I figured out pretty quickly that my reading tastes don’t necessarily run to the typical mafia romance conceits, in which the suave, capable mob guy swoops in to save (in whatever capacity) the other main character. However, I was more than willing to take a chance on this subgenre in the hands of one ofContinue reading “Book Review: Rapture by E.M. Lindsey”

Book Review: Savior Complex (Wild Heart Ranch #3) by Kelly Fox
Read my reviews of previous books in the Wild Heart Ranch series: Sworn Enemy (#1) | Good Behavior (#2) In a series that has multiple ties between the books but which the author also kind of wants to offer as a stand-alone, it can be difficult to set the scene for readers. Fox solves the problem hereContinue reading “Book Review: Savior Complex (Wild Heart Ranch #3) by Kelly Fox”
Book Review: Pole Position (Lights Out) by Charlie Novak
I’m jumping into this multi-author shared world series in the “middle,” starting with this book, since I was privileged to receive an advance copy from this author. I’m not much of a sports romance reader unless it’s hockey or rodeo, but I found that F1 racing hits that same sweet spot of being a teamContinue reading “Book Review: Pole Position (Lights Out) by Charlie Novak”
Book Review: A Mage’s Guide to Wicky (R’iyah Family Archives #3) by A.J. Sherwood
Read my reviews of the previous books in the R’iyah Family Archives series: A Mage’s Guide to Human Familiars (#1) | A Mage’s Guide to Aussie Terrors (#2) As much as I love the main trio that has been the focus of the first two books in this series, Wicky is such an enjoyable secondary character thatContinue reading “Book Review: A Mage’s Guide to Wicky (R’iyah Family Archives #3) by A.J. Sherwood”
Book Review: This Will Hurt II by Cara Dee
Read my review of the previous book in this duology, This Will Hurt I. The first book in this set didn’t end on an explicit cliffhanger so much as a hinge moment in these main characters’ lives. I adore being an advanced reader for this author, but the downside was definitely the wait between installmentsContinue reading “Book Review: This Will Hurt II by Cara Dee”
Book Review: What They Deserve (Desires: New Beginnings #3) by E.M. Denning
Read my reviews of previous books in the Desires: New Beginnings series: What He Learns (#1) | What He Finds (#2) I’ll be honest; I didn’t love Jade after meeting them as a secondary character earlier in this series. In retrospect, I’m not even sure I can tell you why. Jade certainly did not “owe” anything toContinue reading “Book Review: What They Deserve (Desires: New Beginnings #3) by E.M. Denning”
Book Review: Heaven’s River (Bobiverse #4) by Dennis E. Taylor
Read my reviews of the previous books in the Bobiverse series: We Are Legion (We Are Bob) (#1) | For We Are Many (#2) | All These Worlds (#3) The previous three books in this series work as a complete trilogy, but life doesn’t stop when the curtain closes. The versions of Bob that we’re most familiar withContinue reading “Book Review: Heaven’s River (Bobiverse #4) by Dennis E. Taylor”
Book Review: Conduit Crisis (Ghostly Guardians #3) by Louisa Masters
Read my reviews of the previous books in the Ghostly Guardians series: Spirited Situation (#1) | Vortex Conundrum (#2) Though each book in this series features a brand-new romantic connection, the overarching plot means that this is not a series of stand-alone novels set in the same world. For this installment, the external plot we’ve been followingContinue reading “Book Review: Conduit Crisis (Ghostly Guardians #3) by Louisa Masters”
Book Review: Paladin (Jericho’s Boys #1) by Onley James
I count myself among the readers who were thrilled when James announced she would be returning to the world of her Necessary Evils series with a spin-off featuring the “murder muppets” introduced in Moonstruck. Jericho is now a Mulvaney by marriage, which means the band of strays in their early 20s had to come alongContinue reading “Book Review: Paladin (Jericho’s Boys #1) by Onley James”
Book Review: Pretty Wreck (Pretty Broken #3) by J.R. Gray
Read my reviews of previous books in the Pretty Broken series: Pretty Obsessed (#1) | Pretty Toxic (#2) This book features the, to this point, least-known member of the band to readers. Gray sets us up to immediately care about Alister as much as the others, however, since this book opens with him close to rock bottom.Continue reading “Book Review: Pretty Wreck (Pretty Broken #3) by J.R.
