Romance

Could the characters talk without cussing? Great story , I just feel like the cussing could be left out!

Family, Friends intertwined in each book.

I wish they used the actual person talk instead of the person in their readings. i.e. male voice speaking the females line. Super 🔥 talk in sex sceens.

Light and fun

These stories are fun with all of the characters connected in some way. I really enjoyed the series.

Nice series

A feel good group of books. Some I loved more but they were all enjoyable. Enjoyed on kindle and audible
