Becky ~ creator and owner
Becky is the creative mind behind a popular blog focused on romance books and coffee. She has a deep love for literature and has been an avid reader since childhood. Her earliest memories of reading include devouring the Babysitters Club series, eagerly awaiting each new release and losing herself in the adventures of the characters.
Despite not always being the most social kid, books provided Becky with a way to escape and create her own worlds. Her love for reading only grew as she got older, and she vividly remembers the moment she picked up her first “adult” book, The Conquest by Jude Deveraux. From that moment forward, she was hooked and never looked back.
While Becky enjoys reading all types of books, she has a particular fondness for the romance genre. In addition to her love for books, she spends her days working as a copy editor. She also beta reads, helping authors fine-tune their manuscripts before they are published. With her passion for literature and her sharp editing skills, Becky is a valuable resource for both readers and writers alike.

Jenni ~
Jenni is currently a SAHP to four young children. She is a life long student with a degrees in mechanical engineering and theology. She is presently pursuing a Master’s degree in Library and Information Science.
Jenni is a life long reader. From a young age she could be found with a book. School life has often dictated her reading choices to non-fiction in her adult years. However, she found solace in a return to fictional reading, when life began to get overwhelming. Books provide a healthy escape from reality and with romance the guarantee of an HEA is comforting.
She credits romance reading with making her a more compassionate and empathic person as one can read hundreds of different lives and views. She strongly believes that everyone deserves love and romance books should be a reflections of that.
When she is not reading, Jenni can be found hanging out with her family, binge watching TV with her husband, or planning her next tattoo.
Leah~
Leah is a reading obsessed mom who welcomes all the chaos that life can bring. By day, Leah is an office manager and bookkeeper as she has finally returned to the world of working outside the house and being a SAHM. By night, she is a developmental editor, proofreading, cover designer… jack of all trades in the bookish world.
There isn’t a book that she won’t try, but truly thrives in the romance world. She remembers those boxes of Harlequins that showed up at her home growing up and stealing them from the pile to devour them on the regular. When she isn’t reading, she is spending time with family (sometimes doing outdoor things that she isn’t fond of) but always making good memories. Her youngest has inherited her love of reading, so often times you will find the two of them sequestered in a room reading together.
