First off a big thank you to the publisher Bookouture, the author Harper Graham, and to Netgalley, for letting me continue on with my vist to the small town Maple Falls because in this one we get to see the coming together of our 2 main characters Zoe and Jackson ( brother to our main male character in book 2 ) , plus we get to go along with them as they go on a treasure hunt to look for a flower that may or may not exist anymore around their town. Thus book was humorous and had the right amount of spice in it , and let's not forget the choas that Zoe's mother caused, as well as choas that happened when ever Zoe and Jackson was together. Plus I loved the fact that Jackson loved Zoe for who she was even if at times she was a bit chaotic and that made me me laugh and smile because he didn't want to change her in anyway .


Their relationship is fake… The chemistry is not!


A small-town girl with the coziest flower shop and a secret crush. A dark, rugged veteran with scars only she can see. Could fake dating turn into happily ever after? Gilmore Girls + spice = 🔥


🪴☕✨


Zoe Hart is right where she belongs: in the small town of Maple Falls, running her snug flower shop filled with the scent of rain-soaked earth, dried herbs, and spiced tea. But her oldest friend (and secret crush) Jackson is back too. And most of all, she longs to be in his strong arms. So when her hopelessly romantic mom bets on them being Maple Falls’ Couple of the Year, Zoe finds herself fake-dating the friend-zoned guy she’s always wanted…


When Jackson returns from military service, even working on his llama sanctuary can’t heal him. But Zoe is the only person who can truly make him smile. He’d do anything for her… even pretend to be dating. There’s nothing fake about his feelings as he crushes his lips to hers. But there’s no way she’d really want a broken man like him, would she?


All eyes are on them as the town prepares to vote for Couple of the Year. But when they discover a grove carpeted with long-lost flowers that shimmer like moonlight, real sparks fly. Will their make-believe romance bloom into true love forever?


Snuggle in with a steaming mug and a novel that feels like a hug on a crisp day. This cozy small-town romance is brimming with steamy romance and heart-warming, feel-good charm. Perfect for fans of Gilmore Girls, Laurie Gilmore, Emily Henry, and all things cozy + spicy.

Would I recommend this series? Yes

Would I recommend this author? Yes

First off big thank to the publisher Second Sky, the author Luanne Bennett, 

as well as to Netgalley for letting me continue on with this series, and to my friend Alexis who has been doing a buddy read with me of this series since the very first book. I can't believe we're on book 5 already and have only one more to go before we say goodbye to these characters but that where re reads coming . What can I say about this book but that it had me laughing on moment, and screaming the next , and getting so mad at some of my favorite characters ( and yes I mean you Dog as well as you Samuel), and let's not talk about how much I dislike dog's girlfriend and the trouble she bought, and that other alpha, his definitely not a character you can love, there was so much more non stop action though out this one that I didn't want to put it but that true about the the other four books because once you start reading them you can't stop . 



Fire leaps from shops and homes all over town. Crimson is at war. And I’m the only one who can put out the flames.


When my friend Dog claimed a female from the brutal northern pack as his mate, he started a war.


I was furious with Dog at first. Then the northern wolves tried to destroy my bar in retaliation. This is my fight now, whether I like it or not.


To defeat them, we’ll need everyone in Crimson to stand side by side—vampires, wolves, and witches.


But the witches are distracted—struggling to contain an ancient evil hidden in their Victorian mansion. And the most powerful vampire in town won’t help me without a very good reason.


It will take more than magic to bring us all together. Can I protect my friends and unite the town, before Crimson is torn apart?


Perfect for fans of Kim Richardson, Charlaine Harris, and Patricia Briggs, the Charley Underwood series is a thrilling urban fantasy adventure packed with danger, magic, found family, and twisting standalone mysteries.
