On social media and her blog, Kathryn shares her honest take on family life and living the Gospel, all while drinking Dr Pepper and cheering on the Texas Aggies.

I really enjoyed the other books in the series but I hated this one. It was flat. The third act breakup was, not believable. And zero character development.

Read this one in a day. I gotta say, I was pleasantly surprised. I don’t always fall in love with the characters or their development. But I fell hard for these. Charlie and Alice. Man. It felt like there was an actual story. And the romance was a ni ...more

I don’t know what I expected but I loved it in the best of ways. Raw and funny. Crushing and revealing. It was a story about love, but also the hard parts of life. It was hilarious in just the right spots and vulnerable in the rest. I loved it.

I happened to pick this one off the library shelf because I’m a sucker for a holiday story in April. What can I say?

It’s open door and spicy but that’s not what I want you to know.

First, what I didn’t like. Teddy baby and daddy. Not really a fan of those terms of affection but I can look past them. The reason they hated each other was legit I just wish the author

I read this one pretty quickly (it’s an easy page turner). I thought the scenario was a bit far-fetched but hello this is rom-com. Almost open door scenes but not quite. So, semi-spicy. I wanted to see a bit more character development of the twin sis ...more

Hannah’s books never take me long to read. This was a favorite of mine. Lots of depth to the characters and boy I did not see that ending coming.
