Review: Get a Life Chloe Brown by Talia Hibbert

April 25, 20203 Comments

Five Stars I had high expectations diving into GET A LIFE, CHLOE BROWN, and I happy to report, I absolutely LOVED the book! I grinned, laughed, and felt all the feels while reading. Chloe and Red felt fresh and new and achingly familiar at the same time. Both characters were so wholly unique and well … Continue reading Review: Get a Life Chloe Brown by Talia Hibbert

Review: His to Defend by Rhenna Morgan

April 21, 2020Leave a comment

Four Stars I didn't know I needed a semi-dark mafia romance set in New Orleans in my life, but luckily, Rhenna Morgan knew! HIS TO DEFEND was a BLAST to read! The first book in a new series, the book follows a Russian mafia boss hero and he helps the single mom/local NOLA darling after … Continue reading Review: His to Defend by Rhenna Morgan

Review: Sweet Talkin’ Lover by Tracey Livesay

April 16, 2020April 16, 2020Leave a comment

Four Stars Going into this book, I thought it was just going to be another small-town romance. Enjoyable, but nothing too special. Well, I didn't take into consideration what a fantastic author can do with a well-used plotline. Tracey Livesay made the "big city girl coming to the small town" trope seem more fun and … Continue reading Review: Sweet Talkin’ Lover by Tracey Livesay

Review: From Blood and Ash by Jennifer L. Armentrout

April 15, 20202 Comments

Four Stars Well, this book was an absolute delight! I could barely put it down. I found myself sneaking pages on lunch breaks and getting up early to get a few chapters in. All readers know, that's the sign of an excellent book! As a self-proclaimed romance aficionado, I am ashamed to say that this … Continue reading Review: From Blood and Ash by Jennifer L. Armentrout

Review: Marriage on Madison Avenue by Lauren Layne

April 14, 2020Leave a comment

Four Stars This book was like drinking a glass of champagne, bubbly, fun and intoxicating. Friends to lovers is a difficult challenge for most authors, especially when the main characters both have each other as firmly in the "friend-zone" as Audrey and Clarke. Throughout the first two books, readers witnessed their easy banter and genuine … Continue reading Review: Marriage on Madison Avenue by Lauren Layne

Review: Love on Lexington Avenue by Lauren Layne

April 13, 2020Leave a comment

4.5 Stars A gruff and grumpy hero jaded to love and a widow who is still dealing with the complicated aftermath of her crappy husband's death, both stuck together through a home renovation project in NYC?? Um. Yes please. I've read almost every single book Lauren Layne has ever written and she still manages to … Continue reading Review: Love on Lexington Avenue by Lauren Layne

Review: Vendetta Road by Christine Feehan

April 9, 2020Leave a comment

Five Stars I have read almost every single Christine Feehan novel and I can definitively say, this is her most erotic book to date, and she has written some very sexy ones in her time. Whew! That said, this book won't be for everyone. It's very low angst and leans heavily on instalove. As an … Continue reading Review: Vendetta Road by Christine Feehan

Review: Well Met by Jen DeLuca

April 6, 20201 Comment

Five Stars Well, I am kicking myself. I'm kicking myself, because I absolutely loved WELL MET by Jen DeLuca and I waited WAY too long to read this book. I mean COME ON, some of my favorite memories are going to the Ohio Renaissance Festival with my aunts. We always went on Roman takeover day … Continue reading Review: Well Met by Jen DeLuca

Review: The Happy Ever After Playlist by Abby Jimenez

April 3, 2020April 3, 20204 Comments

3.5 Stars I wasn't planning on reading THE HAPPY EVER AFTER PLAYLIST. While I respect how many devoted fans Abby Jimenez has, her debut novel, THE FRIEND ZONE, did not work for me. I was ready to pass on her sophomore novel when I generously received a complimentary audiobook listening copy from Libro.fm. I figured … Continue reading Review: The Happy Ever After Playlist by Abby Jimenez

Review: The Deception by Kat Martin

March 29, 2020Leave a comment

Four Stars I have to say, after a subpar experience with the first two Kat Martin books I picked up, I was worried about reading THE DECEPTION. I let it sit on my kindle for a while and eventually decided to pick up the audiobook, and boy am I glad I did! While the book … Continue reading Review: The Deception by Kat Martin

About Romance Reader

Hi Romance Peeps! My name is Teresa and I am a self-proclaimed romance aficionado with a BA in English and PR. My “real” job involves a grab bag of communications and community relations for a large nonprofit in the DC area. I probably read 5-7 romance novels a week. I take grave exception to people calling romance novels “smut” or “trash”. My #1 romance novel of all time forever and ever amen is “Dreaming of You” by Queen Lisa Kleypas. Read my posts to learn more about me, but mostly to hear my thoughts about romance novels new and old. Love you all!
