Review: The Lost Story of Eva Fuentes by Chanel Cleeton

October 2, 2025 by Melanie 1 Comment

The Lost Story of Eva Fuentes by Chanel CleetonHistorical FictionSeptember 30, 2025 by Berkley Review by Melanie Let me preface this review by stating that this is very much a historical fiction and not a historical romance. There is a very faint romantic storyline in this book but it is hardly the driving force or the main focus of the story. It is merely a slight sideplot and if that’s not your cuppa, then this book may not be for you. That being said, I was thoroughly engrossed Continue Reading

Review: Gabriela and His Grace by Liana De la Rosa

August 27, 2025 by Melanie Leave a Comment

Gabriela and His Grace by Liana De la RosaHistorical Romance August 26, 2025 by Berkley Review by Melanie This review is going to be super annoying to write because for the first 85% of this book, I was so confident that this was going to be a 5 star book and already mentally penning the 5 star review in my head and….then the last 15% of the book happened and honestly, I am so irate. I gave this book 4 stars on Goodreads because the first 85% is so strong and overall, this entire Continue Reading

A Witch's Guide to Magical Innkeeping by Sangu MandannaCozy FantasyJuly 15, 2025, by Berkley Review by Angela I discovered this author when I read The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches a couple of years ago and absolutely fell in love with its charm and humor.
