DNF Review: In His Command by Rie Warren
In His Command by Rie Warren (Don’t Tell #1) Released: August 6, 2013 Futuristic M/M Forever Reviewed by Mandi I was very interested in reading this book, as I’m all for the big publishers publishing GBLT romance. Unfortunately, this romance did not work for me at all. I actually ended up putting this book down at the 60% mark and not picking it back up again. This book takes place in the future, I believe 2070. There has been The Purge, then The Plague and the vast majority of Continue Reading

The Marriage in Trouble Trope
I love, love, love a marriage in trouble trope in a romance book. It’s different. It’s not hero/heroine meets hero/heroine, flirt, court, say I love you. No. These two are already in love but circumstances have either forced them apart, or lack of communication has driven them to feel alone. And now we get to see how they put it all back together again, which can be even more sexy than new love. In a marriage in trouble trope, the couple knows how to love to each other, but sometimes they have Continue Reading
