The Devil Gets His Due by Elizabeth O'RoarkThe Devils #4Contemporary RomanceDecember 1, 2022- Self PublishedARC Review by Angela There have been several enemies to lovers, opposites attract romances in this series so far, but now here's one that is also an "omg, we got drunk married in Vegas" combined with an "omg, we are pregnant, what are we going to to do?" If you haven't read the blurb yet, this is Graham and Keely's book, brother to Ben and best friend to Gemma from The Devil Continue Reading
Review: Secluded Cabin Sleeps Six by Lisa Unger
Secluded Cabin Sleeps Six by Lisa UngerMystery/SuspensePublished 11/8/2022 by Park Row This is one of those slow-build, multiple-POV suspense novels that will capture readers' attention, while also frustrating them with the sluggish pacing. This is the story of three couples on holiday at a secluded luxury cabin in the woods. All three couples are connected in different ways. By marriage, by friendship, and family ties.

Into the Windwracked Wilds by A. Deborah BakerThe Up and Under #3YA FantasyOctober 24, 2022, by Tordotcom Another great adventure in the Up and Under.

Review: Archangel’s Resurrection by Nalini Singh
Archangel's Resurrection by Nalini SinghGuild Hunter #15PNR/Fantasy RomanceOctober 25, 2022, by BerkleyARC Review by Angela If I'm being completely honest I had mixed feelings about this book when the blurb was released. On the one hand, I wasn't thrilled that readers wouldn't be getting an update on the Bluebell/Sparkle romance. I DO think we will see them again in another book devoted to their developing relationship, but I really wanted it now. On the other hand, I was just a Continue Reading

There is an ongoing plot arc and references to previous events leading up to Jo and Flynn going on this epic quest. Secondly, if you are curious about what Continue Reading
