Retro Review: Kinked by Thea Harrison
Review originally posted in November of 2013 on Fiction Vixen by Angela. Kinked by Thea HarrisonElder Races #6Paranormal RomancePublished November 5, 2013 by Berkley The Elder Races is one of those paranormal romance series that seems to be hit or miss with some readers. Not me though, I’ve loved every installment Thea Harrison has released. One of the things I’ve heard over and over when it was announced that this would be Aryal’s story was that readers were concerned because she was Continue Reading
Review: Of Sword & Silver by January Bell
Of Sword & Silver by January BellA Conqueror's Kingdom #1FantasyKindle Unlimited Review by Angela I've enjoyed this author's science fiction romances, which are available on Kindle Unlimited. So, I was pretty excited to learn she was dipping her toes into the fantasy genre with a new series. Of Sword & Silver is pretty ambitious-- with a feisty, misunderstood heroine, a mysterious male main protagonist, and worldbuilding with extensive gods, goddess, and historical Continue Reading

Retro Review: Duke of Sin by Elizabeth Hoyt
Review originally posted in May of 2016 at Fiction Vixen by Angela. The tenth book in the Maiden Lane series featuring the dastardly, vain Duke of Montgomery has been eagerly anticipated by this reader. I’m always a bit intrigued by the anti-hero and how an author will ultimately redeem him. Or if they can get me to believe their redemption and emotional connection to that one special person who makes them want to become better. There certainly hasn’t been a man who fits the role of Continue Reading

Retro Review: Entreat Me by Grace Draven
Review originally posted in November 2014 as a What To Read Wednesday post at Fiction Vixen by Angela. A couple of weeks ago I featured Master of Crows on a WTRW post.

I settled on her newest release, Entreat Me, a fantasy romance based on the Beauty and the Beast myth. This is the story of a curse laid on a husband and son by a dying wife bent on revenge. During a period Continue Reading
