Key Change by Heidi HutchinsonContemporary RomanceOctober 12, 2021 by Smartypants RomanceARC Review by Jen Key Change by Heidi Hutchinson was a super cute audio book. It’s set in the Seduction in the City World, Penny Reid Universe. And, it is actually book three in the Common Thread series. I was a little apprehensive about this book because I’ve never read any book in those series. I’m such a big fan of a good audio book and went for it. Narrated by Samantha Continue Reading
Review: The Plated Prisoner Series by Raven Kennedy
The Plated Prisoner Series by Raven KennedyRomantic FantasyOctober 16, 2020 Reviewed by Jen TikTok made me read it.Jen, 12/2021 Soo….this series isn’t complete yet and there’s one helluva cliff hanger on book three. The fourth book is being released sometime in 2022. The horror of not having a date is killing me. This series is all over BookTok and I finally decided to see what the hubbub was about. It has all my normal Kindle crack of fae, magic, unique kingdoms, evil kings and Continue Reading
Review: After Dark with the Duke by Julie Anne Long
After Dark with the Duke by Julie Anne LongThe Palace of Rogues #4Historical RomanceNovember 30, 2021, by AvonARC Review by Angela The fourth book in The Palace of Rogues series features an opposites attract, age-gap romance that has to be one of my favorite books by this author to date. After Dark with the Duke had me running a whole gamut of emotions, from happiness to heartbreak and everything in between. I loved every minute of it. Mariana Wylde shows up at The Grand Palace on the Continue Reading
Review: King of Battle and Blood by Scarlett St. Clair
King of Battle and Blood by Scarlett St. ClairDark Fantasy11/30/2021 by Bloom BooksARC Review by Jen I’m on a roll with finding so many awesome books over the last few months. King of Battle and Blood by Scarlett St. Clair has got to be in my top three, maybe top two? It was AMAZING!!!! I first found this author when her series, Hades X Persephone, blew up on TikTok. I enjoyed those books a lot, and this one was EVEN BETTER. Enemies to lovers, Vampires, arranged marriage…all my Continue Reading
Review: Fated Blades (Kinsmen #3) by Ilona Andrews
Fated Blades by Ilona AndrewsKinsmen #3Fantasy RomanceNovember 23, 2021, by MontlakeARC Review by Angela Before I get into this review I just have to say bravo to the cover artist for this beautiful cover and how well matched it is to a certain pivotal scene. Fated Blades is part of the Kinsmen universe, one of this author duo's lesser-known series. Which is a shame because it, like all of their work, is beyond awesome. Who doesn't love warring space families with special powers Continue Reading
Review: Duke, Actually by Jenny Holiday
Duke, Actually by Jenny Holiday Contemporary Romance November 16, 2021 by Avon Reviewed by Kate Duke, Actually is an adorable follow-up to A Princess for Christmas. I will open with my main complaints, which are that I don’t love this cover (A Princess for Christmas is so much cuter) and I feel a better title would have been “Baron, Actually” but I do understand how that would not have been as enticing. And now that I’ve gotten that out of the way, we can start on my many Continue Reading
Review: All the Feels by Olivia Dade
All the Feels by Olivia DadeSpoiler Alert #2Contemporary RomanceNovember 16, 2021, by AvonARC Reviewer: Melinda Before I begin my full-on squeeing over this book, I need to add a disclaimer that Olivia is a complete auto-buy author for me. Once I read her self-published book, Teach Me, a few years ago I was all in and have never looked back. And beyond that, I consider Olivia a friend so you can consider that when reading this review for sure. Okay, but moving on to this actual Continue Reading

Review: A Thorn in the Saddle by Rebekah Weatherspoon
A Thorn in the Saddle by Rebekah WeatherspoonContemporary Romance10/26/2021 by Dafina BooksARC Review by Melanie I have always imagined that cowboy romances are not for me. I’m not a huge nature person, have never been big into horses and as such, just assumed that cowboys, as a romance hero archetype, wasn’t really my jam. It wasn’t until Rebekah Weatherspoon released the first book in her Cowboys of California series back in 2020 that I began to question that maybe under the right Continue Reading
