Book Review: Tending Tyler (Lone Star #1) by Jodi Payne & B.A. Tortuga
I’ve thoroughly enjoyed so much by these authors that it should come as no shock to anyone how sweet I found this book as well. We start in familiar territory (with a special shout-out to one of my favorite subby cowboys), but then this book becomes a major departure from…

Book Review: Bound to Fall by Jaime Samms
The easiest takeaway from this book to start this review is that it is extremely long—but it’s one of those stories that supports its weight and deserves every scene. The most difficult takeaway is that this is truly a tale of redemption, like it says on the tin. Redemption is…

Book Review: Doll Parts (The Game #4) by Cara Dee
Read my reviews of the previous books in The Game series: Top Priority (#1) Their Boy (#2) Breathless (#3) This book is a very different type of story from the previous installments in this series, but it definitely follows the same theme Dee laid out from the very beginning. Love…

Book Review: The Trouble With Trying to Date a Murderer (Murder Sprees & Mute Decrees #1) by Jennifer Cody
I wasn’t sure what I was getting into this book. The cover is typical romance fare, but I went in with a burning curiosity to identify the nicknames and a willingness to embrace a dark comedy. What I got was a delightful paranormal romance featuring a narrator who swept me…

Read my reviews of the previous books in the Two Truths and a Lie series: A Real Good Lie (#1) A Cold Hard Truth (#2) Disclaimer: I received an electronic ARC of this novel from the author. Though I enjoy both plot- and character-driven fiction, one of my favorite elements of storytelling,…

Book Review: Devil’s Dance (Rebel Kings MC #1) by Garrett Leigh
Is it possible for a motorcycle club (MC) president to be a cinnamon roll? If Cam had been born into any other life, he absolutely would be. Even the sharp edges he does have due to his position are there more for automatic defense than because he has any desire…

This post includes reviews of books in the Spires series: Glitterland (#1) Waiting for the Flood (#2) For Real (#3) Glitterland (Spires #1) There’s a difference between being mentally ill and being an asshole, but it’s still entirely possible to be both. By the time I was a third of…

Book Review: Finding Finn (Forever Love #2) by Charlie Novak
Read my review of the first book in the Forever Love series, Always Eli. It’s a pretty universal fact that it’s always the quiet ones you have to watch out for. The character of Finn already interested me because he appeared to be an adorable, anxiety-ridden cinnamon roll from the…

Book Review: Extradition (Mobsters + Billionaires #1) by Kelly Fox
Kelly Fox lulled me into a pattern of books set in Texas only to blow me out of the water with her depiction of New York City. Like it says on the tin, mobsters and billionaires are a departure from her previous works, but this author’s grasp on inherent human…

Book Review: Spring of the Wolf (Seasons of the Lukoi #2) by Iris Foxglove
Read my review of the first Seasons of the Lukoi novel, Winter of the Owl. Every time I think I can’t possibly enjoy the world of this epic fantasy romance series more, the author(s) uncover another stunning layer. In the first book of this series, we’re introduced to the culture…

Book Review: Mountain Topped by K.M. Neuhold & Mia Monroe
Sometimes there’s a limit to how many genre tropes you can cram into one book. However, there’s a difference between “too many” and “just enough combined in the right way.” Neuhold and Monroe strike the perfect balance in this book with three unique and compelling characters who also balance each…

Book Review: Winter of the Owl (Seasons of the Lukoi #1) by Iris Foxglove
I came to this series because I’d previously read the Starian Cycle books by the same author, though I did not review them for my blog. Foxglove has created a truly expansive world in that it is not necessary to read the previous books to appreciate anything about this story.…

Book Review: Shades of Winter (For Everything a Season #1) by E.M. Lindsey
Lindsey is officially the only author I know who can write a “low-angst” book that still leaves me absolutely aching for the characters. Liam and Dante shouldn’t work together, which of course means that they absolutely do. I adored the way this story switches up the traditional bodyguard trope formula…

Book Review: Texas Detour by Kelly Fox
This novella is available as a free download via Prolific Works as part of the Your Book Boyfriend’s Boyfriend M/M Romance Group Giveaway 2022. I think it’s become part of the official regulations that it’s not a Kelly Fox book unless you’re laughing out loud one moment and then crying two pages…

Book Review: Shades of Lust (Carnal Tower #1) by E.M. Lindsey
Disclaimer: I received an electronic ARC of this novel from the author. Once again, Lindsey has written a low angst book that doesn’t stint on being packed with feels. Low angst doesn’t mean low emotion, after all, and this author is adept at teasing out the connections between characters that…
