How Rory Thorne Destroyed the Multiverse by K. EasonThe Thorne Chronicles #1Science Fiction/ FantasyOctober 8, 2019 by DAWARC I started this while on a plane flight between Phoenix and Las Vegas, and was so intrigued right from the start that I was annoyed that my flight only lasted about an hour. I wasn't able to get back to it until my later flight from Las Vegas to Houston, but once I fell back into the story I couldn't stop reading. How Rory Thorne Destroyed the Multiverse is a YA/NA Continue Reading

Sheena’s Wistfully Wanton Wednesday: Intergalactic Love!
I'm a sucker for Sexy, Fantasy, Sci-Fi Romance. I've been on an Alien Abduction bender for the better part of a year and I don't want to be saved. Send me more. Rec me to oblivion with more and more of this deliciously fun to read trope! I came across Alana Khan's Zar whilst trolling through Kindle Unlimited (a treasure trove!) and the cover screamed: "READ ME BISH!" and I just had to oblige. Then I read the blurb and knew my alien romance spidey senses had steered me right! A new Continue Reading

In a sprawling mansion filled with peculiar treasures, January Scaller is a curiosity herself. Continue Reading

Need You Now by Molly O’Keefe- Unless you’re new here, (which if you are, welcome) you know that I am a O’Keefe fan girl. When I saw Need You Now, I knew I needed it. It is part of The Debt series. I think I’ve read most of this series. It’s kind of dark y’all. The heroine spends time in a juvenile detention program that puts her in the home of an abuser. If that is a trigger, please do not read this book. It is probably better if you have read at least the first two books in the series to Continue Reading

Bringing Down the Duke by Evie DunmoreA League of Extraordinary Women #1Historical Romance September 3, 2019 by BerkleyARC This was a pleasant surprise! I love it when a debut author exceeds my expectations and leaves me looking forward to the next release in the series. Bringing Down the Duke is set in the late 1800s, and features a heroine who has secured a scholarship to Oxford and is involved in the suffrage movement in England. She, quite by accident and without knowing his Continue Reading

This week I have mini reviews for three books by new to me authors. The Blacksmith Queen by G.A. Aiken- I rarely read outside contemporary but when Jane, the Kensington publicist, told me about this book I felt compelled to read it. She described it as feminist and humorous with a kick ass heroine and a shifter/centaur hero. All of those things are correct. Seriously, a sure fire way to sell me on a book is to tell me that it is feminist. The heroine, Keeley is a magnificent blacksmith Continue Reading
