Review: Moorewood Family Rules by HelenKay Dimon

April 27, 2023 by Angela 3 Comments

Moorewood Family RulesWomen's FictionApril 25, 2023- AvonARC Review by Angela I'm not sure what I expected when I picked this book up, and after having read it I still don't know what genre it should be classified under. Maybe WF? Maybe like WF with a touch of mystery? I'm not really sure. I will say this is a fast, fun, light read even with the darker elements that are layered in. When the book first opens it introduces Jillian Moorewood, fresh out of prison and surprising her Continue Reading

Review: Pretty Little Wife by Darby Kane

December 23, 2020 by Melinda 2 Comments

Pretty Little Wife by Darby KaneSuspense12/29/2020 by William Morrow Review by Melinda My second most-read genre is suspense or thrillers after romance but I generally only read those written by women because I got tired of reading violence against women written by men. A delightful micro-subgenre (totally making this up here lol) is thrillers written by romance authors. We have Victoria Dahl writing as Victoria Helen Stone, Nalini Singh, and now HelenKaye Dimon writing as Darby Kane. Continue Reading

June 27, 2019 by Kini Leave a Comment

Her Other Secret, by HelenKay Dimon is out now! Is it the perfect escape? Whitaker Island is more than a getaway. For Tessa Jenkins, the remote strip of land in Washington state is a sanctuary. Fleeing from a shattering scandal, she has a new name, a chance at a new beginning, and a breathtaking new view: Hansen Rye. It’s hard not to crush on Whitaker’s hottest handyman. At six-foot-three and all kinds of fine, he’s also intensely private—and the attraction between them soon simmers Continue Reading

Angela’s Tuesday Thoughts: Kingdom of Exiles and Her Other Secret

June 25, 2019 by Angela Leave a Comment

Kingdom of Exiles by Maxym M. MartineauThe Beast Charmer #1Fantasy RomanceJune 25, 2019 by Sourcebooks Casablanca KINDLE * BN * GOODREADS I love the concept of this series. Whomever described it as "Assassin's Creed meets Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" was spot on. The heroine is an exiled Beast Charmer and the hero is an assassin who is hired to kill her. They team up instead, (or do they?) when Leena barters four of her beasts in exchange for her life. This was a good, Continue Reading

Jane’s days at a Midwest insurance company are perfectly ordinary. She blends in well, unremarkably pretty in her floral-print dresses Continue Reading
