Plot 3/5:
Slow burn, friends to lovers, closed door romance. And when I say slow burn, we’re talking the slowest. This story is about a girl and a guy who live in a small town in Colorado, have known each other since they were little kids, and are extremely close best friends.

Summer Romance by Annabel Monaghan
This book started out very slow for me, I had a hard time getting into it. The first three chapters felt slower than molasses in January, then of a sudden it's like you're on the freeway and you realize that your brakes don't work. Ok, not that extreme
Summertime Punchline by Betty Corrello

How To Plot A Payback by Melissa Ferguson
This is my first time reading a Melissa Ferguson novel. Plot: In this book, two Brits who grew up together end up working on the same t.v. show in Hollywood.
Love & Chickens by Kasey Morris
This is definitely unlike any book I've ever read. A romance novel heavily threaded with chickens. I didn't know what to expect when I started reading this and I didn't have super high hopes but I ended up absolutely loving this book.
Switched (Ghosted #2) by Sarah Ready
Another beautifully written novel by Sarah Ready. I am unbelievably excited to be reading this book because I loved the first one so SO much. If you haven't read book 1, go read it. Not because you need to read it to understand the plot of this book but because it's so f*cking GOOD.
Not In the Plan by Dana Hawkins
Charlie is a struggling coffee shop owner and Mack is a writer struggling to finish her next novel and meet an impending deadline. When Mack wanders into Charlie's coffee shop, she is struck with inspiration and keeps coming back every day for a visit with her muse.
Mostly Loathing You (Just Peachy #2) by Nicole Ryan
This is my first Nicole Ryan novel and an ARC from NetGalley. While this is book #2 in the Just Peachy series, it can be read as a standalone. This book is in the vein of the enemies to lovers trope but these two MC's practically HATE each other.
