Ivywood Hollow: A Paranormal Romance Novella (Whispers of Ivywood)

April 5, 2026

This was a wonderful first novella from a new author and honestly it had me feeling giddy, sad, and basically everything in between. I couldn't really figure out if this was insta-love or how much time had passed between Tallie and Mason meeting to falling for each other, but also the heart wants what the heart wants and time means nothing to some people. I definitely enjoyed Cain and Tallie's friendship brewing and I can't wait for book 2 to come out. )

What an interesting prequel! I have so many questions after that ending. It was fast paced which is to be expected for a 86 page novella. I am not a big fan of insta love but since its an introduction before the next book i didn’t mind it much. I am curious to see how their relationship develops and the plot itself. )

I really enjoyed this novella and NEEED the second immediately! The insta love wasn't really my vibe but I still enjoyed it especially since this is just the first book. I really loved how emotional this book gets, ive luckily not dealt with a S.O.'s death yet but you can definitely feel the grief & guilt throughout this book. I read this in one day and im already attached to them and the main characters story's! Definitely will have to read book 2 whenever it releases :) )

I struggle to get into books and I binged this in less than two hours, WITH NOTES. Most commentary involved a lot of “AHHHHH!”s and “yeeeeees” every time something new was revealed. This book gives you all the emotions. Sadness, hope, infatuation, curiosity, anticipation, you name it. Already impatiently waiting to see what happens to Tallie in the next book. I have the kindle version and I’m gonna get the paperback so I can annotate :) )

This was such an incredible read. It's sexy, sweet, cozy & has that intensiveness you need to keep you wanting more. Joining the main characters as they learn to love again after experiencing such terrible loses in their lives was such a fresh approach to a romance. And i love a he falls first book. I can't wait for the next book(s) in this series! )
