Mate

STEAMY! I loved it! I almost might like it more than the first one! This had all the tropes I like, plenty of steam and fun quirky characters. Werewolves, mates, unrequited feelings, a poor hybrid girl stuck in the middle, who coincidently just might be going through heat. What could possibly go wrong. It turns out, a lot. Love, love, love it!

Bride

Loved it. Slow burn, snarky paranormal creatures, marriage of convenience, steamy sex, and laugh out loud humor - made this a total win for me. Ali Hazelwood keeps proving, time and time again that she really can write romcoms. I have yet to read anything of hers that I haven't loved. Brid is about a vampyre forced to "marry" a were and stay in were land for a year. It's the beginning of a new alliance and Misery Lark always gets thrown to the wolves by her people (in this case, quite literally). Lowe Moreland is trying to do what is best for his people and if hat means he needs to wed a blood sucking leech then so be it. Little do they know how that they might actually enjoy being wedded to each other. Lots of fun. A quick and delightful read. 

Love on the Brain

I didn't know that romcoms in academia would be so fin - but I love Ali Hazelwood and I love reading about smart women. Love on the Brain is such a sweet enemies to lovers romance about two misunderstood scientists who have more in common then they imagine. It may have been a little predictable, but the banter was amazing, the slow burn was fantastic, and the ending was more than satisfying., I have got to read the rest of Ali Hazelwood's backlist! 

The Love Hypothesis

Why did I wait so long to read this?! I loved every second of this book. I thought Christina Lauren and Emily Henry were my favorite romance authors but Ali Hazelwood is a serious contender now! This romantic comedy is set in academia and is nerdy and fun without ever taking away from the romance or going to overboard. Olive is desperate for her best friend to date Jeremy, her ex, because those two are perfect for each other and Olive never even liked him. But her best friend, Anh, won't even consider it because she think Olive still has feelings for him. Olive concocts a fake dating scheme with hard ass professor and researcher, Dr. Carlsen, just to get Anh off her ass. And it works! But now Olive and Dr. Carlsen are in a weird position, how long to fake date for? Filled with all the tropes but done in such a new and fun way, this romance is a slow burn with plenty of spice. I ate it up. Give me more!
