August 10, 2025 – My Sanctuary

I plan weddings for a living, I never planned to get married myself…

Making my clients’ wedding dreams come true is my calling, so when the would-be happy couple ask for help in escaping the press, I say yes… to fake marrying the best man.

Finn DeWitt is pure sin in a suit, a rich player as outrageously hot as he is infuriatingly annoying. We have a history—the one-night kind—but we’re utterly unsuited. How I wake next to him thoroughly honeymooned and truly married, I just don’t understand.

Things can’t possibly get any worse.

Oh, wait.…

I agreed to spend the next six days with him. Pretending to be in love. On an exclusive honeymoon resort. With only one bed.

It isn’t long before the lines blur between what’s real and what’s fake. But we’re not meant to be together. Things haven’t changed. Because I’ve always been a good girl and Finn is definitely No Saint.

About The Author

My Review

This is a sizzling, trope-filled romance with a fun twist on the fake-marriage storyline. Wedding planner Mila agrees to stage a faux wedding, only to find herself “marrying” Fin DeWitt—the enigmatic, irresistible man she hasn’t been able to forget after a past steamy encounter.

Their fake relationship quickly ignites into a believable, emotionally layered romance filled with sharp banter, undeniable chemistry, and slow-burn tension. While the plot hits some familiar romance beats, Donna Alam keeps things fresh with strong character development and a modern, flirty tone.

Packed with passion, humor, and just enough emotional punch, No Saint is a guilty-pleasure romance that doesn’t take itself too seriously—making it an ideal read for fans of witty, sexy escapism.

About The Author

My Review

This is a charming romance filled with personal growth, emotional depth, and the beauty of Provence. A sequel to Falling for Provence, this novel shifts focus to Laura, a driven real estate agent, and her unexpected romance with the carefree Noah Dufour. Their whirlwind relationship takes a dramatic turn when Laura discovers she’s pregnant, forcing both to confront their fears about love and commitment.

The novel’s vivid descriptions of Provence—its lavender fields, quaint villages, and delicious cuisine—create an immersive setting that contrasts beautifully with Laura’s emotional journey. While the romance follows some predictable paths, Laura’s transformation is engaging, and her chemistry with Noah remains compelling, if occasionally frustrating.

For fans of slow-burn romances with rich settings and heartfelt character growth, From Provence, With Love is an enjoyable, quick read perfect for a cozy afternoon.
