#BookReview: Bound by Stars by @e_l_starling @entangledteen




A Love That Defies Gravity…and Fate

She never belonged in his world. He never thought he’d leave it.

When Weslie Fleet wins a golden ticket aboard the Boundless, humanity’s most opulent starliner, it’s a dream―and a danger. Raised in the dust-ridden ruins of Earth, she is thrust into the gleaming luxury of Mars’s elite, where every whispered word carries weight and every glance is a silent judgment. And none watch her closer than Jupiter, the golden boy of Mars’s high society, bound by duty, legacy, and a future he never chose.

Their reluctant partnership was supposed to be a one-off assignment. Instead, it becomes a battle of wills, a spark that ignites, and a love neither of them anticipated. But fate is as cruel as it is unpredictable, and when the Boundless veers off course, love won’t be enough to save them.

The ship is failing. The odds are impossible. And in the darkness of space, survival is the only thing that matters.

But some loves are worth defying the stars for.


#BookReview: A Goddess Unraveled (Olympus Rising, #1) by Morgan Rider



A steamy romantasy about a lovestruck demigoddess, unaware of her royal status, who makes a shocking discovery and attempts to flee to the underworld with Hades to escape Zeus's wrath.

Fans of spicy retellings of the Hades and Persephone myth will love this version, which puts its own unique twist on the tale.


Lexi Maxwell has grown up surrounded by wealth and privilege, but also by rules. The rare moments of freedom that Lexi enjoys come when she’s out riding, but even then there are strictures on where she can go—and with whom. 

When she arrives home for a weekend-long celebration in honor of her college graduation, Lexi is surprised by the number of eligible bachelors who vie for her attention. She doesn’t have a lot of experience with the opposite sex, but these loudmouth, arrogant boys fail to impress her. 

Enter the mysterious Luke Carrington. She is instantly drawn to him, but despite his charm and intelligence, her parents and godfather warn her to stay away from him. Lexi, however, cannot be deterred. 

When Lexi learns that her life has been one long lie, and the people claiming to be her family aren't who they say they are, she turns to Luke for solace. It doesn’t take long for him to earn her trust—and her heart—and suddenly Lexi is willing to follow him anywhere to keep him close. Even into the underworld . . .



#BookReview: Legend of the White Snake by @sherleeauthor



A snake spirit transforms into a boy and must hide his true identity after falling for a headstrong prince in this lush, romantic retelling of the traditional Chinese folktale.

When Prince Xian was a boy, a white snake bit his mother and condemned her to a slow, painful death. The only known cure is an elusive spirit pearl—or an antidote created from the rare white snake itself. Desperate and determined, Xian travels to the city of Changle, where an oracle predicted he would find and capture a white snake.

Seven years ago, Zhen, a white snake in the West Lake, consumed a coveted spirit pearl, which gave him special powers—including the ability to change into human form.

In Changle, Xian encounters an enigmatic but beautiful stable boy named Zhen. The two are immediately drawn to each other, but Zhen soon realizes that he is the white snake Xian is hunting. As their feelings grow deeper, will the truth about Zhen’s identity tear them apart?
