BFF K’s Recommended Reading List

I didn’t list anything here that I didn’t read and that I didn’t like. Some are better than others, but none of them are a waste of time. I’ll link to reviews as I add them. The names in ( ) are the main characters. After awhile, everything started running together, so I put character names to help me remember the stories! Amazon links coming soon!

Heather Lyons

A Matter of Fate, A Matter of Heart, Matter of Truth, Matter of Forever – Heather Lyons (Chloe, Jonah, Kellan)

The Matter of Fate Series is one of my favorite book series ever, and that’s saying something! I love everything about it! The series is like a combination of Twilight/Harry Potter/Hunger Games/Beautiful Creatures – all the best parts of each of those. There’s magic and a love triangle and the characters grow and change throughout the series. Each book is better than the one before!!!
Beyond Fate is a novella to read after MOF and MOH.

This was probably the best ‘steamy series’ I’ve read since Fifty Shades of Grey!

 

Only single reads of these authors so far:

Caught Up in Us – Lauren Blakely (Kat Harper and Bryan, rekindled romance with grad school mentor) – quick and predictable

Carter Reed – Tijan (Emma and Carter) Mafia ties, alpha male

Very Bad Things – Ilsa Madden-Mills (Nora and Leo)

Real – Katy Evans (Remy & Brooke) 1st in a series

More romance than 50, but still fun reads:

The Marriage Bargain – Jennifer Probst

Geoducks are for lovers – Daisy Prescott (Maggie & Gil)
The Fault in Our Stars – John Green (Gus & Hazel) 2 HS kids with cancer meet at a support group

Crazy 50-ish stuff: But, really short – buy the whole series – you can ready section 1 in less than an hour, I haven’t gotten the rest of them…..Anything He Wants, Dominated by the Billionaire, Sara Fawkes
