July 4, 2025 by Angela Leave a Comment

Review originally posted by Mandi on 7/7/2016. Into the Blue by Chanel Cleeton (Wild Aces #2)Released: July 5, 2016Contemporary RomanceBerkley This second chance romance is so sweet and sexy, I think I smiled through the whole book.  Eric and Becca were sweethearts growing up, and both fell deeply in love. But Eric felt the pull of the Air Force and left Becca behind to pursue his dreams. It wasn’t that he wanted out of the relationship, it was that he wanted to experience Continue Reading

Review: Human Rites by Juno Dawson

July 3, 2025 by Kate Leave a Comment

Human Rites by Juno DawsonFantasyJuly 1, 2025, by Penguin Books Review by Kate I read all three of the books in Her Majesty’s Royal Coven trilogy in a week, and Human Rites was an excellent conclusion to a spectacular trilogy.  For me, one of the best things about these books is the way that Juno Dawson writes. It feels so cinematic, as if I’m watching a movie playing in my head. There’s just the right amount of description to let me imagine the settings, people and emotions Continue Reading

Tusk Love by Thea GuanzonRomantic FantasyJuly 1, 2025- Random House WorldsARC Review by Angela Honestly, one look at this cover while scrolling through social media and I was instantly intrigued. I probably would have read it for the cover alone even if the blurb didn't shout at me that I needed to put it on my TBR. So, bravo to the art department at Random House Worlds. Quick note- I am not a Critical Role fan and really had no idea how this story fit into that world until I Continue Reading
