When I think of February, I think of Valentine’s Day and love and romance.  Gag, I know. (Ashley wants to point out that Galentine’s Day is also a legitimate and perfectly reasonable addition to February’s love-fest where female friendships are celebrated for the empowering, nuanced relationships that they are.) But still, we wanted to bring you something we loved in February out of respect for the general season.  We didn’t want to be super theme-focused after Jane in January, but we do like order, so connection was required.  We considered many, many, different authors, titles, and other aspects of love.  As we were discussing potential directions, we also started discussing Kindle Unlimited titles we really wanted to dig into, and then, magically, the decision became very clear about what we needed to bring you in February, and it fits both Valentine’s and Galentine’s!  

Here at Heart.Wants.Books, we love a good romance novel and we love stories of empowering female friendships.  We bonded over open door romance novels eons ago, and continue to do so regularly. So, when one of our new (to us) beloved romance novel authors (Pippa Grant, of 2019 mutual favorite Stud in the Stacks) announced a new project with three other authors to do a romantic comedy novel series, we were in (and it didn’t hurt Nikki had also already read and loved three novels by Claire Kingsley – the Book Boyfriends Trilogy).  This new project came out in the Fall of 2019 and is called the Bluewater Billionaires.

What we have is four romance authors, each writing one novel in a series of four books, about a group of four billionaires who are all best friends, all female, and all live in the same fictional community together in Miami, FL.  There is language, there is snark, and there are bedroom scenes. (Please do not read these books if any of the above is a no-go for you.)

So, for the next few weeks, we’ll be bringing you our commentary on Lucy Score’s The Price of Scandal, Claire Kingsley’s The Mogul and the Muscle, Kathryn Nolan’s Wild Open Hearts, and Pippa Grant’s Crazy for Loving You, as well as some more information about  Kindle Unlimited and what happens when two voracious readers happen upon plan to purchase subscriptions at the same time.

Nota Bene: We’d love for you to read along with us.  These books are a series, and we’ll be following that order, which is listed above.
