I loved this book! Although, I feel like it could’ve been longer and it definitely would have the potential at being a 5 star!

I want to thank Netgalley and the author for gifting me the ebook. A good women's fiction novel. Recommend

This book was told in a few different point of views and this was easy to get through. I enjoyed the beautiful description of Grenada. But I felt that the characters were a bit bland, maybe underdeveloped. Even when there was so much going on. This miss the mark for me. But I can definitely see others enjoying this one




Thank you NetGalley and BooksGoSocial for this E-book for an honest review.

I want more! This book needs to be longer or I need a sequel, pronto.

Anya Stassly’s Spice of Love caught me off guard. If I am being honest, the cover and title made me think this would be nothing more than a generic love story that I would soon forget. However, I was shocked to find it was anything but.

I love the concept of setting the story during a small destination wedding in the Caribbean. This forced proximity allowed for the isolated characters to interact with those they might never have otherwise. As a result, chaos ensues!

The three love stories unfolding simultaneously was a nice change. The odds were in the reader’s favor that they would connect with at least one couple. I was lucky enough to enjoy all three!

Another feature I especially enjoyed was the chapters being told from alternating perspectives. The four main characters (Angelina, Kai, Gretchen, and Mitchel) took turns narrating. The idea of having one event being told by four different people advanced the storyline brilliantly. It allowed the reader to gain insight into the characters in a short amount of time. Which makes sense since the story is all happening in a limited timeframe.

My one bone to pick was how the story jumped ahead seven months and then ended abruptly. I felt we could have spent much more time with the characters after the climax. For me, it left something to be desired and many questions about what happens next?

Fingers crossed Stassly will turn this into a series so that I can follow along as the six main characters lives continue to unfold. If not, she is simply mean! Lol

Special thanks to Netgalley.com and BooksGoSocial for allowing me to read this book in exchange for my honest feedback.

I was pretty close to DNF this book but I stuck it out.. Spice of Love has the potential to be a pretty good read but it's not quite at that level yet. I'd recommend adding some actual spice in order for the book to fit its title. I found the characters to be underdeveloped and rather cliche. Plus there's a lot going on in this book and while I liked the multiple perspectives POV, I found the whole thing just kind of boring. It wasn't really keeping my attention. Kind of like a dramatic soap opera I would turn on for background noise. I think each couple's POV should be separated into 3 different books and expanded on.

A fun, engaging read about three school time friends attending a wedding in Grenada. Each one dealing with issues in their lives - romantic and real-life.
Each chapter is told from another character's perspective - so pay attention to chapter headings or else you will get seriously confused.
A fast read that is perfect for relaxing with.
Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for allowing me to read this book.

A lovely book with great characters, easy, and enjoyable read!
Thanks to NetGalley for a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

A quick, easy and light-hearted read. It was well written with a good storyline and well developed charcaters. I read it in one very short sitting.

Thank you NetGalley, Anya Stassiy and BooksGoSocial for the copy of Spice of Love. This is my personal review.
A romance story set in a beautiful location is what should be a book that warms my heart. I liked the story but was left feeling like the there should be more in it. It is told in several POV and for me I wanted the story to blend a little better.
It was a pleasant book to read with characters I wanted to like more than I did.

Two women in their mid-to-late twenties look to take a break from their semi-messed up personal lives at the destination wedding of their best friend in Grenada and we are introduced to the people who add colour to their world and outlook.

The novel is said in alternating POVs of four main protagonists and reads like a run-of-the-mill plot, it was a breeze to get through in all honesty. I enjoyed reading about Grenada and the sunny locales but that was all that the book had going for itself. The characters were very temperamental and the conflicts added midway seemed pretty convoluted to me. Certain exchanges also felt a tad too over the top, for example:

"'Hey!' Kai nudges me. 'I got your email with the book. I started reading it already. Great first page. I had to force myself to stop, that's why I was late.' Goosebumps erupt on my skin in the warmth of the evening air."

I loved the setting and the characters in this book, which felt very much like being on a holiday in the sun. I was embraced by the warmth of the story, and I cared deeply about the main characters. Personally, I found the ending a bit rushed, and not as satisfying as the rest of the book, but overall this was a very pleasurable reading experience.
