Book Review: All I Fear (All’s Fair #2) by Abrianna Denae

Read my review of the first book in the All's Fair series, All I Want. Though this is not always true, the found-family nature of some series means that the books are so interconnected that they cannot stand alone. While I think this novel could be read and enjoyed without the broader context of the … Continue reading Book Review: All I Fear (All’s Fair #2) by Abrianna Denae

Book Review: On the Double (The Renegades #3) by Cara Dee

Read my reviews of previous books in The Renegades series: Rogue Launch (#1) | Enemy Combatant (#2) Reece, River, and Shay Tenley (affectionately known as “TenShay”) are some of my favorite Dee characters across her expansive, connected universe. I’d have read this stand-alone series even without the promise of a book concentrating on this trio, … Continue reading Book Review: On the Double (The Renegades #3) by Cara Dee

Book Review: Teach Me to Sin (Water, Air, Earth, Fire #4) by Riley Nash

I binge-read the first three books (and supplementary content) in this series in a single weekend, put the release date for the final book on my calendar, and anxiously counted down the days. Then, because I’m a lucky brat, the author was kind enough to send me an advanced copy! Which, of course, I promptly … Continue reading Book Review: Teach Me to Sin (Water, Air, Earth, Fire #4) by Riley Nash

Book Review: Luck of the Devil (Reckless Damned #4) by Lark Taylor

Read my reviews of previous books in the Reckless Damned series: Devil’s Mark (#1) | Devil May Care (#2) | Deal With the Devil (#3) Though this review is being posted long after the book launched, that’s because I’m fighting a backlog of reviews, not because I didn’t immediately dive into this series finale the day it was … Continue reading Book Review: Luck of the Devil (Reckless Damned #4) by Lark Taylor

Book Review: An Embrace to Hearten Me (Magi Accounts #3.5) by Michele Notaro

Book Review: The Magic That Binds (Haelan #1) by A.J. Sherwood

Sherwood launches an imaginative and immersive urban fantasy world with this series opener featuring a delightful mix of primary and secondary characters. I was immediately intrigued by the mystery of how Dag’s “magic” isn’t allowed in this setting, especially when he is blatantly on the side of good, but I was also excited for him … Continue reading Book Review: The Magic That Binds (Haelan #1) by A.J. Sherwood

Book Review: Split Rock Ranch Series by Rory Maxwell

This post includes reviews of the following books in the Split Rock Ranch series: Something Undeniable (#1) | Something Unexpected (#2) Something Undeniable (Split Rock Ranch Book 1) I’ve been shying away from age-gap romance stories lately, but this new author has been on my radar, and I didn’t mind diving into this one when … Continue reading Book Review: Split Rock Ranch Series by Rory Maxwell

Book Review: Day of Judgment (Virtuous Sinners) by Briar Kearney & Aurora Crane

The surface-level tropes were what originally attracted me to this book, but the deeper story and connections that developed between the characters drew me in completely. Even though it begins with a married couple in a long-term established dynamic, I found myself immediately invested in the external plot, which is much more than Justin taking … Continue reading Book Review: Day of Judgment (Virtuous Sinners) by Briar Kearney & Aurora Crane

Book Review: Wholly Trinity (Les’s Bar #3) by Jodi Payne & B.A. Tortuga

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, the … Continue reading Book Review: Wholly Trinity (Les’s Bar #3) by Jodi Payne & B.A. Tortuga

Book Review: Ignite (Ignite #1) by Nora Phoenix

Despite my love of this author’s works, I delayed reading this series because I burned out on dystopian/post-apocalyptic stories a few years ago. But I’m still a science-fiction geek at heart, bonus points if it involves aliens and alternate history, so I knew these books would eventually make it to the top of the queue. … Continue reading Book Review: Ignite (Ignite #1) by Nora Phoenix

Book Review: Shah Mat (Shattered Pawns #4) by Jennifer Cody

Read my reviews of the previous books set in this series/world: Diviner's Game series | Shattered Pawns series Some books are easy to review, no matter the genre. These things happened, the characters were like this, and this is how I felt about it. Some books, on the other hand, are the culmination of half … Continue reading Book Review: Shah Mat (Shattered Pawns #4) by Jennifer Cody

Book Review: Soft Hands (Sin Bin: West Coast #2) by E.M. Lindsey

Read my review of the first book in the Sin Bin: West Coast series, Breakaway Lindsey treats us to a few of my favorite tropes in the latest installment of their hockey romance series. Poly romance arcs are a particular favorite because it’s like getting multiple story arcs for the price of one, and as … Continue reading Book Review: Soft Hands (Sin Bin: West Coast #2) by E.M. Lindsey
