The Beautiful Ones by Silvia Moreno- GarciaHistorical Romance/FantasyRepub- 04/27/2021 by Tor I'm pretty sure every book I've picked up by this author has been completely different. A mix of genres, a mix of tropes, you just never know what you'll get. The Beautiful Ones is what I would describe as a historical romance with a dash of fantasy. This is at its heart a love story. Hector Auvray has come to the city after a decade to win back the heart of the women he desperately loves. Only Continue Reading

Smexy’s March TBR
Angela- Remember last month when I said I had a gazillion books to read this month? I was totally serious. For some reason a crap ton of great books release every March (which also happens to be my birthday month) and every March I overload myself on ARCs I simply must have. Here are just a few of the books I'm most anticipating this month. 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 Tuesday ARC Reviews: Amy Harmon, Hailey Edwards, and Lorraine Heath
The First Girl Child by Amy HarmonFantasyAugust 20, 2019 by 47NorthARC This was a very different book than the previous fantasy releases I've read by this author. I would say that I was expecting more of a romance based fantasy and what I got was more of an epic fantasy with romance woven in. Still overwhelmingly lovely and beautifully written, just not exactly what I was expecting. The First Girl Child is a story of love, power, greed, selflessness, and honor. When a young battle Continue Reading
