Four Stars Consider me thoroughly charmed! Talia Hibbert has done it once again. By "it," I mean create a beautiful and diverse cast of characters that make my heart squeeze with happiness. This friends to lovers // fake dating story was just what I needed. Danika Brown is the snarky, bisexual queen of my dreams, … Continue reading Review: Take a Hint, Dani Brown by Talia Hibbert
Three Stars HIDDEN was my first Laura Griffin novel, which is surprising because I love romantic suspense, and she has a solid back list! When I saw this was the first book in a new series, I figured this was as good of a place as any to dive in. While I ended up enjoying … Continue reading Review: Hidden by Laura Griffin
2.5 Stars The Maximum Security series has been very hit or miss for me. THE ULTIMATE BETRAYAL has broken that trend, mostly because this was the most "meh" romantic suspense book I've read recently. Jessie Kegan hires her deceased brother's best friend Brandon Garrett to help her solve the mystery of her father's death and … Continue reading Review: The Ultimate Betrayal by Kat Martin
Five Stars Anddd say hello to one of my top books of the year! I absolutely adored CONVENTIONALLY YOURS by Annabeth Albert. I had to read it twice before I could even get my heart-feels under control enough to write a more coherent review than "GAH I LOVE, LOVE." Although, fair warning, this review will … Continue reading Review: Conventionally Yours by Annabeth Albert
Four Stars I have to say, I'm a sucker for a good bear shifter romance! Setting up a new paranormal world is always a challenge, but Kathy Lyons tackled world-building, action, mystery, and of course, ROMANCE with aplomb. Her ability to deftly world build while pushing along the connection between our hero and heroine and … Continue reading Review: Bound by Shadows by Kathy Lyons
Four Stars Dang. Christine Feehan is really taking these Torpedo Ink novels to the next erotic level and I'm here for it. I think it really fits the dark and violent, yet emotional and romantic tone these books have. I'm a sucker for a hero and heroine who geek out over books and learning together, … Continue reading Review: Desolation Road by Christine Feehan
Three Stars I really thought this was going to be a Maisey Yates slam-dunk romance for me. I love it when she pairs the inexperienced and feisty heroine with an older and jaded hero. Unfortunately, this one ended up being just an okay read for me. Our heroine, Pansy (yes, that's really her name) was … Continue reading Review: The Bad Boy of Redemption Ranch by Maisey Yates
Five Stars I'm not sure why I was nervous about Selenka's book, but I was. All of Nalini's Alpha stories are special in their own way, but each of the Alpha shifter books have been extraordinary. So, my expectations for the first book in the series about a female Alpha wolf were super high. Of … Continue reading Review: Alpha Night by Nalini Singh
Four Stars If you've been reading the Victorian Rebels series since the beginning, which I highly recommend (!!), then, like me, you've been waiting with bated breath for Chief Inspector Sir Carlton Morley to get his own book. Byrne has skillfully crafted his development as a secondary character throughout the previous six books, and it … Continue reading Review: A Dark and Stormy Knight by Kerrigan Byrne
Two Stars I picked SOMETHING TO TALK ABOUT up on a whim. It was on my TBR, of course, but I hadn't planned to read it the day I picked it up. I was actually going to just read a chapter or two to get a feel for Meryl Wilsner's writing style as a debut … Continue reading Review: Something to Talk About by Meryl Wilsner
