Review: The Cowboy and His Baby by Jessica Clare

May 6, 2019Leave a comment

Two Stars This book was a little bit like a bad Hallmark movie for me, not a regular Hallmark movie (which, I happen to enjoy), but one that has all the right elements but just falls flat. The premise of a playboy cowboy and a movie dog trainer was giving me all the right feels … Continue reading Review: The Cowboy and His Baby by Jessica Clare

Review: Toxic Game by Christine Feehan

March 20, 2019Leave a comment

Three Stars Christine Feehan is one of my all-time favorite authors. Her recent books have been some of my favorites, but TOXIC GAME didn't work for me. This is the 15th book in the GhostWalkers series, but the third book in what has been a mini series arc following one of the GhostWalker teams. GhostWalkers are … Continue reading Review: Toxic Game by Christine Feehan

Review: Say You’re Sorry by Karen Rose

February 12, 20191 Comment

Four Stars Wow. What a roller coaster from beginning to end! I don't know how I've gone this long without reading a Karen Rose novel, but I am officially a fan. SAY YOU'RE SORRY is the first book in Ms. Rose's new Sacramento series. It's a wonderfully crafted romantic thriller following Daisy, a free spirit still … Continue reading Review: Say You’re Sorry by Karen Rose

Review: The Matchmaker List by Sonya Lalli

February 5, 2019Leave a comment

3.5 Stars Wow, I have mixed feelings about this book. First off, this is not really a romance novel, I wouldn't really consider it to be a rom-com either. A couple is not at the center of this story and this book delves deep. It's not even a little bit fluffy. Even the humorous parts are … Continue reading Review: The Matchmaker List by Sonya Lalli

Review: Vengeance ​Road by Christine Feehan

January 28, 2019Leave a comment

Four Stars I've said it once, but I'll say it again: Torpedo Ink is the series Christine Feehan was always meant to write and I am SO here for it. I loved this book. I don't want to say too much about the plot because I would have been OFFENDED if anyone had ruined the … Continue reading Review: Vengeance ​Road by Christine Feehan

Review: Someone To Trust by Mary Balogh

November 25, 2018December 12, 2018Leave a comment

Four Stars It always takes me about 25% of the book to really get into a Mary Balogh novel. She has a beautiful writing style that makes you feel like you're living in a Charles Dickens novel, but it's definitely a different pace than most historical authors publishing today. The family Christmas scenes at the … Continue reading Review: Someone To Trust by Mary Balogh

Review: SEAL’s Honor by Megan Crane

November 6, 2018November 21, 20181 Comment

2.5 Stars SEAL’s Honor follows Everly, a woman who witnessed the murder of her roommate, and Blue, the special ops, ex-SEAL Everly knew as a child. Blue is a member of Alaska Force, a crew made up of hardcore ex-military guys. Everly drives to Alaska implore Blue to help her solve the murder of her … Continue reading Review: SEAL’s Honor by Megan Crane

Review: Fight or Flight by Samantha Young

October 8, 2018November 21, 20181 Comment

Two Stars TI desperately, desperately wanted to like this book. I have been a Samantha Young fan for years, and I usually think her books are the perfect balance of emotion and romance. Unfortunately, I was about a hairsbreadth away from DNFing this book for the majority of it. Only my curiosity about how Caleb … Continue reading Review: Fight or Flight by Samantha Young

Review: Dark Sentinel by Christine Feehan

September 2, 2018October 30, 2018Leave a comment

I'm elated that Ms. Feehan finally gave me everything I asked for in a novel! I wanted a Carpathian ancient and a modern woman to figure out their love for each other without the woman making all the concessions. That was exactly what happened with Andor and Lorraine in Dark Sentinel. Let me just say, … Continue reading Review: Dark Sentinel by Christine Feehan

Review: Off the Grid by Monica McCarty

July 4, 2018October 30, 20181 Comment

I wanted to love this book. One of my favorite summer subgenres is romantic suspense and this book seemed like it would hit all my favorite buttons: best friend's sister, sexy SEALs, suspenseful plot line. Unfortunately, the relationships fell a little flat for me. I didn't hate this book. It had some real potential. Ms. … Continue reading Review: Off the Grid by Monica McCarty

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!
