Read my reviews of the previous books in the Les’s Bar series: Just Dex (#1) | Hide Bound (#2) Many books by this author pair fall into the “comfort read” category for me, especially because of the fascinating intersection of city versus cowboy, power exchange, and surprising external story elements. While always coming from unique characters, theContinue reading “Book Review: Wholly Trinity (Les’s Bar #3) by Jodi Payne & B.A. Tortuga”

Book Review: What He Learns (Desires: New Beginnings #1) by E.M. Denning
This book launches a spin-off collection of stand-alone romances in a previous series. Though I’ve read the earlier books, I’m pretty sure this one works well in isolation, with some previous main characters appearing as strong secondary characters here, not just as treat cameos for loyal readers. Denning introduces the world and the new heroesContinue reading “Book Review: What He Learns (Desires: New Beginnings #1) by E.M. Denning”
Book Review: A Purpose That Restores Us (Magi Accounts #3) by Michele Notaro
Read my reviews of previous books in the Magi Accounts series: Our Hearts That Tie Us (#0.5) | The Scars That Bind Us (#1) | A Kiss to Revive Me (#1.5) | The Shackles That Hold Us (#2) | A Date to Impress Him (#2.5) This fascinating urban fantasy world Notaro has created is an interesting dichotomy of how thingsContinue reading “Book Review: A Purpose That Restores Us (Magi Accounts #3) by Michele Notaro”

Book Review: Rookie Mistake (On the Board #1) by Anna Zabo & L.A. Witt
For some reason, hockey romances are one of the few “sports romance” categories I can stand. Something about the typical attitudes and personalities of hockey players makes them more palatable than those of other sports players, and perhaps because it’s a sport I know just enough to be interested in but not enough to beContinue reading “Book Review: Rookie Mistake (On the Board #1) by Anna Zabo & L.A.

Book Review: Oh So Oscar (Forever Love #3) by Charlie Novak
Read my reviews of the previous books in the Forever Love series: Always Eli (#1) Finding Finn (#2) This book gives the final son of the sprawling combined family that has threaded its way into every corner of Novak’s shared book universe his happily ever after. So far, Oscar’s travel-writer lifestyle (and London home base) means thatContinue reading “Book Review: Oh So Oscar (Forever Love #3) by Charlie Novak”
Book Review: Waiting on Forever (Carnal Tower #2) by E.M. Lindsey
Read my review of the first book in the Carnal Tower series, Shades of Lust. One of the similarities between this book and the first in the series that I noticed, which may or may not be a trend for the rest of the books, is that the heat level is very much on theContinue reading “Book Review: Waiting on Forever (Carnal Tower #2) by E.M. Lindsey”
Book Review: Summer of the Wanderer (Seasons of the Lukoi #3) by Iris Foxglove
Read my reviews of the previous books in the Seasons of the Lukoi series: Winter of the Owl (#1) Spring of the Wolf (#2) I know that I say this in each review, but this series keeps getting better with every installment. In this book, we leave Lukos and venture to yet another new countryContinue reading “Book Review: Summer of the Wanderer (Seasons of the Lukoi #3) by Iris Foxglove”
Book Review: Sherwood by Sierra Simone
At the time this blog post is published, this novella is available for free. Simone’s New Camelot series wrecked me as a reader in all the best ways, often leaving me in tears and leading to some virtual flailing at a fellow fan via text. The journey was worth every bit of the angst, andContinue reading “Book Review: Sherwood by Sierra Simone”
Book Review: Rearranged (Do-Over #1) by E.M. Denning
One of the best things about following an author on social media is getting to experience the full evolution of a story, from conception to publication. I followed along as Denning mentioned binge-reading all the arranged marriage trope romances she could find and then as she spoke about writing her own. So, it was prettyContinue reading “Book Review: Rearranged (Do-Over #1) by E.M. Denning”
