Five Stars I'm speechless. Well, okay, maybe not completely speechless, because I am writing this review. But this will probably be the shortest rave review I have ever written because there was a big cliffhanger at the end of ARCHANGEL'S PROPHECY, and I refuse to spoil any of ARCHANGEL'S WAR for readers of the series. … Continue reading Review: Archangel’s War by Nalini Singh
Four Stars HIDDEN, the first book in Rebecca Zanetti's Deep Ops series, was one of my very favorite books of 2018. So to say that FALLEN was one of my most anticipated reads of 2019 is an extreme understatement. The series follows a ragtag group of operatives and Fallen is about Raider, a disgraced Fed, … Continue reading Review: Fallen by Rebecca Zanetti
Two Stars Listen, I know what I am getting when I open a Harlequin Presents novel: a fun, quick, fairytale-like romance. But because these are such quick stories, I expect the main couple, in this case, regular gal, Hannah, and Greek billionaire Leonidas, to have a lot of page time. Unfortunately, Hannah and Leonidas spent … Continue reading The Greek’s Billion-Dollar Baby by Clare Connelly
Four Stars After THE KISS QUOTIENT blew me away, I was nervous (to say the least) to start THE BRIDE TEST. I had seen the rave reviews and wanted to love it just as much as everyone else. And for the most part, I absolutely did. This book follows Khai, a man with autism, and … Continue reading Review: The Bride Test by Helen Hoang
Two Stars I was a little wary going into this book. I took a break from the Dark series for a while when things got weird with mages. The spells and magic and million rules really bog a story down for me. But I've loved the last few books in the series so I decided … Continue reading Review: Dark Illusion by Christine Feehan
4.5 Stars I think I need to start this review by pointing out that Kerrigan Byrne is a phenomenal writer. Phenomenal. One of the best in the business right now. Her descriptions in HOW TO LOVE A DUKE IN TEN DAYS blew me away. I was transported to a dark, gothic, late 1800s, and I … Continue reading Review: How to Love a Duke in Ten Days by Kerrigan Byrne
Four Stars I haven't been this surprised and delighted by a historical romance in a long time. HOW TO CATCH A WICKED VISCOUNT was fun, sexy, and thoroughly engaging. This is the first book in a series following four young debutantes in the aftermath of getting kicked out of their finishing school. Sophie, our heroine, … Continue reading Review: How to Catch a Wicked Viscount by Amy Rose Bennett
2.5 Stars SHADOWS AT DAWN by Kat Martin is a quick work place and romantic suspense novella. The book starts off with a bang when our heroine, Mindy, is almost kidnapped. Luckily, she is saved by her office crush, the former SEAL and current private detective, Jax. This plot was a tall order for a … Continue reading Review: Shadows at Dawn by Kat Martin
3.5 Stars This was my first book by Katherine Center, and I'm glad I took a chance on THINGS YOU SAVE IN A FIRE. I thoroughly enjoyed Ms. Center's voice as an author. The story follows Cassie, a young and tough firefighter whose life is slowly cracking down the middle. It starts with a disaster … Continue reading Review: Things You Save in a Fire by Katherine Center
Three Stars I love picking up novellas by new-to-me authors. They give me a little taste of the author’s writing style, and novella-length stories are tough to write. PLAYING HOUSE is the first story in a new Ruby Lang series, and while I enjoyed it, I think the pacing of the story was off as … Continue reading Review: Playing House by Ruby Lang
