January 2026 Reading List

Sweet age gap love story…

Daniella is the much younger sister of Matteo’s best friend and she should be off limits. When Daniela makes the mistake of rushing to marry the wrong guy, she ends up in a situation that could cost her her life. When Matteo comes to the rescue, they reconnect, and he just can’t seem to keep himself away from her. He’s ready to protect her at all costs. The more time they spend together, the closer they get. She’s a sweet and innocent curvy girl and he’s her tatted up fighter. Someone is out to get their family and he’ll do whatever it takes to protect those he loves, and now that includes Daniella.

These two are so cute and sweet together, but also hot and steamy. And I love that we get the setup for what comes next in this world.

Journey of self discovery…

For this second installment in the series, it sort of feels like we’re going on a journey of self-discovery, right alongside Charlie. She’s figuring out what she needs to do, what she’s made of, and how far she is willing to go to protect those she loves. Charlie has a new motto and a mission. Throughout it all she has her team of friends and family backing her up. She’s also fighting her feelings for Elias, after everything that happened in book one. This book has lots of mystery, adventure, excitement, plus twists and turns that gets you excited for the next book in the series.

Her Valentine men…

Something happens that drives Taylor to return home to the step family she ran from before. She’s ready to ask for their help even if it means facing the taboo feelings she has for them. There’s just something about her stepfather and his sons – one biological and one not – that she can’t resist. And now that they have her back, they won’t be letting her go again.

Get ready for all the taboo spice mixed with the danger that comes with a motorcycle club run by the hot Valentine men.

Funny, sassy, and little bit crazy…

I absolutely loved these two. They’re are quite the dynamic duo. Maddox and Tessa were most definitely made for each other. Theirs is a sort of love / hate scenario with no real hate involved underneath it all.

A couple years ago Tessa called on Maddox in her time of need, and it was the perfect call to make. The only problem was Maddox held it over her in a way to keep her close. Maddox is crazy and fun, loyal and protective. And Tessa is a sassy little badass. She doesn’t want to have to choose between her family and the Noires. Only the Noires have been a better family to her than her biological one ever was.

Maddox and Tess together are perfection. And with the Noires she finally gets the loving and loyal family she deserves. I love this series so much, and I can’t wait for the next book.
