What I read this week: Captive Desire by Robin Lovett Planet of Desire #2 Erotic Science Fiction Romance November 19, 2018 by Entangled Publishing Favorite Quote: She is everything. She is all there is. Her body is my universe. For now. I've been reading quite a bit of fantasy/urban fantasy/science fiction romance lately. This might sound weird, but when I feel like everything is a total dumpster fire I want stories that completely sweep me away to another world. Captive Desire is Continue Reading

What I read this week: Tsumiko and the Enslaved Fox by Forthright Amaranthine Saga #1 Fantasy Romance February 21, 2018 by Twinkle Press This book was so very interesting, with world-building and characters so unlike any I've ever seen before. Of course I added it to my TBR list because Ilona Andrews featured it on a blog post and if Ilona Andrews recommends something you absolutely one-click. The main protagonists are Tsumiko, who inherits an estate, a fortune, and a person from an Continue Reading
Review: Fury by Rachel Vincent
Fury by Rachel Vincent Menagerie #3 Urban Fantasy October 30, 2018 by MIRA Favorite Quote: "I love you. I have always loved you. And when I die, it will be with your name on my lips." Reviewed by Angela Wow. I've anxiously awaited the conclusion to the Menagerie series for some time, but now that I've read it I'm kind of at a loss. I don't know exactly how I feel. Maybe it's because this series has been so sad and terrible at times, the treatment of the cryptids so horrific, Continue Reading

What I read this week: Archangel's Prophecy by Nalini Singh Guild Hunter #11 Urban Fantasy October 30, 2018 by Berkley I'm not sure how to review this book without giving away spoilers. Although I'm sure by now, most romance readers aware that Elena and Raphael are once again in the spotlight and have heard the ruckus over the cliffhanger ending. Archangel's Prophecy starts out slow and easy, readers are thrown right back into a familiar world. I always enjoy those first few chapters Continue Reading

What I read this week: Band Sinister by K.J Charles Historical M/M October 11, 2018 by KJC Books I loved this book. Loved, loved, loved. This might even be my favorite romance by KJ Charles. I was scrolling through twitter a while back and came upon a tweet by the author saying that she had gone "Full Heyer" and that there were all the tropes my heart could possibly desire and from that moment on I was all in. Virgin country gentleman forced into close proximity with his dastardly (but not Continue Reading

What I read this week: Fire of the Dreki by LE Wilson The Sergones Coven #1 Paranormal Romance October 11, 2018 by Everblood Publishing I really wanted to like this book more than I did.

Kohl Sergones knows there's no place for a woman around a creature like him—half vampire, half dragon, and the only one of his kind. Taken in by a coven of vampires who make their home in the underground caverns of central Continue Reading

What I read this week: Kill the Queen by Jennifer Estep Crown of Shards #1 Fantasy October 2, 2018 by Harper Voyager Favorite Quote: "Traitors always pay for their sins," I hissed. Kill the Queen is the first book in Jennifer Estep's brand new fantasy series, Crown of Shards. I picked this book up to read at the end of the day, thinking I would get in a few chapters before bed and then finish it the next day. HAHAHAHA. It wasn't until I was huddled with my Kindle under my comforter at 2 Continue Reading
Review: Phoenix Unbound by Grace Draven
Phoenix Unbound by Grace Draven Fallen Empire #1 Fantasy Romance September 25, 2018 by Ace Favorite Quote: "Stay with me, Gilene," he whispered in her ear. "I can't," she murmured, still half asleep. "I will conquer all of the Empire to bring you back." Reviewed by Angela This was probably my most anticipated book this year. If you were to ask me to make a list of my favorite fantasy romances of all time, Grace Draven would have four or five titles in my top ten. She Continue Reading
Review: A Notorious Vow by Joanna Shupe
A Notorious Vow by Joanna Shupe The Four Hundred #3 Historical Romance September 25, 2018 by Avon Reviewed by Angela: The entire time I was reading this book I had this overwhelming feeling of sadness and dread. I've enjoyed this author previously, so when I saw this up for review I didn't even read the blurb, I just hit the request button. I wasn't prepared. You see the hero in A Notorious Vow is deaf, and I grew up in a partially deaf household. I know the stories of how my father was Continue Reading
