Streams and Schemes - Rebecca Kinkade

-
Let me say first, Rebecca Kinkade is one of my favorite follows on Threads. She's just nice, and fun, and delightful, and I love her energy. So I was so excited to love this book so much. 
Streams and Schemes is a neighbors to lovers, super spicy, rom-com about a cam girl and a lawyer and their absolutely ADORABLE friends.  While I love the romance here, I love the found family aspect of this story more than just about anything. I want to be a part of the guys friend group, the girls friend group. I just want to be friends with every character in this book. 

Valeria is a cam girl who has been eye fucking her lawyer neighbor, Lander, for a year but refuses to approach him because her hard limit is ... no lawyers. Which I can respect. Standards are important, ladies. 

That of course lasts only a short while until it doesn't and they begin the sexy war of wills and sexy schemes transpire to see if they will give in to the heat between the two of them. And of course they do. And of course it's super hot. Like - wowza. Kinkade gets super kinky. 

There's a lot going on in this book with shitty fathers, learning about who you are, being true to yourself, learning who your real family is, and the oxford comma.  

Solid 4.75 stars out of 5. Can't wait to see what happens in book 2 of Streams and Schemes, Tips and Trysts when it comes out in October! (Happy Birthday to me!!!)

The Break Out - Madi Danielle

 HAPPY RELEASE DAY TO MADI DANIELLE AND THE BREAK OUT  the newest release in the Denver Dragons series.  I was *SO HONORED* to be an ARC reader for this book and I have read it twice. Once just to squeal and squee and enjoy once to make sure I did it justice when I wrote what I wanted to say about it.  Today when you get to meet Colton and Brynn there are a few things you should know.  He really is a grade-A jackhole. When Brynn says "It really is unfair that the universe decides to give a man that face and body, but his shitty personality" You will feel it with your whole chest along with her and yet ... you're still going to want him to ride you like he rides the mechanical bull.  Brynn is everything you expect her to be from getting pieces parts of her from Brents POV in The Hat Trick and so much more. You will want to protect her from being hurt by a fuck-boi but also know she is capable of doing that all her own - thank you very much.  So what ha...

On my Bookish BS

-
Hello there, nice to meet you, I am the writer of this BS. I am a 40 something, cis, bisexual, married female. I am a data analyst and former English major with too much time on her hands and a love of all things bookish.  I am in my romance, romantasy, smutty book era and I am loving it.  I'm doing my best to read more indie, queer, and minority authors. As much as I love SJM and Rebecca Yarros I know there's a whole world outside of that delicious mainstream bubble so ... yeah.  Some posts may be about just how incredible an author is. Some posts may be about tropes and themes that are awesome or really grind my gears. All posts will be book adjacent but may not be about just one book. Again, I am here for the vibes, I am on my bookish BS after all.  Hang out, meet some new authors, support them by reading something new with me, and enjoy. Or don't. This is really about me having an outlet. Cool? Cool.

Exile - Poppy Fitzgerald

 I was lucky enough to be an ARC reader for Exile by Poppy Fitzgerald and let me tell you... HOLY CRAP ON A CRACKER GO READ THIS NOW.  We met the FMC of this book, Serena, in Poppys first book, Astray, where she was a police officer attempting to help Eloise when she was being stalked. Serena said she understood... and here we find out why. Serena is working at the local coffee shop and Dominick, a local officer, comes in every day and there's flirting. When they finally go out on a date she is so taken by his generosity and up front kindness that she overlooks the red flags like a blind bull.  But why would she want to see the worst in people when she was living with a sick mother, severe traumatic brain injury from the car accident that killed her father, and barely scraping by to put herself through college. She was due something good and here was a protective, generous, cop who was bound to protect and serve who wanted to give her the world.  Until everything go...
