Review: Meik & Sebastian (Obsessed #1 & #2) by Quin Perin
Let’s get the obvious out of the way first: This is not a love story. Like the title says, this is one character lusting after another, both metaphorically and physically. Straight-up erotica and pretty much what it says on the tin.

Review: Escaping Solitude (Escape #2) by Sara Dobie Bauer
Disclaimer: I received an ebook in exchange for an honest review. The moment I finished part one of the Escape Trilogy, Escaping Exile, I was already clamoring to the author that I needed part two right away. Of course, having completed part two, I’m begging for the conclusion immediately. While some…

Review: Counterpoint (Twisted Wishes #2) by Anna Zabo
Disclaimer: I am friends with the author; however, I purchased this ebook for full price. My favorite thing about this series is that it doesn’t follow the traditional romance script. While the story is inherently about the evolving relationship between two characters, the big climactic moment is not the two…

Review: The Flame (1001 Dark Nights/Desire Exchange novella) by Christopher Rice
Often novellas either feel like a padded-out short story or a rushed novel. This was neither, giving all the background detail between each of the three main characters necessary to make the next step in their relationship feel natural and inevitable. Additionally, the supernatural element of the story blended seamlessly…

Review: Escaping Exile (Escape #1) by Sara Dobie Bauer
Disclaimer: I consider the author a friend; I received an electronic advanced reader copy in exchange for an honest review. The first thing you notice about this novella is the vibrant narrative voice. You learn everything you need to know about the main character and his circumstances within the first…

Review: “The Unexpected Infatuation” by Sara Dobie Bauer
Disclaimer: I consider the author a friend; however, I purchased this short story ebook for full price. I wasn’t sure about this short story at first. I’m not keen on the idea of anyone cheating in a relationship, nor do I particularly find the “gay for you” trope appealing. The…

Review: Lord & Master (The Billionaires #3) by Emma Holly
I had a great time reconnecting with my favorite trio, but this book threw me for a bit of a loop. Not in a bad way, whatsoever. But it was a distinctly different sort of story than its predecessor. Part of what I loved about Beck & Call was that the…

Review: Beck & Call (The Billionaires #2) by Emma Holly
I think it’s a testament to how engrossing I found this book that I didn’t realize the title was a play on two of the main characters’ names until over halfway through reading the story. I read this book on the recommendation of a blogger that I enjoy who talks…

Review: The Billionaire Bad Boys Club (The Billionaires #1) by Emma Holly
So much for taking a break from the romance and erotica books! This read (and probably the subsequent reads in the series) was inspired by a blog post by author Cara McKinnon, where she discussed how one of her romance pet peeves is three-way relationships where there’s only a real…

Review: Lights, Camera, Cupid! (Bluewater Bay #6)
“Just Another Day” by L.A. Witt: I loved this quick check-in with our first Bluewater Bay couple, actors Carter and Levi. Levi is his usual cantankerous and loveable self, Carter is still too perfect for words, and I’d be jealous of those cats if I didn’t own three ridiculous Siamese…

Review: Outside the Lines (Bluewater Bay #22) by Anna Zabo
Disclaimer: I am friends with the author of this novel; however, I purchased the ebook for full price. My metric for how I view a good romance novel has turned into whether the interpersonal relationships are occurring between mature adults. I don’t have time for whiny teenage angst produced by…

Review: DAILY GRIND (Takeover #4) by Anna Zabo
Disclaimer: I consider the author a friend and have promoted her projects on my blog. However, I purchased this ebook for full price. This novel was sweeter than the others in the series, but certainly no less hot for it. Brian and Rob go through a much more traditional meet-cute…

Review: DUE DILIGENCE (Takeover #3) by Anna Zabo
Disclaimer: I consider the author a friend and have promoted her projects on my blog. However, I purchased this ebook for full price. This next novel ties into the Takeover series by featuring one of the engineers in Sam’s new consulting firm. While it was lovely to be reunited with…

Review: JUST BUSINESS (Takeover #2) by Anna Zabo
Disclaimer: I consider the author a friend and have promoted her projects on my blog. However, I purchased this ebook for full price. Probably the best praise I can give this novel is that I meant to read a chapter or two before bed and when I looked up, my…

Review: TAKEOVER by Anna Zabo
Disclaimer: I consider the author a friend and have promoted her projects on my blog. However, I purchased this ebook for full price. I’ve had this book on my Kindle forever, and while had previously read and greatly enjoyed another novel by Zabo, I wasn’t sure whether my love of…

Review: A THEFT OF MAGIC (Fay of Skye #2) by Cara McKinnon
Disclaimer: I consider the author a friend, and the two of us have worked together to help promote each other’s work as nontraditional authors. I won a hardcopy version of this novel from the author in a random giveaway drawing during a social media launch event. I would absolutely have…
