 Fall I want by Lyra Parish




This book pulled me in right away—it started strong, with a fun, flirty energy that made it easy to root for the characters. I’m not usually someone who gravitates toward instalove, but this premise felt fresh: a literal dream guy, a sister’s prophecy, and a connection that walks the line between fate and fantasy. I really loved how unique that setup was, and it made me want to see how things unfolded.

Zane and Autumn had undeniable chemistry, and their banter had me laughing out loud more than once. Their dynamic was playful and charming, and even though their relationship progressed quickly, it didn’t feel forced in the beginning. Lyra Parish did a great job building up tension and creating that slow-burn satisfaction—even in a fast-paced romance.

But around the halfway, the story lost the plot. It felt like they got together and that was it.

Still, there’s a lot to love here. Fall I Want is sweet, steamy, and delightfully whimsical—a fun romance with a dreamy twist. I’d absolutely recommend it to fans of swoony, fate-driven love stories, with the note that the ending does lose a bit of steam.

 King Maximilianus by P.E. Nylund One of the things that stood out to me most about this book was how refreshingly uncluttered it felt. So many stories in this genre tend to get bogged down with repetitive dialogue or overly drawn-out scenes, but this one moved with a clean, confident pace. I never felt like I was treading the same ground twice, which made the reading experience feel smooth, intentional, and surprisingly refreshing. I’ve always had a deep respect for indie authors. Putting your work out into the world, especially in a space as competitive and vocal as the shifter genre, takes serious guts. And this author did more than just show up, they carved out a niche. The choice to have the male lead narrate the story felt bold and unexpected, and it really worked. It gave the narrative a fresh angle I don’t often see in paranormal romance, and I appreciated that risk. It’s also clear that the author made a genuine effort to flesh out each character, not just the leads, ...

 Unseen by Christy Healy In Éire, 1082, myth and fate collide. The Snow, The Crow, & The Blood is a haunting retelling of a Donegal folktale, and Healy breathes powerful new life into it. At its heart is an epic and tragic love story between Riona and Conor—one tested from the very beginning by grief, sacrifice, and the grip of destiny. Riona, having lost her entire family, is forced into a perilous deal when she confronts Donn, the shadowy lord of death who governs Magh—the land where mortal souls linger before passing on. He threatens her daughter’s life and demands her servitude. But Riona is no ordinary woman. She carries the blood of gods, and as her powers awaken, she must make devastating choices that blur the lines between love, survival, and vengeance.

 A Heart of Crimson Flames by A.K. Mulford Returning to the world of A Heart of Crimson Flames felt like slipping into something familiar and comforting, yet still full of surprises. This installment delivered a satisfying blend of rich magic, swoo ny romance, and layered political intrigue that kept me engaged from start to finish. One of the most commendable aspects of the book is its commitment to inclusivity—there’s such thoughtful and authentic representation woven throughout, and it was genuinely refreshing to see characters who reflect a broad spectrum of identities, backgrounds, and experiences. It made the story feel more grounded, more human, and ultimately more powerful. The relationships between characters—both romantic and platonic—brought a lot of warmth to the story. There are some truly tender, heart-melting moments that had me grinning, as well as a few unexpected twists that added tension and kept me on my toes. That said, I did feel like the pacing could have bee...
