Book 987: A Cowboy’s Home (Montana #3) – R.J. Scott

Geoff W

Book cover of "A Cowboy's Home" with Amazon Affiliate linkI wasn’t too surprised with this novel continuing the trend of being set in the West on a ranch, but not necessarily being a Western Romance, but it opened a lot darker than I thought it would! I’m talking full-on fight scenes and murder for survival! And there’s nothing wrong with that Scott jumped right in and grabbed my attention and kept me hooked for the first half of the novel.

A Cowboy’s Home tells us the story of Ethan’s missing brother, Justin, and where he’s been ever since his disappearance. It also tells the story of Sam, the mouthy flirty cook at Crooked Tree Ranch.

Book 926: Khabaar – Madhushree Ghosh

Geoff W

Book cover of "Khabaar" with Amazon Affiliate linkWhen the publicist reached out to me about this one, I wasn’t sure I had the capacity, but it was five months before it was published so I figured I’d make time!*

That sort of happened. Khabaar was on my TBR pile nonstop from February onward but between all the knitting I was doing and getting distracted by EVERY MM romance novel possible, I kept putting it off to my detriment.

Book 919: Dessert Can Save the World – Christina Tosi

Geoff W

Book cover of "Dessert Can Save the World" with Amazon Affiliate linkLate last year, someone from Harmony Books reached out about Dessert can Save the World by Christina Tosi having seen I read David Chang’s memoir Eat a Peach.* Knowing that Tosi’s Milk Bar (which is freakin’ delicious and I had to resist trekking over to Harvard Square multiple times while reading this) started as an offshoot of one of Chang’s restaurants I thought why not! I’m glad I didn’t start reading it earlier because I devoured it (pun 100% intended).

Book 898: Trust with a Chaser (Rainbow Cove #1) – Annabeth Albert

Geoff W

Book cover of "Trust with a Chaser" with Amazon Affiliate linkOh, Annabeth Albert, how I love thee . . . seriously though, I should just write an ode to here and be done with my reviews. I say this even though there are some of her earlier books that aren’t as well written as her more recent books, where she’s really coming into her own, they’re still REALLY good books.

This is one of those examples even though it’s not that old. Originally published in 2017, it just doesn’t have quite the polish as her more recent series even though it has a lot of the things that make her works great.

Book 897: If You Love Something – Jayce Ellis

Geoff W

Book cover of "If You Love Something" with Amazon Affiliate linkI came across this while perusing NetGalley looking for new MM Romance authors to expand my repertoire and diversity reading.*

Not going to lie though, I mostly chose this one because of the illustrated cover’s whimsical balloon and because I thought the author was a man! I’ve only read a few MM Romances by men, but when I finished the novel I found out Jayce was a woman, which didn’t affect my opinions but was like DAMN.
