Review originally posted on 9/3/2018 by Angela. How to Dance an Undead Waltz by Hailey EdwardsBeginner’s Guide to Necromancy #4Urban FantasyAugust 22, 2018 Self Published Favorite Quote: Once upon a time, I had wanted to corrupt the boy next door. From here, the boy down the hall was looking ripe for debauching to me. Reviewed by Angela Before I get into my review I just want to say I can’t believe there are people who still haven’t started reading this series yet.  Continue Reading

Retro Review: Famous by Jenny Holiday

July 25, 2025 by Angela Leave a Comment

Review originally posted July 13, 2017 by Kini. FamousPublication Date: July 11, 2017Contemporary RomanceSelf-Published Reviewed by Kini Everyone knows her face. He knows her heart. Emerson Quinn is famous. Girls want to be her. Boys want to date her. Each record outsells the last. All that remains is to continue transitioning her brand from its teenage fan base to a more mature, diverse audience. So she’s under strict orders to play nice with her army of assigned co-songwriters Continue Reading

Retro Review: Moonshot by Alessandra Torre

July 11, 2025 by Angela Leave a Comment

Review originally posted by Mandi on 7/8/2016. Moonshot by Alessandra TorreReleased: July 5, 2016Contemporary/Light SuspenseSelf Published I read Hollywood Dirt last year and was really taken by this author’s writing style. Moonshot is different from Hollywood Dirt, for those familiar with her work. I really enjoyed Moonshot but I must warn that this book is not for everyone. Let me tell you why it may not be for you: 1. The hero is a professional baseball player. A Continue Reading

Retro Review: My Roommate’s Girl by Julianna Keyes

June 27, 2025 by Angela Leave a Comment

Review originally posted by Kini on 6/13/2017. My Roommate’s GirlPublication Date: June 12, 2017Contemporary/New Adult RomanceSelf Published The day a judge gave me the choice between going to prison or going to college was the day I vowed to stop stealing. Never again would I see something beautiful and beyond my means and take it, just because I wanted it. Just because I could. When I moved in with Jerry, it was with good intentions. I needed a place to live while I got my Continue Reading

Retro Review: The Viking Queen’s Men by Holley Trent

April 4, 2025 by Angela Leave a Comment

Review originally posted April 16, 2018 by Mandi at Smexy. The Viking Queen’s Men by Holley Trent (Afótama Legacy #1)Released: October 2014Paranormal M/F/MSelf Published Is there anything better than a book recommendation via Twitter? I love it when people are enthusiastic about a book. Thanks to Lillie, I saw her telling everyone to read this, and I hopped on that train. I didn’t even read the blurb – so imagine my surprise when this turned out to be a male/female/male Continue Reading

Review: Hunger in His Blood by Zoey Draven

April 2, 2025 by Angela 1 Comment

Hunger in His Blood by Zoey DravenBrides of the Kylorr #3Fantasy/Science Fiction RomanceApril 1, 2025- Self PublishedARC Review by Angela Look, I'm always, ALWAYS up for a new Zoey Draven book, but add in a rejected mate, surprise pregnancy storyline with angst, and lots of groveling by the MMC when he realizes he messed up and made the mistake of his life? Oh, hell yeah. And I'm not even a fan of the surprise baby trope. This book features Kaldur of House Kaalium, High Lord of Continue Reading

Retro Review: Sanctuary by Rebekah Weatherspoon

February 28, 2025 by Angela Leave a Comment

Review originally posted on September 7, 2017, by Mandi at Smexy. Sanctuary by Rebekah Weatherspoon (Beards and Bondage #2)Released: August 29, 2017Erotic BDSMSelf Published I quite enjoyed Haven, book one in this series earlier this year (both are stand alones) and Sanctuary was a hit for me as well. As in Haven, this book starts with quite a suspenseful scene. Our heroine, Liz, an attorney, who goes home one day after a long day of work, to find a man in her apartment, Continue Reading

Retro Review: Haven by Rebekah Weatherspoon

February 21, 2025 by Angela Leave a Comment

Review originally posted April 26, 2017 by Mandi at Smexy. Haven by Rebekah Weatherspoon (Beards & Bondage #1)Released: April 26, 2017BDSMSelf Published How can I pass up a series titled, Beards & Bondage?? What I liked most about this story is while it is erotic, and there is a beard, and there is some bondage, their courtship is presented so well. And the trauma and recovery the heroine goes through in this book felt so realistic. Claudia is from the city but goes Continue Reading

Review: In a Rush by Kate Canterbary

February 5, 2025 by Angela 1 Comment

In a Rush by Kate CanterbaryContemporary RomanceFebruary 4, 2025- Self PublishedARC Review by Angela Revenge husband for the win! It's always a good day when a new Kate Canterbary romance hits your Kindle. Stepping back into the world of Friendship, RI? Even better. This is a friends to lovers, he fell first, marriage of convenience, fake marriage romance, and while that seems like a lot of tropes- believe me, it works. This is the story of Emme Ahlborg, elementary school Continue Reading

Review: Only One Bed by Kati Wilde

January 23, 2025 by Angela 1 Comment

Only One Bed by Kati WildeContemporary RomanceJanuary 15, 2025- Self PublishedKindle Unlimited Review by Angela My first thought when I saw that a new Kati Wilde book was coming for the new year was...YAY! An enemies to lovers, forced proximity, only one bed romance was just what I needed. For the most part this book starts out just as expected- with the FMC, Abbie Walker, taking some time for herself, away from her suffocating family, celebrating Christmas alone in an isolated Continue Reading
