Queen B’s Decree: With a story that focuses a great deal on personal growth, Slapshot was surprisingly low on the angst factor. Kaitlin is a bit of a “poor little rich girl,” stuck at Moo U to make up for past transgressions and bad decisions. Her dad is a hockey legend, so she’s not happy […]
Queen B’s Decree: This should be in the dictionary for “enemies-to-lovers” trope. Hatfield and McCoy. Romeo and Juliet. Add to that Adler and Todd. Since birth, Maggie Todd and Tate Adler have hated each others families…for unknown reasons. It started with their grandfathers and has been passed down through each generation, continuing with Maggie and […]
Queen B’s Decree: I’ve got a soft spot for characters that are neurodivergent or a little different. Cheyenne’s mother was an addict during her pregnancy and childhood, and it left her struggling with a hyperactivity disorder. It’s not until she is diagnosed and medicated that she is able to better handle her disorder. Cutler is […]
Queen B’s Decree: I’m still not sure what I just read. I thought this was supposed to be a vague Pride and Prejudice retelling, but I couldn’t tell you how the plots were connected…at all. Hara is a reporter who won a writing contest where the prize is interviewing this “reclusive” basketball player. 1) this […]
Queen B’s Decree: Bess was an interesting character. She has a color-coded binder containing her five-year plan. I just…feel that, pretty hard. But when Tank walks back into her life, she just can’t resist him. He’s a big enough force that she deviates from the plan. Bess and Tank had a fling nine years ago; […]
Queen B’s Decree: Holding on to Forever was well written – it didn’t even feel like there was two authors; it flowed so consistently. It was emotional and angsty and intense. That being said, I didn’t really connect with either Emily or Adam. Emily seemed immature and weak. I tried to be sympathetic because her […]
Queen B’s Decree: This was like a unicorn for me. Nothing But Trouble was well written, had great characters, and the right amount of both sexiness and angst. Alice was just a great Heroine. Strong, but sweet. And Reagan…cocky, but had real depth. Fun banter and light hearted camaraderie, yet deep enough to invoke a […]
The Hardest Route, an all-new emotional and romantic standalone from A.S. Teague is available now! My friends used to tell me ‘What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.’ Clearly, they lied because a few months later, I found out my one-night stand was pregnant. I couldn’t handle a baby. I was Griffin Rockwell, the best […]
Queen B’s Decree: I’ve been looking forward to Jake and Brenna’s story since I finished The Chase. What’s not to like? Enemies-to-lovers, fake relationship that turns real, opposing teams? Need I go on? The short and long of it is this: Brenna is bombing at an interview for an internship (due to the misogyny displayed […]
Queen B’s Decree: I think this is the best of the series yet. I have no complaints! Can it be true?? Battle of the Bulge has Mimi Jean’s characteristic humor, yet it’s nearly the perfect level. Doesn’t go too over the top and I found myself laughing literally out loud at some points. Great mix […]
