Review: A Heart of Blood and Ashes by Milla Vane
A Heart of Blood and Ashes by Milla VaneA Gathering of Dragons #1Fantasy RomanceFebruary 4, 2019 by BerkleyARC This was my most anticipated read of 2020.

Angela’s Minis- Reviews for books by Joanna Shupe, Seanan McGuire, and Zoey Draven

Come Tumbling Down by Seanan McGuireWayward Children #5YA FantasyJanuary 7, 2020 by Tor.comARC I really love this series. These aren't long reads, but each one touches on important issues and leaves the reader satisfied and eager for the next release.

Review: Get A Life, Chloe Brown by Talia Hibbert
Let’s just get this out of the way, I really enjoyed it and I think it is going to end up on a lot of best of/favorites of 2019, including my own. I went into this book with minimal expectations as I haven’t read any of Talia’s recent works. It was very good. Not a ton of fluff that wasn’t relevant to the story. To quote myself from a tweet from the other night when I was talking about this book “The story is solid. The chemistry is amazing. The emotions are off the Continue Reading
Angela’s Tuesday ARC Reviews: Angel in a Devil’s Arms by Julie Anne Long
Angel in a Devil's Arms by Julie Anne LongThe Palace of Rogues #2Historical RomanceOctober 29, 2019 by AvonARC I went into this book having already enjoyed the first book in the series, Lady Derring Takes a Lover, and excited to see Angelique Breedlove, the other proprietress of The Grand Palace on the Thames, finally meet a man worthy of her and find her happily ever after. I was pleasantly surprised to find myself positively enchanted almost from the moment Lucien Durand, Lord Bolt, walked Continue Reading
Review: Beard with Me by Penny Reid
This book starts with an author's note that to paraphrase states this book is tragic, can stand alone and has lots of triggers. Let’s get the content warnings out of the way first- domestic abuse, child abuse, and animal abuse. Although most of this happens off page and we just read about the after effects. If you want specifics, please feel free to reach out to me directly. I have read every single one of the Winston Brothers books. I have been invested in Scarlet/Claire and Billy Continue Reading
Review: How to Love a Duke in Ten Days by Kerrigan Byrne
How to Love a Duke in Ten Days by Kerrigan ByrneDevil You Know #1Historical RomanceAugust 27, 2019 by St. Martin's ARCContent Warning: rape and sexual assault I adore this author, absolutely adore. Kerrigan Byrne writes the MOST emotional, chest-clenching, angsty love stories. Strong heroines and broody heroes who experience sweeping, sensual, all consuming passion for each other. I always think she can't out do herself yet again and she always does. How to Love a Duke in Ten Days is the Continue Reading
Angela’s Tuesday ARC Reviews: The Blacksmith Queen by GA Aiken and Sapphire Flames by Ilona Andrews
The Blacksmith Queen by GA AikenThe Scarred Earth Saga #1Fantasy RomanceAugust 27, 2019 by KensingtonARC The Blacksmith Queen was just what I needed last week. If you are familiar with GA Aiken/Shelly Laurenston then you know how much humor and zaniness are packed into her storytelling. Her over the top characters, the wonderful, sometimes bloody and violent, yet loyal extended family, the broad, interesting worldbuilding, and the fierce women who are the center of everything. THIS IS BOOK Continue Reading
Mini Reviews: The Molly O’Keefe/Fader Edition
Hi friends! I has been a long time since I wrote any sort of review. But July was a busy month for me. Almost everyone in my family has a July birthday. My son moved out of his apartment and back home! And I had to get ready for RWA. (Which was an amazing experience from which I am still recovering) Amidst all that I managed to read a few books. Two I want to highlight here are The McAvoy Sisters Book of Secrets by Molly Fader and One Last Chance by Molly O’Keefe. Molly Fader is a pen name of Continue Reading
