Joint Review: Call Me Maybe by Cara Bastone

October 22, 2020 by Kini Leave a Comment

Cover of Call Me Maybe by Cara Bastone

Melinda and I are Cara Bastone fan girls so I thought it would be fun for us to do a joint review of Bastone’s latest release- Call Me Maybe, An Audible Original. Kini: The whole premise is that Vera, the female main character, calls tech support and starts an hours long call with Cal, the male main character. I love these kinds of set ups.  When I first started this story I wasn’t sure I was going to love the male narrator’s voice. It was stronger and deeper than I had imagined. Continue Reading

Audio Review: A Princess for Christmas by Jenny Holiday

October 21, 2020 by Melinda Leave a Comment

A Princess for Christmas by Jenny HolidayContemporary Holiday RomanceOctober 13, 2020, by AvonARC Review by Melinda This book was the definition of aggressively fine for me and part of it has to do with my own issues I bring with me but part of it was definitely the book. My issue is around that once again breast cancer is in the background for these characters. Admittedly, it plays a small part but it looms large over the entire book as it’s what killed one of the protagonist’s mothers. Continue Reading

July 12, 2018 by Helyce 1 Comment

Awaken the Darkness by Dianne Duvall (Immortal Guardians #8) Paranormal Romance July 10, 2018 Self Published Blurb:  He awakens encapsulated in dirt with no knowledge of how he came to be there.

All he knows with certainty is that the soothing voice and presence of the woman moving around above enables him to Continue Reading

Audio Review: One More Time by Laurelin Paige

April 6, 2018 by Kini Leave a Comment

One More Time by Laurelin Paige Publication Date: January 30, 2018 Contemporary Romance (Audio) Audible Reviewed by Kini One of my absolute favorite tropes is second chance at romance. I hardly ever so say no when the opportunity comes up to review one. I’ve never reviewed an audiobook, so I was eager to give it a try. I don’t know much about this author but I did read her co-written book called “P*rn Star” a few years back and I remember it being funny. Anyway, I delved into it. The Continue Reading

If you are already an Audible member it's an additional $6.95 per month, or if you are a new subscriber, $14.95. A few thing that Audible Romance offers: "Take Continue Reading

October 12, 2016 by Mandi Leave a Comment

Withholding Evidence by Rachel Grant (Evidence #3) Released: February 2014 Romantic Suspense Self Published Reviewed by Mandi I really like this Evidence series by Rachel Grant. I've read them completely out-of-order, but they all do well as stand-alones. This review request came in audiobook format, and since I'm a huge lover of audiobooks, I said sure! Trina Sorensen is a military historian - her research and books focuses on the Navy. Her latest assignment is to uncover some Continue Reading
