Review: In Tune Out of Sync by Kate Forest
In Tune Out of Sync by Kate Forest Contemporary Romance October 5, 2017 Self Published Reviewed by Helyce I was incredibly intrigued at the prospect of a story where both protagonists suffer from such different disorders.

Review: Remedial Rocket Science by Susannah Nix
Remedial Rocket Science by Susannah Nix Romantic Comedy/Adult August 21, 2017 Self Published Reviewed by Kini I was looking forward to this book, as it features as STEM focused heroine. I was willing to look past the fact that the hero is a billionaire. The blurb references being similar to Penny Reid, Sally Thorne, and Jennifer Crusie all of whom are authors of books I have loved. This book really fell short of my expectations. It wasn’t terrible, but it didn’t wow me with its brilliance Continue Reading
