I dont think ive read the last one ..let me check the pg count ..only want a shortish one
Think its a bit long for me amanda See what the others say but im happy to stick to V & V
I have to read a 4 in series so donβt mind either of yours or V&V
I'm okay with V&V or Unicorn omegas. Men from manhatton are the first books too short and Amanda's Forbidden Desires got already ruled out, right?
There's also this newish series with each book written by a different author so standalones (would just have to make sure page counts are good as I'm pretty sure they're all fairly short)https://www.goodreads.com/series/3758...
Have you read any as there a lot of new authors not come across before
I've read one and it was a 3.5 star which is my most given rating lol. It's mostly new to me authors as well.
Ok , unless trio is dead set against it , im going to sugguest we stick to V & V ( V will come in handy for Wheel ) and i want to plan my books π
I was so sad at first that I missed out on signing up for Wheel, but when I got sick and totally overwhelmed, I was glad. Ah well.Yes, V&V is fine - you guys can always pick if I don't check in early enough - I spent the whole day reading my final Monsters book.

Booklover by J.E. Birk
250 pages
How it Fits: Vino & Veritas series
Read: 11 Nov
Rating: 4 Stars
Review: This was a surprisingly complex and enjoyable story. I liked all the family drama. There's tons of college guy sex, of course, but the friendships built were well done.
The audio is nicely performed by Tim Page and Cooper North.

Undercover by Eliot Grayson
200 Pages
How it qualifies: #4 in selected series
Date Read: 11/10
Rating: 4 Stars
Review: Eliot delivered as she always does with humor and snark, but also a great plot like and a wonderful romance. I really donβt think anyone does the grumpy one and the sunshine one quite like Grayson and I just adored the MCs this time around. The steam is slow to build, which absolutely makes sense with the storyline, but once itβs there itβs definitely fire. Thereβs a sense of βoh no, whenβs it going to go wrongβ but luckily Grayson saves the day and delivers a very satisfying HEA by the end.
I havent started my book yet girls ..will try updating everything tonight

Dragon's Mate by Nora Phoenix
332 Pages
How it qualifies: Irresistible Dragons 1
Date Read: 11/16
Rating: 3 Stars
Review: This author is super hit or miss for me and this one was more of a miss. Very cheesy, not much development, and too many names thrown out in the beginning. There is a character list, but I don't like having to keep flipping back to it while reading.
