Queen B’s Decree: After reading Monster of the Dagger Mountains, I knew I had to have the next in the series. Monster of the Silver City is technically a second chance trope, but it’s the kind that I can’t ever get annoyed with. Veloria thinks Syrus left and never contacted her again…but sorry babe, he’s […]
Queen B’s Decree: I have been waiting for Cam and Dusty’s story—even though I know it’s a second chance trope. I was ready to be hurt. Wild and Wrangled alternates between current day and the past, when Dusty and Cam first met. I usually get frustrated with alternating timelines, I just want to know what […]
Queen B’s Decree: You know I am always apprehensive when starting a second chance trope, but Kendall Hale came in clutch and allayed all my fears. Camille and Killion meet while college students and spend a precious few months together before Killion breaks up with her, and it’s 14 years before they meet up again. […]
Queen B’s Decree: Charmer is the first in a newly edited and rereleased small town series. You may be wondering “Queen B, this is a second chance romance, what were you thinking when you signed up for this?” Well Dear Reader, Brighton Walsh has never let me down so I bravely read this dreaded trope. […]
Queen B’s Decree: The Last Guy On Earth is a second chance trope, so I was anxious while starting. Was there a big miscommunication? A dumb mistake? Thankfully this one felt natural. Jethro and Clay were 22 and 24 respectively when they last met, and their break-up was really just them both being young, dumb, […]
Queen B’s Decree: Only in Your Dreams had some great narrators and was an enjoyable listen. The story itself is a second chance trope (you know my thoughts on this) and this one was pretty ridiculous. Zac basically ghosts Melody ten years ago but is still 100% in love with her. But he waits four […]
Queen B’s Decree: You know, second chance trope can be dicey with me. Usually a miscommunication, or one character makes all the decisions for the couple. But Paisley…somehow Paisley wrote it in a way that it made sense and I couldn’t stop reading. Grief is a major theme for this entire series, and it’s done […]
Queen B’s Decree: Holidating is a collection of three different stories: Boyfriend, Blonde Date, and Crossroads. Only Crossroads is new to me, so this review will focus on it. Side note—Boyfriend was wonderful so do not skip it! Crossroads is one of those stories where it’s consistently the “right person, wrong time” trope. Damien and […]
Queen B’s Decree: I love a marriage of convenience trope—I love watching the characters fall, despite their intentions. Hate the One You’re With also had a second chance romance feel. You get to see how Em and Caleb began and fell for each other…then how they disastrously part. And naturally…it’s all a big misunderstanding. If […]
Queen B’s Decree: The dreaded second chance trope is prevalent in Billionaire Unforgettable, but it’s done so well. Tanner and Hannah actually communicate (🙌🏻HALLELUJAH🙌🏻) and while I always will grieve the time apart, it really felt like they grew to be better people. With relatively low stakes, Billionaire Unforgettable was mostly a story of two […]
