I don't often highlight passages in books. Usually, it's a complete story that drives my feelings. Last Night with the Earl is an exception. I think I highlighted half of this novel. Eli was one of the most intensely romantic heroes I have read in a while, and I needed him right now. In addition … Continue reading Review: Last Night with the Earl by Kelly Bowen

Matt is a … Continue reading Review: Hard Sell by Lauren Layne

Pirate. King. Realness. One of the many delicious plot points Kerrigan Byrne brings to The Duke With the Dragon Tattoo. I have dubbed Byrne Queen of the Historical Antihero and I adore her for it.
