From bestselling author Kristy Marie comes, The Refiner, a steamy, enemies-to-lovers contemporary romance packed with all the feels and laughter your heart can take. Wealthy. Entitled. Monarch. Dr. Astor Potter was everything I despised in a man. It didn’t matter that he was my sister’s one-night stand or her closest colleague. I wasn’t charmed by his philanthropy or the way he made babies laugh using those ridiculous voices. Dr. Potter was cold, detached, and reeked of disdain. Nothing mattered to him. Not the messages I left. Or the tears I shed. Nothing brought him to life. Until my sister died. And I placed my newborn niece in his arms. Her father’s arms. He didn’t know about the baby. Neither did I. They say love can’t be born from hate and grief. I’m inclined to agree. But then he asked me to stay…



I knew going into this book that it was going to be a sob fest for me because of how the previous books have been, but this one was on a completely different level for me. Astor and Keagan’s love still has me thinking about them days later. They had captured me from the start and pulled my heart in every which way. Kristy wrote I can’t believe that I’m about to say this and the fact that it even crossed my mind is insane to me to think that Astor is my new book boyfriend in beating Theo? Is that even possible? AHH! Hands down top 2022 read.
