Review: A Curse of Queens by Amanda Bouchet
A Curse of Queens by Amanda BouchetThe Kingmaker Chronicles #4Fantasy RomanceOctober 4, 2022 by SourcebooksARC Review by Angela Before I get into this review, you should know a few things. First, reading the previous books in this series is a must, don't go into this fourth book in the series and then complain that you are lost. There is an ongoing plot arc and references to previous events leading up to Jo and Flynn going on this epic quest. Secondly, if you are curious about what Continue Reading

The Captive Merman's Promise by Zoey CastilePeculiar Tastes #5PNROctober 4, 2022ARC I enjoyed this book immensely.

The Palacios family was cursed to always lose their lovers, until Amada took the entirety of that curse upon herself. She's been alone for years, never even trying to Continue Reading

Angela’s Minis- Reviews for books by Rin Chupeco, Catriona Ward, and Megan Bannen
Silver Under Nightfall by Rin ChupecoLGBTQ FantasyPublished 9/13/2022 by Gallery/Saga PressARC I haven't read a vampire fantasy in a good long while, so when I spied this for review I immediately snapped it up. The first thing you should know is the worldbuilding in Silver Under Nightfall is quite unique for a genre that is full almost to bursting with scary and even sexy men with teeth. This book reads like a regency historical polyam romance with horror and fantasy elements. Lots of Continue Reading
Review: The Undertaking of Hart and Mercy by Megan Bannen
The Undertaking of Hart and Mercy by Megan BannenFantasyAugust 23, 2022 by Orbit BooksARC Review by: Melinda This book was such an incredible and weird delight to read, I loved it so much. But it has a plot that’s hard to pitch well. Mercy is an undertaker, and Hart kills zombies and is required to take their bodies to specific funeral homes. The two hate each other from their very first meeting, which was a complete disaster. They both are intensely lonely and end up writing Continue Reading
Review: Ruby Fever (Hidden Legacy #6) by Ilona Andrews
Ruby Fever by Ilona AndrewsHidden Legacy #6Urban Fantasy RomanceAugust 23, 2022, by AvonARC Review by Angela Anyone who knows me knows I am an Ilona Andrews fangirl. I will read anything they write. This husband and wife writing duo is at the very tip-top of my fantasy genre pyramid and I can't get enough. Ruby Fever, Hidden Legacy #6, was my most anticipated book of 2022. So when it hit my Kindle I pushed everything aside and sat down to read, starting right after work and staying up Continue Reading
Review: Dance with the Devil by Kit Rocha
Dance with the Devil by Kit RochaMercenary Librarians #3Dystopia/Fantasy RomanceAugust 16, 2022, by TorARC Review by Angela I'm always excited for another Kit Rocha book, but my anticipation for Dani and Rafe's book was sky high. These two gorgeous, yet deadly characters seemed to be engaged in a 'will they or won't they?' dance over the last two books. The Mercenary Librarians is a spin-off of the Beyond series, but if you haven't read the previous series don't worry, Continue Reading
Scenic Sunday- A Heart of Blood and Ashes by Milla Vane
It doesn't matter if this author writes under the name Milla Vane or Meljean Brook, I simply adore every word she pours onto the page. This is a scene toward the end when Maddek finally realizes that Yvenne has been telling him the truth all along. "Maddek!"He reined the horse around to see Yvenne limping toward him, her face still pale and eyes still shadowed, but not in so much pain. She carried a small velvel pouch, and was digging through it--pulling out jewels, strands of gold. As if Continue Reading
Review: The War of Two Queens by Jennifer L. Armentrout
The War of Two Queens by Jennifer L. ArmentroutFantasy RomanceBlue Box PressMarch 15, 2022 Review by Jen Whew…The War of Two Queens by Jennifer L. Armentrout is a LONG book. I think it was 25 hours!! I’ve listened to every book in this series- with two more to go- and the author changed this one up a bit with dual narration. It stunned me at first when Casteel spoke and low and behold it was a real guy! After the initial shock, I did really enjoy his voice. There’s been some Continue Reading
