Five Fave Romance Books


Ta-Da! Check out my beautiful new blog look! It took me a few hours the other day but I finally got it the way I want it. (There may be a few extra changes here and there but nothing drastic). Maybe it's because of the new year or because I'm turning 21 or just because I felt like it, but I wanted to change things up. I wanted my blog to look a bit more "professional" or "grown-up" for lack of a better term. I want my blog to grow and change with me as the years go by.
Anyways, so that's my little reason for why the blog looks different. I hope you like it and that it's not too hard to navigate and find everything!

Since Valentine's Day is tomorrow a romance/lovey post was in order.
because no Valentine's post is complete with a Delena scene 

If a book doesn't have at least a tiny romance subplot, I will not read it. If there is no mention of romance or the hint of romance in the blurb of a book I most likely will not pick it up or buy it or even give it a chance. Yeah, I know... I'm really picky, but I know what I like and I made the decision a long time ago not to force myself to read a book. Life is too short to read books you don't enjoy and as a writer I feel its important to read books you enjoy and get inspiration from.

So, since I love romance so much here are my top five fave romance books (or romances in books):

  • A Court of Misty and Fury (the ACoTR series is my guilty pleasure OK?!) 
  • Twilight (cuz this series was what made me fall in love with vampires and romance in the first place). 
  • The Lux Series (the slow burn romance in this series is the best!) 
  • Alienated (I just really love alien/human romances) 
  • Everneath Series (This I read a looong time ago in my young teen years but it is still one of my favorite romance trilogies. The love triangle was so unique and fresh and I mean, it was a Persephone and Hades retelling so of course it was going to be good). 
(Yes, I'm aware these are all fantasy series. I haven't read a contemporary romance in a looong time). But just so you know that I have read some and do enjoy them (or did) here are the few contemporary romance books I've read over the years (all of them by the same author cuz I'm even pickier about my contemporary books): 

  • Sean Griswold's Head  by Lindsey Leavitt 
  • Going Vintage by Lindsey Leavitt 
  • The Chapel Wars by (you guessed it) Lindsey Leavitt 
Also, Valentine's Fun Fact about me: My favorite romance movie/story of all time is A Walk To Remember. I seriously love that movie so much!! It is the best and beautifully, perfectly sad.


What are you some of your favorite romance books/movies? :)

March-May Wrap Up!

 Happy Tuesday!  So I had a March/April blog post all written out and forgot to post it! So here's a March-May recap! How has the last three months gone for you? March ended up being a really good month. I turned 25 and had a really great birthday I got to hang out with friends, watch some new shows and am almost done with the Throne of Glass series. April and May have also been really good months for me. God's blessed me in so many amazing ways over the past three months.  I feel bad that this blog has fallen so to the wayside for me. I used to post every week and be so excited and now I just really struggle to keep this updated. I'm starting to think it might be time to let this blog post unless I somehow get renewed motivation/inspiration for it.  March-May Writing:  March was a very good writing month. I just reached 65K in Immortal Circus #3, and despite a few small hiccups, it's been flowing really well. I'm enjoying getting to draft a book after spending ...

Turning 25!

 Happy Thursday!  At the end of February I was looking back at my wrap ups on my Instagram and on here and it almost made me start crying because of how far I've come. It made me stop and think about where I started my 20's versus where I am now. So much as changed and so much of it for the better. Just looking back at the pictures and wrap ups I've done over the past year, I feel like I'm thriving. I'm at a place I honestly didn't think I'd ever get to and maybe that was just me being dramatic or living in on and off depression for so many years, but it makes me tear up and so thankful to see how far I've come since 20.  At 20 I had a best friend I thought I would still be best friends with when I turned 25. I had him and two other friends at 20 and that was it. I don't even remember what church we were at five years ago, but it wasn't the church we're at now and I know I definitely was not thriving there. I felt so behind everyone else my a...

A Goodbye to The Archive Series

Happy Friday!  The final book of The Archive Series comes out next Tuesday. This has been almost three years in the making and I don't know what to say to properly say goodbye.  I started this series in December 2019 with Golden Touch. The idea had been sparked by me watching The Road to El Dorado and having a desire to write a treasure hunt story for most of December. Little did I know that the story of a girl finding a boy with a Midas touch up in the mountains to help her family with their money issues would turn into a five book series and be a huge part of my life for the next few years. I also had no idea that that series would get me through one of the hardest years - 2020. Honestly, God knew what 2020 would be like and He knew I was going to need a story and characters that would make me happy, give me joy and focus on during that very hard year. And for me, that was Amaya and Darren and this whole series.  I poured a lot of myself and my story into Amaya and Darr...
