Review: Making a Mark (Triskelion #2) by Jodi Payne & B.A. Tortuga
Read my review of Breaking the Rules (Triskelion #1) Disclaimer: I received an advanced electronic ARC of this novel from the author. The first book in this planned trilogy introduced me to an amazing author pairing and lived rent-free in my brain for the entire summer. I put off re-reading…

Review: Breaking the Rules (Triskelion #1) by Jodi Payne & B. A. Tortuga
This book is the first I’ve read by either of these authors, and I immediately spent the next few days reading more of their work after finishing this one. I already knew going into this title that I enjoy romance that includes power dynamics and age gaps—the fact that this…

Review: Dual Surrender (Duality #2) by Kate Hawthorne
Read my review of the first book in the Duality series, Dual Destruction. Hawthorne mentioned on social media that this was a difficult book to write, and part of me worried that this book would not mesh, thematically, with the previous installment of this trilogy. It features an established couple,…

Review: Hell’s Bedroom Series by Tanya Chris
Kitchen Sink Dom (Book 1) Knowing some of the backstory of how this book developed made it even more entertaining: Chris asked for kink suggestions in a social media group and did her best to incorporate as many as possible. What might have been a disjointed connection of sex scenes…

Review: Camassia Cove Universe by Cara Dee
This post includes reviews of the books in the Camassia Cove Universe series. I’m reading them in a weird mix of the order listed on Amazon and the author’s recommended reading order on her website. Home Out Out for the Holidays Noah Power Play Sleepless Home I’m pretty solid at…

Review: Arden St. Ives Series by Alexis Hall
How to Bang a Billionaire (Book 1) Young billionaire connects with college student (or is it the other way around?), and they develop a relationship that relies more on physical chemistry than romantic gestures. Despite the sexy moments of this story, the main draw for powering through this book is…

Review: A Cold Hard Truth (Real Good Lie #2) by Kate Hawthorne
Read my review of the previous book, A Real Good Lie. Disclaimer: I received an ARC of this ebook, though I had fully intended to buy myself a copy if I had not had this opportunity for an early review. Based on the initial interactions between Remington and Sebastian toward…

Review: Middleman by Jane Rylon
I snagged this book because it ticked all the boxes of my latest favorite reads, but especially because an author that I adore mentioned reading it in her online fan group. Though I spent extra money on it because it was not available on Kindle Unlimited, I don’t regret the…

Review: Inferno Series by J. R. Gray
Clouded Hell (Book 1) This book is not a dark romance, though it gets pretty dark at times. Not because of the kinks between the main characters, but simply because of the worlds of organized crime and underground fighting they’re involved with. It’s immediately clear, however, that Remi and Dante…

Review: No Surrender (No Regrets #1) by Nora Phoenix
This book is the first spinoff to the No Shame series by the same author. I’m pretty sure it can be read as a stand-alone, but I both highly recommend it and think that readers who enjoy this book will likely also enjoy going back to read those books as…

Review: Lust & Longing by E.M. Denning
It takes strong characterization to create two characters in a single scene and have me believe they’re meant to be together forever—and then split them up for 20 years. It takes even stronger characterization for me to stick with the point-of-view character over those 20 years when he’s kind of…

Review: Truth by His Hand by Casey Cameron
A friend recently complained to me that she has a hard time finding kinky fiction that dives into the point of view of the submissive character rather than the dominant partner. I didn’t set out to find a book that proves her wrong, but I’m so pleased that I stumbled…

Review: Ever After Series by Tanya Chris
Aftercare (Book 1) I can’t remember the last time I was so engrossed by a legal thriller. As a bonus, Chris also sucked me into the burgeoning romance between Garrett and Aayan. Usually, in these kinkier romances, it’s the Dom introducing a potential sub to the lifestyle. Here, it’s the…

Review: The Boy Series by J.A. Rock & Lisa Henry
The Good Boy (Book 1) From the back cover description, I expected this to be a short book with a meet-cute, some kinky fun, and maybe a bit of a low-angst dark moment before the happily ever after. Instead, I got a solid romance arc, fascinating and three-dimensional main and…
