Why Did I Read? It’s a Rachel Harris book! And the fake relationship is one of my favorite tropes. This was my first BEA read. 🙂 My Thoughts: How does Rachel Harris do it? How??

(It got pretty crazy, but trust me, it was worth it!) Kelsea Glynn has lived in hiding her entire life and now that she’s turned 19, her dead Queen mother’s guard shows up to take her back to her throne. Her […]
