Review: Wed to the Barbarian and The Barbarian’s Vow by Keira Andrews

November 10, 2021 by Angela 2 Comments

Wed to the Barbarian and The Barbarian's Vow by Keira AndrewsLGBTQ Fantasy RomanceSelf PublishedKindle Unlimited Review by Angela I first saw the covers for this series on Amazon while putting together the new release post for the week. And I would be lying if I said it wasn't the word barbarian in the title that first caught my attention. Everyone should know by now that I'm a sucker for a sexy barbarian romance. When I discovered this would be a duology and feature the same main Continue Reading

Review: The Perks of Loving a Wallflower by Erica Ridley

October 27, 2021 by Kate Leave a Comment

The Perks of Loving a Wallflower by Erica Ridley The Wild Wynchesters #2 Historical Romance October 26, 2021 by Forever Reviewed by Kate The Perks of Loving a Wallflower is a lovely historical romance with two female main characters. This is the second in The Wild Wynchesters series, but I do not think the first (The Duke Heist) is necessary to enjoy this one. I would recommend The Duke Heist, however, and reading it first may give the reader some additional context which could make this Continue Reading

Smexy Group Review: Archangel’s Light by Nalini Singh

October 26, 2021 by Angela 1 Comment

Archangel's Light by Nalini SinghGuild Hunter #14Paranormal Romance10/26/2021 by BerkleyARC Review by Angela, Melinda, and Melanie Angela: I remember a couple of years ago when Bluebell and Sparkle started having their spats and disagreements and there seemed to be something afoot with their relationship. Like this author was setting something up for later in the series for them to have this big, wonderful romance and I can tell you right now I was HERE FOR IT. Every review after that Continue Reading

Review: The Charm Offensive by Alison Cochrun

September 30, 2021 by Melinda 1 Comment

The Charm Offensive by Allison Cochrun Contemporary Romance September 7, 2021 by Atria Reviewed by Melinda This book completely snuck up on me, I hadn’t really heard much about it, but I’m so glad that I picked it up randomly because it’s going on my favorites of 2021 list for sure! The premise of the book is simple enough - man goes on a reality dating show to make his image better for business purposes, will he find love? But what follows is the star of the show falling for his producer Continue Reading

Review: Lights on Knockbridge Lane by Roan Parrish

September 27, 2021 by Melinda 6 Comments

Lights on Knckbridge Lane by Roan ParrishContemporary Romance9/28/2021 by HarlequinARC Review by Melinda I love almost every book Roan Parrish writes, and this book is no exception with a few quibbles here and there. There’s a lot to like about this couple, Adam’s daughter Gus, and the town. But it didn’t work everywhere for me, As the third book in the Garnet Run series, I did feel like it would be easy to read this as a standalone, which is always important from a new reader POV. But Continue Reading

Review: Under the Whispering Door by T.J. Klune

September 22, 2021 by Angela 1 Comment

Under the Whispering Door by TJ KluneLGBT Contemporary FantasySeptember 21, 2021, by Tor BooksARCReview by Angela Last year's The House in the Cerulean Sea was a warm, wonderful, gentle embrace with the softest romance and I positively adored it. My anticipation for Under the Whispering Door couldn't have been higher, I'm writing this review in May if that tells you anything. And I have to say I enjoyed it just as much, for different reasons, but still had that feeling of comfort when I read Continue Reading

Review: Tell Me Anything by Skye Kilaen

September 2, 2021 by Melinda Leave a Comment

Tell Me Anything by Skye KilaenContemporary RomanceSeptember 2, 2021, Self PublishedARC Reviewer: Melinda The absolute care Skye Kilaen takes with both her characters and her readers is incredibly apparent and it’s a beautiful thing to feel so...safe when reading. There are extensive content warnings at the beginning of this, which I appreciate so much. Isabel starts the book in a very bad space emotionally when she comes home from a 10-day trip only to find that her boyfriend had moved Continue Reading

Review: Our Favorite Songs by Anita Kelly

September 1, 2021 by Melinda Leave a Comment

Our Favorite Songs by Anitha Kelly Moonlighters #2 LGBT Contemporary Romance September 1, 2021 - Self Published ARC Reviewed by Melinda This is the second book in the Moonlighters series, both of which are centered around karaoke, which honestly cracks me up because that’s not something I associate with good times. But these books make me want to go to a karaoke bar immediately. This one has a different tone than the first one, Sing Anyway, and is more angsty, which was nice to see because Continue Reading

Review: What We May Be by Layla Reyne

August 16, 2021 by Angela 1 Comment

What We May Be by Layla ReyneLGBTQ Contemporary Romance/Romantic Suspense8/16/2021 Self PublishedARC Reviewed by Angela I ain't even gonna lie, I saw this cover and was IMMEDIATELY intrigued. I hadn't even read the blurb yet and I was already ready to jump right in. LOL. Okay, so then I finally read the blurb and discovered this was a throuple second chance romance and that pretty much sealed the deal. What We May Be starts off with a bang (literally), introducing its three main Continue Reading
