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
Review: Never Been Shipped by Alicia Thompson
Never Been Shipped by Alicia ThompsonContemporary RomanceJune 10, 2025, by Berkley Review by Angela Everyone knows friends to lovers is one of my favorite tropes, add in the "getting the band back together vibe" and a lovely cover and I'm all yours. Never Been Shipped is a friends to lovers, has been rockstar romance. It started out slow, which is probably why it took a little longer for me to make it all the way through to the end. ElectricOh! is a band that broke up years before Continue Reading

Review: Archangel’s Ascension by Nalini Singh
Archangel's Ascension by Nalini SinghGuild Hunter #17Paranormal/Fantasy RomanceMay 6, 2025- BerkleyARC Review by Angela This has to be my most anticipated book in years and years. I kept hope alive throughout the series that these two would end up together, and then celebrated the first book in their story, even knowing that it would have to continue on in a later installment. I will admit that I read this book as soon as it hit my Kindle back in December of 2024 and writing a review Continue Reading

So, I was super excited when I discovered that Montlake was publishing her all-new series featuring SUPERHEROES AND SUPER VILLIANS. All Superheroes Need PR is a fun, Continue Reading
Review: Beneath the Burning Sea by Amanda Bouchet
Beneath the Burning Sea by Amanda BouchetKingmaker Chronicles #5Fantasy RomanceMay 27, 2025, by SourcebooksARC Review by Angela It's been a long time coming, but finally Bellanca and Carver's story is here! This world began in 2016 with Cat and Griffin. The original trilogy followed the same main characters and introduced this world of mythology and magic. I was satisfied with the wrap-up of the original plot arc, but did wonder if my beloved secondary characters would also receive Continue Reading

His family knows better—that his autism means he just processes emotions differently. When he steadfastly avoids relationships, Continue Reading

Review: The Wind Weaver by Julie Johnson
The Wind Weaver by Julie JohnsonReign of Remnants #1Fantasy RomanceApril 8, 2025- AceARC Review by Angela I may be at the point where I've read too many romantasy books this year. They all seem to be blurring together. I swear I read the blurb before I grabbed the ARC for review, but for some reason I thought there would be dragons in this book. Maybe because of the cover? I don't know. ANYWAY, The Wind Weaver doesn't have dragons, but it does have elemental powers, magic, Continue Reading
