I actually read the spin-off of this series, The Ever Seas, earlier this year and really enjoyed. I've always read a lot of fantasy and romantic fantasy which means I am positively delighted by this romantasy trend. Not all the choices available in Kindle Unlimited are well written or even unique, but occasionally I'll hit on a few gems. I didn't realize The Ever Seas series was a spin-off until I got quite a bit into the first book, but I immediately went to the author's page and did a little Continue Reading

Review: The Lovely Dark Anthology
The Lovely Dark: A Monster Romance AnthologyParanormal Romance/Fantasy RomanceApril 23, 2024- Self PublishedPurchased- Available in Kindle Unlimited Review by Angela Wave Song by Emma Hamm I've circled around this author on Amazon when looking up fantasy or paranormal romance. I figured this would be the perfect time to see if her writing appealed to me. This is a merman/human fantasy romance, set in a dystopian type of world. The FMC, Alys, meets the MMC while traveling under Continue Reading
Review: Lore of the Wilds by Analeigh Sbrana
Lore of the Wilds by Analeigh SbranaFantasy RomancePublished February 27, 2024- Harper Voyager Reviewed by Kate I so wanted Lore of the Wilds to be a slam dunk, and while there are certainly parts of the book that I loved, I don’t think that as a cohesive whole it was as good as it could have been. The first 40% or so of Lore of the Wilds was the best part of the book. Lore was exploring the library, figuring out the fae and trying to make sense of the world around her. This part was Continue Reading
Review: Archangel’s Lineage by Nalini Singh
Archangel's Lineage by Nalini SinghGuild Hunter #16PNR/Fantasy RomanceApril 23, 2024 by BerkleyARC Review by Angela I was so happy to get back to where it all started--with Elena and Raphael. I still vividly remember the first book, where they met, fell in love, and that scene when Raphael fell with Elena in his arms. Giving her a renewed life, one as consort at his side. A decade has passed since the great upheaval and war with the evil archangel who will not be named. The world Continue Reading
Review: Silk & Sand by Katherine Diane
Silk & Sand by Katherine Diane (Book 1)Fantasy, LGBTQ+ RomanceKindle editionMarch 7, 2024 Review by Kate H. This book has tension. Tension between different personalities. Circumstantial tension. Loads of sexual tension. And on top of that, plot tension. And, if you don’t realize it’s going to end on cliffhanger, it might just rip out your heart and stomp it on the floor. But the tension is developed so artfully. And, next thing we Continue Reading
Review: A River of Golden Bones by A.K. Mulford
A River of Golden Bones by A.K. MulfordPublished on December 5, 2023 by Harper VoyagerFantasy RomanceReviewed by Kate I was attracted to A River of Golden Bones because of the fairy tale elements to the story - the sleeping curse, a princess named Briar, you know, the usual. Once I got into it though, I realized that there was so much more to love about the book. It’s one of those books that just sucks you in and makes you want to keep reading into the night. Please note, for Continue Reading

Angela’s KU Update!
I saw a rec for this series on Twitter (I refuse to call it X) and since I'm always on the lookout for new, science fiction/PNR I hit that read now button. And I then gobbled up the whole series in a couple of days. Yes, these are orc romances, but they aren't the usual alpha male, "Oh, no I've been abducted by the enemy", dubious consent orc romances. These are charming love stories, with caring and protective orc/human pairings. Each couple faces certain hardships they have to Continue Reading
