Four Stars I had almost given up on finding a new mafia romance series I really love (most of the ones I enjoy were written in the early 2010s), and then Rhenna Morgan gave us the NOLA Knights series! Sexy Russian ex-pats who protect New Orleans, have their own moral code, and fall head-over-heels for … Continue reading Review: Mine to Keep by Rhenna Morgan
Five Stars Rebecca Zanetti is one of those authors that hits it out of the part every single time. I shouldn't even be surprised at this point. GUARDIAN'S GRACE is Ms. Zanetti at her very best. Lovers of the series have been watching our hero and heroine simmer as secondary characters in previous books, and … Continue reading Review: Guardian’s Grace by Rebecca Zanetti
Five Stars Oh, hello, one of my favorite contemporary romances of 2020! PARADISE COVE snuck up on me.

Four Stars Let's be honest, I will read anything Nalini Singh writes with a huge smile on my face (when I'm not sobbing, or falling in love with a fictional character, etc.).

Four Stars Robyn Carr finally returning to her beloved series Virgin River was absolutely everything I wanted! I went into this book with the expectation of reading a rich, emotionally satisfying story, and that's exactly what I got.

So they know each other socially... until Cecelia's life takes a turn when she unexpectedly inherits the gambling establishment. … Continue reading Review: All Scot and Bothered by Kerrigan Byrne
Five Stars Gosh darn it! Cara Bastone has shattered all my longstanding, hard-won, romance preferences with her debut novel JUST A HEARTBEAT AWAY (debut, are you kidding me?? Skillz). Oh, you THINK you don't like widower/widow main characters because they make you sad? SIKE. You just assume you can't handle the main characters in a … Continue reading Review: Just a Heartbeat Away by Cara Bastone
Four Stars When I started this book, I really couldn't get into it. I was having a hard time connecting or sympathizing with the heroine, and I know that's a deal-breaker for me. So I put my ebook down for a few days and then picked up the audiobook. Thank goodness I gave this book … Continue reading Review: Say No More by Karen Rose
