House of Earth and Blood by Sarah J. MaasCrescent City #1Science Fiction/Contemporary Fantasy March 3, 2020 by Bloomsbury ARC Favorite Quote: Through love, all is possible. This book y'all. 800 pages of brilliant worldbuilding, fascinating characters, and an intricate, twisty-turny plot that kept me turning pages. Unfortunately, I had to sleep, eat, and work on occasion, which meant it took me most of last week to get through this debut to the Crescent City series. But, what a lovely Continue Reading
Guest Post: Themes in A Paradox of Fates by Rebecca Hefner
Rebecca's new book, A Paradox of Fates, Sci-Fi Romance, Dystopian Romance is out now. She stopped by to talk about the themes in the book. I always knew I’d write a romance about a theoretical physicist female protagonist one day. Why? Because to me, a self-proclaimed science dork, there’s nothing sexier than science. It can explain in exact terms why certain parts of our bodies flush with desire when being held in the arms of a lover. It also leads to a shared understanding Continue Reading

House of Earth and Blood (Crescent City #1) by Sarah J Mass 3/3 Fantasy- As soon as I found out this author was releasing a book in a new series I had to Continue Reading

Angela’s Minis- Reviews for books by T. Kingfisher and Ella Maven
I discovered that T. Kingfisher was releasing another book in her Temple of the White Rat world when I was putting together the new release post. To say I was excited would be an understatement, I hit that pre-order one-click button so hard. This author has quickly become one of my favorites in the fantasy genre and I will set aside everything else when I see she has a new release. Paladin’s Grace is heavier on the romance (which I loved) than the other books set in this world. The Clockwork Continue Reading

Sheena’s TBR Takedown!- An Hysterical Historical by Suzanne Enoch
Anyone who promises wild and wicked Highland romance has snagged me hook, line and sinker. Scot Under the Covers by Suzanne Enoch not only has a DAMN, YES MA'AM! cover, the blurb hinted at a plot ripe with tricks and games of intrigue. Will they, won't they!?- Of course they will- this is HEA through and through, but the journey to the happy ending was a riot. And I guess I'll start there. I didn't expect this novel to be as freaking funny as it was! Historical romances often have lots of winks Continue Reading
