When they danced together or did car karaoke, I fell in love with the story. Here’s the breakdown: MMC/FMC- Ever and Paisley Genre- Contemporary Taco Romance Length- about 290 pages Heat- kisses and closed doors. Series? Y Safety? Y. Although there are characters who cheat, the MMC and FMC do not. Triggers- infertility struggles, mild violence, dysfunctional family FTW Tropes- Fake Marriage, Tacos, Sassy Grandma.

It fizzles rather than sizzles. Series? Y Safety? Y Triggers- Sex, implied violence, stalker Tropes- Opposites Attract, Rags to Riches, Instalove Mewsings Why I disliked this book- it was the least convincing Instalove I have ever read. I just don’t see it. With a novelette or novella, the author really has to sell the Instalove. The sex scenes were just not particularly hot as they were disjointed and more about control than lovin’. And they kept having the same conversation: FMC- You’re so rich and fancy, I don’t belong in your world. MMC- Yes you do. You are my world. [repeat] Honestly, if it wasn’t so short I’d have DNF’d. I normally like this author’s work, but this one wasn’t up to the usual standard.

The title makes me laugh every time I think about it. Premise- Zeke has a broken leg and Daisy is hired by his brother to help him.

This is the love story between Emmy and Kieran. I love Anna’s books, but to be honest, this one wasn’t my favorite. It was cute, and fast reading. ButThis is the love story between Emmy and Kieran. I love Anna’s books, but to be honest, this one wasn’t my favorite. It was cute, and fast reading. But there wasn’t a lot of character development. The couple had a one night stand five years ago. The story jumps to six months before the present. Not much action, and not a lot of interaction between the characters before they decided they were in love. The book fell short of a real love story. Three stars because it was cute and inoffensive. I received an advance review copy for free and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

I read Zeus (book one in the series) first, and this did a great job of filling in the backstory, although reading this book is not necessary to enjoy Zeus. The characters and events were engaging in this quick read. Minus one star for some minor grammar issues (that probably occurred because English is not the author’s first language). I intend to read the series as it comes out and would not hesitate to recommend this author, as I have read a few of her other works and enjoyed them.

Rulers like William the Conqueror, Henry VIII, and both queens Elizabeth and cultural icons like Shakespeare and the Beatles have been selected by the authors because of their impact on English history. I could see why each was chosen. I found the book to be well thought out, if a bit dry and unexciting at times. But it’s a solid survey of English historical figures.
