out with some OTT forced angst that […]
