Fox writes her morally gray characters so well that I wasn’t surprised to learn she’d been invited to take part in this multi-author series. This novella was easy to read in a single sitting, featuring plenty of the author’s patented “murder swoon.” On the surface, Wilhelm and Nigel are stereotypical hitman types, even if theyContinue reading “Book Review: Liar’s Gambit (The Elite) by Kelly Fox”

Book Review: Uprooted (Florae #1) by Erica Montrose
I’m always on the lookout for new concepts in fiction, especially in the genres I already enjoy. Montrose packs a double dose of surprise to create a truly unique premise in this novella-length introduction to the world of her new paranormal romance series. Because this is a shorter book, the romance story line is slightlyContinue reading “Book Review: Uprooted (Florae #1) by Erica Montrose”

Read my reviews of previous books in the Rebel Sky Ranch series: Goodnight (#1) | Sparrow (#2) | Navarro (#3) | Warwick (#4) There seems to be a default assumption that holiday-themed romances have to be sweet, but Fox sees this assumption, packs a ton of sweetness into this novella, and then raises the spice level off the chartsContinue reading “Book Review: Unwrapping Christmas (Rebel Sky Ranch #4.5) by Kelly Fox”

Book Review: Pieces of Silver (Starian Tale) by Iris Foxglove
This novella works best if you’ve read the main Starian Cycle series of novels, mostly for the identities and relationships between all of the secondary characters who make up the Starian royal family, their consorts, and their important officials. However, the narrators for this particular story are the palace guard captain and royal tailor, whichContinue reading “Book Review: Pieces of Silver (Starian Tale) by Iris Foxglove”
