Review: The Right Swipe by Alisha Rai

August 6, 2019Leave a comment

Four Stars Dang it, Alisha Rai! She gets me every time. THE RIGHT SWIPE hit all the right notes; starting with one of my new favorite heroes, and ending with a beautifully complex, yet fast-paced romance novel. The story follows Rhiannon, a guarded dating app CEO and kick-butt girl boss, and Samson, my new book … Continue reading Review: The Right Swipe by Alisha Rai

Review: New Orleans Rush by Kelly Siskind

April 24, 2019Leave a comment

Three Stars I wasn't really sure what to expect when I started reading NEW ORLEANS RUSH. It was my first book by Kelly Siskind, but the cute cover and synopsis were irresistible. For the most part, this book charmed me with its zany humor, quirky characters, and snappy dialogue. I definitely think you have to … Continue reading Review: New Orleans Rush by Kelly Siskind

Review: Unbroken Cowboy by Maisey Yates

April 23, 20191 Comment

Four Stars I was a little apprehensive about this book going in. I'm always a little leery when the heroine has been in love with the hero basically her whole life. And Beatrix HAS been in love with Dane her whole life. Now he is recovering from a bull riding accident and she helping to … Continue reading Review: Unbroken Cowboy by Maisey Yates

Review: Heat Stroke by Tessa Bailey

March 18, 20191 Comment

Five Stars As soon as I was finished with MOUTH TO MOUTH (the first book in the Beach Kingdom series) I knew I needed Jamie Prince's story immediately. A good Tessa Bailey novel is like eating a rich dessert: it's delicious so you try to savor it, and it leaves you with a sugar high. … Continue reading Review: Heat Stroke by Tessa Bailey

Review: Faking Forever by Catherine Bybee

March 11, 2019March 18, 2019Leave a comment

Four Stars I knew there was a reason I am always dying for the next Catherine Bybee novel. Dang, she's a dynamite author! FAKING FOREVER had me staying up way too late on a work day and grinning from ear to ear by the end. When is the next book coming out?? I need it! To … Continue reading Review: Faking Forever by Catherine Bybee

Review: My Favorite Half-Night Stand by Christina Lauren

February 21, 20191 Comment

Three Stars I think I fell into the hole of, "I hope really great writing can make me get over a trope I hate." Please note, this does not work, or at least it didn't work for me while reading this book. That being said, I can see why Christina Lauren has so many fans. MY … Continue reading Review: My Favorite Half-Night Stand by Christina Lauren

Review: One Tough Cowboy by Lora Leigh & Veronica Chadwick

January 30, 2019Leave a comment

3.5 Stars Anyone who reads a Lora Leigh novel and is surprised by gratuitous and smokin' hot sex scenes, has obviously never read one of her books before. ONE TOUGH COWBOY might have been co-written by Veronica Chadwick, but this was a classic Lora Leigh novel. The story follows Samantha, a Detroit police officer who has … Continue reading Review: One Tough Cowboy by Lora Leigh & Veronica Chadwick

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: Their Perfect Melody by Priscilla Oliveras

November 27, 2018Leave a comment

Four Stars Is there a real Diego Reyes in this world and can I please have him?? Their Perfect Melody was my first book by Priscilla Oliveras but the third book in her Matched to Perfection series. This book was sweet, full of family, and peppered with fun Puerto Rican culture. Their Perfect Melody follows … Continue reading Review: Their Perfect Melody by Priscilla Oliveras

Review: A Tall, Dark Cowboy Christmas by Maisey Yates

November 21, 2018November 23, 2018Leave a comment

Three Stars Maisey Yates is one of my favorite new-to-me authors of 2018. Her books always have heart, family, surprising depth, and cowboys. What more could I want? For the most part, I enjoyed this book, but it didn't quite grab me like her previous books have. Widows and widowers who were in previous happy … Continue reading Review: A Tall, Dark Cowboy Christmas by Maisey Yates

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!
