Book Review: Heal (White House Men #7) by Nora Phoenix

Read my reviews of the previous books in the White House Men series. Like many others, I anxiously awaited the final book in this amazing political romance series.

Book Review: Always Eli (Forever Love #1) by Charlie Novak

As the titular character, everything about Eli would have made it easy for him to overshadow everything about this romance. However, Novak is adept at character, which always brings her storytelling to the next level. Not only does Tristan’s solid sweetness function as more than a match for Eli’s sharper edges, but these men exist … Continue reading Book Review: Always Eli (Forever Love #1) by Charlie Novak

Book Review: Open Ice Hit (Sin Bin #1) by E.M. Lindsey & Marina Vivancos

I should state for the record that my mom grew up in Queens, but my best friend lives in Brooklyn, so I can't really choose sides between the Sea Dogs or the Phantoms. Two players from rival teams falling in love seems a bit cliché, except the fact that Tommy and Vicki aren't on the … Continue reading Book Review: Open Ice Hit (Sin Bin #1) by E.M. Lindsey & Marina Vivancos

Book Review: Without a Doubt (Love Starts Here #1) by E.M. Lindsey

This series is described as “light-hearted” in the cover description, and I suppose this book is when compared to other works by Lindsey. Carter is a cinnamon roll, and Rhys has the hard edges for them to mesh perfectly. However, both men carry a certain amount of emotional damage that doesn’t make a relationship easy, … Continue reading Book Review: Without a Doubt (Love Starts Here #1) by E.M. Lindsey

Book Review: Pretty Obsessed (Pretty Broken #1) by J.R. Gray

Rock star romances can be a mixed bag for me, but Gray had me at "cinnamon roll writer" and Emory and River's incredibly unique meet-cute. As their interactions progressed, Gray also provided me with one of my favorite tropes ever (idiots in love) as Emory and River both try to hide their (sometimes low-, sometimes … Continue reading Book Review: Pretty Obsessed (Pretty Broken #1) by J.R. Gray

Review: Forbidden: King (The Four #4) by Sloane Kennedy

This collection of excellent spin-offs from Kennedy’s amazing Protectors series comes full circle as we finally get the story of the last brother, King, and his “forbidden” romance with his (non-biological) nephew Gio. Years have passed since Gio’s rescue, but King has kept himself absent for most of them after doing all he can to … Continue reading Review: Forbidden: King (The Four #4) by Sloane Kennedy

Review: Scratcher (Irons and Works #7) by E.M. Lindsey

Read my reviews of the previous books in the Irons and Works series. I absolutely adored the Irons and Works series, and while it is definitely an author’s prerogative to state that a series is finished, I’m certainly not mad that Lindsey changed their mind about this one. We return to the Irons and Works … Continue reading Review: Scratcher (Irons and Works #7) by E.M. Lindsey

Read my reviews of the previous books in the Necessary Evils series: Unhinged (#1)Psycho (#2) Disclaimer: I received an electronic ARC of this novel from the author.
