Review: Better Than People by Roan Parrish

August 27, 2020 by Melinda 1 Comment

Roan Parrish writes some of the best mental health rep there is in all of romance and Better Than People is no exception. The meet cute in this book is super cute as Jack has an accident in the beginning of this and needs to find someone to exercise is sizable dog pack - and one cat - for him. He finds Simon on an app where people are seeking pets to walk or cuddle because they can't have them for one reason or another. I liked this take on the app hookup idea. One of my only quibbles with Continue Reading

Smexy’s August TBR

August 3, 2020 by Angela 4 Comments

Angela- It's August! I mean it's still 2020, but at least we are inching toward the end of the year. YAY! I'm adding one book that will hit the last week of July to my list because we didn't do a TBR for July and I don't want anyone to forget it's release. Happy almost end of summer! Deal with the Devil (Mercenary Librarians #1) by Kit Rocha 7/28 Fantasy Romance - I practically begged for an ARC for this book, but just when it hit my Kindle I knew I had to hold on to it until the last Continue Reading

Review: Invitation to the Blues by Roan Parrish

April 17, 2018 by Helyce 4 Comments

Invitation to the Blues by Roan Parrish (Small Change #2) M/M Romance March 28, 2018 Self-Published Reviewed by Helyce Favorite Quote: “I’m not perfect. I don’t want you out of generosity. Or because I’m some kind of angel or savior. I want you because something inside you vibrates just so with something inside me.” I only recently found Roan Parrish and I’m so glad I did.  I read her Middle of Somewhere series and fell in love with the characters there.  I didn’t even know she’d Continue Reading

Review: Exposed: A Romance Anthology

March 21, 2018 by Kini Leave a Comment

Exposed: A Romance Anthology Contemporary Romance March 13, 2018 Self-Published Reviewed by Kini I picked up this antho because it had several authors that I have never read and I thought this would be a good introduction to their writing. I have been in a reading slump so reading short stories was kind of perfect for me. I only read four of the stories and will give a brief review below. All the stories have the same general theme. One of the characters has been chosen to participate Continue Reading

Review: Small Change by Roan Parrish

June 15, 2017 by admin Leave a Comment

Small Change by Roan Parrish (Small Change #1) Contemporary Romance Released: June 1, 2017 Self Published Reviewed by Tracey Blurb: Ginger Holtzman has fought for everything she’s ever had—the success of her tattoo shop, respect in the industry, her upcoming art show. Tough and independent, she has taking-no-crap down to an art form. Good thing too, since keeping her shop afloat, taking care of her friends, and scrambling to finish her paintings doesn’t leave time for anything else. Which Continue Reading

Review: Out of Nowhere by Roan Parrish

March 3, 2016 by Mandi 2 Comments

Out of Nowhere by Roan Parrish (Middle of Somewhere #2) Contemporary M/M Romance Released: February 29, 2016 Dreamspinner Press Reviewed by Mandi (Pssst - if you click the "preview" button above, you can read the first three chapters) Just last week I discovered this author and I've fallen in love with her voice. I was spoiled though - I read In the Middle of Somewhere and loved and then realized a second book was releasing just a few days later. Now I actually have to wait months Continue Reading
