Five-Star Reads for October 2024
Note: Reviews are listed alphabetically by author’s last name. Xerxes Descendant Adelaide Blaike (House Epsilon #1) The short version of this review basically boils down to “insert screaming and flailing here.” This author knows that I’m extremely picky about my speculative fiction, so I considered it an honor that she…

Five-Star Reads for June 2024
All In Kate Hawthorne (Trophy Doms New York #1) If my favorite recurring theme of Hawthorne’s writing is the depiction of kink and power dynamics beyond the simple trappings of a scene, a close runner-up is her nontraditional villain redemption arcs. After all, Kale is never a villain in Dalton…

Book Review: Recalling My Demon (Possessive Love) by Colette Davison
Read my review of another book in the Possessive Love collection, My Saintly Demon by R.M. Neill. The idea of an ex-priest explaining kink to a demon should be absurd. As an author, Davison is exactly the blend of spicy and sweet necessary to make it adorable instead. The story…

Book Review: Lessons in Chemistry by Colette Davison
I was warned a few times before I was offered an advanced copy of this book that this was not the typical “MMM” story like most of those I’d read previously in the genre. Since I am all about unexpected stories, especially those that push at genre tropes, I still…

Book Review: Take the Plunge by Colette Davison
Limited new ways exist to start a novel, regardless of genre, and contemporary fiction is even more constrained in options. “Waking up hungover and handcuffed to my best friend’s little brother while stranded in the middle of the woods” is pretty unique, especially when for the beginning of a contemporary…

Book Review: Getting Signed (Model Love) by Colette Davison
Read my review of a previous book in the Model Love series, Couture Crush by Charlie Novak Davison’s entry into this shared-world series is another sweet, low-angst story. Pretty much everything about this tale of an aspiring model falling for his best friend’s brother was predictable, and I say that…

This post includes reviews of the books in the Alphabet of Desire series: A is for Aftercare (#1) B is for Beg (#2) C is for Comfort (#3) A is for Aftercare (Book 1) This book was a relatively low-angst read, but that doesn’t mean Davison skimps on any of…

Review: One Room at the Inn by Colette Davison
A freak snowstorm the night before Christmas results in a surprise gift for three friends who reunite when forced to take shelter. Ellis, Zev, and PK were besties in high school but lost touch over time as those growing up are wont to do. However, as it says on the…

Review: I Wished For You by Collette Davison
I needed something relatively fluffy and lower on the angst spectrum after reading a somewhat dark romantic trilogy, and this stand-alone novel fit the bill nicely. Seb, Matt, and Connor have been best friends since childhood, and the book is pretty much exactly as described—a lovely romance about the three…
